“Jermey is the only person I leave Rosie with! He always updates me with pictures and she has such a good time over there with the kids and other dogs! I usually have to drag her off to leave lol Best dog service!”
“She's been in the business for a while, and this type of thing seems very natural for her. We were very comfortable leaving our dog Vinny with her for the weekend, and it went great. Thanks Val! :)”
“Becky is exactly perfect for my situation! My dog thrives when he can be included in whatever is going on, and Becky and her three boys made my FOMO 3-year old poodle feel so at home that I think he misses them and didn't miss me! He followed Becky around and she took him to the dog park and she managed his broken leg splint like a pro! Thank you so much, Becky! We'll be back!”
“Diahann is great! This was our two dogs first time with a sitter and they did really good. Diahann was very communicative, sending updates with photos every day. I think anyone would be lucky to have her as a sitter. Thanks you Diahann!”
“Ethan did a great job caring for my dog! My dog can be finicky, and Ethan was able to win him over right away. Great communication and easy last minute booking. Thank you, Ethan!”
“Bobbi is fantastic. She’s very friendly, communicates quickly, and kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay. She sent lots of pictures and updates on how he was doing, including all the new friends he made. I would definitely recommend Bobbi and would happily book with her again!”
“Kaitlin and her husband Nathan took excellent care of my little dog Molly. This is the first time I left her alone with someone else, for over a couple weeks. They helped Molly transition from having a minor separation anxiety, to become fully comfortable by the end of the stay. They cared for her like their own dog. Kaitlin sent photo updates every few days. I recommend Kaitlin, and would book with her again!”
“Kristine was absolutely amazing! She was so caring and professional with my sweet boy, Marlie. She kept me in the loop with regular updates and pictures of Marlie while he was under her care. She even took a last-minute call for boarding because of a family event. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for boarding in Puyallup and the surrounding areas. I was completely satisfied with her service!”
“Jennifer took great care of my Ava birdie! She was communicative, sent pictures, and asked questions to ensure proper care. I am relieved to find someone who enjoys my birdie and takes good care of her! Highly recommend!”
“First time using rover and found Noelle to be a great fit for our 2 bigger dogs. She has years of experience with animals and it shows in her attention to detail and the level of care she provided. We got updates with pictures and videos all through their stay. She took them on walks, they got a chance to play with her own dogs. They came back to us happy and worn out! We will definitely use Noelle again!”
“Ashleigh's is the first home we've ever allowed our two pups to stay. She makes them feel part of her family, and treats us just as well. Dealing with her is always a joy!”
“Melody was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She’s very sweet, patient, and clearly loves animals. She has two adorable, playful little Chihuahuas, and there’s plenty of space for the dogs to run around, play, and get comfortable. I felt completely at ease leaving my pup with her and would happily book with her again.”
“Katrina and her family were great with dog, Louie. We were in Thailand for two weeks but the pictures and updates that Katrina would send helped us to miss him just a little bit less. They took great care of him and we are already planning our next trip :)”
“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!”
“Sheena is absolutely AMAZING! She sent me so many pictures, videos and updates. My coco girl is anxious and unsure of everyone but loved Sheena and her family so much! Will definitely be using them again 🥰”
“Tony and Krista are fantastic sitters. They are genuine and reliable, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. It’s great to feel free to travel and know that your pet is well cared for.”
“Marlena and her family were loving, caring, and communicative during my dogs stay. They sent lots of photos, handled his food aggression with other dogs perfectly, and even helped with training during his stay! He stayed over the holidays so they let him open his presents as well. They truly love and care for animals and have training and experience to do so. I would highly recommend them!”
“Kristin and her family as always are amazing! She does a phenomenal giving our dog Weatherly a home away from home. The whole family chips in to provide the love, care, and attention to our dog. We've already rebooked her for our next vacation.”
“Great sitter for our playful goldendoodle. Jordin is very communicative and sends plenty of updates. She’s super friendly and is flexible with scheduling. We’re definitely going to rebook with her during our short stay here in Tacoma. 👍🏽”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hillhurst
Madison was friendly and very good to my dog. She was helpful to my dog when she had issues with her ongoing ear problem. She handled the situation with care but did not overreact or cause me worry while I was out of town. She was also communicative and kept me updated about my dog. She was very knowledgeable about her needs and Sandy came home a happy pup. Madison is a great dog sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. 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 Hillhurst home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Hillhurst.
<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 Hillhurst sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. 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.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
