Thank you Riitta! We'll be back!”

“Reagan is wonderful! While we were out of town for ten days, Reagan did two drop in visits a day with our two boy cats. She was so loving and attentive to them. She’s super detail oriented with their routines and was up for dealing with all their cat quirks. She played with them every visit and sent us the most fun pictures and updates each time! Both cats, even our very shy guy, clearly loved hanging out with her. We so appreciate Reagan’s help with our little guys. We will definitely book again!”

“This was our third time hiring Silvana to pet sit for us over the weekend. We couldn’t be happier with the way she takes care of our cat and pet ducks. She clearly follows all care directions, is very gentle and kind to our pets, and is dependable with great communication. Silvana consistently goes above and beyond. I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone!”

“Out of 10, Timea is easily a 100! Professional, prompt, and obviously cares deeply about the pets she's tasked to care for. After initial outreach she was quick to schedule a meet & greet and took copious notes to ensure she understood the job. She kept me updated with thorough Rover card (notes and pics) after every visit. She went above and beyond after a particularly bad weather storm knocked out power at our home to ensure my older cat, Oshi, was warm and comfortable. Pets love her and pet owners should look no further than Timea as their next pet sitter!”

“Hope did “drop in” visits for our 3 cats, twice a day for a week. She was absolutely fantastic, the cats loved her and looked forward to her visits. She was on time *every* visit, sent pictures and a detailed report for every visit. She correctly administered the medication and tried different foods to get our old kitty to eat. She sifted litters, played with lasers & wands, vacuumed, and cleaned up hair balls. This was challenging, and she did it all perfectly. We are so thankful to have Hope in our neighborhood and available for future drop in kitty care.”


“This was my first time using Rover and I was quite apprehensive. Lauren took great care of my two cats. I was surprised that Mochi, who is usually very shy, warmed up to Lauren very quickly. Next time I have to travel, I can rest easy that they will be in good hands. Highly recommended.”

“Hyeyoung K. was absolutely wonderful! She is so sweet and made our pups feel right at home! This was a new experience for Remi and Ruger. Hyeyoung K. was so pleasant and easy to talk to, which gave us peace of mind leaving them with her for the day. She also sent many adorable photos, videos and updates of our pups, which we loved and appreciated! In addition, she was very flexible and accomodating in regards to drop off and pickup, which was helpful. Her pup, Happy, is also sweet and enjoyed having a playdate. We highly recommend her and her family if you need someone to watch over your furry friends.”

Travis greeted us with a smile and took Milo inside to spend the day with him. I received frequent updates (including pics) which made me feel at ease knowing that my fur baby was in good hands. He cared for him like he was his own, he had full reign of all his favorite areas….sofa and on Travis’ lap :). When I came to pick him up he seemed very calm and happy. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend them for any of your needs.”

“This is the first time we left our 7 month old for dog care. Cathy and her family took good care of our pup. She sent pictures and videos during our pup stay with her. She is caring and reasonable rate. I recommend her for your pup care.”

I’ll be sure to send you lots of photos of your fur babies and support them in their stay however they need! I’m available for boarding after 5pm on Thursday till Monday evening! I can take them out as many times as they need and give them constant love and attention! Taking care of your fur baby will be my top priority!

My hope is to make them feel right at home and to make their time away from you as easy as possible.
“Maritza and her family were amazing with Nina. This is the first time we have left her at someone’s house and we could not be more pleased. I received tons of photos and video updates and I could tell she was having a ball and came home so happy. I can’t wait to have her stay with them again!”

“Thank you Minnie. For such loving care for our little girl. Hour long walks, allowing her to walk with your young daughter and to play with her. Our Courtney was in heaven and collapsed in tired bliss when she returned home. We are looking forward to our next, booked, daycare event. C U soon.”

“Juniper did a wonderful job with my dog Peach’s first walk! She took the time to meet with us a day beforehand to learn our routine and asked great questions. Her summary of the walk was well detailed, and she included some great pictures! Peach is nervous around strangers, and Juniper did a great job being aware and thoughtful of that. Overall Juniper was lovely to deal with and I feel great about trusting her regularly for walks with Peach.”

“Andi was extremely responsive and easy to work with for my last minute dog walking booking! Andi was great with my dog Maddy, and I would definitely book with Andi again.”

About: I love dogs and cats! Each one has their own personality and quirks. My goal is to build a trusting relationship with any animal in my care. It's such a joy when I can communicate with an animal! I will always do my best to keep your pets safe and happy. I know some pets are very energetic and love to play rough, while others just want to be snuggled and pet. Either way, I'm up for the job! I will ask lots of questions about your fur friend so we can get off on the right foot! I'm a stickler for cleaning up after dogs or cats in my care. I have no problem scooping kitty litter every day or picking up puppy packages in the park (or your yard, for that matter). My goal is to provide a wonderful experience for you and your pet!
About: I have experience with my current dog after going through several months of behavioral training as a puppy. I also have experience with senior dogs and cats growing up at my parents home. I also know how to administer medicine both orally and through ear medicine for cats. During the week, early mornings, late afternoons and evenings are best. On the weekends, late afternoons and evenings are best. With enough time, I can accommodate noon appointments. Feeding, outside time, cleaning litter box, and playing/exercise time will all be standard, but it depends on the needs of the cat. I can also administer medicine as well. If boarding at my own home, dogs will have a fenced yard for exercise.

“Marlene has been very consistent and flexible. I was hesitant to have someone walk my dog. But I can see how my dog gets super excited when, he sees her. She is now walking Iman on a weekly basis. And that gives me peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her 💯.”

About: I have a special place in my heart for dogs! I’ve been around dogs since I can remember. I have taken care of many animals for my own family and friends. I am also college athlete who loves to take dogs on walks as much as I can! I am currently working part time throughout the week but I am very flexible with those times so pet care can fit in very easily. I have a big fenced yard perfect for dogs to run and play! I live on a long street perfect for walks! I can also crate your pup if needed
“Our experience with Tiffany has been excellent. She is very punctual, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. We appreciate the regular updates and photos—it gives us a peace of mind during the day. Our dog Coco is anxious and gets nervous with when other dogs walk near by but with Tiffany, our dog has become less anxious and happy and well-exercised every time. A dependable and professional service. She is great with our dog. Highly recommend!”

Coming from a bad kennel experience during our last trip, this was our first time trying the whole Rover experience for our Lola and we are so glad we went with Todd. From the time we went to visit his house, him and his wife and daughter made sure to answer all of our questions. During our trip he was great on sending us pictures and giving status of the stay. We were a little hesitant at first and wondered if all the good reviews were true (well, they are!) Definitely recommend him, so much, our Lola will be spending time with him and his family again at the end of the month during our next trip. Thank you for everything Todd!”

He was super communicative ahead of time, was sending us plenty of updates while we were gone, and sent lots of photos. He also took Apollo on plenty of walks in some nice areas in Bothell. Apollo looked like he had the best time. We'd love to have him stay with Tyler again the next time we need a dog sitter.”
