“Hitha was great with our four cats, very friendly and they seemed comfortable around her. She listened to all special care needs and communicated well. She took our request on a last minute basis when we were going on a special trip out of town and a previous sitter didn’t work out, so she really saved us! Would highly recommend her services.”

About: I am currently new to Rover but I am an experienced dog walker. I have taken care of 10+ dogs in King County and have received many five star reviews regarding my on-demand dog walking service. I understand the body language of dogs and know how to communicate with dogs effectively. I also know the area well and know where to go for walks to ensure a safe and fun experience. I work flexible hours and can easily move things around to do pet care. I am normally available every day except for Sundays. I have done dog walking in the morning, around noon and in the evening. I have done dozens of on-demand dog walking. Every dog is unique. But yet they all share the same need of love and care. I aspire to make the dog walks safe, fun and full of love.
“Thank you so much! We dound Meow-Meow very happy to see us and we loved the daily card reports you sent over and those cute pictures. That made us feel very confortable with leaving her in good hands. Also thank you much for making sure our delivered packages were safe, and the extra little things.”

“Excellent sitter! Provided honest and prompt updates after each check-in/visit, and always included several photos of the cat! 10/10 would recommend. Her love for animals is demonstrated”

“Britney and her husband did a great job dropping in on my pups! They were communicative, punctual, and accommodated my schedule. Most importantly my pups liked them!”

“Bailey did an absolutely incredible job taking care of my cat Benny while I was out of town over the holidays! She was super communicative, took lots of photos and left detailed updates, and I can tell Benny had a blast with her! Bailey was an absolute sweetheart and I would recommend her to anyone, and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!!”

About: I am loving and someone you can trust. I do my best to understand them and meet their needs. I love them all as if they were my own babies. I help them take them out and about and meet their needs. If they are happy with me, I will be happy too. Rest assured. My priority is their safety and happiness. I take care of everything about them myself. I don't let them walk in places I don't find safe. I take them home safely and hand them over to their family.
“在Rover上约了Lydia小姐姐照顾我们家两只性格完全不同的猫(一只社牛,一只社恐),体验真的超出预期! 正式上门前,Lydia特意提前来家里熟悉环境,认真记下猫咪的注意事项和用品位置,超贴心~上门后更是细节满分:疯狂给主子们拍写真,铲屎换水添粮一条龙,还会陪玩到两只猫都满意(咱家社恐玩超嗨)。每次服务结束都在Rover上写小作文汇报+狂发照片,本铲屎官隔着屏幕都能感受到猫主子的快乐。强烈安利给所有需要上门喂养的宝子! We have Lydia on Rover to care for our two cats (one social butterfly, one shy baby), and she went above and beyond! Before the first visit, Lydia came over early just to learn their routines and note where everything was. During visits, she spoiled them rotten: tons of photos, pristine litter boxes, fresh water/food, and playtime until even our shy cat was purring! After each visit, she left detailed Rover cards with adorable pics and notes—we felt so connected even while away. 10/10 would recommend to any cat parent!”

“Shana is amazing!!!! She was so wonderful with my sensitive kitty, Aspen. She gave fantastic updates, took some amazing pictures, and treated Aspen like her own. I am so grateful! Thank you Shana!”


“Laura was amazing with Bear- I am so grateful for her help! Our little Bear can be fearful of new people, and Laura was kind and patient with her, which worked very well, allowing me to leave my little Bear with confidence- thank you so much, Laura! My home was also left safe, clean, and secure!”

“Ani was a really great sitter for our two dogs when we were away on a trip for a few days! She’s super friendly and the pups loved her. She provided lots of pics and a summary of each of her visits, and was super flexible for us when plans changed, definitely wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again next time we are out of town!”

“Sandra was so great! She checked in a bunch, and was so lovely with my animals. She even straightened up a bit! Highly recommend! I will be booking with her into the future, instead of trying to rope in friends/family. Thank you Sandra!”

“Amazing! My cat loved all the attention and I could not be happier! Excellent communication and fabulous attention all around. We are so lucky to have found Emily!!”

About: I have years of experience caring for small dogs of all ages, from active puppies to senior dogs. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing extra care for older dogs with special needs. My friendly, neutered poodle mix loves having canine companions and gets along well with other small dogs. We enjoy daily walks, playtime, and trips to local parks. I provide a safe, loving, and active environment for weekend stays and short visits. Your pup will be treated like family! 🐕💕 I work in the office 4 days per week. Dogs receive two daily walks, along with potty breaks approximately every 4 hours. My home is a dog-friendly apartment community with many resident dogs, so guests should be comfortable riding an elevator and being around other dogs in shared spaces. My friendly poodle mix enjoys companionship, and we make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and a comfortable place to relax. We are best suited for social, adaptable small dogs who enjoy being around people and other pups.
About: I have always had lots of pets and loved caring for them! I also have over 5 years of pet-sitting experience for other people and have loved doing that as well! I am currently a college student at a university in Kirkland and have tailored my schedule to work with classes so that I can devote my free time to caring for your pets! I ask for clear instruction on how you would like your pet to be cared for in your home and follow that to keep your pet happy and comfortable!
“Ni took great care of my cat! She is always on time very nice and gentle with my cat, and also playing with her a lot. So many lovely pictures and videos taken and sent to us, really appreciate everything!”

“She took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She was very kind, attentive, and clearly experienced with cats. I really appreciated the updates and photos she shared, which gave me great peace of mind during my trip. My cat looked relaxed and well cared for when I got back. I would definitely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again!”

About: English and Mandarin friendly!🤩 Hi, I’m Serena! I do pet care full-time, and my husband Peter, who works fully remote, helps as well when he’s available. While we are home most of the time, we are not able to provide 24/7 constant supervision. We’re located in Central Houghton. For meet & greets, we usually meet at Everest Park or a nearby park that’s convenient for you. You’re also welcome to ask questions and meet our golden retriever, Google, during the meet & greet. We care for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. Whether your pet is a playful pup, a shy kitty, or a senior who needs extra attention, we provide patient, personalized care to help them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. We’re happy to follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding instructions, medication, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet rest. For safety and comfort, we ask that boarding dogs be crate trained, as crates may be used during meal times, rest time, or when dogs need a calm space to decompress. Please let us know about any allergies, medical needs, dietary restrictions, or anything special we should be aware of. To help us plan our schedule and give every pet the best care, we kindly ask clients to coordinate pick-up and drop-off times with us in advance. Please be on time, or let us know ahead of time if you need to reschedule. An ETA is always appreciated so we can plan our day, meals, and rest time accordingly. For privacy reasons, we’re unable to share details about other clients’ pets staying with us. We also do not offer teeth brushing services, but you’re welcome to bring dental treats or dental chews, and we’re happy to give them at no extra cost. Our goal is to make every pet feel at home while giving owners peace of mind. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I’m doing Rover full-time, with my husband also working from home. This gives me the flexibility to offer consistent and attentive care throughout the day. We also have a large backyard where your pets can play and get plenty of exercise. *Most of our exercise time happens in our large, secure backyard — lots of sniffing, exploring, and playtime while being fully supervised. *For new or anxious dogs, we usually start with yard time only until they settle in. In my home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. With a spacious and secure environment, including a large backyard for play and exercise, I ensure that your pet has plenty of space to move around while staying safe. I keep my home pet-friendly, ensuring there are no hazardous areas or items that could pose a risk. For pets who stay with me, I provide cozy spaces for them to relax, along with regular check-ins and supervision. I also follow any specific instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, or care routines, ensuring consistency for your pet. I treat each pet as part of the family, offering the care and attention they deserve.

She was wonderful with Muffin! She did a great job playing with him and giving him plenty of attention. Muffin seemed very comfortable and happy around her, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated how well she connected with him and would definitely book with her again! :)

We had such a great experience with our dog sitter! Christina took amazing care of Charlie and Luna, and it was clear they were both happy, comfortable, and well looked after. We really appreciated the updates and knowing they were in good hands. We came home to two happy pups! 🐶🐶 We would definitely recommend Christina and would happily book with her again!

She was wonderful with my cat! I really appreciated how attentive she was and how carefully she followed the care guide I provided. She always left detailed notes after each visit, which gave me peace of mind while I was away and helped me know exactly how he was doing. I could tell she genuinely cared about him, and I would definitely book with her again! :)

Laura is top tier. She is consistent, reliable, detail-oriented and communicates clearly. She demonstrates high ownership of her work and acts like a leader when preparing and caring for our two Boston Terriers. She is super sweet to them and it genuinely feels like she likes them in the way she engages with them and spends time with them. We are repeat customers with Laura and are grateful for her partnership. Hire her.

Paola is the best !!!! This was our second time booking her and it is 100% recommended!! She is responsable, she sent us photos and updates always!!! Pipo and Milo love her ! Thank you Paola, they are our babies and we can rest if we have you taking care of them ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Vicky is so caring and loving toward our pets! She has taken such great care of them every time we’ve been away. We always feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in her hands. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly treats our pets like her own. We’re so grateful to have someone we trust so much to look after them. We highly recommend Vicky to anyone looking for a wonderful pet sitter! ❤️
