“Meredith was fantastic with Delta and gave her all the extra attention my very anxious girl needed during her stay. She understands dog needs, incorporated a slow and safe introduction to the other dogs present, and was quick to respond to any messages. Delta made a few friends, enjoyed playing with the other pups, and was exhausted by the time she was picked up. Will absolutely be boarding with Meredith in the near future.”
“Michelle and Sam are WONDERFUL!! Our dog Cookie is always SO excited to see them and to be with their dogs as well. Loving, wonderful, kind, AMAZING! Thank you both.”
“Sheyna was amazing and I felt comfortable leaving my pup Stoni with her. I received pictures and daily updates. I would recommend Sheyna to anyone who needs a sitter and I will definitely be booking again. Thank you for treating my Stoni like family!”
“My dog seemed to be very happy to spend time with Roger and his family, specially his mother was a stellar in taking care of my dog for 3 days, and I think my dog really love to be around with his little friend, Amazing communication with lots of updates. I will definitely be having Roger sit for me again in the future!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have over 25 years of experience caring for them. I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds, from small companion dogs to German Shepherds and Huskies. I’m currently raising my third Husky, Sirus, who is an incredibly loving, playful, and friendly boy! I’m also a nursing student with a background in emergency medicine, and I have experience caring for dogs with more complex medical needs. My previous Husky had both diabetes and cancer, so I’m very familiar with administering medications, giving injections, monitoring health conditions, and providing extra attention to dogs who need it. I understand that leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, which is why I treat every dog in my care like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup loves playing, cuddling on the couch, or just relaxing, I want them to feel completely comfortable and loved while they’re here. I’ll also send pictures, videos, and updates throughout their stay so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and being well taken care of! I’m currently a nursing student, so a lot of my free time is spent at home studying and hanging out with my Husky, Sirus! Since I’m already home spending time with him, welcoming another furry friend fits perfectly into our routine. I currently offer doggy daycare on Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, along with overnight boarding on Friday and Saturday nights! Whether you need someone to watch your pup while you’re at work, have weekend plans, or just want your dog to enjoy a fun day with a furry friend, I’d love to help! During their stay, your pup will receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and lots of love. I have grassy areas conveniently located right outside my first-floor condo, making outdoor breaks and walks easy throughout the day. I understand how important routines are for our pets, so I’m happy to follow your dog’s regular feeding, medication, and potty schedules to help them feel right at home. My goal is to make every stay feel like a fun little sleepover or playdate rather than being away from home! And of course, I’ll send pictures, videos, and updates throughout their stay so you always know how your fur baby is doing. My availability: * Tuesday: Doggy daycare * Friday: Overnight boarding * Saturday: Doggy daycare and overnight boarding * Sunday: Doggy daycare Drop-off and pickup times can be arranged in advance, and I do require a meet-and-greet with Sirus before accepting new furry guests to ensure everyone is comfortable and gets along! Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! I want every pup who stays with me to feel like they’re right at home, receiving the same love, attention, and care that I give my own dog. I live in a cozy, first-floor condo with my neutered male Husky, Sirus. He’s incredibly loving, playful, and gets along wonderfully with dogs of all breeds and sizes! For everyone’s safety, I do require that visiting dogs be friendly, non-aggressive, and comfortable around other dogs, especially males. I also require a meet-and-greet before their first stay to make sure everyone is a good match. My condo has convenient access to grassy fields both in front of and behind the complex, so there are plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, fresh air, and walks throughout the day. All outdoor activities are supervised, and dogs are always kept on a leash. Inside my home, your pup is treated like family! They’re welcome to cuddle on the couch, relax on the furniture, play with toys, or simply hang out with Sirus and me. I want them to feel comfortable, loved, and secure while you’re away. As a nursing student with a background in emergency medicine, I understand the importance of safety, recognizing changes in health, and responding appropriately when something isn’t right. I also have personal experience caring for dogs with serious medical conditions, including diabetes and cancer. I’m comfortable administering medications and prescribed injections with proper instructions. I follow each pet’s individual feeding schedule, medication routine, and care instructions closely. I’ll also provide regular pictures, videos, and updates throughout their stay so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in loving hands. I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time so every pup receives the individual attention, supervision, and affection they deserve. My goal is to provide a safe, welcoming home where your dog feels like part of our little family!
“Jennifer was such a great host for my doggies. She made my first time with rover worth while and would love to book with her again for any vacations. She’s very experienced and knowledgeable of labs (I’m sure all other dogs). Since my dogs are young they could be a handful and with her experience she was able to do some training during their stay. I highly recommend her to first time rover users or just anyone looking for a skilled host with great professionalism and communication skills.”
“Jessica was available on a very short notice request and I couldn’t have asked any anyone better! Sent pics a few times a day with updates on how our girl was doing. She was very caring and communicative. Would 1000% book with her again!”
“Kathie was amazing with our pampered pooch while we were out of town. She treated her like part if the family. She also sent lots of photos. I would highly recommend her for your pet!”
“Yessica cared for my pup, Cooper, as if he was her own. She sent me updates and photos throughout his stay and he looked very relaxed and happy. I would definitely recommend her as a rover.”
“I cannot express the amount of detail and love that he puts into caring for our dogs. We've done everything you can imagine: dog boarding, PetSmart, friends and family but we've never had such an amazing experience with George and his lovely family. Our dogs were welcomed with such open arms while checking in with us to see how they are doing. The care they received was above and beyond and I couldn't be happier to make him out exclusive dog sitter :)”
“Tamaria was amazing! She was always very response, shared pictures all throughout the day, and ensured that Bucee got his exercise in! She also was hosting other pets so Bucee had tons of fun making new friends.”
“Charla is amazing! She hosted our two pups and provided great care for both of them. She was also super communicative and always quick to respond to any concerns we had. We’ll definitely be reaching out again!”
About: Hi! I am a dog parent to a sweet Pembroke Welsh corgi and I know how important it is to find someone who truly gets your dogs need from daily routine routines to emotional comfort. I value enrichment just as much as exercise from sniff walks and food puzzles to games and new experiences. I make sure dogs get the mental stimulation they need to feel satisfied and balanced. Whether your dog is high energy or prefers a slower pace I’ll taylor their day to the unique needs. I am attentive and committed to treating your pup like one of my own with lots of love gentle structure and constant updates to keep you in the loop. I am available everyday, from 6am to 5pm (sometimes even until 8pm). My Corgi is friendly and is also ready to play (if your dog wishes to). I follow what you indicate and do what’s best for your Pup. I knos how to read dog’s body language and is ready to make them feel loved. I am attentive of what your Pup puts in their mouth, the environment they are walking around, the noises… anything that might cause trouble.
“Joey was so welcoming with Kuma! He sent us pictures everyday to keep us comfortable with where he was staying. I plan on having Kuma cared for by Joey many times!!”
“Linda was absolutely wonderful with our dog. From the moment we booked with her, she was incredibly communicative, kind, and attentive. She sent thoughtful, sweet updates throughout the stay — photos and little messages about the activities our dog was enjoying — which gave us so much peace of mind. What truly stood out is how content and relaxed our dog was when she came home. This has never happened after stays at other facilities, where she would return stressed or unsettled. With Linda, she came back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. We hope that we get to book with you again in the future. Thank you, Linda!”
“I’m not new to Rover, but this was I first using Karla for my two boys (Benny & Teddy). These boys are my babies… they’re special to me. I’m pretty sure most pet owners feel the same way about their fur babies. So it’s important for me to have someone who is caring, attentive, trusting and reliable watch over them while I’m gone… especially when I’ll out of the country. Karla met all of these expectations. My original sitter canceled on me a few days before my trip… which is stressful. Karla was available and willing to do a meet & greet with a short notice. Immediately my guys were comfortable with her which made me feel comfortable. She was great with regular updates and photos of them… it looked like they were on vacation too😁. If I sent a message, she always responded in a timely manner. We will definitely be back.”
“Andrea is so caring, attentive, and professional. I can tell she really cares for my pup, and enjoys spending time with him. Highly recommend working with Andrea!”
“Kiani was a fantastic dog sitter! She took wonderful care of Junior and Quinta and really understood their individual personalities and needs. Junior is a total cuddle bug who loves to snuggle, and Kiani made sure he got plenty of one on one couch time snuggled up. Quinta prefers lounging in her bed nearby or playing with her toys, and Kiani gave Quinta dedicated playtime too. Both dogs enjoyed lots of walks around their beautiful, walkable neighborhood. Kiani followed all the instructions I left and made sure the dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It’s always stressful leaving our pups when we go on vacation, but I’m so glad we found Kiani She made it so much easier knowing they were in such good hands! I would defiently recommend Kiani as a dog sitter. I even had to recommend her to my brother who lives nearby!”

Lashon took excellent care of my dogs- there are three and they have very different personalities. Her family quickly understood the temperaments and neediness of my old ladies and energetic puppy. I will definitely book again! The puppy didn’t want to come home. That is always a great sign!
Nicole was awesome with our dog. He has some behavioral issues, so he’s not an easy dog but Nicole was a pro and he even came back to us with a more chill demeanor. It was so fun she sent us txt and video updates the whole weekend too! we’re really grateful she could watch our doggo. 10/10
We had been struggling to find the right boarder for our anxious dog, and we’re SO glad we found Tobi. We really appreciated that she checked in with updates as he settled in, and before long, he was clearly happy and relaxed! He usually takes a long time to warm up to strangers and isn’t a big snuggler, so it’s a testament to their skill with anxious dogs that I got multiple pics of him snuggling with different people on their big cozy couch. We loved the photo updates, and we had a relaxing trip knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely rebook!
If you’ve ever met a Vizsla, you know they’re not really a dog, they’re a Velcro powered, high octane emotional support missile. So trusting someone to watch ours was basically like handing over a caffeinated toddler with four legs and separation anxiety. And somehow… Kathy nailed it. Our Vizsla came home happy, exercised, emotionally fulfilled, and only mildly dramatic (which is a huge win). We received daily updates and plenty of action shots. Most importantly, they treated our stage-five clinger like family. 10/10. Would absolutely trust Kathy again with our beautiful, needy, rust-colored tornado
Evelyn Was truely professional and communicative while I was away. She provided a very friendly open environment for my Doby to adapt to and it was not rushed. She took the time to help my Doby acclimate at his pace so he was not too afraid. I highly recommend Evelyn to anyone.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
