“Emily was so great with my girls. I got regular updates and pics, and felt confident that my doggos were in good hands. My elderly pug has some health issues, and has some doggy-dementia issues. But Emily took great care of her. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter.”
“This was Chloe's first time away for a long trip and we couldn't be happier that we booked her stay with Gary and Carol! We appreciated the ease of drop-off and pick-up and the quick response time while we were away. Gary was so kind and flexible with my booking mistake on the pick-up day, which we greatly appreciated!! Chloe was nervous at drop-off but seemed to settle in quickly and have a great time. I appreciated the photos of Chloe while we were gone. Thank you and we will be happy to book again in the future!”
“Melissa gave us updates on Echo and sent photos/videos throughout his stay which put us at ease with any worries we had. He came home happy and healthy. We will definitely rebook with Melissa when we go out of town!”
“I observed a loving caring exchange with my Sophie who seemed very comfortable with Yuting. She provided wonderful periodic photos which were much appreciated and great feedback on my pets care.”
“Linda and Bobby were FANTASTIC! They kept me in the loop with what my pup was doing and feeling. This really felt like a home away from home for him. A part of me thinks he wished he could stay! We will absolutely be using them again in the future.”
“Jared took wonderful care of our 12-year-old dog, Ace, during a four-night stay. From the beginning, he was friendly, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease leaving our senior pup in his care. Ace came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that Jared genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. We really appreciated the peace of mind knowing Ace was in such good hands. We will definitely book with Jared again and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.”
“I’m glad we chose Shane to watch our dog on 4th of July. He is a nervous boy around fireworks and gets scared. He seemed comfortable right on drop off and excited to play with another dog. He was tired when he got back home from all the play- and that’s a good thing. Would definitely book again.”
“Kristopher was very helpful and accommodating in setting up boarding for my dog just a few days before I needed to leave town. He put my mind at ease with leaving my pup with someone I didn’t know. I got updates and photos of my boy each day and I’m pretty sure Kristopher could make a living doing pet photography! Should I need pet sitting again, I will certainly seek out Kristopher again.”
“Emily has worked hard over multiple stays to build trust with our shy and nervous dog. I feel confident that Pepper loves Emily and her dog Bowie and have zero reservations or guilt about leaving my dog in their care. In fact, I know she will have a great time and come home feeling secure and happily tired.”
“Another AMAZING stay for my dog Sonoma with Debbie. I think he secretly likes it better at her house than he does at home! He is always so excited to go over there and I love all the updates and pictures I get!”
“The BEST sitter ever! Becky did an amazing job watching our two pups. We got so many updates and cute photos! We were worry free the whole time knowing our dogs were in good hands! Becky is such a sweet warm person, and goes above and beyond with her dog care (her pets Kito and Tatter were amazing playmates for our babbies). We will for sure be a returning client in the future :)”
“Stan was awesome! Took great care of our dog and very flexible. Our dog can be a bit anxious and growly with new people and he handled this very well - will be rebooking!”
“Larissa was the perfect person to take care of my dog. She sent me updates and photos throughout the entire time. I felt assured that my dog Mac was in good hands and at no point was worried. I’d happily leave my pup with Larissa again!”
“Dave is amazing! His calm and loving demeanor really helped our anxious Dorkie settle down right away. After our trip, Harley came back home a happy pup. It gave us such peace of mind to know that our little guy was being well loved and taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be using Dave to watch Harley in the future❤️”
“noemi was so great with my dog while i was away! she really understood how to take care of a senior dog, was flexible about letting him go out, sent many pictures of him while i was away; and he seemed very calm and content when i went to go pick him up after my trip. i highly recommend her!”
“I was very pleased with Fin who kept me updated about Blackjack. He had a couple of issues that concerned Fin regarding his digestive system. I reassured her that sometimes he does have challenges. He was fine the first seven days so likely stressed with the number of days he was at Fin’s home. Fin sent a number of photos that showed Blackjack was totally enjoying himself! I highly recommend Fin as a Dogsitter. Her backyard is a great place for dogs to hang out as is her home. I was impressed by the fact that she walked the dogs twice a day and also only takes one dog at a time.! Fin works from home so Blackjack got constant attention!”

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 Ireland 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 Ireland.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Ireland 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.
