1. Gina H.
“We had a mixup on the house key (my fault) and Gina contacted us as soon as she discovered the problem. She proposed an alternative to gain access to the house and all went well. She took pictures, showed up to take care of Rose on time, and we feel she did a great job.”
2. Kerry K.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I wasn’t sure how it would go as one of my dogs doesn’t warm up to new people very well. When Kerry came for our meet and greet with in 20 mins my dog was totally in love with her. I felt my girls were in good hands. While I was gone I leaved hearing and see pictures of how things were going. I could see the girls were happy and that made me happy. I will definitely be using Kerry again for my next trip.”

“Shannon did a great job watching our cat bubba. Shannon kept me appraised about his care as well as any issues in the house, she even fought off some ants that were moving in on his dish. We will use her again in future.”
8. Alicia R.
“Alicia is fantastic! Our full size active doggie had a great time with Alicia, and she warmly helped our cat out too. She's a real pro with animals, and helped us exactly during the time slot we needed to get our dog out on the beach for a long romp and great time. Her communication is excellent, and she went above and beyond on a number of little items to keep our pets fed, exercised and happy. Alicia is very nice and personable too. We are so happy to find Alicia as we can leave town happily knowing our pets are in awesome hands with her.”
9. Stephanie S.
About: Hi, My name is Steph. I have been a veterinary technician for 10 years, I have had many years of experience in high volume critical pet care. I am also trained with exotic care from reptiles and amphibians, pocket pets, and avians; let me know if there’s a small one at home that needs attention as well. My passion is caring for critters of all sizes, and I believe in doing right by humans and their companions. I am capable of walking, feeding, bathing, and medicating any pet. I spend my free time with my 6yr old son; who also shares the same passion for animals. Please contact me to cuddle and play with your fur babies while you’re away! I can do drop-ins and walks all around the Washington Peninsula. With being a full time parent I need at least a full days notice before any cancellations due to working around child care. So please notify asap. Each household is different, and each owner has their own way of caring for the pet. I will care for your kiddos as if they were my own. We can schedule meet and greets to make sure there is complete communication and understanding of your pets’ needs. When it comes to pet’s with high energy it’s important to stimulate the mentally and physically with play and walks. With being in the veterinary field as a tech you never know what kind of animal or quirky personality is going to walk through the door. No matter how big or small; I pride myself on practicing “less is more” and “going slow” with each kiddo. When going on walks I believe it’s important to be vigilant and aware of your surroundings. Paying attention to the dog’s behavior is a must, you never know what a dog may sense and be alerting you to. Each corner is new and and you never know what could be lurking. I was raised around all kinds of animals from livestock, poultry, dogs and cats, reptiles/amphibians, as well as avians. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 kittens and a small parrot. While I’m gone my dogs are kenneled to keep them out of trouble, and we walk at least 3-4 times per week. I hope to build your confidence with me while I care for your most precious and loved furry friends!
10. Courtney B.
“Courtney is a great sitter. She put up with my cancelling and rescheduling my trips and was very open about availability. She followed my instructions and gave my Katie some love when she approached her but let her hide when she felt the need. I look forward to having her care for Katie again when I leave for a longer trip.”
11. Savannah P.
“Savannah was great! My puppy had a great time and didn’t seem stressed at all, even though he can be scared of new people. Would definitely book again!”

“Mitch took fantastic care of our pups so we could go out of town for the day. We highly recommend him to anyone that is in need of someone to drop in on their four legged family members. We will definitely have him do it again.”
14. Sarah F.
About: I grew up in rural Washington taking care of farm animals and of course, my beloved pups. ❤️ I’ve raised puppies, and taken care of senior fur babies too. I have a pretty flexible schedule, though I usually work 8 am to 4:30 pm. That being said, I can check in multiple times throughout the day for potty breaks and walks. I’m off work on Mondays and Tuesdays, and have a great backyard for dogs to run around in! I have a fully fenced backyard, and a spunky two-year-old Corgi to keep your pup company! I have a crate if you’d like me to use it.
15. Mathieu T.
About: I grew up in the Pacific Northwest. So I’m no stranger to spending time outside and being around all sorts of pets/animals. I’m a park ranger here in Oregon and I love time spent in the outdoors. I was raised around dogs and cats, having been in a family with multiple at any given time. Training puppies, senior dog care, medication administering, or just walking/feeding and having adventures, it’s all second nature to me. I’m always somewhere on a trail with my pup, Grey. I try to remain active and/or productive on a daily basis. From running errands to daily exercise, I always find ways to keep myself busy. I find my days and plans go by pretty fun and easily with my pup coming with me. It's a lot easier to incorporate pets into plans if thought of carefully and correctly. I always try to make any atmosphere I'm in one of positivity and comfort. I believe in having a welcoming home and disposition. Whether I'm at my home or visiting another, I put the care and needs of the pets I'm around at the top of my priority list.
16. Jordyn L.
“Jordyn has been very patient with my recently adopted shelter dog. He’s a large 2 yr old shepherd mix who is wary of strangers. Jordyn’s calm demeanor is exactly what my dog needs to be able to rebuild his social skills. Thank you Jo!”
17. Keli V.
“Keli has extensive background in everything pet related! From watching my personal pets to experience with a free-roam dog daycare setting, pet supplies, nutrition, and animal behavior.

19. Emily B.
“Emily is trustworthy and responsible. I don’t have to give a second thought when she’s watching our princess - I know she’s safe. Our fur baby loves her to pieces and wiggles when we tell her that ‘Emmie’ is coming.”
20. Taylor Y.
“I'm so happy to recommend Taylor as a pet caregiver. When I left my dog, Mr. Snuggles, in her care, it was clear she has a real love for animals. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which was very reassuring. Mr. Snuggles got all the love, attention, and exercise he needed. Taylor went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and happy. Thanks, Taylor, for taking such great care of Mr. Snuggles”
