Home full-time, ur dog = our baby!

Pet care experience

Hullo! We are Michelle & James! We are healthy, active animal lovers who have owned multiple dogs our whole lives since childhood. Newly married and now living in beautiful Issaquah, we live in a large townhome with access to many beautiful trails as well as a huge dog park just downstairs! We gravitate toward dogs of all breeds, sizes and personalities and believe each one provides a precious opportunity for us to show love, tenderness and care, which honestly has greatly enriched OUR OWN quality of life so much! We promise to treat your dog as if it were our own child, to not only take care of it’s physical needs but emotional needs as well by providing abundant attention and love! Thank you for the privilege of taking care of your best friend and biggest furry fan! Also follow us on IG @michelleandjamesrover & #michelleandjamesrover!

Michelle and James were awesome hosts for Townsend! Lots of pictures, and all parties involved seemed to be enjoying themselves! Would highly recommend them as sitters.

They were so amazing! Sent daily updates with pictures and videos! My puppy clearly loved them and he is a picky dog so that’s a telling sign :) they clearly took amazing care of him and treated him like their own dog. It made me so happy and stress free for the 10 days I was away. 100/5 stars!

Both Michelle and James clearly loved having our dog Riley stay with them, they sent us dozens of photos and videos of her during the stay and were clearly amazing with her. We're so happy to have been able to have Riley stay with them and will 100% recommend them to anyone. They were flexible with the meet and greet times as well as the drop off and pickup and some scheduling issue (that we had on our end not theirs!) and were just generally very responsive. Thanks so much Michelle and James!

Michelle and James clearly love the puppers who stay with them - or dog Riley seemed completely comfortable with them and seemed to have a great time during her stay. They were both very responsive and were able to accommodate a last-minute change to our booking along with some pickup changes we had to make. We will *absolutely* be asking them to be our sitters again the next time we need someone.

Information Michelle & James Y. would like to know about your pet

My husband and I love dogs of ALL breeds as each one brings so many things to the table. To best ensure your dog’s level of comfort and care, we would love to know if your dog has any signs of nervousness or anxiety around certain things like noises or other dogs. General temperament would be appreciated to relay as well as if they shed a lot so we can prep our home accordingly.

A typical day

Your furry friend can look forward to lots of walks on a safe, lush pathway in our neighborhood as well as playing catch and enjoying normal dog shennigans at nearby dog parks and this GREAT enclosed baseball field minutes away from us. I will also make sure that anytime we are home (which is the majority of the time since we both telework) we include your dog whether it be ear and tummy scratches while I watch television or cuddling with him or her while dinner heats up on the stove. We totally believe in talking to dogs to make them feel like their presence is known and welcomed! ALSO, equally as important James and I are hugeeee on sending TONS of pictures and videos on a daily (if not hourly hehe) basis so you exactly how your doggie is doing! Communication is oh so key.
