1. Jennifer S.
“My pup has the best day with Jennifer at her lovely home. He got to play with her dogs, zoom in her huge back yard, and had a wonderful time. Jennifer sent us great pics of him having a blast while he was there. All around great experience for us and we hope our pup gets to come play for the day again soon!”
2. Mika T.
“Mika and Koji were great with Wicket. We received plenty of pics throughout the day and he looked happy (and pampered). While we were in Vancouver BC our car broke down and had to pick up our dog about 90 minutes late. Mika and Koji were very understanding and reassuring.”
3. Tami T.
“Tami was fantastic. By coincidence, the first day we took our dog to Tami's place, there had been several inches of snow the night before. There was a small hill on the way to her house thaty sedan wasn't able to handle in those conditions. I let her know we were having trouble getting to her, and she drove out to meet us. Then she did the same when we came to pick our pup up from her. Really went the extra mile for us, and it was very much appreciated. Our dog came home happy and tired, and we'll definitely be going to Tami again in the future.”

8. Liza G.
“Liza is absolutely well-qualified to take care of your pets! She is kind, dependable, and you can tell she really loves what she does and the animals that she cares for.

9. Carol S.
“Carol Sheppard loves dogs and really cares about them. She would treat other people's dogs just like her own, giving the dogs lots of love and cuddles. I would totally trust Carol and highly recommend her petsitting abilities. She has had dogs throughout her life and understands their needs.”

About: I have been a Rover dog sitter for the past 6 years. It has been such an amazing experience for me. I do not have a dog of my own so it’s been a blast getting to love on so many sweet dogs in my community. I spend most of my free time exploring local trails either by foot or on my bike! I would love to borrow your pup to keep me company and tag along on some of my adventures. I send daily photo updates while you’re away to ease any sort of anxiety of leaving your buddy while you’re out of town. Can’t wait to meet you and pup! :) Potty breaks as needed 2 walks daily I live just a short 1 mile from a dog friendly beach and walking trails. I would make sure your dog has the most fun - rain or shine :) I live in an dog friendly apt. with a small grass lawn in the front for early morning potty breaks. I live less than 1 mile from an interurban walking trail + dog friendly beach. Your dog will only be leaving my house on leash at all times no matter the level of training your dog has.
11. Kris G.
“Kris is so wonderful! I had a very last minute change of plans and she was able to host my pup the next morning. 3 acres of fenced yard is just heaven for dogs and I felt so comfortable leaving my pup there! Their little Rosie and my pup Freyja played so much and I got to take home a veryyyyyy exhausted puppy after a long day of work. I will DEFINITELY be going back.”
12. Matthew K.
“Flexible, communicative, and trustworthy!”
13. Susan H.
“Susan was super flexible helping us with a last-minute birthday trip for my husband. I always feel enxious dropping our dog to a new sitter, but Susan made it easy. Our dog snuggled right into her home (and her!). We got a nice picture almost right away so we could relax and enjoy the birthday dinner. Thank you, Susan!”
14. Calie & Nathan S.
“Beau had a great time with Reno! Calie and Nathan took great care of him. They are patient, kind and clearly enjoy dogs. I am so happy I found them!”
15. Nicole P.
“"Second to none" is how we would describe Nicole's care, knowledge, patience and love for dogs. We met Nicole through the dog rescue organization MAD Rescue (Malinois and Dutch Shepherd Rescue), where she has personally fostered over a dozen dogs and rescued so many more, including our beloved Belgian Malinois, Sassafras. We have witnessed Nicole's experience with fearful, abused, neglected and malnourished dogs, first-hand, where she has consistently shown patience, love and care for all dogs. We have also been recently fortunate to have Nicole care for Sassafras during our 2-week vacation to Europe. It was a peaceful thought knowing Sassafras was in good, loving hands. Nicole kept us regularly informed through messages, photos and videos, showing what a wonderful time our dog had with her and her dog, Ninja. Sassafras was taken on daily hikes and was able to enjoy Nicole's large, grassy backyard for play and relaxing... we suspect Sassafras had just as good a vacation as we did! Nothing more to say other than we highly recommend Nicole for the care of your dog(s).”

About: I am an attentive and consciences person especially when it comes to animals. Throughout my childhood there was always pets and animals in our home. Wether that be dogs, cats or fish. I have always felt a strong compassion for animals and I find so much joy in seeing animals happy and healthy I am currently a full time student at Western Washington. My schedule is quite open as I don't work right now. I live right near Whatcom Falls so getting to a quality walking spots is super convenient. I have a fair sized yard at a home that I share with 4 roommates right near Whatcom falls park. I also drive a truck with plenty of cab space for transporting a dog.
17. Josephine B.
“What a lovely new friend Bailey has!! She got to be the center of the universe ( her happy place) and I got to relax knowing she was in good hands.”
18. Alexis R.
“Alexis was quick to respond to messages & very patient with my many questions and concerns (new pup mom here!) She was punctual and sent pictures throughout the day. I plan to use her daycare service on a daily basis ?”
19. Jayde O.
“Jayde took awesome care of our Denny-boy and gave him lots of love as we celebrated our friends wedding. Without Jayde picking him up and dropping him off, it would have made having Denny as ring-bearer almost impossible. We’re so grateful!”
20. Mikah S.
About: I’m a pet dad to a sweet and active 5-year-old black lab and a 1–year-old tuxedo cat who absolutely loves dogs. I love and adore animals and your pet would have a fun time here!
