“Michael was so helpful and even spent extra time with us to teach us some training for my puppy. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog there for the day. Thank you, Michael!”
“Hi Scott, Thank you so much to you and your family! You were all awesome and took care of Olive as if she were part of the family. She felt right at home from the very first day, and the atmosphere in your home was incredibly welcoming. We truly appreciate everything you did.”
“Sonia was great with my puppy Jack! She sent me updates and pictures of him, which made me feel very comfortable, knowing that he was enjoying his time while I was away. Thank you, we will be returning in the future ?”
“Such a sweet family! They took wonderful care of Tom and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone whose dog likes kids. He even had a personalized bandanna from them when he left!”
“Darby was excellent with our girl, Cass! This was our first time being away from our 6 month old pup and we felt so comfortable that she was in good hands! Darby took Cass on a few walks and made sure she got lunch, dinner, and good exercise. Cass seemed to have had a great time and was so tired from all the fun she had when we got home. We will definitely be booking with Darby again!🤍”
“Jennifer has been great! Our pup loves her! She is super responsive and always keeps us updated throughout the day with pictures and messages. Nice to have peace of mind knowing Olive is in good hands!”
“Very lovely experience. Emily and Dean have a wonderful family and home. They had a well behaved and sweet doggy. My dog had a great time. I will definitely book again when my dog sitter near my home is unavailable: Thank you. 😊 🩷🐾”
“Leanne was so attentive to Chloe’s old dog needs and helped me start thinking more seriously about the care she needs for her doggy dementia. I really appreciated the time she took to get to know us and help Chloe feel more comfortable at her first ever sitter experience”
About: I'm a long-time dog lover and professional photographer. Your canine companion can expect lots of nature trail walking/running and engaging play time! There are always new toys and treats waiting to surprise them, and trips to the beach and visits to the dog park are often on the menu. Keeping your dog(s) safe and happy is my number one priority! I have a flexible schedule and dog-friendly home with a large, fenced yard and over .5 acre of walking trails for your pet to enjoy. I'm a buisness owner and mother to a pup loving 12 year old daughter, our 5 year old female shepard/huskey mix, Ruth, and our 8 year old cat, Ahya. At our home, your pup is one of the family! I work from home and set my own schedule so adjusting to your pup's schedule is no problem at all! Routine feeding and exercise times will keep your fur baby comfortable and happy. Daycare hours: 6:30am - 6:30pm I have a fenced yard, walking trails, and a friendly, energetic pup for your dog to play with. Dogs can sleep on the furniture (or cuddle up in bed with the humans) or have their own private space in several quiet areas of the house. Lots of toys, treats, and cuddles are sure to keep your pup entertained!
“Our little Odie loved his time at Rochelle's! She took such good care of him and he came home calm and relaxed every day. Great communication and wonderful location. Highly recommend!”
“Beto had so much fun with Jennifer! Lot's of playtime with the other dogs, then got to curl up on the sofa for a nap. She sent a long a half dozen pics, two of which her husband took which are portrait quality. We will most definitely leave Beto with her again soon!”
About: Hi! 🌸 I’m the type of person who will learn your dog’s entire personality within a day their favorite sleeping spot, what gets the tail going, whether they’re a professional cuddler or more of an “admire me from across the room” kind of pup. 😂🐾 Animals are a huge part of my everyday life, so caring for someone else’s pet never feels like a chore to me. I genuinely enjoy the walks, the goofy moments, the couch cuddles, the random bursts of energy, and even learning all the little routines that make each dog them. And then there’s Moose. 🫎💗 He’s my sweet, goofy, extremely friendly dog and basically the unofficial welcoming committee around here. He loves meeting new furry friends, but I still take introductions slowly and make sure every dog has the space and time they need to feel comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, ages, sizes, and energy levels, so I’m happy to adjust to your pup rather than expecting them to adjust to me. If they love adventure, we can get outside and explore. If their perfect day is snacks, naps, and following me from room to room… honestly, I support that too. 😂 My goal is for your dog to feel less like they’re being “boarded” and more like they’re staying with someone who is genuinely excited to have them around. Lots of attention, affection, walks, playtime, updates, and probably a few ridiculous conversations with them while you’re away. 💗✨ My flexible schedule allows plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and company throughout the day. 🐾 I’m happy to follow your pup’s normal routine. I live in a cozy apartment with my partner, Moose, and our bunny, who has his own separate space. 💗 I take introductions slowly and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and relaxed.
“I had so much anxiety leaving my pup but as soon as I met Desiree I knew she would be in good hands. I know she was cuddled and loved on so we enjoyed our trip. Will for sure book again ❤️”

“This was my first time my one year-old Australian terrier was using daycare or being boarded. Both he and I love Allison and her lab. The dogs got along very well because her pup is so sweet. He was very tolerant of a speedy short dog zooming around him. Allie made me feel extremely comfortable with leaving him.”
“We were very happy with our dogs care with Pamela. Our dog got the attention and activity with other dogs that he needed while we were gone for a day. And he was tired and happy when we picked him up 😀 It was nice to receive pictures thruout the day too! Will definately use Pamela's services again for our pup!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lacey
Jennifer is quick with communication. She was very accommodating and you can tell she loves to entertain the pups! My little girl came home tired from playing. She has a huge backyard for them to run around in and plenty of beds for them. She also has carpets so they don't slip on the tile. Her space is dog friendly.

Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

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.
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.

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 .
