“We had an amazing experience with Leslie. She is so professional and caring. She treated our pup like her own by spoiling him with car rides to the park, walks, treats, and toys. She kept us updated with pictures and videos. We felt confident he was receiving attention and care while we were away on vacation for a week. We cannot recommend Leslie enough!!”
“Alexis does the best job with our 9mo old German shepherd/lab mix. He loves going there and she takes such good care of him. We get pics and updates throughout the week and she is very accommodating for his special diet. She is easy to coordinate for pick up and drop off. This is the second time we’ve used her and we will use her again.”
“Our dog Poppie had a great stay with Lori. She is kind and has a wonderful, cozy home. Excellent communication and loved the updates. Pop came home happy and relaxed (a big sign of a happy stay for her!)”
“Excellent dog care. We’re glad our first time using this service was this good. My pet is not used to being around other dogs, and for his first time it was awesome. Very professional :)”
“Rebecca was a dream come true! We always worry about our dog when he’s being watched by other people, but this was the first time I was truly at ease leaving him with someone new. I fully believe he had more fun than we did while we were away! She took him for walks every day, played ball with him, and made sure he had all the snuggles he wanted. She even let him play in the water during one of their hikes, which is the only thing he loves as much as his ball! We were updated daily on how he was doing and I looked forward to the photos of his adventures. The only reason I’m hesitant to leave a review is because we want her to be available for the next time we travel! Choosing her to watch you dog is a no brainer and we are so lucky to have found her!”
“John did a great job boarding our cat! He was very flexible and understanding about last minute plan changes. He sent daily pics and updates on our cat. I was also impressed by how clean/neat he keeps his place! He's nice and strikes me as a responsible guy. Would definitely recommend and we will be rebooking with him!”
“Part of me wants to write a horrible review so we can keep Jeanne to ourselves, but here’s the truth: I literally can’t find enough amazing things to say about Jeanne—she is the BEST! We have two dogs (~2 y/o) they absolutely loved their stay with Jeanne—and we loved knowing they were in good hands. Jeanne is really great with dogs (and people), has an awesome backyard space, and is a great communicator. She’s quick to respond to messages, sent pictures of the dogs playing, and took amazing care of them. When we picked them up they were tired for two days! Will 100% book with her again.”
“Cheryl is a very kind and caring sitter! Our 5lb Yorkie enjoys staying with her and her dog, Lola. She’s professional, communicates quickly, and is flexible. She also makes a point of asking about all the details for care, feeding, and what would make your pet most comfortable. We will definitely use her again!”
“Katie is fantastic! She took such great care of our pup, while we were out of town. Franki became best buddies with Zoey, Katie's pug, and felt at home. Katie will definitely be our go to for future pet sitting. Thank you Katie!”
“Anna was so wonderful with my baby boy Blue! She was very communicative and sent me pictures throughout his day. I knew my boy was feeling safe in the environment. Her dogs are very friendly! Anyone who’s looking for a responsive caregiver please reach out to Anna!”
“Bryan and Peggy are AWESOME! Highly highly recommend them. Had my dog over there for a week and Sushi had such a great time, I can see how much she loved them both. I have another trip planned already and am excited for Sushi to get a vacation again!”
“Theresa did a great job taking care of my pup, and kept me updated everyday during our time out of town. We felt our dog was in great hands, and appreciated the way she cared for our dog!”
“It was my first time using Rover, and I could tell my dog enjoyed staying with Chuk. She sent daily updates and was responsive to all my questions. I had to drop my dog off early in the morning and pick her up late at night, which can be challenging, but she was incredibly flexible with the timing. Thank you so much!”
“Suk and her family took such great care of Bobo! They gave Bobo so much love and attention! I could tell he really enjoyed his visit! Will definitely be booking Suk again! Thank you!”
“Chris is an excellent host & a great guy. Just by talking to him, you'll come to learn the kind of observation he makes about dogs & level of care he provides. He shared good feedback about our dog and gave me a couple of tips/ideas through our conversations and I intend to make those happen. He also sent photos every day with small and funny messages to go with; which made the kids happy while our family was away on a trip. If you're reading these reviews and considering Chris, we highly recommend him! Thanks, Chris for taking care of Rubble!”

“Courtney was the best sitter to our two cats! She was communicative, friendly, helpful, and truly went above and beyond with her visits. We would book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Ardelle did a fantastic job. My brave kitty made ready friends with her, and she took the time to take pictures of my shy guy, too. It was a great relief to know they were well cared for while I was away.”
“Lora Renee took great care of our cat! He was diagnosed with Lymphoma 2 months ago and we were hesitant to leave him, but Lora Renee immediately put us at ease. We felt very comfortable having her in our home.”
About: I worked at a boarding business for cats and dogs and was around many different breeds, sizes, and ages of cats. In this job I had to clean out their litter box, feed them their desired food, and also give medicine to the ones that needed it. I also had to play and cuddle and spend time with each cat during a shift. I have always grown up around cats, my first ever pet was a cat, and I own a cat now as well. I can pick up on their moods fairly quickly and know basic knowledge of cats health.
“Abigail took great care of our cat, Tony! We were away for six days and knew he was in great hands :) she was on time, gave us great updates each time, and sent the cutest pictures of Tony after each visit!!”
“Lindsay was amazing! She took notes at the meet and greet for some slightly complicated feeding instructions, and it was a huge plus that she’s such a good photographer of our cats! Our shyest cat flopped on the ground during her last visit, which is a very good sign that she trusts her! Will definitely use Lindsay again if she’s available!”
“Our kitties were well taken care of and we felt so much better about being away knowing Scarlett was checking in on them. She sent us photos every visit of them so we knew they were happy! I'd recommend her to anyone needing care for their animals!”
“Elizabeth is such a kind human and went above and behind to take care of our two kitties & home! I would highly recommend booking with her and will definitely use her in the future :)”
“Mindy is great! She is a cat whisperer and our cat loved her from the start! Friendly, punctual, responsive and helpful. Sent us picture updates after every visit. Will hire her again.”
“Gianna was very helpful in a last-minute request for our 4 cats, including one who requires inhaler and medicine administration. She provided thorough updates and shared pictures of all four (even the hard to find ones). For disclosure, I am a Rover employee.”
“We really love having Amanda over to take care of our cats. They enjoy her company and we know they’re well taken care of! She does a great job with them, and we’re happy to have her come back!”

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 owned cats my entire life and currently own a 1 year old cat. I have fostered kittens before. I can administer oral medications, am good at cleaning up after cats (vomit, urine, etc.), and have taken care of a variety of ages (kittens, adults, seniors).
About: Hi! I have a deep love for all types of cats and their different personalities. I have experience taking care of friends and neighbors cats, currently, and as a kid. I would love to help you and your kitty in any way that I can whether that be snuggles, playing with their favorite toy, providing company, feeding and refilling water bowls and I can deep clean litter boxes too.

“Eleena was great! I had a last minute work trip and Eleena was gracious enough to work with me on last minute requests for two weeks. My kitties loved her, even the skittish one! Will definitely request her next time.”
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.

“Jessica took great care of Butters. it was good for him to socialize with Cleo as well. He was happy and tired when he returned home. The whole process was very smooth and she kept us informed and sent pictures throughout the day”
“Vanessa is awesome. She was so loving with Riley and sent pictures and updates throughout. As soon as I met her I could tell that she would take great care... extremely warm and kind. I felt totally comfortable with her as Riley's sitter!”
“Jacklyn was great! Sent lots of (very cute!) pictures, walked McCoy, and made sure he got along with her own dog. McCoy was always happy to see her (and her dog) when we dropped him off. Jacklyn was also very responsive to us (e.g. when we had to modify our arrival/pick up time) which made our lives very easy.”
“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.”
“Amanda is the absolute best! We had something pop up late and she took in our Indy for daycare twice this week - and he came home happy and exhausted. ☺️ Thank you for everything!!”
“Butters came back happy and tired. They kept us informed with a lot of pictures and videos. They had multiple dogs at the place which i think makes it fun ! they took good care of him”
“Anji was able to watch our dogs on short notice. She was easy to communicate with and welcome our very energetic dogs into her home without any problems. Dogs were well cared for and seemed to enjoy their time. Thank you, Anji!”
“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.”
“Jaime has a very kind personality and is very easy to work with. She is good with communication and sent me photo updates of my dog! Backpack looked like he was having a blast playing in the backyard! She was also flexible when I had a change in plans during the day and had to change my pickup time. Overall, it was a good experience, but most importantly, when I went to pick up Backpack, he was just as happy and healthy as when I left him. That's what really matters to me. Thanks for watching my pup!”
“Cheri has watched our pup twice and both times he’s come home content and ready for a little shut eye - it must be the nice, long walk in the forest. :) … Thank you for taking care of our somewhat anxious, excitable pup and for the excellent communication. Looking forward to more stays!!”
“Oscar had a wonderful day with Carol! He fell asleep in the car on the way home. Carol was warm and welcoming, and she treated Oscar just like one of her own. She had such kind words to share with us about his disposition which we were thankful to hear. Thanks so much!”
“Kay was absolutely wonderful with Chappy! She was very professional, and the entire drop-off and pick-up process was smooth and easy. When Chappy came home, he was happy, relaxed, and completely himself. It was clear he had been well cared for. From the updates, I could also see that he looked comfortable and content during his stay, and he had a great time interacting with the other dogs. I really appreciated the care and attention Kay gave him, and I would absolutely trust her with Chappy again. Highly recommend!”
“If I could give Manish 6 stars I would! He agreed to watch my two Malinois last minute, one of whom is a bit reactive. He prioritized a meet’n’greet to make sure all dogs felt comfortable; I was at ease instantly seeing him work the dogs through calming exercises to get to know each other. My reactive pup calmed down within minutes and ended up having a great time with his dog, Odin. He sent photos during their doggy day care visit and the pups came home happy and tired. Definitely recommend, I will book again!”
“Maggie loves coming to Madeline's house. Madeline is quick to answer messages and extremely sweet. Maggie comes home exhausted even though there's no other dogs there when she is there. It means that they're spending quality time with her and that means a lot to me. I'm grateful for Madeline and her home and her sweet family”
“Silvana is incredible. She took care of our 5 month old pup. He gave her kisses when he left. Silvana cares so much about dogs and I can tell how much she cared about rupee. Silvana made me feel so comfortable on our trip.”
“Judy was great with my nervous dog who was dropped off for doggy day care for the first time. She was very flexible in scheduling, and made drop off and pick up easy. Got several pictures during the day, and Cooper came home healthy and happy. :-)”
About: I treat each pup like part of the family—whether that means sticking closely to your dog’s routine, giving extra cuddles, or providing gentle care for seniors or high-energy playtime for puppies. My home is safe, calm, and dog-friendly, with plenty of room to relax or play. I send regular updates and photos, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is in loving hands. As a retiree, pet care is truly a part of my everyday life—and something I genuinely enjoy. Since I’m home full-time, your dog will never be left alone for long periods and will receive constant attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. My daily routine is built around keeping dogs happy and comfortable, from morning walks and playtime to relaxed afternoons and evening cuddles. I keep a calm, quiet home where dogs can feel safe and relaxed, and I’m always available for feeding, potty breaks, or just spending quality time with them. When pets stay in my home, I treat them like one of the family. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, walk times, play habits, and bedtime routines—to help them feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. My home is clean, quiet, and dog-friendly, with plenty of space for lounging, supervised playtime, and cozy naps. I give each dog plenty of personal attention throughout the day, whether that means going for walks, playing fetch, or just offering a warm lap to curl up on. If your dog needs medication, special meals, or extra care (like for puppies or seniors), I handle it all with patience and attention to detail. I also keep pet parents updated with regular messages and photos, so you can rest easy knowing your pup is in good hands.

“Had a great first experience with Michael! He was super responsive, right on time, really kind, easy to work with, and sent lots of sweet pics. Our dogs were definitely in good hands.”
About: I worked at a boarding business for about a year and a half for dogs and cats. I worked with all different sizes and breeds, and ages of dogs and cats. My job tittle including playing and cuddling with the animals, feeding the animals, cleaning where they stayed, and giving medicine to the animals that required it. I have a little more than basic knowledge of dogs and cats health and always try to stay up to date with that. I dog sit and cat sit for friends and families regularly aswell. I have always grown up around animals and if you were to ask anyone who knows me they will say I have always wanted to work with animals since I knew what a job was. I am currently a college student and am majoring in wildlife conservation, while that's not specifically a major for cats and animals I still have and will learn a lot about those species as well!! I currently don't have a job so my schedule is really open. I work out everyday usually in the mornings to early afternoons. But I have a very flexible schedule! I have a fenced backyard just under 2acres of land. So it is very spacious for bigger dogs to run around in! I am able to walk dogs for however long.
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.

To ensure a seamless experience, we can discuss specific scheduling, location details, and care instructions via Rover chat.

About: My experience ranges wide from puppy training + care, all the way too administering medicine for senior dogs and caring for their special needs! I pride myself on ensuring the individual needs of each different pet are met, no matter what they may be! I currently attend Washington State University at the Pullman campus, and am currently home between the months of May and August. I am employed part time, but have plenty of extra time to devote to your fur babies! Safety & client relationships are a top priority in how I care for pets. I believe open communication between a sitter and client is crucial for peace of mind when allowing for someone else to care for your babies. I provide updates, pictures, and messages to ensure comfort on both ends. Honesty is key! I also take home safety seriously when visiting clients' properties. Locking all exterior doors, windows, and garages are a primary focus post-visiting your pet. I understand it may be nerve wracking to invite someone into your space with your furry companion, and I want to ensure I am treating your environment with the upmost respect and care.

I also take care of my families cats who can be temperamental which taught me a lot of patience when caring for animals as well.

I have a fenced yard for my dog and I walk him twice a day so he can get his energy out. I would walk your dogs how ever much is needed.

About: Looking for someone who can give your fur baby all the attention they deserve? That’s me! I’m a full time pet sitter, so your furry family member is my top priority. From morning cuddles to playtime and walks, I make sure each day is full of love and care. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. I raised two Labradors from puppies all the way to 17 and 18 years old, and I’ve also cared for many small dogs over the years. Every dog is different, so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what helps them feel comfortable. After my own dogs passed, I realized how much I still wanted dogs to be part of my life. Caring for other people’s dogs has been a meaningful way for me to share that love again. ❤️ ⭐️As part of my commitment to supporting the Mirrormont community, 5% of all earnings from Mirrormont clients are donated to the community park in support of the Mirrormont Community Association (MCA). I’m available most days and have a flexible schedule as a full time pet sitter. Please feel free to reach out to check specific dates or times. 🐾 About My Daycare 🐾 Safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I focus on creating a clean, calm, and welcoming environment where every dog can feel relaxed and well cared for. To help maintain a clean and comfortable environment for all dogs in my care, I kindly ask that all pups be fully house trained. Thank you so much for your understanding. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and at ease during their time with me, whether they are here for daycare, boarding, or in-home care. ⸻ ⭐️ Daycare Policy⭐️ Daycare typically runs from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with up to 10 hours of care — but I’m happy to adjust the schedule to fit your needs. Just let me know what works best for you and your pup. If you need a little extra time, extended care is available at $15 per additional hour. Please let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly. 🐈Since cats are often more comfortable in their own space, I generally do not offer daycare for cats. I’m always happy to provide in-home drop-in care, where your cat can remain relaxed in a familiar environment. ⸻ 🏡 Boarding Policy 🏡 When your pup stays overnight with me, they’ll be treated like family and enjoy a cozy, home-style environment. You can expect me to spend at least 20 hours a day with your pup — this includes overnight care, plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day, and a calm, comforting presence at night. That said, I may step out briefly for personal errands like grocery shopping, meals, or other short outings, but your pup will never be left alone for extended periods. I always make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for when I’m away. ⸻ 🚪 Pet Sitting Policy 🚪 When staying in your home, I promise to respect both your pets routine and your space with the utmost care. I will spend at least 20 hours a day in your home, always planning my schedule around your pup’s walks, meals, and comfort. Most importantly, I will stay overnight to keep your pups company they’ll never have to sleep alone. Their routine is my top priority, and I aim to make them feel calm, loved, and secure while you’re away. Before I leave, I will return your home to the way it was clean, tidy, and as if I was never there. ⸻ 💛 What You Can Expect I treat every fur baby like family and always follow their routine. Your pup will enjoy: • A safe, loving, and stress-free environment • Plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles • Regular updates with photos and videos • Careful tracking of water intake and potty breaks to help monitor their health. ⸻ Let me know if you’d like to schedule a meet-and-greet. I look forward to welcoming your pup into my home and making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for every step of the way 🐶💕
About: I have walked and have had overnight stays with my neighbors dogs for 6 years now. From big dogs to small dogs and even cats! I prefer no aggressive breeds(pits, shepherds, no huskies etc) I am pretty free during the week now that my daughter has started school. I am a musician also so I am out of town sometimes for shows and gigs, but I do have free time too! If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have a big yard and there are great walking trails around my house. There is also a doggy park near by. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat, but he is chill and warms up easily. If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. We help each other out! Only excepting smaller to medium sized dogs for new clients currently. I do not have a fenced yard and keep all dogs on a leash whenever I am outside. They are able to run free in my home though!

“Alexis does the best job with our 9mo old German shepherd/lab mix. He loves going there and she takes such good care of him. We get pics and updates throughout the week and she is very accommodating for his special diet. She is easy to coordinate for pick up and drop off. This is the second time we’ve used her and we will use her again.”
“Excellent dog care. We’re glad our first time using this service was this good. My pet is not used to being around other dogs, and for his first time it was awesome. Very professional :)”
“Rebecca was a dream come true! We always worry about our dog when he’s being watched by other people, but this was the first time I was truly at ease leaving him with someone new. I fully believe he had more fun than we did while we were away! She took him for walks every day, played ball with him, and made sure he had all the snuggles he wanted. She even let him play in the water during one of their hikes, which is the only thing he loves as much as his ball! We were updated daily on how he was doing and I looked forward to the photos of his adventures. The only reason I’m hesitant to leave a review is because we want her to be available for the next time we travel! Choosing her to watch you dog is a no brainer and we are so lucky to have found her!”
“Bryan and Peggy are AWESOME! Highly highly recommend them. Had my dog over there for a week and Sushi had such a great time, I can see how much she loved them both. I have another trip planned already and am excited for Sushi to get a vacation again!”
“Chris is an excellent host & a great guy. Just by talking to him, you'll come to learn the kind of observation he makes about dogs & level of care he provides. He shared good feedback about our dog and gave me a couple of tips/ideas through our conversations and I intend to make those happen. He also sent photos every day with small and funny messages to go with; which made the kids happy while our family was away on a trip. If you're reading these reviews and considering Chris, we highly recommend him! Thanks, Chris for taking care of Rubble!”
“My Wife, Achilles, and I just moved to Seattle from San Diego, we all spent a lot of time together on the road as the winter road conditions made a 3 day into a 6 day drive. After meeting the movers and getting our furniture delivered, I contacted Jennifer to watch Achilles so my Wife and I could explore Seattle for a night (date night). Jennifer offered to board Achilles. Jennifer was great with Achilles, she sent multiple pictures and updates on how Achilles was doing. Such a great experience! Thank you!”
“Great communication, friendly, flexible, and very clearly loves dogs! I trust Kaylie with my two pups and wouldn’t hesitate to bring them back for other stays. They love the backyard and spending time with the resident dogs there!”
“Danica is an excellent dog sitter. She followed all our instructions to the T. Our puppy was very happy and excited to be with her and her dogs. My kids called her place the dog heaven. They were kind to reserve a whole room for our puppy. Highly recommend her.”
“Katie was amazing to work with! She and her family took such good care of our dog, we received lots of updates and pictures of her throughout her time there. Highly recommend and we'll 100% be using her going forward!”
“Boarded our 2 dogs for 12 days… Harlie was great! She sent pictures of the dogs every day or every other day with comments on how they were doing. I felt very at ease and comfortable with Harlie taking care of my dogs while on vacation! I knew they were safe and well taken care of! Will 100% leave my furr babies with her again! She provided 5 star service & a very personable experience!!”
“My dog had a wonderful stay with Zichao and Xiaomin for over a week. I received tons of updates and she came back home tired out from all the time in the yard, playing with their pups, and trips to the park.”
“Lisa was a fantastic Rover host for our two dogs. She communicated frequently with us, was proactive in asking clarifying questions about our instructions, and clearly loves dogs. We could tell that our dogs had a great time as well! This was our first time using Rover and Lisa made everything so easy! We will book with her again!”
“This was our first time boarding Lucky with Quang and we were very happy with the care that Lucky received during his stay! We received daily photos and videos which was great. Quang is quick to respond and accommodated the schedule changes that we requested. We also did a meet and greet before the booking where Quang took the time to understand Lucky’s needs and also ensure that his dog got along as well :) We will board Lucky here again; would recommend!”
