“Such great pics and communication. We really appreciated being able to drop our pup off early and for the park meet up ahead of time. Thank you so much!!!”

About: I have a variety of experience house, dog, and cat sitting for animals of all ages, and many with medical needs. I am personable and punctual, and have a very flexible day-to-day schedule and love to meet new pets! Open for short notice bookings! I work fully remotely, and so have a very flexible daily schedule, into which some pet time fits great. I have plenty of free time on a weekly basis for unique needs and timing. I have extensive experience pet sitting at client's homes, including overnight. I think caring for pets on their home turf is a great way to get to know them and provide enrichment and fun times!
About: Growing up with different kinds of pets(dogs, cats,birds,turtles,goldfish,rabbits,hamsters…) throughout 30 years of my life, I can’t imagine a minute without pets.And that’s the reason why I started my career as a pet groomer 13 years ago. I am experienced in taking care of all breeds of dogs and cats,as well as other pets.Now I am a ‘mom’ of a 5 year-old dachshund and a 4 year-old Frenchie,I just can’t love them more and am so looking forward to meeting your fur kids! I just moved in Seattle so I am available almost everyday!Feel free to contact me if you have any questions and I will be glad to hear from you.Look forward to meeting your fur kiddos soon! I’m available almost everyday since I don’t go to work. I spend most of my time with my pets at home so as well as your pets! I live in an apartment with a fenced yard. I have two friendly pups that will be your fur baby’s company .If your pet is shy I can leave a quiet space for her!
“Yufang took such great care of Taco! Her home is well set up for dog care — safe, clean, and comfortable. Taco got plenty of playtime, attention, and belly rubs, and came home happy and relaxed. I really appreciated all the pics and video.”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have spent decades caring for all kinds of pets. I’m both a cat and dog person at heart, and today I’m happily ruled by my Mini Schnauzer, Blue, who rarely lets me out of his sight. Over the years I’ve cared for pets at every stage of life, from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors. Animal care has always been second nature to me, I bring patience, experience, and genuine love to every furry friend I look after. I"m currently taking a break from the 9-5, available to walk your pup or check in on your kitties with great flexibility if I am in town. I have a completely fenced yard if we are doing day care, and companion pup Blue to keep your dog company. Calm mellow house for those anxious pups who like quiet.

About: Hi! I’m Samira, and I provide a safe, loving, and active home for dogs while their owners are away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so your pup gets plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. They’ll go on 2–3 walks a day, and I’ll send you plenty of photos and updates! We have a large fenced outdoor area, and daily walks, playtime, and exercise are part of our routine. I have a sweet 3-year-old Australian Shepherd named Sailor, who I’ve had since he was a puppy. He loves other dogs and people and is always excited to have a new friend around! I also have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks and playing fetch or prefers lounging on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while you’re away. I have a very flexible work schedule during the week, which allows me to provide frequent dog walks and potty breaks. I also currently have an active dog, so caring for another animal is easy for me since I already follow a consistent routine with him. I follow the instructions you leave me and take that seriously. Reactive dogs are not a good match for me, I’m so sorry, and they must get along with my dog. Let’s link up and have the pups meet and go over your dog needs!

“Darlayna and her boyfirend were awesome and able to host my pup on short notice while I went snowboarding! My dog came home sleepy and happy and was even given a bath and had her blankets washed after she dug up a hole in their yard (oops!). I really appreciated how flexible, communicative and understanding they both were. Thanks again :)”

“Felix was lovely to work with and took great care of our dog Reign! We received regular updates, photos, and videos and felt comfortable with Reign’s introduction and play time with Felix’s dog, Mabel. We definitely hope to work with Felix again in the future and would highly recommend his care!”

“Erica was amazing! She was so kind and attentive to my puppy, Druid, and she was also very understanding and flexible with my somewhat fluid schedule. Druid came home happy and exhausted each night. I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Bubbles seemed to have a fun evening with Jun. Just as important, Jun seemed to enjoy Bubbles! Jun was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. He even sent Bubbles home with a new toy.🙂”

“Eric has been phenomenal with Lucy. I enjoy his photo and video updates throughout the day. He is very proactive about making sure she is comfortable and detailed oriented towards the food and potty breaks.”

“We absolutely LOVED our time with Cheryl. She was so attentive to all of Millie’s needs and truly went above and beyond. She’s experienced, kind, reliable, and even spent time training Millie! We would definitely recommend her services and will be booking again.”

“My pup, Gemma, loves Ling and is always happy to go to daycare. She is always happy and tired when I pick her up. <3 Thanks for dependable daycare for my girl.”

“Wonderful experience! My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable during her time with Margot. Communication was great, and I really appreciated the care and attention. I've already booked again! Highly recommend!”

About: As a young professional in a big city who is living without a pet for the first time in her life, I have greatly missed being around furry friends. Being a Rover allows me to spend quality time with your pets while also providing them with a fun and engaging experience rather than being cooped up inside all day. I work hybrid (3 days in the office and 2 days at home). However, the 3 days I’m in office (Tues - Thurs), I usually am home by 2/3pm. Because of this work schedule I’m available for pet care everyday past 3pm and some days the entire day. I live in an apartment where pets are free to roam with a large dog park. I also live close to the Katy trail and love long walks, so I am easily able to take pets outside and on walks.
“Laura, helped us out with a last minute request to watch Zelda. She was amazing from communication to accommodating us last minute and taking such great care of Zelda. So happy to have found her and we will be back.”

About: I grew up with pets, from large to small. My sibling and friends always rely on me fostering their dogs and cats. I work from home and won’t leave your pets alone. My husband and I work full time from home, so your pets will always be attended to. They will pretty much hang out with us while we go about our day. My husband starts walking all of the dogs at around 8am. I will open my fenced yard at midday for a midday pee break. My husband will come back at around 6:30pm to give all of the dogs another walk. We usually feed the dogs their morning and evening meals after they come back from their walks. We will open the yard again before bed for a late night pee break.

Erica gave us the confidence to leave Mookie for the afternoon so we could go enjoy a baseball game. He is with us 100% of the time so it was a big deal to have him with a sitter. Communication was excellent, as we received updates and pics throughout the day. Her place of residence was perfect for the pups. This was an all-around positive experience. We are grateful. Thanks Erica!

Kathryn was great with my dog Zeppelin. Zeppelin can be a little dramatic and anxious when being dropped off but Kathryn took him out for a walk to keep him busy and helped him settle in for his stay. She shared photos and was easy to communicate with, I'll definitely be rebooking with her for future stays!

Darlayna was really terrific. Clearly knowledgeable about dogs and also clearly loves dogs. Sammie had a great time! He played with the other dogs, met a new favorite friend, and came home exhausted. Huge thank you to Darlayna and her partner for the care and attention for our sweet boy Sammie.
