“Emma was awesome! She answered my texts right away, she sent me pictures of my Bonita. The most important was the communication, she texted when she was going out and when she was at home. My house was super clean! I was able to relax thinking that my Bonita was in good hands! I really really recommend Emma, the best dog sitter! I will hire her again for my birthday trip in July 🥰”

“Linda is an absolute angel. Our rescue Fritz was diagnosed with heart worm disease recently and the vet appointment for his treatment happened to be when we needed to be out of state for my husband and I’s wedding. Our dog was a stray before we got him and has a difficult time warming up to people. We were searching high and low for someone who had experience with anxious dogs and caring for pets with medical needs and found reviews for Linda’s clients who also had pets who were shy or had medical needs. Linda not only kept up on all his medications but also took him to and from the vet for his appointment AND followed up with the vet after to ensure he was receiving the best care. I can’t begin to describe the blessing it was to know our furry son was taken care of and loved while we were away. She sent photos regularly and when I checked in (I tend to worry and check in a bunch) she responded immediately. When we got delayed on our trip home she did not hesitate to stay and keep him company. If you are a pet parent who loves your pet as if it were your only child, I promise you your pet will be in good hands with Linda.”

“I was super nervous having someone new stay with Zorro, because it’s been a long time. Due to a new nephew who wanted to make an early entrance to the world, I had to find someone on short notice. Linda has been amazing! We were able to do a meet and greet right away. She has been so patient and flexible, even adding an extra day so I could stay to help family. She took great care of Zorro and kept me updated. I am very grateful and would definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies!”


About: Dogs have always been a part of my life! I grew up with my family adopting and training rescue dogs from our local shelters. I have been walking dogs and dog sitting since I was in high school and am comfortable around all dog breeds and ages. My neighbors and family rely on me to care for dogs during the day for daily walks, or while away on longer trips. I have been commended by previous clients for my attention to detail and care for all animals, timeliness, responsibility, and friendliness. Due to my career, I do not work during the summertime, meaning I have plenty of time to watch and play with your pup! I will be in the area for all of summer and am flexible with time and any special considerations you have for your pet. Any considerations or requirements you prefer to make your pet as comfortable as possible in your home is my utmost priority. Whether that is long walks around the neighborhood, trips to the dog park, or minor grooming needs, I am happy to help make your pet feel as comfortable as possible so you can worry less during the workday or on a trip. Extra playtime, love, and attention are included to make your pet feel at home and comfortable in their routine.
“Paloma was an outstanding dog sitter. She was extremely dependable and responsible, treated our home with respect, and truly fell in love with our two large dogs. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear she cared for our dogs as if they were her own. When we returned, our home was left neat and tidy. We would absolutely use Paloma’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”

“Sue is amazing with my two dogs. They are comfortable with her. She plays with them and gives massages. I am very happy with the way she cares for my girls and stays in my home.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always loved caring for animals. I’m patient, dependable, and very attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, and I’m happy to stick to routines, administer basic care, go on walks, play, and provide lots of attention while you’re away. I understand how important it is to keep pet parents updated, so I’ll make sure you receive regular photos and communication for peace of mind. Whether your pet loves being active or prefers relaxing and cuddling, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for like they’re part of my own family. My schedule is very flexible and changes slightly depending on the month. In May, I have open availability. In June, I’m in class Tuesdays from 8 AM–3 PM and Wednesdays/Thursdays from 8 AM–11 AM. In July, I only have class on Mondays from 8 AM–11 AM. Outside of class, I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care, including walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and overnight care depending on the booking. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I always make sure pets stay on their normal routines and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Whether I’m caring for pets on a walk or a in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m very attentive to pets’ behavior and needs, and I make sure they’re always supervised in a safe environment. I keep spaces clean, secure, and pet-friendly, and I’m careful when introducing pets to new surroundings or routines. I also understand how important communication is, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel at ease while they’re away.
“I can’t say enough about what an amazing job Kristi did. I would highly highly recommend her services. She communicated on a regular basis. I’ve used sitters before where they were just “there”. Kristi actually spent time interacting with my three dogs. She took the time to get to know each of their personalities. She asked questions about what they liked and didn’t like and even took time to brush them. Five stars!!’”

“Theresa will go above and beyond to make sure your home and animals are safe. Our pups love and trust her. We’re so grateful to have met her. We will 100% book again.”

“Vanessa is amazing with my older yorkipoo and young cat. She is very communicative, sending photos and updates daily. I trust my home to be in better shape when I return, thanks to Vanessa’s care!”

“Dara was awesome doing our home visit for our 3 dogs! She was on time and great with communicating as well. We were very happy with her service and felt confident that our pups were in such good care with her!”


“We love having Bridget watch our pets! She goes above and beyond with their care and shows them unconditional love… especially when they can be a bit of trouble! We appreciate her dedication to keeping us updated while we are away and her support for our fur babies. 100% would recommend!”


“Mckenna did an excellent job of caring for our two dogs while we were on vacation. From start to finish, she expressed confidence in her ability to meet their needs and handle their quirks. She sent updates and pictures daily. We will d”

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of pets my entire life. I will love and take care of yours like they are my very own. I am currently free for most of the time so your pets are my priority! Week days i’m available for walks, drop-ins for potty breaks and play, and house sitting on weekends. I’ll keep a close eye on your dog when let out for potty breaks, as well as leashing is something I am very familiar with if need be.
“Kylene was very personable and it was easy to see how much she enjoys animals. Was very reliable. Arrived when expected. She kept great contact by sending periodic pics to assure me Lydia was comfortable and being cared for. I would recommend her and I will definitely use her again.”

“Abby was a complete blessing to watch our pups for the week so we could enjoy some beach time. The pups are well fed, happy and content when we got home and the house looked fabulous too! So glad we chose Abby and Rover! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ❤️💕”

About: I’ve been dog sitting, dog walking, and helping out for over 6 years! From walks around the block to walks of 4 miles, I love it all. I’ve done stays for families on vacations, drop ins, and everything in between. I have a very flexible schedule and am hoping to help people out! I currently work on a flexible schedule, willing to move around to help out. I am open most times of the day both week days and weekends. I love dog walking, and am able to send updates regularly. I have a high energy dog at home and take care of him often and have great experience.
About: *Please note. I am currently only available in the Bellevue area. While I am new to Rover, I have been caring for my own and other's babies for most of my life and would love to give you the peace of mind that your furry kiddos will be in great hands. With a flexible self-employed schedule, I am available for drop in potty breaks, feedings, and walkies as well as longer term house sitting. I am comfortable with cats and dogs and will treat them as my own with all of the care and enrichment they deserve. Being mostly self employed, my daily schedule can be easily manipulated to fit the needs of my clients. I am currently unavailable for round the clock care but have the flexibility to only be away for a few hours at a time, allowing me generous time to spoil your sweet critters. While caring for your pets, I will treat your home and babies as if they were my own. Using gentle guidance, lots of praise and rewards and leaving no trace, you can be assured that everything will be just as you left it, if not better!
