“Julie took excellent care of my two dogs, including the one who requires insulin shots. My dogs were happy and healthy when I picked them up. I received regular updates and photos. It was a great experience. Thank you Julie!”
“Milana and Oleg have been taking care of Bella for years. I always feel at complete peace knowing Bella is safe and being loved. This is especially important to me while traveling internationally.”
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have a special place in my heart for all pups! I’ve been dog sitting for over 10 years and can’t wait for many more. I always form an instant, loving bond when meeting new furry friends. I also have experience caring for pets with special needs and can properly administer medications as needed. In addition, I have a background in caring for senior dogs. I’m trustworthy, responsible, and will always respect your home. I’ll take the utmost care of your furry loved one and treat them like my own! I can’t wait to meet your pup and make them feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! I’m an online college student so my classes are remote and I have an extremely flexible schedule. The only requirement would be access to WiFi 😊 When house sitting, my top priorities are your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I will make sure to follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed while you’re away. I believe communication builds trust, so I will provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your fur baby is doing. Your pet’s well being and your peace of mind are my top priorities!
“As always, thank you for watching Tex! Maureen took great care of my pup while I was away for nearly a week, and Tex came home well cared for and tuckered out :)”
“We had a great experience with Thaina who recently cared for our two dogs. It was hard to find someone who wouldn't have other dogs at the same time and we’d definitely book with her again!”
“Scarlett took amazing care of my dog Buckley! He is a senior dog and requires medications and she was able to administer his medications and care for him in the way he needs (short walks/potty breaks and lots of lounging and cuddle time). We will definitely be booking with Scarlett again!”
“Ivy and her husband took great care of Mika and sent frequent updates during the boarding. Freddie also took care of Mika by checking on her when they were separated. Great experience!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog Charlie since we lost her big brother, so we were a little nervous. Kevin and Kandace were amazing and very quickly set us at ease! We loved getting pictures to regularly update us on her adventures with them, and she came home happy as can be! Will definitely be booking again in the future :)”
“Biscuit had a great stay with Elise and James. They are warm, attentive and loving. We got plenty of updates during our dog’s stay with them. Upon coming home, I could tell Biscuit was really relaxed and himself straight away, which is always a great sign. We are looking forward to Biscuit’s next stay!”
“Her calm and friendly demeanor really allowed my family and I to be able to relax during our trip. Kaylie kept our dogs stimulated and hydrated during the heat in August. I will 100% return to Kaylie with my pups and recommend her to everyone I know. She's great and makes you feel like we've known each other for a long time.”
“Rose was amazing and Bozzie was so well looked after! She kept in constant communication and sent photos and he looked so happy! She’s so sweet and flexible and I’d trust her to take care of my baby anytime.”
“Isabella and Gui were the best hosts! Bobo truly had his own vacation in form of dog parks and couch snuggles. Your pup would be lucky to be cared by them!”
“Zuzu had a blast! And Ya-Han took such good care of her. She sent frequent updates on how Zuzu did and sent photos and videos. When she discovered a little scab on Zuzu she contacted me immediately and took all the right steps. I hope she and her family enjoyed Zuzu as much as Zuzu enjoyed them. I would definitely recommend Ya-Han.”
“Daria gave so many picture updates, so I always knew he was being cared for! He was super happy when I came to pick him up, and seemed to get along well with the other dogs there. Already have another stay booked with her!”
“Our first stay with Dacya was a prolonged one which made us a little nervous as we would usually like to have a few shorter stays first for him to get accustomed but Dacya and Salat where so kind and loving towards him he was obviously very comfortable and happy with them. He wasn't ready to come home! They sent tons of photos that put our minds at ease and also made it clear how relaxed he was in their home. Would highly recommend to anyone who needs someone to look after their fur baby! Newton will certainly be back to stay on his second home again!”
“Jennifer was one of the best hosts we’ve used on Rover. She was flexible and responsive when it came to organizing a meet and greet with her Junebug. She responds instantly, there’s no waiting to hear back from Jennifer. She’s got a great fenced backyard for the dogs. We will definitely rebook with her again!”
Mercer Island pet parents share their Rover experiences
Oksana took such good care of our little timid Kulfi and made sure to send photos throughout her stay. This was her very first boarding for more than 1 night and we felt reassured that she was in good hands while we were off getting married. We will absolutely use Oksana again for any trips we take. So grateful to have our new go-to caregiver!
We cannot thank cindy enough! She has been watching our dog for 16 days and she is absolute magic. Right from the start, Cindy was professional, punctual, incredibly attentive and followed our routine perfectly. She sent the best updates and photos, which completely puts our minds at ease while we are away. It is so clear that they genuinely care, and our dog absolutely adores her. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely kind, Cindy is the person!.
Our dogs were very well looked after by Kai and his family. We got daily photographs, videos and updates including any change in behavior which Kai thought we may be worried about. He was very responsive and the dogs looked really happy with him. Highly recommended!
We are truly grateful to have found Niko! She is so kind and loving toward the kitties she watches over; going above and beyond to create an enriched environment catering to basic feline instincts. She is also extremely flexible and understanding when flights are delayed and plans change. Her communication is excellent & we love receiving pictures & videos giving us updates throughout our vacation. We cannot thank her enough!
This was the third time that I have boarded my cat, Billy with Svitlana & Shkola . This is also a review of Billy’s last stay with them, in December, 2025. Both times, they did a great job with Billy. He is very shy and hides most of the time. He spends a lot of time with me, so does not like being left behind when I leave town. I translated some of the instructions into their native language, and printed a copy for them, and I think that helps. Billy seems more familiar with their place after staying there a few times. He even allowed Svitlana to pet him on his head near the end of his last visit. I hope to be able to have Billy stay with Svitlana & Shkola again.
MeiMei couldn't have been happier staying with Todd. She can be a nervous dog but she totally warmed to him. He has years of experience with dogs and gives off confident energy that is very calming. . Lots of cuddle time on the couch, and walks galore. Todd's dog, Honey, is aptly named: she is very, very sweet and tolerant.
Brian and his family were amazing hosts. Specifically, his wife was so welcoming and thorough, ensuring that they had all the information they needed for our pups and their family would have a great time together. We received regular consistent updates as well as pics showing how our two dogs were adjusting to spending time with them. We really appreciated that they have no other animals in the home, reducing any extra adjustments for our girls. We would definitely ask them again, if we needed overnight care.
Yini was great! She helped with two bookings that I needed which were canceled last minute. She was a huge help with taking care of Amaya. She sent tons of pictures and it was easy to see how happy Amaya was doing. I will definitely be reaching out for more help when Amaya needs to be taken care of.
