“I will definitely have Rachel take care of my dogs again. She has a great place for my Golden and Shepard to run and play. Rachel is kind, flexible and a good fit for my pups.”
“Lisa and her family were awesome! So grateful to have someone to look after my fur baby and I know he was loved and well cared for. Great communication and really loved receiving the photos and videos while we were away. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Laura and Dalton were fantastic with my goldendoodle, Leia! They provided updates and made me feel at ease. It was clear from the start that they care about the pets they look after. Leia had a great time under their care. She came home happy, well-cared-for, and delightfully tired from all the fun! I’m confident she’d jump at the chance to go back. I can’t recommend Laura and Dalton highly enough for anyone looking for responsible dog sitters!”
“Annmarie did a fantastic job taking care of our 3 month old fur baby!. Her communication while watching our fur baby was great and we appreciated receiving pictures of her playing and getting all the cuddles. We will absolutly book Annmarie for any future dog sitter needs and highly recomend her!!.”
“I booked the stay with Ashleigh the night before. She was very professional and kind. my dog was sleeping the whole way back home and slept more when we were home. He definitely played a lot and enjoyed his stay with Ashleigh, I would definitely recommend her to anyone and will be booking further stays with her when needed. :) Thank you!”
“Jordyn was great with our pets. She gave our dog medicine daily and lots of loves. He got sore paws and she even soaked them! Our two cats were very shy and she worked with them every day to try and make them more comfortable. She gave multiple updates through the day and was very easy to work with. We will definitely be using her again.”
“I can't say thank you enough! Emily and Dean took good care of my senior dog while I got to have a much needed vacation and were even flexible to extend when trip complications arose. Communication was great and Bentley clearly enjoyed his time with their dogs. This was my first experience with Rover and having someone I didn't know take care of him. I was incredibly nervous but he was in good hands. I would definitely book with them again in the future!”
“Another successful stay where our doggies came back super happy and obviously well taken care of. Amanda is always responsive & gives you plenty of updates on your fur babies. Our girls can't wait to stay again!”
“Jennifer was wonderful with our 120 lb dog. She kept us updated the entire time we were gone with pictures and messages. She took him on walks and even gave him a Thanksgiving treat. He loved her dogs and had so much fun the entire time. He got treated like he was part of the family the entire time he was there.”
“Haylee was very attentive to our dogs needs. This was the first time our boys have been taken care of outside of the family. She is very knowledgeable about dog behavior and we appreciate that. Will definitely use her service again. Thanks Haylee!”
“She's been in the business for a while, and this type of thing seems very natural for her. We were very comfortable leaving our dog Vinny with her for the weekend, and it went great. Thanks Val! :)”
“Timothy was an amazing dog sitter! He took such great care of my dog, Queen, and his communication was excellent throughout. It’s always hard being away from my baby, but I felt completely at ease knowing she was in Timothy’s care. I could tell she was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pet!”
“Jerrie was awesome! We booked her for an extended weekend at the very very last minute (might have even been same day). She took all 3 of my little chaos causers and sent soooooo many photos. This was our first time leaving our newest addition and Jerrie really eased my mind with regular updates and quick communication. I accidentally misbooked and needed to add an extra day, Jerrie was very accommodating. I’m pretty sure our pups had a blast. Will absolutely book again. She has a huge fully fenced yard and there was a good handful of playmates for our babies this weekend. We’re so happy with this service.”
“Lesly is a great dog-sitter! She is communicates well and is very accommodating! She took great care of our dog for a long weekend. We would definitely use her services again in the future!”
“Jasmine was awesome! She took great care of our dog and we will be using her moving forward, she sends lots of pictures and even took our dog on a few runs! She has a nice backyard so he can play too.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their North Yelm home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your North Yelm.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your North Yelm sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
