“Helena is such a pro!!! We have 2 large dogs, one of which is reactive. Her calm demeanor and positive reinforcement resulted in a great visit and walk. She was even able to take him on the trails near own home. Highly recommend!”
4. Olivia S.
“When it comes to my animals there is nobody that I trust more than Olivia. She has the biggest heart and is a natural with all the fur babies. She often would watch my cat for months at a time while I traveled and it became a second home for my little Fox. My dog loves her and is always super excited to see her. I trust Olivia with any possible pet emergencies and know that she would always put their best interests first and keep them safe. Olivia's patient and kind personality puts my anxious dog at ease, even with her separation anxiety. It's hard to find someone that you can trust completely and Olivia is a true gem.”
5. Becky D.
“She did an amazing job with our dog! Often went above and beyond (staying longer than required, dealing with an excited, jumping puppy) and was amazing at communication, updates, and pictures. Definitely better pictures than I'm ever able to get of my dog. Highly recommend!”

“When there was a late sick call at work and I had to work 12 hrs without notice, Ari quickly agreed to walk Chewie three times that same day. The other nurses at our hospital day "thank you, Ari"”
7. Vincent B.
About: I have 15+ years of cat and dog care. As comfortable with big boisterous puppies as with gentle old cats. I can take your energetic dog for a run or be a friendly presence for your sleepy one. Plenty of experience giving pills, eye/ear drops, and insulin I'm flexible most days of the week and can often pop in for a quick check/walk/meal during the day. Many days in remote and my schedule is flexible. I'm a field biologist so some weeks I'll be away a couple days at a time, but my schedule is predictable. I'm happy to care for all of your pets in your home, safety and comfort towards your pets first and foremost. I'm a biologist, so you know I love animals
8. Brett L.
“Brett did a great job for me. He was polite and really listened to my pets needs. My dog, cat and fish were well taken care of and he really went the extra mile and sincerely enjoys his position and is very responsible. I will call on him again when I need a sitter and would highly recommend him to anyone I know. Good job Brett!!”

“I highly recommend Courtney as a pet caregiver! She has a heart of gold and gives her pets the utmost care, love, and attention. She can work her magic with my dog...who is not easy to get along with! As a pet mom, she understands the importance of trust. I have no doubt she will go out of her way to demonstrate that pet parents can trust her with their beloved pets. Courtney would be a wonderful addition to the Rover Team and you can absolutely trust her to provide the BEST possible care for any pet entrusted to her!”

About: I have raised two dogs in my lifetime. We created special bonds with each other, I will love them forever. I knew I was a dog person after raising and caring for my first dog, Maddie. Starting at age 8. I'm looking for more pet care experiences to one day learn and become a dog trainer. That is my goal in life. I have many natural gifts pertaining to dog care. Sympathy, compassion, and kindness. I am very respectful of people's properties, and will listen to and follow all your house rules if I come to sit or do a drop in at your house.

We have been lucky to have such a great pet sitter!”
19. Sierra W.
About: "I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am very well trained with it comes to dogs and cats. I can promise you when it comes to your pets there are safe with me. I consider all animal like children to me. I take dogs and cats for potty breaks every 2 - 4 hours and I take them on walks during early morning and late night walks in the summer so the hot weather doesn't bother them too much and so there paws don't burn on the ground. I currently don't work because of some health conditions but that dose not prevent me from taking care of animals. I can babysit dogs or cats from Monday through Friday from 10 am to 5pm at night. I live an a apartment and also I also live near a park that is a 10 minute walk from my apartment. So your animals will get all the exercise and fresh air all that they need. I live in a one bedroom one bath apartment. My apartment is very friendly and safe and I have a camera I live on the west side of Olympia and there is a park 10 minutes away from my apartment. I also keep my apartment safe and clean.
