“Elena is amazing. Great, constant communication and pictures. I had zero worries or complaints - never had to follow up or ask for anything. Will use her again when I travel. Savannah had a blast and was taken great care of.”
“Teri is wonderful with Louie. She sends us photos every day that often make us laugh because she understands his personality so well and he's sad to leave her place when we come get him. She's the best!”
“Morgan took our baby on a wonderful hike and out birdwatching. Nina is always so calm and relaxed whenever we pick her up, thank you so much for taking care of our baby!”
“I would recommend Marlene. It is clear that she has a heart for dogs and caring for them. I felt that my dog received quality care while with Marlene. I will definitely use her again.”
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life (farm animals included!) I currently own a corgi who is very loved and spoiled. I am an avid walker and would love to burn some energy on a walk with your pup! I work a full time job but have availability after work and also reliable transportation. My nights and weekends usually consist of snuggling up and reading a good book. My only responsibility is my cat Bleu. 😊 Your home is a safe space for your animals so I will be sure to adapt to their routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away.
“Mary was incredible with our boy Hardy. He has separation anxiety and we got regular pictures and communication about his well being. She took him on some amazing hikes and also kept him covered in blankets! She was extremely responsive and I can tell Hardy really enjoyed his time. Thanks Mary for making the holidays less stressful by taking such great care of our pup! Hardy will be booked again!!”
“Another great experience with Katie! The last couple of times I’ve gone to pick up my dog, she has jumped back on Katie’s couch when it’s time for us to go. Safe to say she is well cared for and enjoys her time with Katie!”
“AJ was great with our dog. He was very communicative. Sending videos and pictures was great. Was so much better for our dog to be in AJ’s home instead of boarding at a kennel. Will definitely use AJ again.”
“Tammy is very knowledgeable and has great experience with the dogs. She takes care of our dog and made sure he was adopting well to her dogs. I definitely recommend her for your dog stay at her place.”
“Rita was amazing - She was meticulous, organized and responsible. She gave us a great peace of mind, and provide us with detailed updates. I’m sure our pup had a safe and enjoyable time under her care, and we would definitely re-engage her for our future needs!”
“Juliette was amazing very friendly professional took great care of my little fur baby. Very quick response provided updates and pictures. I would definitely use her services again in the future if needed.”
“Shalini provided excellent care to our Frenchie on a recent weekend stay. She welcomed our girl into her family's home and sent us pictures and a video showing Ladybug had settled in right away and was having a good time. Thank you, Shalini for your kind care of our girl!”
“Jiahna is amazing. She is very sweet and quick with messages. She did her best to accommodate with pickup and drop off timings. Rusty was very happy there and was playing with 2 other dogs that kept him busy. I would love to keep Rusty with Jiahna again in future. 💜”
“Whatever I say,everything will be less for this stay of Hushku!Michelle and her daughter took extraordinary care for Hushku which was beyond our expectation ❤️We will definitely reach out to her whenever we plan for a vacation!Hushku will definitely miss you guys!”
About: Hi! My name is Lyandra, but you can call me Lyah. I was born in Brazil and am a U.S. resident. Caring for animals has always been a part of my life, and it’s truly my passion. Today, I share my home with two cats and one dog, who are the loves of my life. They remind me every day why I chose to dedicate my life to caring for animals. My love for pets became even stronger because of my Shih Tzu, Thor. I lost him six years ago, but he completely changed my life. His unconditional love inspired me to dedicate myself to caring for animals with even more compassion and purpose. I have his real paw print tattooed on my shoulder as a daily reminder that every pet deserves to be loved, cherished, and treated like family. Caring for other people’s pets is my way of honoring the legacy he left in my heart. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs in Brazil, in London while working with families in their homes, and now here in the United States. This international experience has allowed me to care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities while adapting to each family’s routine and needs. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community in Everett with a large, fully fenced dog park, a professional pet washing station, beautiful walking trails along the river, nearby parks, beaches, and hiking trails. Every outing is based on your dog’s personality, energy level, age, and your preferences. Whether your dog enjoys relaxing walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply cuddling at home, I customize their stay to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I provide frequent potty breaks, fresh water, daily walks, supervised playtime, photo and video updates, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. I am also Pet First Aid & CPR certified because your pet’s safety is my highest priority. If your dog is used to sleeping in bed, they’re more than welcome to sleep in bed with us. My husband and I always joke that our bed belongs more to the pets than it does to us! ❤️🐾 To me, pets are family. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, peaceful, and enriching environment where every dog feels completely at home while you’re away. I can’t wait to welcome your furry family member and care for them as if they were one of my own. I stay at home, your dog will enjoy companionship, personalized attention, and dedicated care throughout the day. I provide frequent potty breaks, daily walks, playtime, and a safe, supervised environment where your pet will never feel lonely. My home is shared with three friendly resident pets an 8 month old puppy who loves meeting new friends and two gentle cats. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I only accept dogs that are friendly with cats. Please note that I do not offer pick-up or drop-off services unless transportation is arranged through Uber or another ride service. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Although I live in an apartment, my community offers a large, fully fenced dog park, and we’re located right next to the river with beautiful walking paths. We also have easy access to Forest Park and nearby hiking trails, giving your dog plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor adventures. My apartment community also features a professional pet washing station, similar to a pet grooming salon. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly home where every dog is supervised and treated with the same love, patience, and care as if they were my own. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and having a wonderful time while you’re away.
“Stephanie is a wonderful lady and I am so glad to have found her. Stephanie & her husband took good care of our German Shepherd Dog for over a week and provided excellent care, clear communication, multiple daily pictures, asked questions, and went above and beyond to take good care of our Sweet Max. We look forward to booking with her again as she has been the best dog sitter we have found!”
“I was a last minute booking and Chelsea made it happen! My cat was a little stressed from the transition into a new space, but Chelsea was patient and updated me with photos. Would book again!”

“Zhen took wonderful care of our two kitties. She was always punctual, very communicative, and kept me updated the whole time. It gave me so much peace of mind while we were away.”
“Brittany was friendly, polite, and communicated quickly while taking care of our kitties. She even went the extra mile and cleaned up when one of them threw up while we were gone, and managed to get pics of both cats even though they're shy as can be around strangers. Thank you so much for making sure our babies were okay and giving us peace of mind!”
“Kearstin was amazing and helped us out last minute with cat sitting for our cat. She was responsive, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We really appreciated the updates and the care she gave our cat. Everything went smoothly, and we would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica helped me out over this July 4th holiday & I am so thankful! Her responses were quick, she is easy to communicate with, & my pups love her. I know this by seeing the photos she sent me. I will rebook with Jessica, anytime. Thank you Jessica!”
“Victoria is the best! She stopped by before we went out of town to meet us and Rufus (our cat). She sent the best pictures and even played with Rufus while we were gone. We gave her a key to our house which she left in a safe and secure place after she left. She’s our go to sitter moving forward and I’m excited to book her in the future.”
“Ashlee was great! She responded promptly when booking and was easy to communicate with to set times, and she provided great pictures and details from her visits with our cat Millie!”
“Excellent! First time Rover user and couldn't be more pleased! Marlene melted my worries away while out of town, providing pictures of my shy senior kitty. Thank you!”
“Kevin was an amazing petsitter again! He was again very easy to coordinate + communicate with! This sit included multiple hours of cat sitting and administering insulin injections into my diabetic cat. He also handled all litterboxes, taking out the trash multiple times, wet food that required instructions, probiotics, and other medications for two cats. He provided nice writeups after each sit and worked around my travel schedule. Would recommend him to others in the area!”
“Genevieve was awesome she was able to help me out last minute and was so sweet towards my cats. She provided cuddles, cleaned up messes, and excellent pet cat services. I will definitely recommend her!!”
“We were very anxious to leave our cat who has multiple medical needs - and finding Janice was a real luck! Finally, we were able to have peace of mind over our weekend trip, Janice took great care of our baby.”
“We were able to enjoy a few days away thanks to our new cat sitter, Logan. We can’t express how much it means to us - everything went as smoothly as possible. We had mentioned to her before our trip that we wouldn’t mind some text check-ins, and she gave us a full and detailed report after each visit! Every time a text would come through, it gave us the reassurance that our guys were happy and content, and probably weren’t missing us in the least! Thanks to Logan, our trip to the coast was a happy one, and we WILL be booking her amazing services again. Thank you Logan, and thank you Rover! 😼😺”
“Susan was amazing with our senior cat! She was right on time, super communicative, and sent us thoughtful daily updates. Our cat needs medication, and she handled it with ease and care. It gave us such peace of mind to know he was in good hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty. We will definitely be booking her again in the future—highly recommend Susan!”
“Jocelyn was absolutely a blessing. My dogs just adored her. She was so easy to book with. She took the most adorable pictures of them. I was missing the dogs so much and she gave me so much peace of mind. I can not recommend her enough!”
About: I've taken care of cats for many years. I've had cats of my own, and also befriended any neighborhood feline I could find! I'm highly experienced in both senior cat and kitten care. If your feline is extremely shy, I'll be patient and move slowly and quietly in their presence. If your cat is loud, mischievous, and a mastermind at manipulating a second dinner out of visitors, I can provide the cuddles, playtime, and firm love that they need! I'm used to high-maintenance pets and a wide variety of feline personalities. It would be a pleasure to care for your fuzzy family members!
“Michelle is a wonderful pet sitter who takes excellent care of our baby cat and two lizards! Right off the bat when we first met her we got an excellent first impression. She took notes when we went through all the details and would like to spend time trying out our security system disarm/arm process. We really appreciated it. Our cat was always afraid of anybody besides us. Michelle patiently gave her space and talked to her everyday. In the end, they made great progress. We would wholeheartedly recommend Michelle and look forward to working with Michelle again in the future!!”
“Halle was sweet, responsive and great with my cat Piña. I could tell she was happy when I got home (my cat lol). Halle sent pictures each day, which was very appreciated!”
“Punctual, efficient and trustworthy. I highly recommend Amanda and am always happy when I can book her service. She’s never seen my cat but my cat does appreciate her stopping by regularly to feed her.”

“Goose had a GREAT time with Elena and Klemheist. He came home a happy and sleepy puppy. Elena helped me out last minute after my previous sitter had to cancel and I could not be more thankful. I’ll definitely be using Elena next time I need doggy daycare or boarding for Goose.”
“Marlene is someone I trust to take good care of my dog. She took care of my sweet Potato for three days and he came home happy and tired from all the play with other dogs. It is nice to know he is in good hands with Marlene.”

“Having Jiahna care for Gideon has been a real pleasure. She was very helpful and flexible as we did a meet and greet and evaluated if Gideon would be a good fit. She took time to ask really good questions about Gideon and learn all she could so it's the better care for Gideon. From the get-go, Gideon loved being at her house and sharing time with her puppy. It was a good fit. I always knew that Jiahna had Gideon's best in mind, and I always got good reports at the end of the day. So very glad that I got to meet and have Gideon stay with Jiahna. I highly recommend her as a safe and professional Rover person for your canine needs. Gideon will miss her for sure and I have really appreciated the care and great connection that she showed in caring for Gideon. 💜🐕”
“Our dog had so much fun at daycare with Sarah!!! She sent us tons of pictures and videos of Ellie and made sure our pup had a safe, comfortable, and fun filled time. Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Logan is knowledgeable and patient with newcomers. Appropriate introductions made Sadie feel comfortable and safe. Pups are well cared for and given lots of love and attention.”
About: I have a genuine passion for learning about and understanding all types of animals. My experience in pet care comes from years of personally caring for my own pets, assisting friends and family, and volunteering in various animal care settings. This hands-on experience has deepened my knowledge and strengthened my commitment to providing attentive, compassionate care. Living with a high-maintenance Frenchie means my days revolve around his care—and if you have a Frenchie, you understand! I regularly clean his paws, wipe his face and bottom, and apply coconut oil to his facial wrinkles several times a day, along with moisturizing his coat for softness. I also provide him with tailored supplements and healthy vegetable treats to keep him happy and thriving. In my home or my client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment tailored to each pet’s needs. I follow their regular routines closely—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care like medications or grooming. I also keep pet areas clean, offer lots of affection and attention, and provide updates to ensure peace of mind for the pet parent. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or outdoor adventures, I treat every pet like part of the family.
“Muammer and his partner were so kind and welcoming. They took great care of bunny and bear (two Pomeranian puppies) sent multiple updates/ pictures and videos and when I picked the girls up they were so tired from a fun play day. We will definitely book again. Thank you both for taking such good care of our babies! 🥰😊”
About: In our previous home in Missouri my husband and I frequently pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors. We moved to Washington January of 2025 and have missed the furry friends we cared for there. I have experience with large and small dogs including some elderly and some very high energy. I’ve also looked after cats, individuals and larger groups including groups with various feeding needs. I work virtually and can be available most week days for daytime pet sitting in homes that have consistent internet access or drop ins a few times a day. On weekends my availability varies but I can typically plan for drop in and overnight care with at least 1 week notice. I am married and may request my spouse be allowed to stay with me or drop by in longer term sitting situations. Whether it’s a walk or a week together I’ll try to treat your pet with the same care and attention you would. Allowing you to feel comfortable while you are away. As a pet sitter I try not to disrupt your furry family member’s typical schedule as much as possible. Pet care is very individual so I try to conform to what that pet is familiar with to minimize anxiety for them, while making sure their basic needs are met.
“Since getting my pup Moosie 3 years ago, he's only ever stayed with one other sitter when I've was out of town. That regular sitter was celebrating a new baby this time though so I selected Mary's profile from the Rover options and I made a good choice. She was kind and responsive to my messages right away, and she sent updates and photos while my pup was with her. When I picked Moose up from his first daycare with Mary, it was obvious he had a great time with the other pups boarding with her, and he didn't want to leave. When we got home he passed out and slept for 4 straight hours! He was thoroughly exhausted! Thank you Mary for looking after my boy and showing him such a great time. See you in 2 weeks when Moosie returns to spend a few days with you!”
About: I will be providing a safe play haven for your bub while you are away! I grew up with dogs since birth. Raised 3 puppies, had 2 dogs who we cared for until they were 15 (familiar with administering medication). Did dog sitting my whole life for friends and family. I currently have a 3 year old Goldendoodle Rumi. He is very calm, gentle and does not play rough. He is a trained ESA and goes to work with my husband most days. If your pet doesn’t do well around other dogs, we can certainly accommodate for their needs. I am full time dog mom. My job is to care for your bub and their needs. Available all day for cuddles, love and lots of fun! I have a secure patio if they like bird watching or just sun bathing. Dogs are allowed on our furniture, I can take them for as many walks as they need, feed them at any intervals required, happy to raw feed, can administer medication and can also help with puppy training. They can be off leash/ not confined to a crate at home. I will only do leashed walks in our community park!
“Crystal provides a safe and happy place for my dogs. Obi and Haiku return tired and contented. They've had a fun day or afternoon playing with Crystal's dogs. Definitely recommend.”
“My pup Selah and I had a great experience with Stephanie. She is reliable, communicative, and took wonderful care of Selah. This was my first time having Selah stay in a sitter’s home, and Stephanie made the whole experience easy and reassuring. I received regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. It’s no surprise Stephanie has such great reviews—Selah came home happy and well cared for. I’m already looking forward to having my pup stay with her again. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy, and I highly recommend Stephanie’s services.”
About: I’ve always been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family because I genuinely love animals. From cats and dogs to birds and other unique pets, I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and care I give my own. 🐾💛 Im very flexible, i have no problem following your preferences or schedule. I can always adjust mine. Just give me some tips and tricks about your fury or feathery friends! My babies are spoiled! My birds have their own bedroom. My senior dog goes everywhere with me and her meals are prepped in the kitchen, everything is natural and healthy. I can include your little one/s as well if wanted!
“Wonderful sitters. They really worked at understanding and respecting Deja's sweet and spicy personality. Deja had a great time and I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care.”
“My dog Finn absolutely loves Viktoriya. She kept me updated throughout the day with LOTS of pictures and videos. He came back a happy and calm pooch after his daycare with her. ❤️ Thank you for taking such good care of my baby.”
“Melissa is hands-down the best person to care for your animals. She watches my 6 month old puppy weekly for my in office day, and my mind is always at ease when she’s watching Finn. She provides detailed updates regarding his behavior on walks, and pays special attention to him as he has a knack for eating anything that crosses his path. I honestly couldn’t recommend Melissa enough - you will not be disappointed!”

“Adam is fantastic! He's reliable and a quick to respond to messages and requests. He quickly learned my dog's favorite spots in the neighborhood and let's him watch his squirrel friends. He provides reports and pictures. After a long walk with Adam, my dog is ready to nap until I get home from work. Totally recommend Adam!”
“I appreciate Mishie's flexibility: She is new to us and was not planning on starting for several more weeks with my pup but I picked up extra shift and Mishie was available with a little rearranging of the day she made sure my Bella had a good walk and some attention to break up her day while I was at work. Thank you for taking the time and the care for put little velociraptor.”
About: Licensed & Insured dog walking business, run by pet CPR & first-aid certified dog daycare professionals. We practice polite leash manners using positive reinforcement only! We have experience managing low to moderate reactivity and helping shy and anxious pups gain confidence. While we are not certified trainers ourselves, we do work with them regularly and have learned a lot from watching them. Our primary goal is making every walk a joyful and enriching experience for every dog in our care 💜 We are a relatively new business, so have lots of availability currently, but we are growing quickly and that won't be true forever. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out. We can't wait to strut with your pup! Pet care is my life and my joy! I work 5 days a week at a wonderful dog daycare with my business partner, and we have very different schedules so we can accommodate morning, midday, or afternoon walks, no matter the day. We have enough regular business that we have experienced just about anything a walk around the neighborhood can throw at us. For most walks and drop-in visits, we want to maximize the time your dog spends outside. We are pretty quick to get harnesses and jackets on so we can get out the door. Locking the door behind us is part of the routine so you know your home is safe even when we are out on a walk. We like to know where cleaning supplies are located, so we can get accidents or spills cleaned up. We are happy to refresh your pet's water bowl after the walk, feed them a quick lunch/treat, or get in some play time or snuggles on the couch! We do not enter rooms without permission and are always respectful of your things.
About: I have been caring for dogs since 2016, gaining years of hands-on experience and developing a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and well-being. I hold a special place in my heart for senior dogs and am deeply committed to providing them with comfort and a loving forever home. In 2020, I rescued my beloved Annie, who became an irreplaceable part of my life. Earlier this year, she sadly crossed the rainbow bridge, leaving behind a legacy of unconditional love and companionship that continues to inspire my dedication to dog care.I take great pride in being a responsible, attentive, and compassionate caretaker. My goal is to ensure that every dog in my care feels safe, loved, accepted, and well looked after, especially during times when their owners are unable to be present. Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and well-being are always my highest priorities. 🐾 I work full time; however, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to dedicate time, attention and care to your furry friend. I am available to take your friend on regular walks, provide drop-in visits, and closely monitor their well-being when you are unable to do so. My priority is to ensure that your pet remains comfortable, safe, and well cared for throughout the day, receiving the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I live in a well-maintained apartment that has been fully dog-proofed to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for furry friends. The space features large open windows and skylights that allow an abundance of natural sunlight to fill the home, making it an ideal setting for dogs who enjoy relaxing and sunbathing as my own Annie once did. I also have a large crate available for dogs who are crate trained and find comfort in it. Dogs are welcome on the couch, as I believe they should feel at home, relaxed, and included during their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, secure, and welcoming environment where your dog can feel comfortable and cared for at all times.
“My fur baies loved Sara! She took the time to get to know them and gave them extra loving while I was away. Sara frequently sent pics and updates during her visits. Definitely booking with Sara again 🙂!!”
About: 2026 update. My lap is nearly always occupied by an 11 year old black cat named Darth Vader. He is bold and social with people, cats, and dogs. Then theres our oldest, Mimi, a 13 year old black cat who is much more timid. Thumbs, our polydactyl calico floof is 6 years old now. Thumbs also hides out often. Both girls have come out of their hidden spots once used to guests. I’ve been around animals as long as I can remember. For many years I had large dogs, pitbulls and mixes. Most of my pets have started off as rescues, but all became loved family members. Our dogs have all crossed the rainbow bridge, but that didn’t remove my talent, passion and care with canines. I currently work part time in Mukilteo. My profession will take priority for roughly 6 hours a week. I do not work overtime, nor on weekends. This seems like a strange question. I care for my pets by feeding them, making sure they have water, cuddling and loving them, walks, and sometimes just naps together.
“Cedric did a wonderful job with my nervous Cattle Dog and she warmed up to him quickly which is not common! He is kind and considerate and trustworthy and I look forward to having him walk Misty again soon!”
“Logan has been walking my strong and sweet teenage pittie boy for the last couple of weeks. I use him for dog/breed education and of course, I adore him. So I am picky. I am thoroughly impressed with Logan. It is evident that she is familiar with dogs, their behavior and training. She is consistent, patient, very communicative, and passionate about taking care of the pups in her care. I would definitely recommend her. It provides significant comfort to know your pet is in good hands.”
“Jocelyn is so great with our dog! Our lab has some funny habits, so it’s always great to find a match that works so well. She came a day early for a meet and greet, was on time and had great walks with our girl. Jocelyn was always very communicative as well, which we appreciated very much. Can’t wait to book more walks in the future! Highly recommended!”
“Knox loves Hallie! I was looking for a sitter and interviewing folks, but Knox was not having it or picking anybody until Hallie came along. He gets really excited when she pulls up and comes home a happy hound. She’s on time, responsive and even walked in the pouring rain for an hour without a coat. Will definitely keep Hallie around for walks, and can rest easy knowing he’ll be in good hands when I am on vacay. Thanks Hallie!”
About: I’ve had dogs small and large since I was 12. From Chihuahuas to a German Shepherd. I have experience taking care of and walking dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’d love to take your dog or dog(s) for a lovely walk or drop by to check in on them while you’re out for the day. I currently work from home and have the company of my two dogs, Sol (a very dog friendly terrier mix rescue) and King (a sweet pitbull brindle mix rescue). With summer coming to a close I can walk dogs at mostly anytime of the day. I currently do not offer in home doggy day care or boarding, but can work with you for drop ins. I work from home most days with a flexible schedule so I can make mostly any time work for a drop in!
About: I had to two dogs growing up being a military dependent. They were so well behaved and friendly I was constantly being asked to help out with rowdy dogs that needed long walks. Its no secret really, dogs have a lot of energy and they just need to play and play and play! I'm running my own business from home: fortune telling and selling homemade trinkets on the internet, so I have no restrictions on where I can do that work. Caring for pets and going on walks are no problem on my schedule. I love in a house with two cats (and old timer and a new kitten) and a dog that likes to stay in her room. They are free to roam, but mostly I create a chill environment for them to chill in. Breakfast and suppers are usually at scheduled times. One of the cats likes to sneak outside, so we have to be very careful when opening the door. The dog is walked for at least 30 mins twice a day
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life (farm animals included!) I currently own a corgi who is very loved and spoiled. I am an avid walker and would love to burn some energy on a walk with your pup! I work a full time job but have availability after work and also reliable transportation. My nights and weekends usually consist of snuggling up and reading a good book. My only responsibility is my cat Bleu. 😊 Your home is a safe space for your animals so I will be sure to adapt to their routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’ve had a passion for animal care since I was small. I have 3 of my own and have gained more knowledge from working in a kennel environment. I do currently have a 8-4 job throughout the week so I would prefer if drop offs/pick ups were between 7am-7:30am or after 4:30pm and on. I love taking care of dogs that I will do it outside of my employment which also entails taking care of dogs since I work in a boarding facility. I care for pets like if they were my own pets. Also following directions that the owner may have, and giving updates whether it’s a message or a photo to give the owner peace of mind while they are away.
About: I have a genuine passion for learning about and understanding all types of animals. My experience in pet care comes from years of personally caring for my own pets, assisting friends and family, and volunteering in various animal care settings. This hands-on experience has deepened my knowledge and strengthened my commitment to providing attentive, compassionate care. Living with a high-maintenance Frenchie means my days revolve around his care—and if you have a Frenchie, you understand! I regularly clean his paws, wipe his face and bottom, and apply coconut oil to his facial wrinkles several times a day, along with moisturizing his coat for softness. I also provide him with tailored supplements and healthy vegetable treats to keep him happy and thriving. In my home or my client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment tailored to each pet’s needs. I follow their regular routines closely—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care like medications or grooming. I also keep pet areas clean, offer lots of affection and attention, and provide updates to ensure peace of mind for the pet parent. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or outdoor adventures, I treat every pet like part of the family.

“Mary was incredible with our boy Hardy. He has separation anxiety and we got regular pictures and communication about his well being. She took him on some amazing hikes and also kept him covered in blankets! She was extremely responsive and I can tell Hardy really enjoyed his time. Thanks Mary for making the holidays less stressful by taking such great care of our pup! Hardy will be booked again!!”
“AJ was great with our dog. He was very communicative. Sending videos and pictures was great. Was so much better for our dog to be in AJ’s home instead of boarding at a kennel. Will definitely use AJ again.”
“Tammy is very knowledgeable and has great experience with the dogs. She takes care of our dog and made sure he was adopting well to her dogs. I definitely recommend her for your dog stay at her place.”
“Juliette was amazing very friendly professional took great care of my little fur baby. Very quick response provided updates and pictures. I would definitely use her services again in the future if needed.”
“Jiahna is amazing. She is very sweet and quick with messages. She did her best to accommodate with pickup and drop off timings. Rusty was very happy there and was playing with 2 other dogs that kept him busy. I would love to keep Rusty with Jiahna again in future. 💜”
About: Hi! My name is Lyandra, but you can call me Lyah. I was born in Brazil and am a U.S. resident. Caring for animals has always been a part of my life, and it’s truly my passion. Today, I share my home with two cats and one dog, who are the loves of my life. They remind me every day why I chose to dedicate my life to caring for animals. My love for pets became even stronger because of my Shih Tzu, Thor. I lost him six years ago, but he completely changed my life. His unconditional love inspired me to dedicate myself to caring for animals with even more compassion and purpose. I have his real paw print tattooed on my shoulder as a daily reminder that every pet deserves to be loved, cherished, and treated like family. Caring for other people’s pets is my way of honoring the legacy he left in my heart. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs in Brazil, in London while working with families in their homes, and now here in the United States. This international experience has allowed me to care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities while adapting to each family’s routine and needs. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community in Everett with a large, fully fenced dog park, a professional pet washing station, beautiful walking trails along the river, nearby parks, beaches, and hiking trails. Every outing is based on your dog’s personality, energy level, age, and your preferences. Whether your dog enjoys relaxing walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply cuddling at home, I customize their stay to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I provide frequent potty breaks, fresh water, daily walks, supervised playtime, photo and video updates, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. I am also Pet First Aid & CPR certified because your pet’s safety is my highest priority. If your dog is used to sleeping in bed, they’re more than welcome to sleep in bed with us. My husband and I always joke that our bed belongs more to the pets than it does to us! ❤️🐾 To me, pets are family. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, peaceful, and enriching environment where every dog feels completely at home while you’re away. I can’t wait to welcome your furry family member and care for them as if they were one of my own. I stay at home, your dog will enjoy companionship, personalized attention, and dedicated care throughout the day. I provide frequent potty breaks, daily walks, playtime, and a safe, supervised environment where your pet will never feel lonely. My home is shared with three friendly resident pets an 8 month old puppy who loves meeting new friends and two gentle cats. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I only accept dogs that are friendly with cats. Please note that I do not offer pick-up or drop-off services unless transportation is arranged through Uber or another ride service. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Although I live in an apartment, my community offers a large, fully fenced dog park, and we’re located right next to the river with beautiful walking paths. We also have easy access to Forest Park and nearby hiking trails, giving your dog plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor adventures. My apartment community also features a professional pet washing station, similar to a pet grooming salon. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly home where every dog is supervised and treated with the same love, patience, and care as if they were my own. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and having a wonderful time while you’re away.
“Stephanie is a wonderful lady and I am so glad to have found her. Stephanie & her husband took good care of our German Shepherd Dog for over a week and provided excellent care, clear communication, multiple daily pictures, asked questions, and went above and beyond to take good care of our Sweet Max. We look forward to booking with her again as she has been the best dog sitter we have found!”
“Deangelo watched my dog for a night last minute and was extremely responsive and kind! Sent lots of pictures and took very good care of him. Would definitely recommend!”
“This is my second time boarding my beagle, Peaches, with Mounica & her family—she absolutely loves it! From the homemade meal toppers to the consistent updates and videos, Mounica treats Peaches as her own and I am truly thankful to for the continued love demonstrated to my beag.”
“Shay did a great job with our 2 little girls. She kept in touch with good communication and pictures to let us know that our pups were doing well. She made sure they were safe and loved on. It was our first time using Rover, but she calmed our nerves and we would definitely have her watch out fur babies in the future.”
“Allison was great! She is so kind and was very patient with my Trigger and his anxiety and sent updates with photos throughout the time he was with her. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Our pet Trigg had a great time with Shaunette and her dog. She took great care of him and shared photos and videos regularly. We strongly recommend sitting your pet with her!”
