About: I have taken care of my own dogs since I was 7. I love going for walks with dogs and being there when needed. I am very available and dependable. I have stayed over night, taking care of relatives and close friend’s pets for around 4 years. I also have volunteered at the humane society, working with dogs and cats. I work a part time job and I go to school but I can do check in’s, walks, and over night stays to take care of pets when needed! I walk dogs, feed them, clean up after them, and I groom my own dogs. I spoil these pups and often get toys and treats for my own.

“Lauren has great knowledge of training techniques and dog behavior. She does a great job of getting the dogs out for walks and a change of scenery. My home was immaculate as well. I look forward to using Lauren again soon.”

“Mirle was great with my lab Gordie! I needed help last minute due to moving and she made it so easy taking amazing care of Gordie while I was gone. She kept me updated and sent photos of Gordie. Thank you so much! I would highly recommend using Mirle for your pets!”

“Sandy watched my three large dogs for nearly two weeks while I was away, staying in my home the whole time. She kept me updated and sent photos throughout, which I really appreciated. One of my dogs, Clyde, is a Pointer who tends to shut down and refuse food when I'm gone-with Sandy he was eating well throughout. I returned home to three happy, healthy dogs and a house that was genuinely well cared for. With three big dogs, that's no small thing. Would absolutely book her again.”

“We cannot say enough good things about Steve. Our dog Layla had the time of her life. He spent quality time with her keeping her active and entertained. When he stopped by she howled she was so excited to see him. That says it all. Hands down best sitter we’ve had.”

“Jasmine did a terrific job caring for my 2 Dobermans and my senior Havanese. I have been showing and boarding dogs professionally for over 20 years and I am so impressed with the care Jasmine provided for my dogs. I would highly recommend her for all ages and sizes of dogs. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Natasha was absolutely amazing!! We got so many pictures and updates, our babies were very well taken care of! They were so happy when we got home!! Our boys loved her so much! 10/10 recommend Natasha!! We will definitely have her back again!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was a little girl, growing up with them at home and walking them since I was 10. I really enjoy hiking, walking, being outside, and exercising. I've had a regular walking client for over a year now, and to keep things interesting, I often take him on hikes around the Wenatchee area instead of just walking around the neighborhood. I've had my own dog since I was 6, and she'll be 15 this July. I also have experience with senior dogs, high energy dogs, puppies, and XL dogs (like Cane Corsos, Newfoundlands, and St. Bernards) I also have experience in training dogs to behave and not pull on their leashes. As a student at both Eastmont High School and Wenatchee Valley College, I've found ways to integrate pet care into my daily life, especially when I'm studying or working on art projects. The dog or cat often hangs out with me, providing a calming presence for me. I like to take short breaks for a quick play session or a walk to refresh my mind. On weekends, I have more time for longer adventures and activities. It's great having a furry friend by my side while I tackle schoolwork or get creative! When I'm at a client's home, I always follow their specific instructions and routines to maintain consistency for the pet. This includes feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs they might have. I make sure to respect their home and create a positive, stress-free environment for their pet, focusing on safety, comfort, and lots of love and attention.
“Will was reliable and communicative. He took great care of Booma, including administering his medication. He left the house spotless, even washing his bed linens before leaving. This was a great help to us as we were returning from our time out of time. We would love to have him back for future sits.”

“Nicole was amazing with our young lab and kitty! She stayed at our house for a long stay. Took our dog for two walks a day, sent daily pics and updates. She allowed us to relax and not worry! I am so thankful for her, would highly recommend.”

About: Any and all dogs I will play with them non-stop until they are tired and take a nap. I don't care what kind of special treatment they need if that's what they need they will get it. i would one day like to have and run a dog daycare one day and this will be good practice. I may also buy them treats, i love to spoil dogs. I have had and taken care of lots of dogs for all my life. I'm saving up to get a new place so i can adopt some dogs and other animals. I'm not going to say I'm a professional but i will love your dog like its mine. Thank you for reading this and have a good rest of your day. I work from home doing editing mostly so my days and nights are flexible. I have taken care of dogs kinda all my life and cats for the last couple of years. If the pet as no special needs or requirements then it's your normal go on walks play lots of pets feeding on time making sure they drink water all. I'd definitely rather take them out have go to parks but that's not always an option. I'm going to ask what kinda things do you do with your pet that makes them happy favorite toy that kinda stuff

“Julia did an amazing job looking after my two dogs Rose and Lilo. She seems to really have a deep care for animals and I can tell they were well taken care of while I was away for a few days. Would highly recommend her to anyone needing their animals looked after as she will give the best care!”

“Shelly was super helpful and communicated and sent updates the whole time which made me feel very comfortable leaving my fur babies with her. I’m very thankful for the level of care she gave them while I was gone!”

About: I have cared for animals for 30 years. I love all animals and feel comfortable with cats and dogs alike! I would love to help your family any way I can! I am a full time teacher but I do have weekends available for care as well as pop-in care on Thursday and Friday evenings! Perfect for your weekend getaways! I feel comfortable playing, crating, walking, feeding and caring for all animals in the home. I will make sure your pet is loved and cared for during my visit and your home is ready for your to arrive comfortably back too!
About: Hi! I have over 3 years of hands-on pet sitting experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I also worked for a year in the boarding room of a veterinary clinic, where I was responsible for feeding, administering medications, monitoring behavior, and keeping pets safe and comfortable during their stay. What sets me apart is my veterinary boarding background combined with genuine love and patience for animals. I’m comfortable with senior pets who need extra attention, medication routines, or mobility support. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority — I care for them like they’re my own. I currently work as an EMT and have a consistent 2-days-on, 6-days-off schedule, which gives me plenty of dedicated time to care for and play with your pets. I’m available for both weekday and weekend pet sitting, and my extended time off allows me to provide attentive, reliable care whenever you need it. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, familiar environment. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own space, so I work hard to keep their routine consistent — from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and bedtime habits. I’m very mindful of home safety, ensuring doors, gates, and crates are securely closed, and I always double-check locks when coming and going. I keep food, medications, and household items safely stored, and I closely monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health. With my background working in a veterinary boarding setting and as an EMT, I stay calm, attentive, and prepared in any situation. Most importantly, I respect your home as if it were my own — keeping it clean, organized, and secure — while giving your pet loving, dependable care in the place they feel safest.

Rock Island pet parents share their Rover experiences
Karli stayed at our place for four nights with our spicy teenage dog. It was our first time away from him. We were worried because he is pretty high maintenance, but Karli took good care of him and our house. He was happy and tired when we got home and the house was immaculate. We highly recommend Karli as a sitter!
