Her communication while watching our fur baby was great and we appreciated receiving pictures of her playing and getting all the cuddles. We will absolutly book Annmarie for any future dog sitter needs and highly recomend her!!.”
“Highly recommend. They have a beautiful home with a nice, spacious backyard. Marianne and Josh are kind and have a lot of experience with dogs. With two sweet dogs of their own, my dog had built in companions while I was away. They are warm, welcoming, and sent lots of cute/funny pics & updates. Your dogs will be loved open arms. So grateful my dog could spend the holiday with such a thoughtful, warm, and fun family! Thank you so much for loving Chai!”

“John - what an amazing, big-hearted, caring individual. From the moment I met him, I knew my beloved Mia would be OK with him at his home. Unassuming, caring, gentle, John has a magic way with dogs. I thought Mia a little "traitor" when I saw her snuggled into John's lap while in his care for a week. I trust Mia, and her reactions, and for me, if she's happy, then we're both happy. I'll be using John as my primary and trusted partner in the future. Thank you so much John!”
“Maggie did a wonderful job with Summer. It was reassuring to know that Summer was in a safe and happy place while we were away. I got regular updates and I know by the smile on Summer's face in the pics that she was happy with Mochi! Definitely will be returning for my future sitting needs. Thank you Maggie!”

I’m also an animal caretaker and vet tech and would recommend Tonya to everyone! ♥️”
“Our pup had a fantastic time with Christianna! She took wonderful care of our dog. A trip to the lake with her family, walks and lots of play time with her two dogs - even allowed on the furniture 😊. I really appreciated the pics and texts reassuring me.

“Lisa definitely lived up to the other glowing reviews. She visited our house daily to feed, water and take care of the litter box for our two cats. She is reliable and even made friends with our often-shy Siamese kitty. We appreciated the daily pictures and reports cards while we were away on our week-long trip. We would highly recommend Lisa for your away pet-sitting needs! Hopefully she will still be providing here excellent services the next time we take a trip to visit family.”
About: Cats have been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've helped rescue nine cats and raised seven from kittens to adulthood, giving me extensive hands-on experience with feeding, litter box maintenance, socialization, and understanding feline behavior. I also have experience administering various types of medications and am comfortable carefully following treatment instructions to ensure pets receive the care they need. Through years of caring for cats with different personalities, ages, and needs, I've learned how to build trust, provide a calm and safe environment, and adapt my care to each cat individually. I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats and am committed to making them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“I can’t say enough great things about Helena. I have worked with her multiple times and would do so again in a heartbeat. Helena can be counted on to what is needed and she is warm and attentive to my cats.The most recent time she cared for my two cats, one of them wasn’t feeling well and it was difficult to be out of town. I am so grateful for Helena because I knew I could fully trust her to pay close attention and be confident about administering medicine. I’ve had cats for the last 25 years and Helena is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. I can fully recommend her.”
“Annmarie was fabulous! I would use her again! She is thoughtful and caring about your pet. Sent pictures and you can tell she cares for your family pet kindly. So glad to have found her!!! Thank you”
“Sarah was amazing! She went above and beyond caring for my cats. So nice to have someone you can trust in your home and take excellent care of your babies. Thank you Sarah!”
“Zash took amazing care of my senior kitty, spending lots of time with her. My cat usually takes a while to trust a new sitter but she took to Zash quickly. I would definitely book with Zash again.”
“Chloe stopped by every other day for nearly 3 weeks to care for my 5 ducks and 2 cats. She was communicative and reliable. Everyone was healthy and happy when I got home. I hope to book her again!”
“Samantha was amazing! She sent amazing updates and photos of my cat. Leia was cared for incredibly well and Samatha was amazing with following the care details I left!!”
“Madisyn was very detailed oriented and responded properly to any communications from me. She did a perfect job of taking care of my two cats, including managing my asthmatic cat’s medication. I won’thesitate to use her again.”
“Melanie was OUTSTANDING! She took in depth notes and cared for Click exactly how I wanted her to! I really appreciate it. She was responsive, communicative, came to meet Click and I even though I booked her extremely last minute. She was kind and I loved the photo updates she sent. She played with, groomed, and took care of the littler and tidying up. Melanie rocks!”
“I think a Wren is a fantastic person. She was very accommodating with meeting Zeus and I. Zeus warmed up to her immediately. I instantly felt comfortable giving her the key to my house so she could care for Zeus while I was on vacation for 2 weeks. I will definitely be using her again for my future vacations. I esp appreciated the photos and mini updates while I was away. Much appreciated!”
About: I've been caring for cats since my early teens, and it's been such a joy! My two cats, Lucy and Ranger, are my whole heart, and that same level of attention and care is exactly what I bring to yours. Most of my experience is with cats and small dogs, and I love getting to know each one of their little personalities on their own terms. Some want to be your shadow from minute one; others need a little time and space before they warm up. I respect that, and I'll follow their lead. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe and comfortable in their own home, not just supervised. I bring lots of toys and treats (if you're OK with that!) Friends and family count on me regularly when they travel or have long days away, and I take that trust seriously. I treat every home and every animal the way I'd want mine treated, which means I notice things, I'm careful, I'm clean, and I know what you'd want to hear about while you're away. I'm also experienced with administering medications for cats, both liquid and pill form, so your little ones with health needs are in good hands. Right now I have a flexible schedule, which means I can offer consistent, reliable visits without the juggling act. Your pets won't be an afterthought in a packed day.
“Ana was wonderful! Very responsive, friendly, totally reliable and a natural with our dogs. She watched our two Labradors for a couple days, she was great about sending notes and pictures of how things were going, our dogs loved her! We would definitely recommend her services!”
“Jed was absolute wonderful. For our first time using Rover, Jed sure made sure to make a great impression. He went more than above and beyond in taking care of our FOUR cats. Definitely recommend and will book again.”
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m an avid hiker and have been lucky to share many trails with amazing “trail dogs” over the years. I’ve also pet sat for coworkers, doing drop-ins multiple times a day, and I’m currently providing overnight care for a puppy—something I truly enjoy. Over time, I realized this is something I’d love to do more of. When I say “us,” I mean my little household too: I have a mixed-breed dog and a cat. My cat is gentle and friendly and gets along well with dogs. My dog, Ziggy, is my first male and a rescue from the pound. He’s been a challenge at times, but with patience, consistency, and lots of love, he’s made wonderful progress—and continues to do so. Because of that experience, I have a special place in my heart for shelter dogs and pets who may need a little extra patience, care, and understanding. I’d love the opportunity to offer that same compassion and support to your pets, helping them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I happily offer drop-ins and overnight care on weekends and holidays. If there would be a special need, we most likely could work this out. I care for pets based on their normal routine and your preferences. Whether in your home or during overnights, I focus on feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship, along with any special instructions you provide. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining the routine they’re used to.
About: I have been taking care of Dogs, Cats, and small Reptiles for a combined 10 years. I love to snuggle on the couch, go for walks, and chase the local squirrels. I have a full time time job my hours are 5am - 1:30pm Monday - Friday I also have a small gig job that ranges in schedule, will communicate hours when necessary. My two cats are pretty laid back, other than needing pets 24/7. Growing up and have had to manage many different types of pets, from super hyper and playful to couch potatoes.
“We are very happy to have found Summer on Rover. This is the third time we have worked with her, and she continues to be reliable, trustworthy, and communicative, and takes good care of our kitty.”

“Desiree was so flexible and accepted my fur babies at last minute. During the time I was gone I could tell they received lots of attention with all the pictures I received. I felt completely comfortable and will definitely book again in the future.”
About: -->PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BOOK<-- *I have 2 indoor cats (extremely friendly with dogs/cats) and they love to play with the pups. Make sure your pet is friendly with them too ^^ *If this is your first time with me please let's set up a Meet and Greet so you can meet me and my pets and make sure we are a good fit for your pup!! (I don't take new pets without a previous meet and greet, unless is an emergency case) My priority is to keep your pet safe, comfortable and fully entertained while you are away. Walks around the lake in our neighorhood surrounded by nature are a must do in our daily check list (sometimes we even take them to the mall to socialize and get free treats lol) As a pet sitter I'm offering house & pet walking/sitting opportunities to families (I'm willing to travel farther and pick up them by myself)! I have aided many friends & family members in keeping their pets safe to keep their stay-away stress free! I have years experience with dogs and cats. Feel free to DM for more details or if you need a better deal for long-term boarding 😊 I'm currently at home 24/7. My pets and I are used to wake up at 5:30 sm in the morning for the first "Potty Time" Breakfast between 7-8 am. Walks after midday, naps when/if they are tired. Dinner at 5 pm Generally I take my pets out for potty 3 times a day or when they ask me for. Every dog has their own personality so feel completely free to tell me their routines ❣️❣️(feeding time, potty hours, allowed or not on bed/couch etc) Max and Cleo are Great Pyrenees, 2 extremely gentle giants that love to play and take care of any kind of animals (they are very calm but they love to bark at the begging, they get tired easily after some minutes of play time). In the other hand, Kai is a medium size old doggy, he gets very excited with new pets but a few minutes later he just ignore them and likes to go back to take long naps on the couch. I have 2 friendly indoor cats, they mostly spend the day sleeping inside the bedroom or playing with the dogs from time to time.
“I highly recommend Sonia for all your dog needs. She put my anxious mom self and anxious dog at ease. My dog came home happy and tired after doggy day care. Thank you !!”
About: I'm a long-time dog lover and professional photographer. Your canine companion can expect lots of nature trail walking/running and engaging play time! There are always new toys and treats waiting to surprise them, and trips to the beach and visits to the dog park are often on the menu. Keeping your dog(s) safe and happy is my number one priority! I have a flexible schedule and dog-friendly home with a large, fenced yard and over .5 acre of walking trails for your pet to enjoy. I'm a buisness owner and mother to a pup loving 12 year old daughter, our 5 year old female shepard/huskey mix, Ruth, and our 8 year old cat, Ahya. At our home, your pup is one of the family! I work from home and set my own schedule so adjusting to your pup's schedule is no problem at all! Routine feeding and exercise times will keep your fur baby comfortable and happy. Daycare hours: 6:30am - 6:30pm I have a fenced yard, walking trails, and a friendly, energetic pup for your dog to play with. Dogs can sleep on the furniture (or cuddle up in bed with the humans) or have their own private space in several quiet areas of the house. Lots of toys, treats, and cuddles are sure to keep your pup entertained!
About: When I was little and people asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I always said 'dog walker' — and now I finally get to live that dream! This summer I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I have experience with both small and large dogs, as well as cats, and I treat every animal like my own. This summer I'm home in Olympia taking a college course, so my days are flexible and my focus is simple — hitting the books and spoiling some fur babies! I have plenty of time and am committed to giving your pet consistent, reliable care My home comes with a large fenced yard — plenty of room for your pup to run wild, explore, and have the time of their life!
About: I have had many types of animals my whole life! Dogs, cats, opossum, Guinea pigs, horses and a coyote pup. I treat animals like family members & give them lots of love and attention. I am retired so when I am dog sitting, I will be home the whole time. I give my dog all the attention she needs & I will do the same for yours. I only sit 1 dog at a time so that way your fur baby won’t ever feel left out. I have a fully fenced back yard where my little Morki/Shih Tzu loves to run. My husband & I make sure one of us is holding our little dog if someone comes to the door. We have dog seat belts if we need to take the dogs for a ride. I have a safe place to walk the dogs where we can stay on a sidewalk. No dog will be more cared for.
“Dani had a fantastic day with Rachel! She passed out HARD on the drive home 😂 She loves playing and peanut butter kongs!! I ran out of kibble but Rachel saved the day with breakfast!!”
“Our little Odie loved his time at Rochelle's! She took such good care of him and he came home calm and relaxed every day. Great communication and wonderful location. Highly recommend!”
“I really appreciate Darby's stance on dominance upon arrival, she deals with no bull! And I felt my pup was secure during her daily visits at Darbys home, with walks and suitable interaction with other pups at her home, I had no complaints. My pup was fed her meals as requested and Darby went the extent to clean the containers I brougjt homemade meals in for feeding, so I hadnt needed to worry about that after a long day! I respect Darby's stance even if off stanish to start.”
“I couldn’t be happier with Jennifer and her family for taking such great care of my dog. My dog came home happy, tired. I will definitely continue to board with Jennifer.”
About: I’ve had or taken care of pets my entire life. I will listen to you and what your pet’s needs are and will ensure that they get the best care. Being in the position of needing pet care myself at times, I know how important it is to be confident in your sitter. I currently work from home 3 days a week. On the days that I go into work I will come home halfway through the day to check on your pets that I’m watching. Weekends are usually spent taking the dogs for daily outings. I can provide the importance of a partially fenced in yard. I am always willing to take your dog out on a leash if there is a threat of them running off. I love taking my pups out back on the acreage to run around. My 5-year old golden retriever and 13-year old basset hound will be able to accompany your dog in the yard :)

“Helena made time to do a meet & greet with my dog prior to booking. She responded quickly & professionally to every message, and she kindly answered all of my questions/concerns. She gave me updates & pictures after every walk which was awesome! I knew my dog was in great hands, I'd 10/10 recommended her to anyone & I will definitely be booking her in the future!! Thank you Helena! 😊”
“Maria is especially good at coaxing our dog out on walks when the pup doesn't want to go. We also appreciate that she submits Rover cards for each visit and leaves the house exactly as she found it. We feel so much better about being at work all day knowing Maria is spending time with our dog.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, house birds, falcons, rodents, fish, chickens, ducks, and plenty of other animals since I was a child and have helped care for both young and senior pets I’m currently unemployed searching for jobs, so my routine is really flexible, only needing to set aside time for job interviews and family. I currently have the ability for extended house/pet sitting needs. I do not have the ability for boarding animals currently, however with the services I currently offer I am gentle and respectful of all animals, their owners, and the owners property.
“Liza is great! Most importantly, our Abby loves her and Liza likes Abby an awful lot, too. Liza is reliable, responsive to questions and keeps me informed. She has been so kind during a family member’s serious health problems. Because they were hospitalized unexpectedly, there was and the uncertainty of how long the overnights booking would last since it was dependent on how things went after surgery.”
About: Iv always grown up around animals especially dogs. From a family setting to being just me and my dog in college. I’m a current service member so I have access on JBLM as well. I only have my one pup and getting her a fun friend for a few days is fun for us both. I’m currently off work all summer so I’m usually taking my dog on walks 2+ times a day and just getting out to enjoy the PNW sun. Super careful at first and then loosen up when I learn how they want to play and interact. Some dogs want go play 24/7 and some just like to be a potato. Both are great to me
“Kacie was a true treasure, she was always been on time, totally reliable. Being a medical traveler with random shifts it isn’t easy to find someone that is willing to do different hours and days. The dogs love her and I will continue using her services as long as I am in this area.”
About: I have been taking care of Dogs, Cats, and small Reptiles for a combined 10 years. I love to snuggle on the couch, go for walks, and chase the local squirrels. I have a full time time job my hours are 5am - 1:30pm Monday - Friday I also have a small gig job that ranges in schedule, will communicate hours when necessary. My two cats are pretty laid back, other than needing pets 24/7. Growing up and have had to manage many different types of pets, from super hyper and playful to couch potatoes.
About: I have trained my own heeler puppy since she was 10 weeks old. As well as helped raise another cattle dog until he was 8yo and have cared for and loved many different animals over the years I'm working part time and make up my own schedule. So I will usually have plenty of time for giving animals lots of attention and love. I have my own very sweet 2yo heeler that has been friendly with all dogs. And a sizeable backyard for supervised playtime. I value patience and calmness making the most out of positive reinforcement to promote good behavior.
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I've helped rescue nine cats and raised seven from kittens to adulthood, which has given me extensive experience with feline care and behavior. I love getting to know each pet's unique personality and building a bond with them through play, attention, and consistent care. In addition to cats, I regularly help care for my family's dog through walks, playtime, and daily care. I also have experience raising and caring for ducks, which has taught me the importance of providing consistent care, maintaining routines, and paying attention to each animal's needs. While cats are where most of my experience lies, I'm excited to work with dogs and other animals as well. I'm reliable, attentive to detailed care instructions, and dedicated to making sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, exercise, or specialized care, I'll treat them with the same patience and attention I give my own animals. I'm currently on summer break from college, so I'll have almost unlimited free time to play and care for your pets! I also don't mind weird hours, day or night. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any other care requirements provided by the owner. I like to be extra attentive and keep a close eye on pets because their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while you're away, helping them feel happy and secure in their familiar environment.
About: I have been caring for dogs since I can remember because I’ve always had dogs of my own. Currently I have 4 dogs that I help take care of daily. I have experience taking care of at minimum two dogs as far as the Seattle area for so far max of two weeks. I have also taken care of chickens at the same time so I am prepared in whatever may need to be done. I have no job and am available whenever as far north as Seattle if needed. I am available essentially 24/7 starting June 22nd, until august 16th. I have four dogs and therefore caring for a pet in my own home could prove difficult. However, I am comfortable staying in your house if needed or preferred. I always ask for specific instructions from the owner concerning whatever I need to be informed on because I am aware everyone treats their pet differently.
About: For several years I cat and dog sat for my cousins while they were on vacation, and I occasionally care for my friend’s 3 legged pitbull. For my last job I was I walking a wire haired pointing griffin twice a week. I did this for about 3 and a half years. I myself have a chihuahua and have had cats throughout my life:) Whether it’s all day or just a drop in, I can be flexible depending on what kind of care you’re looking for. We can work together to find a schedule that works for both of us:) Caring for your pet in your home is a level of trust I don’t take lightly, so I want to respect your space and how you use it. Your pet's comfortability and safety is the first priority so having them in a space that they already know can be all the more helpful.
About: I have been pet sitting for the a couple years, caring for both dogs and cats in a variety of settings. I have experience with multi-dog households, including overnight stays for over a week as well as shorter visits, holiday stays, play dates and walks. My experience includes walks, drop in care, feeding and meal routines, administering medications, avoiding pet allergies and of course playtime! I have dog sat for puppies less than two months old to senior dogs with mobility issues who need extra care, diets and sensitivity. I have grown up caring for my own dogs and cats, so I am very comfortable with animals of all ages and personalities. I genuinely love animals and prioritize making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I am currently out of school for the summer and focusing on side work, which allows me a very flexible schedule. I have open availability for pet care throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I provide reliable care in my client’s home by following the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, giving any medications as directed, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I also make sure pets get plenty of companionship, playtime, and mental stimulation through walks, play, and positive interaction. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owner is away. I give clients updates and photos during my stay, and always leave a summary of my time with their pets at the end!
“Madisyn has been doing a great job walking our big rambunctious collie. She is reliable amd communicative and may have some special magic, as our cat who is normally aloof with nonfamily took to her right away and followed her to get more pets.”
About: I've had dogs for as long as I remember. I currently have 5 dogs that live with my parents in Southern Indiana. They are dogs of all types of breeds and sizes, most of which we raised from puppies. The most recent dog, was found in the woods behind their house and I spent hours picking ticks off of him. I just moved to this area and I already miss my dogs so much. I truly love dogs and will take great care of yours! I currently don't have a traditional job so I am free pretty much anytime to look after your pups and give them the care they deserve! I am really good with dogs of all sizes. I will be available for daily feedings, walks, and will have the time to play a long as they wish.
About: Dogs and animals are my passion and my aim is to care for yours to the best of my ability! You can trust that I will make your animals my TOP priority. I work full time (8hrs a day 5 days a week) at a doggy daycare but will be able to work around my schedule during the week whether that’s walking, sitting or just a quick outing and play I will be there for your pup! I have taken care of dogs via friends and family for years and can guarantee that your animals safety is of utmost importance to me. I also currently work at a dog daycare center so i’m very well educated on many different situations that could arise with your pup! I will be sure to send updates at your request and can assure you your animals will be in good hands!
“Lisa was awesome and handled my very strong, animal reactive dog! She was always prompt and very communicative. My dog was sooo excited to see her so I know she was in great hands!”
About: I have worked with both puppies and senior dogs, i have 2 poochon puppies that are 1 year old. I am currently going to school to be a vet technician and I volunteer at the animal shelter in the cat and dog rooms. I have experience handling all different types and sizes of dogs. Im a college student and currently working part-time in the late afternoons. So I have plenty of time to walk, play and give potty breaks! I have a fenced yard suitable for small to medium dogs. I have a large room that I can close off that has tile flooring and access to the backyard and also have pens if dogs need to be separated.

“Jerrie was a lifesaver, and the best sitter for my puppy. Her home is the perfect place for a dog with enough outdoor space to run around. Don't leave your dog at a kennel, call Jerrie.”
“David’s place was like a home away from home for our two dogs. They have different needs and personalities and David was an excellent caretaker for both of them. I hope to be able to have them visit again!”
“Highly recommend. They have a beautiful home with a nice, spacious backyard. Marianne and Josh are kind and have a lot of experience with dogs. With two sweet dogs of their own, my dog had built in companions while I was away. They are warm, welcoming, and sent lots of cute/funny pics & updates. Your dogs will be loved open arms. So grateful my dog could spend the holiday with such a thoughtful, warm, and fun family! Thank you so much for loving Chai!”
“Jennifer and her family were absolutely amazing! She sent updates and pictures every day and told us how he was doing always! Our golden is super shy and skittish, and him being around other pups his age was so good for him. So glad we found them!”
“The best dogsitter EVER!! Lisa is amazing, she will have your family member very comfortable and relaxed!!! My bully enjoyed ever moment with Lisa and family. I will only trust Lisa with my boy!!”
“Another wonderful stay with Cale. Cale thought ahead to ask how Scout would do with fireworks since it was the Fourth of July weekend. I am very appreciative of the loving care that Scout receives when she stays with him.”
“John - what an amazing, big-hearted, caring individual. From the moment I met him, I knew my beloved Mia would be OK with him at his home. Unassuming, caring, gentle, John has a magic way with dogs. I thought Mia a little "traitor" when I saw her snuggled into John's lap while in his care for a week. I trust Mia, and her reactions, and for me, if she's happy, then we're both happy. I'll be using John as my primary and trusted partner in the future. Thank you so much John!”
“Maggie did a wonderful job with Summer. It was reassuring to know that Summer was in a safe and happy place while we were away. I got regular updates and I know by the smile on Summer's face in the pics that she was happy with Mochi! Definitely will be returning for my future sitting needs. Thank you Maggie!”
“Welcoming and wonderful to our pups she was amazing with them. I like the fact that we get pictures of them and everything I really felt like they were in good hands their my baby”
“Our pup had a fantastic time with Christianna! She took wonderful care of our dog. A trip to the lake with her family, walks and lots of play time with her two dogs - even allowed on the furniture 😊. I really appreciated the pics and texts reassuring me. I absolutely would use and recommend Christianna to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Our two pups just completed their first stay with Deidre and we couldn’t be happier on the care they received and the communication she had with us. We hope that she will have the availability to care from them in the near future but anticipate that she will grow in popularity due to her 1st class service!”
“Roxana and Nathan took excellent care of our little dog Yoda, and they were very understanding when we were running late. We highly recommend their services.”
“Kaylee went above and beyond to help us out when our baby was born, even staying flexible with our schedule and sending daily updates with pictures. Best experience on Rover so far.”
“This was our first time using Rover, Darby was very sweet and took great care of our dogs , we would 110% use her service again. My dogs enjoyed exploring her property during the day and getting snuggly in the evenings. Thank you Darby!”
“Colin is great! He sends pics and updates, and my pup is excited and happy when I drop her off. It’s so satisfying to have a sitter that I know my dog likes and is comfortable around. Will 100% use Colin again.”
