“So great with her!! My dog is pretty anxious but he was so kind about it, and she warmed up to him quickly. He even took her to a dog park and from the videos he sent they had a blast. Would definitely book again!”

“My dogs had a wonderful time at McKenna's house! They got along great with Jaxx, and I could tell how happy they were from McKenna’s daily updates. Both of my dogs are seniors who need extra care and medication, and McKenna took good care of them. She was easy to communicate with and always attentive to their needs. Highly recommend!”

“James and Jackie watched our dog for two weeks, and they were amazing! Our dog came home happy, healthy, and very well taken care of. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was in such good hands while we were away. Thank you both for taking such great care of our fur baby. We highly recommend James and Jackie to anyone looking for caring and reliable dog sitters. We’ll definitely use them again!”

“My first time using rover and such a great experience. I received photo updates of the adventures which was greatly appreciated. Will definetely book again!”

“Our pup had the best time with Vivian! He came back exhausted, happy and healthy! Making plans and coordinating with Vivian was exceptionally easy, and Vivian sent me pics and videos of our pup during his stay. So nice to have someone we trust completely with our pup, and he clearly loves being with her!”

“It’s so nice to know that Egor will always take such good care of our reactive dog. It makes life feel way less isolating and is such great socialization for Tigger!”

“Randsell watched Milo while we were on a 7 day cruise. She sent lots of photos and videos, and took him on lots of walks and gave him a lot of attention. We would definitely rebook her when we're in the area again!”

“Luna had a great time with Erica and her dogs for a 1 week+ boarding stay! We haven’t left Luna with anyone new in years but with some last minute changes, we’re glad to have met Erica. Luna was aptly spoiled and loved the whole household. We got lots of updates throughout our trip. Would highly recommend and will book with Erica again!”

“Stephanie did an amazing job with our dogs. They can be anxious when they are away from us, but she was so good with them and made them feel so comfortable. She also responds quickly and provided us with pictures and updates throughout our trip. She is also flexible and was understanding of our possible changes in our trip plans and the delay we had in getting back to pick them up. We would definitely have our dogs stay with her again in the future!”
“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!”

“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.”


“This is the second time our 1 year old lab stayed with Kandice and family and he stayed for longer; 10 days. He seemed so happy and pooped when he came home. Kandice and family take the time to get to know him, work with him on things like leash walking and appreciate his foibles like chasing squirrels and playing tug-of-war with their dogs.”

“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”


“Isabella was so so great with our dog, Benji! She kept us updated on how he was each day and really went the extra mile with making sure Benji was comfortable. Really appreciate the great care and I wouldn’t think twice about leaving my dog with her again ! ❤️”


“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!”

“Rigby stayed with Angela for 10 days while we traveled internationally, and it was such a blessing. This was our second time having Angela watch our dog, and while we were dropping him off, he ran so excitedly up to her house. He clearly remembered her and the great time they had together a few months ago. Angela provided daily photos and videos that really assured us as we were halfway across the world. She clearly knows how to love on pets because I received pictures of Rigby snuggling up to her at night. I also want to mention that I feel some Rovers may not disclose everything that happens during the stay, to maintain a positive image - however, this may cause delayed emergency vet care, etc. Rigby is a counter surfer and he got to a fried donut and some snacks during his stay with Angela, and she let us know right away, and made sure not to leave anything out on the counters. I really appreciated her letting us know as soon as possible so that would could make a plan of action (watch and wait since what he had eaten wasn't terribly toxic to dogs). She gave me updates on how he was doing much more frequently over the next few days. Her responsiveness, attention, and care are unmatched. I truly feel like I can trust her to watch my dog.”

“Laila took wonderful care of Coco. She sent lots of cute photos and videos, and I did not have a single concern. I'd be thrilled to have Coco stay with Laila again in the future.”
“What a great sitter! Ruby had a fun time with Hing's two beautiful pups. Communication and flexibility were great and super helpful. The neighborhood is beautiful and great for dogs. Would definitely use again.”

“Barbra was great! She was accessible and communicative. Otis got the outside time he needs, with lots of time strolling in the park which he loves. I highly recommend Barbra!”

“Elizabeth did a great job watching our two cats while we were away! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of them. We’d definitely recommend her and would book her again!”


“Thank you so much for the excellent care of my two cats! I can tell they both have really warmed up to you. It is such a relief to have a trust person to check in on them!”


“Abigail was absolutely amazing with my baby! She brought along toys to play with him and kept great communication while I was out of town for 2 weeks. I'm very picky and a bit of a helicopter parent when it comes to my cat, and after meeting her and seeing Chance Clayton interact with her- I knew she was the perfect match! I'll definitely be rebooking with her for my next time away!”


“Aubrey is wonderful! Our cats were well taken care of! She went out of her way to make sure our cats got the attention they needed while we were away. I can’t select more than 5 stars—I will say she is a gem and your pets would be in great hands!”


“Shelby was a great sitter for my 3 cats. Very communicative and flexible with her schedule and helping administer oral meds for one of my cats. Would definitely consider booking her again!”


“Gina again went above and beyond for us, helping to resolve a logistical challenge that we weren't expecting (but was ultimately my fault). She did it because, above all else, she cares sooooo much about our kitties and will do anything for them when we leave them in her care! I cannot recommend her enough -- simply a reliable, thoughtful, *kind* sitter.”

“I truly appreciate Michelle! She is fantastic, and her willingness to take care of my cat makes me feel grateful for her support. I highly recommend working with her as a long-term caretaker. She is reliable and trustworthy. Thank you, Michelle!”


“Ruth and Rachid were amazing cat sitters for our trip!!! Our cat Ryuji absolutely loved them and we will not hesitate to have them take care of her again in the future.”


“Made sure the kitties were well taken care of and had a good time while I was gone. Made sure she knew where everything was during the meeting and greet.”

“Brenda always does a great job watching our kitties! I love all the cute photos and detailed updates she sends. I can always relax on my vacation knowing she's taking great care of them :)”


“Emily provided detailed updates and lots of photos for each visit. She was able to administer my cat’s inhaler. I had no worries about my pets while I was gone - they were in good hands and were very comfortable with Emily.”

“Olivia is great with my kitties. I recently got two 3-month old kittens so the instructions for how to care for them or more tedious than usual. Olivia took great care of the kitties and I came home to very happy pets!”

“Sarah was wonderful caring for my cat at my apartment. She was very patient with a young cat who takes some time to warm up to strangers. I hope she's available whenever I need cat sitting—I'll definitely book her again because she was excellent.”


“Natalia is a fantastic cat sitter. We were away for a week and never once felt a moment of worry while she house sat for us. She was kind, punctual, provided daily updates, and it was clear she truly cared about our senior cat’s well-being. We returned to a very happy cat and a perfectly clean and tidy home. We highly recommend her and would be very happy to have her sit for our cat again. Thank you, Natalia!”


“Glad to find someone close by able to give Kitty some affection and took care to follow instructions, left my place secure. Was my 1st time using Rover! would use again”


“Allie is without a doubt one of the best sitters we have had. She cared for our boy Hugo perfectly, sent photo updates. What’s unique about Allie is she knows part of caring for pets well is making their people feel comfortable and rest assured. You can tell pets just relax and enjoy her presence and she brings the utmost peace of mind when you are away from your pack. Thank you Allie will definitely be booking again!”


About: I adopted and cared for my own cat for over 10 years, managing his complex health needs and ensuring he remained safe, happy, and well cared for. I currently have an ~20 year old foster cat named Leo. I'm so happy to have him around and to be able to help his family while they go through a period of transition. In addition, I have over a decade of volunteer experience working with a wide range of cats, giving me exposure to different temperaments, needs, and personalities. I have had cat clients, including diabetic cats, for over 5 years.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 20! I really enjoy spending time with them, that’s why my friends and family have rely on me to help them with their dogs! I’ve taken care from small dogs to large dogs in a safe and good environment. I’m currently full time at home, for that reason your best friend will be loved and cared all the time under total supervision at a nice home. I live in a spacious apartment with a court yard with pet relief area as an amenity. My area is very walkable and we have different green zones where your dog will enjoy the nature.

“Shu was super responsive and available before booking to coordinate to meet. Her dog, Lady, is also so sweet and well trained. I really appreciated the number of pictures/updates I received throughout the day too! Seems like my dog had a blast - we’ll be back!”
“Shaneik did great with both my pups. One of my dogs has anxiety, and I was worried I wouldn’t be able to leave him with anyone. Shaneik was super understanding, and both my dogs were really comfortable and calm with her. I’d recommend Shaneik!”

“From the first meet & greet to the last scheduled walk, Faeden went above and beyond to ensure my dog’s comfort 🥰🥹🙌 They were endlessly patient and detail-oriented with the routine. I received updates with every visit, and questions as they popped up (ie. minor abrasions, neighbor visits). It’s not easy leaving a pet behind for an extended period, but Faeden made it so painless. Nooby absolutely loved their time together and we’ll definitely book again!”


“Ozzy and I really like Zhongni! She is very thoughtful, caring and really paid a lot of attention to his needs. I know she took excellent care of Ozzy while I was at work and felt very comfortable dropping him off with her. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. I highly recommend her as a sitter and will use her again for boarding!”

“Emily was great. Upon meeting her we felt really good about leaving our fur baby with her while we visited Seattle. Emily left us a great overview of Yuki’s day and we couldn’t be more thankful for the feedback. We will definitely reach back out to Emily when we need pet sitting in Seattle again :)”

“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!”

About: Hello! I'm Shelby. I live with my dog, Maggie, and my cat, Neko (both senior gals), but I still gasp audibly every time I see an animal in the street. I know how scary it can be to be away from your pets, especially if you have to leave them with someone you don't know. I also know how important it can be to leave them with someone you really trust. I promise I'll take care of your babies like they are my own - and I'd love to send you a bajillion pictures of their adorable little faces, too. I work part-time on the UW campus. I am available for bookings after 2:30pm Monday through Thursday, and I have more availability on Fridays and weekends. I live in an apartment in an older home in the Central District with a fenced yard. Please note I have an elderly cat and dog who are both friendly with other animals but fairly low-energy. My animals have mostly free reign of the apartment - they're allowed on the couches, beds, etc, but I try to keep my dog from going into the bathroom so she doesn't get into my cat's litter or food. As a house- and pet-sitter, I aim to treat your space and your animals the way you would - with respect, love, and care.
“Senel and Engin are so great with Thor! I was so lucky to find them so close to my house. Thor already loves Engin and he’s only stayed 2x so far. I will be booking them for the foreseeable future. Ps. The best part is the photos and videos. That’s above and beyond for me! 🙌🏽”

“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.”

“Amazing rover! Communication, flexibility, and punctual. My dog is usually shy and warmed up immediately. I felt my dog was safe and in good hands. I recommend and will use again thank you!”


“Dongni was amazing! She is friendly and has a big yard for dogs. I felt my dog was safe and well taken care of. Her neighborhood is nice and she sent a lot of photos. I will definitely use her again!”

“Madelaine is so attentive to my pup Leo. She provides me with feedback on his behavior after each time she watches him, and has adjusted walk frequency and what he needs to be happiest and well exercised. I appreciate her prompt responses and advance notice when she’ll be away when I set up time with her. Leo comes home calm and is at ease when I pick him up. Highly recommend - she knows what she’s doing and I enjoy working with her!”

“Lily did an amazing job walking Maverick. He was very energetic when he left and came back calm and happy after his walk. So glad that she will continue walking Maverick!”

“Justin does a great job walking our two Labrador Retrievers. He is responsive, on time, and flexible - everything I was looking for in someone to walk them consistently! We will continue to use him !”

“Gabriel has been amazing with Murphy this week! He’s communicative and reliable. Murphy can sometimes be reactive or a little stubborn about walking, but Gabriel handled him so well and was very patient with him. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and extra care during the walks. As I’ve been working long days, I had a last-minute care request and really appreciated that he was able to accommodate it. It gave me peace of mind knowing Murphy was in good hands.”

“Lyn has walked my senior large breed dog, Olive, several times. Lyn is reliable, communicates well, and most importantly, always takes great care of Olive! I would love for her to continue walking Olive.”
“I went out of town for 6 days and Craig was able to walk, feed, and provide companionship for my dog. He was well liked by Obi and when I arrived back he was happy to show me Craig with his tail wagging. Craig provided exactly what Obi needed.”

“Ryan’s awesome and got Lu out of the house asap for us! Luna loves her daily walks and I’ve been out of commission for a bit so it was so nice to trust Ryan to deliver on giving her the best time!! Thanks Ryan it means a lot to us.”

“Noah is lovely. I have an anxious/reactive puppers and Noah took the time to get to know us and learn about our training and management strategies. He is very responsive and let me know that he was arriving a couple minutes early. Gus came back from his walk happy and relaxed.”

About: Plenty of love, snuggles, walks, and fun for your pup! I know how important it is to have trusting care while you are away - I do my best to provide a fun and caring attention for every pup in my care! For boarding in my home - Pups must get along with my Corgi (he loves to play and make friends!). Our house does not have a fenced yard, so dogs are always on-leash when leaving for walks around the neighborhood. We do have a cat, however the cat lives completely separate in the basement level of our house, and is not able to access the main floor where Rover pups (and our pup) will be. We regularly take Rover pups that do not get along with cats - there is no issue with this, with our setup for the cat being completely separated. My pup typically has 2-3 long walks throughout the day and then one last short walk before bed, and typically this aligns with most pups schedules but I can accommodate for additional potty breaks if needed. I do go in to the office Monday - Wednesday, and am gone for about 6-7 hours those days. I make safety a top priority! Pets are kept separated if I have to leave the house and there's plenty of walking before and after! I don't take pups to dog parks, instead I focus more on fun walks throughout the neighborhood/nearby parks and playtime in the house!

“Logan is a wonderful pet lover! He takes really sweet care of my pup with special needs and communicates frequently and well! So glad we found him and my dog adores having a visit from Logan!”

“Caitlin exceeded my expectations from the start! Great communicator, patient with me while figuring out “Rover” works, and understanding when provided the wrong door entrance code. She provided thorough information and pictures of daily walks. Took great care of our two pups. I would highly recommend her! We will definitely use her services again.”


About: I have had dogs since I was a kid, I can navigate puppy-hood to senior care. I have experience with big and small, separation anxiety, on and off leash behavior issues. As for cats, I didn't find my feline affinity until a bit later in life. I had my own cat (miss him so!) and I have volunteered at PAWS Cat City for more than a decade where I assist with adoptions, cleaning, cat socialization and care. I currently have an ~20 year old foster cat named Leo. I'm so happy to have him around and to be able to help his family while they go through a period of transition. I even volunteer and help out with the care of local mini horses. Can you believe there are mini horses in the city?!? I have finite bandwidth but I will communicate clearly to be sure that I am a right fit for your pet. I am eager to help pet parents and provide quality care to their furkids. I live in Madison Valley and have a single family home with a completely fenced in back yard with lots of terrain and territory to explore.

“Lyric was available on very short notice, and was so helpful and thoughtful with our pups. She offered to fill water when she wasn’t asked, and complimented how cute our dogs are! Highly recommend her :)”
About: Thank you so much for thinking of me for hosting your pet's stay! My name is Summer, I'm a huuuuge fan of sci-fi books, plants of all sorts, and spending time with dogs! I've been offering pet care in Seattle since 2016, and before that have done pet care professionally several years. I'd love to meet with you and your beloved pet to help with Walking, Daily Visits, Potty Breaks, Park Adventures, or trips to the Vet! As someone who has cared for my own pets well into their senior years, I have a lot of patience and am skilled to support animals with extra needs including medications, pain management, incontinence, or patience with aggression. Your friend is important to me, please reach out and let me know how to best care for, respect, and love them!
About: I’ve helped lots of family and friends care for their dogs. Currently i have one dog and 3 cats that my roommates and I all care for. I have a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) which helped me gain a lot of understanding for how modeling positive behaviors can pay off in all parts of life. I’m currently working part time until 2pm. On weekdays anytime after 2:15pm will be available as well as the majority of weekends. I’m very flexible and willing to help however I can. I have 4 pets at home and adding someone new into the mix can be stressful so I cannot host. However, I can pick up and play or take for walks.

“To say we lucked out with Emily is an understatement! Not only was this our first time using Rover, but my partner and I were going to be in a completely different time zone for nearly a week, so the anxiety about leaving our dog, Dotty was high. However, from day 1, Emily completely eased all our worries. She sent us daily updates and lots of pictures which allowed us to really enjoy our vacation. She was attentive to the little details of how to best care for Dotty and asked questions which made us feel like she really cared. Everything from the meet & greet to pickup after our vacation was seamless. We would recommend Emily to other fur parents in a heartbeat.”

“James and Jackie watched our dog for two weeks, and they were amazing! Our dog came home happy, healthy, and very well taken care of.
