“We couldn't be happier with the care Brett provided for our Goldendoodle, Miles! Brett did an awesome job, and his home is the perfect setup for dog sitting. Miles absolutely loved playing with Brett’s two Golden Retrievers—it was like a built-in vacation for him. We felt completely at ease knowing Miles was safe, happy, and having a blast. We will definitely be booking with Brett again!”
“We had a great vacation, but Benson's was even better. We weren't sure he'd want to come home after spending time at Lance's. <g> I've already recommended Lance to other pet owners. We especially appreciate that he only takes a few dogs at a time.”
“Francena’s Doggy Disneyworld is a literal oasis for your small breed dog 🐾💕 They have the perfect set up outside and inside for pups to live their best life!! I think my little Poppy might miss it more than I’d like!”
“Judith and her husband were very welcoming and super flexible. My flight came in late and I wasn’t able to come until after 9pm which I know for most people is late. Overall Cisco looked so happy and looked like he had some friends that were going to miss him. This will definitely be his 2nd home when I have to go out of town again.”
“Brandon and Heater were amazing. Leia and Kylo enjoyed their stay. Kylo takes a long time to warm up but felt comfortable sleeping under the covers just like at home. So glad that we found them and will be contacting them when we need a dog sitter again.”
“Kathy and Craig do an outstanding job of taking care of our dogs. We can go on our trips without any worries. Our dogs are looking forward to their next visit with Kathy and Craig in November.”
“Our pup had her first sleepover with Anthony and it was a big success! Thank you, Anthony for the update and the many photos! It is wonderful to know she is in great hands and so happy! 🩷”
“This is my second go around with Leslie she’s kind and prompt and you can tell she really loved what’s she’s doing. The care she has shown my animal has been a contributing factor on me writing this review as well as trusting her deeply with my baby. My lala loves going over there and her space is clean and open and wants you to feel the most comfortable always. I’m a forever customer ♥️”
“Keri M was so great! My dog is nervous and shy around new people, and Keri was very patient with her until she started opening up to her. I was also nervous since this was the first time my dog was cared for by anyone except close family. Keri M kept in communication with me during my dog's stay, sending pictures and videos daily, and she was prompt to respond to my inquiries as well. She went out of her way to make sure my dog was comfortable, even letting her sleep in the bed with her which my dog is used to at home. I will book with Keri M again, and I definitely recommend Keri M to anyone who wants their dog to have a great time and be well-cared for during their stay.”
“Cyndi watched our dog, who is very high energy, and took all of his mischief in stride. She was understanding when we had to push pickup time back, and gave us updates every day we were gone. Thanks Cyndi!”
“Gino is the best! We left our two year old boxer Abby with him for her first boarding experience and he was fabulous! Very patient and knowledgeable about dogs with different temperaments. He even gave her the allergy meds she needed. He kept in constant contact while we were away so we knew how she was doing while we were gone. Will certainly be back the next time we go out of town. Thank you so much Gino!”

“Diahann was great, this was our dog Duke's first time with a sitter and out first time being away from him, from the beginning she made us feel very comfortable and at ease, she allowed us to bring Duke by earlier then our drop off time so he can get familiarized with his surroundings, she updated us daily, multiple times a day with pictures :), we would highly recommend her if you are looking for a sitter, thank you so much Diahann - Duke”
“Harlie is awesome! Quick and consistent communication and clear care for our pup. Our pup has separation anxiety and needs special care. Harlie accommodated that request right away and had a great follow up after the stay. We already booked another stay with Harlie!”
“Katie was great with my GSD Spartan! She sent pics of him everyday and was always on the look out for potential stomach issues he's been having recently. He looked like he was part of the family while he stayed with her and her family. And their huge lot was great for Spartan to run around and get his energy out!”
“I felt very at ease leaving my dog Agnes with Shannon. She has a lot of experience with dogs and Agnes liked her immediately. Her two dogs are very sweet and were great playmates to Agnes. She also gave me frequent updates on my pup, which I really appreciated because this was the first time I've been away from my puppy for that length of time. My dog is very energetic and she was able to handle her well. I would definitely ask her to sit for me again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Federal Way
Linda took amazing care of our dog for 7 days! We loved the daily photos and videos and updates and knew Bean was safe and lovingly cared for. He has anxiety with strangers and new dogs and she was extra considerate of his feelings and made sure he was comfortable at all times. Linda is an experienced dog owner and someone who truly loves animals. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip because we knew Bean would be loved! Thank you Linda!!
Another great stay 🤗 We always feel so comfortable leaving Mylo with them because we know he’s in good hands. We really appreciate all the updates and photos during his stay, it gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. Mylo always seems happy and well cared for when we pick him up. We’ll definitely be booking again! ❤️
Michelle was absolutely amazing with Luna! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my dog. She was incredibly caring, attentive, and responsible throughout Luna’s stay. She made sure Luna was taken outside regularly for walks, gave her food and medication on time, and most importantly, gave her so much love and attention. Luna came back so happy and comfortable, and it was clear to me that she had been very well taken care of. Michelle also kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely trust Michelle with Luna again in the future, without hesitation. In fact, she will be one of the first people I contact whenever I need someone to care for Luna. I highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their beloved pet. You can have complete peace of mind knowing that your dog is in caring, loving, and responsible hands. Thank you so much, Michelle, for taking such wonderful care of my little Luna! ❤️🐶
Spring and Adil are reliable, pleasant people and responsible pet owners who maintain a clean, comfortable home suitable for both small and medium-sized dogs. Their own dog is friendly and well behaved. I highly recommend them for pet stays and would feel confident entrusting a pet to their care.
This is our second time having Rachel sit with Luna and it was great knowing Luna was in good hands while we were away. Luna got excellent attention and care and even some extra long walks. I got tons of photos and updates as well which always puts me at ease! Thanks again Rachel! ♥️
All wonderful things to say about Maggie! We had a great meet and greet and got to meet her awesome fur babies and super cozy home. She sent so many pictures of Milo throughout his stay. He didn’t even look like he wanted to come back to us haha! She’s probably the only person who can take care of my baby just like I do.
Alex and her lab are fantastic with my pup. She has a dog that my pup loved to play with in the large yard and a young child that my dog enjoyed splashing in a pool with! Alex is quick to communicate and easy to work with, very responsible with instructions and items sent- like a special harness and food timing. Thanks Alex!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
