“Kelly has been fantastic! My pup Toshi has stayed with her a couple of nights and she has been so accommodating! She has sent me photos and updates which definitely puts me at ease. She has a large yard and her cute pup Khloe also keeps my dog company. You could tell she loves animals! I cannot recommend her enough, and I will always try and reach out if I need to book another stay for my pup. Thank you, Kelly!”
“Ethan really filled in in a pinch for us when our sitter situation didn’t work out less than 12 hours beforehand. Super responsive, and having a really awesome setup and really thoughtful care, I’d highly recommend Ethan!”
“I couldn't be more pleased with the care my dog received when staying with Ren. Knowing that it was hard for me to be separated from my dog/child, Ren sent me photos and videos of her throughout her stay. Thus, reassuring me that my dog was doing great. It was very clear that she not only was happy and very comfortable... she had made herself completely at home. In fact, I truly believe she misses being at his wonderful and inviting home. Thank you Ren, for taking amazingly good care of my "Lech!" She will definitely be back for more visits.”
“Fabulous experience! I was super worried about leaving my pup, as he is a bit submissive and can regress pretty quickly. Elizabeth was amazing with him, he quickly decided he liked her and seemed very comfortable in her house. Elizabeth kept me updated, sent me pictures and treated my guy just the way I do (super spoiled). He came home happy, tired and for the first time, I didn’t worry the whole time I was away. I can’t thank her enough, very positive experience!”
“Kelly was amazing! She watched my two dogs, one that was elderly and one that is just about 2.5 years old. She was very responsive and sent photos of my girlies while I was away. She was very kind and super easy to work with. I’ll definitely be booking with her again the next time I’m out of town!”
“Andrea is a wonderful pet sitter who takes excellent care of our senior dog Charlie. She is so attentive to his needs and makes sure he is happy and loved. Andrea’s frequent updates and pictures put us at ease knowing Charlie is enjoying his doggie vacation as much as we are enjoying ours. We feel so lucky to have found Andrea to watch our sweet old guy!”
“Jennifer was great! She is obviously very experienced and knowledgeable about dogs. My pup had some unexpected problems adjusting to being away from us for an extended period of time and she was very understanding and kind. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and loving sitter.”
“Thanks Sherry for taking such great care of my pet! She was incredibly responsible throughout the day care today. She always provides timely photo and videos and takes absolutely great care of Charli and she came home so happy that I highly recommended Sherry! Definitely will book Again!”
“Emily is fantastic! We felt so confident and happy leaving our fur baby in her care. Emily sent pictures, videos and detailed updates about Zara throughout her stay. Our dog has anxiety and a complex medication schedule and Emily accommodated all of her needs. She and Brent gave Zara tons of playtime, exercise and attention. They even designed special games to keep her entertained! Zara came back to us happy and calm - it was refreshing not to worry at all about her while we were away. We’d use Emily every time if we lived in the area - don’t hesitate to let her care for your pup!! Thank you Emily, Z misses you!”
“Rose is so sweet! She made me feel completely comfortable throughout the entire boarding process. She sent so many cute pictures and sent Quin home with lots of love and treats. The report card she gave us was an extra something special too. I’ll absolutely bring my pups back here! Thanks Rose 😊”
“Kayle was great with my dog Rocky! She sent photos every day and I could tell he was having a good time. 10/10 would recommend her as a sitter. I will be asking her to petsit for me in the future!”
“Ebrahim did a fantastic job with my one year-old Labrador. He knew how to handle big dogs, and young dog energy. His dog T played nicely with mine. He sent updates daily. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Highly recommend, I will use him in the future.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Priscilla was amazing to work with! She answered all our questions and made us feel good about leaving our Pup with her for the week. Priscilla sent us lots of updates and photos which was greatly appreciated! We highly recommend Priscilla!”
“Loc was such a joy to work with. Our dog loved him and and the time they spent together. We received daily communication, pictures and videos to show how our pup was doing. You can tell Loc enjoys being with all the dogs and that they all feel comfortable around him. We look forward to continue using Loc for our puppy housing needs!”
About: My 18 year old Cairn Terrier has just left for doggie heaven. My home is lonely without him. He was my fourth dog, so I have a lot of experience caring for a furry friend. My rate is low because having to find care for my dog was a major issue when I traveled. It is worth mentioning that I will watch only ONE dog at a time. It must also be a SMALL dog based on the Rover size chart. I am retired, but love to travel. I think it would be unfair to adopt another dog while I am still intending to spend time away from home. It has been a long time since I have been without a dog in my life. I thought taking care of yours would be a good way to have a furry companion when I am home. This is another reason for my low rate. I have a big fenced yard and a lot of left over stuff from my dog to provide a warm welcoming environment for my client's pet.
“Christopher did such a good job taking care of my Kylo. He updated me frequently and I felt secure while I was on my 2 week trip that my puppy had everything he needed.”
“Wonderful communication, professionalism, and enthusiasm. She worked with my requests and provided a worry free experience. I really appreciated Sheena's help in sitting our puppy and would definitely use her again!”
“Rebecca was amazing! Her and her family took my husky (Bruno) in like he was their own pup. We dropped bruno off worry free and he had a great time. She sent lots of photos and a video for us to see while we were away too. She was super communicative and answered any and all questions we had. Would 1000% recommend and book again 😊 thank you Rebecca!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fircrest
Ethan’s home is a puppy paradise. He took such good care of my husky and was thoroughly communicative throughout her stay. If you’re looking for a professional sitter who consistently updates you and has a home/yard designed for active play, this is your sitter. Best I’ve found in Tacoma! 10/10, highly recommend!
We left our 4-month-old puppy with Kana and Brian for a long day (12 hours), and they were amazing. They handled her so well and did such a great job making her feel safe and cared for. It was our first time leaving her with someone and also our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The communication is great, and they have a good yard for dogs, as well as a nice area inside for them. I'd definitely recommend Kana and will be using her again.
Elizabeth was an amazing angel when my family needed emergency boarding for my mom's dog when she went into the hospital. It was so late for booking I was scared we wouldn't find anyone. Then thiS AMAZING HUMAN came to meet the pup and brought her home with her for a weeks stay. Callie was treated like a member of their family there and got her favorite thing in the world, all the snuggles! I love that I didn't need to worry about her at all during her stay so we could focus on our family emergency. Will definitely re-book if we need someone to watch her again
Great first stay with Kevin and Vonnie. Our 11 year old yellow lab was well taken care of. Hosts were great communicators, attentive and clearly enjoyed time with Lily. Their home was perfect with a large secure backyard and comfortable inside. We have already booked a future stay.
Miranda did a wonderful job watching my dog, Moose, for a 2 week long vacation. I trusted her to take good care of him and based on the photos she sent, it seems like he had an enjoyable time with her dog, Fynn. She was communicative the entire time and accommodating when I needed to extend my trip by 2 days. I would recommend her as a sitter!
How great to find a wonderful pet sitter! Kuna had a fun overnight with Amanda. She went on 2 adventure walks and also met some new dog friends to hang out with. Photos were sent, updates give, and our instructions for Kuna’s care were followed to a tee. We look forward to another pet sitter opportunity soon.

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 Fircrest 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 Fircrest.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Fircrest sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

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.

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.
