Personalized care for your dog or cat - Lyman
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Lyman
“We needed a last minute sitter due to some change of plans. Ratih was very accommodating and flexible. I also appreciated the timely communication. Thank you for being a great cat sitter - Bubbie enjoyed his stay.”
“Bella had a great time staying with Jennifer. She had many dogs to socialize and play with. Bella made herself at home and Jennifer sent me pictures throughout her stay. I know Bella would love to stay with Jennifer again.”
“Aarika was very responsive, polite and flexible. I felt that she was easily accessible. My pup was very happy and clearly well taken care of. It was clear to me that she treated him as if he was her own and that’s exactly what I’m looking for in a Dog Sitter . I almost don’t want to leave her a good review because I want to keep her services all to myself! Haha .”
“Our dogs were so happy when we picked them up, they seemed to have had a very good time while we were away. Sara was very responsive and very nice. My two dogs had no issues returning back to our normal routine which is wonderful. I am very confident in the care they received and appreciate how Sara informed us of other dogs and any concerns she had about the dogs getting along with others which was never an issue.”
“Elaine and her husband were fabulous! They took great care of my toy poodle while boarding at their place. They even gave him a bath! I had to extend his stay due to unexpected travel delays and they were able to accomodate. I feel so blessed to have found them!!”
“I was blown away by April's positive attitude and dedication to caring for my golden retriever. She meticulously created a safe, pack-like environment where the dogs felt at home, and the areas were exceptionally clean. Even more impressive were her plans to enhance her already wonderful outdoor space. As a side note, April is a certified dog trainer. Shortly after dropping off my dog and running errands in town, I noticed her diligently and patiently leash-training my dog during a walk, as my GPS took me back past her location. April never mentioned this task on Rover or in person; she simply did it on her own time, free of charge, without boasting. Her quiet integrity and humility are extraordinarily impressive. Best Rover experience so far!”
“Kris was AMAZING. She was so flexible, so knowledgeable and caring, and I could tell that she took the best care of Cookie! Cookie came home happily exhausted from playing at her home, and we will absolutely book a stay with Kris next time we’re in the area!!”
“Our fur goblin Vivi had a fabulous stay with Kara and her pup Doc! Vivi is an energetic gal who loves play and walks, and had a good time with the toy basket at Kara’s place. We appreciated Kara’s updates, photos, and even a video of Vivi and Doc playing together. We felt very comfortable leaving Vivi in Kara’s care.”
“Sheri is a great sitter! She watched our energetic young Lab while we were on our honeymoon. She sent us photos of our dog every day, which we loved. She kept our pup busy, walking her often and playing fetch in the backyard. We arranged a meet-and-greet with her beforehand, so our dog could meet her dog, and that helped put our minds at ease. Sheri asked many questions during the meet-and-greet, and we could tell that she cared a lot. We recommend Sheri highly, and we would definitely use her as a sitter again.”
“Angela and her family are the best! I am so grateful to have found her and I always feel good and safe when I leave my precious pup in her care. She’s worth every cent!”
“Cynthia was absolutely wonderful with our pups! She sent us lots of photos and updates throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. She truly goes above and beyond. She even gave our dogs a bath before we picked them up, and while they were there, they got to join in celebrating her dog’s birthday! She did the cutest birthday photo shoot and even sent our pups home with little goodie bags. Such a fun and thoughtful surprise! It’s clear Cynthia genuinely loves dogs and treats every one like family. Our pups came home happy, clean, and loved. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing sitter!”
“Nicholas was super great! He was very helpful on my last minute request to keep lilly. I could never thank him enough for keeping her and working with me with such a short time frame! He was also quick to respond to my messages on how Lilly was behaving. If ever in Jacksonville I will for sure trust to drop my babygirl off again. Thank you so much??”
“Most of us have a hard time leaving our dog kiddos behind when we have to leave town. Well - not if you’ve got Kelsey nearby ?. It was obvious from the start that he connected with our Lily and treated her like family. Photos, comments, questions while we were away kept us from missing her too much. And never worried for a moment…We highly recommend Kelsey (& his family when needed). Thank you Kelsey ??”
“Avery was so wonderful and really took the time to get to know and understand my dog Bloomy. She took her for long walks and did everything she could to make her stay comfortable. My dog has a lot of energy and can get a bit anxious being somewhere new and I know Avery handled it all very well. I felt so comfortable leaving Bloomy in her care. I will certainly request to have her watch Bloomy again!”

“Tyeler did a wonderful job taking care of my two kitties over a holiday weekend! She was very open, communicative, timely, and I came home to two very happy and clearly well taken care of animals. My house was also pristine when I returned, which was a great thing to come home to. I’d highly recommend Tyeler to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“She went above and beyond to help out with not only my animals but my garden too! Her communication was excellent and she was kind and genuine. So grateful I found a great sitter!”
“Karolina takes wonderful loving care of our kitty, Jimmy, staying overnight with him when we have to go away. She also leaves our house cleaner than she found it. She is a wonderful find.”
“I have nothing but good things to say about Ratih. My cat, Noni, is the biggest critic of pet sitters, and both times now when I have returned to pick him up, he completely ignores me upon my arrival—I think he might have found a new favorite person!”
“Karlee was the sweetest and most caring cat sitter! Every drop-in visit had a loving note and many photos, so I could really tell she cared for my cat. She was very responsive with communications as well. As a Rover cat sitter myself, I was quite impressed and felt better on my first trip away knowing that my cat was in good hands.”
“Thank you Madeline for loving our cats while we were out. She is prompt, and responsible. We trusted Madeline and would definitely contact her next time we are out of town.”
“Amber was flexible, communicative and easygoing with our two chaotic, hot-and-cold cats. She gave them a private space, worked to integrate them with her other pets, and was patient with them even though they caused some trouble. I loved receiving daily updates with hilarious stories of their antics!”
“Antonina took great care of my cat. For each 30 minute drop in she was always communicative, on time, took great photos, spent time with my cat and my cat seemed to like her. That makes me feel better about leaving the cat home alone. Antonina offers what it think the Rover experience is all about and she will be my go-to person when I need a cat sitter again.”
“Jessica is one of the kindest-hearted and thoughtful person you'd meet. In a world often focused on capitalism over humanity, she is a rare gem. I'll start by saying that I have never boarded my pets because they travel with me full-time, but when I have to do a very long backcountry hike in the Cascades over difficult terrain that doesn't allow pets, I was lucky to find Jess last-minute to host my kitty in case I get injured and can't return to him in a timely manner. Setting: Like-minded animal lovers always hold a special place in my heart. Here, you are not going to find an immaculate, more corporate type pet-sitting kennel setup. Instead, you will find a warm, loving home cared for full-time by Jess and her family. Jessica's home has many animals. In addition to dogs to cats, she also raises farm animals of various kinds. I have no idea how all the animals find ways to live largely harmoniously together, but when I first pulled up to her home, I was greeted by many of them :) Sitting service: traveling in and around the Cascades often requires flexibility. Dark, windy mountain roads, spotty cell reception, etc make pinning down exact travel plans a challenge. Ever accommodating, Jess understood this and was so kind and reassuring while I was away. If you book your pet with her, you may find that she doesn't just care for your pet; she takes the time to learn and understand your needs and offers help whenever she can. I was upfront about being unsure of how long my hike would take. Well, it ended up taking much longer than I anticipated. Not only did she work with me on the timing of pick-up, she was so kind to offer help/advice in other thoughtful ways. Booking: If you want to work with (and have your hard-earned dollars go toward supporting a local small business service), consider reaching out to Jessica, clearly communicate your needs/pet peeves. You won't be disappointed and will leave with a local friend.”
About: I have my own cats, I have 5. All girls all spayed but one. I used to have a litter box but now I have litter robot, 2 of them. So litter will be well maintained! If I do at yours I’ll clean the litter box daily either once or twice a day depending on your situation I can do more and willing to. I have experience with cleaning a cats butt as one of mine gets number 2 stuck on her sometimes. I can clip nails. Bathe cats if needed and wanted.
“Wonderful as always! Luna is happy, loved and fed when we get home. If you're reading this, tip on Venmo. Unfortunately there's a tip limit. And Emily provides care, reassurance and constant communication wich to me, is worth more than 20%”
About: I have 2 years of experience working at a dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. From playful puppies to senior dogs with disabilities, I've seen it all. Growing up surrounded by a variety of dogs, from tiny Yorkies to gentle Great Danes, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs. Whether it's providing extra care for seniors or giving energetic pups their much-needed exercise, I’m passionate about keeping your furry friends happy and healthy! I’m available to care for your pets throughout the week! Whether you need a dog walk, check-in, or caring for your pet while away, I’m here to help! Let me know your pet’s needs, and I’ll make sure they’re well cared for during the times that work best for you. Please note: Starting June 1, 2025, my HOUSE SITTING rates will be updated. On Rover, the listed rate will show as $60 per night, which applies when you're away on vacation or need care over multiple days with daytime coverage. However, if you're booking longer daytime care without an overnight stay (for example, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM), the rate will be adjusted to $20 per hour for the time I’m actively caring for your pets. While the initial booking may still show as $60, I will manually adjust the rate on my end and send it to you for approval before confirming. This helps ensure you're only paying for the time you need, and your pets still receive high-quality, attentive care. Additionally, please note that for extended visits, I can provide early morning and late night drop ins, but will stay in my own home as I have my own fur babies to care for ☺️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in the familiar environment of your home, ensuring they feel secure and relaxed. I build trust through consistent, loving attention, treating each pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s following specific routines or providing a calm atmosphere, I make sure your furry friend feels safe and well cared for while you’re away.
“Heidi went above and beyond to make sure our beloved pets were taken care of and safe. I would recommend her to anyone who's looking for a great pet sitter! She did an outstanding job staying in communication with us and giving us the piece of mind that our animals were well looked after. We will definitely be hiring her again the next time we travel and so should you!”
“Emily is professional, responsible and is timely on communication. She sat our two cats and even went above and beyond by taking in a package. She was on time, provided pictures as requested and wrote a thoughtful description of the drop by. I recommend her for a quality pet sitting!”
About: Reliable, trustworthy, and warm-hearted pet sitter experienced with animals of all personalities. I provide loving, attentive care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and treated like family while owners are away I’m a current student at WWU, majoring in Recreation Management & Leadership.

“Sydnie was efficient and communicated well with us. She kept us reassured that our cat was doing well. I was happy she could give him insulin and also observe his behavior. I would hire her again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Lyman
“Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of my little ZuZu. I appreciated that she was able to take care of her last minute. I felt like I was leaving her in good hands and I would definitely have Jennifer take care of my puppy again! ☺️”
About: I've owned multiple dogs at a time all my life. As an Airbnb host I offer doggy daycare for guests as well as traveling to people's homes for long-term pet care. The property is 20 acers of free roaming land. We also have a fenced area for less trustworthy pups. Those less trustworthy still get lots of exercise and loving outside the dog yard. Pets can sleep in the house with family dogs or in a crate. I live and work on the property so your pet will have 24 hour care and attention. If for any reason they need to be left alone they are placed with our dogs in the house or the fenced yard. We have 3 dogs (Beagle, Springer and Doodle) that have full run of the place and are very kind and playful. We play fetch everyday and take long walks. If you have a smaller inside pup they will lounge on one of our many dog beds. We have plenty of pet toys.
“She took great care of my dog Damian! He came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Communication was smooth, and I really appreciated the updates. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone needing a reliable sitter.”
“Amber is awesome! My baby is so excited to see her and comes home so sleepy. I also absolutely love the cute videos I get throughout the day. She genuinely cares like they’re her own, very appreciative she puts up with my psycho puppy!”
About: We have raised many dogs and treat them as family. We have worked with puppies and senior dogs and everything in between. We are familiar with providing meds as needed as well. I work full time in Construction Management but I am currently working from home a few days a week and open weekends for ample time to spend with your pups. We also host a Sniffspot private dog park for rent out on our property that we can take walks on in between bookings and live right down from Little Mountain Park for hiking or walking along the trails. We also live conveniently located 3 miles from I-5 for quick drop off and pickup off the freeway. I am available on all days of the week for boarding depending on the dog and owner with a meet and greet as I will be at the office Monday - Wednesday from 0730-400 and the dog would be with my at my office which sits on multiple acres with walks every 2 hours. Contact me anytime if you have any questions. Dogs are treated as family in our home and have a comfy bed for day napping and plenty of room to move around. We play in the backyard, walk leashed on our property in the upper forested area and have access to the trails at Little Mountain Park for walks weather permitting.
“Elaine took the best care of my girl. Sadie is old, overweight, and not in the best of health so having peace of mind that she’s well taken care of and having a fun day makes me feel less stressed about leaving her for the day.”
“Katrina is a gem - quick responses, and was very easy going and willing to roll with it when I (embarrassingly) forgot my dog's bag of lunch, toys, etc. the first time I brought him over. I don't think he even missed his things, given how well her place is set up for dogs. The big, fenced back yard is a dream!”
“So much love given to our pup during her daycare stay this last weekend. Thank you Olga and family for taking such good care of our dog for the day! She loved being able to run around in the yard & play fetch. She came home very happy and tired. We would absolutely recommend Olga!”
About: Pet CPR and First Aid certified. I'm also a certified college graduate for vet assistant as of November 2025! I've taken care of pets in my home ever since I was about 9 years old. We had cats and dogs while I was growing up and it was part of my daily routine to care for those animals. I looked after my parent's dogs whenever they went on vacation or when they needed an evening out. I have also watched a coworkers dog who needed daily meds while she was on vacation. As of today, I own a Golden Retriever who I trained from the moment I got him at 4 months old. He was a handful at first since his previous owner didn't have the time for him. But with much patience and positive reinforcement, he's a Golden boy! He is one of the friendliest dogs you will ever meet and impresses everyone with how well behaved he is! I am pretty good at reading dogs and knowing what they must be thinking or feeling. I observe them and see if there is any change to their behavior that I should ever be concerned about as well. Dogs and cats are family, as such they should be treated that way! I am pretty open for availability for when you need me. Send me a message with the times and days and I will try to fit it into my schedule! I make sure every animal in the household is properly cared for at all times. Animals deserve only the best care and attention after all! If they want to play, we go outside in a safe location and play! They want some love and cuddles? I'm all for it! They need a nice walk that isn't strenuous? Lets fit that into the schedule!
“Morgan was absolutely wonderful with Vader! You could tell he loved her. She walked him frequently and gave him lots of love and us lots of pics. Would absolutely highly recommend!!!”
About: Training my two aussie shepherd girls is a passion of mine, we herd sheep a couple times a week. I am proud to say I can keep up with them, although raising an aussie puppy is not for the faint of heart! They deserve adventures so I take them to new places with new smells and I would be happy to help your pup experience the world in a new way too! If you're not comfortable with that, they are safe in my home too 💚 Pet care is a full-time job and I treat it as such. Fur babies in my home get enrichment via toys, puzzles, treats and exercise- happy to train your doggo under 90lbs to use our treadmill! We go out to herd a few times a week and get outdoors every day, rain or shine :) My pets are my family. They deserve to be safe, healthy, and comfortable. I understand that it is a deep honor to afford them the freedom and attention they deserve and I dont take the responsibility lightly.
“Ariana is super accommodating and very friendly! She took my puppy on a really long walk today too and he had so much fun! He passed out as soon as he got in the car! So happy I found Ariana and her family!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently am a professional dog whelper for several breeders, can administer medications, can watch puppies or Pregnant females as well. Currently work from home so I’m available anytime after 10 am can do earlier just need to be advised in advance and can also watch weekends if planned in advanced. My routine varies depending on how many pups we watch 🙂 We have fenced off an area for our dogs, and will have supervised outside play time. We also have private Trails we can go for hikes.
“Holly and her family took such great care of our dog, Dottie. I couldn't be happier with the process - from the first message to the meet & greet to the doggy day care date. Communication was clear and easy, and I felt that safety and care were well prioritized. Having that reassurance that your dog is in good hands is honestly priceless. The fact she had a great time with Archie is the cherry on top. Dottie is already passed out sleeping (on the couch - sorry!) from all the fun she had. Will definitely book again. Also thank you for all the photos during the visit! They were very comforting for this anxious dog mom.”

About: I still have few spots available in May, June and part of July, so book your pet sitting now! Sedro-Woolley, Bellingham and Mount Vernon! As a school bus driver, I work 6-10 AM, then have few hours break and go back to my afternoon drive 2-6 PM. To ensure proper care for animals, I like to book clients no further than a 30 min drive from Sedro Woolley. Please take this into consideration when looking at a sitter for your pets! The school year ends June 12th and I am available until mid-July. Afterwards, I am taking time off for my own motorcycle travels (this time to Colorado) and then spend August in Europe :) I have owned cats, large dogs (100 + lbs), and horses over the years, so I'm well-versed in handling a variety of pet needs. I am comfortable around animals and can stand my ground with them. I enjoy large breeds and, having two 150Lbs + dogs before I know how hard it is to find someone to take care of them! I am available for short and long term stays in Whatcom and Skagit counties. Dogs, cats, horses, turtles and fish - all welcomed and loved! I work as a school bus driver, so I leave the house early in the morning for few hours, then have 2-4 hrs off and then drive the kids home in the afternoon, usually 2-6 pm. If this is something that will work for you and your pet family, please reach out! I usually do a greet & meet before to make sure that everyone is comfortable! I will follow the directions you give me, be it giving medication to your pets, putting it in the crate at night or when away and any other rules that you may have.
“Madeline came by to get the dogs zoomiez out so they didn't spend too much alone time being mischievous. I'd recommend Madeline and hope to work with her in the future!”

I also have chickens, turkeys, ducks, goats, rabbits, and geese! Animals are truly my passion, and my goal is to make my house feel like their home away from home. I'm a stay at home mom (I was previously a HS teacher), and my days are typically spent outdoors with my dogs and kiddos (weather permitting). So my schedule is very flexible! I have a fully fenced yard, and a house with plenty of room for the dogs to romp. I also have a designated area for my cats, whenever they’re wanting to get away from the dogs, so for in home pet sitting, your cat(s) can have a safe place to decompress and not be overwhelmed with dogs. I can easily crate dogs if needed, but my dogs usually have free run of the house, and your dog(s) can too! My dogs get along with animals of all kinds, and are very gentle and friendly.

“She took care of my babies when I went to Hawaii. After the first day she hurt her leg and was very upfront with me about it, even asking if I wanted to use someone else. I chose to stick with her and she let my dogs out to potty the whole week even on crutches. Honest and reliable person!”

I pet sit for all my family and friends and am just looking to expand. I have many references and am very trusted. I'm just your every day animal lover. Your pet first before anything. I'm very dedicated to happy animals and even happier owners. I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I will ensure a happy and healthy pet every time I am involved.
About: I have taken care of just about every animal in the book, my family is well known for fostering animals and even taking care of them when they need medical attention. I have also worked as a puppy nanny for 2 years when I was 12 along with feeding, bathing, and walking friends and families animals while they were out of town. I’m currently a full time college student, I’m in school Monday-Thursday. I also work part time. I am in school from 7 am to 3pm, and work Sunday-Wednesday I have a fenced yard with 3 friendly dogs along with three sweet and loving cats. My dogs and cats are beyond spoiled and loved for.
About: Currently raising my 4th puppy a Newfoundland name Freydis , raised a frenchie and 2 newfies prior. The bigger the dog the better. Please keep in mind I don’t drive or have a car but I do have and ebike. Easily accepting Redmond/Kirkland/Woodinville/Bothell jobs. I work full time Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Friday 6:30am-3:00pm. I am free all times outside of that. I’m able to do one offs but I would prefer something ongoing. Prefer to bring my friendly potty trained puppy but understand if that’s not your pets/babies vibe. Hyper aware of dangerous floor items, dangerous foods, what toys aren’t appropriate and why, what collars and harness are are good for what. I want my animals to eat the best items, play with toys that won’t hurt them and make them the happiest babies so they live the longest. Your animals aren’t JUST pets they are our world!

“Aarika was very responsive, polite and flexible. I felt that she was easily accessible. My pup was very happy and clearly well taken care of. It was clear to me that she treated him as if he was her own and that’s exactly what I’m looking for in a Dog Sitter . I almost don’t want to leave her a good review because I want to keep her services all to myself! Haha .”
“Our dogs were so happy when we picked them up, they seemed to have had a very good time while we were away. Sara was very responsive and very nice. My two dogs had no issues returning back to our normal routine which is wonderful. I am very confident in the care they received and appreciate how Sara informed us of other dogs and any concerns she had about the dogs getting along with others which was never an issue.”
“I was blown away by April's positive attitude and dedication to caring for my golden retriever. She meticulously created a safe, pack-like environment where the dogs felt at home, and the areas were exceptionally clean. Even more impressive were her plans to enhance her already wonderful outdoor space. As a side note, April is a certified dog trainer. Shortly after dropping off my dog and running errands in town, I noticed her diligently and patiently leash-training my dog during a walk, as my GPS took me back past her location. April never mentioned this task on Rover or in person; she simply did it on her own time, free of charge, without boasting. Her quiet integrity and humility are extraordinarily impressive. Best Rover experience so far!”
“Sheri is a great sitter! She watched our energetic young Lab while we were on our honeymoon. She sent us photos of our dog every day, which we loved. She kept our pup busy, walking her often and playing fetch in the backyard. We arranged a meet-and-greet with her beforehand, so our dog could meet her dog, and that helped put our minds at ease. Sheri asked many questions during the meet-and-greet, and we could tell that she cared a lot. We recommend Sheri highly, and we would definitely use her as a sitter again.”
“Nicholas was super great! He was very helpful on my last minute request to keep lilly. I could never thank him enough for keeping her and working with me with such a short time frame! He was also quick to respond to my messages on how Lilly was behaving. If ever in Jacksonville I will for sure trust to drop my babygirl off again. Thank you so much??”
“Avery was so wonderful and really took the time to get to know and understand my dog Bloomy. She took her for long walks and did everything she could to make her stay comfortable. My dog has a lot of energy and can get a bit anxious being somewhere new and I know Avery handled it all very well. I felt so comfortable leaving Bloomy in her care. I will certainly request to have her watch Bloomy again!”
“Brooke is an amazing dog sitter. She has a huge yard for Birdie and her new best friend Lambeau. Lots of photos and texts. Lots of walks and attention. Thank you again!”
“Morgan is the BEST! She was so sweet and accommodating and a great communicator. She also sends sweet photos and check in’s which is so nice. Book her for you doggy care needs!”
“Thoughtful, kind, received daily updates and pictures of Kenai. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was safe and being taken care of by people who know and love dogs. She even came home with a Christmas art craft featuring her paw prints!! <3”
“Katrina helped me out last minute while visiting the area to hike. Between Katrina and her sisters it seemed that my chihuahuas had a lot of attention and love! My dogs weren't even in a rush to leave so I know they enjoyed their new human friends.”
“Lenore took the absolute best care one could hope for of my German Shepherd, Maggie. Over the course of the weekend my plans changed, and Lenore was exceptionally flexible. I was able to enjoy my weekend away, completely assured that Maggie was in truly capable hands and cared for by a compassionate heart. Maggie and Lenore‘s dog Rook also got along famously. It’s not just a relief. I have finally found Maggie‘s home away from home.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our two dogs were so well cared for, and it was clear they were treated with love and attention the entire time. We appreciated the daily photos and updates. It made being away so much easier. We will absolutely be booking again with Danielle”

“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Kate is an amazing dog sitter! She took care of our pup for a week and provided a fantastic experience throughout. Her beautiful spacious land and three friendly dogs created a perfect environment for our pup to play and socialize. Kate's love and attention made our pup feel right at home. We highly recommend her!”
“Trinity did a great job of looking after our senior blind/diabetic dog. Kept us informed on how she was doing. She had no problems with her special feeding schedule and giving her the insulin injection.”
