“Whiskey Goose has a great time when he stays with Ashley and her family. They are a wonderful family who loves dogs and takes good care of them. It’s nice to have found someone I could trust with my dog while I’m away. I also appreciate the daily updates, photos and their flexibility.”
“Kathy and her family love and care for Major Tom like he's their own. We're so glad to have found a sitter that our anxious little monster is comfortable with and we can relax knowing he's happy and well cared for.”
“Marshal took such thoughtful and thorough good care of my senior doggo on short notice. I am grateful for the good news shared during her stay, and her good mood when I picked her up. I highly recommend Marshel!”
“My dogs mean everything to me and it can be difficult to find a dog sitter who understands the assignment. Allison understood the assignment. My girls are 10 years apart in age are different in temperament and personality. To me, it doesn’t take a lot to care for them but I never know if that is different in the eyes of the sitter. Allison welcomed them both into her home and cared for them just as I would. She provided updates and photos throughout the stay. She was also flexible in drop off time as I had a brain fart when initially booking the stay. I will definitely choose Allison again for future stays!”
“Vaishali has helped Sunka learn to walk with her harness and NOT pull! She loves being with their family. Vaishali has been very flexible with our planning and timing. Today we had unplanned traffic problems that made our trip later than we head home.”
“We just picked up our dogs and they’re SO tired! No weird dog smell and they seem so happy. We got pictures daily and loved to see our babes having fun. Very pleased with Rachael and fam and we’ll for sure use them again. 10/10 referring to everyone!”
“Alexa took very good care of our dear pet Trigg! For more than a month long! We were sent pictures and videos frequently and Alexa was always super responsive whenever reached out to. I strongly recommend her for sitting/boarding!”
“This was the first time we had our dog stay with Teri for a trial run, for a much longer stay in the near future. I think all went well, Teri sent several pictures during the trial run. It looked like our pup was doing well, for her first stay in a new environment. It was nice that our pup was the only dog, which is what she is used to at home. I would highly recommend Teri to look after your furry family member.”
“Janelle and Travis were very communicative and friendly. We reached out sort notice for help (2 weeks prior to the trip) so we really appreciated them helping out and welcoming our dog in their home. We heard he got lots of snuggles with their kids 💕”
“This is my first time using Rover.com. I am really grateful to find Krystle!! She was amazing in taking care of our GSDmix for the weekend!! So many fun pictures were sent, giving us peace of mind while away. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Tram and her family took such great care of our little elderly yorkie. When we picked her up, it was like we never left and the family was so kind and gentle with her. We’re so thankful for Tram and her loving family. We’ll definitely be asking to have them watch her in the future!! Thanks, Tram!”
“I was so nervous at first to leave our dogs with someone we didn’t know but, we LOVED Lynne!! She took such good care of our dogs. Treated them like her own. We got pics and updates everyday! Lynne is the best!!!!”
“Michelle was very communicative and kept us well assured that our fur-son was in good hands. We will absolutely be hiring her again for all of our out-of-town dog sitting needs. She walked our dog daily, treated him like a part of her family, and was so flexible with our pick up time changes. Thank you Michelle!”
“He spoiled our boy! He took him walking daily. We got pictures of him walking and playing with other dogs. He brushed him. We felt our boy was loved and pampered. We would 100% recommend David.”
“Phenomenal Rover! Our dogs are always so excited when we pull into her driveway and we really appreciate how genuine she is in her care for our dogs and how understanding she is when there have been hiccups in our scheduled plans.”
“Sheri is a great sitter! She watched our energetic young Lab while we were on our honeymoon. She sent us photos of our dog every day, which we loved. She kept our pup busy, walking her often and playing fetch in the backyard. We arranged a meet-and-greet with her beforehand, so our dog could meet her dog, and that helped put our minds at ease. Sheri asked many questions during the meet-and-greet, and we could tell that she cared a lot. We recommend Sheri highly, and we would definitely use her as a sitter again.”
“Jill and Aaron are absolutely stellar:) They provided amazing care for our dog Rufio, no easy feat when he has several medical conditions and numerous medications to keep track of, but they were completely detail oriented and on top of each finer point. They sent all the sweetest updates and photos which was best reassurance during our family's trip We were so worried to leave our dog after he had all these medical concerns crop up in the spring, Jill and Aaron really just removed the stress and gave us the peace of mind that not only was he receiving expert care but more snuggles and extra perks then he would have imagined. It was basically a spa vacation for him! When we picked Rufio up, we could tell how happy and content he was from the stay ❤️”
“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our dog. You provided so many pictures to let us know that she was happy and having a wonderful time as a part of your family for the weekend thank you and I am giving you a five star rating because you are worth every star.”
“April knew exactly what my pup needed. As a “still in training” young dog, she reinforced the skills we were already learning and kept him engaged. She has a great indoor space and safe backyard for dogs. We received frequent updates and it was clear he very much enjoyed his stay.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Stevens
We were first time Rover users and needed a fairly last minute booking, so we’re really glad we found Tram! She was responsive, reliable, and made the whole experience very easy. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Doodle was in good hands and well cared for while we were away. He seemed to have a great time too(hopefully he behaved himself!) 😊 We’d definitely be happy to book with Tram again.
Currin was a great sitter! Louie really enjoyed being at their home. Their dogs were so sweet and friendly to my dog as well! They always sent me photos and let me know how Louie was doing the whole time we were gone. They were also very understanding and were so easy to work with and communicate with. Would absolutely book again and recommend to everyone !
Robin and her family are fabulous. My girl, Sylvi Bell, is an itty bitty tini tiny little 90lb baby, and.... she can be needy at times. Robin was communicative, sent great photos, and ultimately, provided exactly the safe steadfast care my best friend and I needed during my travel. She had fun, and I had a reparative experience in learning great doggo sitters do exist!
Travis was amazing! We had to leave very last minute for a family emergency. He got back to me right away and made our pup feel at home! When we came to pick her up she looked so excited and relaxed. It was so nice to know she was well taken care of while we were gone. Thanks again!
I had a wonderful experience with Candice taking care of our senior pup! She is very communicative, sent lots of picture updates, and is such a pleasant sitter to work with. Candice is very experienced and knowledgeable and we could tell our dog was well loved while we were away. I would highly recommend her pet boarding services, you will not be disappointed! Thank you 🙏 🙏

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
90% of sitters in Lake Stevens can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lake Stevens home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Lake Stevens.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Lake Stevens sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
