“Danielle made herself available last minute to come and housesit our two dogs. We had to leave town unexpectedly and Danielle responded the same day our request was submitted and committed to starting to work just a couple of days later. We have had her stay with the pups before and we were thrilled to be able to leave knowing that they would be exceptionally cared for with all their needs well beyond met. We could not say enough wonderful things about Danielle and her knowledgeable and loving way with our dogs has made it such a wonderful and relaxing experience.”
“Jenny was so great with my senior pup—she gave her all the love and treats! Jenny sent regular updates with pictures, and it was clear my dog was happy and healthy. Will definitely use Jenny again!”
“5 stars!!! Cannot thank Brandy enough! She is so kind and responsive! She sent me updates daily & took amazing care of our stubborn anxious Samoyed! Our house was spotless when we got home too! We will definitely be rebooking with Brandy!”
“Michaela was excellent with our puppy. Super communicative, with tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Bogey loved his walks while she was with him. We can’t wait to ask her to sit for us again.”
“For an entire year I had a 23-day trip booked and because I had moved away from my best dog sitter in Renton, WA, and needed to find a new dog sitter who lived in Vancouver, WA, I was getting worried. My dog Sammi was almost 15 years old and quite a needy (but sweet) dog. I found Pat and was very happy with the time, care and love she gave my elderly girl. Sammi did extremely well while in Pat's care and Pat sent me pictures of Sammi at Starbucks and shopping. Sammi needed a caring and loving adult sitter and we definitely found one in Pat! I would recommend Pat for anybody needing that perfect sitter! ”
“Annabelle was fantastic! Super good with Marshall and sent photos and updates on the regular while I traveled to Vegas for a weekend! Very kind and responsive. Highly recommend!”
“This is our second time having Shelley watch our Geeat Dane Loki. She stayed at our house and took such good care of him. She made sure he was happy and had everything he needed and kept him company. She also watered our gardens for us while we were gone which was very much appreciated! We highly recommend Shelley and will definitely have her watch him again. Thanks Shelley!!”
“Anthea is a cat whisper. My kitten took to her immediately and my anxiety ridden kitty stayed mellow and calm during the whole stay. She is dedicated to her charges and communicates in detail and quickly. Will leave my two fur babies with her anytime.”
About: With years of experience caring for animals, I’ve worked with elderly pets, high-energy breeds, and reactive dogs. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care schedules to keep your pet safe and comfortable. I take pride in being calm, attentive, and communicative so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’d love to see if I’m the right fit for your furry friend! I work from home full-time and have the flexibility to provide consistent care, walks, and updates throughout the day. I intentionally open my schedule on the days I’m fully available, ensuring your pet receives my complete attention and care. Safety and consistency are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s established routine, including feeding schedules, walk structure, medication needs, and home guidelines. I keep doors, gates, and leashes secure at all times and never introduce pets to unfamiliar animals without permission. In your home, I treat your space with respect and maintain a clean, calm environment. I provide regular updates and photos so you always feel informed and at ease while you’re away.
“Olivine was amazing! Our 3 pups absolutely loved her and so did we. She’s great with communication and we got updates and pictures daily. Leaving for any trip can be so scary but with Olivine watching the girls I didn’t have anything to worry about! Thanks Olivine!”
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life, from dogs, cats and turtles all the way to horses, goats and chickens! I have had quite a few dogs throughout my life of different breeds and sizes. I regularly watch my family and friend’s pets, from a young spaniel puppy to a big senior Labrador who thinks he’s a puppy. I treat my senior friends with care and affection, wanting them to know nothing but happiness! I have also had a few puppies and understand the patience and care they require, especially when it comes to teaching them manners. I am currently unemployed so pet care will be my full time job! I am completely available everyday at all times to take care of and spend time with your furballs! I have two cats who run my home, they are leash trained and I regularly take them out to explore the backyard and play outside! They are very spoiled and I shower them with treats and toys when I can. When I watch others pets I want to know exactly how they want me to care for their pet, not wanting the animal to have to stray too far off their regular routine, especially when it comes to puppies.
“Roree was amazing with Aspen while we were out of town. Always sent updates and pictures, and made sure Aspen had the best care! Would definitely recommend Roree for anyone needing a dog sitter and will for sure have her back in the future!”
“Madalyn was fantastic to work with! She was super easy to communicate with, extremely friendly, and my animals loved her! She kept in communication with me the whole time I was gone so I felt 100% confident they were well taken care of!”
“Tarsis to the rescue!! We needed a nine-day pet/house sitter on short notice, and were so fortunate to find Tarsis. She was kind, playful, and observant with our 2 dogs and respectful of our home. Her communication, photos, and videos were spot on and much appreciated. She made us feel comfortable with her competence and devotion. We would love to have her back!”
“Pamela is fantastic. She was thorough during the meet and greet and asked questions I had not thought of. She took the time to read and digest guidelines for watching over Willow. I did not feel good about leaving for a week but as Pamela provided updates and described Willow’s interactions, I knew that Willow was doing well. She stuck to a routine which I know that Willow LOVES. Willow is on time for everything - routine calms her anxiety. Pamela went above and beyond on multiple occasions and I loved receiving updates regularly. She treated Willow like she was her own… There’s nothing more that I could ask for!”
“Brooklyn did a fantastic job watching our two morkies over a weekend period. We especially appreciated her proactive style of communication, her calm when dealing with any issues, and of course all the pictures of our pups throughout the day while we were away. Would definitely recommend her services and book with her again. Thanks Brooklyn!”
“We trust Madelyn with both our pups and our home implicitly. She is so thoughtful and kind- and my girls love her. She has been our go to for a while now, and hoping to keep it that way. We love her!”
“Skyler was absolutely amazing with my GSD who wasn't so sure about letting someone new into the house even after meeting her. He was still skeptical about it. However she worked amazing with him and they became friends. I will definitely use her again in the future”
“Alex is the best! We needed help with our three cats with very little scheduling notice, and Alex stepped up to help. He took notes while I went over their routine, and I could tell he took caring for them very seriously. He even agreed to bringing in our mail and watering some plants. One of our cats is diabetic and needs insulin injections twice daily, and she was also on an oral antibiotic. Alex updated us regularly about how the cats were doing, whether or not the diabetic cat was eating, and how feedings and medication administrations went. It really eased our anxieties with leaving our three cats with individual needs in the hands of someone so capable and trustworthy. Alex's professionalism and dedication to providing quality care for our cats and the house while we were gone allowed us to focus on what we needed to at that time. We will undoubtedly request his services for future cat care needs while we are away.”
“My boyfriend and I left our doggies in Amy’s care for 2 weeks while visiting family. We knew right away that Amy would love our doggies like her own! Amy’s attention to detail and love for dogs is outstanding. I am so glad we found her to take care of our dogs on such short notice. In addition to being a nice person, Amy went out of her way to visit the dogs three times and get comfortable with them off leash so they could still play fetch while we were gone. She stayed in our apartment and left it probably even cleaner than we left it for her! Amy checked in with us daily and sent many pictures. The dogs were happy and also exhausted (from so much play!) when we got back. I’m so happy to have found her and will definitely look to book her again if we leave town and cannot take the doggies. Thank you Amy! I can’t recommend her enough.”
Parkside pet parents share their Rover experiences
Janesia did a great job with our pup Charlie! She kept in touch with messages and pictures throughout the stay. Our house was clean when we arrived home and she even left us some homemade cupcakes. She was very professional, friendly, and attentive. We look forward to her pet sitting for us in the future!
Michaela has been fantastic in getting to know our pup and staying with her for a few days. She is very conscientious and professional, emphasizing communication and thoroughness. She took great care of our pup, ensuring she was happy, healthy, and safe. She also took excellent care of our home. Everything was clean and organized upon our return. Michaela is a gem!
Amy was great! Everything from setting up a meet and great, in which she was very organized, asked great questions, took great concern for my dog Bobo's care and needs, as well and addition stuff like, getting the mail, watering plants, garbage, picking up after my dog and any special needs and requests that might be needed during the stay. She sent photos's and communication. I knew Bobo's was in great care. This was the first time I has left Bobo with anyone as he does have some separation anxiety and Amy handled it very well and I felt at ease knowing Bobo was in good hands. I will definitely be hiring Amy again for my future Bobo sitting needs.
Bryan was amazing! Everything about the experience was perfect. I was worried about leaving my dog with a sitter for the first time, but so thankful to find Bryan. He kept me informed with pictures and text of my dog, Jack. Jack can be shy of strangers, but he seemed to really bond with Bryan. Bryan also took wonderful care of my house, and left it immaculate. I would use Bryan again in a heartbeat, and whole heartily recommend him as a sitter for all your pet care needs! Thank you so much, Bryan!
Pamela always takes great care of Bradley. He is very old and has the needs of an old dog. She is very understanding and accepts his little quirks. She sends updates and pictures so I don't have to worry. We had a flight cancellation and she said not to worry, she would stay the extra day.
Brooklyn did a fantastic job watching our two morkies over a weekend period. We especially appreciated her proactive style of communication, her calm when dealing with any issues, and of course all the pictures of our pups throughout the day while we were away. Would definitely recommend her services and book with her again. Thanks Brooklyn!
Olivine was amazing! Our 3 pups absolutely loved her and so did we. She’s great with communication and we got updates and pictures daily. Leaving for any trip can be so scary but with Olivine watching the girls I didn’t have anything to worry about! Thanks Olivine!
