About: I may not have professional experience caring for animals, but I’ve always felt a deep connection with them. Whenever I’m around dogs, I feel an instant bond—like we’ve known each other for years. Animals seem to naturally gravitate toward me, and I think they can sense how much I care. I’m patient, gentle, and always eager to learn more about how to give pets the best care. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing with their favorite toy, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and engaged. I treat every pet like they’re my own—with kindness, love, and respect. Even though I’m new to pet sitting, I bring a lot of heart, reliability, and excitement to every opportunity. I’m confident that with time and trust, both pets and their owners will feel comfortable and happy with me I’m currently on summer break and i have nothing to do or planned until august so i hope i make a bit of money until that time so i could be set for the future and my school year I have a Nice big and fenced community park right next to my home, your babies will have the time of their lives in my humble abode, it’s small but it’s full of love and warmth!

“Alex has been our dog walker for a couple months now. He is very attentive and has been so flexible with our ever-changing work schedules. We always appreciate his help and the boys seem worn out after their walks!”


About: I have been lucky enough to grow up in a house full of animals, and all of my favorite childhood memories center around them! We have rescued dogs, the occasional cat, and even cared for horses and competed in a few horse shows! When I was about 10 years old we rescued a pregnant dog. I remember so vividly her having her 2 puppies, unfortunately only one survived. That puppy was my best friend for the last 20 years. She was there for my high school graduation, college graduation, my wedding, and a cross country move. All of that is just to say I know how big of a role pets play in our lives, and how much love and friendship they provide us and they deserve in return! I am not a certified trainer, but would have no problem working with your pets on basic commands during walks or play dates. I am a pretty flexible person and would love to help out where I can, please feel free to ask any questions! I currently work 1-2 nights per week, and I can easily do walks or play dates around that schedule. I am a very flexible and understanding person, if you would like to schedule something specific or have questions feel free to reach out to me and we can see about working it out! I know all dogs have their own personality and may be nervous or scared around new people. Whether we are doing walks, play dates, or both I like to allow some extra time to get to know each other. If it is ok I can bring different toys and treats (some different treats I use with my dogs or if you have specific treats to provide) and then move forward at the pet’s own speed.

About: NOT ACCEPTING WEEKLY/ONGOING WALKS! Hey y’all! We are a mother, daughter pet sitting duo! Sophia was a rover sitter in Texas for about 1 year. She absolutely loved it! Reviews from her old profile are attached in our photos. Irene is new to rover but loves working with animals! She has done casual pet sitting and is excited to expand to the rover platform. Together, we are a great team who are eager to meet your pets! Since there are 2 of us, your pets will get twice the love 💕. We are both experienced with puppies and kittens, as well as senior animals, and are both able to administer medications. We look forward to meeting your animals! Sophia currently works as a ABA Therapist but has availability between appointments to care for your pets. Irene is currently a volunteer for the lake washington schools foundation, and has a flexible schedule to care for your babies. Being timely is very important to us, so we will do our very best to adhere to your set schedule. We promise to treat your home respectfully and your animals like they are our own! We know how hard it is to leave your babies in the care of strangers, but we do everything we can to make sure your babies are happy and comfy. We also send TONS of photos :).

About: I have been taking care of dogs for the last 9 years and have 2 dogs of my own who I have raised since they were 8 weeks old. They are currently 7 years old and 7 months old giving experience with all ages and extreme patience after months of raising the puppy. I work from home and my dogs get a great level of attention as a result of this. I am always available and able to provide frequent walks and stimulation. For local clients I can be available in a pinch due to my flexible work schedule. I have two dogs and can take dogs who do well with other dogs. Assuming they all get along they would get the same treatment as my own dogs. Plenty of walks, at least one long walk a day, lots of play time, and a consistent schedule. House sitting will include regular visits along with extended time spent with your pet during the work day as well. I am always available for walking appointments with my flexible schedule.

About: I’ve spent my life around animals and caring for them has always been second nature to me. From energetic pups to independent cats, I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. I’ve provided care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and sizes—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, administering medication, or just being a calming, familiar presence while their people are away. I prioritize consistency, safety, and lots of love. My goal is always to ensure your pets feel as comfortable and cared for as they do when you’re home. I’m currently working part-time so I’m available, as my work schedule is flexible! Whatever your needs, I’ll try my best to accommodate yours and your animal’s timeline! Secure Home Entry/Exit: I double-check doors, gates, and windows to prevent escapes or accidents, especially with curious cats or excitable dogs. Leash & Harness Checks: Before every walk, I ensure leashes and harnesses are properly fitted and secure.

“Corinne has been awesome! She's flexible and willing to cater to our needs. She sends lots of pictures and updates on any new or unusual behavior during the time shes with Zara. Very nice and have booked multiple times!”


About: I have recently lost our own beloved pets - instead of adding to the family I'd like to help others. I have have had cats, dogs and sugar gliders. (Yes, you read that correctly!). I'm recently retired and looking for ways to help others now that i have a bit more free time. I've had puppies to elderly pets, I love going to walks (especially in the woods, rain or shine). I think the only thing i wouldn't want to interact with are snakes or spiders! :) I am recently retired and I have plenty of time. I do like to travel so a good weeks notice would be nice but understand when emergencies arise. i prefer to watch animals at their own homes - I think it's less stressful on the pet to be in their own familiar space. I love walking around the neighborhoods and also going to Bridal Trails for the mile loop -


“Amy has done a fantastic job walking our dog Parsley. She is communicative, show's up on time, and takes our pup on great walks. I would happily hire her again and recommend her to anyone else who is looking for a reliable dog walker.”

About: From growing up with two very different dogs, to constantly having cats throughout my life, i am extremely well versed in what it takes to take care of the most important family members. I grew up around bigger dogs, and have raised a couple puppies as well, I know how to keep a dog on track for training and even teach them new skills. as a kid I watched all my neighbors pets as well this included dogs, snakes, cats, fish, and even flying squirrels, so i definitely can handle any pet that needs some love. I also have two adopted cats over the last 5 years, one of which has special needs, so if your animal needs a little more help than most I am well versed in giving medications handling the more difficult furry babies. I am a newly graduated college student, since graduation i have been traveling, but now that summer is coming to an end I'm back on the East side almost full time. Im currently applying for part time positions at various companies, but while i wait to figure out what my full time job will beI would love to watch all the pets I can. Im available almost every day of the week starting around 10am. I am usually spending a lot of my time outside, so i'm always down to take your dog with me on a walk or hike. In my experience with pet sitting, I usually come over multiple times a day to feed and let out the dogs, and prepare wet/ raw food for the cats. depending on what the animals behavior is, Im always down to take a dog on a walk or trow the ball in a local park. if you have energetic cats i will play with them until they are tired, but I'm also good at reading cats and can usually tell when they are done playing, or don't want to be bothered. I also change doggie pads and clean litter boxes when i notice that those chores need to be done.

About: I’ve cared for small to medium-sized dogs of all breeds since a small puppy followed me home two years ago, sparking my love for pet care. My friends and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and give extra love and attention to their pets. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits to ensure your furry friend stays happy and healthy. I’m also experienced with cats, thanks to my 8-year-old tuxedo cat, who has taught me all about feline care, from feeding and litter box maintenance to understanding their unique personalities. Whether dogs or cats, your pet will be in caring and capable hands! I work remotely and am flexible, giving me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. I'm available for dog walking and drop-ins on weekdays after 2:00 PM. My home is pet-friendly with an ample, securely fenced yard, perfect for dogs to play. My condo is a clean and safe environment where your pets feel comfortable and secure. While I don’t have dogs, I’m fully prepared to provide your furry friend a loving and attentive experience. Your pet’s safety, well-being, and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll ensure they are cared for in a calm, tidy, and pet-friendly space. In your home, I’m committed to maintaining a safe and clean environment for your pet, following your instructions for feeding, walking, and other care routines. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are always my top priority!

About: As a pet owner myself I know how important it is to feel confident that your sitter will provide excellent care for your best friend(s) while you’re away. I love being able to provide owners peace of mind, and will send daily updates and pictures! For in home dog boarding: I have a miniature schnauzer who gets along with all other dogs! He is always thrilled to have a buddy to join us on walks and outings. If your dog does not get along with others or has special needs, it is possible to keep them separate but please let me know prior to booking. I enjoy taking the dogs for walks or runs in Bridle Trails state park or heading to the off leash dog park! I frequent Jaspers dog park because it is fully fenced, so if your dog does not have great recall he/she will still be safe! For Housesitting: I offer care provided in your home, great for seniors or animals who do not do well in a new environment. *I also offer farm and horse-sitting, provided at your home. I myself have 4 horses and extensive experience with equines and other farm animals. as well as horses I have many years of experience caring for, *Reptiles *Birds *Rabbits *Chickens & Ducks *Goats & Sheep *Cows *Pocket Pets (hamsters, gerbils, ferrets, hedgehogs, etc) YES! I do take male and female dogs who have not been spayed/neutered! If they’re under 1 year old it is covered through my nightly puppy rate. If over 1year old please add an additional $10/night for in-tact males or $10/night for females in heat. I am a student at Seattle University school of Law, my schedule is blocked. Most days I only have to be in class for 2 hours a day. 2x a week I have to be in class for 4hours. I am able to spend the large majority of my time at home, at the park, and on walks! -Louie, my dog will keep your fur babe company while I am in class. (Typically 2-4 hours a day depending on what day of the week) -I have the ability to crate your dog, section off a part of the condo, or provide free range. I have a wide range of crate sizes available. -I have cameras that I can access when I am away from the house so that I can continue to monitor your pup! -I am out of the house for 2-4 hours M-F depending on the day. -My husband comes home for lunch every day and does a mid day check, and walk - if needed!

Sophia & Irene N.
“Hey, ya'll, I'm Sophias twin! She and I used to have a joint Rover account until she moved. Because I worked with her directly, I can say, hands down, she is outstanding at pet caretaking. She always went above and beyond with each pet she and I would watch -- cleaning the house after a visit and, in general, caring for and loving the animal as if it were her own. She is kind, caring, and responsible and, as such, I would recommend her as your sitter as I know she will take the utmost care of your pets :)”

Dominique Y.
“I can’t think of anyone more perfect to care for your pets than Dominique. She has the biggest heart of anyone I know, and her love for animals runs incredibly deep. I had the privilege of watching her care for her senior dog, Maxine, and it was one a beautiful experience to witness. Dominique gave Maxine the life every dog deserves, full of love, adventure, and tenderness. She took her to the beach, on road trips, to watch sunsets, and made every moment special. Despite the extra care Maxine needed, Dom always made her a priority. She was patient and loving. She treats animals like family, and you can trust that your dog or cat will be safe, loved, and genuinely cared for in her hands. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their sitter :)”

We received regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dogs can be a bit particular, but Michelle was incredibly patient, attentive to their routines, and clearly made them feel right at home.

Jess is so great with our critters and home! Our dog and cats always take a few days to warm up to new people and Jess was so patient while they adjusted. Our dog has health issues that require meds and prescription food (and she’s very stubborn with her meals). Our pup always seems to eat well when Jess is there and we can trust they are in good hands. Jess always sends photo updates and summaries of the day and always leaves our home tidy and organized. We feel really lucky to have found Jess!

Ana is the most amazing care provider that I have ever worked with in the year + I have been utilizing dog walking services. She goes above and beyond in the activity and enrichment that she provides to my pup. My dog will sit at the door waiting for her! She is beyond accommodating and caring and is THE provider for me.

Hailey has been absolutely amazing with our 2-year-old Weimaraner puppy over the past two weeks. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly has a great way with dogs—our pup was always excited to see her! We felt totally at ease knowing our high-energy girl was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!

Hope was very communicative and clear, and I really appreciated how good she was with Ares! He's a shy dog, but she was very patient and let him acclimate on his own terms. She has a lot of experience handling reactive dogs, and was able to handle him easily even when confronted with other reactive dogs on their walk. Thank you!

Best pet sitter! We finished another set of walks for July and our usually timid, shy boy is so much friendlier and confident since meeting Shana! Can’t rave enough - lots of photos, thorough notes, and the utmost care on every walk. Shana is our go-to pet sitter and we highly recommend!!
