“Janessa loves dogs. She is committed to doing the very best for the dogs in her care. I am happy to have found her. By the way, I drive from Seattle to reach her, that's how good she is.”
“Lexi was great! She kept me well informed and had a good dog area in her basement and yard. Sammy was well cared for and she had a great time playing with the other dogs. I plan to use her again!”
“Our dog, Jake, had a great time boarding with Cynthia. He got tons of outdoor playtime with several other dogs and enjoyed himself. Came home healthy and happy. We will definitely have him board with Cynthia again!”
“My dog was well taken care of. She seemed happy to have spent time in such a wide open space. Eryn was great at sending photos and reporting on my dog's condition. We will try and us”
“Jeanne has become our preferred sitter, as she's cared for our dog a half-dozen times now. She is always welcoming, kind, accommodating and patient. She's so knowledgeable about dogs, we know he's in good hands. She treats her doggy guests as if they're her own furry family, gives plenty of attention and active play, and our Max gets excited as soon as we pull into her driveway; we're sure that's because he remembers how much he likes it there. :-)”
“I’m so thankful for Ingrid. She took care of my two boys with patience and understanding, working with me to make them as comfortable as possible. She handled their anxious moments with calm and kindness, and her daily updates gave me total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and I couldn’t recommend her more for anyone looking for a patient, caring, and reliable sitter!”
“Taylor is great with dogs. My nervous-old-man of a pup received extra comfort while settling in the first night, and after that, he was glued to Taylor the rest of the stay. Barkley had walks and lots of outdoor time, sunbathing. He came home thoroughly wiped out, but looking content. Taylor took me aside to talk about Barkley's arthritis on pickup, which I appreciated. We already have a plan with the vet to tackle it, but to see him care so much about Barkley that he wants to ensure he's living his best life was heartwarming. It seems like Taylor and his house are very dog-first.”
“Anji took the best care of our little 1 yr old, Juno!! After we dropped her off, Juno had her first heat, which Anji was extremely prepared to handle and was the best care giver during this time. Their home is also the perfect dog heaven with a huge backyard to play in all day and always a dog or two to play with. I don’t think Juno missed us for one second, she was having too much fun and came home a very happy and sleepy pup! Anji was also great to work with during the booking process, meet and greet, and coordinating logistics, she always sent plenty of updates and photos during our trip as well. Will definitely be booking her services again in the future!”
“Stephanie was great! Super communicative and helpful with my senior dog who needed a some extra care. I booked for day care and had check ins to see what was needed each day. I knew I could trust her with everything including ensuring medication was given when needed.”
“Diana and her kids are wonderful! They last minute helped us out and cared for our silly pup Olive. The boys kept Olive busy and Diana is an excellent communicator. I only wish they lived closer to us. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Susannah and Sabine are absolutely amazing with our 15-year-old pup, kitties, and house. We are able to leave and not worry about everyone's needs being taken care of. We are grateful for their help!”
“This was our first time using Tim to care for our dog, but it won’t be our last! Our dog was very well taken care of while with Tim, and we enjoyed the pictures and updates. Tim is a great communicator and easy to make arrangements with.”
“Donnell and Ryan gave us just enough updates and photos to know that Buddy was adjusting fine. The boarding was 6 days and their home and fenced yard was ideal for our dog. Donnell and Ryan are experienced with dog behaviors and how to help a dog relax and feel safe with them. This was our first boarding through Rover and we were very happy with how it worked out.”
“Shelley provided great care to Lark and Jigglypuff. Shelley's pup got along well with mine in a clean, comfortable home for the day and night. I'll certainly rebook when I'm in the area!”
“Our one year old dog had a wonderful stay with Andrea over a long weekend. It was worked out with very short notice and I immediately felt relieved that we had found such a friendly accommodating option for our dog. My first impression was confirmed when we finally met and I could see how Andrea and her family included the dogs as extensions of their family. She sent photos and videos during the stay and communicating was extremely easy. My dog came home happy, and so SO tired from playing with her other dogs. I think our dog was actually missing her house for a few days. Hopefully he will get to go back sometime soon.”
“My dog has stayed with Pam numerous times now and I can tell he feels comfortable and relaxed at her house. Since my dog is a 10 year old anxious mess sometimes this means the world to me.”
“Best dog sitter EVER! Cheri takes her responsibility to give the best care to her guest dogs very seriously. Everyday, Chevy went on long hikes, swam in the lake, played fetch, and relaxed with her in the house. Thanks Cheri!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Rockdale home-away-from-home, 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 Rockdale.
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.
You and your Rockdale 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 , 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 .
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 WA 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.
