“Sarah is exceptionally quick at responding and communicating. She is easy to work with and very friendly. Our dog received wonderful care while we were gone. We will leave our dog with her again.”


“Morgan is a wonderful sitter with the sweetest family. She was communicative and happily accommodated my last minute request. My fur-baby was happy and well taken care of during my absence. 10/10 would book again!”


“They were very helpful during our emergency trip, received multiple updates on our pup, she enjoyed her little stay. Will be using them for any further trips, thank you.”


“Rachel did an awesome job with my boys, Parker and Ranger. She had them for a week. She sent me updates and pictures everyday. Went above and beyond when they went on a food strike. We will definitely be returning customers! Thank you Rachel”


“Kimberly was awesome and took excellent care of my dog! She sent lots of pictures and was great at communicating. Definitely would recommend having her watch your pet!”


“Angela and her family are the best! I am so grateful to have found her and I always feel good and safe when I leave my precious pup in her care. She’s worth every cent!”


“Kyla had a wonderful stay with Lexi as a friend and Amy as a caregiver. Amy did an awesome job of reading our dog and anticipating what she needed, or didn't need. Sometimes Kyla will bug you when she is tiered and needs to be told it's bedtime! Anyways, Amy provides a very safe environment for her guest pets to exercise and play without getting into trouble. We will gladly take Kyla back for another visit with them! We hope to see Lexi at our house or theirs over the Summer for a play day visit. Maybe a dog park visit for the two of them?”


“Ashley and her family were great while watching my little dog. They made her feel at home with their own pups and I got lots of updates. They were patient with her when she was being skittish early on and she settled right in. I would definitely ask her to dog sit again!”


“My dog loved spending time over at their place! He got all the attention and naps he needed. They took pictures of him and kept me updated on how he was doing. Their communication kept me updated and they had him ready to go when I picked him up. I will be using them again in the future!”


“Nicole & Cody go above and beyond! Our pup is always excited to see them and has a blast while in their care. They're super responsive and regularly send the cutest photos.”


About: 🐾✨ Welcome to Your Pet’s Second Home! ✨🐾 Hi there! I’m Bri — a stay-at-home mom, Navy spouse, and homeschooling parent. I’m home consistently throughout the day and have created a peaceful rhythm in our home that naturally extends to the animals I care for. I’ve set up a calm, dedicated space just for cats upstairs — no dogs, no stress, just a quiet retreat where your feline friend can relax, recharge, and feel safe. 🐈🌿 I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, and it’s something that’s always come naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of animals, including pets belonging to military members during deployments, and have continued to provide consistent, compassionate care while raising my own dogs. As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I have the time and flexibility to offer personalized attention and a calm, dedicated space just for the animals in my care. Although I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and tending to my own beloved pets, I’m just getting back into pet sitting and newly active on Rover. I’m dedicating this season to offering intentional, loving care — and I’m also working toward expanding my knowledge of animal behavior and earning certifications where I can. 💕 My goal is simple: to offer peace of mind, reliable care, and a second home your pets feel safe returning to — all while supporting my community and doing something I genuinely love.🐈⬛❤️ Your cat’s comfort and routine truly matter to me. While I do step out now and then for errands or local outings, your pet will have a reliable, nurturing presence throughout their stay. I provide regular litter box cleaning, fresh water refills, daily check-ins, and enrichment time like play, brushing, or cozy companionship — whatever helps them feel safe and settled. 🐾🐈⬛🪟 ‼️ Note on Our Home There is a child under 12 in the house, and while he’s incredibly respectful of boundaries and animals, I completely understand if your pet prefers a low-stimulation environment or is not child-friendly. Just let me know — I’m happy to accommodate special needs or set up extra separation if needed. 🐶 A Quick Dog Disclaimer We do have two friendly dogs of our own, but they are never allowed in the cat care space and always remain fully separated to ensure peace of mind and a calm environment for your pet. 🐾 📅 Flexible & Understanding As a Navy family, I understand how fast plans can change. I’m happy to accommodate last-minute bookings if your plans fell through, extended stays, or deployment-related pet care. I genuinely want to help however I can and make things a little easier for you. 🐾📆 🐾 Doggy Daycare 🐾 I offer doggy daycare for all sizes with a focus on calm, low-stimulation care in a home-based setting. Daycare spots are limited so that every dog gets personalized attention, rest time, enrichment, and a peaceful environment throughout the day. Whether your pup needs a quiet place to nap or a companion for light play and check-ins, I’m here to help. 🚶♀️🐕 Dog Walking & Drop-Ins In addition to cat boarding, I offer drop-in visits and dog walking. Whether you’re working late or heading out of town, I can stop by to provide food, water, potty breaks, litter refreshes, and some comforting attention while you’re away. 🐾 Dog Boarding While I am primarily cat-focused, I do consider small-large dogs for boarding. I’ve found this size is easiest to accommodate alongside my own pups, and it allows me to maintain a peaceful space. ‼️Note: Since I only host a few dogs at a time, feel free to message me about availability. 📝 Health & Wellness Note Please let me know in advance if your pet has any medical conditions, sensitivities, or behavioral needs. I ask that all pets arrive healthy, flea-free, and in good condition for everyone’s safety and comfort. 💖🐾 🚫 A Quick Note on Intact Dogs To keep things safe and stress-free for everyone, I do ask that owners let me know if their dog is intact (not spayed or neutered). I don’t accept females in heat, and I may separate intact males depending on their energy and behavior. My own dogs are often kept in their own space, so I can usually accommodate with care—but clear communication upfront is key! 😊 While I may not have a long list of Rover reviews just yet, I bring years of hands-on experience and confidence in my ability to care for animals with consistency, patience, and intuition. I’m always happy to schedule a meet-and-greet so you can feel completely comfortable and at ease before booking. 🐾🐈✨ 🏡 How I Care for Pets in My Home & Yours 💬 Communication is everything! Whether you’re booking a drop-in visit or overnight stay, I always appreciate clear instructions—feel free to leave a written note, send a message through Rover, or both. The more I know about your pet’s routine, quirks, and preferences, the better I can show up for them. 💌🐾 🏡 In my home, I offer a peaceful, private space for cats with daily litter box cleaning, fresh water, quiet time, and enrichment like gentle play, brushing, or window-watching. I maintain a clean, calm environment that adapts to each pet’s needs—especially helpful for senior cats, shy personalities, or kitties on medication. 🚗 For drop-in visits, I stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible. I handle feeding, water changes, litter or potty needs, and any medications or specific tasks. 📸 I always check in with photos and a little note about how your pet is doing to help you feel connected while you’re away. 🐶 Dog walks can be added to your drop-in visit for a small additional charge—just let me know what works best for your pup’s energy and needs. 🤝 Meet-and-greets are always welcome and encouraged for boarding, house sitting, or pets with specific care instructions. It gives us a chance to connect and helps your pet feel more comfortable. ⚠️ If your dog is reactive, needs space from strangers, or requires extra time and attention, please let me know upfront. I’m flexible and understanding—and happy to see if we’re a good fit with the right setup and support. Just let me know what matters most—I’m here to support both you and your fur baby with care that feels personal and reliable💚🐾

“Absolutely amazing, her communication was amazing and she was so friendly and understanding. She consistently sent me pictures and videos of my kitten which helped so much with my nerves about leaving him. I will forever recommend Katie as a pet sitter!”


“Sara and Cannon took great care of my dog for 2 nights while we were away. They were quick to respond and send updates. My dog doesn't like to eat sometimes when he stays at Rovers, and they were able to make him feel comfortable enough to eat. He also can be a little weird about some of others, especially larger ones. But they have a smart separation and introduction system, so my dog warmed up nicely and got along well with all the other dogs and enjoyed playing. My dog really enjoyed snooping around their fenced backyard too! I recommend Sara for sitting your dog!”


“Dana was great !! She sent pictures daily and let us know how Chewy was. He had a great time on doggie vacation. Thanks again Dana !! You and your family are amazing. Chewy is looking forward to his next figure vacation with you all. ❤”


“Angela provides the BEST care for our 2 greyhounds. She sends us frequent updates and adorable pictures. Our girls love her and always have fun during their stays. We never worry about them because we know they are in good hands with Angela.”


“Skyler was amazing with my dog Cowboy! He sent lots of photos and updates. We let our dogs get introduced before I left and his dogs are very sweet and well behaved. Thank you so much!”


“Teri is truly the Dog Whisperer. I will never go elsewhere. Addie loves visiting/staying - which is Addie’s growling at me when it’s time to go home!! Wink!! Adore you, Teri”

Swantown dog parents share their Rover experiences
We have used Bill and Linda multiple times now, and each experience has been fantastic. They consistently provide daily updates, including adorable pictures and videos of our dog, Baby Ruth. It’s clear they genuinely treat her as their own, and Baby Ruth absolutely loves staying with them. Their caring and attentive approach gives us such peace of mind knowing she is in good hands. We highly recommend Bill and Linda to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet-sitters. We will definitely continue to use their services in the future!

If you’re looking for someone that absolutely loves what she does, Heather is your person! Heather did such an amazing job. We have had Heather sit for us before and she was absolutely outstanding, And this time was no different. She gave us updates throughout the day with texting and photos of our fur baby and made sure he had lots of loving, cuddles, and playtime. Her house is warm and inviting and she made sure he felt comfortable and safe. She is so kind and so loving; I cannot recommend her enough. THANK YOU, HEATHER!! I hope we get to see each other soon 💚

Our dog gets so excited when she realizes whats happening, the moment we turn on Sarah's street to drop her off.. its so great to know she's being cared for as one of their own. Very thankful for the peace of mind of knowing she's in capable, caring hands while we're away. Highly recommended by both human & pup :)
