“Carl is an amazing sitter! Very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and I could tell our boy was very comfortable and having a great time while we were gone. Carl’s space is fantastic for any pets, our dog loved being there. I will absolutely reach out to Carl first in the future for any sitting needs.”
“Tianci was an amazing host for Cannoli! The level of care and attention to detail that she and her husband gave during his stay was nothing short of impeccable. They took Cannoli on tons of walks, showered him with toys and treats, and gave him an adorable bath and spa-treatment. I highly recommend Tianci as a sitter!!!”
“Bentley had his own vacation while we took ours! Devan was communicative and make sure to keep my little guy active. Bentley even cried when he left he had so much fun! I highly recommend!”
“Ana was wonderful! Every day she sent me photos and comment about the walks and beach visits she had done with Lucy. She also took extra care to ask about Lucy's medications and how best to keep Lucy cool on a couple of unusually hot days. Her young daughter gave Lucy lots of attention. When I picked Lucy up, I got the impression she would have been happy to stay longer! I highly recommend Ana and will definitely ask her to host Lucy again in the future.”
“Dani & Joy took great care with my pup. In fact I think my little dog fell in love with them! Updates were excellent & as were pictures! They are kind, communicative and very professional… we will be using their service repeatedly! They put me & this lil girl completely at ease. Thank you so much Dani & Joy!”
“Anna was great! She was really communicative and so accommodating, especially on short notice. Dakota warmed up to her quickly and also got along really well with her dog, Cooper. I felt completely comfortable leaving Dakota with her and would definitely book with Anna again.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Mengyuan and Matt are honestly one of the best sitters in Seattle, hands down. Their communication is great both before the stay and during it, they always get back to me super fast which puts my mind at ease. They send tons of photos every single day without me even having to ask, which I love. You can tell my dog is having the time of her life, she gets so excited every time we pull up to drop her off, which says everything you need to know lol. Cant recommend them enough!”
“My active dog had playtime and company during a 10day trip I took. She was happy and tired when I picked her up and she made new puppy friends! Wendy kept me updated with photos and videos and was very easy to contact and arrange pick up and drop off. She knows how dogs personalities effect how they play and spent the time to do a meet and greet with her dogs to make sure it was a good fit. Their house is fitted with lots of toys, a big window for the the dogs to look out of and a great fenced yard. 10/10 would recommend!!!!!”
“Ponyo has been our go to sitter for watching our 85 lb black lab when we travel. Our dog has stayed with her multiple times. Trooper just spent 2 weeks at her house and had a great time playing with her whole family! Ponyo is very conscientious and provides great care. She is willing to send you a daily diary of photos or just a few based on your desires. I would not hesitate to have her care for your furry friend.”
“Brandon was a great communicator and sent regular updates of the dogs having a great time. He was punctual with drop off and pickup times and went out of his way to take them on fun walks and to make sure they were extra comfy. They came home happy!”
“Ken and Jennifer were amazing with our pup! I could tell that they really cared about him, and kept us updated with lots of great videos and photos. We will definitely be back.”
“My 2 year old Springer Spaniel Boxer mix, Edie, had a wonderful time with Jana and her family! When I normally leave Edie at her doggy daycare to travel, she barely eats and seems anxious when I come to pick her up. Not the case this time! Edie ate all the food I had packed for her along with all the treats! She loved running around and puppy style wrestling with Hazel! Jana gave me updates twice a day with pictures and videos of the ladies playing. I truly do believe that Edie had a dog vacay with Hazel and Jana!”
“She was lovely and flexible! My dog had never been boarded before and it went beautifully. Then, when my flight got canceled she was willing to extend his stay.”
“Kevin and his partner were fantastic! They took excellent care of Edgar while I was gone, and pampered him to boot! Edgar was very sad to leave Kevin's side, and he had to be carried out.”
“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.”
“Janet was AMAZING with my high-energy pup, Ducky. She took her on multiple outings per day, to both Magnuson dog park and Discovery park, and made sure my baby got plenty of excercise, which is exactly what I want in a dog sitter. She also did a great job checking in with me and sending lots of pictures. She has a talent for photography and has now taken some of the best pictures of my dog that I own 😅. Will definitely be booking with Janet again!”

“Booked with Sarah for a few drop-in visits with my cat who needed some medication administered while I was away. Sarah was very communicative, flexible, and kind. I felt very comfortable having my cat in her care and would book her again in the future!”
About: I’ve had multiple cats at a time my whole life. Unfortunately I do not have a passion for deep-cleaning litter boxes 😆 but I would care for your kitties as if they were my own. I have had personal experience with high maintenance and elderly cats. I’ve administered topical and oral medication to cats and dogs alike.
“If I could give 100 starts to Jamie I would:) My cat loves Jamie and she is typically very wary of new people. Jamie sends pictures and updates and takes such good care of things. Jamie is also super knowledgeable on all things cats. I have had Jamie visit it in the past and have already booked future visits with her.”
“Miriam was a fantastic sitter for our kitties. One of our cat loves attention and the other is a little slower to warm up, and she gave both the attention and space they needed to feel comfortable with her. Her updates were detailed and had great pictures that reassured us the cats were doing well. When we came home our apartment was in perfect shape and the cats were healthy and happy. We will absolutely be booking with her again when we need a sitter!”
“Rebooked with Maryia for my short trip, great communication as always and thank you for taking such good care of my cat! So happy she remembers and likes you so much 😊”
About: I grew up with a Ragdoll and currently cat-sit my partner’s rescue cat regularly, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities and routines. I’m happy to handle feeding, litter boxes, playtime, brushing, and of course lots of cuddles (when they’re wanted!). I’m patient with shy or independent cats and love taking the time to earn their trust.
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Michael was absolutely amazing and a consummate professional. He answered my query within the hour and we confirmed everything very quickly. Catthew loved his care I will be requesting Michael’s care again for sure. Consider me a repeat customer!”
“Was very attentive and caring for my kitty. Very pro-active about learning everything to give the best experience possible for your pets. I plan to book again soon!”
About: I currently care for pets for a few neighbors in my condo building and love doing it. What ever your pet's needs and no matter how intricate your care instructions are, I will do my best to follow them. Also experienced administering medicine for pets, especially cats.
“Kennedy was super helpful in dropping in to visit Hopper when I was out of town for a few days. She was reliable and communicative, will definitely be booking her again and would recommend!”
“Five stars for Marta! She was so reliable when we ran into a technical issue with the door, and she handled it perfectly so Sakura didn't miss his visit. She took great care of him and played with him a lot, I could tell he was in great hands. Thank you for being so patient and and caring, and for making Sakura’s day so much fun and happy!!”
“As usual, Marie provided excellent care of cheddar. After a recent move, cheddar was reassured to have her normal pet sitter visit. She loves playtime and snuggles with Marie.”
“Val is awesome! Our 17 year old cat is difficult and set in her ways to say the least. Val gave us very detailed updates with each visit. We were able to vacation stress free because we knew Athena was in good hands. She took time to clean dishes and even vacuum throughout the visit. It was right before Christmas and she even made sure all of our packages made it inside safely! We will definitely schedule with Val for future trips. Thank you!”
“Dalara took wonderful care of my cat while I was out of town. My cat is normally super shy and won’t come out for strangers but actually warmed up to Dalara and came out to hang out! Dalara is great and super responsive. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“This is the first time that Natalie has taken care of my kitties and I'd definitely have her back. Fabulous communicator - kitties and house in great shape upon my return.”

“Hands down the best sitter I’ve found in this city. Erica is super communicative and friendly. She has a lot of experience with dogs and she understands their behaviors well. My dog picked up on her warm energy and I could tell she had a great time. Can’t recommend Erica enough!”
“Zhongni was reliable, attentive, and took great care in creating a fun and comfortable space for Benji. I appreciated the walks and photo updates. Benji was sad to leave! We hope to see Zhongni again soon!”
“Mariia was great! This was our first time leaving Zoey with her and after meeting her, we felt so reassured that Zoey would be safe and happy. We got lots of pics and Zoey looked like she was having a great time! We will definitely be booking with Mariia again :)”
About: I've spent years caring for all kinds of animals—from dogs and cats to reptiles and small mammals—and have fostered both short- and long-term pets, helping every one of them find a loving forever home. Since I work from home, your pup will rarely be alone. We enjoy walks along the water, lots of playtime, and indoor adventures in our building's dog-friendly play area. My sidekick is Georgia, my English Bulldog, who has never met a dog she didn't love. She's playful, cuddly, and always happy to make new friends. My goal is simple: keep your dog safe, active, loved, and spoiled with attention while you're away—so you can relax knowing they're having a vacation too!
“Andy is so amazing! She is always so positive when she greets me at pick up and drop off. She was able to start watching my dog Obi on a short notice when my pet care method changed suddenly. She was accommodating and flexible with the hours based on my needs. She informs me of any changes in his health or behavior. She also tried multiple methods to make my anxious pup more comfortable with his separation anxiety. My dog absolutely loves her and I am so happy that I have her as a resource for my pet care needs. I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hi, I’m Jessica! I have grown up with all sorts of animals: dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and cows. Currently, I am an Aunt to one energetic golden retriever and 2 cats. Over the past 5 years I have watched dogs and cats in the city for friends and co workers and would love to watch your fur baby too! I have experience with caring for dogs with anxiety and elderly pets. I am a pretty active person who loves hiking and checking out new places in the city. I work full time from home. Usually my work hours are set in CST so I start early and end early afternoon, leaving a very flexible schedule with lots of time and energy to spend with your pets! I am very easy to communicate with and love spending time outside. I am easy to work with whether it’s for a quick check in, walks while you are away or reliable boarding. I live in an apartment but there are fenced in pet areas on the property. I also own a vehicle to take pets to the park, drop off/pick up or sitting at your home. I have worked in hospitality for over 15+ years. I know exceptional care is all about trust, attention to detail, and personalized service. I’ll treat your beloved pets with the same level of care and dedication we provide to guests at our five star properties.
“Needed a sitter for an afternoon for my curmudgeonly senior pup. Devan was fantastic- warm, welcoming, responsive, and responsible. Fang had a good time, and we will definitely request Devan’s pup-sitting services again!”
About: I may be new to Rover, but I’m far from new to caring for dogs. I’ve spent years looking after my own pup and pet sitting for friends and family, all out of a genuine love for animals. For me, this isn’t a side hustle; it’s something I truly enjoy. I have a Shih Tzu of my own named Cooper, who is my whole world. When it comes to walks, I’m a firm believer in dog-centered outings. Want to sprint? Let’s go. Need five minutes to thoroughly investigate that one bush? Take your time. We move at your dog’s pace, in your dog’s direction, because that’s what makes a walk genuinely enriching, not just exercise. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and cuddles. I’ll treat them exactly like I treat Cooper, like family. You can expect regular photo updates if I’m watching your pup, I know firsthand how hard it is to be away from your baby and how it can put a damper on your trip thinking about them missing you. I work from home full-time, which means your pet gets attention throughout the entire day, not just before and after a 9-to-5. No long stretches alone, no waiting until evening for a walk. I’m based in Lower Queen Anne and live in a cozy apartment with my boyfriend and our Shih Tzu Cooper. No children, no yard, but don’t let that last part worry you. Cooper and I do at least one 2.5-mile walk every day, and if I’m watching your dog, they can expect the same. Queen Anne has wonderful walkable streets and green spaces, so there’s plenty to explore.
About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life. I grew up with two Boxers and a Husky, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Today, I’m the proud dog dad of Oscar, my Cavapoo, who I absolutely adore. He’s a big part of my life, and taking care of him has given me plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, keeping a routine, and making sure a dog feels safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently home during the day, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your dog the attention they deserve. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog with someone else, and I’ll treat your pup like one of my own, with lots of attention, walks, playtime, and affection. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play, or prefers to relax and cuddle, I’ll make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and fun time while you’re away. I work from home, so I’m home every day and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also very active and love going on walks, so your pup will have plenty of opportunities for exercise, fresh air, and playtime. I’m happy to work around your dog’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while they’re with me. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I keep a clean and calm environment, follow each pet’s routine and any instructions from their owner, and make sure they always have fresh water, regular walks, and plenty of attention. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality and needs, and I never leave a pet unsupervised in situations where they could be at risk. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your pup is doing while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog with the same care and love I give my own dog, Oscar.
“Thu was wonderful with our pup! She was our hero, stepping up and watching him after a last minute cancellation! She took Bodie on so many adventures and it was so evident he was cared for a loved all day. We would love to have her watch him again!”
“Antonio watched my dog with not even a 12 hour notice. He was kind and patient with my young pup and demonstrated skills consistent with a quality caretaker for my dog. He provided updates and pictures throughout the day and got my dog some much needed exercise. I am grateful he was able to help me in a time of need. His dog Rubie is a sweetheart too and was patient with my 1.5 year old pup.”
“We are so glad to have found Jessie. She really cared for Yuki and followed her routine well. Yuki has seemed to warm up to her quickly. Pepper her doggie was the perfect bestie for my girl Yuki and they looked like they had so much fun too. I will definitely return and recommend her everytime.”
“Tiffany is so amazing! When I was in a time bind, she was able to accommodate for my my pup Henny last minute and truly provided the best care for Henny the day of. From play, to walks, to water breaks, she was diligent about providing updates to me throughout the day. This is the first time I’ve used Rover and it was such a positive experience through Tiffany, I would not hesitate to book again with her. My pup for sure loves her and cannot wait til the next time he gets to visit. Thank you Tiffany!”
“Randsell was wonderful with our dogs. She communicated clearly, was flexible and thoughtful, and clearly took the time to understand our dogs and their personalities. We felt very comfortable leaving them with her and really appreciated the care she gave them.”
About: Several years of watching friend's and family's dogs and cats! Have fostered dogs and I nursed my rescue puppy back to perfect health. I have had her for 4 years now.

I am flexible with dropoff and can even provide pickup/dropoff within a reasonable distance of Seattle. I will tailor my schedule to accommodate your pup's bathroom schedule. In my home, the dogs are allowed everywhere. I can crate the dog if necessary. We can do a meet and greet so that your dog can get comfortable with me and my pup. I will tailor my care to your pup!

“Andy was great! He met us beaucoup early in the AM on a weekend to come and pick our puppy up from a hotel where we were catching a tour bus. He then sent copious videos for our perusal throughout the day, so we could see our puppers having as much fun as we were having on tour. Andy was very accommodating and communicative about both pickup and drop-off times too — highly recommend!”
“Pablo and Patricia were amazing! They were able to watch Bear on very short notice, were super kind and communicative, and took great care of him. I really appreciate them helping out last minute. Thank you both!”
About: First Hill — minutes from downtown • weekday day care for office workers • private-room setup for reactive dogs. I grew up in a village in Turkey where dogs were part of everyday life we always had our own dogs, and caring for animals was something I learned as a child, not from books. Since then, animals have never left my life: for years I cared for my son's dog as if he were my own, and today I still help care for my other son's dog here in Seattle every week feeding, walking, playtime, and plenty of affection. I'm a retired grandmother, so I'm never in a rush; your pet gets my calm, full attention on every visit. I'm reliable, always on time, and I'm happy to send photos and updates from each visit. My English is simple but I always understand care instructions clearly. It would be my joy to care for your furry family member. I'm retired, so pet care fits perfectly into my daily life I have a flexible schedule and I'm available seven days a week, morning to evening. I'm never in a rush between visits: your pet always gets my full time and attention. I already care for my son's dog here in Seattle every week, so regular visits are a natural part of my routine.

“Luciana was simply amazing. She took the time to meet our puppy in advance and consider fit with other dogs she watches, then took amazing care to integrate him with her "pack". She was extremely communicative and shared many pictures each day. She was very thoughtful in getting to know our dog and provide conditions and guidance that brought out the best in him.”

Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I've been caring for dogs for nearly 20 years. Growing up with three family dogs taught me how to care for pets through every stage of life. From daily walks and playtime to swimming, feeding, and plenty of affection. I also grew up in a neighborhood full of dogs and regularly walked, checked in on, and cared for neighbors' pets while their families were away. Friends and family have continued to trust me with their pets over the years, and for four years I lived with my roommate's dog, helping with daily care and treating him like he was my own. I'm comfortable following routines, adapting to different personalities and energy levels, and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. As a freelance photographer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I'm typically available Monday through Friday between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for walks and drop-in visits, and I'm often able to accommodate weekend requests as well. Whether your dog is ready for a long walk or your cat just needs some company and care while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. You can also expect thoughtful updates and plenty of photos during each visit. I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy while you're away! I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll always respect your space, follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, and care for your home with the same attention and respect I would my own. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning up after walks, scooping the litter box, or simply spending quality time with your pet, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“Sarah was amazing with my dog! He was very anxious and had some adjustment issues, and she communicated with me through it all and was very patient managing through it. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up with a Maltese-Shih Tzu mix, so I’ve had experience caring for dogs from a young age. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping up with your dog’s usual routine. While most of my experience has been with smaller dogs, I’m also comfortable caring for friendly medium and larger dogs and would love having a walking buddy! My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m completely free on Mondays! I can easily stop by for check-ins, feeding, walks, and some quality time with your pet. I’m also happy to have pets stay with me, including overnight, if you prefer a more home-away-from-home experience. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with a designated pet relief area, and my neighborhood is very walkable with plenty of options for walks and outdoor time. I’ll always follow each owner’s instructions and their pet’s usual routine closely, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home.
About: I have experience with dog sitting for a family member on and off if they were out for the day or on a trip out of town for a longer period of time. I also sat for a friend that has both a cat and a dog. My other skills include babysitting (I have done this while dog sitting at the same time) and some experience in senior home care. For a period of 6 months, I took care of another family member managing their tube-feeding, medications, and working together with the nurse team to communicate updates, issues and check in on appointments. I do work online, currently building a business. I try to schedule my work around typical business hours (between 8am-5pm) but can adjust around for pet care sits or visits since I'm remote. I do most tasks Monday-Friday with the most availability being on the weekends, most specifically Saturdays. I am very good with taking directions on pets' needs. If they have a certain schedule or specialized regimen, I make sure to keep track and make sure the same rhythm is kept as if the owner is still with them. I also respect the ground rules of a client's home knowing that they are trusting to me by allowing me the visit. I also like learning the different personalities so I'd like to try and bond with the pets even if it's for a short time!
About: I have a had a dog since I was child, and became the real carer for my dog when I was in high school. I fed him morning and night, took him on daily walks (occasional hikes) and brushed and bathed him. I have dealt with dogs who do not respond well to my dog and deal with it in a civil manner. I can provide the dogs it’s basic needs along with more love than they could ever imagine! I love to go walking/running, so why not use that hobby to make some furry friends happy! I am going to be super free in the summer with my schedule and would love to walk some dogs in that free time that I have! I care for pets by making sure they have the first basic need: water and being fed. Next I will provide them with love and affection: the second basic need!
“Jana definitely helped me out during a week where I had long work hours. She was able to come by daily at the same time, walk my dog, send me updates and pictures, and also fed my dog after the walk. I highly recommend using Jana for any dog walking services!”
“Adam is responsive, caring and attentive! He goes above and beyond the call of duty (eg walked Finn for an extra 15 minutes to let him enjoy the weather) I would recommend him to anyone who loved their pup!”

About: Recently retired and petless at the moment, although I have almost always had a dog. I enjoy getting to know the personalities and needs of dogs and participating in their daily care needs, whether walking for exercise or potty breaks, socializing at home or the park, or ensuring they are fed and cared for when you aren’t available. I live in Belltown, so I’m available in adjacent neighborhoods of LQA, SLU, or downtown areas. Recently retired so finding ways to contribute after my career in education and academic administration. I’m active and in my late 50s with a flexible schedule. Happy to chat or negotiate for ongoing clients. I am committed to protecting, caring for, and understanding your pet and I value being entrusted with the care of this member of your family.
“This is the second time we have used Akiko and for a second time she has exceeded our expectations. At the risk of making her too popular, at least amongst discerning pet parents, I cannot recommend Akiko more highly. She is a delight to work with, a delight to communicate with and the dogs are always improved when we return. That is impressive in itself because our dogs are practically perfect in every way already. ;-) In a nutshell: you would be very fortunate to book Akiko for dog walking or house sitting. Very fortunate indeed.”
“Erin is so reliable and always goes above and beyond. I’m so happy I’ve finally found someone I can trust and don’t have to worry about with my dog! I’ve been using her weekly since our first walk :)”
“Alex was great! Extremely professional, friendly and communicative. Sent me updates during the walk and after the walk as well. Toci was so excited to meet him and I could tell that she really enjoyed her time with him! I will definitely be reaching out to him again :)”
About: I love animals of all walks of life and personally own two large dogs and two cats. I have also volunteered 500+ combined hours between a horse rescue called the Equine Project and the Tacoma and Auburn Valley Humane Societies. I can take dogs on short or long walks, runs, and hikes, can handle all sizes and ages of animal, and know how to and am able to groom, pet sit, and train for a negotiable additional cost. I recently graduated from Pacific Lutheran University earning a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and am currently working remotely. I love working with animals and because of my flexible working conditions I am able to stay with the animals I’m caring for full-time. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your fluffy companion. I am currently continuing my education online and working remotely, so I have complete flexibility in my schedule! I love animals and have been working as a pet sitter for years and love this work. I try to maintain the routine that an animal normally has as much as I can. I like to meet an animal where they’re at, if they have a lot of energy I’ll provide enrichment, walks, and engage with them often, if they’re lower energy we’ll hang out and I’ll provide as much snuggling as they’re interested in!
“Ludo, who I adopted two months ago, has been adjusting and having some accidents. Bruce has been so communicative and has cleaned up his accidents even though I absolutely do not expect him to and have not asked him to. I cannot express how grateful and relieved I am to have him coming to walk Ludo while I am working. I know my special needs dog, who has seizures, is in great hands!!!!”
About: I have taken care of family dogs for many years, and have raised my own two Golden Retrievers from 8 weeks old. I have always loved animals and love learning how to communicate with them. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can work with whatever requirements you have. I also live downtown with a car, so I can drive to you. I am happy to take your dog for a walk, give them pets/cuddles in your home, or play with them in your yard! I am comfortable walking multiple dogs at once (if you have more than one) or can take your pups for individual walks if needed. I will treat your animals as if they were my own!

“Carl is an amazing sitter! Very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and I could tell our boy was very comfortable and having a great time while we were gone. Carl’s space is fantastic for any pets, our dog loved being there. I will absolutely reach out to Carl first in the future for any sitting needs.”
“Ana was wonderful! Every day she sent me photos and comment about the walks and beach visits she had done with Lucy. She also took extra care to ask about Lucy's medications and how best to keep Lucy cool on a couple of unusually hot days. Her young daughter gave Lucy lots of attention. When I picked Lucy up, I got the impression she would have been happy to stay longer! I highly recommend Ana and will definitely ask her to host Lucy again in the future.”
“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.”
“Ponyo has been our go to sitter for watching our 85 lb black lab when we travel. Our dog has stayed with her multiple times. Trooper just spent 2 weeks at her house and had a great time playing with her whole family! Ponyo is very conscientious and provides great care. She is willing to send you a daily diary of photos or just a few based on your desires. I would not hesitate to have her care for your furry friend.”
“Ken and Jennifer were amazing with our pup! I could tell that they really cared about him, and kept us updated with lots of great videos and photos. We will definitely be back.”
“My 2 year old Springer Spaniel Boxer mix, Edie, had a wonderful time with Jana and her family! When I normally leave Edie at her doggy daycare to travel, she barely eats and seems anxious when I come to pick her up. Not the case this time! Edie ate all the food I had packed for her along with all the treats! She loved running around and puppy style wrestling with Hazel! Jana gave me updates twice a day with pictures and videos of the ladies playing. I truly do believe that Edie had a dog vacay with Hazel and Jana!”
“Janet was AMAZING with my high-energy pup, Ducky. She took her on multiple outings per day, to both Magnuson dog park and Discovery park, and made sure my baby got plenty of excercise, which is exactly what I want in a dog sitter. She also did a great job checking in with me and sending lots of pictures. She has a talent for photography and has now taken some of the best pictures of my dog that I own 😅. Will definitely be booking with Janet again!”
“Andrea was wonderful with my Sadie! She sent pictures several times a day and took Sadie to play with several other dogs! I really appreciate how responsive and thorough she was. I’d love to have Andrea watch Sadie again for future needs!”
“Joesph was an awesome dog sitter for Sherlock! He's super flexible with pickup/dropoff and arranged a meet and greet very quickly for our last minute stay request. It looked like Sherlock had a great time and he kept me updated all weekend. Would highly recommend Joesph and look forward to Sherlock staying with him again sometime!”
“Prompt communication and kept me updated with lots of photos and videos! My pup was happy and lots of play time! I'll definitely book again when I need a sitter!”
“They were very excited to watch Pepper. These are Dog People who stopped at nothing to make sure Pepper was well exercised and well taken care of. Will be booking with them again”
“Adam was super responsive and took great care of boomer, on short notice no less. He made sure to get all the info for care on boomer at a meet and greet and was very communicative! I could tell boomer was happy and well taken care of when I picked her up. Would def recommend Adam for anyone looking for exceptional care!”
“Tiffany was the absolute best! She gave me timely, detailed updates for every day Maya was with her. When I got stuck out of the country for two additional days, Tiffany stepped up and was able to accommodate the last-minute change. I highly recommend her for any and all pet care, and will definitely be hiring her again.”
“Erica was fantastic! She took great care of Georgia. She had so much fun, and was looking for them when she came home. I would absolutely recommend Erica for your pet sitting and daycare needs.”
“Alexa was a fantastic care taker to my two border collies. I got frequent pictures and videos and it was clear my dogs settled in early! They were right at home. Alexa was incredibly communicative throughout their stay and I would absolutely use her again in the future. Your pets would be lucky to stay with her!”
“Allison was so great with my dog. I could tell my dog had a good time with her. I received a lot of photos so I felt good about leaving Zeta with her and will definitely book again :)”
“Kandice was an incredible care giver for my sweet Sidney. She sent lots of pictures and videos of him having the time of his life running around with his new friends. She treated him like he was another family member. Could not have asked for a better experience for my first night away from my baby. Will definitely be back!”
“Andy provided superb care for my aging poodle mix while I was out of town. Andy was communicative, flexible, and extremely conscientious. My dog was calm at drop-off and when I picked him up. I was able to relax and not worry about how my dog was doing. I recommend Andy without hesitation!”
