“Lucia is, by far, the best dog sitter we have ever trusted our dog with. She’s incredibly attentive and flexible with our schedule, and our dog loves seeing her every time we drop him off. She is amazing, and we would give her 10 stars if we could! Thank you Lucia!”


“My girl Rizzo LOVES hanging at Alexandria’s house and I enjoy working with her! She sends great pictures and updates, Rizzo gets so excited to go over there so I know she is being well cared for.”


“Jeanette is highly communicative and sent lots of fun videos and pics of our pup while staying. Her home and play environment are perfectly welcoming and relaxing to our giant COVID-baby pup. Thank you for such a great experience!!”


“Jennifer and her fur babies were very welcoming. My little Lupe was a little shy initially but Jennifer helped her feel right at home. This is the first time that Lupe stays somewhere without her brother and I think I was more stressed about it than she was. Jennifer sent me pictures of Lulu having a good time and it immediately calmed me down. Thank you Jennifer!”


“Charlotte had a great day with Lilli and her family! We are thinking she will be in the rotation now for my Charli girl. So many cute pics and I could tell she was loved. I was nervous since it was a first day. But Charlotte was tired when she came home so she must have been played and cuddled. We look forward to spending the week with Lilli and her pups!”


About: I survived teaching first and second grade for over 35 years so I can do anything! I am a new grandma and I’m so excited! I have two sweet pups who love having news friends come over and play. I am very flexible and I am very willing to get the work done with your pup or puppies! I will do whatever it takes to make it work. Although I don’t have a fenced in yard I will make sure they are on a leash if needed when going out to do their business. I love to walk multiple times a day so you can be assured they will get lots of attention and exercise.

“Marvel had a terrific day with Kristina and her pup, Murphy. She provided pictures and videos throughout the day which helped calm my nerves as this was a new family. We will be scheduling more visits !”

“We came to town for the day and didn’t know what to do with our new puppy. Alyson was so helpful and made us feel very comfortable during our first Rover venture! She gave updates and sent pictures so we could just relax and enjoy the day (:”


About: I grew up on a small farm in WA state, caring for lots of different animals - to include dogs and cats! My husband and I are not ready for another dog quite yet, and I’m looking to spend my free time loving on and caring for animals! We are currently free on the weekends, so we are happy to walk, feed, or board your animal so you can enjoy your weekend! We are open to overnight boarding for multiple days/weeks. My husband comes home at lunch daily to feed and play with our pup, so don’t worry about your furry friend being stuck in a cage all day long if you choose to board. We have a large, fenced backyard perfect for running laps and playing! Our dog LOVES other friends and has plenty of energy for playing. We prefer crate trained pups for when we are out of the house or at night time to keep our home clean and free from damage (again- my husband comes home at lunch in the middle of the day to let our pup out and play). But if you have an elderly dog, and/or a VERY well trained dog, we are open to no crates!

About: Hi, I’m Izzy – a teacher on summer break and lifelong animal lover! I grew up with cats and dogs and now have two sweet, friendly pups of my own. I’ve worked at a dog grooming salon, cared for pets over school breaks, and love providing reliable care when pet parents need a helping hand. My flexible summer schedule means your dog gets extra attention, playtime, and personalized care — whether we’re enjoying a peaceful walk, a game of fetch, or a cozy couch cuddle. I also love incorporating mental enrichment activities to help your dog stay happy and stimulated. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer or a mellow homebody, I’ll adapt to their needs and give them all the love they deserve. I’m happy to provide references from other families I've worked with — just ask! I look forward to connecting soon. I work remotely as a teacher and have a ten-week summer break- so I am available during the week and on weekends! I am happy to come to your house for drop in visits or walks. I also do offer doggy daycare in my home for one dog a day. I have two dogs of my own who love to have visitors. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I’ve cared for dogs both in my home and in their own familiar space. I always follow your pet’s routine and preferences to make sure they feel secure. I have two friendly, crate-trained dogs who love making new friends, and my home is pet-safe and well set up for boarding or drop-ins. I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so you feel totally at ease!

About: I grew up with dogs most of my life and have a dog of my own now! I’m an experienced pet sitter and have watched multiple friend’s dogs before as well as my parent’s special needs elderly dachshund/lab mix who needed extra care and attention. I love all dogs and feel like I have a special bond with them! My own dog, Remy, has some separation anxiety so I know how important it is to have a communicative dog sitter you can trust. I work from home and ensure that I have time in my schedule to give my own dog and the dogs I watch the needed attention and exercise. I have a flexible schedule and can take them on multiple walks a day if needed. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I am diligent about taking your dog out and live in a great neighborhood to walk dogs! I don’t crate my dog but I am happy to do it if that is best for your dog. My dog, Remy, is only 8 pounds so I can only accept dogs that do well with smaller dogs. Remy does well with other dogs. He goes to other Rovers who have dogs and goes to day care occasionally. He’s a little shy so it takes a little bit to warm up but he always ends up making a friend.

“Cecilia is very professional, dependable, and trustworthy. She is great with shy and protective dogs. I highly recommend her and will be using her again to help with Jake. Thanks so much Cecilia!”


About: Worked as a vet technician for 3 years and have been around both small and large animals my entire life. I have been trained in cpr and am able to care for elderly dogs to include medication administration. What my guests expect during boarding. 1. One guest at a time. 2. I am home full time. 3. Specialized tailored care. 4. Daily walks 30-45 minutes or two shorter walks. 5. Minor training if requested (leash, obedience, crate) 6. If required, medication administration to include shots, IV, or other. 7. I work from home and am available most hours of the day for babies with separation anxiety. 8. Reliable, safe and trusted care. 9. If senior animals require stretching and/or strength training I can also follow your regimen. 10. Sanitation between each guest and after meal times. I work full time from home, and am available most hours of the day. Only leaving for groceries or chores during guest visits. I have two senior dogs and they are friendly and well behaved, they love making new friends and would be happy to show your friendly calm dog around the yard and the best spots for squirrels. I also have a small young cat, who is a confident member of the pack even with a 100 lb brother. He is playful, doesn't scratch, and has a lot of zoomies. What to expect during your pets stay or walk, we will follow your pets routine as closely as possible. In the morning or afternoon we will go for a 30-45 minute walk, or we can break it up into shorter walks if your baby needs less strenuous walks. I have a dedicated doggie dig zone in the fenced back yard my Dogs love, they would be happy to show your dog the ropes. I believe if you give pets the tools and means to be themselves they are ultimately happier. I can let good dogs out unaccompanied for potty breaks. We do lots of lounging and play time when the mood strikes. When the weather is nice we might work on the deck and enjoy outside time together. I have a fenced yard and have never experienced an animal injury in my home. On walks I ensure the animal is safe and protected from hazards. All dogs remain leashed and shielded from triggers, hazardous or other disturbances during walks. The yard is clean and safe of materials that could cause harm. I would love to learn your dogs triggers, for instance are they squirrel crazy, are skateboarders scary?

About: Before I became a firefighter I was a vet tech for 6 years. I have been caring for small and large breed animals for over 15 years. I have Experience with aggressive animals as well. The best part about being I the fire service is that we get our schedules a year out so If you have future vacation plans I’ll be able to let you know my availability asap! If your fur baby needs extra snuggles.. I’m here for it! Play time? Just let me know their toy of choice and let’s burn Off some of that energy!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and I miss having dogs! I openly welcome any opportunity to hang out with them. As a cat mom I don’t just drop in, I make sure kitties get some stimulation and of course many, many pets! I’m currently taking a break from work so I’m very available any day of the week and any time (with exception of the occasional holiday where I might be out of town :P) We have a large, fenced backyard that our kitties absolutely love. Any attempt to escape has been squashed and all possible escape routes have been covered. We don’t have any kids so we have space inside for any pets to snuggle inside comfortably.

“Jacki was amazing with my puppy! She is very flexible and accommodating. My puppy is not fully potty trained or crate trained yet and it was difficult to find someone to take him. Jacki was a lifesaver! She was the perfect fit for us. Highly recommend.”
