About: I have several years of experience caring for pets for friends and family. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets stay on their regular routine. I treat every pet like my own and focus on keeping them happy and safe. I have a flexible schedule which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for drop-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure your pet stays happy and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. There is a fully fenced backyard so pups can run around safely. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep a clean and safe environment, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care so they feel relaxed while you’re away.
About: Hi! I'm Dakota, and I've been around animals my entire life. From schnauzers and springer spaniels to Rottweilers and labs, I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe pets are family, and I love getting to know each animal's unique quirks and needs. I'm a dependable, punctual person who values honesty and communication. I understand that life happens and not everything is within our control. Whether schedules change unexpectedly or your pet needs a little extra patience and understanding, I'll always do my best to work with you and provide compassionate care. I have two energetic kids, a Russell Terrier, and a playful Labrador of my own, so caring for animals is simply part of my everyday life. I start each day with walks, feedings, potty breaks, and plenty of pet care, and I end my days the same way. Making sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for is second nature to me. As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and quality one-on-one attention for your furry family members. I have a small fenced backyard that's perfect for supervised playtime and games of fetch. I also prioritize safety by avoiding outdoor activities during extreme temperatures and always following your pet's feeding schedules and care routines. My goal is simple: to care for your pets the same way I care for my own.. with patience, kindness, consistency, and lots of love. I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your animals, and I would be honored to be that person for your family. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I have two rambunctious kids, a Russell Terrier, and a Labrador of my own, so I understand that life with pets can be both busy and rewarding. I'm currently a full-time online student, and aside from my regular household responsibilities, I have a very flexible schedule. Checking in on fur babies is easy to accommodate and truly one of my favorite parts of the day. I love providing pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve while giving their owners peace of mind. I have a small, fully fenced backyard that provides a safe space for supervised outdoor play and games of fetch. My Labrador is very playful and loves having a canine companion to run around with! While my yard isn't large, it's plenty of space for exercise, enrichment, and fun. Your pet's safety and routine are always my top priorities. I closely follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and outdoor time. Walks are also an important part of a dog's day, weather permitting, and I always check pavement temperatures to ensure it's safe for sensitive paws before heading out.
“Fantastic sitter. Reliable, communicative, and incredibly caring. My dog was happy and well looked after the entire time. Received regular updates and photos which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Five stars without hesitation.”
“Patrick was amazing with Griffey! Griffey became friends quickly with their dogs and looked like he had a blast playing the whole week. Patrick was amazing about sending updates and pictures, and was very organized with making sure all of Griffey’s things came back with him. Griffey came home a very happy dog and even learned a new cool trick!”
“Makena is wonderful! She made me feel so at ease leaving my dog Julie with her. She was attentive to my pups needs and able to give her the flexibility to play with other dogs and be separated if she became too overwhelmed. I will be booking with her in the future again!”

I have a senior dog, who I give medication to, I know the responsibility to care for mans best friend! I don’t have a fenced yard, my dogs roam free they never leave the property, I live with my parents for the time being! I’m an animal lover! There are 11 dogs on the farm, I personally have 2 dogs!
“We left our senior pup with Matt for almost a week and felt so at ease! He asked lots of questions to make sure he could keep her routine as normal as possible and our girl looked like she had a great time. It was nice having peace of mind while being away - would definitely use again!”
“Carmen was great! Our puppy had a blast and you can tell she has nothing but love for animals. We got pictures and videos during our dogs stay and you could tell he was so relaxed! Next time we need to go out of town, we will definitely book with Carmen!”

“Gina is a godsend! We have two very attached girls that are high energy and picky, and Gina's large fenced property and willingness to treat our girls as if they were her own are the precise reasons we would recommend her to anyone and will continue to only use her when we need someone trustworthy to take care of our girls while we are away. Gina's large fully fenced grassy yard was our dogs favorite, and she even offered toys, beds and personalized hands-on medication and hand feeding when either health or nerves were affecting our girls. They know here by name and aren't even nervous to go with her now, as they used to be when we used local kenneling facilities. We are so glad to have found her. Thanks for everything!”
“Lisa took exceptional care of Mellow—she was attentive to her needs and ensured she remained comfortable throughout. She was also very flexible with our schedule and kept us reassured with regular updates and photos.”
“Paulina watched our dogs last minute and through difficult circumstances. She was understanding, personable, and willing to go above and beyond to help us. We’d highly recommend her for your pets.”
“Sidney was great with our puppy. She was responsive, friendly and warm. She communicated well and kept sending us pictures through the stay. She even took him on walks and followed all the guidelines/schedule perfectly. Would definitely 10/10 recommend her.”
About: I've had pets since I was born, so usually i'm quick to be befriended by most animals.

“Lauren was wonderful. I picked her due to the fact that she has experience being RVT & my cat isn't the friendliest. Lauren was the nicest to Gamora & even took the extra time to locate Gamora when she didn't come out of her hiding spot. I will definitely be booking Lauren again, if she up to check on my sassy cat again.”
“Kaitlin did a fantastic job with my pup Jackson! The updates and photos she shared were very thorough and she really made my little guy feel at ease. I will definitely book with her again ?”

While we were away she was patient and and understanding to his playful nature, she made sure he was fed and that he got plenty of exerciise when she did her drop in visits. We definitely will be calling her again, if we need someone to watch over our Draco. Thank you Kristen!”

About: I’ve taken car of dogs and cats since I was 16, owners have relied on me to feed, water and provide bathroom breaks and exercise for their pets, and have never been disappointed!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Byron
“Wonderful experience! Mykenzie was able to accommodate Abel on very short notice, which I greatly appreciated. He spent 3 days in daycare & was well cared for the entire time. Communication was great, I received updates & he came home happy & relaxed. It's clear she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. I would happily book with her again & highly recommend her to other pet parents!”
About: I have a huge fenced in yard, your pets will have a ton of attention and be well taken care of, they can be indoor and we go outdoors often tons of toys and freedom besides rules you give! I have experience with all animals and breeds, no complaints about any of them. I'll work with any animal you have. I'm flexible I work from home and can give a lot of attention to your pet. I can house sit, go to your house or they can come to mine, I have a open schedule. I feed, give water, play outside and inside, provide toys even, I have a huge fenced in yard but also a line with a leash going from one end to the other for dogs or even cats to be able to play outside safely, I listen to rules and would always make sure your home is locked up and won't forget anything. I'm organized and can promise everything will be well taken care of. I can provide baths as well.
“Excellent care. Knowledgable & experienced. I feel confident my dog is safe and socialized all day. I get great communication with videos and photos. I can drop my dog off and not have to worry about him. Thanks Carmen!”
“Makena is absolutely amazing! My two girls—Harley and Princess Peach—had the BEST day with her. They played hard, made new friends, and genuinely didn’t want to leave. I actually had to carry them out because they were having such a great time! Makena treated them like they were her own. She was so organized, attentive, and provided personalized care that really put my mind at ease. She even sent photo updates throughout the day, which made me feel so confident about leaving my girls in her care. It’s clear that Makena truly loves what she does, and it shows in every detail. We feel so lucky to have found her, can’t wait for the next visit!”
“I loved all the updates from Mariah while Ra was at daycare. He was so genuinely happy and contented when I brought him home after. Slept really solid all night too. I’m impressed with how well he did and I would definitely book with Mariah again.”
About: Hello, Thanks for checking my profile. To start, I'm always willing to review a request even if it's outside of my profile per se. So if you think that it's just slightly outside my parameters, please feel free to just send me a message, glad to chat at the very least. I am no longer accepting large breed dogs, with the exception of previous clients. If you think your dog is just on the cusp of a large breed, please let me know and we might be able to work something out. I am not boarding cats at this time, as I could not be sure I could isolate them from my other pets well enough if I had to. I’m the proud owner of two wonderful dogs: Indy, a 6-year-old Papillon, and Loki, a 3-year-old Corgi. Indy is a calm, observant pup, while Loki is playful and inquisitive, always eager for attention. I raised both dogs from six weeks of age and work from home full-time, so I’m always present to give pets the attention they deserve. Before Indy and Loki, I cared for two cats who each lived to 18 years old, providing them with a happy, well-loved life. During that time, I became experienced with administering insulin shots, pills, capsules, and liquid medications, and I’m attentive to the subtle behaviors and patterns that signal a pet’s needs. My home features multiple pet gates for safe separation when needed, a second floor for flexible space, and a large, fully fenced backyard with lush grass. I live in a quiet, flat, dog walk friendly neighborhood . While I’m not currently sitting cats, I’m happy to provide dogs with consistent care, attention, food, and any required medication. Because I work from home, I can accommodate nearly any reasonable request. I am able to take frequent breaks and often spend that time playing with my two dogs or taking them on walks. They are let out at regular intervals and fed twice a day. I can keep your pet within my view at all times while I’m home and can accommodate a crate if you prefer. During the day, my dogs usually rest at my feet or on a nearby bed until our first walk. Your pet is welcome to stay with me or lounge wherever they’re comfortable on the first floor of my home. If needed, I can separate pets by floor or with pet gates to avoid direct interactions.
About: *MUST MEET ME AND MY LAB IN PUBLIC PRIOR TO BOOKING*. Although my lab, Hela loves everyone, unfortunately not every dog loves her so please set a meeting prior to booking! I'm flexible with times and locations! I offer attention to detail and love for pups. I'm the pup mom that knows all my dogs allergies and favorite foods! I've had dogs my entire life and even as a kid began training them! My friends always choose me when they are going out of town to watch their pups. I actually decided to join Rover after one of the pups I watch dads suggested I should! I work from home with my black lab who loves everyone and is a gentle soul (her 2 besties are a min pin and a golden retriever) and currently she is the only animal in my house. We take hourly stretch breaks to pee and play a little ball! I have a fenced yard with grass. If you'd like, I'll send cute pictures throughout the day too! Also if allowed, the pups go with me to get weekly pups cups from Starbs. I work from home and have a black lab, so all day everyday I do pet care. My job fortunately makes it easy to interact with thr pups and make sure their needs are taken care of. Prior to recently (they moved), I was watching a golden retriever (Duke) along with my lab every week day and his dad is who suggested I start rover as he would often say "I know my buddy is safe and happy here, he has the best of time". Currently, when we have a guest I make sure there food is prepared and on time. We take hourly potty and play breaks (more if requested - I have a buzzer my dog presses). The rest of the day the pups are free to roam the house with me. I have dog beds (including some in my office), thousands of toys (my dog unfortunately does not destroy anything lol), and when we have an overnight guest, the pups sleep in the bed with me (unless otherwise requested). I love pups and have always wanted more but babysitting is a happy medium!
About: I have had dogs in my home for the majority of my life and loved every minute of it. After recently losing our girl to old age I’ve been missing time with fur babies. They really are the best! I’ve joined Rover to love on other fur babies and get some steps in all at the same time! I currently work as a medical device rep so my schedule is extremely variable and based on if I have cases scheduled or not. I have found myself working much less than I’m used to and because of that I’m looking to pick up a new hobby/side hustle as I enjoy keeping myself busy. I would prefer to meet any fur babies for the first time with the owner present. This is very important to me. I want to feel comfortable with your dog and build some trust. My biggest priority is to keep myself and your dog safe.
About: My name is Kellen and I live with my wife, daughter and our two puppies, Mya and Dexter. Dexter is an English Mastiff/German Shepard mix and Mya is a Black Lab/Husky mix. They love to lounge around all day and go on adventures with the family!!! Eating seems to be their primary motivation in life. 🤣 I have had many puppies in my life and have loved each one with my whole heart. In the past I have also had ferrets, for about 8 years when I was in college. I work during the week from 5am-4pm and am free all weekends and weeknights after 4pm. I have experience with all different types, sizes and temperaments of dogs. My wife is home full time so if your puppy is staying with us during the week there will always be someone with them at all times. Dexter is not very keen on any dog bigger than his sister and a meet and greet to determine if he would be ok with a big dog would be advised. Mya loves all dogs and loves to play play play! Our little girls also adores dogs and is very gentle and nice with ours, much to our surprise as we thought she may pound on them or pull and poke at them, but she’s so sweet and gentle when petting and talking (babbling) to them. We go on frequent walks and potty breaks with our puppies and they would love some company for those trips! Any other questions you may have, don’t hesitate to ask! I am home during the day and have two pups of my own, pet care happens all day every day in our house that’s for sure 😂 I have a fenced yard and two other pups to have fun with. Two kids will expend any extra energy that your pups may have 🤣

About: Hi there! I grew up around both cats and dogs and have become a life long lover of both! I couldn’t really say if I am more of a cat or dog person so I am both(: I have one cat of my own, Mr. Kitty, he is a classic farm cat that loves his evening cuddles! I have also become an impromptu doxie mum to my boyfriend’s 9 year old Snoopy and we just recently adopted Winnie. These two have brought so much joy into my life and I always look forward to them waiting for me at the door and going on all our adventures with us! I am a single mom who works part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups or to hang out with your kitties!

Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I recently graduated from Washington State University with my Bachelors in Elementary Education. This summer is dedicated to obtaining my Masters Online, so I do not have any huge responsibilities to worry about. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize safety, trust, and following the owner’s instructions exactly as provided. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level, so I make sure to stick closely to their normal schedule for feeding, walks, medication, and any other specific needs. I treat every home with respect and make sure it is left clean and as it was found. I also keep communication open by providing updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and informed while they are away. My goal is to create a calm and safe environment for each pet, making sure they feel secure and cared for in their own space. I pay close attention to behavior and needs, especially for pets that may require extra patience or care, and I always make their well-being my top priority.

I have a small fenced backyard that's perfect for supervised playtime and games of fetch. I also prioritize safety by avoiding outdoor activities during extreme temperatures and always following your pet's feeding schedules and care routines. My goal is simple: to care for your pets the same way I care for my own.. with patience, kindness, consistency, and lots of love. I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your animals, and I would be honored to be that person for your family. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I have two rambunctious kids, a Russell Terrier, and a Labrador of my own, so I understand that life with pets can be both busy and rewarding. I'm currently a full-time online student, and aside from my regular household responsibilities, I have a very flexible schedule. Checking in on fur babies is easy to accommodate and truly one of my favorite parts of the day. I love providing pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve while giving their owners peace of mind. I have a small, fully fenced backyard that provides a safe space for supervised outdoor play and games of fetch. My Labrador is very playful and loves having a canine companion to run around with! While my yard isn't large, it's plenty of space for exercise, enrichment, and fun. Your pet's safety and routine are always my top priorities. I closely follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and outdoor time. Walks are also an important part of a dog's day, weather permitting, and I always check pavement temperatures to ensure it's safe for sensitive paws before heading out.

I feel that it is a privilege and huge responsibility when taking care of someone else animals. They are YOUR family members and deserve to be taken care of well when not w their families. I like to have owners write down personality traits, behaviors, and expects for me prior to taking a job. A meet and greet is crucial and important to make sure your animals are comfortable with me and I with them. Having a sitter can be expensive but I promise worth it to have someone come to your home to eliminate anxiety or stress for the fur family and the animals. I will run and play and provide comfort for your animals. I personally enjoy the “unruly” ones that keep me on my toes because I believe every animal is trainable. Please consider me for your dog sitting, walking, needs. (Tri cities area only.) I have a very open and flexible schedule right now. I am partially disabled and pivoting from health care to animal care and I love it. I can not care for pets at my home right now but I am available for in home stays or drop in visits.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, from caring for my own pets to helping rescue animals with my mom, who worked at a shelter. Growing up, I often went to work with my parents and spent a lot of time around animals there, which helped me learn how to interact with pets of different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Because of that experience, I’m very comfortable with animals and understand how important patience, consistency, and attention are when caring for them.

I treat every pet as if they were my own, paying close attention to their behavior and needs, and I provide updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pets are well cared for.

About: Hi! I'm Dakota, and I've been around animals my entire life. From schnauzers and springer spaniels to Rottweilers and labs, I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe pets are family, and I love getting to know each animal's unique quirks and needs. I'm a dependable, punctual person who values honesty and communication. I understand that life happens and not everything is within our control. Whether schedules change unexpectedly or your pet needs a little extra patience and understanding, I'll always do my best to work with you and provide compassionate care. I have two energetic kids, a Russell Terrier, and a playful Labrador of my own, so caring for animals is simply part of my everyday life.

“Fantastic sitter. Reliable, communicative, and incredibly caring. My dog was happy and well looked after the entire time. Received regular updates and photos which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Five stars without hesitation.”
“Makena is wonderful! She made me feel so at ease leaving my dog Julie with her. She was attentive to my pups needs and able to give her the flexibility to play with other dogs and be separated if she became too overwhelmed. I will be booking with her in the future again!”
“We left our senior pup with Matt for almost a week and felt so at ease! He asked lots of questions to make sure he could keep her routine as normal as possible and our girl looked like she had a great time. It was nice having peace of mind while being away - would definitely use again!”
“Carmen was great! Our puppy had a blast and you can tell she has nothing but love for animals. We got pictures and videos during our dogs stay and you could tell he was so relaxed! Next time we need to go out of town, we will definitely book with Carmen!”
“Ally is absolutely amazing! I had to take my dog to the emergency vet the week before I dropped him off for boarding and Ally was fantastic managing his needs from giving pills and monitoring wounds to keeping me updated.”
“Gina is a godsend! We have two very attached girls that are high energy and picky, and Gina's large fenced property and willingness to treat our girls as if they were her own are the precise reasons we would recommend her to anyone and will continue to only use her when we need someone trustworthy to take care of our girls while we are away. Gina's large fully fenced grassy yard was our dogs favorite, and she even offered toys, beds and personalized hands-on medication and hand feeding when either health or nerves were affecting our girls. They know here by name and aren't even nervous to go with her now, as they used to be when we used local kenneling facilities. We are so glad to have found her. Thanks for everything!”
“Paulina watched our dogs last minute and through difficult circumstances. She was understanding, personable, and willing to go above and beyond to help us. We’d highly recommend her for your pets.”
“Sidney was great with our puppy. She was responsive, friendly and warm. She communicated well and kept sending us pictures through the stay. She even took him on walks and followed all the guidelines/schedule perfectly. Would definitely 10/10 recommend her.”

“Michelle was wonderful! Our dog, Willy, was well cared for. The communication between us was great while we were gone as well. We will definitely be using her again wgen we can't bring our dogs with us!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Since I was a little kid I have always lived in a home with a lot of animals. To me a home isn’t complete without a dog in it. To be honest it’s hard for me to say the word, “dog” because my dogs are my family. I have raised my kids to not only love animals but to respect them. I do not have any small children in my home so you will not have to worry about any littles being too rough with your pet. I don’t leave my dogs in boarding kennels or get them professionally groomed. I do it at home, myself. Why? Because I’m the owner that is so nervous for my dog to be mistreated or not shown enough love. This is why I chose to be a dog sitter. I know there are other people that feel the same as I do and I wanted to be a loving safe home you can trust! That and well to be honest, it’s our way of always getting to have dogs in our home with us so it’s just as much of a treat for us as well! I recently said goodbye to my dear boy, Zeus. He was my big boy with a heart of pure gold. He gave my family and I 11 wonderful years that I am forever grateful for. I now have my OG, Duke. He was my 17 year old Yorkie and he owns a piece of my heart. I also have my newest addition, kiwi. She is my 4lb Yorkie and is just as sweet as her name. That being said, I have had Many many years of experience with all size dogs, Big to small, giant mastiffs all the way to tea cup breeds. Puppies to seniors. Our family spoils our dogs to the fullest and I would love to spoil your fur babies too! I only take on 1 dog at a time so that I can ensure your dog has all of my attention, will be safe from potential aggression from other animals they may not know and I have the ability to spoil your pup with all the love dedicated to just them and only them for anything they may need. They will have free ranged to the whole house, snuggle on furniture, sleep on beds, I have a fully fenced yard, toys, dog beds, walks, etc. I want to treat your pup like royalty. I am experienced in administering medication, accommodating any special dietary needs, particular treats. If your doggo likes to sleep with a heated blanket or be wrapped like a burrito in very specific way just to go to sleep every night (like my Zeus used to) well, I’m your person! Ha I know it all and nothing is silly or too much when it come to our fur babies! Trust me, I get it! Pictures, videos, etc, as much as you need daily! Take a breath knowing your pup is going to be Safe, loved, played with, spoiled and taken care of when they are here! I currently work part-time, can work mostly from home and make my own hours. This gives me the flexibility to be available with your fur baby for whatever he or she needs. I am available for sitting week days and weekends. My fully fenced back yard allows your fur baby to run free and be played with to get some energy out. If you prefer them to always be inside beside potty breaks, that works too. Whatever makes your pup more comfortable and happy!
