“Total peace of mind while away! We were instantly relieved when our highly energetic pup immediately took to Keri and Kerry's family, yard and Beau :) This lovely family puts you at ease with their calm demeanor and years of knowledge and experience with dogs (including active puppies). They are exceptionally intuitive with new and old dogs. Our pup was so well exercised, daily, that it allayed our usual concerns of him getting into mischief. Keri and Kerry were always quick to respond and kept us informed daily. Communication was clear and easy. He was so well cared for that we were genuinely and regularly blown away when we received the pics of him laying contentedly, relaxing and getting pets and love from this wonderful family! Their love and ability to quickly identify and address your dog's needs will bring you the peace of mind needed to enjoy your time away. We will book with them from now on! Thank you Keri and Kerry!”

“Anna and her family took absolutely amazing care of Zeus, our English Bulldog, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in a loving, safe, and attentive home environment. Anna kept us updated and treated Zeus like part of her own family, making sure he was comfortable, well cared for, and happy while we were away. When we picked him up, he was relaxed and clearly enjoyed his stay, which says everything about the care he received. We truly appreciate the kindness, professionalism, and genuine love Anna and her family show toward the pets they watch. We will always use Anna in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets.”

“Ellyse is always wonderful with my two cats! They love seeing her each day and her care for them is exceptional. Verona needed eye drops this time and she took care of this for me.”
“Christian has looked after our cats for years now and there’s no one we trust more. He always makes sure their feeding, medicine, and nighttime routines are followed. And he makes sure to send pictures and videos for us to see what cute shenanigans they’re up to. He’ll always be our first call when we need our four-legged babies looked after whether it be days, weeks, or months.”
About: I have my own 1.5yr old husky/blue heeler, he's my best bud. Before him I adopted a senior lab & loved her through her end of life care. I grew up with multiple dogs & had one other long term dog best friend in early adulthood. I'm currently a stay at home mom with one at home & one in grade school. Have plenty of time to walk, drop in or even dog sit. I will care for your pets with love & follow any instructions given. At my home I have a fully fenced yard & my own dog that is dog friendly.
About: I've had dogs my whole life. One of mine is 14 years old and takes a lot to care for because of her bad back. I also have experience with puppies. I have a seven month old puppy and have been working on training her. I am currently a student in college at Osu and looking to go on long walks and meet some cute puppies in my free time I have lots of property but my dogs do not allow others over. For safety I can use a crate or have the dog on a leash
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, having shared my home with both cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. This experience has given me a natural 'animal sense' and the ability to connect with pets of all temperaments—from high-energy pups to shy or senior cats. Beyond my own furry family, I’m the go-to pet sitter for my friends and relatives, who trust me to maintain their routines, administer medications, and provide plenty of exercise and belly rubs. Whether your pet needs a long walk to burn off energy or a quiet companion to curl up with, I’m dedicated to making them feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I’ll always treat your best friend with the same care and attention I give my own!
“Taylor is a wonderful and dedicated sitter. She kept us informed each day on how our two kitties, Bella and Rudy, we doing. Sent us photos and videos which we truly appreciated. We highly recommend Taylor.”
“We are so incredibly happy with the amazing care Mandi provided for our two cats while we were away. From the moment we left, we felt at ease knowing our munchkins were in such loving hands. Mandi went above and beyond giving them so much love, attention, and cuddles, and making sure they were comfortable and happy the entire time. She was also very thoughtful and attentive, even moving a parcel to the bathroom when our curious cats tried to get to the plastic! When we got home, the apartment was clean and welcoming, which we truly appreciated after our trip. Mandi exceeded all our expectations, and we’re so grateful for everything she did. We’ll definitely be using her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and caring pet sitter!”
“Lora was so sweet and did a great job of keeping me in the loop and sending photos of my cats while I was out of town! It made me feel so much better knowing they were well taken care of.”
About: Hi, my name is Hailey and I’m 28 years old. I am currently going to nursing school full time and I am trying to make some extra money on the side to support my family. My husband and I have had our one dog(Kota, female) for 6 years now and another dog(Ash, male) for 4 years. I also have 2 outdoor barn kitties and 8 chickens. I love to homestead, grow my own veggies and read in my spare time. We have had our dog Kota(English-setter, 11 years old) since she was a puppy and my husband and I decided to adopt Ash(boxer, 6 years old) when he was only 1 year old. He was labeled free and the previous owner could not take care of him, plus he was not trained. He had never experienced grass before so when we first got him his paws would bleed and I got the opportunity to help heal him and hone in to correct his bad behavior skills. I would dedicate 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour at night to train him for a year before he started to trust me and we developed a wonderful relationship like we have with our Kota. I love all of our animal immensely and I believe that animals are not some inanimate object you have but a true companion in your life that deserves to be treated like family. I would love to care for your pet and I can provide some training while doing so in a positive reward environment. I do not believe in animal abuse or keeping animals without having dedication in creating a relationship. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile, I look forward to working with you. I have school in the mornings during the week and I have study time after that. I can work with your pet most likely afternoons and weekends as long as I’m not busy that weekend. I am flexible, it just depends on the requested times. I believe in reward training and care. I have worked with my own dogs through kennel training and rewarding good behavior. Abuse is not a form of training in my mind, I believe any animal can be trained as long as you put the time and effort into them. Doing this creates a stable and loving relationship between you and that animal.
“Krista was easy to communicate with during the entire process. She was attentive and followed the instructions and scheduled to a T. We felt very much at ease during our trip knowing we could count on her. We will definitely be booking her in our future.”
About: I have had dogs in my life ever since I was born all ages from puppies to seniors. My 7 years of experience are in regards to the care of other peoples' dogs. I started with walking the neighbor dogs and now have done multiple house sitting and drop-ins. I enjoy being outside so I'm used to long walks and even runs along side pups. For walks, I'm available before early mornings and late afternoons on weekdays and weekends. For sitting, I'm available most weeks and I work hybrid so I'm often available to work from anywhere as long as there is WIFI to spend more time with the pets. I always keep a close eye on pets ensuring they’re in a secure, safe environment at all times. I also make sure that pets are never left unsupervised for long periods, especially during walks or outings. I believe in building trust with both the pets and their owners. I send regular updates through Rover’s messaging system, including photos, videos, and updates on how their pet is doing. I encourage open communication and make sure I’m responsive to any concerns or requests from the pet owner. If I’m caring for a pet in their own home, I strive to make them feel as comfortable as possible in their own environment, maintaining their routine as closely as possible. I respect the pet's space and try to keep things familiar for them. I follow specific instructions from the owner to make sure all specific needs are met.
“Jazmyne did a great job with my senior cat. He gets very nervous when his mama is gone, but knowing Jazmyne was there gave me great comfort. She gave me daily updates and sent pictures, so I knew how my boy was doing each day I was away. She followed my directions to a tee, and kept me informed when anything seemed out of the ordinary. As a bonus, my house was spotless when I arrived home, which was SO nice to come back to after being gone for an extended weekend. Don’t hesitate to book with Jazmyne; she is very conscientious, and clearly loves the animals she cares for as if they were her own.”

“Ingrid took great care of Coco for a day, going for walks and to the dog park. We could tell at the meet and greet that Ingrid loves dogs, and that our pup would be in good hands! Coco was happy, and we will definitely bring Coco back to Ingrid. Thank you!”
“Coco’s first visit with Makenzie was a great experience! Makenzie is warm, friendly and she really knows dogs! She had Coco relaxed and walking calmly on the leash in minutes. We will be back.”
“Maggie loves coming to Madeline's house. Madeline is quick to answer messages and extremely sweet. Maggie comes home exhausted even though there's no other dogs there when she is there. It means that they're spending quality time with her and that means a lot to me. I'm grateful for Madeline and her home and her sweet family”
“Tanille did an incredible job taking care of Kiwi while my siblings & I went snowboarding at Crystal Mountain 😁 she was very detailed oriented & diligent about Kiwi's eye ointments/wearing the cone. Would highly recommend for anyone in the area!”
“Excellent daycare experience for our 35 pound mini aussiedoodle. We were in the area for a little local vacation and needed a day sitter while we took our daughter to an event. Keri and Kerry have a fantastic back yard and provided our pup with what appeared to be an enjoyable day. Our pup got along great with their dog Beau and got plenty of activity throughout the day. We’d definitely reach out again if we’re back in the area for a future vacation!”
“Joyce and her husband were wonderful with our Coco. They know dogs and worked so well with ours. He has a bit of separation anxiety, but Joyce and her dogs took care of that immediately. Loved the large fenced back yard and the fact that her 2 dogs were small so ours wasn’t intimated. Looking forward to working with her again.”
About: **Meet and Greet Required for all New Clients** *Cat Experienced and Crate Trained Dogs Only* I am certified graduate from Animal Behavior College with over 15 years of experience caring and training dogs. I own Awakening Companionship, a positive reinforcement training business. Having worked professionally and personally with a variety of dog ages, breeds and personalities, I understand the importance of personalized pet care! I currently work from home as a graphic designer, except for one or two days a week subbing at SBLSD or when I see dog training clients. I do have two cats and three senior dogs, so staying close to home for their needs would align with any pet I am caring for. *New Clients must be crated trained and have experience with cats* This is to ensure safety around my other pets during feedings and sleeping/naps. For the safety of you fur- family, I ask that they are comfortable in kennels and around my furry family. I have a fully fenced shady back yard, two loving kids and two senior dogs to keep your fur baby company during their stay. There is ample space to play, train and explore! Exercise and mental play are important to a happy pet, so whether at your house or mine, we make sure to pack in the fun!
About: Dog care Experience 🐾 Caring for dogs has always been a meaningful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog and have spent years looking after pups of all sizes, personalities, and needs. As a dedicated dog lover, I treat every furry guest like one of my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. I do have 3 fur babies of my own. So with each new client we introduce 1 dog at a time and when I feel comfortable they will be all together under supervision of course. My home is truly a dog-loving environment. My fiancé is a mobile dog groomer and together we share a passion for providing top-quality care. Playtime and activity are an essential part of every dog’s stay. Whether it’s zoomies in the yard, interactive play, or fun, energizing walks, I make sure each pup stays happy, stimulated, and engaged. I also have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs and those with special needs, including administering medications such as eye drops. I understand the importance of patience, gentleness, and attentiveness, especially for older pets who need a little extra comfort. With me, your dog will be in safe, loving hands—because they’re not just pets, they’re family ❤️ I’m a stay-at-home dog mom, which means I’m home full-time and able to provide constant care, attention, and supervision for your pup during daycare or boarding. I do share my home with my 3 sweet fur babies. They’re friendly but can take a little time to warm up to new people and dogs. Once you drop off your pup I will allow them to sniff and explore throughout the whole entire house, front yard and backyard/garden. Then when they seem to get settled I start introduction with 1 dog at a time for about 10-15 minutes then repeat with all the dogs I have. Next step is bring 2 pups out at a time to play together but mostly its just alot of Sniffing lol Creating a calm, safe, and loving environment is very important to me, and I take the time to ensure every dog feels secure and welcomed. Your pup will be treated like part of Our Family while they’re here 🐶❤️ Home & Care Details 🐾 I have a nice, fully fenced yard where your pup can safely play, explore, and burn off energy. My three fur babies are always around to help keep your dog active, social, and engaged throughout the day. Daily activity is a priority here—we’ll enjoy plenty of playtime in the yard along with one or two walks, depending on your dog’s needs and energy level. To help keep your pup comfortable and on their normal routine, I kindly ask that you: Pre-portion your dog’s food for their stay Include their usual feeding schedule Provide enough food for the entire visit Give clear, detailed instructions for any medications, if needed This helps me provide consistent, attentive care and ensures your dog feels right at home 🐶❤️ Also at drop off time I ask that you call or send me a message letting me know when you are 20 minutes away and when you arrive. I will meet you and your fur baby on the front porch and I will take over care from there ♡♡♡
“I'm so glad I found Siyun! My senior boy did 8 days of daycare & was excited for drop-off each am with her. Siyun kept me informed & took great pictures. I would definitely recommend using her to anyone!”
“Yukti took good care of our first Siberian puppy, Mika. She turned Mika from a naughty baby to a good dog. Yukti is very good at training dogs and she provides good discipline as well as abundant attention and exercise for my dog. We returned to her after we got our second Siberian pup. Great and professional sitter.”
“Jen is fantastic! She won Duke over from the moment they saw each other - Duke is very excited to see her whenever we stop by. Thank you for providing a safe place for my scruffy best friend!”
“Kyla is amazing! We dropped off our 1-year old pup for the day while we skied at Crystal. Kyla was super responsive and sent multiple photos throughout the day so we knew our pup was having a good time. We picked him up happy and tired! We will definitely be brining Koda back.”
“Seven straight days of dog daycare could not have worked out better! Mariah has a wonderful setup for dogs as well as an obvious love for dogs. I actually got the impression that my dog preferred being at Mariah's more than with me some days. I will definitely be using Mariah's services again.”
“Lexi and Victor were very easy going and responsive. We booked them so we could go hiking in Mount Rainier National Park for the day and it worked perfect. They were flexible and had great communication. Teddy had a great time.”
“Cheri has watched our pup twice and both times he’s come home content and ready for a little shut eye - it must be the nice, long walk in the forest. :) … Thank you for taking care of our somewhat anxious, excitable pup and for the excellent communication. Looking forward to more stays!!”
“Kathie does a great job with our Danish Swedish Farmdog, Jax - she just loves to play at her house. We also like how Kathie keeps us up to date on what's going on during the day with pictures and notes!!”
“Anthony has been so wonderful to work with for our fur baby! He is very caring and lets us k is how her day went as well as how she ate etc. We love the pictures of her playing with his pups and napping and the best endorsement was how excited she was next time we took her. My husband said she could hardly wait to get through the door! Thank you, Anthony! 🐾”
“Our young husky mix loved racing other dogs in Adrienne's fenced pasture. And Adrienne was very helpful when I could not find our reservation on Rover We enjoyed the 10 photos, and could see that Thea's need for active canine companions l was well met.”
About: I have 27+ years experience caring for all kinds of animals but mainly dogs and cats. I really find it rewarding and I enjoy helping animals. I love walking them, brushing, bathing, teaching basic tricks like sit/shake/stay, playing with toys, playing fetch, rewarding with treats! I can also dispense vitamins/supplements, and/or medication accurately if needed. I have experience with pregnancies and older dogs and cats. I will customize your pets care plan to what works best for them. I am widely available through the entire week. I'm very flexible and reliable. Usually I am free during most days and nights. I would appreciate the opportunity to meet your amazing pets, and provide the best quality and safest, care and attention for your loved ones. I have a house with a large open fenced in yard with grass. I have a large crate also if needed. I also have 2 small very friendly dogs of my own here, a Malshi male (Shih tzu/Maltese mix) and a purebred Maltese female. A peaceful and safe environment for all of your pets!

“As I have had surgery and can't walk Gary for while, I looked for someone on Rover to help out. I'm so glad I came across Ingrid! She is so professional, reliable, and good with my big golden who has never walked very well on a leash for me. Ingrid has the magic touch, along with the skills, to help with the pulling. I would highly recommend Ingrid for any Rover service.”
“Kacey was the perfect answer to giving our dogs a midday break while our friends were taking care of them. Kacey was the ‘dog whisperer’ and even got our boys to ‘pose’ for some beautiful photos! We are very thankful for Kacey and her loving care of our boys during their walks together. Thank you, Kacey!”
About: I have always grown up having pets of various kinds including dogs, fish, small frogs, and hermit crabs. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs because I believe they often get overlooked when they deserve a high quality of life, too. (Last year, my family lost our rescue dog of twelve years.) I have also had the experience of working with farm animals throughout the course of my life through participation in a junior farmer’s program, when I was younger, and then acting as a returning volunteer and frequent visitor ever since. I am particularly familiar with raising and caring for chickens. Any chance I get, you bet you can find me learning about, observing, or spending time with animals! I am a recent college graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Spanish. I recently moved to Enumclaw, WA full time. In the upcoming year, I will be job searching for additional part-time work to start saving money while researching graduate school programs in the meantime. So, that being said, I have a very flexible schedule at the moment and am willing to find what works best with your own! I am happy to meet with you prior to caring for your pet(s) to help you decide if we are the right fit! Also, if you have specific questions, concerns, and needs, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am dedicated to providing a reliable and compassionate service. I will treat your pet(s) as if they were my own!
About: About me: I am a Project Engineer for a construction company, we a have a little boy and a baby on the way, and we LOVE animals! We have two beautiful horses, three wonderful dogs, and two cats. Eventually I would like to rescue a few farm animals and foster dogs. One thing that breaks my heart is seeing animals in the shelter or up for slaughter. I think every animal deserves a second shot at life and I wish I could take them all on. However I have saved a few horses from slaughter and retrained them to give them a promising future! Basically I work hard to give my animals and future animals a wonderful life! In HS I was an active FFA member which gave me the opportunity to expand my knowledge from just horses, dogs, and cats to dairy cattle, goats, poultry, rabbits, and swine. I also worked for a large animal veterinarian for 2 years as a vet assistant and gained even more knowledge on how to properly care for ALL animals. Ranging from exotics, livestock, equine, dogs, and cats. So your Fur baby is in GOOD hands! At this time I am only accepting clients for drop in visits or house sitting (I do not stay the night). As we just welcomed a newborn baby into our lives. However I am available at all hours to take care of your pet needs! I look forward to working with you! I am very attentive to detail and will follow your instructions to ensure your pets are well taken care of and your home is secure and exactly how you left it 😊
About: I’ve always dabbled in pet sitting for the fun of traveling and meeting new breeds. Now that I’m semi - retired, I've discovered a new joy in providing care without the pressure of outside responsibilities. Having nowhere else to be means I can spend hours with your pets, letting them set the pace on our walks, and offering endless cuddles, allowing me to form trusted connections with every animal I watch. It is not that pet care fits into my life as much as pet care IS my life. It is breakfast, walk or read (depending on the species), groom, pet, games, naps, then dinner and repeat until bedtime. In follow the outline provided by the pet parent to work through the pet’s familiar daily routine. For dogs, I emphasize exercise and with cats, I emphasize stillness. For both, we find a compromise 😂
About: Hello! My name is Abbie, I’ve lived with a dog since I was 6 years old and have many years of care for dogs, cats, bunnies and farm animals! Many friends and family have trusted me with their precious animals for house sitting, walks, feeding and care. My desire is to serve you and your pets in a safe, comfortable and fun environment. I am currently working part-time and I’m very flexible in my schedule. Most weeks I’m able to be present for partial days and nights. I have a chill Golden Retriever at home with my family who love’s company and making new friends if your pet is up for it! If not, I love having time to get to know a pet in their own home. Your pets comfort is my top priority so making sure my attitude is calm and relaxed for your cutie is very important to me! Additionally, I am a pretty active person so play time is always on the schedule. So whether your pet is young and energetic or quiet and mature, I’m always ready to fit the needs of your pets!
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, having shared my home with both cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. This experience has given me a natural 'animal sense' and the ability to connect with pets of all temperaments—from high-energy pups to shy or senior cats. Beyond my own furry family (one friendly cat), I’m the go-to pet sitter for my friends and relatives, who trust me to maintain their routines, administer medications, and provide plenty of exercise and belly rubs. Whether your pet needs a long walk to burn off energy or a quiet companion to curl up with, I’m dedicated to making them feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I’ll always treat your best friend with the same care and attention I give my own! Pet care is a priority of my daily routine. My mornings always start with a dedicated walk or active playtime to ensure dogs start their day happy and get the attention they deserve. Because I have a flexible schedule, I am able to provide consistent midday bathroom breaks and every few hours. My wife works for the school district so she is home during breaks and all summer. My evenings are reserved for more exercise/walks/fetch and plenty of one-on-one snuggles to wind down. I prioritize clear communication, sending you photo and text updates throughout the day so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing. We live on 2.5 acres so there is a lot of room to play fetch and get lots of exercise. It’s mostly fenced so I am happy to take dogs on leashed walks if preferred. We live in a large house which dogs are welcome in and will get lots of attention from my 3 year old son. We do have a cat (Boba) which is very friendly and stays in her own room at night so dogs have the rest of the house over night.
About: Hi, I’m Carissa! I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs. I raised and cared for Carhart, my energetic Jack Russell Terrier, and Chip, my sweet Chihuahua, from adulthood through their senior years. Their different personalities taught me that every dog has unique needs, routines, and ways of communicating. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, basic grooming, administering oral medications when needed, cleaning up after pets, and providing lots of love and attention. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. As a full-time nanny, caring for others is what I do every day. Families trust me to be dependable, attentive, and responsible, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, exploring new smells, or relaxing with cuddles, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. I’ll treat your furry family member like my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a full time nanny my schedule is pretty busy! Mondays and every other Tuesday I work 7:30am-5pm and then on Wednesdays 11-5 & Thursdays I work 12pm-6 and Fridays 8am-4pm Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I’ll treat your home with respect and always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’m Jen — a lifelong animal lover with over 4 years of hands-on experience working at an animal shelter, plus many additional months caring for dogs and other animals on a small farm property. If there’s one thing I truly understand, it’s dogs. Especially the shy, anxious, and misunderstood ones. They hold a very special place in my heart! There is no greater feeling than earning the trust of a dog who needs a little extra patience and understanding. At the shelter I worked with every type of dog imaginable, from easygoing family pups to dogs with more complex needs due to past trauma. I was trusted to walk and handle even the more anxious or sensitive dogs, helping them build confidence and learn to trust new people. I’m very comfortable reading dog body language and adjusting my approach so each dog feels safe, respected, and understood. One of the dogs I worked closely with, Donald, needed a trusted handler present while new volunteers learned how to walk him safely, and I helped train others so he could get the exercise and enrichment he deserved. I also helped start enrichment initiatives at the shelter, including treat puzzles, mental stimulation games, and a “dog play buddy” program to give the dogs additional socialization and activity. One of my most special experiences there was helping care for a mama dog who gave birth to a litter of 10 (10!) puppies. I helped care for and socialize those puppies as they grew until they were ready for their forever homes. I also have experience caring for senior animals and understand that older pets often need a little extra patience, gentleness, and attention to their comfort and routine. Beyond dogs, I also have experience caring for cats and bunnies. Over the past few months I’ve helped care for my landlady’s 1yo kitty, and I’m very comfortable providing drop-in care and pet sitting for cats and small animals as well. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting/boarding and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, comfort level, and body language so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: every animal I care for should feel safe, so very loved, and understood. Pet care is my primary focus, so my daily routine is built around providing consistent, hands-on care. I structure my day to include regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, exercise, enrichment, and downtime, depending on each pet’s needs. I’m home for the majority of the day, which allows me to provide a high level of supervision and attention. Pets are rarely left alone for extended periods, and I’m able to adjust my schedule to support different energy levels, routines, and personalities. Whether a dog needs more activity and engagement or a calm, low-stress environment, I’m able to tailor my day to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I care for every pet based on who they are — not just a one-size-fits-all routine. I pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and comfort cues so pets feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for. In my home, dogs stay on a fully fenced 10-acre farm property where they can safely explore, play, and decompress. All outdoor time is supervised, and I’m intentional about creating a balanced environment — active play for dogs who love it, and plenty of quiet downtime for those who don’t. I have a friendly Mini Goldendoodle and a very mellow senior pup in the home, and I take introductions slowly and thoughtfully. I’m always prepared to separate or crate dogs if needed to keep everyone comfortable and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to your routines and preferences so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I keep things calm, consistent, and predictable, which is especially important for anxious or sensitive animals. I’m very comfortable with a wide range of personalities, including dogs who need a little extra patience or structure, and I pride myself on creating an environment where pets can relax and just be themselves.
“I had to be away from home for several appointments and Mandi came and took my poop for a walk. I came home to a happy dogo who clearly had a good day. She wasn’t pouting when I came home!!”
About: I have walked and have had overnight stays with my neighbors dogs for 6 years now. From big dogs to small dogs and even cats! I prefer no aggressive breeds(pits, shepherds, no huskies etc) I am pretty free during the week now that my daughter has started school. I am a musician also so I am out of town sometimes for shows and gigs, but I do have free time too! If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have a big yard and there are great walking trails around my house. There is also a doggy park near by. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat, but he is chill and warms up easily. If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. We help each other out! Only excepting smaller to medium sized dogs for new clients currently. I do not have a fenced yard and keep all dogs on a leash whenever I am outside. They are able to run free in my home though!
“Silvia was absolutely wonderful! I am an anxious person about our dogs' care. We also have a senior dog with her own quirks. Silvia was kind and patient in getting to know our dogs and communicated with me every day about the visits. I highly recommend her and look forward to requesting her support for our dogs in the future! Thank you so much, Silvia!!”
About: Hi, my name is Hailey and I’m 28 years old. I am currently going to nursing school full time and I am trying to make some extra money on the side to support my family. My husband and I have had our one dog(Kota, female) for 6 years now and another dog(Ash, male) for 4 years. I also have 2 outdoor barn kitties and 8 chickens. I love to homestead, grow my own veggies and read in my spare time. We have had our dog Kota(English-setter, 11 years old) since she was a puppy and my husband and I decided to adopt Ash(boxer, 6 years old) when he was only 1 year old. He was labeled free and the previous owner could not take care of him, plus he was not trained. He had never experienced grass before so when we first got him his paws would bleed and I got the opportunity to help heal him and hone in to correct his bad behavior skills. I would dedicate 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour at night to train him for a year before he started to trust me and we developed a wonderful relationship like we have with our Kota. I love all of our animal immensely and I believe that animals are not some inanimate object you have but a true companion in your life that deserves to be treated like family. I would love to care for your pet and I can provide some training while doing so in a positive reward environment. I do not believe in animal abuse or keeping animals without having dedication in creating a relationship. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile, I look forward to working with you. I have school in the mornings during the week and I have study time after that. I can work with your pet most likely afternoons and weekends as long as I’m not busy that weekend. I am flexible, it just depends on the requested times. I believe in reward training and care. I have worked with my own dogs through kennel training and rewarding good behavior. Abuse is not a form of training in my mind, I believe any animal can be trained as long as you put the time and effort into them. Doing this creates a stable and loving relationship between you and that animal.
“Great little walk for my little pup! Lauren was very good with communication and loved the pictures/video she sent. Sad Boston will be losing her but enjoyed our interaction very much!”
About: I raised my chocolate lab. Potty, crate, and obedience trained. I have dog sat in my home town 4 dogs at once in a tiny home, that takes skill. I’ve taken care of all size of pups, and every age. At the moment I am laid off as a teacher so my days are free. I mostly am open on the weekdays, but some weekends I can make work ! I have a large fully fenced yard. Lots of room to walk or run depending on your dogs energy level. I have kennel availability and extra leashes for walks.
About: I have been a dog sitter awhile and have gained a lot of experience. I have done overnight stays, check ins, dog walks, and more. I have a puppy of my own and have grown up with dogs my whole life. Neighbors, friends, and more have trusted me to check in on their pets, feed them, and play with them. Worked with many different dogs and various ages. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to come check in on the pups and play with them. My work schedule does change depending on the week but I am available every day of the week. I am free mornings and nights and would have time mid day to check in on the dogs. I have a fenced yard for my dog and I walk him twice a day so he can get his energy out. I would walk your dogs how ever much is needed. Additionally, I would make sure to check in on them multiple times outside of my other jobs to ensure that they are good and can be let out. I am comfortable making sure any necessary medication is given on time and that they are also fed at there normal times. I know how much pets need to play and I would love to play fetch and more with your pets!!
About: With years of experience in dog care including breeding and pet sitting many different breeds such as; Labs, Pit bulls, German Shepards, Dachshunds, and Corgis for our friends and family, I have developed a deep understanding of differentiating canine needs. Above all, I believe in patience and consistency, ensuring that each dog feels cared for whether they’re with me for a short period or a long stay. I only work 3 days a week and have a very flexible schedule which would make it easy for me to care for other dogs. I also have a very helpful partner I live with who also loves animals. I have a fully fenced yard with two very friendly corgis. Our spacious yard provides plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore safely. We have a doggy door so they have easy access to get in and out. We live in a very safe neighborhood with lots of pet friendly trails.

“Esther was extremely accommodating and easy to work with. She was recommended to us by a friend. She took very good care of our 10 month old pup and we will definitely be bringing our dog back to her. Esther is very conscientious responsive.”
“Total peace of mind while away! We were instantly relieved when our highly energetic pup immediately took to Keri and Kerry's family, yard and Beau :) This lovely family puts you at ease with their calm demeanor and years of knowledge and experience with dogs (including active puppies). They are exceptionally intuitive with new and old dogs. Our pup was so well exercised, daily, that it allayed our usual concerns of him getting into mischief. Keri and Kerry were always quick to respond and kept us informed daily. Communication was clear and easy. He was so well cared for that we were genuinely and regularly blown away when we received the pics of him laying contentedly, relaxing and getting pets and love from this wonderful family! Their love and ability to quickly identify and address your dog's needs will bring you the peace of mind needed to enjoy your time away. We will book with them from now on! Thank you Keri and Kerry!”
“Harlie is awesome! Quick and consistent communication and clear care for our pup. Our pup has separation anxiety and needs special care. Harlie accommodated that request right away and had a great follow up after the stay. We already booked another stay with Harlie!”
“Anna and her family took absolutely amazing care of Zeus, our English Bulldog, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in a loving, safe, and attentive home environment. Anna kept us updated and treated Zeus like part of her own family, making sure he was comfortable, well cared for, and happy while we were away. When we picked him up, he was relaxed and clearly enjoyed his stay, which says everything about the care he received. We truly appreciate the kindness, professionalism, and genuine love Anna and her family show toward the pets they watch. We will always use Anna in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets.”

“I only met with Lexi, she is so nice and I got daily updates/pics. My dog seemed happy, and I would hire them again. Lexi was very flexible about dropoff and pickup, as well as arranging a meet and greet.”
“Kristin was beyond amazing. My hubby & I boarded our pit bull Weatherly for a night with her. Our dog is reactive towards other dogs, and a pit bull, so trying to find someone to watch her that doesn't feel uneasy can be a bit hard. We did a meet & greet, and I instantly knew she was the one to take care of our dog Weatherly. Kristin is very personable, within 5min of talking with her she felt like a long time friend. She has great communication, my hubby & I got picture updates. Her & weatherly hit it off from the beginning, and Kristin was super attentive to Weatherly's needs. We love Kristin so much, we actually rebooked. Weatherly will get to hang out with Kristin for 5 days, while my family & I are on a trip. She's our go to person!! Thank you for taking such good care of our fur baby!!!”
“Leslie is fantastic!!! We felt so good about leaving our baby with her. Basil has some separation anxiety (so do I) and she was great with both of us and sent photos every day and some videos of her playing. It made it so we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about her. We will definitely use her on the future and highly recommend her!!!”
“Our big boy Simba has had the best time staying with Jordin. She sent us pictures and videos which we really appreciate and he seemed happy to see us when we picked him up but also wagging his tail as he said goodbye. We have found our new favorite place to leave him. Thank you Jordin.”
“We’re so appreciative of the loving care and attention Koda’s received from Diana and her family. It gives you such peace of mind to know your puppy’s being loved, played with, and taken care of in a nice home with good people. Each time we come back, it’s obvious how happy she’s been there. She loves staying with Diana and the boys. Thanks you guys!”
“Jean is so good with Duffy. I can always count on her to give him excellent care. She knows he needs lotsa loving and I'm sure he gets it. His visit is also a great opportunity for him to be social with other dogs. My mind is always at ease when I leave him with her!!”
“First time using rover and found Noelle to be a great fit for our 2 bigger dogs. She has years of experience with animals and it shows in her attention to detail and the level of care she provided. We got updates with pictures and videos all through their stay. She took them on walks, they got a chance to play with her own dogs. They came back to us happy and worn out! We will definitely use Noelle again!”
“Diana was responsive and so great about sending pics and videos of our pup Calvin! Her setup was perfect for a highly energetic puppy, and he came home happy and healthy. We’d definitely book again!”
“She was absolutely wonderful with our little picky boy! 🐶❤️ She made him feel comfortable, safe, and turned the whole experience into so much fun—especially getting to play with her dogs. She even took him out for a walk, which I wasn’t expecting but genuinely appreciated. Seeing his little tail wagging as he happily went to her was the best reassurance that he felt comfortable and loved. 🥹 She kept us updated throughout the day with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so grateful for how caring and attentive she was with him. We would absolutely trust her with our little guy again!”
“Kristine was absolutely amazing! She was so caring and professional with my sweet boy, Marlie. She kept me in the loop with regular updates and pictures of Marlie while he was under her care. She even took a last-minute call for boarding because of a family event. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for boarding in Puyallup and the surrounding areas. I was completely satisfied with her service!”
