“Darby is wonderful! We are proud repeat customers. Darby is flexible, responsive and super kind. I feel very comfortable leaving our girls with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”


“Alyssa was such a great pet sitter to my little dog Ella! She first of all was able to help me on such short notice and that was super appreciated. She sent me some pictures and let me know how my dog was doing for the couple of hours she was with her. Thanks so much for taking such good care of my fur baby!”



“Amy did an awesome job watching Orion, we got updates throughout the day and when we got home after picking him up he went right to sleep! Can’t wait to have her watch him again.”


“Noelle is the best. She was so kind and accommodating to my last-minute day care request, and my dog Peaches really warmed up to her and her dogs. I appreciate that she shared updates and was so easy to communicate with, and Peaches looked like she was having a blast in all the photos Noelle sent. Peaches was so happy and relaxed when I picked her up. If we’re in the area again, I’d definitely book her again!”


“My pup Jack had a great stay with Mollie and her family. I needed help with a long day and they were there for me. He came home tired and calm, ready to sleep!”

“Val was very accommodating on short notice and with a holiday weekend. She sent photo updates of the boys during the stay. The great thing was as soon as we pulled up to the house the pups were very excited and when they came home you would have thought they went to camp, they were so happy! I recommend and would ask Val to watch my pups again.”


“Jeannine is absolutely the best! She is super kind, communicative, and really cares about dogs! Amani is always excited to arrive at her home and is tired when she gets home! Jeannine is a wonderful example of the kind of sitter you’d want to watch your fur baby! I love all the photos and videos and her quick responses! And a super bonus is she is an expert with German Shepherds! Truly a gem in Tacoma!!!! I highly recommend her services!!!”

About: I had 2 dogs of my own. One for 16 years & a rescue for 14., both which I had to put down due to old age. I have been fostering for about a year. I fostered a momma dog & 5 puppies. What a task but I loved them so much I am retired & am flexible with my time. I don’t go a lot of places but will walk your fur baby as needed. I really need to fill my loneliness from losing my dogs. Even though it has been a while since they passed. I just recently got a chihuahua. I have a 3 foot fenced yard, and I would take your dog on walks when I have them. I am trustworthy to dog sit at your residence if desired.

“Brittany and David were great!! It was Odie's first time staying with them, and they treated Odie as part of the family. They sent great pics, and he had so much fun he passed out when we got home. I would highly recommend them! Odie has a home away from home!”


About: I have taken care of pets practically my entire life! I have tons of experience with many breeds and temperaments, and have two dogs of my own. I am able to adjust to any schedule your pet may need to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I know how difficult it can be to be away from your loved fur babies so I try to send a good amount of pictures and updates to keep you informed. I have a fully fenced yard with lots of space to run and play, and a surplus of toys my dogs would love to share. I am able to have a flexible schedule and can work with whatever schedule your pet needs to make sure they are comfortable and well taken care of. Dedicated pet sitter prioritizing safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. Whether in your home or mine, I tailor care to suit each pet's needs. I create a secure setting and build a trusting relationship, ensuring your furry friends feel at ease during their stay.

“Heather puts so much thought and heart into her care is easily at the top of my list of people that I trust most to watch after my boy! I seriously cannot recommend Heather enough, I am so grateful for her services!”


About: With over 40 years of experience caring for pets, I bring a deep understanding and genuine respect for all animals. I currently have a senior dog, fish and chickens. Over the years I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets including dogs, cats, small rodents, fish, reptiles, birds, and even insects. I have experience caring for senior dogs, providing daily wound care, administering oral medication, and assisted potty breaks. I have worked with and rehabilitated rescue dogs who required 24-hour supervision, guiding them with gentle reassurance and love so they could learn to trust humans again and enjoy their new lives. Dog parents have trusted me to care for their pets while they were on vacation or attending all day events even before I began using the Rover app. No matter your pet’s needs, you can feel confident they’ll be in capable hands while you are away, and that they’ll be happy and loved in my care. While I stay busy with some community activities, I have a flexible schedule allowing me to dedicate focused, loving care to every pet I look after. Whether I am pet sitting in your home or boarding your pet at my own home, you can feel confident that your pet will be safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

Leann K.
“My name is Elisha and I'm writing you today about Leann. I have had the please to see first hand how big Leann's heart is. Shortly after her Anne passed away she began fostering dogs. Her first adventure was with a German Shepherd and her 5 puppies. When it was time she took the mama dog and puppies back and within days ALL the puppies and mama had found forever homes. Then there was Rufous. He had a brain injury and would have seizures. He had chew toys that she bought for him that he would have to figure out how to get the treat from it. She said it was to stimulate his brain. She made sure he got his medicine on time every day and would call me if she thought she was going to be 1 min late. Then there was Cindy she was terrified of people. But LeAnn was so compassionate with her that in the short time Cindy was with her she was playing with LeAnn letting her pet her belly and coming when she called her. LeAnn is great with dogs. I would let LeAnn dog sit my dog anytime. She is a great person with a big heart.”

Samantha B.
“Love love love Samantha. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who can give your pup attention, she’s the one. She’s super thoughtful and responsive. Highly recommend!”


Angela F.
“I have known Angie for years and trust her implicitly with my dog. She is kind and loving yet she’s also good with verbal commands and getting even stubborn dogs to pay attention to her. She just has this energy about her. My dog loves her and my dog is very timid with people, but she gets very excited every time she gets to see Angie. Angie is very good about making sure that dogs get proper exercise. She is very good about adhering to any dietary needs. She’s also great at taking care of any medical emergency that may arise with your pet along with giving medications, wound dressing or whatever medical needs your dog may have. She is very familiar with caring for geriatric animals as well. I never have to worry about leaving my dog with her. She’s grounded, responsible and kind.”
