“Erika is great! She and her daughter are great dog sitters. My pooch had a blast playing with with their two resident dogs. Looking forward to a return visit when the need arises!”
“Cindy was wonderful with my little guy. She sent updates throughout the day which was great. She is incredibly kind and welcoming. I can’t wait for my guy to spend time with her again!!”

“It’s so clear the love Sally has for dogs, and we are so happy we booked with her. My usually anxious dog had absolutely zero issues warming up to Sally and the other dog she was watching at the time. He got to play for hours and left her house so happy. Thank you Sally!”

“Yoniray and family have been great with my dog, a little Havanese. She took pictures and sent them through rover. I can tell he was given a lot of love during the stay!”

About: I’ve always owned dogs, cats and horses! I’m now pet-less and looking to love yours occasionally! I’m use to large and small pets. We love going for walks! I work from home and own my own business so my schedule is pretty flexible to be available to care for and play with your pet! I have a large fenced in back yard. I do have a 9 year old daughter, so pet must be good with kids! I prefer pets who do not get on furniture but it’s not a deal breaker.
About: My intro to pet care started in my childhood, including an unexpected pregnancy of our family dog resulting in the birth of 13 puppies! 15 years into adulthood I adopted a dog and currently have a 2 y/o goldendoodle. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule. I get my own dog out for walks daily and a game of fetch as often as possible. Available for morning, lunchtime, and evening drop-ins, bringing your dog along with mine, or devoted individual attention. Dog daycare hours: 8A-5:30P Pick up and drop-offs for boarding between 8A-8P. Can crate in my home or drop in to yours. Walks, parks, hikes, games of fetch, cuddles, and treats. My home includes extra attention from elementary and middle school aged kids.
“Alec and Aishu, and their lovely dog Winnie, looked after my girl Nova beautifully. She can be a little skittish at first in unfamiliar situations, but she soon settled down and relaxed! She had an amazing time exploring, going for a long walk and playing with her new pal. I appreciated that photos were sent throughout the day.”

“Kelsey is a fantastic dog sitter! She kept me aware how my dog was doing all day, and provided a loving and caring environment. Kelsey is an amazing communicator, very prompt and attentive. She has a wonderful dog who was a great play companion. Five stars, no notes!”


About: We’re a mother-daughter duo who absolutely adore animals and know just how to spoil your pup! We have had our own dog who sadly passed away at the age of 14, and we currently have a very timid and shy cat who usually just stays in my daughter's room when we care for other friends and neighbor's pets. We have taken care of young pups to senior dogs where we had to hand feed the old lad along with his prescribed medicines. So do not worry, both of us have plenty of experience with dogs, we’re all about giving your furry friend tons of love, belly rubs, and fun while you’re away. Your fur child could be on my bed at night if that’s what you prefer, just as he/she is next to you. I work from home most days, and my daughter is home before 3 PM on weekdays, so we’re always around to care for pets. On weekends, we sometimes go to the park or do longer walks if the dog enjoys them. Pets in our home are always get lots of attention. Even though we live in a condo, your pet(s) will get all the care and attention they deserve. My daughter loves staying active and guarantees plenty of walks and runs to keep your dog happy and healthy. We make sure every pup gets the exercise and love they need (no boredom here)!
“Wonderful experience! My dog, Izzy, loved staying with Will and Bibiana. She enjoyed spending time with the other dogs and was taken care of very well.”

About: Welcome to my profile! My name is Emily. I am a wife, a pediatric nurse & newly a mom to a beautiful baby girl. I also have two silly cats named Greta & Beatrice. My life has always involved animals. I grew up with several cats & dogs in my home and love both of them! I am reliable, attentive, and treat every pet with the same care I would give my own. I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need medication or extra attention. I stick to your routines, watch for the little details, and keep you in the loop with updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. Hope to hear from you soon & work closely with you and your fur baby! I’m currently on maternity leave with my new baby girl! When I return to work at the hospital in September it will be very part time, so I will have plenty of time to walk, watch or check in on your pets! I am able to be flexible with you & your pets routine! I am happy to come to your home to check in on your pets or walk your dog!
About: have extensive experience caring for cats with special needs and common health conditions. I’m familiar with upper respiratory infections (such as feline herpesvirus), ear mites, digestive sensitivities, and post-surgery recovery care. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, eye drops, and ear treatments as instructed by pet parents or veterinarians. I pay close attention to symptoms such as sneezing, nasal or eye discharge, ear scratching, appetite changes, litter box habits, and overall behavior to help monitor a cat’s condition. I understand how to properly isolate cats when needed, maintain a clean and low-stress environment, and follow hygiene protocols to reduce the risk of cross-contamination—especially in multi-cat households. I’m patient with shy, anxious, or reactive cats and take a gentle, calm approach to build trust. My goal is always to keep cats comfortable, safe, and stress-free while keeping pet parents informed with regular updates. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for regular walks, drop-ins, boarding, and extended stays, and I make sure pets are never rushed or left unattended for long periods of time. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and trust in both my home and my client’s home. I carefully follow all care instructions provided by pet parents, including feeding routines, medication schedules, and special needs. I keep a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I always monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. I’m experienced in managing multi-pet households, maintaining proper hygiene, and ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and informed while they’re away.
“Ashley is wonderful! She was flexible with my schedule and my dog Ava had a great time. She sent me photos and updates throughout Ava’s stay. Ashely did a great job! I hope to bring Ava back soon!”

About: Have volunteered for Bird of Prey in SC which entailed cleaning the cages, feeding, PR for visitors. Have had corn snakes, hamsters, ferrets, rats, geiko. If you have a shy pet, my services are tailored to YOUR pet’s personality. Retired, therefore I have a flexible schedule for all types of pets. Will accept long term set schedule or shorter - whatever meets your needs. I will watch your pet in its own non-smoking, home environment. Tell me how you want things done and I’ll follow directions. Providing exceptional care is my pleasure.
“Tracie and her family took such good care of Neela! Our dog is very nervous and anxious, especially with new people, and they went out of their way to make her feel as comfortable as possible. They even quickly learned the hand signs we use to communicate since Neela is deaf. Thanks again for the wonderful stay!”

“Vainy helped us out with short notice and did an outstanding job! She sent pictures and was very easy to communicate with. My dogs seemed very happy when I picked them up. I would definitely trust her to watch my dogs again!”

Northwest dog parents share their Rover experiences
Caity was super responsive when it came to trying to book daycare for my dog! Her dog got along with mine super well, and they loved to play. She gave me updates while he was there, and for the meet and greet she hung out with my dog for an hour so we could make sure he would do okay, and I could run some errands!

This was our first use of ROVER. The first moment we met Kevin, all of our helicopter parenting anxiety went away. Kevin went above and beyond our expectations. I can’t wait to watch Luna’s reaction the next time she gets to see her new best friend again. And WE CAN’T WAIT EITHER!! FREEDOM!!🤣
