“Brooklyn is great with Maizie. When Maizie sees her, she gets so excited to go on a walk. It's so helpful to have someone who can commit and help my girl get the activity she needs when I'm working. I love the updates on Maizie's feelings that are part of the walk.”

“Vivian was so great with our border collie. She has a past injury to her trachea so walking can be difficult for her, she was so patient with her and took her time. I definitely recommend her!”

“Lyla was awesome and was able to book on short notice! I am recovering from surgery and needed someone to give my dogs some exercise and she was just the right fit. Will definitely be booking again!!”

About: I have lived with both cats and dogs since I could walk. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, grooming, and playing with many pets since I was 8 years old. I have experience in caring for senior animals, herding dogs, and puppies/kittens. I also independently trained my family's border collie on things like recall and other basic commands. I am available 24/7 to cat or dog sit, walk your dogs, or play with your pets while you can't be with them. I personally own 6 pets (4 cats and 2 dogs) who I take care of with the help of my family. I love to spend time cuddling, playing, and offering enrichment to all pets when I am with them. This may look like playing with toys, taking dogs for walks, working on basic commands, or just quality time.
About: I have taken care of a dog, a cat, and farm animals since I was 12 years old. I love walking long distances with my dog. I am also very good at reading animal body language and I know how to do all of the basic animal care necessities. I am currently working from home so I would have lots of time for walks and hikes and play. I will make sure your dog comes home happy and tired. I do have a golden retriever and our schedule that your dog would also follow unless they’re special needs is we wake up at seven am, we go outside to go potty, then feed them they play and rest then we go for a walk. We love our Whipple Creek 🌲❤️ Trail then we drive home and rest. Then later I give them their second feeding, take them out to go to the bathroom and take a small walk in our neighborhood before it’s time to rest and chill and head to bed. I live in a cozy gated apartment with my husband, Greg and my golden retriever. My husband works as a in-home caregiver and when he gets home he helps me out. He is also an animal lover, and if I am housesitting, he travels with me as well as my very friendly golden retriever. I promise as a married couple we will respect your house and environment we will also bring our own sleeping equipment and we don’t mind doing house chores.
“Big heart and very patient with our extra large puppy who has lots of energy! Reliable and detailed in following directions for meds and our handling preferences. Our pup loves Tracy and we feel confident leaving her in Tracy's care. Great job!”
“Kat was very good with my pup. Shes on time, very good with communication and most of provided excellent care for my pup. My shepherd was happy to be her ...such a wonderful vibe.”

About: Hi, I'm Jenny! I have over 3 years of experience pet sitting, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing medication. I have experience with high energy, timid, low energy, large breeds, small breeds, counter surfers, etc. I work from home so your pet(s) will have constant companionship and regular potty breaks. Since I am always home, I can accommodate for what pick up and drop off times work best for your schedule. Your dog will feel right at home in our cozy, spacious house with a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play. We provide a comfortable, welcoming environment where dogs can relax, explore, and get plenty of attention. In our household, we have two dogs of our own. One small breed and one larger breed, both super sweet and friendly towards other dogs. Due to my owning a small dog and that I provide a safe and social environment for multiple pets at a time, I am unable to host aggressively rough-playing breeds. While I do sometimes have multiple furry guests, I always ensure each dog receives individual attention and has their own resting space.
About: I have always been a lover of animals and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I have previously worked as a Licensed Veterinary Technician for 5 years, in both small and large animal practices. I have also had many of my own animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, donkeys and alpacas. Animals have always been a central part of my life. Due to my previous work as a licensed vet tech I am comfortable with administering medications or handling special care your animal may need. I have experience in caring for animals of all ages, including senior animals. Thank you for your time, I look forward to meeting and caring for your pets! I am currently a stay at home mom which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I am available to do most early mornings, afternoons, as well as evenings. I have been pet sitting off and on for the past 15 years. I try my best to match the routine your pets are accustomed to while they are in my care. I am also a very detail oriented person and make sure to keep things neat during my visits.
“Our doggie loves his walks with Sarah! He recognizes her car, and actually watches for her when he thinks the time is right. She's punctual and friendly, and an obvious dog lover.”

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs and cats my entire life, including currently owning a German Shepherd. I am comfortable taking care of dogs and cats of all ages and giving medication if needed. I am a teacher on summer break so I generally have a pretty open schedule to spend lots of time with your pet. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, or to come stay with your pet. Due to my own dog, I cannot currently host any pets in my own home. I am happy to come stay with your pet or drop-in as needed. I am committed to following your pets normal routines and any specific directions to keep your pet as safe and comfortable as possible.
About: I had such a great experience with rover when I was on vacation I decided to sign up! I have always had a pet in my home and I know how important it is to have a responsible pet sitter to care for them. I can house sit, watch pets in my home, do drop in visits you name it. If you have a special request just ask! I have a spoiled 9 lb chiweenie name Bo. I live in a house with a yard in the country. I’m a teacher so I work Monday through Friday and have the normal school breaks like Christmas and summer. We would love to care for you babies! Let me know if you have questions. Sara, Billie, JJ & Mr. Bojangles
“Francisca was amazing! She went above and beyond while I went out of town for 7 days. I was so anxious to leave my pup alone and Francisca made me feel so comfortable. She gave great daily communication and updates. She took my pup to run some errands and even spent extra time with my pupper after the walks to make her feel safe (My dog and I have never been apart that long). I could see on the house camera that she treated my pup/my home with such respect and treated my pup and if she were her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Francisca to another seeking a walker/sitter and I will definitely be using her in the future! I think I even made a friend! ?❤️”

About: Hello! I live in Vancouver and currently have a cute 3 year old Pomsky and am looking to add more friends for the great walk of life. I am currently on working full time and 3 kiddos, but If I have enough notice I may be able to go on walks during the week! Pets are like another child to me. I strive to provide my pet with the best care, love and of course delicious treats! Your pet is in good hands
“Chelsea you are amazing - reliable, friendly and good with Laney! I like that you let me know your arrival time for each walk. This allows me time to prepare Laney for her walk. Thank you!”

About: Hi all! My name is Peyton, I'm 20, and from Vancouver, Washington. I recently worked at the Humane Society for Southwest Washington for nearly 2 years, where I was an Animal Care Technician, working with all types of animals, including small animals like rabbits/hamsters, as well as reptiles, with a focus in feline care and behavior management. Here I performed basic animal husbandry like feeding, cleaning, and daily monitoring for changes in health, to small and large animal handling, handling and administering medications/medication schedules, special diets, managing animals with diabetes, administering vaccinations, wound/infection/fungus/stitch care, and working with and managing animals with behavioral struggles from all different backgrounds, genetic or epigenetic causes. Also a large part of my job being picking up poo of course! Unfortunately I had to leave my position at HSSW due to going to college for Animal Rehabilitation, which is why I'm now here on Rover, to stay connected with the animals, as well as to help support my journey! Alls to say, I’m certified in animal safety and Fear Free, with a professional background in animal handling, behavior, and medical needs. I have 3 smaller fur babies, all of which are rescues. Lulu, 12 y/o English Bulldog (still kickin' it, I know!), Piggy 4 y/o Micro-Bully, and Heather an 8 y/o Staffordshire Bull Terrier, who was rescued from a popular dog fighting facility in Houston, TX. This had caused some nervous and defensive behaviors within her, but she has taught me more than any animal has ever taught me, especially on how to manage these types of behavioral situations that feel hopeless. However, through patience and perseverance, today she's living a normal and silly dog life, you would never be able to tell what she has gone through now, she is now my dog that teaches other dogs how to dog properly! Back to why I call them my small fur babies, my family also has a dairy farm of about 30+ cows! Here I also provide basic animal husbandry, and have gained experience in large animal handling and behavior management, so don't worry about your Great Dane or Mastiff! With this I participated in 4-H for about 8 years, helping others on large animal/livestock handling, health, procedures, and agricultural education. Predominantly though, I have grown up with and cared for all different types of dogs. And to not forget the little guys if there's any fellow fish tank enthusiasts out there, I have lots of experience in owning and caring for different types of freshwater fish, including bettas, pea puffers, goldfish, etc. Last but not least, I've also had hamsters personally alongside caring for them professionally. Overall, I have heavy personal and professional experience with all types of animals, whether that's flat-faced or scaly, sleepy or the energy of 10 huskies, and from the smallest to the biggest pets, whether that's literally, mentally, or in their heart. If you've made it this far, thank you so much for your time and trust, and I hope all is well for you and yours! :) I'm currently in college for Animal Rehabilitation and for safety reason as of now, I unfortunately cannot do overnights. I'm mostly available during the weekdays, from early morning, to evenings and shorter same-day notice booking will depend on how short of notice due to time, location, and my college class schedule. Weekends are more difficult for me due to personal responsibilities, but I am not completely unavailable, please don't be afraid to ask! You, your pets, and your homes privacy, safety, and quality of care is extremely important to me. If you're unhappy with any service please do not be afraid to let me know so I can do better. Before providing a service I will ask and make sure of any parameters and instructions you might have, and will uphold them. It's also a promise that I will communicate thoroughly with you on general updates, and if I have any questions or concerns, and I will be sure to take pics of your fur baby to share with you! I will do all in my power to give them the same level of care as you would, or if they were my own. As for my home, I have a 6-foot fenced, average sized yard lined with river rock, as well as a side yard bedded with bark dust if your pup prefers to do business there. I currently have 3 female mature dogs, so boarding is very dependent on what you think of your pets compatibility. Due to this boarding is stricter with dogs and puppies rather than small animals but inquiries are always welcome!
About: I have always had a dog since I was a kid, when I was a teenager I used to walk dogs around my neighborhood. I also volunteered for an animal rescue. Now, I work for an animal urgent care and have experience with both dogs and cats, as well as own my own dog and cat. I'm currently working full time, so for boarding your pet may be alone while I'm at work unless they are kennel trained they can go to work with me. I will be taking them on walks before and after work. I work 10 hour shifts Monday through Thursday. I have one dog who is young and loves to play all day! I can kennel your pet if needed, as well as my own. I have fenced land for the dogs to run and play.
Hockinson dog parents share their Rover experiences
I needed someone last minute for a walk for my new, anxious dog, and Addison was more than happy to watch him! She was very communicative and sent lots of pics during the walk and did awesome with him. He was still tired from all their playing when I got home from work. Will definitely be booking again!
