“Lulu just moved back. Home with me after living with my ex husband the last 3 years. She is very used to other dogs but the anxiety of moving and all the new things and then taking her to doggie daycare while I'm at work must have really sparked her anxiety. Janelle and Travis took extra special care of her and went above and beyond as they always do. We love Janelle and Travis and highly recommend them for your doggie daycare needs!”
“Teddy's first experience at Doggy Daycare with Annalyn, her kiddos and new best buds, Charlie and Wilson couldn't have gone better. He got a lot of TLC, snuggles, walks and attention. Teddy is looking forward to his next playdate with Da Boyz!”
“Marshelle was so wonderful to work with!!! So accommodating to our schedule for the 2 days we needed her and the random pick up/drop off times. My pups didn’t get upset going the 2nd day so that was a very good sign they were comfortable at her home.. We are so very happy we found her & met the family as we have been looking for a good sitter to use on random get aways & more... will be booking again with her in the future! Thank you Marshelle ?”
“Lanuola was amazing and Poscow enjoyed his stay very much! She shared multiple pics and played with Poscow throughout the day. Overall, an amazing stay for Poscow. Would be my first preference to take care of Poscow!!”
“Wonderful sitters. They really worked at understanding and respecting Deja's sweet and spicy personality. Deja had a great time and I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care.”
“Kathy and her family took great care of our little dog with a big personality! Major Tom is a rescue who generally has a lot of separation anxiety, but he was happy and relaxed in Kathy's home. My husband and I are SO relieved to find this family so we can enjoy our time away without being preoccupied worrying about our little buddy.”
“Krysten is the best! We feel so safe leaving our Lucy with her. Krysten is very prompt, extremely responsive, and very friendly. We've used her to walk and board Lucy over the last few months and have no complaints.”
“DeeAnna is absolutely amazing with my two pups! From the moment we met, I could tell ahead she genuinely cared and had a great energy with my dogs. She sends regular updates, photos, and always makes sure both pups are happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they are in loving, responsible hands. My dogs come home relaxed and clearly well-loved — always the best sign! I’m so grateful for the extra care and attention DeeAnna gives them. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and communicative. We’ll definitely be booking again! 🐶💗”
“Ashley and her husband were awesome. My other Rover had cancelled on me and she accepted a very last minute request. She was responsive and sent updates throughout the day. Would totally book again in the future!”
“Can’t say enough about Rebecca (and her husband) I was in a bind- last minute babysitter needed for my 8 week old husky/shepherd puppy. Never used Rover until now— Rebecca’s husband greeted me and he took Liberty like one of his dogs, very comfortable and warm. Rebecca sent me pictures of Liberty through out the 2 hours and I could see she was happy which made mama happy. Rebecca is so sweet and a VERY amazing dog mom. She let her older dog play with my puppy. Ginger is such a sweetheart!!! Rebecca went out of her way to work on some tricks with Liberty! A huge plus she knows my 1st language, ASL!! Beautiful home/yard! I would definitely use her ANYTIME!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Machias
DeeAnna was wonderful with our Teddy Boi. She was mindful of his hip dysplasia, ensuring Teddy could safely walk up and down the stairs in their backyard. She supervised play with her adorable pup, took Teddy for a walk, and even introduced a challenging new puzzle that kept him busy and engaged. Teddy came home happy and exhausted. Bonus for sharing pics while we were away. Highly recommend her services. We will definitely be using DeeAnna in the future.

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 .
