Dog Boarding in Thornton, WA

About: I’m from the Seattle area and I’ve been with Rover since 2018. In 2020 I got married to Micaiah my husband. When we married we added an additional cat to the family that belonged to him. So we have 4 cats. Before Rover I volunteered at PetsMart with Purrfect pals. One day a week I would help with cleaning, playing, and as a team member I helped cats find a furrrever home. My first cat in my life was when I was 8. I have always enjoyed pets and nature. So I decided to combine walking and dogs. Walks in the park or just around the block. I’m looking to be your new regular dog walker. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pets!! I’m also a very detail and observant person so walks, sittings, and daycare services would also have a description of how your pet is doing. I chart any different behavior or eating habits along with health concerns. Updates with photos would be a priority. I'd also ask for the dog's vet info and emergency contacts. Have a paw-some day! My schedule is flexible. I usually find clients prefer weekday schedule M-F routine for walks. This is my full time job! My time is your time! I’m very safety cautious. I will keep updates and photos on the pet regularly during the day. I also request the pet’s medical information and their vet clinic. I’m pretty flexiable with scheduling. I try my best to fit in the schedule my clients want for their pets. Only days I need off for two hours are Sunday and Thursday. For security and safety I please ask for NO GUNS OR SUBSTANCES in house. I want to feel safe in the environment same goes for your pets. Thanks! I’m making this a full time job. M-F. I’m flexible with the scheduling. I’m open to picking up and dropping off clients dogs. Dogs will have one of us home with them. I have a fenced yard and five cats. I rescued two which are a mom and her kitten. My three cats are fun to spend my day with as well. I have a senior cat that needs daily meds and I try all I can to keep them happy and healthy.

“Elena was great! We could definitely tell that our puppy was happy with her and honestly he probably didn’t want to leave! She sent plenty of photos and videos while we were away and always kept us updated on how he was doing. We will definitely be using Elena again!”

“Mikayla was great! She kept me updated with photos of my dogs during their stay with her and let me know if there were any issues or concerns. She did great with my senior dog who has a lot of trauma in her past and problem solved any issues together. I would definitely recommend Mikayla!”

About: Hi, I’m Brian! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had dogs and cats around the house, and it’s a tradition I’ve proudly continued into adulthood. Sadly, both of my beloved pugs passed away over the last few years. Right now, it's just me and my cat, Vader, so I would absolutely love to welcome a canine (or another feline) presence back into my home! I work at WSU and live a quiet, peaceful life here in Colfax. Because my home is a kid-free environment and I spend a lot of my time here, your pet will get plenty of focused attention, companionship, and love. I understand how hard it is to leave your pets, so I am committed to treating yours like family - providing a safe, comfortable, and fun home away from home. I’d love to chat and see if I’m the perfect fit for your pet! I work at WSU so it's a short commute each day, allowing me to spend more time at home. My weekday evenings are pretty quiet. I sometimes go out on the weekends but would be quite happy staying home if there is pet-sitting to do. I have a large fenced yard. I have a large linoleum dining and kitchen area that can easily be blocked off where messes are easy to clean up. I'm totally fine sharing my bed and furniture with a pet. It's a quiet, kid-free house well suited for even the most nervous dogs.

“Courtney and her family loved my dogs almost as much as I do. Your dogs will be well cared for by Courtney and her family. I actually felt bad about taking my dogs from her kids when I left. They had all bonded during the stay. It was so sweet.”

Shelley J.

“I would give Adrienne and her daughter 1000 stars if I could! They were so incredible from start to finish. They sent me updates on my pup and helped me to feel so at peace while I was out of town. Definitely book with them!”

Alyssa R.

“Ahsoka had a great time with Katia! She got very comfortable and was clearly well taken care of. We received regular and appropriate updates.”

Keisha P.

“Mango was fantastic with my little Boston terrier and made the process so easy! I booed last minute and she was nothing short of amazing!! Will definitely use her services again in the future.”

Paisley S.

“Amany was absolutely incredible! She was able to accommodate us on very short notice, which was a lifesaver. From the moment we dropped off our two dogs, we felt at ease knowing they were in good hands. Amany provided consistent updates throughout the day, including photos and videos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear that our dogs were happy, well-cared for, and having a blast with her! Her attention to detail, love for animals, and excellent communication truly set her apart. We couldn't be happier with the experience, and we highly recommend Amany to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.

About: I've had animals all my life. I'm here to relieve the stress of juggling your job, travel and the love for your companion!🐯🦁 I also have farm animal experience. I am semi empty nester looking for a little more on my "to do" list. I work but can make my own schedule for drop ins or house sitting I'm older then most Rover sitters. Established home and life in Pullman but able to travel and stay in nearby towns. Taking care of your pet is top priority in my home or yours. I'd care for yours as I care for mine. With your terms in mind.

“Esiah was very good at keeping in contact with us before and during our dogs stay. She was very sweet and compassionate when our dog had a hard time adjusting. I would recommend her to anyone seeking boarding for their animal, 100%.”

About: Taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, horses, and hamsters since I was 14. I’m reliable and show up on time. I will always put the animals needs before my own. I’m just moving up to Pullman so my schedule is wide open currently. I will be updating my schedule as life happens and updating my availability. A job will not keep me from checking in on a pet before or after work as needed. It will all depend on what type of home the owners have and if a leash will be necessary. Dog walking will of course have a harness/leash present.

About: I had a Pharaoh hound growing up for 15 years and lost her to cancer 4 years ago. I love going on walks, and I'm looking for some new companions to join me! I just got my bachelors degree in Zoology, and I've always been passionate about working with animals throughout my life. I also have 7 years of experience as a house and pet sitter and about 100 hours of volunteer work at the Spokanimals shelter. My schedule is wide open for the summer while I'm in town! Just reach out and let me know, any day, any time, and I will be there! I will respect the rules you have in place for your pet at your home and at mine. I will take the pups on walks at least once a day and let them go outside to potty every hour or as needed. I am happy to brush hair if you supply the tools. I promise to keep your puppy happy to the best of my abilities!

“Alexis did an amazing job watching my dog for me! She was super flexible and did a great job communicating with me as well as sending a ton of pictures while hosting my dog.”

Andrew L.

“Sophia was amazing! She asked a lot of questions and took plenty of notes to make sure my dogs could maintain as much of their home life as possible. She sent photos and feedback daily. She made my girls feel right at home in her home. She gave them all the cuddles and snuggles. She was very flexible about drop off and pick up.”

About: What can I say, people are crazy but animals just make sense 😂 I've grown up with cats since I was an infant, they're truly the prefect animal, can't change my mind! I also have experience with dogs, some reptiles, assorted rodents including guinea pigs, and fish. Outside of that, I'm a fast learner, not afraid of much, and capable of following instructions. I'd love to meet your fur baby! I work full time, so we will just need to talk and figure out schedules. I can usually make it work. I have a reliable car I have a lot of yard space, most of it not fenced unfortunately but I have multiple runners. I have a 3 bedroom apartment in the bottom of a full sized house, so it's spacious and stays cool in the summer. I have a kennel but use it sparingly. My own dogs get taken to one of several parks every morning to run off energy, as well as car rides and walks around the neighborhood. They live their rams horn filled with yogurt or peanut butter and frozen, for their inside time! I try to keep things stimulating As for care in your home, you tell me! I'll adapt to your needs as best I can :)

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I love all animals and treat them all as if they were my own! I currently do not work-so my schedule is wide open and flexible to take care of all of your pets needs. I am open to walking, dog sitting and more! I have a dog to keep your fur baby company of staying in my home. I do not have a fenced yard but like to go for walks, and in park adventures.

“Mariya was great! She communicated with texts and pic's and info about my dog's stay. She even clipped her nails (which isn't easy to do)! She might be a little more than others, but you can know they're in good hands with Mariya.”

About: I’ve had pets all my life, multiple dogs and cats! I like to walk and love interacting with animals- so this job is a win win! I work full time as a nanny- but need some extra cash for traveling - and have my evenings and weekends wide open for other animal related adventures (dog sitting and such) I ask for detailed descriptions on how to take care of the animals (lists are my favorite) and just follow whatever the owners would prefer when it comes to taking care of their animals!
