“This is was my first experience with Rover, and I was very satisfied! Kristina was very accommodating for my puppy and flexible with me as I tried to plan around my work schedule.”

“Marlena was great with Rainy while I was gone for the day. Rainy's need and comfort were a priority for her. She also sent me several texts with photos for mt peace of mind. We will definitely use her services again.”


About: I have been taking care of dogs almost every week on the weekends along with sitting for my neighborhood dogs, cats, birds and guinea pigs while they are on vacation or away from their home. I am comfortable feeding dogs, interacting with them and I love to give lots of love. I am familiar with giving medication’s to dogs if needed. Your animal will be in good hands as I will love them as my own. Whatever an owner needs for them and their dogs to be well cared for, I can accommodate. I work from home, so the dog will always be accompanied with me. we’ll have plenty of playtime, outside time and potty breaks. I provide at least 2 walks a day and several Potty breaks from 7 am up until 10 Pm. I have a fenced yard where they can play as they like and they can hang out inside as well. I am very interactive with the dogs and love to send pictures.
“I needed a last minute sitter and Timothy took in my puppy Scrim right away. I have a 1 yr 3 month Cane Corso, I was very skeptical for leaving him for a long period of time. Knowing Timothy has experience with larger dog breeds made me feel 100% comfortable. Him and his wife is very warming and welcoming! He has great communication! I know Scrim had an amazing time! I highly recommend and I will be returning! Thank you!”

“Julie and Dennis were wonderful with our dog. They kept us updated throughout the day with pictures. Our dog had a wonderful time with their and got himself very comfortable in their big backyard!”

“I think I found my dog's new sitter. Since getting our new dog Willow back in May, I've never had to deal with a dog with separation anxiety, and it's definitely come with a learning curve. I decided to try out a Rover in particular, Noelle, and she and her dogs were an excellent fit for Willow. The picture updates and videos were amazing, and put my mind at ease knowing she was fitting in smoothly.”

About: I have volunteered at the Seattle Humane Society for 12 years, and I have experience caring for puppies, kittens, cats and dogs. I am also an English bulldog owner and lover of all animals. I would love to help care for your furry friends and family members! I am available for walks and drop ins, primarily during weekends. I am also available for boarding and overnight stays at my home throughout the week! If you are looking for boarding at my home, I have a fenced in yard to keep your pet safe, and one English Bulldog who is very friendly and gets along with other animals.
“Kristina was a great dog sitter, she took the time to meet our dog before taking care of her. She was lovely with our dog and also shared pictures and was very communicative. No doubt she will be the person/family that I want and I feel confident to leave my pet.”

“Jeannine is absolutely the best! She is super kind, communicative, and really cares about dogs! Amani is always excited to arrive at her home and is tired when she gets home! Jeannine is a wonderful example of the kind of sitter you’d want to watch your fur baby! I love all the photos and videos and her quick responses! And a super bonus is she is an expert with German Shepherds! Truly a gem in Tacoma!!!! I highly recommend her services!!!”


“Ashley is a truly is so sweet!!! She provided a safe and loving environment for our boy, made him feel right at home. I could tell by our dog’s demeanor when picked up that he was tired and happy. Highly recommend her!!!”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs since I was 8. Growing up I wanted to be a dog veterinarian, but changed paths to be an early learning teacher after I graduated. I’ve had dogs and cats and I’m also a duck mom! I have 10 at the moment and love every bit of it. I’m also a stay at home mom just looking to help others and make some extra money on the side! I’m currently a stay at home mom and have days completely open! My daughter some days have gymnastics but nothing that would take more than an hour or two ! I have a fenced .75 acre with 3 friendly dogs and a fenced area with 10 ducks ! I’m open for either in home or in my home depending on the circumstances!
“Cheree was amazing with our anxious dog! She made him feel comfortable and cared for from the start. Mac absolutely loves spending time at her house — we couldn’t ask for a better sitter 😊”

About: Hello there, helpful Heather here! I am the only child of a 3rd generation Pug breeder. I’ve never lived a day without a Pug by my side - Pugs are my life! That being said, I may be a bit socially awkward on the human end of things, but your dog and I will be fast friends! Guaranteed. While I am happy to help with the occasional sitting need what I am looking for is to be an extension of your furry family. If you're reading this, then it's obvious you're looking for more than just a sitter or walker. You're looking for a nanny to help care for your furry children, and I am the exact fit for that. Our pets do best with familiarity, especially during stressful times such as travel. Though by themselves my services are stellar with familiarity they become unprecedented. This can be especially useful for senior care or for younger dogs who may require consistency for training - Walking on a Leash is a good example. The bottom line: I will love your pet(s) as though they were my own. My proficiency expands far beyond flat-faced breeds, don't worry! I am very familiar with many breeds of dogs: Australian Shepard (which, did you know is an American breed? Fun fact!) Basenji, Chihuahua, Corgi, any type of Doodle, Labrador, Pitties, Poodles (from standard to teacup), Yorkshire Terrier. And so many more!! Where did all this experience come from?! From not only love and a pawsome passion for animals, but from dog training as well. If you have certain goals you'd like to keep in practice, rest assured I’ve got the canine competence to assist you with your consistent training needs while you're away from home. Or, should you have any questions in regards to any undesirable doggy behaviors I'd be happy to assist and educate! I have an attachment for senior and special needs dogs. I must admit that while I adore dogs of all ages, there will always be a special place in my heart for the elderly. If your dog(s) need extra care or medications given to them with specific directions, rest assured I am fully capable and willing of doing whatever your senior or special needs dog(s) may require for their proper care. So, if you're looking for reliable, knowledgeable, and devoted pet assistance, I'm the sitter for you! Well, for your furry friend(s), that is. :) ►►If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask!☺ ♥Thank you♥ Pet sitting and dog walking is my full-time profession. During the week I have a handful of regular clients that occupy my time typically from 10 am to 2 pm. My weekends are mostly free and I am home every evening unless house sitting - in that case, my husband is home every evening from 6 pm to 7:30 am. I am always 30 minutes or less from my home and even during house sitting stays, I am coming home to check in on and provide company to my own two pups. They're never alone for more than four hours. Currently, my family is growing, and my house sits will be on a temporary hiatus as my husband and I adjust to having a tiny human in the house. My home has a moderate size yard that is fully fenced. I also have a doggy door that leads to the backyard for full access when someone is home. As I have cats and small caged critters, I do prefer boarding stays to be crate trained. My own dogs are crate trained and absolutely love their "box." It is their safe space for when life or other dogs becoming too overwhelming. In my experience, I have found that bringing your dog's crate (along with some beds and blankets) helps your dog have their own safe space to relax or retreat to when needed. It also keeps everyone safe while I am out tending to regular walking clients. When house sitting I try my best to keep to your dog's typical routine. Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Crate when leaving, or close bedroom doors. Walks around the neighborhood or play in the backyard. Not allowed on furniture, sleeping in bed with you, etc. Please let me know what your furry friend is accustomed to! Please keep in mind that I will not be able to stay in your home 24/7 as I have regular clients during the week that I need to walk. I will be able to stay in your home through the entire night with regular afternoon potty breaks.
