“Kimberly was great! She was very communicative, making arranging pick up and drop off a breeze. She shared pictures and also reached out to see if Daisy could have watermelon. She loves it! I would be more than happy for Kimberly to watch Daisy again.”
“Jennifer was really kind and upfront about caring for my dogs who have some anxiety. She has such knowledge and skill she could manage them with aplomb and it allows me to feel comfortable leaving them with her.”
“Briana has an awesome and welcoming space for dogs. Our Molly had a very relaxing time. Briana communicated well, updated us often and was very trustworthy. I would definitely recommend her! And Molly would love to stay again :)”
“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!”
“We had both our dogs stay overnight to help them acclimate for a longer vacation we’re taking soon. Amanda did a great job of slowly introducing our dogs to hers and providing us with updates on how our dogs were doing. Looking forward to having her watch our dogs during our vacation.”
“Barbara is great! Outstanding communication from start to finish. And most importantly, our quirky little Molly seemed immediately at home. She can be unpredictable in her eating and eliminating habits, and also needs a daily medication but Barbara was understanding, patient and took it all in stride and I was fully confident that Molly was in good hands and we could enjoy our pet free holiday. I highly recommend her and she will be our first choice to care for Molly.”
“It was our first time using Rover! Sheena was super kind & helpful with the process … she made sure her doggies would get along with Kuzco before we even booked anything! Thankfully, the 3 of them ended up playing well together at the doggie park & it solidified our decision to board him for two weeks with her family :) Kuzco came back to us super healthy and happy from his stay with Sheena! We couldn’t have asked for anything better. It was a great experience & we would definitely use her again!”
“Yoda loved it there before we even left. They have all the toys and even a little coat for him. They took videos of Yoda going on walks and playing. Sherrie and Bill are a lovely couple and did a great job caring for Yoda. They have a closed-in backyard to keep dogs safe. When we go out of town, we hope they're available.”
“Just brought our pups home from a week with Alexis and her family. Got daily pics and video. We feel fortunate for them to be with such a great dog sitter. Happy and healthy and glad to be home but I know Abby and Theo will love coming to stay again. Thanks Alexis.”
“Mila was so sweet to my senior pup Charlie! This was my first time boarding him with anyone. We FaceTimed before hand which reassured me that Charlie was in good hands, she took notes regarding special routine things he needed and while on my trip Mila sent photo updates that put my mind at ease. Charlie was loved and well taken care of, going to Milas made him feel like a part of the family ! We’ve pre booked with her again and I know Charlie is looking forward to it !”
“Thank you so much Isaac. Looked like Emma loved playing with your sweet dogs. She came home happy. We will most definitely your your boarding services again. We appreciated all of your updates and puctures. She certainly took advantage of all your amenities. She rules our house too. Im sad to say ;) Have a great Christmas. Ann and Emma”
“Rene was wonderful- I made a last-minute request and was so lucky that she was available. My dogs clearly had a good time with her because they didn't go absolutely insane when I came to pick them up, like they usually do. They obviously had had a good time! Rene is lovely, easy going, and kind. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Our sitter Jan was marvelously accommodating!! Not only was she welcoming and considerate of all our dogs needs but was a genuinely sweet person. I could not recommend her more. Thank you Rover but mostly Jan!”
“This was our first time with rover and Sara gave us plenty of peace of mind. They were very accommodating and sweet with our little girl. We will definitely have Minnie stay over again when we are in the area”
“Jennifer was wonderful and so understanding that this was only the 2nd time my dog Charlie had been bordered. She kept me updated with photos. I’m sure her guinea pigs are happy Charlie went back home.”
“Our fur goblin Vivi had a fabulous stay with Kara and her pup Doc! Vivi is an energetic gal who loves play and walks, and had a good time with the toy basket at Kara’s place. We appreciated Kara’s updates, photos, and even a video of Vivi and Doc playing together. We felt very comfortable leaving Vivi in Kara’s care.”
“Bridget and Lou were so wonderful boarding my dog. They sent pictures and updates so we knew he was in good hands. He is normally glued to me, but when we went to pick him up he was lingering with them and ran back for one more round of pets before jumping in the car. Great people and obvious dog lovers!”
“If there is a better person to take care of my pups on Rover I will not be finding them because Nicole will always be my first choice. Booked her for a doggy day care session, my dogs came home and went straight to bed exhausted from their day at Nicole's with her two dogs. Booked her again to board my dogs for five days. It was pretty clear my dogs were having the time of their lives from all of the great daily updates received from Nicole. Was super accommodating on pickup and dropoffs, fed the dogs the exact amounts of food I requested, my dogs were well exercised and received way more attention than they would have at home. I thought about it, could not come up with a single negative comment, highly recommended.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Swantown
I had such a wonderful experience having my dog Indy cared for by Kendra! She watched Indy for 7 days at her home and provided excellent care. I really appreciated the daily updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing Indy was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She was attentive, caring, and clearly treated Indy like one of her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! 💯 💯💯

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Swantown home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Swantown.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Swantown sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
