“Kris was so helpful! All questions I asked were answered promptly and clearly, and while Aniol my nearly two year old dog stayed at Kris's family home, he seemed to have a safe and comfortable experience! I was so grateful for updates in words and pictures! We will certainly bring Aniol to Kris's again.”
“Lenore took the absolute best care one could hope for of my German Shepherd, Maggie. Over the course of the weekend my plans changed, and Lenore was exceptionally flexible. I was able to enjoy my weekend away, completely assured that Maggie was in truly capable hands and cared for by a compassionate heart. Maggie and Lenore‘s dog Rook also got along famously. It’s not just a relief. I have finally found Maggie‘s home away from home.”
“It's been quite a while since we left our little boy with anyone other than family. We were a bit nervous initially how he would do with a bew peraon. We were very pleased with the care shown by Lisa during his stay. She was very atte tive to his needs and sent us lots of updates and pictures about how he was doing which helped ease our minds. We definitely recommend using Lisa if you need a Rover for your pooch.”
“Susan did a great job taking care of Pocket, and ensuring her needs were met. Her communication was great, and she sent me a few pictures and updates even though Pocket only stayed for one night.”
“Adrienne was communicative and transparent with some anxiety our dog was experiencing, and was flexibile and willing to go out of her way to accomodate her. She sent regular videos and pictures, letting us know our dog was happy and busy while we were out of town. Would recommend 100%!”
“Michelle has been an exceptional sitter for our standard poodle. He enjoys daily park visits, swimming and lots of cuddles. It’s definitely a treat when our baby gets to stay with Michelle. Michelle is the kindest caretaker we have come across. She sends many pictures and videos to assure you that your baby is happy. We are return clients and happy for her services. She is reliable and flexible when emergencies arise. Thank you Michelle, you’re the BEST!!!”
“My dog Oly is a sketchy dog but she was happy under Chelsea's care. She had some playmate, it felt like I was dropping my child off at the daycare. Ready to play! Chelsea clipped Oly's nail for me too. Thanks for the extra attention.”
“Holly was amazing with our Dozer, a bernedoodle. We got many pictures while on our overnight trip. Dozer is a cuddler and she provided lots of cuddle time. I would highly recommend Holly. I especially appreciated her safely fenced back yard. Looking forward to Dozer spending time with Holly again.”
“Jennifer took great care of our family member Blue. (As with some human family members, our canine family member can be a handful.). Jennifer worked with our requests and Blue’s nuances/personality. Couldn’t be more pleased that we found Jennifer and were fortunate to have Blue hang out in a great environment, with customized attention. Five stars.”
“This is our first time dropping our dog off to stay somewhere overnight. Dolly put all our nervousness to rest. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. It was evident from the videos and pictures she sent that our dog was having a great time! She got lots of exercise and play time, and we would gladly trust Dolly with her again. Our dog was not sure she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up!”

“Laura was communicative and reliable in preparation and during our pup’s care. Felt she went above and beyond to ensure our dog was happy and well cared for, from pickup/drop off offerings to navigating our holiday travel/availability. Would recommend her!”
“Shannon was GREAT! She was kind, and great communication. Took great care of our dog. She sent so many pics and updates. You can tell she’s a huge dog lover, our dog was immediately attached to her. Will definitely ask her to watch our doggo again, thanks shannon 😀”
“Timber enjoyed his week with Kelsey. We appreciated the fenced yard and picture updates of Timber playing and having fun. Timber seemed calm and settled when we picked him up. We will definitely book with him again!”
“I have to be honest, I was hesitant to leave my two best friends with a complete stranger. Addison didn’t feel like a stranger within 5 seconds of meeting him in person. Him and his family took such great care of my boys, and put my mind completely at ease while I was out of town for Christmas. Daily pictures and check-ins were sent to me unprompted, which I could not have been more appreciative of. Rover, I’m not sure if you read these reviews, but you have a gem in your hands with Addison. I will 100% be using Addison’s services in the future. Great guy, great family, and a great disposition around dogs.”
“Sophia C. took great care of our doodle pup, Earl. Really appreciate her care during some hot weather. Sophia sent pictures of some of the outings, which we loved. Good communication on drop off and pick up too”
“Michela was great! She took care of Murphy as if he was her own. She sent me a photo or video each day and gave my updates. I would definitely us her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter.”

“Azure was absolutely amazing with our cat! She arrived each day and took great care of our fluffy boy. Azure gave updated messages, pictures and videos and went above and beyond with everything! We are very grateful and will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Camille is one of the only pet sitters I've found who can consistently get my cat to play and be comfortable while she is pet sitting. She always considers my cat's feelings and doesn't try to force anything. She always supplies great photos, and she is willing to do extra things like a video call when I start to miss my cat. Camille is definitely one of my favorite pet sitters, and you'll be glad you booked with her.”
“Sophia was very attentive to the needs of my anxious and senior pups. She is great with communication, in time visits and sharing updates with photos. I highly recommend Sophia. Your pets will be in great hands!”

“Emily is amazing! She took wonderful care of our 2 cats while we were away for over a week. They both remained happy and healthy because of her care. She is honest, trustworthy, and sent us pics daily of our babies which we found both comforting and hilarious. We definitely found our person for cat watching and dog sitting!”
“Just prior to leaving on our trip, one of our kitties had to get a couple staples to close up a wound. Maddy provided above-and-beyond care for our ailing cat which allowed us to enjoy are vacation without worrying to much.”
“Skylar was great with our elderly cat Lucky! Lucky usually hides from anyone who isn’t family, but she let Skylar take her picture and even accepted Nulo Treat from her. Skylar was flexible as our schedule changed a little and even helped us navigate the Rover app. I highly recommend her.”
“Madelyne went above and beyond taking care of my cat. She exceeded my expectations, as well as sent me daily text messages, videos, and pictures of my precious Julia. 10 out of 10 stars for sure. I highly recommend her if you want your pet more than well taken care of. ❤️❤️I’ll definitely use her again.”
“Anna was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover for our one cat and it was an easy going experience. Anna’s prompt updates each day with photos were very reassuring, plus, she even accommodated our cats quirky preferences! Anna provides great photos for updates. I would hire Anna anytime I need Rover again.”
“Aiden did an excellent job of taking care of our cat Wayne! Wayne warmed right up to Aiden and came out for pets and to play each visit. We will definitely be booking him for petsitting again.”
“Lia always takes such good care of our cat, Whisk! Whether she’s watching her for one day or one week, Whisk is always excited to see Lia stop by. She cares about Whisk’s routines and likes and dislikes. So trustworthy and sweet with our cat!”
“Madison was very responsive and sent me photos and updates every day! Yuki (my cat) took an immediate liking to her and it was nice knowing he wasn’t alone while I was gone as he’s getting very old! It was also very nice to get home from a trip to a still clean apartment and not have to immediately scoop the litterbox. Would def book her services again and recommend them!”
“Gabrielle says she will "treat your pet like family." She certainly does! She gave our little dog plenty of attention and care, including just hanging out with her during the visits. We highly recommend Gabrielle as a pet sitter, and she also took care of some other chores and made sure our Gekko had water, etc.”
“I had a great experience with Juliana! She stepped in on short notice and was incredibly communicative with setting up her checking in on my pup! She sent photos and went above and beyond to look after my dog! Highly recommend!”
“Aubrey went way above and beyond to manage some separation anxiety our cat was having and it really made a difference in our cat’s behavior when we got home. She is also incredibly flexible with timing & communication which we sincerely appreciate.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Bellingham
“Kris is so wonderful! I had a very last minute change of plans and she was able to host my pup the next morning. 3 acres of fenced yard is just heaven for dogs and I felt so comfortable leaving my pup there! Their little Rosie and my pup Freyja played so much and I got to take home a veryyyyyy exhausted puppy after a long day of work. I will DEFINITELY be going back.”
About: Hello! My name is Melina and we have a 4-year old Vizsla, Rasco, who loves to sleep, play and follow us on adventures. Your pup will be treated as one of ours, with lots of play time, attention and cuddles. If you have a high-energy dog, he'll fit right in as well, as I go on longer hikes every day with Rasco. In the winter we often cross country ski and in the summer we bike, hike, go to lakes and anything else that's fun! We've got tons of dog toys and dog beds available. Pets are allowed on furniture, and we don't have/use crates as I will mostly be home and around. If you would like to bring your own crate, that is totally fine as well! We have a fenced in yard with a doggie door too, so they have space to play outside as well when we're not out on a walk or a hike. I am happy to answer other questions you may have, just let me know! I currently am taking time off work and have unlimited availability when in town. I am very flexible and open for new bookings and I would love to help care for your pets going into this spring! I will be going to hikes, walks and other adventures depending on needs. We have a fenced backyard and a doggie door, so dogs are always able to get outside anytime. I will usually be home during the day with the dogs, but if I need to run any errands, I will not be out for more than 2 hours.
“Holly and her family took such great care of our dog, Dottie. I couldn't be happier with the process - from the first message to the meet & greet to the doggy day care date. Communication was clear and easy, and I felt that safety and care were well prioritized. Having that reassurance that your dog is in good hands is honestly priceless. The fact she had a great time with Archie is the cherry on top. Dottie is already passed out sleeping (on the couch - sorry!) from all the fun she had. Will definitely book again. Also thank you for all the photos during the visit! They were very comforting for this anxious dog mom.”
“My dog had a wonderful time with Addison! He was friendly and communicative during pickup, drop off, and during care. When I picked up I could tell Puck had a wonderful time and Addison shared fun stories about his day. I'm planning to use him as a regular sitter for my pup!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was a kid, and to this day, I'm the go-to pet sitter in my family. I have a small dog who’s 4 years old and is very friendly with other dogs, cats, kids, and more. I’ve had him since he was a puppy and personally potty trained him, so I have plenty of experience with puppies. While I haven’t personally cared for a senior dog yet I have lots of free time and am confident I can give any senior dog with the care he or she needs. I'm currently doing some online classes, and I'm unemployed because I'm new to the Bellingham area so I have a bunch of free time to spend with your dogs. I live in an apartment so | don't have a yard for your pup to play in but I'll take your dog on walks very often and I personally take my dog to the dog park very regularly and would love to take yours too if you'd like.
“I had a fantastic experience with Alex as Rune’s dog sitter. Rune had a great time playing with her dogs, and she has a lovely space that’s perfect for hosting. Alex was extremely responsive, communicative, and took great photos throughout. Overall, I felt very reassured and happy having Rune stay with her.”
“Morgan was simply the best! We couldn’t have asked for a more caring, communicative and flexible first Rover sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable having Henry stay with her and her adorable dog Baby. She sent frequent pictures of their activities and ensured Henry got exercise, rest, healthy snacks and attention. We were only visiting Bellingham but wish she lived in our town - we would have her hang with Henry all the time! Cannot recommend enough. Thank you Morgan!”
“Avielle was easy to communicate with and her dog Toby is super friendly and immediately went into play mode with Sprocket. She kept me updated with pictures and text throughout the day and when we picked up Sprocket we was all tuckered out from playing all day. Thanks Avielle, would happily have you watch him again!”
“alexis is always awesome! she’s super flexible with last minute requests, and she has a nice yard for the dogs to run around in! we also like that there’s always other dogs there so atlas gets to socialize. he’s looking forward to coming back!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, and have had experience watching friends and family dogs of all kinds. I will do everything to make sure your dog feels at home during their stay and gets all the love and exercise they desire. I work from home with flexible hours. I will be able to take your dog out and for walks as often as needed. Our dog Stanley goes on at least 3 walks a day as well as spends lots of time in our yard playing with toys. I will make my schedule fit into your dogs current routine. I have a fenced in yard that does not have any gaps throughout. Our house is very dog friendly as we like to make sure our dog lives his best life. Our dog will make sure to keep any dog guests feel at ease and to play whenever/if they want!
“Jennifer was great! Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Coast had such a great time hanging out with other dogs and had plenty of room to run and play”
About: Hello there, I’m Audrey. I’m a lifelong animal lover who is dedicated to being a compassionate and informed pet companion. I’ve been caring for pets since I was a kid, starting with my family’s siamese cat and border collie rescue. Since then, I’ve been a primary caregiver for two rescue mutts and a companion to the many pets of my friends and family. I’m passionate about learning to understand animal emotions and behavior in order to more effectively care for pets. My goal is to build a relationship that is based on compassion, understanding, and trust. My schedule is highly flexible. I work remotely as a freelance writer, which allows me to easily adapt to pets’ routines. I keep my Rover schedule current, so it accurately reflects my availability. It warms my heart that I get to help the animals I work with stay home where they feel comfortable and stick to the routines they are used to.
“Gabriel took Lucy to the lake, introduced her to other dogs, and she didn't want to leave when I picked her up. He accommodated my short notice request and I'm so grateful that Lucy had somewhere safe to go while I headed to work.”
“Karrin is great, super great communication on the app and in person. She sent pictures, although I didn’t get them because I didn’t have WiFi on the whale watching excursion most of the time, until later but she sent me a lot of them for the short amount of time they were with her. She took great care of them. They are looking forward to going back to see her and her puppy tomorrow and spending the night with them!!!”

For safety- I make sure I have my phone on me at all times. I. communicate with owner if anything seems off. I ask questions to make sure I am aware of your pets routine and to ensure your pets environment is comfortable & trustworthy.
“Jayde took awesome care of our Denny-boy and gave him lots of love as we celebrated our friends wedding. Without Jayde picking him up and dropping him off, it would have made having Denny as ring-bearer almost impossible. We’re so grateful!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8, and I’ve walked a lot of my neighbors dogs for money. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats overnight, and I’ve helped train my neighbors dogs. I work part time and have a workout schedule so I take them out early in the morning, late in the morning, afternoon, evening, and before bed. Longer walks are always in the morning and at night and shorter ones are more frequent during the day. I provide a safe and loving environment for every pet in my care. I have a friendly dog who enjoys meeting new friends, and pets are always supervised and treated like family. While I don’t have a yard, I make sure dogs get plenty of walks, exercise and attention. For house sitting and drop in visits, I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and lots of affection. I live with my grandma in a calm, pet friendly home and am committed to keeping your pets happy, comfortable, and safe while you’re away.

About: I have cared for cats/dogs/small animals for 15+ years. Love to give them attention and exercise and make them comfortable while giving you peace of mind while you are away. I mainly do housesitting as I work on my computer from home but can do drop in visits as well! My availability is wide currently as I work virtually and can accomodate varying needs. Comfortable staying in your home to give your pets care and attention. Unable to care for pets in my home currently because I live in a 1 bedroom apartment, but will gladly care for them in your home. We will discuss your pet(s) needs in advance and ensure they get the care they deserve.
“Julianna is great! She showed up on time, took pictures, and most of all, Arlo loves her. I could tell by how affectionate he was with her when she dropped him off. I would highly recommend her!”
“Lizz saved the day for us! We had a family emergency come up and had to leave town last minute. Lizz was able to cover all the walks in our absence. She gave us great feedback and won over our shy pup. Highly recommend.”
“We were very impressed with Emily's excellent communication. Shackleton had a wonderful time with her and she was fanatic at managing a large and opinionated doggo! We highly recommend Emily for dog walking and will definitely request her in the future when we need a walker.”
“Camille was responsive in communication, arrived promptly, flexible with times when needed, and Sassa loved walking with her. I'm very grateful for her support in caring for my dog.”
About: I have over 5 years of dog walking experience and have been a pet lover my whole life! I look forward to helping your animals thrive and love life even more!! I have a very flexible schedule but between 7:30 am and 7 pm work best for me to watch over and care for your pets! Don’t feel afraid to reach out for scheduling outside of my preferred times though! I have an extremely friendly shepsky who would always love to join me while walking your dog(s) or taking care of your cats and/or dogs but he is 100lbs so I will always ask if that’s conducive with your wants and needs!
“Maddy has been an amazing addition to my busy routine! Highly recommend her. My dog doesn't usually like or trust people off of her first meeting, but she instantly fell in love with Maddy.”
About: As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else's care. I've personally raised and cared for animals since I was a kid. These pets have included cockatiels, lizards, dogs and cats of all ages. This experience gives me knowledge in order to provide age-specific care, whether that means longer walk/ play time or gentle attention and medication support for seniors. I am flexible with my schedule due to a work from home schedule. This means more time to play and care for your pups! I am availability typically Monday- Thursday but will update my Rover calendar as frequently as possible to reflect an accurate schedule. I like to send a lot of photos and videos in order to keep you updated and feel at ease (Unless you ask me not to!) One thing that really helps things go smoothly is a detailed schedule & notes (written or typed) for your pet if they have any. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to keep your pup safe and happy.
“Keegan was great with our dog! We have a one year old golden retriever who can be high energy and gets very excited with new people. Keegan did great on walks with him - you can tell she loves animals. We’d happily have her walk/watch him again!”
“Chloe was so communicative and sweet!! I highly recommend her. She was professional and provided detailed oriented updates and photos while i was away on vacation.”

About: Over the years I have dog sat, walked dogs for people with dogs of all ages, breeds and sizes. I have always taken pride in my care for my dogs and of course others as well. I currently don’t have a dog of my own as I am new to Bellingham, but I have a lot of experience with senior dogs as my first dog a 100lb malamute lived to be 16. I love big dogs, high energy dogs, small dogs. I am confident in my ability to handle all breeds energy and size! I work 4/ 10’s Monday through Thursday. Looking to fill my 3 day weekends with dog care! I will be available for dog sitting and dog walking every week Friday through Sunday. I like to get outside and walk and be active with my free time I live in a pet friendly condo with a large grassed dog friendly area and walking path behind the property. We have a fenced in balcony porch that the dog would have access to. Dogs would be allowed on furniture and bed. Care in clients home as well as mine will be followed as instructed to the T of owners request! Following precise owner instructions is vital when caring for others dogs.
About: *Please note that for doggy day care, an extra fee of $15 may be requested if this stay is over 9 hours. I've had multiple dogs throughout my life and genuinely love spending time with them. These days, I have a dog of my own plus my partner's two dogs, (we all live here) so our house is always full of happy pups! My experience includes: • Experienced Rover doggy daycare provider • Experienced dog sitter outside of Rover • Raised in a hobby farm in WI • Caring for diabetic dogs that require strict feeding schedules and medication administration • Following detailed care instructions, dietary restrictions, and medication routines with great attention to detail My own dog has taught me a lot about allergies, sensitivities, and special care needs, so I understand how important it is to trust someone who will take your pet's unique requirements seriously. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, senior, or has special needs, I'll make sure they receive attentive, loving care and are treated like part of the family. I work from home and have a large, fully fenced backyard with a high fence for added security. I also have a screened/mosquito-net door that allows me to keep the door open during the day while I work, giving the dogs easy access to fresh air and the yard while remaining safely enclosed. My desk has a full view of the backyard, so I can keep a close eye on everyone throughout the day. Of course, if you prefer that your dog not have access through the open screened door, I'm happy to keep the main door closed and follow whatever routine makes you most comfortable. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I'll treat your dog with the same care, attention, and affection that I give my own. -I work remotely Monday-Friday from 7-3:30 -I do tend to stay busy out of the house after 5pm for errands or a gym class a few times a week but no day is the same -Typically in the mountains one day out of the weekend I can be decently flexible during the week but I might NOT be the best fit if: -I can’t leave your dog at my house for 1.5 hours after work if I go to the gym or run an errand -If you need care past 8:00pm because that’s typically my bedtime… but I can be flexible. -Your dog doesn’t get along well with others …Otherwise, let’s do this! Other: -I live in the Roosevelt neighborhood in Bellingham -I will definitely send frequent updates and fun photos of your pet child while on pet duty -I am flexible so most things aren't a no but please reach out with questions about availability and I always do my best to respond ASAP House Fully fenced yard front and back 3 dogs live here My partner lives here too and we both are beyond careful with the dogs’ safety. We will love your dog like we love our 3 and yes, the gate is always secured :)
“Puppies spent a relaxing evening with Karrin and her pups after taking their walks around the grounds and getting their energy out. Alice and her aging Lola poodle snuggled together on the couch like 2 little old ladies watching the young pups figure life out. She sent me pictures again like she did the day before and was very conscientious about everything concerning the dogs. I highly recommend her. She communicates quickly on the app and is on time and the only time she was late is because my dogs were finally ready to eat their usual amount of food and ate their full breakfast in the morning and made her late, she wasn’t going to stop them from eating after they had hardly eaten anything for 3 days. We had talked about how much food that they had consumed, or lack there of, between us during our conversations. So she knew when they finally began to chow down like she saw she wasn’t going to stop them, that’s a great sitter to me, I wouldn’t make my dog drop off time that close to a flight time etc.., if you did, that’s on you not her, I digress, she’s awesome, like she said, this is a sign that the dogs feel comfortable. When they eat. I will definitely use her again. I hope you do too!”
“Erin did a wonderful job watching Cashew for a week while we were out of the country. She sent daily photos and videos of all their adventures and made sure we felt at ease. Cashew can be a bit of a handful so we’re so happy to find someone who takes such excellent care of her!”
