“Xiu took such good care of our pups while we were out of town recently. They are not used to others coming over and taking care of them but they quickly gained trust in Xiu. She also kept us so informed messaging and sending pictures. It was great seeing how happy they were with her. It all started with a great meet and greet. She was so detailed to make sure she understood who they were and their needs. I hope we can have her come watch them again.”


“Vanessa was very attentive and patient with our nervous Obi, which was so appreciated! She was punctual, handled all complex feeding directions well and provided pictures of an anxious but happy boy. That's the best we can ask for and will book again!”


“Deidre was fantastic. We were very anxious leaving our older chihuahua and standard poodle alone all day since they’ve become accustomed to being no more than 5 feet away from us since working from home the last 6 years. As soon as we met Deidre for the meet and greet we were put at ease. She’s has a calm, grounded presence that not only the dogs but even our scaredy cats responded too. She came by for three visits and sent full updates and many photos. We cannot recommend her highly enough.”


“Jeffrey was fantastic and allowed us to be worry free while traveling overseas. He even helped take care of our cat who unfortunately has cancer and was able to administer oral meds. I went ahead and already booked him again for our next trip. Highly recommend!”


“Savannah is awesome at communicating. I work a busy schedule and had to communicate with her about an emergency regarding my pups and she was super responsive and came up with solutions to help us the most helpful ways. Great sitter. Definitely recommend.”


“Becky has been so wonderful with my new puppy. Her communication is fantastic as well as the photos she sends of her! Poppy always loves her visits. It has made this transition of bringing a new puppy home so much less stressful!”


“Wonderful experience!! I will definitely use Ashley again and recommend her to anyone. She kept me updated and responded to messages very quickly. My cats were well taken care of. They are pretty social with me and not used to me being gone. So far they are not showing any separation issues and even the shy anxious one is doing great! Ashley stopped in to hang out twice a day and that extra people interaction each day from my past one a day visits has had a big impact. Sad as it is to say it’s almost like they didn’t miss me as much this time :) Thank you!!!”


“Melanie did a great job taking care of my very unfriendly cat Daisy! She sent lots of pictures & updates, which I enjoyed getting. Melanie brought my mail in & took my garbage out to the curb for pick up too. She went above & beyond! I am so happy to have found her to take care of Daisy when I am gone!”



“100 stars! We moved to Olympia recently and then had to take a ten day trip out of town, and Jerri was amazing! We had daily pictures of our old man cat and she rotated lights, got the mail, and even dragged our trash cans back in. She also stayed in close contact with us the last day of our trip, as we were worried about our flights being cancelled or late, and she was ready to come back if we needed her. 10/10 highly recommend!”


About: I have taken care of pups of all ages (from puppies to seniors) as well as sizes! I love going on walks short or long, playing, as well as cuddles! I have taken care of pups who require a high level of consistency in their routines and do my best to attune to those needs as reliably as possible, working with and directly communicating with pet parents (as desired). I do dog walking, drop-in visits, as well as overnight stays. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule for day time drop-in visits for play time, feeding, as well as walks of varying lengths and time (rain or shine)! I am incredibly respectful of anyone's home that I enter and leave the space as clean as when I entered. I am really intentional about making sure my time with your animal baby is thoughtful, reliable, caring, and safe. Consistency in routine and safety are two values to animal care that I hold.

About: * summer is here and I still have a few openings left so book asap! Also... I know it seems too early and sunny to think about the holidays, but I usually book up months in advance so reach out, even if you don't have exact travel plans, but know you'll need pet care. I currently have Labor Day already booked, but mid November - New Years is pretty much open, except one booking in Dec. Check my updated calendar. My dog care experience spans all ages and breeds. I know puppies are more work, but I enjoy working with them on leash and obedience training to maintain good habits while their people are away. I have experience with giving daily medications and have cared for senior dogs, one who needed daily blood sugar testing and insulin shots. I live mobile between pet sitting gigs staying with friends and family from Marysville to Olympia. I started pet sitting for clients when I was house cleaning during the time I was in grad school. Because I was already working in their homes and had biweekly interactions with their pets, it was an easy transition to pet care. It was also during this time that a couple of professors inquired about pet sitting. I was a backup for one of thier regular sitters and the other, I'm still their regular sitter 7+ years later. I care for your pets the same way you would. They like to sleep in the bed with me? Cool. They need extra outside play time or walks to keep their anxiety low because you're gone? Done. I am very intuitive to reading their energy and do everything I can to meet their needs. Do you have some anxiety about being away and want pictures daily? Got it covered. My experience with house cleaning also menas I take care of the spaces I am staying so I am happy to water house plants and take care of gardens if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of my friend’s pets for a bit now. I love taking them on walks, give them food, play with them and give them lots of love and attention. I had some experience with puppies and older dogs. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I'm currently working part-time as a caregiver for my father, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule. I’m confident I can easily accommodate your pet’s needs and routines, whether that’s daily walks, feedings, or any special care required. While I’m currently unable to host pets in my own home, I take great care in ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m happy to meet with you beforehand so you can get to know me and feel confident about entrusting me with your pet—especially for overnight stays or extended care. I treat every pet like family, following their routine closely and always prioritizing their well-being.

“Chloe stopped by every other day for nearly 3 weeks to care for my 5 ducks and 2 cats. She was communicative and reliable. Everyone was healthy and happy when I got home. I hope to book her again!”


About: New to Rover but, with over a decade of experience as a trusted dog sitter, I have had the privilege of caring for countless furry companions, including those belonging to neighbors, friends, and coworkers. From goofy poodles (like my own) to energetic vizsla's, I've had the pleasure of nurturing a diverse range of breeds and personalities. My commitment to building strong relationships with both pets and their owners has led to countless referrals and repeat clients, solidifying my reputation as a go-to sitter in the area. I prioritize safety, exercise, and lots of cuddles!! I have a work schedule that gives me flexibility Thursdays and Fridays so I’m able to provide services for up to 4 days at a time :) I don’t have a pet friendly rental home so I prefer to care for pets at the clients home. This is what I’ve normally done for friends and family over the years. Plus pets seem more comfy in their own homes!

paige h.
“We are super thankful to have Paige pet sit for us. I have an older but energetic pomeranian/poodle mix and two small parrots (cockatiels). Paige is super patient, caring, and thoughtful with all three animals. The thought of leaving them makes me nervous, but I am always relieved when Paige is available to watch them. All animals get plenty of exercise, our pup gets lots of outside time, and Paige is super communicative the entire time.”


Alison S.
“Alison has been my dog sitter for so long I don't know what I would do without her. She cares so much for each pup - and my pups are QUIRKY. She's patient, kind, sweet, and dedicated to being the best substitute dog mom when I can't be there. When my elderly dog needed extra special attention, she took it in stride. I highly recommend Alison to anyone who needs a pet sitter / dog walker / etc. She's the best!”

Absolutely adore Savannah. She was available even with such short notice for our fur baby. Very professional, and reliable. Definitely will be using her again, as our fur baby warmed up to her the quickest of all sitters. Thank you Savannah for being sweet with our girl, and available at such a short notice!

Wendy was very professional and caring for my dog Bentlee. She took pictures and kept me updated with her visits which put my mind at ease while gone. Wendy went the extra mile with her care and attention for my dog. She was amazing and I could tell my dog was happy!

Ana was wonderful! Very responsive, friendly, totally reliable and a natural with our dogs. She watched our two Labradors for a couple days, she was great about sending notes and pictures of how things were going, our dogs loved her! We would definitely recommend her services!
