“This was Sequoia's first time away from home and I was nervous about leaving her but Tracy was great and Sequoia clearly had a wonderful time (she was vocally upset about leaving her new friends as we pulled away when I picked her up). Tracy's knowledge of puppy training was greatly appreciated and she continued the work we had been doing at home (and even gave me tips and tricks to help the process). Really happy we chose Tracy!”
“Rochelle and her husband were wonderful! Our pup loved them and their home the instant he stepped through the front door. He got lots of snuggles and adventures, and we got plenty of updates along the way which was incredibly comforting. There’s no doubt in my mind that Whispy can’t wait to come back for a visit!”
“Kyle and his whole family gave Millie and Mabel such a warm welcome! They have a large, fully fenced yard with plenty of room for the dogs to run and play, and Kyle sent us lots of updates and photos throughout their stay. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were happy, safe, and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Kyle & Marissa again!”
“Our English Cream Golden Retriever (almost 6) stayed with Haiman for 24 days, and we couldn’t be happier with how well she cared for him. She took him on two walks every day, kept him comfortable, and treated him like her own. He loved being there and came home happy and relaxed. We’d rebook with her in a heartbeat. If you’re in east Seattle, we highly recommend her!”
“Our standard poodle Buster-Matisse loves to come stay at Jo & Kin’s. I love picking up a happy dog. Jo lives out in the country and the dogs have a bit of space to roam. This is our second time with Jo, and we’ll be back again!”
“xiaoli and her family are our favorite and best sitters ever! I feel so comfortable leaving my dog at her home. My trust in rover was badly damaged when the last sitter lost my dog and Xiaoli gives me such good peace of mind. She’s fantastic and super responsible and responsive. My dog is happy, clean and well taken care of.”
“Amazing!!! Can't say enough good things. I got constant updates, and she's super observant and attentive, very communicative, and puts you at ease knowing your fur baby is being spoiled while your way. Jiyeon loves and enjoys pups and it clearly shows in the care she provides. Can't imagine a better place for my dog to have stayed!”
“Xi is a dream! I am so comforted when my pup is in her care. Her golden boy is a wonderful companion and the whole family is kind and happy to have a new dog in their home. I love that Xi takes the time to get to know my dogs behavior and schedule. The communication is top notch. Top that off with Xi's amazing photo and video updates! Always a great experience!”
“Cary and his wife did an amazing job with our high energy dog. We can tell they both made sure he got enough exercise and had him feeling right at home. We will definitely be using them in the future. It’s so relieving finding people who love dogs like we do ours! Leo gives them two paws up he didn’t want to leave😂”
“Kaitlin was great! She took great care of our pup, was responsive, easy to work with and professional. She even agreed to take our pup after she had a minor leg injury and needed a bit of TLC. Our pup stared out of the back of the car and watched her walk away at the end of the stay - so I think she liked Kaitlyn, too!”
“Amy was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of Uma and treated her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Uma was in such loving and responsible hands. What truly stood out was Amy’s flexibility and kindness, when a special need came up and I had to adjust my dates, she was incredibly accommodating and understanding. That meant so much to me. Her updates were fantastic and her communication throughout was clear and thoughtful. I always knew how Uma was doing, which gave me total peace of mind. I would 100% trust Amy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and professional. Thank you, Amy! 💛”
“Super friendly, great communicator and made me feel like my fur baby was in good hands. The sitters dogs are friendly and were great with my guy. Thank you for keeping him safe and giving him company for our first overnight. We are looking forward to having him back. 💜”
“Robin and her family were great with our dog and super easy to coordinate with. The bottomline question always seems to be: would we board with Robin again? Yes! We plan to.”
“Lisa is incredible! It's hard to find someone who loves dogs as much as we do. She not only takes pictures and tracks their walks, she shares communication on a regular basis. We even know when our dog eats and goes to the bathroom. Totally worth booking her if you love your dog!!! Enzo didn't want to come home, he ran straight back to her car so there's no better testimonial than that.”
“Mike looked after our little dog Loki on short notice, so that we could make it to a family memorial across the country. Loki can be out of sorts in a strange environment (he’s pretty set in his familiar routine), but he did really well in Mike’s care! We’re glad we were able to find such a safe and comfortable environment for Loki while we were away.”
“Debbi and her family do such a great job taking care of Coach. He comes home exhausted after a week of play and love at her house. She is great about sending daily updates along with pics and is very responsive when there is a question. Debbi is our go to person whenever we travel.”
“We are repeat customers. I’ve started referring to them as his Rover grandparents to Ollie. When he arrived he happily trotted in. The love and care they show to the dogs in their care is obvious to anyone who brings their dog there. A+++++++”
“Christel was so great, she took great care of our old man Mo, she also helped take care of his paw when she noticed he was favoring it. She took pictures and helped me have a peace of mind while we were away on our trip. I knew he was in great hands, would definitely book again for our next trip! Thank you again!!”
“Janin is fantastic! We’ve been looking for a place that can take care of our dog when we go on long trips. Our dog had constant company so he was having fun, but at the same time, he wasn’t overwhelmed. We feel that Janin was careful to make sure that all the dogs were compatible with each other. We got regular updates through pictures and videos and could see that he was having a good time. We will definitely look to book Janin again!”

Milo had a wonderful stay with Gary, and I couldn't be happier with the care he received. I am so thankful that I found Gary because he has all the qualities I was looking for in a dog sitter. He is caring, reliable, attentive and truly loves animals. One of the things I appreciated most was the daily photos and updates he sent. They gave me peace of mind while we were away and showed our family that Milo was happy, comfortable and having a great time. He took excellent care of Milo and treated him like family. I highly recommended Gary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I will definitely use his services again and again in the future. Thank you, Gary for taking such great care of Milo. We are so grateful to have found you!
This was our pets first stay with Karen. Our little dachshund was able to play with Karen's dachshund, and they appeared to have a great time as seen through the video she sent me. Our little Loki came home tired which is a good sign he had lots of play time with the other pups. I really appreciate the daily updates and especially the videos. We are already looking into Karen's availability for our next trip. Highly recommend.
Daria is the best! She watched out dogs for about 2 weeks while we were in Italy. Our dogs can be slightly nervous, and they were completely relaxed and happy with Daria. She also gave us lots of updates while they were with her, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Thank you, Daria!!
Rochelle and Eric do an incredible job caring for my Koda. He tends to stop eating when anxious but they know just how to keep him eating and in good spirits. They are very communicative and responsive, and he always comes back home in high spirits. We really appreciate and recommend Rochelle and Eric!
This is our second time booking with Robin, and just like the first, she was absolutely incredible with Kenzo. Honestly, she's the best sitter we've had on Rover, hands down! I'll always pick her first. She went above and beyond yet again: keeping Kenzo active with regular walks and adventures, spoiling him with treats and even a pup cup, and making sure he felt safe and comfortable the whole time (including through a stormy night with fireworks!). Her communication is fantastic too, daily updates, photos, and sweet little check-ins that put our minds completely at ease. Kenzo clearly adores her and her family just as much as we do. It's such a relief knowing he's genuinely happy and loved while we're away. We'll keep coming back to Robin every time, she's simply the best!
Heather was so accommodating at taking a very last minute booking late at night after our scheduled dog sitter cancelled on us the night before due to an emergency. It made a very stressful situation much less stressful knowing our sogs would be cared for. When i dropped the dogs off Heather had read through the dogs care instructions already amd asked a few questions During the overnight stay Heather updated us with photos and reasured us the dogs were doing great. She took them for several walks and when i picked the dogs up they were definitely tired but happy.
The dogs had a great time staying with Alison and family. Alison was a great communicator, had us over for an initial meet and greet before this first stay and was organized and informative about what the stay would be like for the dogs. She sent some notes and details during their stay. The dogs came home happy and healthy. Thanks Alison. We will book again!!
We were blessed to have found Curtis literally last minute. He kindly took Penny in and welcomed her with warm heart. We received updates with pictures and videos almost every day, knowing that our pup was being taken of so well. He even put on some soft music when Penny first arrived to help her relax in the new environment. Curtis has a genuine love for our dog. As pet parents, we can certainly tell. All in all, such a pleasant stay for Penny! I know Penny would definitely love to see him again in the future. Thank you Curtis!
Sarah and Bill were incredibly gracious, hospitable, and lovely people. We knew when we met that they were going to be an amazing fit for Frankie. They were great about giving us updates and I know that Frank really enjoyed her time. Great folks! Thank you so much!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cottage Lake home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Cottage Lake.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Cottage Lake sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
