Pet care experience

Missing our dog, spoiling yours!

Our house has been too quiet since we said goodbye to our senior dog, so we would love to borrow your pup and spoil them while you are away! We have especially big hearts for gray muzzles, but we are also active and happy to host a running buddy. We volunteer at a local shelter weekly, giving us experience walking all types of dogs. One of us is always working from home, we have a fenced yard, and all couches and beds are fair game! We only host one pet at a time, so your dog gets VIP (very important pooch) treatment.

Schedule

One of us works from home full-time (the other is home 3 days per week) so dogs are never left alone for long stretches and get plenty of attention throughout the day. Walks, playtime and potty breaks are built into the schedule, and we are happy to accommodate senior needs or medication routines. We are also active and enjoy longer walks or runs for dogs who like more exercise. Evenings are usually spent at home - perfect for extra snuggle time!

Safety, trust & environment

After caring for our dog through his senior years, we understand how important attentive care and consistent routines are. You tell us your pet’s schedule and we will stick to it. We have a fully fenced small yard and live near a long, walkable trail.

A typical day

A typical day with us is whatever your pup prefers! Active pups can join us for a run along Lake Washington or lots of ball chasing in the yard. Older pups can have leisurely walks, potty breaks and lots of naps!

Please let us know everything that makes your dog unique - their favorite activities, treats, and sleeping spots. We live in a condo and cannot have a dog who barks a lot. (Barking at deliveries is OK, but barking if we leave for an hour is going to make our neighbors unhappy!)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
