About: Throughout my life I've had 4 dogs. Currently I have two, with one being a 2-year-old pup I've been training ever since I adopted her and one that's pretty old and requires some special care. I used to work as a dog groomer for a business called Kendra's Grooming and I would watch her dogs when she went away with her family for vacation. For Kendra's Grooming I would bathe, dry, and hold dogs whenever needed. All of my classes are online currently for the summer and I'm open whatever day of the weekdays and Saturdays along with whatever time or for however long. So, I'm able to work whatever time is needed. I would be able to keep a constant eye on your pup, take them on however many walks you would want, and would be able to care for them in whatever way is needed. I've worked with animals with all sorts of personalities and in varying stages of health, so I can work with any form of animal, and I can accommodate for any of your pet's unique needs.
About: I had 4 dogs growing up and my parents always had me on a tight schedule with taking care of them. I fed them every morning at 6AM or 10AM and at 5-6PM every night. I also walked them and cleaned their messed when needed, and finally i never let their water bowl go dry. I love dogs and when I’m around them long enough they’ll love me. I will have plenty of time to take care of pets during the week. Im currently trying to make any extra cash I can right now. Which ever way a dog has to he taken care of I can do it. Each of my dogs growing up had different food and ways they needed to eat so I always took care of that
“Kenji is my pup’s best friend. Lol I only took a week off and his absence was felt. I work ten hour days and knowing he’s popping in to check on my fur child and getting her outside really gives me peace of mind. He’s incredibly considerate and punctual. Having him this summer has made this career transition so much easier for my fur child and myself and as long as my finances allow, I’ll be reaching out to him for services. Thanks Kenji!”

“Samantha was wonderful and did a great job checking in on our little 10 yr old cat Obie. This was our first time using her and she was very quick to respond to my inquiry. Samantha was courteous, polite and very consistent with daily updates on Rover without issue. Obie seemed to enjoy her visits and company as well!”

About: Hi! I grew up locally on Fox Island with my family. We’ve always had 1-2 dogs at a time from puppy to elder. I’ve always taken on the responsibility that comes with dogs from a young age to now - feeding, play time, walks, cleaning and overall care. I have been active on Rover for the last three years and currently operate my own LLC. I reside in a quiet neighborhood at a dead end street with my five year old son - who is also great with dogs! My house includes a large fully fenced backyard - plenty of room for running, ball tossing and lounging. I have a flexible schedule which allows for ample potty breaks, outdoor time as well as extra care and attention! I work 2 miles from my house part time M-F, 9 am - 2 pm with a mid day outside break for dogs on my lunch break. I host multiple client’s pets at a time and am only taking on dogs that are friendly and get a long with other dogs. I do not currently have any pets of my own and have added interior cameras to monitor dogs if I’m away. I work with two local sitters as well to accommodate additional outdoor time, play time and potty breaks.
“Great pet sitter! She did an amazing job during her drop-in visits with my cats and provided good pictures with her updates. Would definitely use her services in the future.”
“Adam was great with our cats! He took great care of them and was very patient with our cat who tends to hide under the bed around strangers. He also sent lots of wonderful pictures. Highly recommended.”
About: Former mental-health professional who is happily shifting my career from mental health & behavioral health counseling to full-time animal care—because honestly, dogs have always been my favorite therapy clients! I fully understand fear, trauma, and behavior at a deep level. I have no other dogs in the home, no cats and no children which offers a unique experience compared to the usual doggy daycare. For years I have been the go to Foster for local rescues for complex medical and emotional needs dogs. For nearly 15 years I’ve volunteered and fostered with local rescues and shelters, helping many dogs find calm, confidence, and their forever homes. I hold canine CPR & first-aid certification, I have extensive training in dog behavior and positive-reinforcement techniques, and I’m currently studying for my CPDT-KA professional dog trainer certification. When your dog stays with me, they are literally the only guest in my home. They have full run of the house and fully fenced backyard, sleep wherever they feel most secure (many choose right in bed with me), and receive gentle, constant companionship in an ultra-low-stress environment. I work from home, have no children present, no other animals and I am the only person in my home. My fully fenced, spacious backyard gives them plenty of room to zoom, play, or just sunbathe while I’m never more than a room away. • To ensure a comfortable and professional experience for both my clients and myself, I do not accept house-sitting bookings in homes with active indoor cameras or audio recording devices. Outdoor security cameras (such as doorbell cameras or cameras monitoring the exterior of the property) are absolutely fine. If there are any cameras or recording devices in the home, I simply ask that they be disclosed before booking so we can make sure we’re a good fit for one another. Canine CPR certified and comfortable with injections, fluids, seizure meds, tubes — whatever your dog needs. No kids, no pets, no chaos—just peace and snuggles Your dog lives like family: free roam, couch cuddles, my bed if wanted, constant company, daily yard play, fresh meals, meds, love—never crated or alone.
About: My experience in pet care spans several years, during which I have cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, and small pets. I am adept at providing essential care such as feeding, grooming, and exercise, as well as administering medications when necessary. I prioritize the well-being and comfort of pets under my care, ensuring they receive love, attention, and a safe environment. Pet care fits into my schedule through careful planning and dedication. I allocate specific times each day for feeding, grooming, exercise, and playtime, ensuring that pets receive the attention they need. This structured approach helps me balance their needs with my other responsibilities, such as work or school commitments. Additionally, I prioritize flexibility to accommodate unexpected events or emergencies, ensuring that pets always receive consistent and reliable care. This commitment allows me to maintain a harmonious routine that benefits both pets and their owners. In my approach to caring for pets, whether at my own home or at a client's residence, I maintain a consistent and attentive routine tailored to the needs of each individual animal: **Caring for Pets in My Home:** 1. **Dedicated Space:** I provide a safe and comfortable area within my home where pets can relax and feel at ease. 2. **Regular Exercise:** Daily walks, play sessions, and opportunities for exploration are integrated into their schedule. 3. **Nutritional Care:** I ensure pets receive balanced meals according to their dietary requirements, with access to fresh water at all times. 4. **Grooming:** Regular brushing, grooming, and hygiene maintenance are part of their routine to keep them clean and healthy. 5. **Social Interaction:** Pets receive companionship and attention throughout the day to prevent loneliness and promote mental stimulation. **Caring for Pets in Client's Home:** 1. **Respectful Environment:** I follow the homeowner's guidelines for pet care and house rules to maintain a harmonious environment. 2. **Routine Maintenance:** Feeding, watering, and bathroom breaks are performed according to the pet's usual schedule to minimize disruption. 3. **Activity and Engagement:** I engage pets in activities they enjoy, such as playtime, walks, or training exercises. 4. **Health Monitoring:** Observing for any signs of illness or discomfort, and promptly notifying the owner if concerns arise. 5. **Home Security:** Respecting the security protocols of the client's home, ensuring doors are securely locked and any alarms are set as instructed. In both settings, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets entrusted to my care, maintaining open communication with owners to provide updates and ensure peace of mind while they are away.
“Deborah is clearly a dog lover. She has a lot of experience not only working professionally with dogs but also clearly as a dog owner and lover herself. My pup Josie and I met her for the first time today for a drop-in and Deborah clearly loves dogs and knows how to connect with them. My pup was instantly at ease with her and spent a good long time playing fetch. All in all a great experience.”
“Winnie texted pics to let us know our animals looked just fine with us gone. Even our recluse cat was there to greet us and he never appears for awhile after we’ve been gone! He must have felt comfortable with her there. We are looking forward to Winnie pet sitting for us again.”
“Chloe was fantastic!!! Not only did she help with a last-minute booking, but she also took my boys for a walk in the rain. She was supposed to just stay in the house and play, but had to make a quick pivot to accommodate my roommate moving his things out of the house. Thank you so much Chloe!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fox Island
Russell was absolutely wonderful with our girl, Moose! From the beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving her in his care. He was kind, attentive, dependable, and clearly has a love for dogs. Russell took Moose on walks and sent us photos and updates while we were away, which we really appreciated. Seeing her happy and comfortable gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for Moose! We would absolutely trust Russell with her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their dog like their own.
This is the first time we have used Katiana. She came highly recommended from our neighbor. She dropped in the week before her visit to meet the dogs. Then she was very prompt about her arrival time when we had her stop to take care of the dogs midday. We will be relying on her for multiple-day needs in the future.

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fox Island choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

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 .
