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.
“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. :)”
“She's very nice, dependable and flexible. Our dogs and cats love her. We will be asking her for more dates to check on our dogs again. We were very happy with her service! Thanks Deirdra! 😊”
“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!”
About: I am a loving and responsible dog owner with hands-on experience caring for my own dog. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs patience, attention, and kindness. I enjoy taking dogs for walks, providing playtime, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I am experienced with daily routines such as feeding, potty breaks, grooming, and giving dogs plenty of love and companionship. I treat every pet like a member of my own family. I am patient, reliable, and committed to providing a safe and happy experience for your furry friend. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with pets throughout the week. I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks or drop-in visits. I like to plan my day around providing reliable and loving care for pets. I am happy to follow each pet’s routine, including walks, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime. I am also a dog owner, so I understand the importance of keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always take time to understand each pet’s personality, habits, and needs before providing care. For walks and drop-in visits, I provide a safe and calm environment, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and make sure pets have fresh water, attention, exercise, and companionship. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I will treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same care I provide for my own dog.
“Keiha, aside from being a consistently good communicator and great with my dogs, is genuinely the nicest Rover I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know. We look forward to booking her in the future!”
“Jerrie wad the best. Always attentive to Mike's needs as well as keeping me updated with pics and messages of how things were going. I have recommended her to my friends and family.”
“She was an absolute gem while watching my cats during my recent trip. From the very beginning, her communication was outstanding she sent the sweetest little prompts and cute photo updates that made me feel so connected and reassured while I was away. Seeing my kitty happily playing, lounging in her favorite spots, and clearly well cared for in those pictures was such a relief and honestly made my vacation even better. She did a fantastic job my cat was happy, healthy, and well fed when I returned. Even though I completely forgot to tell her where the extra kitty litter was stored (total brain fart on my part!), she handled everything with such grace and resourcefulness. That level of sweetness and professionalism really stood out to me. If you’re looking for a caring, attentive, and genuinely awesome cat sitter, look no further. Adaline is the real deal I’ll definitely be booking her again for future trips! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
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
“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.”
“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 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.
About: Had dogs my entire life. Lost my last one a few months ago. Have fenced in yard for them to run. And plenty of toys. I’m retired so I have nothing but time to watch your pet. I walk every day would love to have your dog along for the walk. I have a fenced in yard , and a.good sized back yard with squirrels that need to be chased. Your pet will be welcome in our home.

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!!
Madisyn was beyond AMAZING again!!! She went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. She not only took GREAT care of my dogs, but she bathed my old man, cleaned up any accidents he had, washed a load of laundry for me, spent extra time with my dogs, and always communicated if something was abnormal. This was the longest I had been away from dogs and I was only able to do it because Madisyn agreed to take care of them. I knew she would give me peace of mind and they would be more than okay. Thank you Madisyn for being you and a wonderful dog sitter.
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!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lacey stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 .

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
To find sitters in Lacey with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
