“Robin was great! This was my first time using her but as a fellow Rover Sitter and a pet-parent, I couldn’t have been more pleased! I will definitely use Robin again in the future.”


“Mandy was great with our pack! She took great care of the housemaid kept it nice and clean. The babies all seem to enjoy her company. If anything, they probably want us gone more often! She sent us plenty of photos and videos and also took our youngest dog out to hang out with her dog so he can get some energy out. Will definitely book again. Thank you Mandy!”


“Becky was absolutely amazing! She sent photos of my fur babies everyday. Walked and played with my dog, snuggled and played with my kitties. She had amazing communication and went above and beyond. My animals were so happy.”


“First time using an online dog/house sitting app. Cassandra was absolutely amazing. 10/10. We won’t be going back to friends/friends kids to house sit for us. Super nice adult, just who you want to be in your house with your pets while you are away. Great communication. Kept us updated every day and with fun pictures of the adventures she took our two dogs on. And boy did they get spoiled! Walks, trips to the park, wash and brush, really above and beyond. The house was immaculate upon our return as well. She was happy to water plants and feed the chickens and collect eggs etc. Again, amazing. If you need a sitter, and Cassandra is available, do not think twice.”


“Amazing! Kind, responsible, responsive, attentive...Madison made every effort to make sure leaving my dogs and my home in her care for 8 days was without any stress. She came to my home 4 times in advance before my trip to meet me, my dogs and give me the peace of mind I needed to leave and relax knowing I had a trustworthy caregiver there to manage my husky and lab. Hands down, the best person to be in your home with your pets. She's remarkable. The pictures and daily check ins were so great. I wish I could give her ten stars!!!!”


“I cannot thank Vanessa enough for taking care of my boys while I was away. When I came home, my boys seemed very relaxed and well loved on! Vanessa was super understanding of my living situation and felt confident taking care of my 60 lbs pitbull mix. She updated me when it came to their walks, clearly stated her needs and understood my needs as well. Beyond blessed to have found a reliable overnight sitter for my boys.”


“Samantha took excellent care of my kitty and my home! She even came out early to meet Skittles and learn about his care routine. She's definitely very trustworthy and a pleasure to work with! Skittles and I would definitely love to have her back again next time needed.”


“Kirsten was great! She helped us out with really short notice, and was very flexible & accommodating. Cooper seemed to connect with her right away! We will definitely book her again!!”


“This was our first time using Rover, or having anyone that wasn’t family watch our 9 year old Lab. Theo did amazing!! Tons of walks, playing, and snuggling with him. 100% will be booking with Theo again!”


“Simonne is the best!!! She did an outstanding job with our two dogs!! They both warmed up to her immediately. She kept us updated with pictures and treated them like they were her own. It is clear that she is an expert in caring for animals. We were so happy to find someone we can trust with our dogs and we hope to have her dog sit for us again in the future!”


“It was our second time having Grace watch our pups and we would not hesitate to book with her again. We come home to happy dogs and she provided many updates over the course of the week!”


About: With over 30 years of experience as a pet owner of both cats and dogs, I’ve naturally transitioned into pet sitting and house sitting for others—starting with friends and family, and growing through word of mouth to care for pets of friends of friends. I’m a lifelong animal lover who takes pride in providing loving, reliable care for pets of all kinds. Whether it’s a short visit or a long-term stay, I follow instructions carefully, maintain a clean and tidy environment, and prioritize clear, consistent communication with pet owners for total peace of mind. I currently work weekends only 12-8pm in Olympia so I am free around those hours and all week long! I am available for drop ins as well as overnight stays. I take great pride in caring for my 11-year-old rescue cat in my apartment, creating a calm and nurturing environment tailored to her needs. From maintaining a clean, cozy space to providing regular meals, playtime, and gentle affection, I ensure she feels secure and loved every day. This same level of attentiveness and compassion extends to the pets I care for in other people’s homes. I prioritize each animal’s comfort and routine, while respecting the owner's space and preferences, fostering a sense of safety and trust. Whether it's feeding, administering medication, or offering companionship, I approach every pet with patience, reliability, and genuine care.

“Alison was the most wonderful pet/ house sitter I have had. She took such great care of my dog and house for 12 days. She sent me pictures of my pup which was so appreciated. She even cleaned up her poops! Wow no one has ever done that.”


“Wendy was amazing! She took excellent care of Nook and left our home spotless. She was incredibly communicative, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip without any stress. It was clear the moment we got back that Nook was happy, relaxed, and had been well cared for. We highly recommend Wendy for anyone in need of a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”



“Bryan did a fantastic job house sitting and watching our two senior dogs. They were happy and we could tell they were well taken care of while we were gone. The house was in great shape, too! We’d definitely recommend Bryan and use him again.”


“Brett was great at following directions, asking questions and sending updates, and tending to our enthusiastic pup! He was very flexible and thorough in the random “extra” asks we had when housesitting. Definitely recommend.”


About: I luckily was able to grow up on a farm where I was around horses, sheep, dogs and cats all throughout my childhood and young adulthood. I feel comfortable being able to sense what an animal needs and how to make them feel more as ease. I am a very active person and if you have an active dog, can get them out on adventure hikes. I work part-time and from home a lot of days. I am mostly home on the weekends and can be available with advance notice for any day or holiday. I have an apartment where dogs or cats can roam and are allowed on the bed. As I am home for much of the day they can be comforted that I am there and let out on frequent potty breaks.


“Bekah did a fantastic job taking care of our two boys for the first time. She was professional and friendly; we much appreciated her keeping us updated with photos daily. We hope to use her again in the future. Thank you Bekah!”


“Veronica did a great job of taking care of our cats. She sent us daily updates and communicated very well and always asked questions if she wasn't sure or needed more clarification. She spent extra one on one time with our newly adopted somewhat feral kitty working on getting her more socialized.”

Simonne is the best!!! She did an outstanding job with our two dogs!! They both warmed up to her immediately. She kept us updated with pictures and treated them like they were her own. It is clear that she is an expert in caring for animals. We were so happy to find someone we can trust with our dogs and we hope to have her dog sit for us again in the future!

Madeline did an amazing job! We have three cats and a dog all with very specific needs and she did a great job handling them and all their quirks. She even managed to gain the trust of our very shy cats in a short amount of time. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!

I could not be happier with Lauren for how she cared for my dog! I have a reactive border collie mix, so I always stress when having to leave her, especially with someone new. Lauren did a meet and greet and was great about letting Marlowe meet her on her terms. Lauren took care of Marlowe for one week and provided daily updates and photos. She was patient with Marlowe, respected her boundaries, and took her time with letting Marlowe get comfortable with her and build a foundation of trust. Lauren spent a great amount of time being home with Marlowe and playing with her daily. Seeing pictures and videos of my baby being a happy girl while missing her was something I appreciate so much. I immediately requested Lauren to watch Marlowe again for my next trip. It is such a relief to have found someone who I can trust with my special girl and her unique needs!

Izzy put us at ease knowing our fur babies were taken care of the way they deserve while we were across the country. We just moved here so we wanted someone we could really trust and Izzy more than delivered! We will absolutely use her again in the future. If you are a crazy dog mom like me, look no further you’ve found the right person to care for your pet(s)!

Kui is so great. She takes wonderful care of our dogs, meeting them where their needs are. She’s a terrific communicator. We were gone for two weeks and I never worried about our dogs because I knew she was taking care of them (she also alerted us when our house started acting up!). Thank you so much, Kui!

Alison was fantastic! She was very communicative and took excellent care of Nook while we were away. He was clearly happy and well cared for, and she kept him calm and comfortable during the Fourth of July fireworks, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend!

Bryan was great. He immediately hit it off with our two dogs with his relaxed yet fun demeanor. And we loved the periodic updates and photos he sent while we were gone. He took care of our house and left it in perfect shape. Most importantly, the dogs were happy and healthy when we returned.

This was the second time we’ve had Rachel stay, and it was just as great as the first time. Rachel is wonderful about sending updates, following my (very long) written instructions, and communication. The pets were also so relaxed and happy when we returned home. She is the best!

Grace is so kind and responsive! She was flexible with our needs and had no problems with our event ending earlier than planned. One of our dogs is afraid of meeting new people, but he warmed up to Grace immediately which put my mind at ease. Would absolutely work with her again!
