Win went above and beyond to make sure our pup was well cared for and we were comfortable with the whole process. She is extremely thorough and professional and we’re so glad we have someone we can count on when we need someone to care for Penny. Thank you, Win!

Lesley is fantastic! She is so kind and just a natural cat person. My cat instantly adored her and was completely at ease around her. Lesley is also incredibly responsive and thoughtful. She came by for a meet and greet and even stopped by for a second time to make sure my apartment door would open correctly. She was always prompt, extremely responsible, and provided everything my cat needed. Lesley sends wonderful notes and lots of pictures too. She is just one of the most lovely people I’ve met and I feel so lucky to have found her on rover! Thank you Lesley for proving such excellent care for Pookie and being so kind. I’m so grateful I found you! If I could give you more than five stars I would!

Laura was awesome! Cannot recommend enough. She really loves animals and it shows. My pup can be a little shy with strangers and can bark and come off as annoying but she was so patient and understanding and by the time I came home they were playing together. She gave me the most detailed updates on my dog, they were funny and charming. I read them out loud to my friends and we had a good laugh! She kept my home clean and followed all my directions. Laura is the best person to watch your pet in the PNW! We love her! ❤️

Wow! Lauren is hands down the best person we’ve had watch our pets in the years we’ve had with them. She is thoughtful, loving and cares for them as if they are her own. I loved receiving their rover cards and how much she loved on them while we were away. I was super confident in her ability to take care of our pets and would feel comfortable with her watching them again anytime. 13/10 would recommend Lauren to everyone! Such a delight and a lovely person. Thank you endlessly :)

Brittany D. is a trustworthy and compassionate Pet Sitter! I am delighted to share my experience with Brittany, a phenomenal pet sitter and dog walker who has proven to be an invaluable asset to our furry family members. I have entrusted Brittany with the care of my beloved pets on multiple occasions, and each time, she has exceeded my expectations. One of the standout qualities that sets Brittany apart is her unwavering commitment to the safety and well-being of pets. Her genuine love for animals is evident in the meticulous attention to detail she provides, ensuring that every pet in her care feels comfortable and secure. I have complete peace of mind knowing that my pets are in Brittany's capable hands. Reliability is another key strength that defines Brittany's pet care services. Whether it's a scheduled daily walk or an extended pet-sitting assignment, Brittany consistently demonstrates a strong sense of responsibility and punctuality. Her dedication to maintaining a reliable schedule not only puts pet parents at ease but also creates a sense of routine and stability for the animals she cares for. Brittany's responsiveness is truly commendable. Communication is seamless and prompt, providing constant updates and reassurance. It's evident that she values clear and transparent communication, ensuring that pet parents are always in the loop regarding their furry companions. This level of attentiveness contributes significantly to a positive and trusting relationship between pet owners and Brittany. What I appreciate most about Brittany is her remarkable ability to connect with both dogs and cats. While many pet sitters excel with one species or the other, Brittany has a unique talent for understanding and interacting with animals of all kinds. Her patience and gentle approach make her particularly adept at handling shy cats, creating a stress-free environment for even the most timid feline friends since she has two of her own at home! I wholeheartedly recommend Brittany as a pet sitter and dog walker on Rover. Her passion for animals, reliability, and exceptional communication skills make her an ideal choice for any pet parent seeking top-notch care for their furry companions. With Brittany, you can rest assured that your pets are not only in good hands but in the hands of someone who genuinely cares for their well-being.

About: For many years, I have been a dog sitter for family, friends, and strangers; allowing me to stay in their homes to care for their dogs. I have been entrusted to do so time and time again. I have worked with and cared for dogs of all types, sizes, and ages. I have trained some puppies as in potty training amd small tricks. Senior dogs are my favorite but I don't stray from any dog. I have also cared for dogs with special needs, medications, and health issues. I love all dogs, even the ones that have the zoomies. I have complete time access to play, love, and care for your fur babies. With exceptions of small errands for myself, I can hang out and keep your furry ones company most of the day if needed. I live in a top story apartment, so small dogs are best to care for in my home. However, caring for dogs in a client's home is best. I make sure to listen to their daily routines with their dogs and stick to those routines so the dog doesn't feel out of place or off schedule.

I have known Angie for 15 years. Dogs are her life! She has always owned a dog as long as I have known her. Better yet, she's a certified dog trainer so your dog will be in great hands and get some training as well. She can't help herself. I highly recommend Angie!
