“Allison is amazing! She is so attentive to our dog’s energy and quirks and is so thoughtful about caring for her. She pays a lot of attention to our instructions and makes sure our girl is happy and comfy the whole time. She is extremely communicative and sends a lot of photos and updates. She also takes great care of the space. Absolutely would feel great having her take care of our pup any time!”
“Lisa took great care of our 11 week old puppy we were leaving for the 1st extended period…we are beyond happy on the entire experience and will definitely have her again!”
“Great communication and experience with Chloe - did an amazing job during an overnight sitting so that we could enjoy a rare “date night” over in Seattle. Nice updates and photos during our absence. Will use again!”
“Shayla did a wonderful job with taking care of our dog and our house while we were away. She sent pictures and updates while we were gone which I really appreciated. Our dog seemed very happy and liked Shayla. Our house was spotless when we came home. We felt very comfortable having her here and would recommend her to anyone to take care of their pets.”
“Dennis was a fantastic sitter. Excellent and regular communication, and he demonstrated real care for our dogs. He was flexible and easy to work with, and the dogs loved him. We will definitely use Dennis again!”
“Wendy is a dream pet sitter! She stayed with our two dogs for two days, and the entire experience was seamless. It was immediately clear how thoughtful and caring she is; our dogs were happy, relaxed, and well-loved in her care. Wendy is also exceptionally tidy. We were thrilled to return to a spotless home after our trip. It gave us such peace of mind to know both our pups and our house were in such capable hands. We would welcome her back in a heartbeat!”
“Cassie did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 labs and 1 cat while we were away on vacation and made sure the house stayed in good working order! Her schedule was flexable enough to house sit Thursday through Sunday which allowed us to travel out of state and the primary reason we went with her. She stayed in constant communication and was swift with her reply! She gave us peace of mind knowing our pets where being well taken care for which allowed us to enjoy our vacation!”
“Zoe was the absolute BEST sitter we’ve ever had!! She went above and beyond. Cooper’s so happy, I don’t even think he wants me back! I will be looking for her every single time we need a sitter from now on. Thanks Zoe!!”
“Paula was perfect for our girls! She was very attentive and we felt incredibly comfortable with how she handled each dog with expertise and care. Our dogs were happy in all their pictures she sent and she was great at communicating to let us know they were all good through the visit! We would absolutely book Paula again!”
About: I adore all animals but these last 15 years I’ve got to work with dogs and I am obsessed! I have worked in boarding and daycare business! In a boarding and daycare facility i participated in interdicting and watching dogs in a social setting! During boarding following owners instructions for feeding, medication and caring for the dogs! I’ve been first aid and cpr trained! Lots of wound care and being familiar with health warnings and communicating that to parents! I do not have any fear of any breeds and meet dogs at their level! I enjoy active dogs, absolutely love puppies but the tcups and seniors have my heart! My almost 13 year old always been chill, I love to be very active and my biggest perk working with dogs is I get little bit of it all! 15 years I have learned a lot and what works for me is I meet the pup where they are at! Never gonna be a millionaire but I get paid to walk and play with dogs!! Win win Available after 10am until 6pm for drop ins or walks! May be able to do over nights in parents home if there is separate space for me and my dog! Very negotiable! Dogs and cats are quick and unpredictable! I always pay attention to my environment, being cautious with doors! Respecting pets in their own environment, it’s their job to protect it! On walks making sure I am clear with boundaries when coming across other pets! I have had a slightly reactive dog (fear aggression) when on leash, so always avoiding setting her up for an uncomfortable situation for her! When your dog is with me I treat them same as I do mine!
“We were so lucky to find Leah. Exceptionally trust worthy and gave my Leo the best love and care! Frenchie’s need special care and anxiety support when we travel and Leo was so chilled when we returned!”
“Lizeth was phenomenal and our dog Phoebe—who is a puppy and can be a bit much. Phoebe adored her. She took extra care and gave her a lot of walks. She was very tired when we got home.”
“Robin was conscientious and attentive to Gilly and was willing to stay with Gilly in our home. Gilly had a good time and I felt comfortable leaving her with Robin for a week.”
“Took amazing care of my dogs. Best Rover experience to date. Kris and Laura go above and beyond. My dogs absolutely loved them. Was able to enjoy my time away knowing such great people were taking care of them. Thank you!!”
“Luna was absolutely amazing! I was so anxious to leave Penny with someone, but she was incredible — gave me updates throughout the stay and was respectful of her needs. She also kept my house in great shape and I felt safe having her stay with my dog. I look forward to using Luna’s services in the future and would definitely recommend her!”
“Emily is always a great sitter for our two cats. She communicates quickly and is flexible to reasonable requests for time changes due to travel changes. Our baby kitty is typically very shy with strangers and after just a couple pet sittings with Emily he comes running to greet her. Emily also is very tidy which is an added bonus as other pet sitters have not been as conscientious. Highly recommend Emily!”
About: I work remotely as a RN, which gives me flexibility to care for your animal and home during the day and night. I have 30 years experience with horses, dogs, cats, and a variety of other farm animals. I’m comfortable with care of puppies to seniors and those with medical needs. My typical day M-F has work meetings and projects. This allows for flexibility to play with your pet, offer snuggles, and get outside! Weekends are low key for me and can generally flex to make things work best for your needs. I currently don’t have any animals of my own and would love to focus on yours! If I’m house sitting and your pup or kitty likes field trips and mixing things up, and it’s appropriate, we may go on a safe adventure . We sometimes stop over to my place and hike the forest next door , or some other cool trail on the island , or perhaps hit the beach, or a dog friendly store for treats. Otherwise we stick to your neighborhood and routine.
Scandia pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lisa was great. She made sure that she was on top of our “arrangements” and visited us twice before dog/house sitting. She was very flexible when weather affected our travel plans. Our dog loved her and she kept us up to date with lots of photos. And she left our house cleaner and tidier than we left it. Please don’t book her so she is always available for us!🤣
Kathrine did an excellent job watching our animals (one dog and two cats) while we were away for four nights. She provided lots of photos and daily updates. She also asked great questions and was able to help our dog when she realized he had a cracked nail that was bothering him. Katherine is very observant, conscientious and professional. The animals loved her and I think the house might have been cleaner when we returned than when we left. Highly recommended!
Bethany was absolutely amazing! She is so great with our dogs by giving them extra cuddles and long walks at the beach. Her dog gets along with our pups so well! She also is so great at keeping our home clean just like how we left it! We highly recommend!
Joseph was kind, communicative, and clearly cared about my pets. He provided regular photo updates throughout my trip, which gave me peace of mind, and his rates were very reasonable. My pets seemed calm and comfortable around him, which speaks highly of how he interacted with them. There were a couple of areas where clearer communication would have helped. I had shared that my dog shouldn’t be left alone for more than 8 hours, but there was a day she was alone longer than that due to a change in plans. I wasn’t aware ahead of time, and with earlier notice I would have been able to arrange additional support. Similarly, on the first day, the arrival time shifted from the expected 8am to closer to 11am without prior notice, which made it difficult to adjust plans on my end. Overall, Joseph is kind, affordable, and attentive with animals. With more proactive communication around schedule changes, he could provide an even better experience.
