“While visiting the PNW we found ourselves in need of a sitter. Kari took great care of our Miniature Schnauzer. When we picked her up we were greeted with a wagging butt and a very tired dog…..Kari kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and text on how our dog was doing. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If we ever find ourselves this way again we will for sure use her again. Herself and her two dogs come highly recommended by us!”
“I'm new to the area and needed a dog sitter on short notice. I was pretty nervous until I met Yoon. She is FANTASTIC with my American Bully. Pretty sure he wants to live with her now. I appreciate Yoon's flexibility and care. She absolutely loves dogs and spoiled my guy rotten. I am so grateful and cannot recommend her enough! Thank you, Yoon!”
“Julie was so friendly and welcoming. She even let us come for a meet and greet so my dog could get to know her before being left with her for a couple of days. I love that she took our dog for walks each day she was there.”
“Clarisa was wonderful! I would 100% recommend her services. She took care of my elderly dog for 2 weeks while we were out of state. She send regular text updates with photos/ videos of my pup. She was also very flexible with the pick up time when our flights were delayed. I will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you so much!”
“Barlow had such a wonderful time staying with Marchi while we got married and attended all of the accompanying social pieces. Marchi took the time to connect with my anxious dog, making him feel right at home. I was glad to hear he was playing, pottying, and eating like normal. Communication was wonderful. We would definitely hire Marchi again.”
“We are very comfortable whenever we leave Max, our older German Shepherd with Sue. Max acts like he is home when we drop him off. He is comfortable there and is always relaxed and happy when we pick him up.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old and have experience with a wide range of breeds—from Golden Retrievers and Great Dane mixes to Australian Shepherds. Over the past few years, I cared for our senior Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix who had special needs and required a detailed medication routine. Supporting her through that stage of her life taught me a great deal about patience, attentiveness, and compassionate care. Now that she has passed, I’d love to continue sharing that care with other dogs while their families are away. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, giving them attention, companionship, and the comfort they deserve. I work from home full-time, which means I’m available throughout the day and can provide consistent care and supervision whenever it’s needed. Because I work from home and am self-employed, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be available throughout the day for attentive, consistent care. I’m able to plan my work around the needs of the dogs I’m caring for, which means plenty of time for walks, play, feeding, medication if needed, and lots of companionship. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, and I truly enjoy having them around while I work—it makes the day better for both of us. This flexibility allows me to provide reliable, all-day care and make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well loved while their family is away. I have a large, fully fenced backyard that provides plenty of safe space for dogs to run, play, and explore. We’re located in a quiet, semi-rural neighborhood that offers a calm and relaxed environment, away from heavy traffic and city noise. The area also has many nearby trails and walking paths, which are perfect for daily walks, fresh air, and little adventures depending on each dog’s energy level. It’s a great setting for dogs to stay active, enjoy the outdoors, and feel comfortable while they’re away from home.
“Alison was great! Our 5 month pup enjoyed his stay. He was very well cared of. She sent us updates and pictures throughout his stay. This made us feel at ease since it was our first time being away from him. Thank you Alison!”
“Heather and her family were fabulous. She took great care of my newest member of our family. Kita slept like a baby when she got home, which says fresh air and fun was had by all. She gave our girl her new nickname "the Queen of the couch", love it!! Thanks!!!”
“Very grateful to have found Alicia, she provided great care for our dog Luna. She sent many photos and gave detailed updates on how Luna was doing. We felt that Luna was well taken care of.”
About: I grew up with pets and have been a pet owner most of my life. We recently had to say goodbye to our Boston terrier due to cancer, and I’m missing having a furry friend to hang out with at home. I work from home 6 AM to 2:30 PM Monday through Thursday and have two 15 minute breaks and a half an hour break during that time. I also have flexibility throughout the day. We have a nice comfortable home and a very walkable neighborhood. I enjoy walking down to the South Bend waterfront, which is only a couple blocks from our house.
About: Hi! I live across from the beach near the hotels. Go see the sights, eat, drink and be merry, while your fur baby is in good hands. Drop off here or I can pop by the hotel for potties and walkies. Former Vet tech, Dog Whisperer fan, honorable, simple straightforward, reliable. I don’t cancel, but I am flexible to changes you may have in your life. Lots of time and love for the paws in your life! I’m up early, keep everyone neat and clean, I have lots of energy and enjoy the company on my walks. Everyone is vaccinated, kids, adults and fur babies. I have emergency training and everyone is treated like family. Safety first, kind, gentle but lovingly firm.
About: Ive grown up constantly having dogs around me. I’ve taken care of all different kinds of breeds so I’m comfortable with all sizes and most temperaments! My schedule is pretty open. I work later in the day so I’m available 10:00am-1:30pm Thurs-sun and Mon-Wednesday are all available! Having my own dog, I understand how important it is that they are comfortable and taken care of! I have a chihuahua with a very impatient bladder and I’m very blessed to live so close to work so I walk home every two hours to let him outside. We go for walks on the beach, hang out in our fenced back yard, or snuggle on the couch:)

Ilwaco dog parents share their Rover experiences
Bisou and I were very pleased with her care of Bisou during our stay in Long Beach. As much as I longed to have Bisou with me for the entire stay (accommodations did not accept pets) I was comforted and confident of the love and attention payed to my pup during her stay. I also appreciated Kari’s flexibility when I wanted to have Bisou during while we explored the beaches, dug clams, and rode bikes. I highly recommend Kari to watch over your dog while in Long Beach!
