“If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would. Megan went above and beyond for our pups and we are so grateful to her for showering our pups with love while we were away. Great communication, left the house spotless, and sent pictures every day. We will definitely contact her again for any future needs.”

“Yvette was amazing with Penelope! Penelope is 16 and she can be picky with people, and she loved Yvette. Yvette was kind and gentle with her. We will be having Yvette come again!”

“Lisa was great! She showed up on time, was quick to respond, and took great care of our dogs. I think they were disappointed when we came home and not Lisa as they were looking all over for her.”

“Ryen was great! Loved the communication and I felt like I could really trust that my pets were being well taken care of - there really is nothing better than that kind of peace of mind.”

“Michael was calm and kind with our sensitive dog. He gained her trust quickly and took good care of her. Michael left our house clean. We look forward to having him stay on our next trip.”

“Hannah is great! We love her! She stayed with my pup during the snow storm with NO power in the house. She cuddled with my girl and kept them both warm through the night with no complaints! She is a real trooper🩵”

“Brooklyn was our first Rover experience, she did a meet and greet in advance with our house and pets. A month later, Brooklyn bonded with our brood during the first day, sent lots of pictures and updates during our trip. She was very thorough with her caretaking and left our home exactly as she found it. I would highly recommend Brooklyn for cats and dogs (oh and she fed the hummingbirds for us too)!”

“Allen was great with our pets. We have two dogs more than 100 pounds each, a dog about 30 pounds and a cat. Allen gave us updates during the trip. The animals were all happy when we got home. Allen is very good with animals and our pets accepted her quickly. We would have her take care of them again, Doug Smith”

“Stephanie took wonderful care of our older German shepherd. She adjusted her support as my dog needed it and made sure she was cared for. I highly recommend Stephanie.”

“They crushed it! Our three cats and dog were so over and cared for while we were out of town. They were us super responsive and a treat to have in our home. Will absolutely book again in the future.”

“Alicia is absolutely amazing!! We just got back from a trip and I was nervous to leave our dogs for a long time, but she took such good care of them and made sure everything at our house ran smoothly while we were away. We are so thankful to have found her and all the love and care she gave to our boys. We felt such peace of mind and were able to really enjoy our vacation knowing that the dogs were in good hands. I will definitely be reaching out again for future trips! Thank you so much Alicia, you are greatly appreciated!!”

“Elizabeth was the perfect companion for my dog while I was away for the weekend. She kept me well updated, asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s routines, and left the house decidedly better than she found it at the end of her pet sitting stay. She went truly above and beyond, and I came home to a happy, relaxed dog!”

“Katey was amazing. She was very communicative and attuned to my pets needs and personalities. She was reliable and I came home to happy pets. I would definitely use her again!!”

“Amber was a wonderful sitter! She stayed with our two westie boys for a weekend. We got updates and great photos so we know that they were happy and well cared for while we were away.”

“SHE IS THE BEST. Our dogs were truly so well taken care of. Khaythlen would take our dogs on daily adventures across Tacoma parks. We received so many photos and videos throughout the day, which we absolutely loved. Knowing our dogs were constantly in great care is such a relief. Khaythlen is extremely professional; her communication was fantastic, and her passion for her work is very clear. Would highly recommend her.”

Julia was fantastic. She housesat for my two dogs, one of which is senior. She was very open about the times that she couldn’t be at my house so that I could plan to be sure my dogs weren’t alone for too long. I got lots of great pictures, and I can tell that my dogs were not too stressed by our absence. Top tier sitter!! Thank you, Julia!!!

Yvette was wonderful with our three dogs. She was able to stay with them last minute and even dealt with our internet going out the day she was watching them. She gave us updates, photos and gave our pups their trazodine to help them stay calm with the fireworks

Me and my wife could not be any happier with the service that Megan provided. We've got a mixed house of 5 animals some of which have special needs, and she did an absolutely amazing job. We got pictures and communication every single day. Which is exactly what we requested. All the animals loved her, even the more skittish ones. If you need somebody to watch your animals and home, you could not pick a better person. I honestly can't say enough nice things about her. She's worth every penny.

We had a great experience! They took wonderful care of our dog, Myles, and our home while we were away. Communication was excellent, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing everything was in good hands. We came home to a happy pup. We’d happily have them stay again and highly recommend them!

Elizabeth was the perfect companion for my dog while I was away for the weekend. She kept me well updated, asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s routines, and left the house decidedly better than she found it at the end of her pet sitting stay. She went truly above and beyond, and I came home to a happy, relaxed dog!

Sarah was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover (and my first time using a pet sitter who wasn’t a coworker), so I was a little nervous, but she made the whole experience easy and stress-free. She was patient with all my questions and even shared some helpful tips for future pet-sitting needs. I came home to a very happy dog and a very content cat, and I really appreciated the daily updates and photos. The biggest surprise was my shy cat—he usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but he became comfortable with Sarah so quickly! I would absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, especially for a weekend away.

I just had the best experience with our dogs care taker! She visited twice and took notes as I explained his routine. She went beyond just watching Toby...she played with him. She feed him his food on time. She was kind and had a compassion for animals. I would book her again! Thank you for caring for our little boy!

Ashley was amazing, my kitten absolutely adore her. Unfortunately my kitten developed an issue during our trip but Ashley caught it immediately, got her to the vet that day and sat with her there until midnight. Ashley was incredible and I will definitely be rebooking with her.
Payton was great. We had to schedule only a couple of days ahead of time and she was willing to accommodate us and came out next evening for a meet & greet with our menagerie. The dogs took to her instantly - which is not common for our husky in particular. Everything went well the day of her stay with our pets and everyone was happy. We’d happily recommend Payton!

Came home to 2 happy pups. They obviously had a grand time with Brooklyn and my house looked perfect. Brooklyn was great at sending pictures and updates while I was away. I had no concerns about my beloved dogs or my home. Can't wait to plan another trip so they can spend time with Brooklyn. The pups love when Brooklyn stays here even if they miss me.

I highly recommend Alexandria for all your pet sitting needs. She was absolutely amazing and made our trip stress free for many reasons. Upon meeting our dogs for the first time you could tell she was an animal person, completely comfortable getting on their level and letting them sniff it out for a bit. One of our dogs is very nervous around new people but he was even warmed up to her wagging his tail by the end of her visit. Things felt really good to move forward. She arrived promptly every time we had scheduled and had great communication from the start. The updates we got were warm, caring and fun! She included pictures and was great about any special requests we made. She made a point to keep our house very clean and even washed the sheets before leaving. We found our house exactly how we left it and some very happy dogs upon returning. Truly a game changer to have someone like her to be part of our team with travel planning. We are so grateful she was available for us.
