“Mary and Randy took excellent care of our dog! They were professional, friendly, and communicated clearly throughout our dog's stay. Their property is well-kept with great safety protocols, and our dog came home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. It felt like he had been staying with family, not just a sitter. Highly recommend! We will be back! Thank you!! 😊”
“Erik and Emily were great. My dog Schultz had a great time with their dogs he was well cared for they have a great backyard with lots of room to run and play. He didn’t have any problems adapting and was very happy. Highly recommend!”
“Araceli provided exceptional care for my two dogs. They were attentive to every detail of their routines, making sure both felt comfortable, safe, and well-loved while I was away. It was clear they truly care about animals, going above and beyond to ensure my dogs were happy and relaxed. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. I highly recommend Araceli to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“Brandi was amazing! Our dogs stayed with her for a week and were very well taken care of. She kept us updated with pictures and a check in each day. In every picture, our dogs looked so happy! Brandi handled our dog’s medication and their little quirks with ease. Drop off and pick up were easy. She really went above and beyond!”
“Lyubov, was very good taking care of my pug Rocco. I really appreciate all the videos and pictures sent during his stay. Her frenchies seem very friendly and definitely would book again. Thank you so much.”
“Our Shepherd mix was right at home with Hailey and her family. He got 24/7 care, family love and attention. Hailey was easy to communicate with and worked with our special food mix that needed to be refrigerated. Great property to roam in the yard and lots of area to run and play. We will definitely bring our dog back.”
“Carolyn was awesome. She kept.in touch with me and sent me tons of pics and videos of our Stella while we're gone on holiday. Stella had tons of fun with her and got walked and tons of attention. Can't recommend enough.”
“Todd was exceptional in taking care of our Ava! He made sure she was comfortable in his home prior to the booking and answered any questions we had promptly. He is very communicative as well and provided us plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. We're very thankful for Todd and would recommend him to anyone seeking pet-boarding services.”
“Our dog Rusty seemed to be very content and well cared for. Tony's place is a very nice country place, well off the road, with a large grassy area and lots of big firs. We will definitely ask Tony for his help with Rusty next time we can't take him with us.”
“Cynthia was absolutely amazing with Eddie! She was very communicative and made me feel very at ease with the drop off and pick ups. I recommend her for boarding and I'll be booking again I'm the future!”
“Chloe had a wonderful time at Steve's during our weekend trip away! It was really helpful to have a meet-and-greet with Steve before booking the first time. Steve made me feel comfortable knowing Chloe would be well taken care of during our trip. I loved all the photos of Chloe having a good time - it gave us peace of mind while we were away. It's easy to tell Steve truly cares about the pets in his care, which is so reassuring when you're leaving your furbaby with someone new. We will book Steve again for our next trip!”

“I can’t recommend Leah and Chris enough! They were so incredibly thoughtful in getting to know our dog, Indy, and her needs before her stay. They were also very easy to communicate with, so friendly and very accommodating. We received the most amazing pictures of her while we were gone and also updates about her days & how she was doing. We know she was so well cared for and can’t wait for her to spend time with them again!”
“Sam is my go-to Rover whenever I need help with Angel, and I can’t recommend her enough! She takes such amazing care of Angel, treating her like her own. When I travel, I’m always at ease knowing Angel is in great hands. I’ll always have nothing but great things to say about Sam. Thank you again, Sam!”
“They were amazing! They played with Koda and Ásia so much, keeping our babies entertained, comfortable, and spoiled with cuddles. They even got Koda his favorite ball to play with while he was there. Communication was fantastic throughout. We couldn’t recommend them more!”

“We are grateful to know that Alisha is available to provide care when we are away. We actually planned our last away day around her availability. So great to not have to worry about our dogs when we are away.”
About: I am 31 years old, pretty active. Dogs around me usually get what they want. I spoil them more than i spoil myself. They are family so I will treat them like family. I am a stay at home mom & I lam easy to get a hold of. If you want pictures everyday, i will provide you pictures everyday. I love hikes and going for walks. Let me know your needs and I will follow your rules. All I ask is that I meet you & your dog beforehand so we can make sure that your dog is okay with me & won’t think I’m a stranger just walking in the house. I am a huge animal lover! Can’t wait to meet you and the pup/pups! I have two dogs of my own that I adore! I’ve had them both since they were pups. They are my first kiddos. I take care of them daily. I follow all rules that are given to me. If they love all the pets then I will love them with all I got. If they love fetch, then I’ll throw the ball until they get tired.
About: Hi, I’m Kelley! I’m a professional dog trainer with over 10 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. My journey started early. I began working at a veterinary office at just 15 years old as a kennel technician and assistant, where I built a strong foundation in animal care and behavior. From there, I expanded into training and spent 5 years in Hawaii working as a private contracted dog trainer, gaining extensive experience with a wide range of dogs and client needs. I mainly train basic to advanced obedience and service dog training but also have experience with training hunting/bird dogs and protection work. In 2020, I founded my own dog training business in Oregon, where I now provide customized, results-driven training programs. I work with dogs weekly through private sessions, as well as structured board-and-train programs. I also travel locally and to surrounding areas to support clients and ensure training carries over into real-life environments. I recently moved up to the WA side in Kalama. My property is fully set up with dogs in mind. I have a secure, fully fenced yard and dedicated training areas equipped with a wide variety of professional training tools. Dogs in my care receive structured training, enrichment, and appropriate socialization based on their individual temperament, goals, and needs. Whether your dog needs basic obedience, behavior modification, or a safe and structured place to stay while you’re away, I provide a reliable, experienced, and attentive approach to their care. I treat every dog like my own, focusing on building confidence, clear communication, and lasting results. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine since I run my dog training business full-time. My days are structured around the dogs in my care, including scheduled training sessions, exercise, enrichment, and rest time. Each dog follows a consistent routine that’s tailored to their individual needs-this can include structured walks, obedience training, socialization (when appropriate), and downtime to ensure they’re not overstimulated. Because I work from home and on my property, I’m able to provide constant supervision and hands-on care throughout the day. On a weekly basis, I rotate between private training sessions, board-and-train dogs, and client visits, so I’m always actively working with dogs in a structured and intentional way. This setup allows me to give each dog consistent attention, routine, and progress while they’re in my care. Care varies depending on the service, but all pets receive structured, attentive, and individualized care. In my home, dogs follow a consistent daily routine that includes exercise, training, enrichment, and rest. Because of my background as a professional trainer, I incorporate structure and clear communication into everything I do—whether that’s reinforcing good manners, working on specific training goals, or simply maintaining a calm, balanced environment. Dogs have access to a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and are always supervised. Socialization is thoughtfully managed based on each dog’s temperament and comfort level. For board-and-train dogs, their stay includes daily hands-on training sessions tailored to their specific goals, along with structured routines that help build reliability and confidence. In clients’ homes, I aim to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible to reduce stress. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications if needed, and any household rules the dog is used to. I also reinforce any training the owner is working on to maintain consistency. Across all services, my priority is safety, clear communication, and making sure each dog feels secure, understood, and well cared for.
“I am very glad we booked Tanaisa to check in on our cats while we were out of town. She was dependable, communicative, and attentive. You can tell she is an animal lover based in the feedback and photos she provided me with daily. We will absolutely book with her again next time we need help with our pets.”

About: Currently a part-time nurse looking to make a few extra bucks taking care of your fur babies. I am a dog mom, myself, and would love to drop in and take care of them or help them get their daily exercise!! Working part time and schedule can vary. If my calendar says I’m unavailable, please don’t hesitate to still reach out — I may be able to work out a time on that day with you. I try to be as flexible as I can 🐾😊 I can either drop in to check on and feed your pets, or I stay and give them some attention and time to get their energy out. I can also take them out on walks around the neighborhood! I love mixing it up with running/walking, as tolerated by the pups. I have more experience with dogs than cats, but I’m happy to stop in and check on them!🐱

Mornings on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday I give my pets a lot of love & care. I let my puppy get his energy out. I remember to give my cat her snuggle time.

“Tina was fantastic with my 6 month old puppy, Luna. My dog is very shy and timid when meeting new people and in new environments. Tina was very understanding and knowledgeable on Luna’s temperament. Tina knew exactly what to do to make Luna feel more comfortable and relaxed. We will definitely use Tina again. Thank you Tina!”

“Just had a first daycare visit with Shell. Our shy, anxious dog came out of her shell (no pun intended) and had some good play with another one of the dogs. We appreciated how Shell did an observation first and really “got” Panda’s personality and unique challenges. We’ll be sending Panda for more play and boarding, for sure.”
“So appreciate the responsive care that Dana and Mark provide to Sully! Sully has been able to ease into interacting with new humans and other pups; it’s been good for him and so great for me!”

“Sadie made our first daycare experience so easy and comfortable. We will definitely take Ozzy again.

It was great to see the video and pictures from Ozzy’s day at daycare.”

About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats ever since I was very little and I have always loved taking care of them. I live at home with my parents and I have lots of experience watching our two dogs and cat for weeks at a time while they are traveling. (Note: neither my parents, or pets will be anywhere near your pets, as they are going to be in a separate part of the house. The house also has a huge backyard, sitting on over an acre with tall fences. I also keep plenty of toys on hand so you can be sure your pets are getting the love and care they deserve. I currently work from home and have a very flexible. schedule all throughout the weekdays and weekends so your pets will be cared for during their entire stay. I also do not leave our own pets unattended for more than a couple hours so the same can be expected for yours as well. Pets can expect over an acre of enclosed backyard, so plenty of room to run around and play as needed. Bathroom breaks will be given at least once every 1.5 hours - 2 hours and will be supervised the entire time as is standard with our own pups. We also have a cat and two small dogs in the house, but they will be upstairs and away from your pets during the visit.

About: **please note I am located in Winlock, WA. Rover is working on updating my information** Hello, My name is Kim! I have been pet sitting on and off for 18 years, and I've had dogs/cats and trained dogs for over 14 years now. I'vw been a veterinary technician and emergency veterinary technician for over 12 years. I currently work part time at SCVSEC. I am fear free certified. I have extensive experience caring for dogs with special needs, medical needs, senior dogs, and dogs that are on hospice care. I also have 10+ years experience in training dogs, from competitive obedience and agility, to service dogs, to working with fear aggressive dogs. I particularly love puppy development and training. I use positive reinforcement and have experience in clicker training, but I can cater to any training needs. I do offer bathing/grooming in my home for those that stay with us. I have experience in grooming and competitive conformation. I am only available for day care and boarding at my house, and I would love to schedule a meet and greet to see if we're a good match. We have a fully fenced yard. Our home houses 3 very socialized dogs, 2 dog friendly cats, 9 chickens (they have their own yard), and a chinchilla. Requirements: your pet MUST be up to date on age appropriate vaccines (DHPP, Lepto, Rabies). I do strongly recommend Bordetella and Influenza as well, due to recent outbreaks. Your pet must be crate trained, as I do not leave pets loose when I leave the house for safety reasons. For puppies, I will gladly work on their crate training. Pets are supervised 24/7, I have 2 cameras in the pet area for when I have to leave the house. I love to cater to the individual, so please tell me about your pet so I can make sure they have the best and most enjoyable stay! **For all overnight house sitting requests, due to circumstances I need to bring my 1 dog with me. He is well socialized with dogs and a polite house guest. I have lived in a dog daycare/boarding situation, so I am very used to keeping dogs separate and I am more than happy to keep him separate and he would stay in a crate. If you have any questions about this or about him, please feel free to ask! Normally I wouldn’t bring my personal dog, but due to several reasons we are a package deal.** I am home almost 24/7, aside from an occasional appointment, so my day revolves solely around caring for any and all animals. I have a very flexible routine, so I can cater specifically to clients needs and time frames. I treat every pet like they are our own and give them endless attention (I might spoil them a bit). I pay a lot of attention to instructions and I’m not afraid to ask questions. Making sure your pet is happy and comfortable while you are gone and giving exceptional care is my priority.
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated pet sitter who understands that every dog has unique needs, energy levels, and routines, and I take that seriously. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs since my teens, with experience across small and large breeds, senior dogs, and pets who require medication. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with more complex needs, including epilepsy, and I prioritize calm, attentive handling to keep them safe and supported. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” dogs, I focus on structured, engaging care that helps them feel balanced and happy while you’re away, whether its walks tailored to their energy level, mental enrichment and engagement during visits, consistent routines to support behavior, or lots of affection and attention. I’m very active and love being outdoors, so I’m happy to include longer walks, hikes, or more engaging outings if that’s something your dog enjoys. I can also do dog park visits if requested. Since I work a full time job from home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable, consistent care throughout the day. I can also send regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel completely at ease. I treat every pet like my own (I have 3 dogs!), with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care. I’d love to connect and see if I'd be a good fit for you and your pet! *Starting June 2026, for any house sitting requests I will be unable to stay over in the clients home. I am able to house sit any time during the day and stay with your pet as long or as little as needed, however, if you need me more than one day at a time, I will leave your place at night around 10pm and return in the morning around 630-7am.* I work a full time job from home, so I am willing and able to give your pet the attention it needs throughout the day. I am used to taking care of pets so following a routine comes easy for me. My work schedule is flexible, making it easy for me to adapt to whatever schedule you may need for your pet. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent experience for every pet. In your home, I follow all care instructions closely, so your pet stays comfortable and on their normal schedule. I stay aware on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and adjust care based on your dog’s energy level, temperament, and any medical needs. I also keep your home clean and secure so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: Certified dog trainer and behaviorist. Pet CPR certified Medication dispensing knowledge Grooming knowledge I own a 2 year old Goldendoodle, Winnie. I raised her while going to school for my certification from 12 weeks old. I practice positive reinforcement with balanced training. We work hard and play harder, and love an active lifestyle. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I intentionally keep my schedule open so I can provide consistent, attentive care. I enjoy staying busy and working with animals daily. Available 7 days a week, typically 9am–9pm. Weekend availability varies based on client needs. Animals in my care are treated like family, but with structure. I provide clear boundaries, routine, and guidance so pets feel secure and understood. Pets are given time to play, eat, potty, train, and rest. I incorporate basic manners and calm behavior into daily care so they’re not just being watched—they’re learning. I have a young child in the home, so I need to know ahead of time if a pet is sensitive or reactive around children. Requirements: Up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies) No intact dogs over 2 years old Must be safe to handle in a home environment I also use long leads when appropriate to safely allow freedom while maintaining control, which is helpful for recall and behavior work.
About: Hi all, it's Kate here! Life long animal lover. I've lived with dogs both big and small since I was born. I am a dog owner of 10 years, well versed with training puppies and caring for seniors. I have a ton of availability this summer as I just finished up my job teaching art to children. Over the last two years I've had extensive experience doing private child/animal care for both cats and dogs. Id like to take care of your pets ❤️ I've taken care of, lived with, and rescued turtles, rodents, fish, cats, dogs, etc! I'm in my mid twenties and very soft spoken and gentle. I currently live in Ridgefield. I love all animals, and would love to care for yours! I would care for them as if they were my own! My schedule is super flexible and open this summer, other than making art your pet will have my full love and attention! I can always make the time for you and your pet just let me know what you need. 💖 In my home I have a high need toy-sized Australian shepherd that is friendly with other animals, well loved and cared for. I live in a small gated community directly across from our fenced-in private dog park, so I can assure you that your pets will be safe in my care. I am capable of following any instructions given for care in your own home such as walking, feeding, playing, administering medicine, you name it! I have a pet hammock installed in the back seat of my car that I can buckle your pets harness into for safe transport as well :+) My policy is to always keep dogs leashed when not in a secure, fenced environment. I simply don't trust a dog's recall unless they are my own and I've personally trained them. If I observe anything concerning with a pet, I'll reach out to the owner right away to ensure it's not a serious issue. I know how important it is to be fully informed about my own pets, so I can provide immediate instructions and avoid unpleasant surprises later on
“Brie is the exact type of person you'd want to care for your pet. She is attentive and intuitive to our little guy's needs as they chang from day to day. Our dog is so much happier on the days he gets walks, play time, and snuggles from Brie. She is awesome!”

About: Hi my name is Sheldan! I’m a mom to 2 boys (5yr old & 3yr old) who have a lot of energy! I’m a stay at home mom so we are home all day every day. I’ve always grown up with animals, dogs, cats, chickens, and even a hedgehog. I’m a huge animal lover, if I could rescue every animal in the shelter, trust me I would! I was on Rover for a little bit back in the summer months of 2019 and 2020-2021 then life got a little busy so I took a break. Both my kids grew up around our German Shepherd who passed in early 2024. We love to be outside and take our daily walks or bike rides when it’s not too hot out! I’m energetic, have a bubbly and fun personality and super easy going, hopefully you’ll get to see that! I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty open and flexible! During the summer months we are very flexible and available. My home is currently baby proofed so we don’t have anything lying around that could be harmful to your pet. We do not have a fenced in yard.
About: I have grown up with animals and as I got older I have owned my own pets! I have been around a wide range of sizes from big to small. I’m not afraid of a challenge and I love furry faces:) I currently only work part time. I mostly work from the afternoon into the evening. I work about 25hrs a week and will be willing to share more if asked! I can’t care for pets in my home but in other peoples homes I would abide by the rules. If the animal had a schedule that needed to be followed, I would follow it! If the animal needs extra love, I’m more than happy to provide.

“Mary and Randy took excellent care of our dog! They were professional, friendly, and communicated clearly throughout our dog's stay. Their property is well-kept with great safety protocols, and our dog came home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. It felt like he had been staying with family, not just a sitter. Highly recommend! We will be back! Thank you!! 😊”
“Araceli provided exceptional care for my two dogs. They were attentive to every detail of their routines, making sure both felt comfortable, safe, and well-loved while I was away. It was clear they truly care about animals, going above and beyond to ensure my dogs were happy and relaxed. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. I highly recommend Araceli to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“Brandi was amazing! Our dogs stayed with her for a week and were very well taken care of. She kept us updated with pictures and a check in each day. In every picture, our dogs looked so happy! Brandi handled our dog’s medication and their little quirks with ease. Drop off and pick up were easy. She really went above and beyond!”
“Our Shepherd mix was right at home with Hailey and her family. He got 24/7 care, family love and attention. Hailey was easy to communicate with and worked with our special food mix that needed to be refrigerated. Great property to roam in the yard and lots of area to run and play. We will definitely bring our dog back.”
“Todd was exceptional in taking care of our Ava! He made sure she was comfortable in his home prior to the booking and answered any questions we had promptly. He is very communicative as well and provided us plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. We're very thankful for Todd and would recommend him to anyone seeking pet-boarding services.”
“Our dog Rusty seemed to be very content and well cared for. Tony's place is a very nice country place, well off the road, with a large grassy area and lots of big firs. We will definitely ask Tony for his help with Rusty next time we can't take him with us.”
“Cynthia was absolutely amazing with Eddie! She was very communicative and made me feel very at ease with the drop off and pick ups. I recommend her for boarding and I'll be booking again I'm the future!”
“Chloe had a wonderful time at Steve's during our weekend trip away! It was really helpful to have a meet-and-greet with Steve before booking the first time. Steve made me feel comfortable knowing Chloe would be well taken care of during our trip. I loved all the photos of Chloe having a good time - it gave us peace of mind while we were away. It's easy to tell Steve truly cares about the pets in his care, which is so reassuring when you're leaving your furbaby with someone new. We will book Steve again for our next trip!”
“Long overdue review... Wonderful home, children and dogs for Mia to have had plenty of fun with! Brianna was accommodating with our long stay request for Mia. Home away from home! Thank you for taking care of Mia for us!!!”
“I can’t recommend Leah and Chris enough! They were so incredibly thoughtful in getting to know our dog, Indy, and her needs before her stay. They were also very easy to communicate with, so friendly and very accommodating. We received the most amazing pictures of her while we were gone and also updates about her days & how she was doing. We know she was so well cared for and can’t wait for her to spend time with them again!”
“Sam is my go-to Rover whenever I need help with Angel, and I can’t recommend her enough! She takes such amazing care of Angel, treating her like her own. When I travel, I’m always at ease knowing Angel is in great hands. I’ll always have nothing but great things to say about Sam. Thank you again, Sam!”
“They were amazing! They played with Koda and Ásia so much, keeping our babies entertained, comfortable, and spoiled with cuddles. They even got Koda his favorite ball to play with while he was there. Communication was fantastic throughout. We couldn’t recommend them more!”
“The only reason I would not want to give her the best rating would be because I want her all to myself!!! I could not have wished for or dreamed of them getting the unbelievably wonderful care that they received. Going far beyond the call of duty is an understatement not to mentioned she was like finding a miracle in my time of need. I can't thank her enough.”
“I’m always amazed at how relaxed Elaine is with dogs and kids and family, each with their separate needs. She went above and beyond to get the right medication for my dogs itchies.”
About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats ever since I was very little and I have always loved taking care of them. I live at home with my parents and I have lots of experience watching our two dogs and cat for weeks at a time while they are traveling. (Note: neither my parents, or pets will be anywhere near your pets, as they are going to be in a separate part of the house. The house also has a huge backyard, sitting on over an acre with tall fences. I also keep plenty of toys on hand so you can be sure your pets are getting the love and care they deserve. I currently work from home and have a very flexible. schedule all throughout the weekdays and weekends so your pets will be cared for during their entire stay. I also do not leave our own pets unattended for more than a couple hours so the same can be expected for yours as well. Pets can expect over an acre of enclosed backyard, so plenty of room to run around and play as needed. Bathroom breaks will be given at least once every 1.5 hours - 2 hours and will be supervised the entire time as is standard with our own pups. We also have a cat and two small dogs in the house, but they will be upstairs and away from your pets during the visit.
“Our two dogs had a great weekend with Melissa! They loved being able to hang out outdoors in their own private space. They seemed very happy when we picked them up!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Matt. They were kind, attentive, and treated our dog like their own. From daily updates to thoughtful attention, everything was handled perfectly. It gave us total peace of mind while away.”
