“Cynthia has been an amazing petsitter for my Schnauzer Scooter! She always kept me updated with photos and videos of my dog, and I could tell Scooter definitely had fun especially getting to socialize with other pups and having plenty of outside time since she has a spacious fenced backyard and she takes the dogs out for a walk! I will definitely be taking Scooter back here whenever I need to 🩷”

“Angela was SO amazing. She was referred to me by my neighbor and did NOT disappoint. She was quick to reply to any and all messages and was super friendly and accommodating. She was picking up my neighbors dogs the same day and offered to pick mine up to which saved me so much time! She was great about updating me on my pup while we were out of town and even took initiative and gave him a bath when he seemed to be a little itchy. 10/10 recommend and will be booking her in the future! Thank you so much Angela and family! Ripley had the best time!”

“Jael and her family made our dog feel right at home! Drop-off and pick-up were quick and easy, and when we returned, our dog was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. We’ve tried kennels before and our pup came back stressed and underweight — but with Jael, it was the complete opposite. Stella ate well, played, and looked so content when we picked her up. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like family, but Jael truly does. We couldn’t recommend her more — 10/10 experience!”

This is our third time with Alexis and she is top notch, trustworthy, professional and kind. We will continue using her service as it gives us peace of mind knowing Walter is in good hands.”

“Leslie provided an excellent boarding experience for our Frenchie, Kahi. My husband and I are always nervous to leave Kahi, but this time we felt more at ease knowing she was in great hands with Leslie. Leslie welcomed Kahi into her home and was knowledgable of what Kahi needed to feel safe and comfortable. She was diligent to provide daily updates and pictures. The pictures showed that Kahi was well-adjusted to Leslie’s home and having a great time playing and bonding with Leslie’s pups. We trusted Kahi was safe with Leslie which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. 10/10 would recommend!”

We got so many photos of Coco on walks, living her best life. It made it much easier to feel at ease, knowing Coco was in good hands. Zeke and Jax were great friends to Coco. Thank you!!”

“If I could give 10 stars, I would because Michael is the best! His property is perfect for dogs -- a huge fenced wooded area with lots of room to run, and when there are more dogs, they have plenty of places to play and things to play with. Best of all, Michael sent us photos and videos every day we were gone, showing us how well Shiloh, our Golden Retriever, was doing. He looked so content I was worried he wouldn't want to leave when it was time to pick him up. I highly recommend Michael, and we won't hesitate to leave Shiloh with him anytime we go out of town!”

About: I am a Physician Assistant who lives and works in Burlington. I have a car that can fit any sized animal/crate if I need for transport. I love running, especially with dogs. I live close to many parks and ball fields. I have pet sat for friends and neighbors since I was 10 and walked/watched multiple dogs on rover. I have watched most breeds and ages of dogs. I grew up with a Jack Russel with anxiety so I am comfortable with dogs who may have limited socialization or behavioral concerns. I work 4 10 hour shifts and my schedule often changes but happy to help out! My boyfriend also lives with me. He volunteers at the local animal shelter and is a dog lover as well. He is happy to help care for your pets with me! I go out for work in the morning then do computer work for the remaining part of the day. My schedule is fairly flexible and I am always around on weekends to sit. I will always make sure your pet is taken care of! Growing up with a dog I can assure your your pets will be in good hands

“Ashley helped us out on a very short term basis. She took really good care of our dog Dobby that suffers separation anxiety. We corresponded throughout the booking and it seems that Dobby got over the anxiety and played with the other doggies and humans. Dobby seemed to be in great spirits when I picked her up. We would trust our dog with Ashley anytime.”

Another great experience with Virginia. She was very flexible with pick up and drop off times and even allowed a later pickup time due to flight schedule. Will continue to book with her, I always feel comfortable knowing my dog is well cared for and loved. Thank you!

Sophie was the best sitter for our pup while we took an Island Adventures whale watching cruise. Nestled between the state park and cruise dock made drop off after a foray at Rosario Beach a breeze. She accommodated our pups moody demeanor with ease and sent pics, even for a quick stay. Great communication, would recommend while exploring the islands and will use again when the need arises.

Jael was a great Rover find and we will definitely book her for future stays! We received regular updates and photos while we were gone. Gus got lots of attention from Jael and her family (as seen in photos). We are happy to have found a new Rover home for Gus. Thank you Jael and family!

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 Howards Corner home-away-from-home, 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 Howards Corner.

Tip: 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 Howards Corner 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 , 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 .

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.
