“Rebecca and her family were a great match for my dog who gets so sad when I am gone for a long period. They took good care of his needs and there was always lots of activity and attention for him from Rebbeca, her three sons and her husband. Thanks for taking good care of Loki, so I didn't have to worry about him.”

“Liz was WONDERFUL! Our boy Maxx is 12 and a real dog of comfort. Liz sent us daily photos and comments, and Maxx looked like he fit right in in her home with the other dogs. Daily trips to the off-leash dog park were a big hit. Her home had that “dog home” feel to it, and we were quite comfortable leaving our boy there for three days.”

About: FALL 2026. OCT-DEC Boardings: Open. Especially Holidays. Pick Up and Drop Off: Open. See my boarding schedule. Recurring Walks: After Nov 1, 4/4 Slots Open. Direct Booking: Request at least 1 night ahead. One-time Walks, Meet and Greets: Open. See my walk schedule. SCHEDULE Ask or check online. Photo journals, methods, and consents are online too, by requests. BACKGROUND My own business primarily uses group walks to build trust, socialize dogs, and normalize habits. Many dogs I board I also walk weekly in groups, so we have high trust. ABOUT ME I'm socially neurodivergent. Lots of sincerity, very little small talk. I think in feelings, so when survival mode fades over the months and your dog's own personality comes out, their feelings catch me and some reports turn into a poem. This also means I'm not the type to sell myself. Reach out for any services you may want. I'm home and board dogs full-time. I also work part time as a computer programmer when not walking dogs. I can code either inside the house in various rooms, or outside on the covered patio. I rarely leave home for more than a few hours at a time. I'm available for meet and greets, and amenable to pickup and drop-off for boardings. I share the house with one roommate who keeps to their room mostly and is good with dogs. I can board up to 4 dogs at a time. If a dog needs its own dedicated space? I have a bedroom-office that opens straight onto the backyard. Doors close it off from the rest of the house. I can stay and sleep in that room during their visit. The other socialized dogs then have use of the rest of the house. For any emergencies, I use Chambers Creek Veterinary Hospital. Open 24/7 and within 10 minutes. Wood floors throughout, put in with boarding in mind. No shoes inside. Temperature and humidity gauge at floor level to maintain comfortable conditions. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and on the bed. Dog beds in most rooms and on the patio. I have one large and one small dog crate, though I don't find a need for them often. Fully fenced backyard with shade, grass for lounging and sniffing, and sticks for chewing. Floors swept daily. Vacuumed and mopped a few times per week. Disinfecting wipes used for any messes. I have a jumbo washer and dryer, both with steam settings that disinfect. Dog beds, blankets, and toys are washed and steamed between stays, and even during when needed. The yard is picked up daily. My dog Vesper is a dachshund-beagle mix, 11 years old, 22 lbs, spayed. She used to be neurotic and now wiggles all the time. A veteran of more boardings and group walks than I can count. Her strong habits and bond with me help set the pace for new dogs. She is current on rabies thru 2028, DAPP and Bordetella, plus monthly flea/tick/heartworm.

Jasmine was awesome!! She took care of our two very large Newfoundland puppies on short notice and they were absolutely spoiled. I'm always nervous when someone new watches our babies but Jasmine and her husband immediately made us feel comfortable when we met them, gave us a tour of their house and fenced backyard and were very nice and welcoming. Over the next few days we received so many photos of our pups being totally pampered with love and attention while we were gone. She even started working on leash training them! I couldn't recommend Jasmine enough!

Louann is the best! She had my older dog at her home for two weeks. He was showered with love, had happy, slow walks, and even got to sleep in her room! She asked all the right questions beforehand, texted me when another question came up, and sent sweet pup pictures to make me miss him even more. I would absolutely recommend her for a home stay, or just regular dog walks. She pays careful attention, makes them feel very cared for, and gave me peace of mind.

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 Eastward 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 Eastward.

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 Eastward 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.
