“Katie and Samuel were great to Jarvis and sent us several updates throughout his stay. They also have a gated backyard to help with energetic dogs. I would highly reccomend!”

“Lindsey did a fantastic job of taking care of Coco. During my trip, I had travel delays and Lindsey was more than accommodating to help with last minute changes. She gave me frequent updates on Coco and I felt very at ease knowing that my fur baby was in very good hands. Would highly recommend!”

“Kristin & family provided attentive & thorough care for our energetic puppy! Receiving regular updates was appreciated, as was their clear & responsive communication.”

“This was Henry's second time staying with Michelle and her family, and he had a great time! I really appreciated the updates and pictures throughout his stay. I will definitely book with Michelle again :)”

“They did a great job providing updates and showing that our dog was having a great time. They were responsive and easy to work with, and could tell that they really cared for our dog.”

“Jennifer and her family took amazing care of Finn. Also, their dog is super sweet and played well with my dog. Cant wait to have Jennifer sit Finn again soon!”

“Mary took our dog for our wedding weekend and she was great! Pugsy had a great time with her dog, going on a walk, and going to the dog park! She sent pictures and we did not worry about Pugsy at all! We will definitely book with Mary in the future!”

“Just picked up Roux from what I fondly refer to as "Camp Cleda". While happy to see me, I think he is always a bit sad to leave his second home. This was a 2 week trip and I always worry a bit. But Cleda continues to be responsive, kind, and Roux loves her. So thankful!”

“Robert was a great host for Mazzi. He sent daily updates/photos. Robert has a large backyard that Mazzi loved to run around during play time.”

“Our dog Gatsby has stayed with Edith on multiple occasions and always has a wonderful time! We love all of the updates that Edith sends and we know that he is getting the best of care while we are away. Even when our dog has less than stellar behavior Edith takes it all in stride and keeps us updated. Thank you Edith!”

“Christine did a great job with our Kenny! She sent pictures and texts for us to stay in touch with his activities as well. I appreciate her care to our third child! :)”

“Emily and her family took amazing care of my dog Dove! They welcomed her as part of the family and did a great job gauging and responding to her energy level as needed. Emily was excellent with communication, updates, and giving Dove her daily pill. I knew Dove was being so well taken care of, and I (and she) look forward to having her stay with Emily again in the future!”

About: Hiello! I’m a lifelong animal lover and UW medical student with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for my own pets—my cat Aya (10 years) and my Italian Greyhound, Artemis (4+ years). I understand that every animal has a unique personality and needs, and I treat each pet in my care with the same patience, gentleness, and attentiveness I give my own. You can trust that your pet will be safe, deeply cared for, and truly loved while you’re away. I also have training in BLS for med school and have handled medical care for my own pets when needed. As I'm already walking my own dog and taking him out regularly, adding another dog (or dogs) to the mix is no problem! :) I am an MD/PhD student currently in my PhD years and have flexible hours for work. I can board dogs, but won't be able to board other cats (although I can do any drop-ins throughout the week). I am available for drop-ins any day except Tuesday night between 5-8pm, but I could do afterwards if needed. In my apartment, pets are cared for in a calm, structured, and loving environment. I have multiple spaces available so pets can have quiet downtime or separation if they need it, while still feeling safe and comfortable. My dog is very friendly and enjoys the company of other animals, but I always prioritize each pet’s individual comfort and boundaries. I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and rest—and provide plenty of affection and supervision. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and maintain your pet’s normal schedule to help them feel secure and stress-free.
“Julie was absolutely fantastic. She knows dog behavior very well and I completely trusted her with my 12 week old puppy who is very nervous. Julie went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was comfortable and well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Ryan and Jocelyn made our first River experience amazing! We had another sitter cancel on us last minute, but thankfully Ryan & Jocelyn were quick to save the day!! They were flexible, great communication with many photo updates and took great care of our pup! Would definitely feel comfortable using them again.”

“My dog had a great time staying with Grace while I was out of town for the weekend! She sent lots of pictures and updates so I knew she was doing well. She got lots of walks and came home super happy and tired. She even whined when we left to say she was sad she was leaving lol. We would definitely book with Grace again!”

“Tessa did an amazing job watching Rena. She gave the best pup-dates complete with pictures and videos so we had peace of mind knowing our gal was doing ok! Tessa took extra care understanding Rena had some anxiety and gave her love, attention, and - most importantly - lots of walks and outdoor time. We can’t thank Tessa enough!”

“Our quirky rescue pup was so well taken care of while we were away! In every update we got it was clear that our dog was feeling more and more comfortable and was left in good hands. We will definitely book again!”

She was amazing with my dog-Zuri! Super kind, very attentive, and always kept me in the loop with regular updates and cute pics. When Zuri wasn’t eating her usual food, she even cooked chicken — above and beyond! Everything went smoothly, and she’s officially my favorite pet sitter now. Arty (her dog) has become Zuri's best friend 🥳 Would 100% recommend her to anyone. 🐶💛

I am a fellow Rover sitter and used Janice to watch our pups for an 8 day vacation. We will 100% utilize them again in the future. The pups were well taken care for and were very comfortable in their care. Janice was kind enough to worked with us to rebook our vacation after the Hurricane destroyed our resort in Jamaica. Janice kept up us to date and informed. Simply a great place to board your fur babies!

Huge thank you for taking such wonderful care of my puppy while I was away, it’s a relief to know she was in such good hands. I really appreciate the care and attention you gave her, love all of the pictures and the flexibility for pickup and drop off. Thanks again!!!

Meaghan and her husband are very kind people with a beautiful home and a large fenced-in backyard. Meaghan was very good about sending a lot of pictures and updates throughout our dog’s stay and we felt very comfortable having our dog stay in their home. They have a very sweet dog of their own that my dog quickly bonded with, and they were playful together. Highly recommend!

Karen did a great job in taking care of our Nakia. She is 13 years old and this is the first time she has stayed with someone she did not know. Karen kept us informed about her and sent frequent pictures. Made us feel secure in knowing she was well cared for. We are thankful for Karen’s wonderful care that she does with love. Dottie
