“I really appreciate Sara‘s willingness to help me out with my baby. My dog is not used to be around so many other dogs. for me. It was not a fit because of that reason. Sara was great ,no complaints about her. But my little senior is always Best one on one or with only one or two other small dogs.”
“Katrina is a gem - quick responses, and was very easy going and willing to roll with it when I (embarrassingly) forgot my dog's bag of lunch, toys, etc. the first time I brought him over. I don't think he even missed his things, given how well her place is set up for dogs. The big, fenced back yard is a dream!”
About: We have raised many dogs and treat them as family. We have worked with puppies and senior dogs and everything in between. We are familiar with providing meds as needed as well. I work full time in Construction Management but I am currently working from home a few days a week and open weekends for ample time to spend with your pups. We also host a Sniffspot private dog park for rent out on our property that we can take walks on in between bookings and live right down from Little Mountain Park for hiking or walking along the trails. We also live conveniently located 3 miles from I-5 for quick drop off and pickup off the freeway. I am available on all days of the week for boarding depending on the dog and owner with a meet and greet as I will be at the office Monday - Wednesday from 0730-400 and the dog would be with my at my office which sits on multiple acres with walks every 2 hours. Contact me anytime if you have any questions. Dogs are treated as family in our home and have a comfy bed for day napping and plenty of room to move around. We play in the backyard, walk leashed on our property in the upper forested area and have access to the trails at Little Mountain Park for walks weather permitting.
“Elaine was quick to respond to a last minute request for daycare need. She was sweet and helpful. Her home was suitable for pets with plenty of room for dogs to play. The yard was large and equipped with water that is available to dogs all day.”
“Brooke was very communicative and my boy came home sooooo tired! She has a large yard where he zoomed with her dog and she walked him multiple times during the day! Thanks Brooke and Lambeau!”
“Thank you so much for watching our baby Boo! He was wore out and was sad the next day he didn't have his buddies around. Next time we come to Washington we will book again with Jennifer. She did an amazing job and he loved staying there!”
“Morgan was absolutely wonderful with Vader! You could tell he loved her. She walked him frequently and gave him lots of love and us lots of pics. Would absolutely highly recommend!!!”
“Olga did such a great job watching Appa! We were extra nervous bc we had had a poor experience with a different sitter leaving Appa outside all day in the heat and him nearly dying. I didn't think I could trust anyone again after that, but we eventually found ourselves really needing a sitter and I didn't know what to do. After seeing Olga's profile, reviews, and seeing her home and meeting her I felt a lot better. Her house was nice and clean, I could see she was taking Appa's needs seriously. We decided to have her watch Appa. She did a great job reassuring me by sending me pics and videos of Appa throughout his stay and letting me know how he was doing. I could tell he was so happy in the videos. He has a lot of energy and Olga played with him a lot. He came home tired out from a full day of playing. I would highly recommend Olga to anyone and would use her services again!”
“Ariana is super accommodating and very friendly! She took my puppy on a really long walk today too and he had so much fun! He passed out as soon as he got in the car! So happy I found Ariana and her family!”
About: Pet CPR and First Aid certified. I'm also a certified college graduate for vet assistant as of November 2025! I've taken care of pets in my home ever since I was about 9 years old. We had cats and dogs while I was growing up and it was part of my daily routine to care for those animals. I looked after my parent's dogs whenever they went on vacation or when they needed an evening out. I have also watched a coworkers dog who needed daily meds while she was on vacation. As of today, I own a Golden Retriever who I trained from the moment I got him at 4 months old. He was a handful at first since his previous owner didn't have the time for him. But with much patience and positive reinforcement, he's a Golden boy! He is one of the friendliest dogs you will ever meet and impresses everyone with how well behaved he is! I am pretty good at reading dogs and knowing what they must be thinking or feeling. I observe them and see if there is any change to their behavior that I should ever be concerned about as well. Dogs and cats are family, as such they should be treated that way! I am pretty open for availability for when you need me. Send me a message with the times and days and I will try to fit it into my schedule! I make sure every animal in the household is properly cared for at all times. Animals deserve only the best care and attention after all! If they want to play, we go outside in a safe location and play! They want some love and cuddles? I'm all for it! They need a nice walk that isn't strenuous? Lets fit that into the schedule!
“She took great care of my dog Damian! He came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Communication was smooth, and I really appreciated the updates. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone needing a reliable sitter.”
“Amber took amazing care of Lili! This was my first Rover experience so naturally I was nervous. I was also worried because Amber had big dogs that I wasn't sure my dog would get along with. Well, I didn't need to worry at all! Amber's dogs are calm and very well trained and got along great with Lili. I LOVED getting pictures and updates. It is very clear that Amber is an experienced dog owner, and treated Lili like her own :) Lili got so much attention and love, will book again!”
“We appreciate Kelsey so much!!! ! Sorcha and Rabinson were the happiest pups at pick up each day. It was so easy to schedule and we’re so grateful for her acceptance with our short-ish notice for care. The pups had a beautiful yard to play in and loved getting attention and love from Kelsey and family. 100% recommend!!!”
About: Hi there, I am a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have worked as a veterinary technician for 3 years, so I’m confident handling dogs with medical needs and have plenty of experience administering medications safely! I’m home full-time, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, love, and one-on-one care throughout the day. Whether your dog loves long walks, snuggles on the couch, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and right at home. I’m comfortable with all schedule types—early mornings, late nights, weekends—and am happy to tailor care to your dog’s specific needs and routine. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐾 I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is extreamly flexible! I am home most of the day usually aside from the occasional grocery run/ errand and can switch things around for your pets needs! In my home, I have a large back yard (non fenced), dogs are allowed on furniture if that makes them more comfortable, since I am home all day, food and water can be readily available at anytime as well. If I am watching them in your home, it’s whatever your needs may be is what I can do! I am happy to take them on walks, play fetch outside or just chill inside with them!
“Angela and her family have been wonderful and communicative during Charlie’s first week of daycare. As it generally takes Charlie some time to settle into a new routine, this has been the smoothest transition I have had. 100% recommend Angela for daycare or pet sitting needs.”
“Roxanne B is fabulous with all the dogs in her care. Our Sara is shy with dogs she doesn't know. Roxanne allowed her the time to say hello to each of the dogs & Sara had a wonderful day. She came home happy & tired.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Vernon
My dog (Sweetheart) was recently adopted, and seems to be a bit skittish when meeting new dogs. I was concerned how she would behave when I left her at Sars's house for a day. Sara handled the situation just fine, and Sweetheart seemed well settled in when I picked her up in the evening. Hopefully I won't have to board Sweetheart very often, but if I do then I wouldn't hesitate to contact Sara G.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Mount Vernon on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Mount Vernon commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s 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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 456 sitters in Mount Vernon, 93% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
