“Our girl Rebel was so happy to and well taken care of. We got lots of photos and updates daily, it gave it peace of mind trust our baby was well taken care of and being loved.”
“Randsell was super communicative and was very caring! I could tell our cat was very reluctant in parting ways with her when I went to pick him up. I'm very grateful she was available last minute for our trip to cat sit.”
“Devan was great! Checked in with us regularly to let us know how Blaze was doing and settling in. I could tell that Blaze was well cared for and had a great time with Devan and his partner! Will definitely use him again!”
“Danielle and Joy took amazing care of my little Nori, so much so that when we went to leave, Nori was giving them kisses. It takes her a while to warm up to new people, so that just exemplifies how well they did with her. The daily communication was excellent, and they took her on many adventures. They made our time away completely without worry!”
“Mengyuan and Matt are honestly one of the best sitters in Seattle, hands down. Their communication is great both before the stay and during it, they always get back to me super fast which puts my mind at ease. They send tons of photos every single day without me even having to ask, which I love. You can tell my dog is having the time of her life, she gets so excited every time we pull up to drop her off, which says everything you need to know lol. Cant recommend them enough!”
“Rachael was great. She provided me regular updates on my pup while he stayed with her, which I very much appreciated. She also responded to any and all of my communications quickly and was very flexible. Would definitely recommend.”
“Ruslana was great with my anxious little girl. Ellie warmed up to her quickly which is rare. Ruslana sent regular updates and worked with me on a flexible pick up. Would definitely have Ellie stay again and highly recommend.”
“Janet was AMAZING with my high-energy pup, Ducky. She took her on multiple outings per day, to both Magnuson dog park and Discovery park, and made sure my baby got plenty of excercise, which is exactly what I want in a dog sitter. She also did a great job checking in with me and sending lots of pictures. She has a talent for photography and has now taken some of the best pictures of my dog that I own 😅. Will definitely be booking with Janet again!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog Charlie since we lost her big brother, so we were a little nervous. Kevin and Kandace were amazing and very quickly set us at ease! We loved getting pictures to regularly update us on her adventures with them, and she came home happy as can be! Will definitely be booking again in the future :)”
“We had such a great experience with Mrs.Hong. She sent daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the very beginning that she truly cared about my dog and treated him like family, not just a booking. Jax came home happy and clearly well-loved. Communication was excellent, and we always felt confident that he was in great hands. I will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely loves dogs.”
“Pramukh was amazing with Opal! This was my first time leaving her with him, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. He sent me tons of photos and updates, kept me posted on how she was eating and doing, and took her on lots of walks and outings. She also absolutely loved spending time with his dog, Kona—they became little best friends by the end of her stay! It was so obvious from every update that Opal felt comfortable, happy, and right at home with him. I honestly think she was a little disappointed to come home 😅 I would absolutely trust Pramukh with her again and highly recommend him!”
“Wonderful sitter who snuggled and loved our sweet Havanese while we were on vacation. Sunny came home happy and healthy from his stay. We recommend and will be rebooking in the future.”
“Allison was such a great sitter! I usually get a little anxious leaving Henry with someone new, but I felt comfortable with her right away. Henry warmed up to her super quickly, which says a lot. She was also a great communicator and sent sweet little updates and lots of photos throughout, which I really appreciated. I’ll definitely use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Debra is SUCH a sweetheart, Poppy loves her, her husband and all her toys/treats! She is a wonderful person to be around, and yes I would love to board with her again!❤️”
“Catherine was so wonderful with Pip! Sent lots of photos and updated us on all their activities. They did plenty of walking and playing! Catherine also knew the perfect times to take Pip outside to avoid crowds and other dogs. Highly recommend Catherine!”
“Laila was responsive, sent videos and pictures, and was super kind and friendly to our pup Miyagi. She was also very accommodating when our flight back was canceled and our dog had to stay with her longer than we originally planned. She was great with him and we would absolutely reach out to her again to watch our dog.”
“We are so thankful to Egor for taking such good care of our dogs! He kept us updated with messages and photos, so we didn’t have to worry about how the dogs were doing while we were gone. The dogs came back happy, healthy, and clearly well looked after. Egor made sure their stay at his home was as comfortable and stress free as possible. We truly appreciate his thoughtful approach and care.”
“Joseph is absolutely AMAZING. He was able to watch my frenchie over the weekend and I felt extremely comfortable and confident in his abilities to take care of Waffles. Joseph was very flexible during the drop-off and pick-up times, sent lots of cute pictures/videos, and was quick to respond to all communication while keeping me up to date. I would highly recommend him and hope that he can watch Waffles again in the future.”

Justine and Zak took wonderful care of our senior dog! They were incredibly responsive and sent regular updates throughout his stay. They even gave him a bath when he needed one, and our dog came home with some extra pep in his step. It was so comforting to know our sweet old pup was so well loved and attended to while we were away. We highly recommend them!
Hannah was wonderful with Lokito! You can immediately tell she’s an experienced and caring dog sitter, especially given her background fostering many dogs over the years. Since we’ve had some less-than-great experiences with sitters in the past, we really appreciated how understanding Hannah was about doing a meet-and-greet beforehand and welcoming us into her home. Her space was very clean and organized, which was especially important to us because Lokito has a habit of picking things up off the ground. Throughout his stay, Hannah sent us plenty of photos and updates, followed all of our instructions, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care. We would absolutely recommend Hannah and would happily leave Lokito with her again!
Thank you, Michelle! I am so grateful for your help. She took wonderful care of my dog. We spoke over the phone quickly after booking. She was very thorough with her questions. She was also very accommodating with the flight disruption that delayed my arrival over a day. Michelle was very communicative regarding the status of my dog. I am very happy that we found her!

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.
91% of sitters in Seattle can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Seattle home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Seattle.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Seattle 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
