About: I have experience caring for dogs of all energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also have experience with cats and a variety of animals. Over the years, I've cared for everything from iguanas to ferrets and truly enjoy working with animals of all kinds. I currently work part-time, typically during the mornings, which leaves the rest of my day flexible for pet care. This allows me to provide attentive care, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I have a lifelong love of animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. During our meet and greet, I'll take the time to learn about your pet's routine, needs, personality, and any special quirks or preferences. My goal is to provide consistent, attentive care that helps your pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away.
“Dawn was fantastic with Pepper! She took great care of her, and Pepper was happy and comfortable the whole time. Super easy to communicate with, and the scenic drive out to her place was a lovely bonus. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
About: I have cared for animals on my farm for almost 20 years. From cats to dogs, cows, pigs, horses, and chickens, I love to care for animals. For the first time, I am without an animal on my 20 acre retired farm and would love to invite your pet to join me here. I am recently retired and would enjoy spending time with your pup. There's plenty of open space and activities to offer your furry friend. My land is fenced for your dog to exercise and play. Of coarse, there is also time for hugs and pets. I have an exterior fence around the 20 acres and an interior fence around my home. I have the necessary experience to meet your dog's needs and help them feel comfortable, cared for, exercised, and loved. Being retired, I have plenty of time for dog walks at the farm or on the many trails that surround this area. We can also walk around the Redmond shops if that is type of socializing they enjoy. Perhaps they are senior dog that just want to hang out? I want to know what your pet is comfortable with and then provide continuity. Each day of the week, we will have time to exercise, hang out, and have fun so you can relax knowing that your dog is being given special attention. Your pet's safety is primary. It is the first thing on my mind when making a decision for your dog. My fenced property provides plenty of safe leashed or off-leash play while being supervised and engaged. For smaller dogs, the fenced space around my house may be more than enough room. Also my years of experience with a range of animal health care issues allows me the necessary confidence to know when your loved one needs additional care or vet care. Before leaving your pet with me, we will go over all of their dietary, medical, and social needs and requirements so that I can make informed choice and keep them on a routine which is comfortable for them.
About: WELCOME TO THE PACK! my Husband an I have been doing dog boarding and sitting together for about 2 years an I have been doing it individually for about 5. We have two lab mixes, a staffy, an a jackrussel mix in our home with us whom we love deeply. We are used to working with different personalities around an love incorporating new pups into our lives getting to know them an keeping them comfortable. I live on a large forested property in Redmond that's fenced in, we love to get to know new personalities an our pups will never pass on a new play mate. I work 4 days a week at a grooming salon my husband is home 24/7 with boards. We like to spend time outside but if the weather is bad it's cuddle central inside. We do about 4 or 5 potty breaks a day an one or two good play sessions outside before settling into the evening. Outside time is monitored the whole time to ensure everyone is safe and happy while playing in our beautiful yard. I am comfortable giving oral meds an insulin shots to our dearly beloved friends. We are a medical issue an disability friendly household that can take care your best friends needs with the upmost care. We also have experience with Giant breeds an petite alike so please bring your "horses" an lil "bed bugs" to play or cuddle we don't discriminate. I have a special soft spot of senor dogs an their powdered sugar faces an will do everything to support our senior citizens in their twilight years. I have plenty of enrichment toys, treats, an orthopedic beds to meet your old pals needs. I do not provide care to cats, not because I don't want to I'm sadly allergic. I also do not provide care to unspayed or neutered pets unless they are under a year old, please be understanding of this. Did you miss your flight or did it get delayed/canceled? Your road trip is taking longer then expected? No worries I'm happy to work with you as long as I'm updated! I LOVE ANIMALS putting in the time an dedication to an animals care, needs an happiness throughout their stay. I like to give updates an send photos. My favorite is seeing how excited a dog gets during pick up after a stay it's so heartwarming an just flat out adorable. I would love if you made a lil resume/cover letter for your pet on their needs, typical schedule, habits, an anything I would need to keep an eye on. I expect all dogs that come into my care to be dog friendly for the safty of all pets involved with reliable recall. I like to accommodate pets to the best of my ability I get immense joy from being able to take care of animals of all kinds. I would love if in your animals care package they have at least 1 toy, harness is preferable, something that smells like you an your home like their bed or a blanket (animals are smell based so it a comfort), their food bowl, dog food enough for the stay. An a little letter at least to tell me feeding an walking schedules.
“Melodie was wonderful with Pepper! She kept us updated throughout the day and made us feel completely at ease. Pepper had so much fun and got lots of playtime and attention. We’d absolutely trust Melodie with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. The best review Pepper can give is that she came home happy, exhausted, and slept the rest of the evening!”
“Hyeyoung K. was absolutely wonderful! She is so sweet and made our pups feel right at home! This was a new experience for Remi and Ruger. Hyeyoung K. was so pleasant and easy to talk to, which gave us peace of mind leaving them with her for the day. She also sent many adorable photos, videos and updates of our pups, which we loved and appreciated! In addition, she was very flexible and accomodating in regards to drop off and pickup, which was helpful. Her pup, Happy, is also sweet and enjoyed having a playdate. We highly recommend her and her family if you need someone to watch over your furry friends.”
“Our boy came home tired and happy from his daycare. Ana Clara was very attentive and considerate of our anxious puppy’s needs, and made sure to send pictures showing him relaxing and settling in. Highly recommend her!”
“Candra and her family took such great care of our dog! They were so loving and attentive to him. They cared for all of his needs. He had plenty of yard space to explore and got regular walks. She sent us pictures and kept us updated on how he was doing which we greatly appreciated. He came home very happy and we would absolutely book with them again!”
“Xi and Dun (her pup) hosted Skye very well! Xi shared photos and videos constantly throughout the day! And Dun gave Skye great company and was a great zoomie buddy! Skye is back home from a fun day with them!!”

“Maritza and her family were amazing with Nina. This is the first time we have left her at someone’s house and we could not be more pleased. I received tons of photos and video updates and I could tell she was having a ball and came home so happy. I can’t wait to have her stay with them again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Diana! They took great care of Tuna, kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, and made sure she was happy, safe, and well cared for. It was clear they genuinely love dogs and paid attention to her needs and routine. When I picked her up, she was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had a great time. We really appreciated the excellent communication and the peace of mind they gave us while we were away. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
About: Great with dogs. Taking care since a child. Has a dog and my daughter who loves to spend time and play with them. They’d love it here. I’m currently time off from work and can take request anytime of the week. I’ll update my exact schedule every week in advance for booking. I have a fenced backyard and plenty of place for dogs to run and play. I also have one dog to give company. And my daughter to give company.
“Zappy is fantastic!! Super communicative, which I really appreciate. Her dog is sweet and gets a long with mine very well, which helps his anxiety. My dog is always super stressed at drop off because he hates to be away from Mama, but after only 5 minutes, I get a picture of a happy and relaxed dog! I've definitely had sitters with whom he didn't relax and he always looked stressed/sad in pictures, but never with Zappy! She engages him in his favorite activity (fetch) and definitely treats him as if he were her own. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and will rebook in the future.”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Lake Marcel-Stillwater commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
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.

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.
