1. Alicia M.


“Our younger pup is a bit fearful of new people and can be a challenge in the beginning. Alicia did a great job of dealing with some curveballs Yeti threw her way and kept us informed while we were out of town. I appreciated not having to worry about my two pups over the Christmas holiday because Alicia was commutative, sent photo updates, and was consistent. Thank you again!”


2. Sonnie G.

“Sonnie was an awesome sitter for my recently adopted high-energy reactive pittbull, who needs extra care and accomodations. Sonnie handled challenges that came up really well. She has been an excellent communicator with thorough updates. I think she is someone you can totally trust to take outstanding care your pets!”


3. Yvette S.


“Yvette was a wonderful pet sitter! She stayed with our young Golden Retriever named Rosie for two nights at our place in University Place. Yvette took the time to have a video call and come over to meet Rosie before our weekend away. Right away, it was apparent that Yvette loved dogs and Rosie adored her. Yvette was consistently responsive, provided photos and updates, and easy to trust as house/petsitter. We'll book her again, for sure!”


4. Emili A.
“Emili is absolutely wonderful with animals! I've seen firsthand how much she loves and cares for them. She's incredibly responsible and attentive, always ensuring our own pets are happy and well-looked after. When we're away, I have complete peace of mind knowing she's giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. She's a natural with animals of all kinds, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter or walker.”


5. Parker M.
“Parker is a fantastic pet sitter. He’s extremely thoughtful, communicative and flexible. We’ve used him twice now, and once was when we were out of the country. We can absolutely trust him to take care of our pets and our home.”


6. Megan G.

“Megan did a great job with our dogs annd home and stayed for 5 nights… She’s very good with animals, at least with our fur babies! We would recommend her!”


7. Morgan E.

“Great communication”


8. Kacie V.

“Kacie looked out for our pets at a very last minute and she did not disappoint us while we were gone. I would totally pick her again in the future.”


9. Mollie K.

“Mollie was great with our very high energy lab puppy. Not only was she great with Charlie, but I was a bit nervous and she answered all my questions & asked me follow up questions to ease my nerves. This was the longest we left our puppy with someone and I can’t thank Mollie enough for being patient with her. We will definitely be reaching out to Mollie for future trips! She also took great care of our house while away.”


10. Romy S.


“I’m pretty sure our two babies missed the sitter when we got back 😂 Romy absolutely spoiled them rotten (in the best way) with long walks and plenty of extra treats and bones. They sent so many photos and videos everyday, so after day one I didn’t have to worry about them and could just miss them knowing they were well taken care of. 1000000/10 would book again”


11. Angel T.


“Angel is out go-to person, especially when we need him to stay overnight for house sitting. We are thrilled when he has availability! Our pups adore him. We really appreciate his comprehensive updates with pictures and details about the day. If we have any specific requests/instructions, he always takes care to follow them. Angel is also very respectful of our space. We are thankful to have found a dog sitter who we can trust and who our pups love!”


12. Naira S.

“Naira, is a very personable young lady. She dog sat for us for a week. Our Pepper is an older dog and pretty low maintenance. We did leave Naira all our expectations in writing. Also, we received pictures of them having nice walks during the week, which we enjoyed receiving and that put our mind at ease. Naira left our home clean and in good order. We would definitely recommend her and hope she's available the next time we need someone to watch Pepper.”


13. Hannah K.

“Hannah is great! My dog, Klaus, really liked her and I could tell she liked him too! She came on time and followed all the instructions I left for her. I would not hesitate to call on Hannah again to stay with Klaus!”


14. Norma F.


“Norma was an absolute dream come true for me and my pups. I hav a big young and small older dog, both were taken care of past expectation. They both got plenty of walks appropriate for the each of them, and the house was always picked up and packed away safe for my boys whenever alone. Not a thing was left forgotten for care, and I was blessed with so many cute photos of my babies during the sitting. Norma kept me comfortable and confident with the boys in her care and always made sure to let me know how things were going. I cannot recommend her enough! Your dogs will be so so very happy! :)”


15. Kirsten C.
“Kirsten loves dogs and cats almost more than she loves humans!!! She grew up with dogs most of her life. She has taken care of 2 or 3 families dogs over the years and has spent her own money on toys and treats for them. She spent one semester in grooming school because she loves dogs so much. She spends 2 hours every Friday at a local shelter socializing with cats. Kirsten is a very loyal, loving, caring person who will take the best care of your pet. She has a heart of gold for animals.”


16. Aspen W.

“Excellent stay! Aspen stayed at our place with our two dogs and it was a great experience. Cared for the dogs and our home like it was her own. Communication was thorough and she graciously adjusted when our schedules had a slight change. Arrived home to happy calm dogs which tells me all I need to know! We have already booked our next stay.”


17. Emily O.

“Emily did a wonderful job taking care of our Ranger-Dog. Her communication was excellent, keeping us updated with messages and photos while she stayed in our home.”


18. Diane B.

“Diane took great care of our dogs and was very communicative and friendly!”


19. Laura B.
About: My name is Laura and I have been a Rover user for several years to get care for my two cats. I have had an amazing experience with all of my pet-sitters and would love to offer the same level of care as a pet-sitter myself. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs and would love to meet your pet(s)! I am currently not working and have plenty of free time, especially during the work week to come and care for your pet. I have just started offering services through Rover so I have a lot of availability. I have two cats in the home so am unable to host pets at this time, I will be offering drop-in visits to come and care for your pet in-home but can also bring them out into the community and on walks if that is something you want for your pet.

“Alexis took great care of our three pups and crested gecko. Sent us photos and updates so we were able to enjoy our weekend away knowing they were in good hands.”
