“Cynthia was absolutely amazing with Eddie! She was very communicative and made me feel very at ease with the drop off and pick ups. I recommend her for boarding and I'll be booking again I'm the future!”
“When faced with boarding our daily doggy companion, Ike, we were lucky to find Erin. She gave us photos and reports of Ike's adjustment to his new temporary home, which was comforting and appreciated. We will use Erin again if she is available. 5 thumbs up!”
“Our dog Gus stayed with Tony and had an absolute blast! Tony was amazing about sending daily pictures and videos, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. Gus looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. We could tell he was having the best time! We’ll definitely be booking with Tony again — highly recommend!”
“Brandi was amazing! Our dogs stayed with her for a week and were very well taken care of. She kept us updated with pictures and a check in each day. In every picture, our dogs looked so happy! Brandi handled our dog’s medication and their little quirks with ease. Drop off and pick up were easy. She really went above and beyond!”
“Long overdue review... Wonderful home, children and dogs for Mia to have had plenty of fun with! Brianna was accommodating with our long stay request for Mia. Home away from home! Thank you for taking care of Mia for us!!!”
“We went on a family trip over Thanksgiving for 4 nights/5days, a longer getaway from our very loved family dog. Kristin was amazing at checking in, sending pics to ease my nerves of Coco’s well being. Kristin made sure Coco was well cared for and even went out of her way to make sure of Coco’s comfortably. Kristin is very knowledgeable and has a love for animals so I definitely would recommend her.”
“Robert was great with my dogs. They had a nice place to sleep and play. I think they thought they were on vacation. He was very thoughtful about making the dogs feel at home. Will definitely bring them back again!”
“We left our young puppy Harley with Kelsey for a couple nights at a very last minute request on thanksgiving and she did an amazing job, kept us updated with photos and constant communication. She has a clean home with a loving big pup Jack. We knew he was in good hands right away when we met and we’ll recommend her to anyone we know with dogs or cats. Definitely rebooking!”
“All it takes now is for me to say Allison's name and my dog's ears perk up and she's ready to get into the car. She loves her "vacations" with Allison and family (including her dog, who my dog adores). My dog always comes home so content. I drive 45 min there and back and it's absolutely worth the peace of mind of knowing my dog is safe, loved, and having the time of her life ❤️”
“I rarely leave my fur baby with anyone. Linda & Robert were fantastic! Zoe was well cared for. The communication was exceptional. Very thankful for the love shown to my sweet girl.”
About: I have trained my dogs for the last 10 years, I have bathed and clipped my dog and cats nails for 10 years, friends and family have relied on me to watch, walk, feed and bathe their pets for over 20 years. I currently am a stay at home mom which allows me to pay more attention to animals in my care. I currently take my dog to the dog park multiple times a week along with walks daily to help keep her active and healthy. Adding your fur friend will be an added bonus for us. I do not have a fenced yard so I prefer to watch them in my clients house, this also helps with the stress the pet may feel with being with a stranger.
“Tina was amazing! She agreed to take our puppy last minute, the night before Thanksgiving, as we were headed out of town overnight and our other dog sitter cancelled on us with no notice. Tina is very communicative and we felt very comfortable leaving him with her. This was our first time using Rover, that being said, we would highly recommend Tina and we will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Kimberley and her family (two and four legged both) loved on my dog, Charlie, for 5 days. She had good attention to detail, noting how Charlie was interacting with everyone. Charlie came home nice and tired and in really good shape emotionally. Highly recommend.”
“Jennifer took great care of my little buddy ! I was so nervous leaving him with someone for the first time. She sent pictures and updates, it made me feel at ease and comfortable about his stay. When I picked him up he was super happy and didn't even bark when I came to the door. She did such an awesome job for us, I can't say ebough to express our thanks and gratitude. ❤️ We will definitely be bringing him back to her the next time we need him cared for ! Thank you Jennifer and family ! ❤️?”

“Kelly and her family are amazing! I truly believe they made our dogs part of their family even if it was just for the weekend. She meet with me prior to our dogs stay to meet them and ensure they would be comfortable staying in her home. Kelly sent me pictures throughout our dogs stay which showed me our dogs were being well taken care of and loved. Our dogs loved playing with their puppy and were exhausted when they got home. I will definitely be using Kelly for future Rover stays.”
“We had a same day request so we could fly to California to be with our daughter for an emergency surgery and Kristin was available ! Thank you Kristin for being available to watch our fur babies !”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! 🐾 I’ve been caring for them since I was 12, and I’ve never been without at least one cat in my life. 😻❤️ I’m the kind of person who gets excited about meeting ALL the animals — cats, dogs, goats, chickens, horses, sheep, and even the little guys! 🐶🐱🐐🐔🐴🐑 I’ve worked with animal rescues, fostered animals, cared for friends’ pets and referrals, and have plenty of hands-on experience with my own animals. I’m also comfortable giving medications and following specific care instructions to keep your pets happy, healthy, and on their normal routine. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets and animals who need a little extra TLC. ❤️ I understand that older pets may need slower walks, extra patience, help getting comfortable, medications, more frequent potty breaks, belly bands or simply someone willing to sit beside them and provide companionship. I know every animal has their own personality. Some want to play, some want endless cuddles, and some need a little time to decide if they approve of you! 😄 I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the attention, patience, and love they deserve. Whether they have paws, hooves, feathers, or fur, I’ll treat your animals like family while you’re away. Your pets get care, companionship, and plenty of love — and I get to spend time with animals. Sounds like a pretty great day to me! 🐾💕 I am available almost anytime to care for your pet in my home or yours, I am extremely flexible! Think of me when you're planning your vacations! 🏡 Care Where Your Pets Feel Most Comfortable! 🐾 Whether your pets stay in your home or in my home, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. ❤️ I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets — and your home. I’m respectful, dependable, attentive, and treat every home and every animal with the same care I would want for my own. From keeping their normal routines to giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, feeding, and medications, I’ll make sure they’re well cared for and happy while you’re away. I have small, fenced acreage for the pups to play in or I can keep them leashed for walks. I live down a long, private drive so there's no need to worry about traffic. You can relax knowing your pets are in safe, caring, and trustworthy hands! 🐶🐱🐴🐐🐔💕

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rainier
Nothing but great things to say about Ashleigh. Communicative when inquiring about our pups. Sends pictures and does well with getting them acclimated to her home environment. Our dogs got along with Ashleigh’s fur babies and that was a bit of a concern at first as she has bigger pups. It was great that she had space outside for them to roam and play. Our dogs love to explore, run and play. I would definitely recommend Ashleigh to anyone and we will be utilizing her services again. Thanks Ashleigh!
Ashleigh was so great :) I love that she already has her own little “pack” of well-trained doggies for mine to play with. You can tell how much she loves and cares for her animals, which immediately put me at ease. She sent tons of pics throughout their stay, and my dogs always looked like they were having the time of their lives! Another huge plus is her property. She has a large, completely secure area where the dogs have plenty of room to explore and play (and get super dirty I'm sure). However, she bathes your dogs before you pick them up - so I'm only guessing because I came home to two clean, happy dogs! I also had an unexpected emergency and needed to add an extra night at the very last minute, and Ashleigh was so accommodating. She even offers pickup and drop-off services, which is another great perk if you can't get to her. I seriously can't recommend Ashleigh enough! She's absolutely going to be my go-to whenever I need someone to watch my dogs. 10/10

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Rainier can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Rainier home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Rainier.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rainier. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Rainier sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
