About: Hi there! I'm a part-time teacher, full time animal lover! I've cared for dogs big and small, from puppies to seniors. I use fear-free training and socialization strategies to make pets feel safe, confident, and loved (including with my own puppy, Phoebe). :-) I'm a substitute teacher, meaning that I'm available evenings, weekends, school breaks, and holidays. Reach out and we'll make it work! Please note: currently, I'm only able to house-sit for up to two nights at a time. Thanks for understanding! I work hard to build solid, positive relationships with your pets to keep them safe, secure, and happy! As a puppy-parent myself, I know consistency is key, so I'm always happy to help your pets practice their tricks, obedience, and being on their best behavior. I'm comfortable crating, leashing, and handling pets in their homes and neighborhoods, as well as providing play, socialization, and mental enrichment.
“Helena is a great communicator and took excellent care of our 3 animals (1 large, excitable dog; 2 cats) while we were away for several days visiting family. I really appreciated how quickly she reached out if she had any questions and how promptly she responded during our check-ins. Helena has lovely energy and we could absolutely tell the pets appreciated having such a warm and capable caregiver while we were away. It definitely helped set our minds at ease knowing our animals (especially our big, dopey, kinda high-maintenance dog) were all in such excellent hands. Thank you, Helena!!”
“Melissa was a fantastic sitter! She was so communicative and made sure we knew Sunny was good! Even over the holidays, she was on time and put love and care into taking care of our pup! I will definitely book her again!”
About: I've been a pet owner my entire life from turtles to rats to cats and dogs, I have experience with caring for a variety of animals. Most recently I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility where I gained a lot of experience with handling large dogs, learning animal body language, and feeding and administering medications. I am up for any challenge and am a quick learner! I am a full-time student so my schedule is flexible to both weekends and weekdays, and I am open to pet/house sitting and dog walking :) I am very cautious when it comes to locking gates and doors, and I tend to stick to consistent home routines that the client's set to minimize anxiety for pets!
About: I started dog sitting when I was 14 years old for friends and family. I have always had at least two dogs in my life. Nothing makes me happier than a happy pet. I am an experienced pet sitter with plenty of experience walking dogs as well. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend. I Currently Have A Part Time Job At Elevate Sporting Goods. I Will Keep My Schedule Updated As Much As Possible. I Will Always Have Time To Fit Your Fur Baby In I want every pet to be as happy as possible. I will take care of/love your dogs as they are my own. Making sure they are able to exert their energy while also getting the proper love is always my top priority. Will be sure to update you as much as possible with some pictures as well.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life—dogs, cats, chickens, even a parrot—so caring for them is basically part of my DNA. I’m currently in school to become a dog trainer because working with animals isn’t just something I do, it’s genuinely what I love. I volunteer with a local shelter where I walk dogs, help ease kennel stress, and run playgroups for pups of all personalities. This year I even spent time volunteering at a dog shelter in Greece, which gave me hands-on experience with all kinds of temperaments and behavior quirks. I’m well-versed in positive reinforcement training and behavior modification, and I’m also certified in animal CPR and first aid—so your pet is in safe, capable hands. Whether your dog is shy, silly, high-energy, or needs a little extra patience, I’m here for it. Also I go by my middle name, Chasse. Pronounced chase. But Donald is fine too I'm currently finishing school to be a dog trainer and I only work on call. I also have conferences and school stuff that occasionally take me out of state, which will be reflected on my calendar. I do playgroups at the shelter 3pm on every Thursday. Outside of that, I'm avaible. I can't board pets in my own home unfortunately. When it comes to boarding in your home, I suppose we can work out the details
“Lauren and Dalton were awesome!!!! My dogs looked like they were having a blast!!!! I received updates that included amazing pictures!!!! I will definitely be using Lauren and Dalton in the future!!!!”
“Ashley did great with our two high energy dogs (labradoodle & black lab)! Really appreciated her detailed report on the drop-in and how they did during her visit. Will hire again for drop-in visits and dog care when needed!”
“Madisyn was very detailed oriented and responded properly to any communications from me. She did a perfect job of taking care of my two cats, including managing my asthmatic cat’s medication. I won’thesitate to use her again.”
“Erika did a wonderful job of caring for Wallace. She came by before the visit to meet Wallace and understand what was needed. She arrived on time, took him on a nice walk and fed him dinner. I wouldn't hesitate to book Erika again for another visit. :)”
“Kacie was phenomenal at taking care of our pups and they LOVED her! She came through last minute ahead of the holiday weekend. She not only walked the pups, she played with them out back, even picked up the poop in the yard that we hadn’t gotten to 🫣 she gave them so much love we had no worries they were well taken care of. Kacie was the best!!”
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m an avid hiker and have been lucky to share many trails with amazing “trail dogs” over the years. I’ve also pet sat for coworkers, doing drop-ins multiple times a day, and I’m currently providing overnight care for a puppy—something I truly enjoy. Over time, I realized this is something I’d love to do more of. When I say “us,” I mean my little household too: I have a mixed-breed dog and a cat. My cat is gentle and friendly and gets along well with dogs. My dog, Ziggy, is my first male and a rescue from the pound. He’s been a challenge at times, but with patience, consistency, and lots of love, he’s made wonderful progress—and continues to do so. Because of that experience, I have a special place in my heart for shelter dogs and pets who may need a little extra patience, care, and understanding. I’d love the opportunity to offer that same compassion and support to your pets, helping them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I happily offer drop-ins and overnight care on weekends and holidays. If there would be a special need, we most likely could work this out. I care for pets based on their normal routine and your preferences. Whether in your home or during overnights, I focus on feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship, along with any special instructions you provide. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining the routine they’re used to.
“Tamara is excellent! She took time to do a meet and greet with Cosmo and I prior to our first drop-in, she was on time for his hour long visit and provided a great update on how things went. Cute pics too! Thank you Tamara!”
“Qing is very organized, easy to communicate with and impressed me with her exceptional skills handled my senior cat’s medication schedule very well! Qing follows all of my instructions precisely, monitored for changes, and kept me updated with long detailed notes and lots of photos. My cat can be anxious around new people but Qing never disappoints as she handled introductions slowly and respectfully. Her behavior expertise made all the difference and I felt completely at ease! I would always highly recommend her!”
“Ellen was a wonderful cat sitter and truly cared about the needs of my three cats! She was very prompt and responsive and went above and beyond what was expected. I would definitely recommend Ellen and would definitely hire her again!”
“Lizzy was great with our dogs and kept us updated the whole trip with photos and messages letting us know how they were doing! I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her in the future”
“Hannah has been amazing with my puppy! We have had to ask a lot of her including frequent visits because we are trying to keep our pup on a good potty training schedule! My dog seems to love Hannah and is always in perfect shape when we get home from work! We have already used Hannah a couple of times and will continue to rebook!”
“Dylan was a life saver! We had to scramble for last minute plans and Dylan did a drop in for us while we were out of town. I got lots of pictures and can tell my two cats were loved on.”
“Lisa definitely lived up to the other glowing reviews. She visited our house daily to feed, water and take care of the litter box for our two cats. She is reliable and even made friends with our often-shy Siamese kitty. We appreciated the daily pictures and reports cards while we were away on our week-long trip. We would highly recommend Lisa for your away pet-sitting needs! Hopefully she will still be providing here excellent services the next time we take a trip to visit family.”
“Alejandra has been providing 1x a week check ins over lunch for my aussie Cosmo over the last few months, and she does a fantastic job! She's very communicative and flexible when I've had last minute cancelations, always shows up on time, and sends me the most adorable photos of Cosmo every week. I would definitely recommend Alejandra to anyone looking for someone reliable to drop in on their pups and give them some love while they're at work 😊”

Madisyn was competent and comfortable coming for drop-in with my two older pups. They both need meds and have specific instructions for taking them. Madisyn handled it all very well! I felt comfortable leaving them knowing she’d be by soon. I look forward to her sitting for them more!
Gabriele is an exceptional dog sitter; knowlegable, capable and notibly caring about dogs, even anxious fearful dogs like mine. I felt cofident and constantly reassured that Gabriele could competently address any issue that could arise with my dog. I would happily recommend and rebook her. She is stupendous!!
Natalie was absolutely wonderful! She stepped in on very short notice to care for my dogs and made the entire experience stress-free. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, was incredibly kind and professional, and kept me updated with regular check-ins and lots of photos. Knowing my dogs were so well cared for gave me incredible peace of mind while I was away. She was so great, I've booked Natalie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. One of our dogs ended up with an upset stomach and had an accident in the house, and she didn’t hesitate to clean everything up. She truly went above and beyond. Although her visit was only scheduled for 30 minutes, she stayed for nearly two hours to make sure both of our pups were comfortable and cared for. She brushed them, took them outside multiple times, and kept us updated with plenty of photos throughout her visit. Her kindness, thoroughness, and genuine care gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We are incredibly grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!
This is my second time booking with Matthew for a 5 day trip, and I’m equally as thrilled with his service as the first time. My dog absolutely loves him, and I really appreciate his daily photos and quick recap. He even alerted me to a potential hazard and resolved it right away. I know my dog will be safe, entertained, and loved on when he drops in!
Fantastic drop-in sitter! Reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We appreciated the time she took to meet with us and our pet, so that she could get to know a little about him. Our pet was happy and relaxed when we returned. Highly recommend and will definitely book again! 🐾
Pamela was amazing! First off, I requested her on very short notice, one day in advance, and she was more than happy to help even having never met my pups! She also went above and beyond as to feed my dogs, fill up the water bowls, and pick up their poop when she could! I would absolutely recommend her to anybody and everybody and I will definitely be booking her again in the future!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lacey choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
