“Anne was very welcoming and accommodating taking care of Teddy. She sent me pictures throughout the day and my pup looked like he was having the best time! Will definitely book with Anne again; she loves animals and it shows!”
“Michelle has been amazing with my very active dog Oreo. I had him in her daycare for two days and my pup is just so happy to see her. She truly goes above and beyond and you know it is coming from a place of love for animals. She sent pics regularly, checks on allergies before giving him treats. Reports on walks, pee poop etc. Will definitely use Michelle again for my dog’s care in the future.”

“My dog developed separation anxiety after our recent move, and he’s not always comfortable being watched by people, but he is so comfortable with Jill and Jacob! He is well cared for and gets really excited to see them when I drop him off now.”
“Erin is absolutely incredible. Within the first ten minutes of meeting, she and my dog (Maya) were best friends. I booked with her during a super hot week and she did a great job at keeping Maya both cool and entertained. Maya had a bit of an upset tummy that week and Erin was on top of everything, keeping me up to date with how Maya was doing. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter to keep Maya company. Will definitely be booking again!”

About: I like to think of myself as a dog whisperer! I grew up with many dogs and helped to train service dogs in high school. I work fully remote from home. I am able to take breaks throughout the day to give all the attention to our furry friends! I love to go exploring on the weekends and would love to adventure with, or pamper, your 4 legged bestie. I am a very responsible caretaker! Pets are family, I would never treat them any other way. Paying attention to little indicators can make a huge impact on relationships with pets. Dogs can tell us so much! I live in an apartment close to multiple parks that I walk to weekly.
“Mandy did great with Fisher! He's an older guy that can take a while to warm up, and he was calm and happy when I picked him up. Mandy was communicative and flexible when my schedule went haywire.”
“Michelle-Anne took great care of my dog. She shared many photos and my dog looked very happy in all of them. My dog injured his leg not too long ago and she made sure to keep monitoring it. Thank you, Michelle-Anne!”
“Sally is very professional and organized. We had nothing to worry about with our dog in her care.”
“Andrea was awesome! We wanted to go to the space needle during our vacation and needed someone for a few hours. Our dog can have separation anxiety and she did such a great job with her! Highly recommend!!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Pranav provided for my senior dog. He went above and beyond—sending regular photo updates that truly put my mind at ease. One of the photos showed my pup smiling from ear to ear, and it was clear he was having the best time at Pranav’s! It’s not always easy to find someone who’s patient and attentive with an older dog, but Pranav exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend him and will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
About: We have experience with dogs of various sizes, personalities, and breeds. We own dogs and also care for other people’s dogs. We will provide your dogs with the same love and attention that we give to our own. We can offer a walking service around the neighborhood or take them to a nearby dog park. We are a family of four (2 humans, 2 dogs), so your dog will never feel lonely. Our dogs are medium-sized, friendly, and love playing with other dogs. Our apartment building features a pet relief area and a dog spa, enabling us to offer bathing services if needed. Additionally, I speak Russian. Please let me know if you have a language preference for communication with both you and your dog. We are available for daycare daily and for boarding on weekends. We are happy to host your dog from after 5pm on Friday until Sunday night or Monday at 8am. We also provide a pick-up and drop-off service for an additional $50 (round trip). We reside in a pet-friendly community, equipped with several pet beds and a crate if necessary for safety. Your pup will be treated as part of our family during their stay. I’m working from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible (in case your pup needs to follow a specific schedule). Your pup will never stay alone :) I live in an apartment complex in SLU, we have a pet relief area on the 40th floor and Denny Park is also located across the street :)

Excellent care of our pup. Really appreciated his flexibility and communication!! Chandy was immediately warm to him and I could tell he had a great time! Will definitely return!!
If you’re ever looking for a dog sitter close to T-Mobile park or Lumen field while you are enjoying a game or concert Aisake F. is your guy! So kind and friendly. My 3 little dogs loved him and his adorable dog. Of course when we dropped off our 3 they were nervous but upon pick up they were happy! Our next trip to Seattle we definitely we be repeat customers💙
Sam took good care of Mochi and shared updates throughout the day. We also did a little meet and greet before the daycare day, she was very friendly and nice to Mochi that made him excited to spend time with her.
Jen was amazing and was extremely flexible with day care for Porter. She took him on a long walk to made sure he was tired after his stay. She sent a lot of updates and photos which was great and I trusted that my dog was in amazing hands!
Sara took good care of Luke and sent me pictures throughout the day. Communication was clear, and I really appreciated her flexibility - from the meet and greet to booking and drop-off & pick up. Luke says thank you :)
Mario was absolutely amazing with my dog, who has pretty severe separation anxiety. From the very beginning, Mario was calm, patient, and incredibly reassuring- not just for my dog, but for me too! He took the time to understand my dog’s needs and went out of his way to make sure he felt comfortable and safe. I received regular updates with messages, and I could see how relaxed and happy my pup was under Mario’s care. When I got bak to pick him up, my dog was calm, well-cared for, and clearly had built a bond with Mario. It’s such a relief to know there’s someone out there I can fully trust with my dog, especially given his anxiety. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Mario again- he’s the best! Thank you so much!😊🙏🥰
Naomi was great with my pup! She cared deeply about making sure her needs were met, she was safe, and the house was looked after. We look forward to booking with Naomi again!
Katie was great!! Eddie needs gentle introduction to new people and dogs and Katie handled everything perfectly. And Sophie is a well socialized dog buddy for E. Recommend!
Theo is awesome once again!! And very flexible and great communications. The pup is now greatly looking forward to spending time with Theo. We will definitely be back!!
Philip made booking super easy and took great care of Bagel! This was our first time doing a daycare service and we'll definitely book with Philip again in the future. I liked the video update of our happy girl that we received during the day and the clear communication. I definitely recommend!
Drew was thankfully able to take care of our two Boston terrier girls last minute. They enjoyed playing with his dogs so much and came home happy and tired. We live nearby and will definitely be reaching out to Drew again 😀
Great experience! We hope to book again. Drop off and pick up were smooth and we were happy that he had a friend, Olive.
Juliana was fantastic! I needed a sitter very last minute and she was very quick to respond and accept my request. She provided videos of Remi playing, made me feel at ease that Remi was enjoying herself. Thank you Juliana!
Easy pickup and drop off. Good area, Auzeen took them to a dog park and for a walk, sent pictures etc and was very responsive for a last minute request. Thanks!
Akinola was friendly and pleasant to communicate with. He sent me pictures of our dog several times throughout the day and told me she was a good girl. I really appreciated having someone I could tell enjoys dogs watch her while we went to the Mariners game.
Haocheng is a reliable and trustworthy dog sitter. She has very good communication and will send updates throughout the day. Thank you Haocheng for taking such good care of Dakota!
This was our 1st time using Rover and we’re a little nervous about leaving our girl with random people. We were glad we had a great experience. Sophie & Tyler were great! They treated our girl like family. Their communication was excellent! I would definitely recommend them for your pups needs.
