Pet care experience

Happy Home (1 dog at a time)

* Sorry, I do not watch dogs under 2 years old. I've been watching dogs on Rover since January 2012. I own a 3 level townhome with lots of space (no yard). Your pup will have the run of the house. Loved ones are always allowed on the couch or in bed, unless you specific otherwise. I'm a city girl (born and raised in Seattle), but I've have had many pets growing up. Dogs, cats, fish, pot bellied pigs, rabbits, and snakes. I've been watching dogs for my family and friends for about 20 years now.

Melody and her husband took such great care of Cooper! I received a ton of photos and updates every day and Cooper clearly enjoyed his stay with them. Will most certainly rebook again soon!!

Melody was very communicative and sent lots of pictures during Bowie’s stay! She made his stay feel very special with small details like a cute welcome sign and a report card at pick up. Not an expectation but it was very much appreciated. Thank you, Melody!

Melody was a fantastic pet sitter! We had lots of updates during our vacation, and Melody was wonderful at communicating. We did a meet and greet before and felt comfortable instantly. I will definitely be booking her again if she’s available. 🙂

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have a backyard, this is why I walk dogs at least 4 times per day for 20 minutes at a time. Your pup will always be leashed during outings, and fitted with an Apple tracker (AirTag).

A typical day

During a typical day, we'll take a morning and afternoon walk around the neighborhood or local park. In the evening we may swing by Petco or Mud Bay, just for a change of scenery. We'll take another walk after dinner, then one right before bedtime. Depending on the weather, I may also take your pup to the Millcreek or Edmonds Dog Park. Although we may go to the "dog park" I will not take your pup off leash. Safety is my number one concern.

I'm looking for dogs that are well behaved, can respond to commands, house trained, and are current on their shots. Sorry, but I do not watch dogs under 2 years old.
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.
