“Talia's amazing! I trusted her kind soul the second I met her. I'm so relieved to have found a great person to watch over our 5 month old pup when we aren't home. I'm sure Link is looking forward to many more doggy daycare days too.”
“Michelle and Brian are the best! I had a last minute request for a play date with Ari and they were quick to accept. Oakley had a great day with his new best friend!”
About: Hi! We are Erick and Laura and both grew up in households filled with dogs. We are both fully employed in the tech world, both privileged enough to work from home every day all day which enables us to spend hours on end with our dog as well, and take regular 1-2 hour walks throughout the day. We walk 5 miles minimum a day with our very active australian shepherd, and we actually run a photography and travel business on the side so we are always out doing something fun/cool/active, especially for those dogs looking to integrate into adventurous days while their humans are traveling! We've pet sat many different types of dogs over the years and are capable, motivated and excited to watch your dog! We work from home every day and have very flexible schedules, so we can accommodate pretty much any schedule that your dog needs. We are already frequently at the dog park with our dog as well! We can accommodate any need. If your dog prefers a crate, needs medicines, needs additional support, we can certainly work with you to make sure your dog is happy as possible while you are away. We are also very regular picture takers so will send many happy updates. You may even get professional photos of your dog given Erick's propensity for beautiful photos! :)
“Our guy has a great time today! We were in town for a family event and needed to have him somewhere fun and safe while he couldn’t be with us. He was tuckered out at pickup. We’ll be back if needed!”
“First time using Janet as a sitter and it went amazing! Was getting some work done on my home that wasn’t really optimal for my dog to be around for a few hours and needed to find a sitter nearby and Janet had the availability and checked all my boxes. We did a little meet and greet at her home beforehand and my dog, Charli, had no problems meeting her and being in her home. Will definitely contact her again should I need a sitter.”
About: I’ve lived with and cared for dogs of many breeds for over 10 years. I’ve raised my own dogs and helped care for rescues and friends’ pets. I understand dog behaviour, body language, and how to communicate with them. I’m calm, reliable, and genuinely care about animals. I work from home and am available throughout the day. I can take your dog for walks as needed and give them attention and care without long gaps. My schedule is consistent, so your dog won’t be left alone. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. My senior dog is calm and friendly with other dogs—she’s never had issues and can be good company. I always keep an eye on interactions and make sure the environment stays low-stress and safe.
“Gargi is a gem. My dog (17 months old) is building her confidence with larger dogs, and Gargi was so kind and patient with her. After a few visits, I received photos and videos of Honey playing and engaging with the other dogs. 10/10 recommend 🥳”
“Lorena took excellent care of my dog. He came home after both days of daycare content, happy and a little tired. I felt really at ease with Lorena, and her communication is excellent. My dog definitely loved being with her which really made me very happy!”
“I messaged Winnie last minute and she was very quick to respond and accommodating. She was very communicative and took really good care of Archie. She was very sweet with him, and Archie had a great time! I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Toto had a blast with Alex and Sarah for day care today, who were extremely communicative and easy to work with. Will definitely bring him back for daycare, or future overnight stays! Thank you for taking such great care of our Toto!”
“Theresa is absolutely amazing! My puppy gets so excited when she gets to visit and comes home happy and relaxed. She is reliable and so caring. 100% recommend - we look forward to our next visit :)”
“Hazel had a great day with Virginie and her playful Shih Tzu Tiptoe. Virginie sent updates with pics. Hazel took a walk, played and relaxed. We will surely send Hazel to Virginie again.”
“Dena did an excellent job of caring for Frankie. She gave him his meds, cuddled with him and kept him fed. I also appreciated that she regularly kept me updated with photos and videos. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Frankie again!”
“Jessica is amazing! I found her when I had some last minute meetings and she was so wonderful with updates and photos that we are hoping for this to be a regular thing. We will definitely be using her services again. My samoyed came home so happy and calm! She is excited to go visit again!”
“Qiaohui did an amazing job with Owen. She sent us a ton of pics throughout the day, and it was great to be able to see Owen playing with his pup friends:) Drop off/pick up was very easy, and I am very grateful to have found a safe and fun place for Owen to stay ☺️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Forest Park
My dog Nala is a very anxious dog, but going for regular visits at Cait and Sean's has given her so much more confidence in her interactions with other dogs. They are always very accommodating, and show so much care when introducing Nala to the other dogs that may be spending time with them. They are both so good with her!
Scott took great care of my dog, Annie! She came home happy and completely worn out, which is always a good sign. He sent pictures during her stay and even took her for a walk, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use Scott again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
Jasmine took time to do a meet and greet before we did our day of daycare. Jasmine showed calm and approachable demeanor to our dogs. Our Chihuahua had never been cared for by a sitter before and she even won him over. We love that she only takes dogs from the same home at one time for our little stress case.
We needed a brief respite for our dog, who is recovering from ACL surgery, during our daughter's high school grad party. Janet came to the rescue! She was the perfect, calming influence and has an ideal home set up, with very few stairs for our girl to navigate. Thanks so much for your help, Janet!
My first time using Rover and first time boarding my dog. Dena was welcoming and communicative. She let me up to date with photos during my dogs stay with her. She gave me thoughtful feedback to help my dog have success with future boarding. I appreciate Dena and highly recommend her to anyone.

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.

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.

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 .
