“Morgan is absolutely terrific! And her dog Attitcus is also a good playmate too! Morgan is very communicative— she provides tons of updates (both in photos and in writing) so that you know your pup is in good hands! She’s very responsive in her messages throughout the day. You’re never left wondering how your little furry is doing. She’s very flexible with dropoff and pickup times. She cares about your dog and its wellbeing in that it’s having a fun time at her place. She even dealt superbly with a surprise diarrhea situation that our puppy had. I’d highly recommend Morgan to others!”


“Archer had a great day with Derek. He enjoyed walks and play time and was a happy, tired pup when he got home. Derek is very knowledgeable about dogs and was very responsive! Archer is looking forward to hanging out with him again!”


“Marsha did a phenomenal job with all day dog-sitting! She went out of her way to accomodate our requests and was ready for our visit! Our pup can be very nervous in new place and with new people, and can get some separation anxiety as well. We previously had been doing dog sitting at our vet, but she was always a nervous wreck afterwards. After just a short time at Marsha's she was playing and running around, and even ate all her dinner! I could not believe how happy she looked! Marsha sent us frequent updates and videos, and we felt like our dog was in good hands. When we picked her up, she was playing with a squeaky toy and didn't even want to leave! It was our first time using Rover, and Marsha did such an amazing job helping us feel at ease with the process. I highly recommend Marsha for dog sitting and other services!”


“As a ohana, we're blessed to have found our "one and done" Monica is simply great with our dog! With regular updates throughout the booking, training, and even tips for us to stay consistent pet parents for our pup!”


“Patricia a wonderful help to us by taking care of our Ella when we go on trips. Her communication is open. I also really appreciate that she sends me pictures of Ella during her stay. It is great peace of mind that I know Ella is being well taken care of.”


“Due to our busy work schedule and long commute, my husband and I had to quickly look for a daycare sitter for our pup. We are so glad to stumble upon Tommy, who is reliable and truly goes above and beyond when taking care of my pup. He kept us updated throughout the day with photos of when our pup is eating, napping, and playing. He even took him out for a run. He even cleaned our pup’s food bowl and water bowl and returned them back at the end of the day. What an amazing experience!”


“Mai was very responsive and quick when it came to updating us on Winston! She was very sweet and accommodating. Winston really enjoyed his time with the other dogs! There were lots of other dogs for him to play with. He came home pooped and sleeping so well! Thanks again Mai!”


“Hector was so kind and too great care of my puppies. My chihuahua mix is always so timid around people but she took a great liking too him, cuddling with him and giving him lots of love. Animals sense food people, and hector is definitely the best. He was flexible and very communicative. He updated us regularly throughout the day. Thank you Hector, for ur flexibility, for your kindness, and for taking great care of our babies.”


“It was my dog’s first time staying with other dogs. But Aileen made sure they get along by meet and greet. She was updating me with frequent photos and gave a piece of mind! She was very cooperative on scheduling a pickup and a drop off! Glad our fur baby had a good time with her family! I will definitely come back to her next time!”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for about 5 years and my love for them has not changed whatsoever. I’m always excited to meet new friends especially when they feel the same way I always care for my cat everyday and sometimes my cousin’s dog if I go to her apartment next door. Taking care of pets is important for me because they are always there for you when you need them most I have a fence in my house to keep any pet from danger and if an animal is not friendly with others my cat has his own room.

“Rebekah is extremely caring and communicative. We met her beforehand so our dog and hers could get a feel for each other. Everything went well during the meeting and we knew our dog was in great hands. She sent several updates throughout the day regarding meals and walks, and we really appreciated how much she cared for our dog while we were at work. We will definitely plan on booking with her again soon!”


“I was in town for a conference and my girls didn’t want to stay alone in the room so I needed a last minute booking. Julian was quick to response and answered my questions promptly. Truly a life saver. He was able to pick up my girls and was attentive to my details. Even if last minute I am so happy I got to find Julian last minute.”


“Jennifer did a great job with Callaway!! She kept us updated throughout her stay and was able to give her medication for us! We felt at ease and would book Jennifer again in a heartbeat! :)”


“Nichole was able to take my dog for a day visit on short notice. Her dog was very sweet and very excited to meet me and my dog. Nichole replied to all my messages promptly and was accommodating when my pickup time changed. My dog seemed happy and tired when I picked her up, so seems like she had a fun day!”


About: Currently have a Siamese cat, a Husky, and two Belgian Malinois. I’ve had pets since I was 15, I have 18 years of experience. I’ve owned cats, dogs, birds, and mice. Preferred dogs and cats but love all animals. I’ve also been working with Wag! for the last three years. I just recently quit my job so I can focus solely on dog walks, dog care, cat care, and training. I have plenty of time to work with your babies. I want make this my full-time job so I’m free Monday through Sunday availability. I have a lot of experience with other peoples dogs, since I’ve been working with Wag! for the last three years. I currently own a cat and three dogs. It’s just the four of us. I have a gate to keep the cat away. Plus I have an extra gate and a door for my dogs if I ever need to keep yours in mine separate.

“She took great care of my Murphy. Sent tons of photos and videos throughout the day and it looked like he was having a good time. I was concerned about other dogs bullying him at the last daycare and Stephanie listened to my concerns and assured me of her diligence. I am so happy we found her!”


About: Hello! I have trained puppies and dogs for basic obedience and shows for 15 years. I started as a mentee at 9 with a certified show dog runner and trainer for 1.5 years and started training my neighbor’s dogs as practice. I have since started boarding various pets throughout college up until now. As a pet owner, I know just how important it is to find the right person to care for and be responsible for our family members - I’m definitely that person and will ensure the upmost respect for you and your pets! I like to give my clients and their pets the time to get to know me and feel like they’re making the right choice. I like to keep everything transparent and open for discussion. I live in a large two-story home with a fenced backyard and plenty of running space. I believe in lots of mental and physical stimulation to keep all animals in my care happy and healthy. I work from home at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule. I like to get 10k steps a day for my own health and make it a point to go for a 2 hour walk a day and love having a companion there with me :) My home is pet proofed from any toxic plants, food is kept out of reach, and my home is treated for pests and fleas monthly. I also have dog gates in case I ever need to section a part of the home off. I don’t like to use dog crates in my home and like to let pets have a lot of freedom and space to feel their most comfortable.

Laurelhurst dog parents share their Rover experiences
Angie is an absolute gem! From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease leaving my fur baby in her care. She’s attentive, communicative, and truly treats your pet like her own. I received regular updates and adorable photos that showed just how happy and relaxed my dog was. Angie goes above and beyond—highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter!

Truly a life saver. He was able to pick up my girls and was attentive to my details. Even if last minute I am so happy I got to find Julian last minute.

Haley is THE best sitter ever!! She takes such good care of my pup, she’s super communicative and sends updates of how the day is going which I love getting while I’m at work. My dog lovesss her and it’s so relieving knowing he’s in such good hands. We love Haley!!! :)

So glad I found Jeanne! Gnocchi loved playing with Jeanne’s doxies that Gnocchi returned home ready for bed. Overall Gnocchi seems very content and will be going over for doggy day care while I work. Jeanne is super sweet and takes good care of Gnocchi. Highly recommend!

I appreciate Joshua's quick communicating on short notice. We were able to have a nice chat when I dropped off my dogs and make sure everything was okay with his 2 dogs. My booking that day was a pretty long one and he had no problem stepping up to help out. He also took my dogs out for a run, even though I did not ask that from him because it was above and beyond. He happily met my request for extra precaution to block off/shore up the perimeter on the side of house because I was a little concerned about the gate/fence latch that had 1 fastener loose. After I picked my Huskies up late evening, they were even more calm than usual about coming home and winding down for bedtime. Whatever magic Joshua worked, it was much appreciated!
