“Morgan is great, we couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter. Our dog stayed with her while we were in Hawaii for a week. Ruby came home happy and even ate all her food which she usually doesn’t do when we have to leave her behind, clearly our dog was right at home with Morgan. We are definitely hoping to use Morgan in the future anytime we can’t take our dog with us. Thank you!”
“Kirsten and her family are wonderful furbaby sitters. Bodhi always has a great time while he’s there and comes home exhausted! We enjoy the pictures she sends and know that he’s having fun, while we are too!”
“Samantha is a wonderful and sweet person who took great care of Milo! She was super understanding about Milo’s reactivity towards other dogs/people and sent lots of pics every day ☺️ She’s a great communicator and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Jennifer took great care of our little dude - he can be a bit shy but after one meet and greet I knew he would be happy there. It was host first time with her and it seems he settled in quickly and really took to Jennifer. We appreciate her communication and photos and look forward to booking with her again!”
“Another phenomenal stay with Kizzie! She made sure our kitty felt safe and loved by spending lots of time with her. Hildy was clearly very content during her time there. We’ll definitely be a repeat customer!”
“This was the first time leaving Lolo with Daniel, Joelle & Co for more than 1 day. She stayed a whole week, and I could tell from my communication with them that she was being well taken care of & loved. They accommodated to her neediness, so she didn't even have to adapt to a new way of life! When I came to pick her up, she was excited to see me, but calm, and not pushing to get out & jump in my car immediately. She wanted to sniff around their yard & block before leaving. I can tell she loves them & they love her, which is a wonderful feeling. I'm happy that I missed her way more than she missed me!”
“I have all great things to say about Priscilla! We booked her for the first time last minute. She was able to find time during the week for our dogs to meet her pup and her. She has a fantastic back yard for lots of play. She was super communicative and best of all the boys loved her! We have 2 cattle dog mix puppies that can be a bit of a handful at times and she managed them like a dream. We will be booking with her again in the future!”
“Great experience boarding my dog w Larissa for 3 nights. Leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, but she made the whole process so easy and reassuring. Communication was great the entire time & I really appreciated the daily updates/photos while I was away. My dog can be pretty independent & likes doing his own thing & she really seemed to understand his personality & made him feel comfortable. When he was picked up, he was relaxed, happy & clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust Larissa again in the future & I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.”
“Kathy was absolutely lovely! She clearly knows her dogs, what they need and how to best interact with them so the pet and petsitter have a positive experience. Jackson felt right at home, and he loved the big backyard. He lots of supervised freedom. Knowing Jack was in good hands allowed me to focus on my work trip without worrying about my little guy. Kathy called him a "dream boy." Of course, I agree. But more than that, I am glad they bonded and she made it easy for him to adapt to his new environment. 100% recommend!”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Nari! Throughout the booking process and the stay itself, she was very friendly and responsive. We got lots of pictures of our pup playing with her two sweet dogs. We would absolutely book with her again when the situation arises!”
“Mariko was awesome with our Milo! She sent updates with pictures which put our mind at ease. Look no further if you are looking for a reliable sitter who genuinely loves dogs. Thanks Mariko!”
“Fast and easy communication from initial meet and greet to scheduling the boarding stay. Lily our senior pup has many "particulars" that did not scare Chris from accepting her into his home. Chris has a bright and air conditioned pet space which opens into a yard (no steps) that Lily thoroughly enjoyed. Chris was especially attentive to Lily's needs during the 4th fireworks. Thank you! Thank you for all the updates and pics during Lily's stay! I'm glad she made friends with Petey and Finn too!”
“Brandon is always great with Finn, and I’m not sure which of the two are more excited for the visit. Fantastic with communication and considerate of the time zones and my strange work schedules when I’m away for updates.”
“What a wonderful host for our special needs pug - didn't have to worry at all that she gave him the very best care when we had to be away for a family emergency. I'm sure he'll miss his little vacation!”
“Qi was a great & responsive host! Pepper got to play with other dogs & passed out when he got home. She was very patient with Pepper through his puppy shenanigans, as well. I appreciate Qi’s last minute availability which allowed me to get away for a quick weekend for July 4th. Will book again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gig Harbor
Shannon was amazing! What a great person & dog sitter. My older dog Stella is relaxed but has a few habits, and I’m always a little particular with who she stays with in general. From the moment we met, I know she’d be in safe hands & Shannon often sent updates/photos. I could tell she was cared for as if she was their dog! Thank you Shannon & your lovely family for providing Stella a safe, loving home 🧡🐶

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 .
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.

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.
