“Laila has made my first experience with Rover the absolute best! Very communicative &sweet person! She will take really good care of your pup! Definitely will be booking again!”

“Kenny is the BEST! Our dog can be very anxious, but Kenny made him so comfy and feel so loved. We got great updates and a nice sleepy pup at pick up. Will absolutely be using him again! Thank you!!”

“Sarah is the absolute best! She and her son treat our pup like family. She’s great about checking in, super accommodating and communicative, obviously experienced and a natural with annimals, and just a wonderful human. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

“Elise and James took such good care of Moss. She got many walks a day, got to play with the neighbor dog, and got lots of cuddling. It was so nice to know she was in such good hands!”

“Leah and Leio (and their kids) were so loving towards Luca and went out of their way to treat him like family during his stay :) We received updates and photos often, which we loved! When I mentioned that Luca likes to look out windows during the day, they made efforts to ensure that he could do just that at their house :) Another thing I appreciated was how much info they asked upfront in our meet and greet in order to meet all of Luca’s needs and understand the manners/rules he follows when he’s at home (e.g. no table food, sitting & waiting before taking his food). This was very considerate and showed a lot of respect for Luca’s norms :) Luca got lots of love, lots of walks, and lots of space to roam during his stay! We would bring Luca back to stay with them in a heartbeat! If you’re looking for a family that will love your dog like their own and do everything they can to make your pup at home while you’re away, Leah and Leio will be the right fit for you.”


“Martha was fabulous with our newly adopted pup, Cedric. We were so nervous about leaving him, but he warmed up to her right away during our meet and greet! She sent regular updates, which really helped ease my anxiety. Cedric had a great time!”

“Recently I relocated to Seattle area from Houston and Vivian is the first dog sitter I work with in Seattle. My dog, 4 year German shepherd Xuri had a great time staying with Vivian. She is very communicative and responsible and has taken great care of Xuri. She sent me pictures everyday about Xuri. I will definitely recommend her to anyone in this area without any reservation.”

“McKenna continues to be an amazing dog sitter! Our Penny just loves visiting her and her dogs, and we always feel confident that she will be well cared for. We’re so thankful to have McKenna close by!”

“Emily did a meet and greet with my nervous dog the day before boarding and he could not have immediately loved her more. The next day he whined and pulled to get to her when we arrived. Emily sent pics and updates during his stay and even made him a jaunty new fashion accessory. 10/10!”


“Christopher went above and beyond by providing multiple updates and photos each day, and checking in when our dogs energy levels seemed to be low (which is normal for our anxious older dog). He set up a meet and greet so we could make sure that our dogs got along before accepting the booking, which I appreciate. 10/10 would book again next time I am in need of a dog-sitter!”

“They were so great with our dog Max. He seemed to have a great time. They sent lots of pics and kept in touch. Would love to use them again next time we are in Seattle.”


“She was amazing! She was so sweet to clean the litter box and litter genie. She also was very responsive and timely with photos of my Frubbles 🥰. My cat was so calm around her.”

“Molly was great! We got plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day. One of our boys is slow to warm up and can be grumbly/barky with new people and she was very patient with him and both dogs seemed to have a great time!”

“Olivia is so amazing! She was super attentive, detail-oriented, and took such good care of our very attention-needy pup. I can tell my dog had the best time at Olivia’s. Highly recommend!”

“Tianci took good care of Bagel! I enjoyed the shared Google photo album very much as they walked Bagel around the city and kindly also took him to the treat store.”

“I'm hesitant to say too many nice things about Maria as I fear it will make her too popular and harder to book with her. :-) We couldn't have found a better place for our pup to stay than at Maria's Little Dog Senior Center. We appreciated that she focuses on smaller, older pups who might need a bit more attention and want a slower pace. We received plenty of texts, photos and videos to assure us that all was well. Above all else, you absolutely get the sense that Maria is doing this simply because she loves dogs and knows there are owners that want a sitter to care for their pet as much as they do. Recommended 1000%!”


“Brenda took wonderful care of our dog, Zelda, during our 4 day trip. Zelda can be a finicky eater and also chews up paper, so leaving her with a caring and attentive Rover really helps us be able to travel with ease. Zelda did great under Brenda's care, and came home happy and healthy. I definitely recommend booking with Brenda and will rebook in the future! Thank you so much!”

“Rachael was great. She provided me regular updates on my pup while he stayed with her, which I very much appreciated. She also responded to any and all of my communications quickly and was very flexible. Would definitely recommend.”


“As always, Maureen took wonderful care of Tex while I was away for the weekend! Maureen has great sensitivity to dogs, and have keen observations on how Tex did. Maureen also has great communication. It’s such a relief to have a great Rover nearby - thank you again, Maureen!”

“Mandy was a great help with our cat while we were away for a week. Super communicative and our normally shy cat seemed to warm up quickly to Mandy. I would definitely recommend and will be reaching out again in the future myself. Thank you, Mandy!”


“Katie was very patient with my shy cat and got him to come out of his hiding place. She was also reliable and a good communicator. I highly recommend her!”


“Siobhan was very easy to communicate with and did a great job keeping us up to date with how our cat was doing. The house was in perfect order when we returned. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Carla came over for a meet and greet in advance and was accommodating with our timing given we had just moved. She was communicative and even brought over her own treats for our cats, one of whom was being scared in our new house so she calmed my nerves by spending extra time searching for him! She’s very friendly and clearly has a lot of experience with cats.”
About: I’ve recently started taking care of pets in my community after losing my lovely dog, Layla, to cancer. Doing so has been healing in ways that I could not have imagined!! I am so excited to continue this journey of love, support and healing. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. I work in office during the week, but close enough to home to allow the pups restroom breaks throughout the day. And of course, spending the evenings playing and snuggling with the doggos. My weekends are free to spend all the time with them. I follow the instructions form the caregiver and also listen to what each pet is telling me. I provide a calm yet playful attitude so that everyone feels comfortable.

“Roh did an amazing job caring for my picky cat! My cat typically takes a bit to warm up to new people, but from Roh’s detailed daily messages and photos, it seemed she was comfortable with her right away! I felt secure in knowing my sweet girl was in the best hands while I was away. I came home to a clean apartment and a happy kitty. I would definitely recommend Roh and will be booking her again in the future!”


About: I grew up with a cat or two always in my home and am now the most desired cat sitter in my friend group. I pay attention and try to understand exactly what a cat needs or wants— they’ll tell you!
“Lee is awesome: reliable, great at communication, and overall a solid pet sitter. It was clear from our meet and greet that Lee loves animals and cares for them. And despite there being a couple of instances of suspicious characters around our house (nothing dangerous happened, thank goodness), Lee took their responsibility seriously and looked after our kitty. Highly recommend.”

“Stephanie took such great care of our kitties while we were gone. She sent thoughtful and detailed updates for each visit and definitely made us feel comfortable with being away. Thank you!”


“Anais was great with our two kittens! She took excellent care of them, while also keeping an eye on our house and plants each drop in. I would strongly recommend her for any cat sitting.”

“Veronica was awesome. She took care of Lunita and his space for several days while we were out of the country. She even bought him treats because he was running low! I’ll definitely work with Veronica again 💛”


“Jennifer was excellent and went above and beyond to take care of our cat. A great example of her care was how she handled our cat eating too quickly and throwing up her food. A good cat sitter would communicate that this happened, but an *excellent* cat sitter would do what Jennifer did: communicated that it happened, made a good suggestion for how she could feed our cat to reduce the chances of it happening again, and then implemented that strategy even though it took extra effort. Will definitely book Jennifer again.”


About: I grew up with cats during high school and have a deep understanding of their unique personalities and needs. From keeping them entertained with play to ensuring they are well-fed and their spaces are clean, I am comfortable managing all aspects of daily care. I am patient, observant, and know how to respect a cat's boundaries while providing the affection they crave. Whether your cat is a high-energy kitten or a mellow senior, I’ll make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away.

About: Cat mom and experienced cat sitter dedicated to providing exceptional care for your feline friends. I offer loving, attentive service with frequent updates and photos, ensuring you stay connected and reassured while your cats are happy, safe, and well-cared for. As a mom of two boy cats I can relate to wanting people to love them as much as you do!
“Mei was available and ready to help us on short notice when our flights were cancelled and we needed extra care, as well as a few additional instructions. Our kitties love her!”

“Jessica is a great pet sitter! I've had the same cat sitter for years, but she was unavailable. Stressful trying to determine who to trust w/my cat who has some anxiety. Jessica was amazing from the beginning at our meet and greet. She provided amazing details and photos during her visits and any of my initial fears quickly subsided. She understands the importance of her role and is incredibly kind and professional. Wouldn't hesitate to book with her again!”

About: I have recently lost my 12 year old English bulldog. While I’m not ready for another companion, I am ready to give love to friendly pets. I have experience with special needs dogs, large breeds, and dogs with special medication needs. I am comfortable with dog-aggressive pets as well. I work full time but have a flexible schedule and often work from home. I am available to care for your pet in your home, and mine as well. Looking forward to meeting your pets! I have flexibility and with proper notice I can accommodate most scheduling needs. I have reliable transportation and often work from home. I am open to discussing your pets needs! I have a clean and pet safe home where your pets are welcome to get on the furniture if they are allowed. I will be happy to use a crate if your animals prefer it, but they are also welcome to roam the house if they won’t destroy furniture. I care for animals as if they were my own, and they will be spoiled when spending time with me.

“Chris has been absolutely amazing. I just moved from across the country with one of my three dogs, and he has been having a hard time adjusting to apartment life (aka screaming his head off). After I got an email from my property manager after my first day of work I was frantically looking for a sitter for the next day. Chris was not only able to accommodate Casper the following day after my request, but also last minute on a weekend for an event I was hosting. I cannot thank Chris enough for his help and for putting up with some of Casper’s antics.”

“Evlyn was so wonderful with my dog Coco and we were lucky she was able to accept the booking despite a last-minute notice. She sent several photos throughout the day and was quick to respond both prior to and during the stay. Communicating with her was so easy and Coco seemed to have a good time with her and her dog Mikey. :) Thank you again Evlyn! We will be returning for sure. :)”

“Lydia took Aggie in at last moment. Aggie is a shy dog but Lydia was able to get her comfortable in her. I loved the regular messages and video she kept sending us. Anytime we are in Seattle she will our go to person to care of Aggie. Thanks again Lydia.”

“Tu was absolutely fantastic with my girl Reggie. After drop off she sent me an update to let me know how she was adjusting to a new place and throughout the day I got pics of my bestie having her new adventure. Would 100% book again!!”

“They were excellent hosts, clearly our lil guy had such a nice time with them, I’ll definitely reach out to them if I were in town again, and need someone to take care of Olaf! The entire family engaged with Olaf and kept him company, can’t recommend them enough!”

About: Hey, we are Rachael and Daniel. We have had dogs our entire lives and have also volunteered at adoption events, fostered animals, and watch friends' dogs all the time - can't get enough! We have a sweet 8 year old Calico who gets along really well with dogs! We also recently rescued Luana from Hawaii about a year ago. Please note we are still getting Luana used to things, so a meet and greet is necessary for boarding. We love all animals from giant crazy puppies to shy senior citizens. If we are walking or watching your pet, you can trust they will gets tons of cuddles and attention, and you will get plenty of updates and pics : ) Rachael works from home for a software company, so we have a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care, and we are happy to customize our schedules to whatever your pet needs. Also, we will donate half of your payment to local shelters as a way to pass it on. Can't wait to meet your pup or kitty! We are both currently working from home so have lots of flexibility when it comes to taking care of animals for walks and outside breaks and feeding. We are more than happy to customize our care to whatever your pet needs (e.g. leash reactive, medical needs, etc.) as every animal is different! For boarding, noting we do have our own sweet pup and cat who get along with most dogs, but we do require a meet and greet to make sure everyone will be happy and comfortable together.
About: Hello! I have been dog and cat sitting for at least 20 years and have several active clients in Seattle currently. I have previously worked for a dog walking and sitting business in Maryland. I have cared for puppies from 6 months through to senior, special needs pups. While no one enjoys it, I am comfortable giving pills, injections, and other medications to both cats and dogs. In my dog walking business I have walked up to four pups at the same time. I love to go on long walks, even in the rain and wind, and can throw a ball for hours! I will take care of your home and your pup with the utmost respect and love. I am a home owner with two kitties and a toddler. We are working on getting them all comfortable with dogs but for the time being we can only subject them to guests for 4 days in a row max (or they may never forgive us). While I haven't found the perfect pup for my life yet, I am very excited to be able to share my house with dogs of all ages for short stints while I'm searching. I work from home and can let pups out to go to the bathroom as needed. I love a lunch walk to get me ready for the afternoon. I have a fenced yard and a patch of grass for regular bathroom breaks. The staircase is gated so we’re always within eyeshot of any canine visitors.
“We are so grateful to have found Todd. He took wonderful care of Kona and made sure she got daily walks and plenty of attention. Kona got along great with Honey, who is such a sweet, chill pup. The two of them did really well together. Todd was always responsive, reliable, and kept us updated. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and are so happy to have found him. We will absolutely continue to use Todd in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.”

“William is awesome!!! My dogs love him. He’s calm and cool nature is perfect for their hyper and crazy personalities. He was very communicative with me through my first time using Rover. My puppies were very happy when I picked them up and they had so much fun that they knocked out by the time we got home. Thanks again!!!”
“Joesph was great to my pup Zeus. He took him on plenty of walks and even cleaned his paws afterwards! He also brushed him out, which I super appreciated. I loved the report card he filled out, very informative and lets me see how much fun Zeus is having through the day. I look forward to when he’s able to watch Zeus again.”

“As always, Mckenna and her mom Shirley took the best care of my old dog Chewie, and he's not easy! Thank you so much, Mckenna and Shirley! I'm always sure Chewie is happy and well taken care of when he's at your house.”

“Olivia was amazing! She was very communicative as this is our first time using rover. She sent super cute photos and kept us updated throughout his stay. Ziggy had an amazing time :)”

About: I grew up with a loving and weird westie I trained myself, and spending plenty of time caring for neighbors pets. I also often petsit for friends in the area. I'm a WFH artist who is primarily either in my studio or in the common space of the house, meaning I'm always accessible when your pet may have a need or just wants to hang out. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of open space for exploration and exercise. The back of the house has plenty of windows for a clear view of the yard in the case i'm not also out there.

About: I have cared for my own pug for over 13 years, so I understand the daily needs of dogs at different stages of life, including senior care. Our home environment is calm and comfortable, which works well for dogs that enjoy a relaxed setting. Both my husband and I work from home most days, so dogs staying with us receive plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and walks throughout the day. We also have a private rooftop area that can be used for quick potty breaks if needed. Because we have a gentle senior pug at home, we typically do best with dogs that are friendly and not extremely high energy. We aim to provide a safe, comfortable place where dogs can relax and feel cared for while their owners are away. Both my husband and I work from home most days, so we are around throughout the day to give dogs attention, regular potty breaks, and walks. This also means dogs are rarely left alone for long periods of time. Our schedule is generally flexible, and we are able to accommodate regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, and walks throughout the day. Because we are home most of the time, we can keep a close eye on the dogs and make sure they are comfortable and well cared for. We provide a calm, safe home environment for dogs. We have a gentle senior pug who is very used to sharing space with other dogs, so we typically do best with dogs that are friendly and not extremely high energy. Our house has a private rooftop area that can be used for quick potty breaks if needed, and we also take dogs out for regular walks. Because we work from home, dogs staying with us receive plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day. We usually host only one guest dog at a time so we can focus on their comfort and make sure they feel relaxed and well cared for during their stay.
About: We have grown up with dogs and have one currently (who loves all other dogs). Live in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced yard. Work from home so always home to take care of your dog. We are an active little family. Always going for walks & hanging out in the fenced backyard. Since we work from home, its perfect to fit in any amount of extra playtime or walks as needed. We have a fenced yard and quiet neighborhood. Since we have a dog, we always have toys and supplies around, but ask that you provide whatever will make them most comfortable!
“Pepe always loves hanging out with bowser, Tien and Jeanyee. They send frequent photos/videos and updates throughout the day too. It’s great to know he’s so well cared for while I’m at work”

About: Most people call me Josh. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I've lived with them for most of my life. I am recently dog-free and I miss having dog energy in my house. I've raised two dogs through basic obedience to adulthood, one with a class, and one largely on my own. I am personally a big believer in the methods described in The Art of Raising a Puppy, because I have had excellent results with their techniques, but will of course prioritize whatever approach is preferred by owners. I am happy to help reinforce any basic obedience your dog may be working on, as well as senior dogs. I am comfortable with a wide range of dog breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Highly reactive dogs are not my favorite, but "highly reactive" can be subjective, so I will consider such dogs on a case by case basis. I am happy to work with dogs of varying activity levels, but extremely high-activity dogs will also be considered on a case-by-case basis. I am currently working from home and am available for dropoff in-home daycare most weekdays and dog boarding (including weekends). My schedule for my dog was three walks a day (morning, afternoon/dinnertime, bedtime) so that is what I'm used to, but I am happy to work with clients to discuss their routine and work with them to agree on an experience that fits their and their dog's needs. I currently have no other animals in my home, so your dog will get my full attention as needed. I don't have a fenced yard, but I am in a residential neighborhood with a good-sized park a block away. I am reasonably close to Seward Park and the Genesee dog park as well.

“Mandy is great with my dogs! She was very patient and had good suggestions for meeting my dog who is reactive to strangers. Showed true care for my pup when I was away.”

About: I didn’t grow up with pets, but as an adult, being around animals has made me genuinely love and appreciate them. Over the past 2 years, I’ve dog-sat for friends on and off, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and keeping their dogs company while they were away. I’m very active and a big kid at heart, so I’m happy to keep up with energetic dogs who love walks, play, and attention. I’m also patient enough to slow down when a dog needs a gentler pace, quiet time, or extra care. I know every pet has their own personality, so I’ll follow your instructions closely, respect your dog’s routine, and keep you updated so you feel comfortable while you’re away. which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and check-ins. I’m mindful about keeping pets safe and comfortable in hot weather, so during the hottest parts of the day I prefer lighter potty breaks, indoor play, or calmer care. When it’s cooler, especially in the evening after the sun goes down, I’m happy to do longer walks, active play, or more exercise for dogs who need it. My goal is to follow your dog’s routine while also paying attention to their comfort, energy level, and safety. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking preferences, medication needs if applicable, and any house rules. I’ll make sure your dog gets attention, playtime, exercise, and calm companionship based on their personality and routine. I’m also respectful of your home and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I am a former dog-mom looking to host doggos in our home for a reminder of the joys of dog companionship without the long-term commitment. Our 80lb black lab died as an elderly pup a few years ago and it has taken some time for us to be ready to welcome another pup into our home. Our former dog, Maddie, struggled with dog-aggression, leash-reactivity, and general anxiety. I have A LOT of experience with clicker training and positive training methods for managing dog anxiety, stress, and aggression towards other dogs. I'm also experienced in watching for signs of dog stress around kiddos. I have been dog-sitting for friends since we lost our pup and am ready to open my home to the broader world of dogs in need of care. I currently work from home full-time. I transport my son to/from school which takes me out of the home for 40-90 minutes twice/day in the morning and afternoon M-F. I’m occasionally away from the house 4-6 hours on Sat/Sun when a dog is boarding with me— if this is an issue for your dog, please let me know ahead of time so I can plan for that. I have a fenced yard, a partner, and a 8 year old son. Our home would be appropriate for dogs who are comfortable with respectful older kids.

“Nancy is great! She is clearly very good with dogs, and I appreciate that she has experience with handling large, leash-reactive dogs. She was very flexible when I requested a last minute walk and even squeezed in a meet and greet to make sure my dog recognized her and felt comfortable. She was communicative and shared pictures and an update on how the walk went. I recommend her and would definitely hire again. Thanks!”

“Absolutely 5 stars! Always punctual and super communicative with updates and photos. Amazing with our strong dog who needs a confident hand around triggers. Our pup comes home happy and tired every time. We trust Peter completely and can't recommend him enough!”


“Ash took amazing care of my 65-lb dog Coco, walking her twice a day during a trip. She handled some big anxiety that cropped up with kindness and and kept me well updated along the way. Thanks for being such a loving support!”

“Siobhan is prompt, highly communicative, friendly and was great with my pup who can sometimes be a stubborn walker! Definitely recommend reaching out to her for your pet’s needs!”

About: Hi all, I have started to travel full-time since graduating college and taking on a variety of remote, freelance, and seasonal positions. 🏠 I am visiting my friends and working at some art events in and around Seattle, and am in search of pet sitting and house sitting positions to take on during my time in town. ✈️ I adore cats and dogs 🐾, have extensive experience caring for cats and kittens of various levels of socialization 🐈, and have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends while working from my laptop. 💻 I’m also a big fan of plants and have had a garden on every balcony of every apartment I’ve ever lived in! 🌱 I work in art, writing, and event production and have a background volunteering in civil legal aid and working in public arts. I’m passionate about community building, and I want to retain strong ties to my community in Bellingham as I begin this explorational chapter of my life. My availability is clearly and accurately visible on my Rover calendar. Thanks so much for your time, and I hope to connect! More about my pet care experience: I have experience with a variety of cats at different levels of socialization, age range (kittens included), and behavior. I’m the go-to person when my friends need a cat sitter (or just cat advice)! I watched my neighbor’s beagle in sixth grade and have experience dog sitting off-and-on ever since; I’m confident with smaller and small-to-medium dogs but have less experience with big dogs. I strive to creative meaningful interactions between pets, their humans, and I; in doing so, I follow through on excellent care—and enjoy the opportunity to spend time with furry friends! I work part-time and sometimes travel for art and event production work, so (as you’ll see in my calendar) my availability fluctuates. On my available days, I’m always free to stop by for both a morning and an evening visit. I am extremely respectful of other peoples’ spaces when I’m visiting, I’m a very tidy person, and I believe in leaving everywhere better than I found it. This extends to pets’ homes during overnight visits!
“Mac was quick to respond on short notice and made fast friends with our dog. He happily accommodated our special requests and the years of experience caring for other people's pets were evident. Would book again without hesitation.”

“Jennifer is wonderful! She took our pup on walks and to the dog park when she sensed she needed some time to run around :) really appreciate her communicativeness!”

About: Passionate and dedicated pet sitter with years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. Committed to providing personalized, loving attention to ensure your furry friends feel safe and cherished while you're away. Complete with reliable communication, frequent photos and updates. Trustworthy, attentive, and reliable—your pets are in great hands! I currently work some days at home, and some days out of the home, making it easy to manage pet and home care. If caring for dogs, I love to bring them alone on adventures if able. I also enjoy days in the home with lots of furry friend snuggles. Friendly pet and house sitter committed to keeping your pets safe and loved. I ensure the house stays very clean and tidy and am happy to handle any other agreed-upon tasks. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can see how well your pets are doing while you’re away.
“First non-family member to walk our reactive dog! Jessica understands how to interact with dogs who are easily triggered. She’s a total pro. I’m super happy we were able to connect, and I’ll definitely be requesting her help again.”

About: I am an avid dog lover. I've delt with stubborn puppies and energetic dogs. I have experience walking and house sitting dogs, and would love to continue to do so. I can do early and late evenings Monday through Friday. Mornings are a possibility, however, we would just need to communicate times. Weekends I'm unavailable. I have a private balcony and a gate courtyard for play. At client's home, I follow your rules and any instructions required -- this includes for walks as well. I try and provide attention in play, introducing them to new games and areas.

“Sarah is the absolute best! She and her son treat our pup like family. She’s great about checking in, super accommodating and communicative, obviously experienced and a natural with annimals, and just a wonderful human. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

“Elise and James took such good care of Moss. She got many walks a day, got to play with the neighbor dog, and got lots of cuddling. It was so nice to know she was in such good hands!”

“Leah and Leio (and their kids) were so loving towards Luca and went out of their way to treat him like family during his stay :) We received updates and photos often, which we loved! When I mentioned that Luca likes to look out windows during the day, they made efforts to ensure that he could do just that at their house :) Another thing I appreciated was how much info they asked upfront in our meet and greet in order to meet all of Luca’s needs and understand the manners/rules he follows when he’s at home (e.g. no table food, sitting & waiting before taking his food). This was very considerate and showed a lot of respect for Luca’s norms :) Luca got lots of love, lots of walks, and lots of space to roam during his stay! We would bring Luca back to stay with them in a heartbeat! If you’re looking for a family that will love your dog like their own and do everything they can to make your pup at home while you’re away, Leah and Leio will be the right fit for you.”

“Recently I relocated to Seattle area from Houston and Vivian is the first dog sitter I work with in Seattle. My dog, 4 year German shepherd Xuri had a great time staying with Vivian. She is very communicative and responsible and has taken great care of Xuri. She sent me pictures everyday about Xuri. I will definitely recommend her to anyone in this area without any reservation.”

“They were so great with our dog Max. He seemed to have a great time. They sent lots of pics and kept in touch. Would love to use them again next time we are in Seattle.”

“Molly was great! We got plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day. One of our boys is slow to warm up and can be grumbly/barky with new people and she was very patient with him and both dogs seemed to have a great time!”


“Thank you so much for helping us out in such a pinch and also for being such an incredible friend to our pups. We can get nervous every time we need to go out of town hoping our dogs will do well and we can tell they thrived with you. Thanks for taking care of them! Will be back again”

“Jospeh was friendly and flexible with drop off and pick up. We had some plane issues and he was very understanding. He sent regular updates and took good care of Tucker. He even gave him a good brush and if you have a husky you know what that entails. Thank you.”

“Nichole and Andrew hosted Reg for the long weekend and I'm so happy he got to stay with them. Nichole and Andrew were great communicators, sending pics throughout the stay keeping me updated. When I picked up Reg, it was like he didn't want to leave! Reg will definitely be back to stay with Nichole and Andrew and their family!”

“My three pups had an amazing time with Tu. I appreciated the ease of communication prior to booking and her availability to address and answer all of my questions. She shared photos throughout my pups stay with her and made sure to let me know everyday that they were doing just fine. I recommend her and will certainly book with her again in the future.”


“Kandice is amazing and we feel so lucky to have found her! My dog is happy with her and her family, and Kandice is fabulous about updates and doling out the TLC while we are gone. We could not be happier!!”

“We booked Randsell again for a 6-day stay after a great daycare experience, and we’re so glad we did. She took such great care of our dogs and kept us updated with lots of sweet photos and videos. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly understood their personalities. One of our dogs can be slow to warm up, but he became comfortable with her so quickly, which meant a lot to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”


“Kirsten was gracious enough to take Biscuit with less than 1 week notice because she had the availability. Thank you for doing the meet-and-greet with such short notice as well as allowing me to extend a day when I had to stay on my trip longer. Most importantly Biscuit was happy when I picked her up!”


“Ashley took awesome care of and provided a calm, happy environment for my animal-reactive senior pittie while also rolling with my dog's developing medical/prescription needs in the leadup to her stay. Lots of updates and snuggle photos let me know my girl was well loved while I was gone for the week. Very grateful for such quality care and will definitely be reaching out for future boarding needs!”


“Another wonderful stay with Milana! Our dog Rigby never wants to come home. We enjoy our travels more knowing Rigby is in very good hands while we are away!”
“Our pup had the best stay with Stephanie and Scotty! They were great about accommodating all of my and my husband’s requests, especially because our girl can be anxious around new environments and people. Frequent updates kept us at ease, and we look forward to booking with them again very soon!”


“Daria was wonderful with our dog while we were away for holiday travel. She was so sweet to work with us through schedule changes and delayed flight. We highly recommend Daria!”


“Gregg is so kind and awesome with doggos! He was great with Leo, giving him lots of walks and time playing with the ball. Gregg shared regular updates and it was clear Leo was in a safe, fun place. Thank you!!”
