“I met with Kim the day before boarding my dog with her to give my fearful dog a chance to sniff around her property, to see her dog and sniff her when she wasn't looking :-). My dog, a WSS who is fearful of people, settled in fairly quickly because Kim did exactly as I asked her to do - she ignored my dog, didn't make eye contact with her and let my dog come to her when she was ready. Apparently this approach worked because my fearful dog was at ease and comfortable with Kim when I picked her up after only spending 1 night with her. Kim has her own dog which helped my dog feel more comfortable. Kim sent updates and few photos which put me at ease while my dog was in her care. If you board your dog at Kim's, make sure your dog is up to date on their tick treatments as the outdoor area where the dogs roam and go potty outdoors is a wild woodland type area (not mowed) with tall grass, brush and shrubs where ticks are known to thrive.”
About: I have taken care of puppies up to senior dogs. I love all breeds of dogs from tiny yorkies to great Danes. I enjoy walking dog as well as playing catch with them. It's true dogs are truly man's best friend. My schedule is very open right now as I work in the school district and am off work for summer break I would love to spend this time with your furry friends. I have spend a lot of time pet sitting in my friends homes and my parents home as well so they could go camping and take vacations. I would also love to care for your pet in my apartment if needed.
“This is the first time using someone to watch our dog... it was an absolute wonderful experience we ever had. Very polite and communicated with fast responses. Our dog is very shy amd timid but they understood that and worked with him for the time they had him. We felt like they became part of our family.”
“Throughout the times i have had my dog stay with Jacob, i can tell she enjoyed her time with him. Jacob is incredibly amazing and attentive with my dog. He truly goes above and beyond with the care he provides my pet with love and attention as well as playing with her. He certainly has us as repeat clients and continues to be our first choice.”
“Linda was awesome and kept me updated throughout the day including lots of cute pictures of my dog. Very accommodating of my dog’s needs and would trust her with my pets.”
“Jeremy was wonderful. He took great care of Maisie. He went above and beyond to make her comfortable in his home with his family and other pets. Excellent communication and lots of pictures.”
About: I’ve been around dogs, my whole life, starting with dog sitting for neighbors as a kid to now raising and training my own energetic lab/German Shepherd mix. I know how important is to trust someone with your pup and I bring that same love, attention, and structure to every dog I care for whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or quality time while your away, your dog will be in caring, capable hands. I work a full-time 8 to 5 job in Mount Vernon but I’m available for evening walks or job and visits during the week. I also have lots of flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays, so weekend care and visits are no problem. When I care for pets in your home, I do everything I can to keep the routine consistent and stress-free. I respect your space, follow your instructions closely, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“I cannot recommend Kristin enough. I was honestly very scared to try another sitter because of a previous bad experience, but from the moment we did the meet and greet, Sunny liked them right away, and that gave me so much peace of mind. They took exceptional care of my Sunny and treated her with love and attention. I received daily updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while we were away. My Sunny were relaxed, happy, and clearly adored the time with them. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly caring, Kristin is perfect choice!!!.”
“Susan kept my dog while I went on vacation, and it was the first time I had ever left her. I was so nervous and so worried. But from the first day on, I knew that Zoey was in good hands! I got pictures every day and a message every day and sometimes more than once a day. I believe that she was happier there than she is at home. Susan is loving and caring and it is a wonderful environment for any dog! I have already booked her for another vacation and will make sure that I book her ahead of time for any vacation in the future! She is amazing and you can trust her!”
“Very pleased with Jennifer, once again! We have two dogs - one can be incredibly challenging with separation anxiety, reactivity, etc. Jennifer handles her flawlessly and the dogs come back to us happy as ever. 5 star, 10/10, A++”
“Juliette did a great job with my bully boy. He can be a handful. She was available on short notice for my family emergency. Will definitely be using her services again.”
“Deangelo watched my dog for a night last minute and was extremely responsive and kind! Sent lots of pictures and took very good care of him. Would definitely recommend!”

“Dongjing is by far my Top Sitter on Rover!! We have used multiple people and have not been highly satisfied but she went above expectations to care for our dog!! She was very observant to all of his needs and took notes of his feelings/behaviors while he was there! He played with other dogs and came home super tired - which is exactly what we wanted! We will definitely use her again!”
“Stella did an excellent job taking care of my dog. She communicated well and was flexible with the timing for drop off and pick up. She sent good pictures and my dog seemed comfortable. When I picked him up he was healthy and happy! I would definitely recommend her.”
“When I planned a week-long vacation, I knew I’d have to find a pet sitter for my puppy. For most pet parents, leaving your pet with a stranger can be daunting and anxiety inducing. Thankfully, I left my 6 month old puppy with Adena and her lovely family. Adena might have been a stranger when I dropped Cashew off, but after a day or two it felt like I’d left my sweet puppy with family. She was extremely communicative and answered any and all questions I had. Every day I got updates, photos, and videos of my puppy having the best week ever. Adena’s golden retriever, Glacier, was the sweetest, most patient playmate to my rambunctious puppy. Cashew even bonded with Adena’s daughter, following her around the house like a little shadow. Adena and her family will treat your pets with the same love, care, and compassion that they show their own pets. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Cashew was safe, loved, and having a great vacation of her own! Adena will be the first person I reach out to the next time I need a dog sitter.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oak Harbor
We were in a bind and Sarah really came through for us - she was absolutely great with our pup and we cannot thank her enough. She spent time speaking with me when we picked up our pup - Sarah was very kind and professional. This was our first experience and we hope(!) she will agree to welcome our little devil girl back. THANK YOU, SARAH!
I had such a wonderful experience having my dog Indy cared for by Kendra! She watched Indy for 7 days at her home and provided excellent care. I really appreciated the daily updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing Indy was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She was attentive, caring, and clearly treated Indy like one of her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! 💯 💯💯
Kevin and Mandy were awesome with my little dog, Leo! We did a meet and greet where I could tell my dog felt comfortable in their space and around their cats… then during my trip, they texted me photos of naps and adventures…I was secretly worried Leo wouldn’t want to come home 😂 I could tell Leo had a blast and was in good hands. So grateful and will definitely book a Leo “vacay” again as the need arises 🙏
Haley is so great with our dog. I was nervous to leave him with someone else as he’s older and has some issues, but Haley is caring, patient and understanding. She also always sends us updates, too, which I love. Thank you for taking care of Pyro like you’re own ❤️
We had such a wonderful experience with Brianna! She boarded our two dogs for several days and went above and beyond in every way. She sent frequent update photos, which gave us so much peace of mind, and was incredibly attentive to all of their needs. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Brianna was accommodating, reliable, and genuinely caring. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional dog care!
Fantastic sitters/boarders with my 2 large Great Pyrenees at their home. They came back healthy, joyous, and happy and really enjoyed themselves at the doggy resort that is their home. Louis and his wife also came to my home to attend my 2 cats who were also healthy and happy upon our return. They are my first choice as long as they are available!

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 .

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.
