“Christopher was awesome! He agreed to watch my dog Fitz at the last minute. He was aware of Fitz’s separation anxiety and gave him lots of extra attention. He also sent me many updates throughout his stay to let me know he was doing well. Would recommend to anyone looking for a responsive, attentive dog sitter!”
“Karen was fantastic and her home is very very dog friendly. While it took a bit of time for our dog to warm up to hers, she was very patient and helpful. Ultimately our dog was having a fantastic time running around and playing with Karen's. I would absolutely go back to her.”
“Anhelina has taken wonderful care of my Pomeranian—playing with him a ton! She is reliable & responsible and super kind to pets. He took to her immediately and was very happy to see her again on his second stay…a great sign. Would definitely recommend her highly.”
“Alexis is absolutely amazing. Sonny had a wonderful time, was so well cared for and we had to change our flight last minute to extend our trip and she was incredibly accommodating. Sonny came back tired from several days of playing and a super happy guy. Definitely trust your pup with Alexis, she is wonderful!!”

“Highly, highly recommend it! Brian and his family were extremely welcoming from the moment we met them! I was scrambling to find a sitter last minute for Labor Day weekend and Brian responded to my request within five minutes! My dog Koa had such a wonderful time that I was afraid he wouldn't want to come home! The fact that my dog was so comfortable with this family, made me trust them even more! Koa will definitely be going back to Brian's house again in the future! I can't thank them enough for taking care of my dog!”
“Melinda did a fantastic job! Kobe and Scout had a great time, they came back happy and very well cared for. Melinda was responsive, sent photo updates and took them hiking. We will definitely rebook.”

“My pup was very comfortable here and there were lots of lovely parks for him to visit while staying. The resident pup is calm and sweet. Very grateful for the ability to have my pup be taken care of here and definitely will recommended their services!”
“Anzhelika was an awesome sitter. My fur baby is very anxious and scared of new people but he seemed to enjoy spending time with Anzhelika and her husband. He seemed relaxed and like he never left home. We appreciate her taking care of our baby and sending lots of updates!”
“Aileen truly loves animals, she even brought my little guy with her when she sent her kids to school so he doesn’t feel lonely🥹Tuanzi had a wonderful time at Aileen’s place, we can see him playing happily in the videos and pics she sent us. Aileen’s whole family takes really good care of dogs and play with them to make sure they are happy, I’ll definitely come back again to Aileen when I need someone to take care of Tuanzi”
“Max provided excellent care for the baby (186lbs Berner) when our regular Rover family had to cancel last minute. He would send daily pictures and notes on how our boy was doing which was very much appreciated. I cannot recommend him enough and appreciate the extra mile he went to make us feel comfortable.”

“Xiaoli was absolutely amazing! She sent lots of updates and photos throughout Ace’s stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared for him and treated him like her own. Communication was excellent, and she made sure to keep us informed the entire time. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. We’d definitely book with Xiaoli again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover sitter!”
“Ya-Han is an excellent caregiver and consummate professional. Her attention to detail is obvious with daily logs (with times and details for feedings, walks, activities, etc), ample pictures, and an occasional video. I'm a fairly laid-back dog owner and didn't ask for anything special in terms of communication, so that level of diligence is baked-in. Very impressive. Would gladly board with again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newcastle
This was our first time needing to leave our dog with someone other than a family member and Alexis made it so comforting, stress free, and easy! We know Tulip loved playing with her pups and was taken great care of! She got the best of all worlds with this set up- fun play time with very well behaved and friendly dogs, outdoor time in a big fenced yard, and human connection being the only pet she takes on at a time. We will definitely be back!
We had such a wonderful experience! Audrey was incredibly caring, responsible, and easy to communicate with. She and her family treated our dogs like their own, taking them on lots of fun outings, brushing their fur, and even trimming their nails. Our dogs absolutely adored her whole family and seemed like they didn’t even want to come home! It was so heartwarming to see how happy and loved they were throughout their stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend!
Yuna was an absolute gem to have caring for Pixel! From the start she was proactive, thoughtful, and clearly put his wellbeing first. She always checked with us before giving him any food or treats, which meant a lot given how careful we are with his diet. She sent constant updates with photos, so we never had to wonder how he was doing. Pixel got plenty of exercise and came back happy, relaxed, and well looked after. You can tell Yuna genuinely loves what she does. Reliable, communicative, and caring. I would 100% recommend her and will absolutely book her again! A special shout out to Mocha who was an Excellent doggo, he and pixel became good friends :)
This was my first time using a dog sitter, so finding someone trustworthy who truly loves dogs was really important to me. Ivy and Dan took wonderful care of my mini Aussie! They sent plenty of photos every day, and I could tell how much they love dogs. My dog also had a great time playing with Freddie. I’ll definitely book with them again!
This is the second time Piper has stayed with Andrew and Cassandra and she absolutely loved it once again. Piper was so happy she hardly wanted to come home! We got many great Piper photos and videos at the park, in the water, running in the backyard, and snoozing on the couch. We hope to see them again soon.
Ani and Pallavi are wonderful! They took amazing care of our two dogs, sending regular updates and pictures, which is always so comforting when you are away! Ani had carefully read all our instructions and followed them very seriously. He even agreed to communicate with us through WhatsApp since we were abroad. Finally, when our flight time was changed at the last minute, Ani allowed us to bring our pups the night before, which was enormous relief! We highly recommend them and will definitely reach out for our next trip. Thank you so much Ani and Pallavi!
Iksy takes such wonderful, personal care of Chester! Chester is very sensitive to his surroundings, so seeing him come home happy and full of energy means a lot to me. I love the daily photo updates, and Iksy always follows my care instructions closely. From his safe, welcoming home to outings and picnics, Chester gets to have his own little vacation!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
