“This was our first time booking a sitter/boarder for Lola and we had a great experience with Robin. I was fortunate to be able to book with her on fairly short notice for a weekday. We went from a daycare visit to an overnight stay seamlessly. She accepted my unspayed dog, which was also very fortunate. Lola had a fenced in yard, gracious family with kid(s), a clean home, and animals to keep her company during her stay. Overall, I found her responsive, easygoing and very accommodating. I'd feel safe bringing Lola to her again in the future. :)”
“Charis is just what my puppy and I needed! She was so accommodating to my puppy who recently had stitches and required an e-collar. It’s relieving having reliable care. My puppy loved the experience & new friends and had thankfully burned her energy for the day. Will definitely book again!”
“Baloo had a great time with Valerie! She was prompt in responses and offered a meet and greet before we dropped him off on a holiday! She took great care of him and was very flexible with us.”
“Emily has the setup when it comes to caring for dogs. Our pup, Bowie, was picked up both days happy as can be. Emily updated us throughout the day with pictures and engaged with Bowie with some of his favorite games, tug and Frisbee. He even made other dog friends! What more can you ask for. I'm handsdown booking with Emily/ Pacific Paws again ☺️”
“Thanks to Kayla & family we had a great first time experience on Rover! Super responsive, accommodating, and let me bring Frankie for a visit to meet them the day before. Her kids loved on our dog and she sent pictures of Frankie snuggling😊”
“Christina is our favorite, George gets so excited when we pull up to her house he forgets all about me. He loves playing with her dogs and any other dogs she might have at doggy daycare and I also love that she's great at communicating and sending updates.”
About: Am able to teach your dog’s basic training I can help in potty training. As well as sit, stay, and walking commands if desired. Great understanding that animals such as your dogs or cats are your children just with four legs and more hair. I hope and look forward to seeing you and your animals enjoy long walks outdoors, maybe going swimming in a lake river going to dog parks finding out new animal healthy recipes for snacks learn potty training for the first time or completing how to sit on command with hand or verbal jesters maybe even a foreign language is so desired and experiencing new things. Rain or shine, cold or hot. I will show up and say hello and enjoy the wonderful time I’ll have with your child.
“Fabulous as usual. Sofia was out of sorts due to the past extremely hot days. Hongyee just helped our fur baby get through the day. Grateful for her ability to roll with it. Absolutely perfect. We felt confident that Sofia would be just fine.”
“Brought my pup for the first time and our experience greatly excited my expectations. Specifically, communication was great before, during and after my pooches start. Kristina is clearly passionate about the care and love for each dog in her care. Am looking forward to using her in the future. Cheers.”
“Thanks to Cara we had a wonderful first-time experience on Rover. Yoshi did his first Rover doggy day care and he had a blast. Cara took great care of him and her little girls took to Yoshi. He came home and promptly passed out. Expecting a lot more play dates in the near future. It's awesome to find another Corgi Mom. Thank you, Cara, for welcoming Yoshi into your home. We loved the photos you sent to us throughout the day and hope to add more memories.”
“So amazing to have Maegan watch my dogs! It was short notice, it was a long 14 day, and 11mo puppy is A LOT to deal with but Meagan and her family were up to the task. The dogs were happy and tired when I got them in the evening. My dogs even got to meet "weird dogs" (their goats) ?.”
About: I have taken care of animals of all ages, sizes and breeds! I am a huge dog lover with a huge heart for every animal! I have experience in leash training, potty training and kennel training, as well as basic commands (I.E sit, stay, speak, lay down, roll over etc). I have always had a passion for animals and will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! I am currently available 24/7! I am a full time sitter and I am always home, so your pets will never be alone or in a kennel. I have an open schedule on the weekdays, weekends and I am even available on holidays! I do not currently work which gives me all of the time in the world to play, love on, and cuddle your fur babies! I am flexible on dates, long term and short term, as well as last minute care needed! I have a spacious 3 bedroom townhome with plenty of grassy areas, one dog park in the vicinity, and a short commute to larger parks and dog parks! My significant other has just as much love to give as I do, so your animal will always get enough love & attention! We have two children in the house so please consider that before booking with me! I stay home with my two children so I will be home pretty much all day/night to take care of your fur babies! If I ever have to step out it’s not for long and I always come right back. I follow instructions to a T! If you have any specific instructions please provide them via message or written down. I try to make the experience here for the animal the exact same as it would be at home, so staying on their schedule is key! I am willing to accommodate any requests you may have (crating them, brushing them, bathing them etc). Please keep in mind that bathing/grooming is an extra fee but if asked about I will have no issue doing so!
“We love Lisa!! She was so nice to last minute offer to watch Sopa for the day while movers were at our house. She was so thoughtful to pick and drop her off at the house, which was above and beyond!! :) As soon as she got to the door to pick Sopa up, Sopa was so smiley and happy, and she was anxious to leave us to hang with her buddy Lisa! Another wonderful experience with Lisa :)”
“My puppy had a great time with Naiomi!!! Naiomi sent lots of pictures and updates. I could tell my pup was having a great time, and I felt comfortable leaving her with Naiomi. We will totally use her in the future.”
“Liz was WONDERFUL. Communication was on point, she was gentle with my scared girl and made her feel safe; she played with my silly boy and forgave his over eagerness to befriend her kiddos, lol. I really did feel so safe knowing they were in her care. I would definitely recommend.”
“Emily did an excellent job with Zeus and Apollo, she sent me photos and kept me informed. I would definitely use her service again. Thank you Emily for taking care of my babies!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Navy Yard City
I did not think we were ever going to be able to take mom on an outing since she adopted Dono the Velcro Dog with anxiety issues. But then we found Valarie, she has been coming to take Donno twice a week for walks and to learn a few manners. Mothers day was the first day we took Dono to Valarie’s for day care. After a brief sniff around the front yard Valerie stepped outside to say hello and he went nuts he was so excited to see her. She kept us in the loop during this first stay and set pictures showing him playing and bright eyed. The entire family was able to visit in a special place were dogs are not permitted knowing he was safe and happy (most of the time).
Emily was amazing! She took care of our two dogs diligently and was very communicative, kind and professional! From the first interaction, we felt comfortable leaving our babies with her and the joy they had when we picked them up let us know how much fun they had and they had been properly cuddled! Highly recommend Emily!

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 Navy Yard City 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 3,734 sitters in Navy Yard City, 87% 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.
