Top rated First Hill doggy day care sitters
“Anne was very welcoming and accommodating taking care of Teddy. She sent me pictures throughout the day and my pup looked like he was having the best time! Will definitely book with Anne again; she loves animals and it shows!”
“Erin is absolutely incredible. Within the first ten minutes of meeting, she and my dog (Maya) were best friends. I booked with her during a super hot week and she did a great job at keeping Maya both cool and entertained. Maya had a bit of an upset tummy that week and Erin was on top of everything, keeping me up to date with how Maya was doing. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter to keep Maya company. Will definitely be booking again!”

“Tehilla was great. She kept us updated on how our pup was doing, took her on long walks and sent loads of photos and videos to keep us posted on her well being. I appreciate how responsive and warm she is, definitely would recommend her !”
“Julianna was great and took wonderful care of Dory. As any city is a difficult place to be a tourist with a dog in tow, it was a treat for us to spend a day exploring the city on our own knowing that Dory was well cared for. I would highly recommend Juliana. Note: Because Julianna lives in a downtown secure apartment I wish I had gotten more details about how to get in and contact her to let her know we were there. No problem in the long run.”
“Very responsive, kind and thorough. Sent great updates and our dog had a blast. I cannot recommend Phillip enough and will definitely ask him to watch our dog in the future.”
“Tiffany and Will were great hosts for our dog’s first day at doggy daycare with them! From the moment we dropped our dog off, we felt confident that they would provide a safe, fun, and loving environment. Our dog had an incredible time, enjoying a variety of toys in their home and getting plenty of exercise with walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. Tiffany and Will’s provided consistent communication throughout the day by providing updates and videos/photos, letting us know how our dog was settling in and having fun. We truly appreciate their care and attention to detail, and we’re excited for more doggy daycare days in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I have watched many of my friends dogs for long periods of time and I love dogs. I play with them and make sure they are taken care of. I also have an 80 lbs dog named Charlie who is a gentle giant! He loves other dogs and is very friendly. (His best friend is a 7lbs dog!) I work from home so have plenty of time to take care of the dog during the day! Most of my meetings are in the morning and then my afternoons are free. Sometimes I go to the gym but if I watch your dog I’ll be home! I have an outside patio on the 2nd level. I have our 80 lbs dog Charlie but he is very friendly. I have several rooms in my house and can always put Charlie in a separate room if there are any issues.

“Mandy did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Arlo. She was communicative and kind, and it was clear that he was very comfortable with her. She gave him ample exercise and was attentive to his dietary and behavior quirks. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up my whole life with animals, specially big dogs. I currently have a one year-old golden retriever, name, Mila. I dog sit for all my family and friends and I promise I will take care of your pet like I would my own. I currently work from home which allows me to have the flexibility to do this as well. I’m a very active person and I love pets and walk so this fits perfectly in my routine! I live next to a park so it’s the perfect location to take walks with your pet. I usually take My own 3 times a day. My apartment complex also has a dog section in the roof top :)
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember and I’ve never lived without them. Over the years, I’ve raised and trained countless dogs, birds, and more litters of kittens than I can count. Currently, I share my home with Whidbey, my friendly male Ragdoll kitten. He’s incredibly social with both cats and dogs and enjoys an active social life with his furry friends. Right now, I have extra time on my hands as I prepare to switch careers—and while my husband has (wisely) vetoed my dream of turning our home into a zoo, pet sitting feels like the perfect win-win. Whether your fur baby needs cuddles, calm companionship, or a bit of playful attention, they’ll be in safe, loving hands with me. I can’t wait to meet them! I'm currently in a career transition phase, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time and energy to dedicate to pet care. I’m home most of the day, so your pet will have lots of attention, playtime, and supervision—whether they're staying overnight or just dropping in for a visit. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine and is something I truly enjoy. From morning snuggles to evening play sessions, I'm here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for throughout the day. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly environment where your cat or small dog can feel relaxed and secure. I closely monitor interactions, especially during meet-and-greets or first-time stays, and I’m happy to separate pets until needed to ensure everyone feels safe. My Ragdoll kitten, Whidbey, is very gentle and social—used to being around other cats and dogs. Whether they need space, extra cuddles, or quiet time, I’m happy to adapt. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I treat your space with respect and keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel totally at ease while you're away.

Growlerz - Columbia CityLocal facility
“It’s so easy to write a glowing review for Growlerz Daycare. First it’s my dog’s favorite home away from home. I drop him off and he never looks back. The space is clean, well maintained with a staff that is friendly and experienced with many long-term team members. Most days you will also find one or both of the owners working to be sure your dog has a fun and safe experience. It’s more than just a daycare; it’s an awesome community for both pets and their humans.”

“There are animal lovers—and then there’s Sudharshini. Her compassion for animals runs deep, treating every pet with the love, respect, and attentiveness she would give a person. She’s had a wide range of pets throughout her life and truly sees them—each one unique, deserving, and held in the highest esteem. Sudharshini is not only incredibly loving, but also responsible and detail-oriented. She doesn’t just show up; she invests in your pet’s wellbeing. I would trust her with my dog again in a heartbeat, and sleep soundly knowing my pup is not only safe, but genuinely cherished. Animals seem to fall for her just as quickly as she falls for them and that says everything!”

First Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Perry took such a great care of my pup Captain. He communicates super fast and sends pictures and videos very often! Captain had a whole day of fun, two outdoor walks and bunch of fetch! After I picked up Captain, he was just chilling and enjoying himself cuddling with me! The best thing to come home to after a long day work! Perry is the best! He made captain’s first daycare experience super easy and excited. Captain has decided he wants to hang out with Perry every week!
If you’re ever looking for a dog sitter close to T-Mobile park or Lumen field while you are enjoying a game or concert Aisake F. is your guy! So kind and friendly. My 3 little dogs loved him and his adorable dog. Of course when we dropped off our 3 they were nervous but upon pick up they were happy! Our next trip to Seattle we definitely we be repeat customers💙
Mario was absolutely amazing with my dog, who has pretty severe separation anxiety. From the very beginning, Mario was calm, patient, and incredibly reassuring- not just for my dog, but for me too! He took the time to understand my dog’s needs and went out of his way to make sure he felt comfortable and safe. I received regular updates with messages, and I could see how relaxed and happy my pup was under Mario’s care. When I got bak to pick him up, my dog was calm, well-cared for, and clearly had built a bond with Mario. It’s such a relief to know there’s someone out there I can fully trust with my dog, especially given his anxiety. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Mario again- he’s the best! Thank you so much!😊🙏🥰
This was our 1st time using Rover and we’re a little nervous about leaving our girl with random people. We were glad we had a great experience. Sophie & Tyler were great! They treated our girl like family. Their communication was excellent! I would definitely recommend them for your pups needs.
