“Kris and her family took great care of our Romy and Tilly. Tilly has lots of medical/health needs and she came back refreshed and well fed. Romy is a sweet boy but was having some behavioral issues and they took care of all of it and offered some suggestions for us to help!”

“So glad we found Chelsea on Rover. She was able to provide excellent care for our 10mon old pup that is fearful of new people. Most Kennels won't accept him. By the end of three days her calm and friendly demeanor rubbed off on him and they were friends. We love the photo update with happy puppy faces. We are grateful for the flexibility in time pick up and the last minute add on of our second dog.”

“This is our first time dropping our dog off to stay somewhere overnight. Dolly put all our nervousness to rest. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. It was evident from the videos and pictures she sent that our dog was having a great time! She got lots of exercise and play time, and we would gladly trust Dolly with her again. Our dog was not sure she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up!”

“Lenore was absolutely fantastic—better than I could’ve hoped for, especially since it was a last-minute booking for 3 nights! She went above and beyond with our dog: videos, photos, long walks, feeding him special food since he wasn’t feeling his best, and just taking really good care of him. What stood out to me was how much time she genuinely spent with our dog. You can tell when someone’s just going through the motions, but not Lenore. She was present, communicative, and you could feel that she really cared. Her own dog—a 2-year-old lab-shepherd mix—played so well with ours. They got along like old pals, which was a huge relief during their time together. I’d trust Lenore again in a heartbeat.”

“Shawn and family took such great care of Pertie. They were so patient and loving with her while she adjusted to a new place. Their dog Hazel and her got along great. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was so well looked after. Shawn gave us updates with pictures everyday and was quick to respond. We would absolutely leave her with Shawn again in the future.”

“This was Rudy’s first time away from home, so I was very nervous about how she would do. Leslie accommodated us last minute when our other plans fell through, and was so lovely to us and to Rudy! It was nice to know she was somewhere where she was safe, happy, and well-cared for. Thank you, Leslie!!”

“It's been quite a while since we left our little boy with anyone other than family. We were a bit nervous initially how he would do with a bew peraon. We were very pleased with the care shown by Lisa during his stay. She was very atte tive to his needs and sent us lots of updates and pictures about how he was doing which helped ease our minds. We definitely recommend using Lisa if you need a Rover for your pooch.”

About: I grew up on a farm and have spent my whole life with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, ducks, hamsters, guinea pigs and rabbits. I helped care for them every day (food, water, bedding changes, grooming) until four years ago when I moved up to Bellingham for college (WWU!). I have always helped out with my family’s animals, but I started having serious responsibilities around the farm and barns when I was about 10 or 11. I have also assisted in birthing multiple litters of kittens, and even one miniature horse! My family currently has 5 horses, 4 dogs, 4 cats, 3 fish, and a bunny, all whom I love and help care for when I am home. I also have my own cat and dog who I absolutely adore! We have neighbors who own horses as well, and they would rely on me to take care of them when they were out of town. I currently have a pretty free schedule around school, so I have plenty of time for your fur babies, and would love to spend any and all of it with them!:) My main priority is making sure your pet (or pets) are healthy, happy and safe, just as they would be with you! I will not hesitate to contact you with any questions or concerns so I can ensure your pet is getting the care you are asking for.
“Heather and her daughter were absolutely amazing with our small dog Max . I felt he was in the very best hands . I had regular pictures of Max. Max was never left alone . He always had companionship and love . Her dog was very gentle and played with Max very well ! They became best friends. He even came home with a new toy ! We will absolutely be using Heather again for all our dog sitting needs ! Highly recommend!”


“Danielle was fantastic with Frito. She was very friendly, punctual, and sent lots of great pictures and updates, which gave us real peace of mind. Frito came home happily exhausted, which is always a sign he had a great time.”

“This was my first time experience with Rover and I couldn’t be more happy with their wonderful care. It was a great experience for my dog too! Highly recommend! Thank you! We enjoyed”

“Deborah/Mark- were excellent with Texas and had great communication with me through the entire stay. Lots of walks and play time with taking Texas to the dog park several times. The home was very clean and homely.”

“Leslie provided an excellent boarding experience for our Frenchie, Kahi. My husband and I are always nervous to leave Kahi, but this time we felt more at ease knowing she was in great hands with Leslie. Leslie welcomed Kahi into her home and was knowledgable of what Kahi needed to feel safe and comfortable. She was diligent to provide daily updates and pictures. The pictures showed that Kahi was well-adjusted to Leslie’s home and having a great time playing and bonding with Leslie’s pups. We trusted Kahi was safe with Leslie which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Susan took wonderful care of our two pups. It was their first time being cared for outside our home, so we appreciated her daily pictures of their time with her. They came back home happy and healthy! Thanks, Susan!”

“I had a fantastic experience with Shalaine who accommodated my last-minute request. She was incredibly flexible and took excellent care of my dog, providing regular updates and photos. My pup was happy and well-loved during their stay. Highly recommend this sitter for anyone needing reliable pet care! 🐾❤️”
“This was our third time having Nikhil care for our dog Maddie, when we were on a short, 2-day trip. Nikhil absolutely loves animals, and Maddie gets so excited to see him. Nikhil sends updates and photos, and has excellent communication skills. He is polite, friendly and caring. We couldn't ask for a better dog sitter, and Maddie looks forward to her next stay with him.”

“I selfishly don’t want to tell the world how amazing Connie is because I secretly want to keep her sitting skills all to myself! But alas, my conscience (and my dog) won’t let me. Connie was incredible! My dog was happier than a dog in a peanut store. I don’t know how I feel about how happy he looked to be rid of me relaxing with Connie on the couch. Probably would have stayed if I let him (sorry, I thought I was the favourite, but clearly not anymore). Connie’s and her partner are an amazing and caring couple. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my Duke moving forward. If you need a dog watcher, be warned: your pup may love her more than you!”

“Rachel was so lovely and wonderful with Duke. My kids absolutely loved reading her updates and looking at the pictures she sent! Thank you so much for taking care care of our sweet boy!”
