“I’m in town for work and wanted to take a day trip to Lynnwood to see a friend. I didn’t want to have to worry about getting back to my pup throughout the day for potty breaks and what not. It was a last minute request and Emily was very accommodating and was able to watch him for the day! I’ve never left my dogs with anyone besides a friend, so the helicopter dog mom in me was nervous. Emily made me feel comfortable with leaving my chihuahua in her care. I picked up a happy, healthy pup at the end of the day. I would definitely hire her again and will recommend her to all of my Longview colleagues with doggos. 💜”
About: Military Veteran | Lifelong Animal Lover Hello! My name is Kortni, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Since the age of 8, I’ve had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals—from horses and livestock to dogs, cats, and even fish. My experience comes from both personal ownership and working alongside professional trainers, always with the goal of providing well-rounded, compassionate care. During my time in the military, I was fortunate to have a few incredible opportunities to work with military working dogs—an experience that deepened my respect for animal intelligence, discipline, and emotional needs. Now that I’ve recently transitioned out of the military, I’m taking time to reconnect with the things I love most: animals, nature, and a slower pace of life. That also means I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to your pet’s unique needs—whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, playtime, or sticking to a specific routine. This is my passion, and what I do for work. I currently have an 8-year-old Australian Shepherd at home who’s the biggest spoiled lap dog you’ll ever meet. I understand how much our pets mean to us, and I treat every animal in my care like one of my own—with love, patience, and attention to detail. Special diet? Specific routine? Just let me know—I’m happy to accommodate. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for while you're away. You can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet!
“Trinity is very kind, gentle and responsible. She took great care of my puppy. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave a pet with her. She seems like a really great person who will go far and do well.”
“We are so lucky to have found Pamela! Great communication from beginning to end. She took amazing care of my Benny and was kind and patient with this new experience! 10/10 Great job! We will schedule with Pamela again soon!”
“I'm very new to the area and I needed someone to watch my 2 corgis with short notice. Jennifer responded fast and she was very flexible with my chaotic schedule. Excellent communication before, during, and after our reservation and my dogs were content and happy. I would recommend Jennifer and use in the future! Thank you!”
About: My love for animals started as a child and since then I have been pet sitting and more recently taking care of animals as a veterinary assistant. I have experience with a variety of animals. I am currently working 3-4 days a week with 2-3 days off in a row. My husband is also home starting in the early afternoon every day. Our loving pet home has a one year old and four year old dog and two cats that can’t wait to welcome your pet. Our dogs have a nice fenced in yard to run and play in as often as they’d like throughout the day. Playing with toys or balls is a big part of my day since my dog loves to play.
About: Rescue Ranch is 15 acres of forest and fenced pasture to play in. I am happy to host your pets while you are away. Animal love and care is what this farm is all about.

I am retired and spending all my time on the farm and in the woods. Your pet is welcome to join me out here in God's country.

I have cared for a large variety of farm animals including assisting difficult births, administering both oral and injected meds, surgery recovery, wound care, suture removal, bottle feeding, wound care, seizure management, etc.
“Angela is a wonderful dog sitter and clearly has such a love for animals. Grace loved doggy daycare and was so excited to come back each day. Angela's communication was great and she was really kind and flexible with unexpected schedule changes. I highly recommend her as a caring, reliable person providing excellent pet care.”
About: I have had dogs for 40 years. I have cared for them from being puppies to 17 years of age. We treat all pets with love and kindness. my Cocker Spaniel, Winni, is loved and cared for and given daily walks. I always feel she has me trained. She is always nice to other animals, even when she sees a bunny in our yard she just wants to look at it instead of chasing it. lol I have a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. I can give medication and take for a daily walk. I always feel animals need more than watching, they need cuddles and affection and someone to talk to them
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since elementary school. Training horses and dogs has been my passion. Understanding dogs instincts and pack language helps me better serve their unique needs and personalities. My 35 years of animal care encompasses dog sitting, training, flying cross country on cabin with pup, breeding, and rearing physically and emotionally solid pups. I’ve ventured with my 4-legged buddies on hikes, walks, beach trips, long car drives, hotel stays, retirement homes, schools, river floats, horse rides, ranch work, and river walks. Living in the beautiful PNW there’s always fun to have with our pooches! I’m a work at home mom with four children and a beautiful tribe of animal, loving people. Kids and animals have routines to thrive. There’s always someone home to be with the dogs so no fur babe left behind on our watch. We go places the dogs can ride with us. Exploring the logging roads and nature walks are everyone’s favorite. Fenced yard and doggo doors allow for in and out as they please while at home. Routine starts with breakfast. Then it’s playtime with the kids while farm chores take place. If your dog eats 3x a day we’ll do lunch, more playtime, rest time since this is equally as important. Mental stimulation to stay sharp means using snuffle rugs, treat dispensers, hand feeding meals while reinforcing manners and obedience. My kids have a schedule and boundaries as do the animals giving everyone peace of mind.
About: I love animals and have been around and cared for them all of my life. I have two dogs of my own and owned a horse ranch for the last 20 years. I now live in a new neighborhood, with a fully fenced yard. I do work during the day so my husband cares for our Rover pets while I am gone. All dogs love him and he is home during the day. I am a very experienced horse owner and can provide care for livestock as well as cats, dogs and birds. I raised Andalusian horses and have been around them most of my life. Pets are my passion, are important and I love to be around them. They make me happy and I would love to pamper your pets! For house sitting clients, I do work from 6-2pm. I am happy to house sit but am gone during those hours. My husband lets the dogs out as needed all day long. He is home all of the time, so we do not leave our boarders alone. Our clients pets interact with our own pets. We cannot take in pets that do not get along with other dogs and cats. Our boarders will sleep with us or on their own bed if one is brought.
About: Dogs are life. I've raised and trained several puppies, healed sick dogs with herbs and cared generally for dogs my entire life. I actually became an herbalist because I started healing dogs first. I live and work at home so I currently have all the time in the world to pamper, hike with and love up your pups. I have a fenced yard in the back and a whole 5 acres of roaming land and a doggo to keep your company and show em the lay of the land.
“Samantha loved her visit with Liz and Charlie! They were able to take her without much notice which was nice. I received lots of photos of my baby and a great video! I could tell she had so much fun and was totally worn out when she got home. Highly recommend!”

Heaven provided amazing care for my dog. She went above and beyond. My dog Raven seemed very happy when I picked her up. She was taken for walks and received lots of extra attention. I would highly recommend Heaven as she made me feel very comfortable with hiring her for the job. She was also very kind and communicated with me thru messages and even sent pictures from their walks. I will definitely book her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Rainier is $32 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $45 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 270 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Rainier. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Rainier commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 270 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of OR. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 Meet & Greet.
