“Great guy, no complaints! His dogs play well with others and the house is nice. He kept in good communication and sent pictures of my dog during the stay, would re-book and recommend him to others!”
“Another successful stay at Jeremy’s for my pup, Cooper. Jeremy is quick to respond, very communicative, and sends regular updates. Definitely my go-to sitter. Thanks for everything Jeremy!”
“Kaela treated Theodore like her own! He had so much fun there and came home completely pooped. She sent me pics and updates throughout his stay and it helped put me at ease. She is great!”
“Jamie was great! She was communicative, responsive, and my dog was so happy and so tuckered out after such a fun weekend when I picked her up. Truly cannot recommend highly enough.”
“Maggie did a wonderful job with Summer. It was reassuring to know that Summer was in a safe and happy place while we were away. I got regular updates and I know by the smile on Summer's face in the pics that she was happy with Mochi! Definitely will be returning for my future sitting needs. Thank you Maggie!”
“Darby was amazing with our two pups! They were calm and displayed trust the moment they met her, which meant so much to us. She sent the sweetest photo updates and little stories throughout their stay (couch cuddles, movie night, adventure walks, and exploring her garden). She was also patient with our picky eater, Kona, and made sure she felt encouraged and cared for. Both dogs ate well, slept great, and came home happy and relaxed. We’re so grateful to have found someone who treats our pups like family. We’ll definitely be booking with Darby again!”
“Kristin was a great sitter. She gave Josie Jo lots of love and attention and her little dog became Josie’s good friend. She sent photos and videos which made my day. I will definitely ask Kristen to care for Josie Jo again when I travel.”
“Amanda is amazing! It was my first time using Rover, and I was a bit nervous. But after meeting her, her family, and her dog, I was so happy that I made the decision to choose her! She is so kind, caring, and responsive when it came to watching my boy!”
“I had to leave my dog for a longer period than I ever have before, and I was really nervous about it. That completely changed when I met Jerrie! She was so kind and understanding about my anxiety, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout my trip, she communicated consistently and sent photos, which made such a difference and helped me relax knowing my dog was in good hands. When I picked her up, it was clear my dog was happy to see me, but also that she had truly bonded with Jerrie and loved her. That meant everything to me. I will absolutely be using Jerrie from now on whenever I need to leave my dog. Highly recommend!”
“The best dogsitter EVER!! Lisa is amazing, she will have your family member very comfortable and relaxed!!! My bully enjoyed ever moment with Lisa and family. I will only trust Lisa with my boy!!”
“My dogs ALWAYS enjoy staying with John. My smaller couch potato dog loves his calm household with granddaughter visits. His large, fenced backyard and lots of outdoor time chasing the ball and squirrels accommodates my larger more energetic dog. I’m a repeat client and will definitely board with John again!”
“Bobbi was amazing with our two dogs when we were out of town for a week! She took them out multiple times a day on walks and had several other dogs around to play with them and keep them busy. She sent pictures/videos everyday and they always looked so happy and well taken care of! Will 100% use again if we go out of town! Best Rover experience we’ve had!”
“Jill is fantastic! If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would. She's so kind, caring, and communicative. She and Josie took such good care of our little pup, and treated her (and us!) like family. She sent us pupdates, photos, and video of our little dog having the time of her life. We felt so at ease and knew our baby was being adored and cared for. We all had a great experience and we couldn't be thankful enough to Jill for treating our girl like a little princess.”
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs, and I really appreciated that she required a meet-and-greet beforehand with her own dogs. It showed me that she genuinely cares about the well-being and safety of every dog in her care—not just filling bookings. She came up with a thoughtful plan to make sure my dog would be comfortable and safe with the other dogs, which gave me so much confidence leaving him with her. Throughout his stay, Jennifer was friendly, communicative, and sent lots of pictures and updates that really put my mind at ease. I could tell my dog was in great hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy dog sitter!”
“Our dog had so much fun with Pamela. I will use her services again. Excellent care and no worries. She heard my concerns as we have a young dog and didn't know how he would interact while eating. Her report showed me she heard us and in the end, our dog had no aggressiveness toward other dogs when his food was presented. Excellent.”
“Annmarie took wonderful care of our dog. We received several photos, videos, and other updates during our dog's stay. I also appreciated that she took the time to meet our dog before our trip”
“This was my first experience for boarding my dog with Noelle. I appreciated how open and flexible she was to doing a meet and greet first, prior to my booking. Her home was very clean and she really cares about the pets she cares for. Great communication and she really treated my dog like she was her own. I appreciated all the updates with photos and videos, and taking my dog on walks. I definitely will be booking with her again for future stays.”
“The boys loved staying here. They have a great home and the other pups they watch are all great with my boys. They get ouside and get out a lot of energy. My pups came home sleepy and happy! 10/10 recommend.”

“I was looking for someone who could give my cat his medicine and keep an eye on him incase he was in need of anything. Jenna was awesome and I can't wait to have her come cat sit again. Thank you Jenna!”
“Laura went above and beyond while taking care of our 3 cats. She played with them, brought them treats and unfortunately had to clean up some throw up. She was very good at communicating and letting me know what was going on. I always worry about my cats when we are out of town, but I felt like my cats were safe and taken care of. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her next time!”

“Sarah is wonderful! She took care of our senior cat, with kindness. I am an extremely nervous pet owner, due to some terrible pet sitters on rover. Sarah is rebuilding that trust, by be kind, thoughtful and precise. She continues to ask questions and learn how to care for our kids. Thank you Sarah!!! 😊”
“I think a Wren is a fantastic person. She was very accommodating with meeting Zeus and I. Zeus warmed up to her immediately. I instantly felt comfortable giving her the key to my house so she could care for Zeus while I was on vacation for 2 weeks. I will definitely be using her again for my future vacations. I esp appreciated the photos and mini updates while I was away. Much appreciated!”

I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is happy and safe.
“Yvonne took care of my beloved cat with such love and compassion. She sent photos and answered all my questions on a daily basis. I will definitely be asking her to care for Muffin in the future!”
“Sara takes great care of our pets. And even when our shy cat stayed hidden she made efforts each time to greet her and give her treats. She was respectful of our girls and our home and we'd happily hire her again.”
“Ashley took such great care of my three cats! She was very on time for our scheduled drop ins, extremely communicative, and genuinely cared for my cats’ well being. I would definitely hire her again!”
“I loved having Lisa watch Crosby. Most recently I had to l ave him while I had surgery and I never worried one bit about him. Her gentle manner always comes through and I know Crosby is safe.”
“Brian did a great job checking in on our dogs! We were gone on a day trip and just need someone to stop bye and let the dogs out. He handled them very well, took pictures and let us know everything was okay. We will definitely we reaching out in the future 💗”

“Darby has been very supportive and flexible with her schedule and availability to help out as we navigate a challenging time in our life. Our dog loves going to her house, and we get great photos of our dog!”
“Excellent service. Sonia has a genuine and special love pets. My baby Maltese Napoleon spent a day with her and when I picked him up he was happy and in a very good mood for a while after we got home. It was super easy to drop off and pick up. I will definitely bring my baby back even if I don’t need care because he even made new fur friends while he was there. Sonia also sent beautiful pictures throughout the day. Total peace of mind when my baby was on her care.”
“Lisa and her family graciously took care of Milo while I was passing through town and accommodated our quick schedule. They had great energy and Milo seemed to have a wonderful time. So grateful to have found them!”
About: Had dogs my entire life. Lost my last one a few months ago. Have fenced in yard for them to run. And plenty of toys. I’m retired so I have nothing but time to watch your pet. I walk every day would love to have your dog along for the walk. I have a fenced in yard , and a.good sized back yard with squirrels that need to be chased. Your pet will be welcome in our home.
“Kristin and her little daughter took such great care of Teddy ☺️He clearly felt comfortable and had a lovely time. Communication was easy and friendly — we’d definitely trust them again!”
“Alison is our favorite dog sitter. She is very responsible, great with communication, really takes the time to understand our dog’s needs. She works from home but always takes time to take our dog out for walks or play with her. You can really tell she loves dogs. We couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Very lovely experience. Emily and Dean have a wonderful family and home. They had a well behaved and sweet doggy. My dog had a great time. I will definitely book again when my dog sitter near my home is unavailable: Thank you. 😊 🩷🐾”
“I am an overprotective veterinary professional/Karen here... so I'm shocked that I found someone I'm so confident saying this about, but... Jennifer could NOT be a better, safer, more reliable, more loving, more careful and cautious pet sitter. My best friend and I were in Olympia for a few days recently for an event, and I needed somewhere for my three beautiful black crazies to be for that day. I'd spoken with some other pet sitters, but wasn't impressed, and I was getting more and more stressed out about it. Luckily, at the 13th hour, someone my daughter works with recommended Jennifer. As soon as we walked into her home, I knew I'd found my "person". Her entire house is set up to be a doggie Disneyland. Her yard is ENORMOUS, fully enclosed, and has natural ground. (Which is great, because I always worry about ACL injuries when dogs are running on concrete or slippery grass.) Within the first 10 minutes of being there, my autistic adult dog relieved herself completely, which she hadn't done throughout the prior three days we were traveling. And then... the most amazing thing of all... she started ZOOMING around the yard! I have had her for five years, and had never seen her like that before. She was like a bullet, flying through the air, unstoppable in her joy and speed. Her puppy brothers struggled to keep up with her, but couldn't. It was one of the most beautiful things I'd ever seen. I felt so, so comfortable leaving my three babies with her. I'd never felt that comfortable with anyone. Beyond that, Jennifer was friendly and incredibly flexible. It's clear she really loves dogs. I told her that if I ever make the 1,000-plus mile trip again, it would be so that my dogs could visit her, and NOT so that I could see my daughter. Joking...? I think not. Thank you, Jennifer! We need a million more "yous" everywhere. 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡”
“Jeremy is amazing, he offers very professional customer service, and it’s always easy booking with Jeremy, communicating, and making changes to reservations. Dion, the great service, Jeremy cares deeply about dogs, and is kind of,, caring, and takes time to understand and accommodate their individual needs. He does a great job, caring for my senior dog, as well as my very rambunctious lab. My dogs always come home happy and tired from a long and fun day.”
“Hi Scott, Thank you so much to you and your family! You were all awesome and took care of Olive as if she were part of the family. She felt right at home from the very first day, and the atmosphere in your home was incredibly welcoming. We truly appreciate everything you did.”
About: I have had many types of animals my whole life! Dogs, cats, opossum, Guinea pigs, horses and a coyote pup. I treat animals like family members & give them lots of love and attention. I am retired so when I am dog sitting, I will be home the whole time. I give my dog all the attention she needs & I will do the same for yours. I only sit 1 dog at a time so that way your fur baby won’t ever feel left out. I have a fully fenced back yard where my little Morki/Shih Tzu loves to run. My husband & I make sure one of us is holding our little dog if someone comes to the door. We have dog seat belts if we need to take the dogs for a ride. I have a safe place to walk the dogs where we can stay on a sidewalk. No dog will be more cared for.
“We were very happy with our dogs care with Pamela. Our dog got the attention and activity with other dogs that he needed while we were gone for a day. And he was tired and happy when we picked him up 😀 It was nice to receive pictures thruout the day too! Will definately use Pamela's services again for our pup!”
“I couldn’t be happier with Jennifer and her family for taking such great care of my dog. My dog came home happy, tired. I will definitely continue to board with Jennifer.”
“I am so happy I found Amanda! Sam comes home worn out every day, and its so nice to have the peace of mind knowing she's having fun with a friend during the day instead of just sitting at home. Would definitely recommend!!”

About: Hi there! I'm a part-time teacher, full time animal lover! I've cared for dogs big and small, from puppies to seniors. I use fear-free training and socialization strategies to make pets feel safe, confident, and loved (including with my own puppy, Phoebe). :-) I'm a substitute teacher, meaning that I have summers off of work- AKA, plenty of time to share with your pet! I have a flexible schedule and am available most days/times. Reach out and we'll make it work! I work hard to build solid, positive relationships with your pets to keep them safe, secure, and happy! As a puppy-parent myself, I know consistency is key, so I'm always happy to help your pets practice their tricks, obedience, and being on their best behavior. I'm comfortable crating, leashing, and handling pets in their homes and neighborhoods, as well as providing play, socialization, and mental enrichment.
“Lauren and Dalton were amazing They came over for a meet and greet before using them to walk our dog. You could tell they love dogs. They were easy to communicate with and got back to me very quickly when I messaged them I appreciated that they sent updates and pictures of our pup.”

“Alright... where to begin! Brian did a wonderful meet and greet with my boys (two newfoundlands) and walked them today without me..that may seem like a strange thing to say but Byron (my younger boy) refuses to go on a walk for anyone but me - not even my husband! He was perfectly fine on going on the walk with Sinjin (my older boy) and Brian. No temper tantrums, no refusal to walk. NONE of it. Brian took them on a good walk, they had fun and their were no problems.”
About: Hi! My name is Manuela, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Back home in Colombia, I took care of my own two dogs as well as my relatives’ dogs, so I’ve been around dogs with different personalities and needs for years. I also worked as an Au Pair, where one of my daily responsibilities included caring for two family dogs. This gave me experience balancing pet care with a busy routine while making sure they received plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Most of the dogs I’ve cared for have been large breeds, including Pit Bulls, Labrador Retrievers, and Rhodesian Ridgebacks, so I’m comfortable handling bigger, energetic dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. I will always care for your pet with patience, kindness, and the same love I would give my own. Every dog has their own personality. I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and what makes them feel comfortable, so they can feel at ease while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I’m currently available seven days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet whenever you need. Whether it’s a morning walk, an afternoon visit, or overnight care, I’ll do my best to work around your schedule. I’m committed to providing dependable and consistent care, and I always make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I also speak both English and Spanish, so I’m happy to communicate in whichever language you’re most comfortable with. Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my top priority. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I respect every client’s home as if it were my own, and I make sure pets have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has different needs and energy levels. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel completely at ease. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Kelsey took excellent care of my pup while I was out of town, she is a great communicator and very flexible and reliable. I would absolutely recommend her! She also sends fantastic updates that seriously made me smile every day🥰”
“Liza is great! Most importantly, our Abby loves her and Liza likes Abby an awful lot, too. Liza is reliable, responsive to questions and keeps me informed. She has been so kind during a family member’s serious health problems. Because they were hospitalized unexpectedly, there was and the uncertainty of how long the overnights booking would last since it was dependent on how things went after surgery.”
About: Of my 10 years of pet care experience, 8 of those years includes veterinary medicine. I love all different kinds of animals, and am good with all types of personalities, fear levels, and temperaments. I can also administer medications and care for pets with special needs. My other work is freelance, so my schedule is usually open and flexible. Overnight stays are easy for me to configure, and I'm able to prioritize your pets in my schedule. My main priority is the pets safety and happiness. I have experience de-escalating anxiety, redirecting aggression, and navigating tension between pets. I always double leash dogs for walks and I am experienced with all varieties of leash, walk, and play based behavior.
“Amanda is amazing 5atars Great communication Responded Within minutes of my inquiry . Responded with professionalism and was personable. Very sweet and easy to talk too. Gave me great updates on the walk. She handled my Belgian malinoise that's overweight about 150lbs. In addition so working with my other dog thatnis very timid - both were very responsive to her and trusted her. I would hire her again in the heartbeat. She has a very sweet and trusting demeanor.”

About: As an experienced dog sitter, I go beyond basic care by truly understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I have a natural ability to read their body language and adapt to their moods, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s administering medications, following specific dietary plans, or providing enriching playtime and walks, I tailor my approach to each dog’s routine. My calm and attentive demeanor helps even the most anxious dogs feel at ease, and I maintain clear communication with pet owners for peace of mind. Having cared for my own senior Pomeranian, Zeus, until he was 14, I am particularly attuned to the special needs of older dogs, including administering medications and adjusting routines for their comfort. I currently have an year and a half year old Yellow Labrador Retriever named cooper, so well experienced with puppies I’m currently home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether your dog needs frequent potty breaks, long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication, or just extra cuddles and companionship, I’m able to be there consistently. I love getting outside for walks and making sure dogs stay mentally and physically happy while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal like they’re my own and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages, energy levels, and temperaments, including senior dogs and puppies.

About: I been fostering kittens for two years with my partner, including bottle-feeding newborns, caring for young or special needs litters, and administering medications. It's been an incredibly rewarding experience and has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and animal care. I also have experience house-sitting for both cats and dogs through the Rover app, making sure pets stay happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and always treat them like my own. I work full-time, but pet care is still a big part of my routine because I’m super flexible and adaptable. I’m comfortable managing tasks around my schedule and always prioritize making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home, especially kittens I’m fostering, I provide a safe, clean, and nurturing environment. I make sure they get plenty of social interaction and gentle handling to help them thrive. I also monitor their health closely and keep their space sanitized to prevent illness. When caring for pets in a client’s home through house sitting, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding routines, medication, exercise, or playtime. I treat their home and pets with respect, maintaining the usual environment to keep pets comfortable and stress free. I also provide regular updates to owners so they feel connected and confident while away.
“Savina did a great job walking our dog while we were out for the day. We came home to a worn out and happy pup! We had peace of mind knowing Savina was watching over our baby. We recommend Savina and will book her for future walks!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with vet med experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I treat every pet like family and prioritize safety, comfort, and routine.

“Caelyn was so amazing with Cheddar! I had to have a surgery that took me out of commission for quite a few days and I booked Caelyn to walk Cheddar once a day during my initial recovery. Cheddar is usually very timid but warmed up immediately to her and they were best friends by the last day! She always came home tired and out of breath which is exactly what I needed. Caelyn also takes the cutest photos during the walks which always puts a smile on my face when they return to my house. Definitely plan on booking regularly with Caelyn :)”
About: I focus on ways to remain patient and allow an organic connection to develop between me and the animal. That's why even if it's for a simple drop in, I want to meet your pet or pets in advance to see if it's comfortable for everyone. Every animal has its own unique personality, individual communication styles and needs and no offense to the owners, I know you know your babies, but I like to see through my interaction with the pet and how we connect, if it's going to work. My hope is to develop an equal respect and trust with your pet so we can be friends, work and play and enjoy each other's company while "their human" is away. I have a lot of experience training animals and rehabilitating dogs who have suffered trauma, abuse, have aggression issues or need a variety of training from potty training, leash or car etiquette, food aggression and basic commands. I understand having animals can make us reluctant to travel or just adds that extra added stress, so knowing your fur baby is being cared for by someone who will be reliable, safe and loving makes leaving them a lot easier. My ability to connect with an animal and the patience involved is something I take great pride in and thoroughly enjoy. Every animal deserves to be cared for, listened to and understood.. I love animals and knowing their humans can leave them with the confidence they're going to be safe and loved makes me very happy! I work from home and have a schedule that allows me to support pet owners with their pet care, walks, potty breaks, medications, just coming to visit and say hi, to pet owners who live within a reasonable distance from my home. Remaining patient with an animal who is meeting a stranger for the first time, respecting that I am in their environment. Waiting it out, being on their time and realizing they'll show me they are ready to trust and connect. Not expecting them to jump into my arms and be best friends immediately, granted, there are those critters that just love in the first second, others don't. So, knowing and respecting that is important. Meet and greet(s), going over their routine, their comfort zone, their queues, their fears, what makes them so happy, what makes them smile, favorite toy. Realizing I am not "their human" ,knowing and respecting boundaries. Anything that falls outside of that can sometimes lead to high levels of anxiety or fear in both the animal and the human. I like to take time earning the trust of the animal, so when they are ready to engage with me, we can do that as a team.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16 years old but have always had dogs of my own. I also worked as a veterinary tech throughout high school and have a lot of experience with all animals. I have 2 dogs of my own and 3 cats so as you can tell I just love being around animals. I will treat your baby/babies as if they’re my own. I have also fostered 5 kittens. I have flexibility as I work from home and only have a few calls per day. I have plenty of time to spend with your animals and give them all the love they need. We live in a new neighborhood right across from a lake with access to a beautiful park. We also have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for your animal to run around!
“Lex was the absolute best match for my dogs! I contacted her the night before I needed a walk and she was flexible and agreed to walk them at the last minute! She was on time and my dogs instantly warmed up to her. She walked them for the full hour and provided great updates. Thank you Lex! I’ll definitely reach out again next time I need a walk!”

I got regular updates and I know by the smile on Summer's face in the pics that she was happy with Mochi! Definitely will be returning for my future sitting needs. Thank you Maggie!”
“Darby was amazing with our two pups! They were calm and displayed trust the moment they met her, which meant so much to us. She sent the sweetest photo updates and little stories throughout their stay (couch cuddles, movie night, adventure walks, and exploring her garden). She was also patient with our picky eater, Kona, and made sure she felt encouraged and cared for. Both dogs ate well, slept great, and came home happy and relaxed. We’re so grateful to have found someone who treats our pups like family. We’ll definitely be booking with Darby again!”
“Amanda is amazing! It was my first time using Rover, and I was a bit nervous. But after meeting her, her family, and her dog, I was so happy that I made the decision to choose her! She is so kind, caring, and responsive when it came to watching my boy!”
“I had to leave my dog for a longer period than I ever have before, and I was really nervous about it. That completely changed when I met Jerrie! She was so kind and understanding about my anxiety, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout my trip, she communicated consistently and sent photos, which made such a difference and helped me relax knowing my dog was in good hands. When I picked her up, it was clear my dog was happy to see me, but also that she had truly bonded with Jerrie and loved her. That meant everything to me. I will absolutely be using Jerrie from now on whenever I need to leave my dog. Highly recommend!”
“The best dogsitter EVER!! Lisa is amazing, she will have your family member very comfortable and relaxed!!! My bully enjoyed ever moment with Lisa and family. I will only trust Lisa with my boy!!”
“My dogs ALWAYS enjoy staying with John. My smaller couch potato dog loves his calm household with granddaughter visits. His large, fenced backyard and lots of outdoor time chasing the ball and squirrels accommodates my larger more energetic dog. I’m a repeat client and will definitely board with John again!”
“Bobbi was amazing with our two dogs when we were out of town for a week! She took them out multiple times a day on walks and had several other dogs around to play with them and keep them busy. She sent pictures/videos everyday and they always looked so happy and well taken care of! Will 100% use again if we go out of town! Best Rover experience we’ve had!”
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs, and I really appreciated that she required a meet-and-greet beforehand with her own dogs. It showed me that she genuinely cares about the well-being and safety of every dog in her care—not just filling bookings. She came up with a thoughtful plan to make sure my dog would be comfortable and safe with the other dogs, which gave me so much confidence leaving him with her. Throughout his stay, Jennifer was friendly, communicative, and sent lots of pictures and updates that really put my mind at ease. I could tell my dog was in great hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy dog sitter!”
“This was my first experience for boarding my dog with Noelle. I appreciated how open and flexible she was to doing a meet and greet first, prior to my booking. Her home was very clean and she really cares about the pets she cares for. Great communication and she really treated my dog like she was her own. I appreciated all the updates with photos and videos, and taking my dog on walks. I definitely will be booking with her again for future stays.”
“The boys loved staying here. They have a great home and the other pups they watch are all great with my boys. They get ouside and get out a lot of energy. My pups came home sleepy and happy! 10/10 recommend.”
“Marlena and her family were loving, caring, and communicative during my dogs stay. They sent lots of photos, handled his food aggression with other dogs perfectly, and even helped with training during his stay! He stayed over the holidays so they let him open his presents as well. They truly love and care for animals and have training and experience to do so. I would highly recommend them!”
“Leanne was very professional. Before Finn’s overnight, we had a meet and greet. She had a form for his needs and information. Finn has anxious behaviors, so she asked many questions to make sure his stay was comfortable when he stayed. When Finn had his overnight, she sent multiple updates with pictures. She had toys for finn that he loved and he loved relaxing on her couch. It was a home away from home. We’re very grateful it went so well.”
“Kristine was absolutely amazing! She was so caring and professional with my sweet boy, Marlie. She kept me in the loop with regular updates and pictures of Marlie while he was under her care. She even took a last-minute call for boarding because of a family event. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for boarding in Puyallup and the surrounding areas. I was completely satisfied with her service!”
“Our dog stayed with Dana for a few nights over the weekend and she was great. She was very friendly and accommodating. Our dog had a great time there and was definitely in good hands! We would definitely recommend Dana.”
“James is an awesome sitter!! His property enabled our dogs to explore, roam and have a blast! He sent us pictures and they looked so happy, having fun outside. I also appreciated him sending pictures of them sitting on his couch, so we knew they were being loved on in the home. Highly recommend James!”
“People say they love animals, but not everyone truly does! I believe Kimberly truly loves animals. I feel she treated my puppies like they were hers. I am fairly new to leaving my girls with a sitter, Kimberly put my mind at ease. She sent a lot of updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I will have Kimberly watch Thelma and Louise anytime I need a sitter again.”
