About: Dog care Experience 🐾 Caring for dogs has always been a meaningful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog and have spent years looking after pups of all sizes, personalities, and needs. As a dedicated dog lover, I treat every furry guest like one of my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. I do have 3 fur babies of my own. So with each new client we introduce 1 dog at a time and when I feel comfortable they will be all together under supervision of course. My home is truly a dog-loving environment. My fiancé is a mobile dog groomer with Snoqualmie Paws Mobile Dog Grooming, and together we share a passion for providing top-quality care. Our long-term goal is to expand into Snoqualmie Paws dog daycare and boarding as a natural extension of the grooming business. Playtime and activity are an essential part of every dog’s stay. Whether it’s zoomies in the yard, interactive play, or fun, energizing walks, I make sure each pup stays happy, stimulated, and engaged. I also have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs and those with special needs, including administering medications such as eye drops. I understand the importance of patience, gentleness, and attentiveness, especially for older pets who need a little extra comfort. With me, your dog will be in safe, loving hands—because they’re not just pets, they’re family ❤️ I’m a stay-at-home dog mom, which means I’m home full-time and able to provide constant care, attention, and supervision for your pup during daycare or boarding. I do share my home with my three fur babies. They’re friendly but can take a little time to warm up to new people and dogs. Because of this, I highly recommend a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure everyone feels comfortable and it’s a great fit for all. Creating a calm, safe, and loving environment is very important to me, and I take the time to ensure every dog feels secure and welcomed. Your pup will be treated like part of the family while they’re here 🐶❤️ Home & Care Details 🐾 I have a nice, fully fenced yard where your pup can safely play, explore, and burn off energy. My three fur babies are always around to help keep your dog active, social, and engaged throughout the day. Daily activity is a priority here—we’ll enjoy plenty of playtime in the yard along with one or two walks, depending on your dog’s needs and energy level. To help keep your pup comfortable and on their normal routine, I kindly ask that you: Pre-portion your dog’s food for their stay Include their usual feeding schedule Provide enough food for the entire visit Give clear, detailed instructions for any medications, if needed This helps me provide consistent, attentive care and ensures your dog feels right at home 🐶❤️ Also at drop off time I ask that you call or send me a message letting me know when you are 20 minutes away. When you arrive I will meet you and your fur baby on the front porch and I will take over care from there after you say good bye.

When my dog did act up, Amy had prompt communication with me as we figured out next steps. She did a great job with him in a hard situation. I'd recommend anyone to Amy - she loves dogs and has a great set up to host furry friends! Thank you!”
“Danika is a sweet lady that truly cares about the animals in her care. Which is a relief when leaving my baby. He thinks he's supposed to go everywhere with me but loves going to Danika so it eases him as well. Thank you Danika ❤️”

About: Hi there my name is Kelsey and I have centered my life around the health and well being of our furry friends. I spent 6 years working in pet insurance and have gained a lot of knowledge about how to create healthy and safe environments for our animals. The key is giving them time to warm up to a new environment, routine care and lots of affection. My own dog turns 15 this year and people still ask me if she is a puppy because of how active and happy she is around others. I always treat every animal as if they are my own and would be honored to do so for your pet too. I spend the majority of my time at home, hanging out in the backyard and have a pretty flexible schedule. We’d go outside at least 5-10 times a day, always early in the morning and right before bed. I have a fenced yard on over an acre of land and lots of non-harmful plants that my dogs loves to sniff around. When the dogs are outside I will be right there with them enjoying the afternoon.

About: I have had a few house sitting experiences in which I got to take care of cats and really enjoyed them. I have experience working with many aspects of cat life including litter boxes, feeding, playing, and of course cuddling. Cats are such great companions and I hope to gain more experience working with them in the future.

Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and care for their pets ranging from dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, guinea pigs, turtles, etc... I'm currently operating a pet services company; so all of my time is focused around pets and my calendar is scheduled around your pets and other's My family and I show lots of love and give lots of pets to any pups in our house. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup named Kirra to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate if your pet feels more comfortable that way

About: I have loved cats since I was a kid, despite most of my family is allergic to cats. Over the years, I have been entrusted to take care of my neighbor's 3 cats while they were out of town, which required me to feed, pick up after, and play with them. I look forward to adopting a cat of my own, but until then, I look forward to caring for yours!
About: I’ve had cats all my life and they truly are my favorite. The minute I moved out on my own I adopted a kitten & he’s my best friend. I have experience giving medication and I am a pro at cleaning litter boxes. I would love to come check in on your kitty!
“Mary was so great with our two labs, one of which is a 3 month old puppy. She is very timely, flexible, and attentive. We are so grateful to have found a reliable sitter and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Kacey is the best! She once again took amazing care of my two cats, Bruno and Kitty, while I was away. She came by twice a day and always went the extra mile—making sure Kitty actually ate and giving Bruno his favorite catnip time. I loved getting her detailed updates and adorable photos after each visit—they made it so easy to relax while I was away. When I got home, both cats were happy, calm, and clearly well-loved. I’m so grateful to have found such a kind, dependable sitter. Thank you again, Kacey!”

“Lexi and Victor were very easy going and responsive. We booked them so we could go hiking in Mount Rainier National Park for the day and it worked perfect. They were flexible and had great communication. Teddy had a great time.”
About: I grew up playing and taking care of my two dogs, feeding them, bathing them and loving them are some of my favorite and most cherished moments from my childhood. After many years of feeling the void of not having any pets around we recently adopted an absolutely adorable puppy (lab retriever mix) named Hershey. I also used to dog sit for my aunt’s senior dog (Lhasa apso) everytime they needed help. I’m a stay at home dog pawrent to my adorable puppy Hershey, usually home most of the time so your dog will be well taken care of. We have a fully fenced moderate sized backyard and also have an almost 8 month old very friendly chocolate lab retriever mixed puppy to keep you fur child company. You’ll get very frequent updates about your fur child.

“Nala had a great time spending two daycare days with Sean! She was well cared for, happy, and relaxed when I picked her up. I especially appreciated that he took her on a walk she loves getting outside and came home content both days. Sean was communicative and kind, and I’d absolutely book with him again. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have experience with daily care like feeding, walks, playtime, and following routines. As a teacher, I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to individual needs, which helps me care for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I treat every pet like my own and focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while keeping clear communication with owners. I work full-time as a teacher and am available for pet care after 3:15 PM on weekdays. I’m fully available in the evenings and can give pets my full attention once I’m out of school. I also have more flexibility on weekends and school breaks. I’m reliable about timing and will always communicate clearly if scheduling ever comes up. During summer hours I am very open! I don’t host pets in my home, but I’m happy to care for them in their own home or provide dog walks. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from the owner. Keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment is important to me, and I always treat clients’ homes with respect while providing regular updates and dependable care.
About: Hi, I’m Ardelia! As a lifelong pet lover, science nerd, a soccer coach, and a mom, I know that your pets aren't just animals—they are family. I understand the stress of finding someone you can trust with your "fur babies," and I am here to provide the peace of mind you need while you’re away. We have Luke, our sweet 6-year-old German Shepherd/Husky mix, and Gabe, our 10-year-old cat. Our home is a pet paradise! We have a large, fully fenced yard with professional turf, perfect for zoomies and safe outdoor play. Why choose me? Medical Experience: My senior cat, Gabe, is diabetic. I am fully comfortable and experienced in administering medications and monitoring special medical needs. Total Flexibility: Life happens! Whether it’s a last-minute business trip or a change in plans, I offer a flexible cancellation policy and welcome short-notice bookings. Active Lifestyle: When I’m not coaching on the soccer field, I’m hiking the beautiful PNW trails. If your dog loves to move, they’ve found the right sitter! A "Mom’s" Perspective: I treat every guest pet with the same love, routine, and attention I give my own kids and pets. I have a flexible work from home schedule, so I have plenty of time on weekdays and weekends to care for your fur babies. I set my own schedule so I can arrange my workday appointments accordingly around your pet's needs. For overnight or day visits, I have a fenced back yard with turf and two friendly pets to keep them company in my home. I will always treat your home and your fur babies with love and respect during drop-in and walking visits. Under my care, I will give your pets my sole attention and ensure they are happy and loved while you are away.
About: 2 Story Home, fully fenced & very safe back yard. I am married with a dog (Lab) of my own. I take pride in our home and would do the same with yours, I don't mind helping with chores if needed as well. Dogs are family to us; we wouldn't want it any other way. Your dog would be treated as one of our own. You can rest easy knowing your dog or cat is being very well taken care of. I am responsible, reliable and honest. I do not do Rover pet sitting for the money, I do it to help others and because I absolute love all animals and truly enjoy being around them and caring for them, all ages and breeds! I started Rover after we took a vacation and found out firsthand how hard it is to find truly reliable people to pet sit. It was an awful experience and I wanted to change that for others. We need more passionate & responsible people offering pet sitting and I figured I would be part of that change. I want to contribute to our community and also reduce the number of animals which end up in rescues or shelters. Sometimes this happens due to lack of available care. We have a fully fenced yard (actually double fenced), your dog can go out or come in as needed. If you prefer to have your dog crated, just let me know your preference and adjustments can be made. Whatever makes your baby feel at home.
About: With 5 years dog walking and 10 years of caring for my own families animals (chickens, dogs, and cats) I will treat your animals like my own. I have experience administering medications and can help reinforce training skills for younger and older animals. I currently work part time during the week. However my hours are flexible based on the frequency you need me to check in on the animal(s). I can do check ins through out the day and stay over night all nights of the week as needed. I will care for your pets like my own. I will come into your home and help your pets stick to their routine so you don’t have to worry about being away. I will send updates and pictures, so you can have peace of mind knowing your animal(s) are safe and cared for.

We have a 8 month old golden retriever puppy who we got when she was eight weeks old. She is fully crate, trained, and potty trained. She’s super sweet with everybody and loves all animals( even our cats)! We feel confident, taking care of a variety of pets and have experience in senior dog care, puppy stages, and everything in between!! as mentioned above I have a very flexible schedule ! I’m open most timings and most days! I love taking them on walks and playing with them! My puppy loves whenever anybody comes over!! I will try to make my schedule around the dog- trying to maintain a safe environment and keep them in their typical and normal routines !
About: My family has 4 chocolate labs that I grew up with and trained. I have a cat named Sunny who I’ve harness/leash trained. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10 and I would love to care for your animals! I am home from college for the summer and would love the chance to watch your furry friends! I have a flexible schedule so message me to check. I have a fenced in yard where I take care of my dogs at home! My cat stays inside and has many toys, a cat tree, etc. I take my families dogs on walks daily and provide stimulation for my cat because he isn’t allowed outside. I care for the safety of my animals very much and the same goes for all animals. Safety is my number one priority
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I share my home with two Huskies, Thor and Bird, along with two cats. Growing up around a wide variety of animals gave me hands-on experience with diverse breeds and temperaments. Additionally, my father is a veterinary surgeon with over 50 years of experience, which instilled in me a deep respect for animal health, safety, and proper care protocols from an early age. Highly flexible availability for in-home care, house sitting, and local meet-ups. While I cannot accommodate boarding in my own home due to my resident pets, I am fully available to travel to you. Message me directly to coordinate scheduling, logistics, and care instructions. For your convenience and peace of mind, I am available to provide care directly at your home or arrange meet-and-greets within the Maple Valley and Renton areas. To ensure a seamless experience, we can discuss specific scheduling, location details, and care instructions via Rover chat.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, and I focus on providing reliable, attentive care while owners are away. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal schedule so they feel secure and happy. My goal is always to make sure pets feel loved, safe, and well cared for. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it fits easily into my daily routine. I structure my schedule to make sure pets get consistent walks, meals, playtime, and plenty of attention. I understand how important routines are for pets, so I do my best to keep their schedule as close to normal as possible while their owners are away. When pets stay in my home, I treat them like part of the family. I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I provide a safe, comfortable environment where they get lots of attention and care. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pet is happy while they’re away.

My background includes working as a veterinary assistant, years of hands-on pet care experience and working as a K9 handler. I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines, and I strive to provide care that keeps them comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. I have experience with high energy, senior, special needs and more. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members. I provide dependable communication, plenty of photo updates, and attentive care for dogs, cats, and other household pets. My goal is simple: to treat your pets like they're my own and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your pets!

“Janessa and family took such great care of my dog for a month. My dog had such a great time playing with Janessa’s dogs in their spacious yard and her family gave her lots of love during the holidays. Communication was perfect—plenty of photos, videos and updates. We will definitely book again!”
“Jessica is great and very communicative about how everything is going! Even with a huge storm and power out, she still was letting me know everything was going well with Harper! I appreciate her taking care of Harper!!”
About: Dog care Experience 🐾 Caring for dogs has always been a meaningful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog and have spent years looking after pups of all sizes, personalities, and needs. As a dedicated dog lover, I treat every furry guest like one of my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. I do have 3 fur babies of my own. So with each new client we introduce 1 dog at a time and when I feel comfortable they will be all together under supervision of course. My home is truly a dog-loving environment. My fiancé is a mobile dog groomer with Snoqualmie Paws Mobile Dog Grooming, and together we share a passion for providing top-quality care. Our long-term goal is to expand into Snoqualmie Paws dog daycare and boarding as a natural extension of the grooming business. Playtime and activity are an essential part of every dog’s stay. Whether it’s zoomies in the yard, interactive play, or fun, energizing walks, I make sure each pup stays happy, stimulated, and engaged. I also have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs and those with special needs, including administering medications such as eye drops. I understand the importance of patience, gentleness, and attentiveness, especially for older pets who need a little extra comfort. With me, your dog will be in safe, loving hands—because they’re not just pets, they’re family ❤️ I’m a stay-at-home dog mom, which means I’m home full-time and able to provide constant care, attention, and supervision for your pup during daycare or boarding. I do share my home with my three fur babies. They’re friendly but can take a little time to warm up to new people and dogs. Because of this, I highly recommend a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure everyone feels comfortable and it’s a great fit for all. Creating a calm, safe, and loving environment is very important to me, and I take the time to ensure every dog feels secure and welcomed. Your pup will be treated like part of the family while they’re here 🐶❤️ Home & Care Details 🐾 I have a nice, fully fenced yard where your pup can safely play, explore, and burn off energy. My three fur babies are always around to help keep your dog active, social, and engaged throughout the day. Daily activity is a priority here—we’ll enjoy plenty of playtime in the yard along with one or two walks, depending on your dog’s needs and energy level. To help keep your pup comfortable and on their normal routine, I kindly ask that you: Pre-portion your dog’s food for their stay Include their usual feeding schedule Provide enough food for the entire visit Give clear, detailed instructions for any medications, if needed This helps me provide consistent, attentive care and ensures your dog feels right at home 🐶❤️ Also at drop off time I ask that you call or send me a message letting me know when you are 20 minutes away. When you arrive I will meet you and your fur baby on the front porch and I will take over care from there after you say good bye.

“Nikkole was a wonderful sitter to my 2 mini dachshunds. She has a large fenced yard where they loved to play when they were outdoors and a comfy couch where my girls loved to lounge with her. Nikkole is easy to talk to and she sent daily photos and updates and was quick to respond to questions. I’m very grateful to be able to trust her with my little ones and will definitely use her again when the time comes. Thanks Nikkole!”
“Charley was very happy to make new friends and play with the big dogs, and seemed very happy when we picked him up. Harlie sent plenty of pictures throughout the week. Harlie was also very flexible when we had to change our plans twice during the stay. I would feel very comfortable leaving Charley there again”
“As always, another super happy stay for pogo. Anji was super nice, made sure we got regular updates, and pogo is always super excited to go Anji's, which tells us she has nothing but fun there.”
“Alyssa jumped in while Dane was out of town and made Lobster’s stay feel like a mini vacation. Lobster came along with his buddy Ren and they were straight into dog park adventures, backyard playtime, and running around with Lady (their adora-pup) like old friends. Between hanging out with Alyssa and her two daughters and all the fun outside, the dogs were clearly living their best lives. The steady stream of happy photos made it obvious they were having a blast and being so well cared for. We live 35 mins away from Dane and Alyssa, and the distance didn't bother us because we know our pup will be in good hands. We will book again and again!”
“Diana was responsive and so great about sending pics and videos of our pup Calvin! Her setup was perfect for a highly energetic puppy, and he came home happy and healthy. We’d definitely book again!”
“Quang P. took wonderful care of Roman during his ten-day stay, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Roman was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We especially appreciated the consistent updates and the many photos — it gave us real peace of mind being able to see how well he was doing while we were away. It’s clear Quang is attentive, responsible, and genuinely cares about the animals in his care. Roman came home relaxed and in great spirits, which says everything. We are truly grateful and would absolutely trust Quang again in the future.”
