“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.”
“Jerica is great! We found her on Rover 3 weeks before our 8-day trip when our regular dog sitter would not be available. I was nervous leaving Archie with a new sitter at first, but she took great care of Archie. Jerica works from home. She has a yard and an adorable corgi so our beagle had someone to play with. Jerica took Archie on walks with her corgi and let Archie snuggle with her at night. It worked out great. She kept us updated every day and sent us lots of photos. We would definitely book with her again in the future.”
“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!!!”
“I don’t think they left anything out! To sum it up: Great care Plenty of cuddles Lots of photo updates Good communication City adventures every day All with enthusiasm and love, so we returned to happy healthy pups.”
“Sufi loves staying at Ramon. I appreciate his transparency and he loves having Sufi over. He is regular at updates, something which calms our anxiety leaving our kiddo.”
“Ana took such good care of Coco! Ana sent me many pictures and updates. I knew Coco was taken care of and loved by Ana and her family. I will definitely reach out again to have Coco stay with Ana.”
“Jana and her family have been an absolute gift. Summer is a very reserved, apprehensive little dog who has never stayed in someone else's home before, so I was understandably nervous. From the moment we met, Jana and her family were patient, gentle, and took the time to earn Summer's trust rather than expecting it. They cared for her as if she were their own, and I had complete peace of mind knowing she was safe, comfortable, and in such a calm, loving home while our house was filled with the chaos of repairs, packing, and moving. Summer came home happy and relaxed, and I've already booked Jana again for several more stays. I couldn't recommend her more highly.”
“Such kindness and communication while taking care of our two strange dogs, so much appreciated. I was nervous to leave town but from the first hour of departure we knew they both were in good care. Ponyo sent pictures many times daily, told us of the fun (and sometimes naughty) behaviors and took the time to ask questions to ensure they were sufficiently exercised and entertained. Thank you!”
“Randsell was super communicative and was very caring! I could tell our cat was very reluctant in parting ways with her when I went to pick him up. I'm very grateful she was available last minute for our trip to cat sit.”
“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.”
“Jessica was great! She was communicative throughout, and I felt really comfortable leaving Dakota with her. Her dog, Ollie, is super sweet, and he and Dakota got along really well. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Brenda is awesome. She gave our two pups the BEST weekend while we were gone. Brenda goes above and beyond, and we will 1,000% be calling her again. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Brenda!!”
“Catherine was such a great sitter for our German Shepherd pup. She took her on multiple walks a day and kept us so well informed with updates and pictures while we were out. We felt so much more comfortable knowing our girl was well cared for while we were gone. We picked up a happy, tired pup. We’d love to have Catherine watch her again in the future.”
“Kevin and Kandice were great. Our dog unexpectedly ended up in a cone with some additional medications and a toy ban the week before his stay and they took it in stride! Skippy had a great time with lots of walks, cuddles, and sniffing adventures despite his new limitations. They were flexible and communicated well with lots of pictures. Will book again!”
“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!”
“Laila took excellent care of my dog for 9 days. She sent me plenty of updates everyday and was always quick to respond. My dog is typically very shy and anxious around new people and dogs, but she became very happy and comfortable around Laila and the other dogs quite quickly. It’s clear that Laila has plenty of experience, love, and attention when taking care of dogs. I would definitely trust Laila to care for my dog again in the future!”
“Jennifer took great care of my dog. She responded to messages in a timely manner and it was easy to communicate with her. My dog came home happy. I highly recommend her.”
“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!”
“Remus had a great time staying at Thư’s apartment! He got to explore and go on many adventures. He even got a bath and brushing :) we received daily photos and videos of their adventures. Thanks Thư!”
“Our dog Poppy had a great time staying with Maureen! Maureen took wonderful care of her and kept us updated during our trip. When we picked Poppy up, she was busy playing with Maureen's dog, Lucy. We will definitely bring her back.”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care our cat received. Mariia is reliable, communicative, and clearly has a special way with animals. From the daily updates and photos to the thoughtful attention to our cat’s needs and quirks, everything was handled with love and professionalism. I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty - and a clean space, too! I recommend Mariia to anyone who is looking for someone they an truly trust with their furry family member.”

“Manna is amazing and I will continue to book her for every visit!!!! She treated my shy often difficult cat with respect and was able to gain his trust!:) i’m truly grateful for her service !”
“This was our second time booking Anna for drop in visits with our cat. She was great at communicating and spent lots of time playing with and taking care of our boy! We really appreciated all the pictures and notes she left about him while we were gone.”
“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.”
“It’s such a relief to have a trustworthy and responsible pet sitter taking care of our fur babies when we’re away. During our Christmas vacation, the fire alarm ran out of power and started beeping nonstop, which really scared our cats and kept them from eating and using the litter box. We reached out to Kevin, and he was incredibly responsive and quickly came by to fix the issue. We’re so grateful for his reliability and care. Highly recommend and will definitely book him again!”
“Laurie took wonderful care of my cat, George, while I was away. She followed all of my care instructions carefully, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about making sure George was comfortable and well looked after. I really appreciated her reliability, attention to detail, and the care she showed George throughout her visits. I would absolutely book with Laurie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring pet sitter!”

About: I grew up with pets, from large to small. My sibling and friends always rely on me fostering their dogs and cats. I work from home and won’t leave your pets alone. My husband and I work full time from home, so your pets will always be attended to. They will pretty much hang out with us while we go about our day. My husband starts walking all of the dogs at around 8am. I will open my fenced yard at midday for a midday pee break. My husband will come back at around 6:30pm to give all of the dogs another walk. We usually feed the dogs their morning and evening meals after they come back from their walks. We will open the yard again before bed for a late night pee break.
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.
“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: 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.

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!

“Mandy did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Arlo. She was communicative and kind, and it was clear that he was very comfortable with her. She gave him ample exercise and was attentive to his dietary and behavior quirks. Highly recommend!”
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.

“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 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. All my visits take place in your home, where your pet feels safest. I follow your care instructions exactly feeding amounts, medications, house rules and I never let a dog off leash outdoors. I always make sure doors and gates are securely closed, keep your home clean and tidy, and treat it with full respect. After every visit I send you photos and a short update, so you always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Rachael was able to take my pup last minute after another sitter cancelled on us. She was so great with our very energetic pup. Thank you so much for the time, care, and attention you provided to Harlan! Would definitely book again!”
“Devan was awesome! Great communication and a natural at connecting with dogs and keeping them engaged. Benji did not want to leave! We hope to see Devan again!”
“Christina was wonderful with our new puppy! It was nerve wracking to leave her with a “stranger” for the first time, but Christina and her husband were so warm, welcoming, and attentive. Kit had a great time and we look forward to booking again!”
“Maria is fantastic - friendly, communicative, attentive and accommodating. Our little Frenchie can be a handful and Maria took such good care of her, making sure to keep us updated and reassuring us while we were away. She took extra efforts to insure her home was safe for our dog, which was so appreciated. Bebé had a great time…pretty sure she didn’t miss us at all. We hope to have Maria watch our pup again soon.”
“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.”
“Napoleon has stayed with Purbasha and her husband a few times, and I can't believe I haven't written them a review yet. They're great with him, always giving updates and sending photos. Napoleon gets along great with their dog, Ziggy. They're always very accommodating, and Napoleon always comes home tired and happy. They're our go-to in North Van, and can't recommend them enough!”

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.

About: I grew up with two Cavachons who I love dearly and have lived with an cared for cats and dogs of all kinds over the past six years. Love taking my time on walks, giving your little ones all the love and attention. I just moved to Seattle and will be beginning my masters in nutrition at UW in the fall. Looking for work and housing currently and have tons of free time at the moment! I’ve done many pet and house sitting arrangements over the years. I am very respectful of your space and try to leave it nicer than I found it!
“Hi I just wanted to a minute and talk about how amazing Heidi is! Heidi is so great with Bruno, I've seen such a change in him since she's been in his life. When I get home and take him out he's happier and more relaxed than before. With my partner's and my schedules being so different Heidi has helped us to not worry about Bruno being anxious waiting for us to go outside. His quality of life has gone up and it shows! We love having Heidi we're very grateful at how skilled she is with Bruno, she's so amazing😁❤️”
“Alijah is dependable, flexible and always gets the wiggles out of our energetic 8 mo old pup. He’s always so much more chill when we come home from a long day of work, when he gets a nice, long walk with Alijah. We appreciate her a lot!”
“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!”
“Alison is responsible, punctual, and very positive in her approach. She managed to take a nervous puppy who wouldn’t get out of her crate up to the level where she now has a new friend who wants to share her favorite blanket. I highly recommend her for your dog walking needs!”
About: I've been doing full time house/pet sitting now for over 4 years. I believe it's time to expand onto this website were I know my skills and experiences will provide a positive experience for those searching for someone with experience and whom is also reliable. Been doing this for over 4 years. It is my life and passion and thoroughly enjoy what I get to do everyday I wake up.

I provide daily updates with quick communication and ensure that your pets are happy and place is clean when you return.
About: Hi! I’ve been a huge animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up in Vietnam, my connection with dogs started when I was really young—I used to help my mom bathe and feed our family dogs, and I even helped hand-feed a litter of newborn puppies when their mom didn't have enough milk! That early, hands-on care gave me a deep, intuitive bond with animals, and my friends actually joke that I’m a bit of a "dog whisperer." Fast forward to today, I’m the go-to pet sitter for my cousins, and I've even helped train their dogs from the time they were little puppies. Whether I'm working on basic commands with a high-energy pup or just cuddling up with a big, beautiful fluffy white dog, spending time with animals is genuinely my favorite thing to do. I absolutely love being outdoors, and I'm totally used to getting my steps in around Seattle, rain or shine. Because of my hands-on puppy training experience, I’m super comfortable reinforcing good leash manners and handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I’ll make sure your dog gets a great, safe workout and comes home happy and tired out! I am currently looking for a full-time job and trying to make some extra cash to cover my living expenses. I am very flexible about time as long as you let me know ahead of time. I will definitely arrange my schedule and help provide your pets with a joyful walk or a lovely home visit! I provide home drop-in service, so whenever and wherever you need my care for your pets, please feel free to reach out to me. I will give your pets real companionship while you’re busy or out of town. It’s never just a quick potty break and a food bowl refill with me—we’ll actually play, cuddle, and hang out so they don’t feel lonely. And if you have kitties too, even better! I love cats just as much as dogs and would be thrilled to care for your whole furry crew. I can’t wait to meet your pets and treat them exactly like my own!
“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 :)”
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!
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!
“Laurie J is wonderful! She definitely has experience with reactive dogs and obedience training/corrections. She worked patiently with Walter to ensure they were both comfortable. I appreciate the extra care and consideration. Thank you for your time!”
“Bruce was excellent, communicated perfectly, and clearly loves dogs. He helped me out when I couldn't walk my sister's dog. My sister and I will definitely request his help in the future. Thank you Bruce!”
“Working with Leslie was a great experience! She was super easy to communicate with and great with my crazy Siberian Husky. It was easy to tell she had lots of experience with dogs of all types. I will be definitely be working with Leslie again 10/10 would recommend!”

“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.”
“Sufi loves staying at Ramon. I appreciate his transparency and he loves having Sufi over. He is regular at updates, something which calms our anxiety leaving our kiddo.”
“Jana and her family have been an absolute gift. Summer is a very reserved, apprehensive little dog who has never stayed in someone else's home before, so I was understandably nervous. From the moment we met, Jana and her family were patient, gentle, and took the time to earn Summer's trust rather than expecting it. They cared for her as if she were their own, and I had complete peace of mind knowing she was safe, comfortable, and in such a calm, loving home while our house was filled with the chaos of repairs, packing, and moving. Summer came home happy and relaxed, and I've already booked Jana again for several more stays. I couldn't recommend her more highly.”
“Such kindness and communication while taking care of our two strange dogs, so much appreciated. I was nervous to leave town but from the first hour of departure we knew they both were in good care. Ponyo sent pictures many times daily, told us of the fun (and sometimes naughty) behaviors and took the time to ask questions to ensure they were sufficiently exercised and entertained. Thank you!”
“Randsell was super communicative and was very caring! I could tell our cat was very reluctant in parting ways with her when I went to pick him up. I'm very grateful she was available last minute for our trip to cat sit.”
“Catherine was such a great sitter for our German Shepherd pup. She took her on multiple walks a day and kept us so well informed with updates and pictures while we were out. We felt so much more comfortable knowing our girl was well cared for while we were gone. We picked up a happy, tired pup. We’d love to have Catherine watch her again in the future.”
“Jennifer took great care of my dog. She responded to messages in a timely manner and it was easy to communicate with her. My dog came home happy. I highly recommend her.”
“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!”
“Remus had a great time staying at Thư’s apartment! He got to explore and go on many adventures. He even got a bath and brushing :) we received daily photos and videos of their adventures. Thanks Thư!”
“Joseph is the perfect dog sitter! Our Zebo came home happy and healthy. Joseph was responsive and sent us pictures of Zebo daily, was thoughtful about feeding and walking, and Joseph’s apartment was a beautiful space for our dog. Highly recommended and we’ll be certainly going back to Joseph again!”
“Kandice was the best rover we have EVER used. She sent multiple videos and pictures throughout the day and many updates on how our dog Rosie was doing! Her photography skills were awesome! I would recommend her to anyone and I felt great knowing Rosie was being well cared for and having a great time. Kandice also has a fenced backyard that she lets the dogs play in (when she is watching them) which was so fun for Rosie. She was extremely thorough in all her questions about how to care for Rosie and I will definitely use her again!”
“Yalined welcomed my dog Hank into their home, and he had a very nice stay. He was relaxed when I picked him up and I would use Yalined again when I go on a trip.”
“Second time booking with Jeffrey and I am more than happy with his care with Dobby. Jeffrey is extremely thoughtful and communicative, I would not hesitate to work with him again.”
“Another wonderful stay! It’s always a mini vacation for Zella when she stays with Janet. We’re so appreciative of the adorable daily updates of Zella’s adventures around Seattle! :)”
“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”
“Malvika and her family were absolutely amazing. This was without a doubt the best rover experience myself and my dog have had. She was very accommodating, responsive, and sent many pictures. My dog is very clearly missing her and her family. Could not recommend highly enough!!!”
“Erica and Sloane are real pros, they went out of their way to make Georgia part of their family and I can't express how much they went above and beyond our expectations!!”
“Regina went above and beyond to ensure my elderly dachshund received the best care and attention. Her regular photo updates allowed our family to relax while away, knowing our pet was in good hands. Regina was also easy to work with, flexible, and we look forward to having our dog stay with Regina again!”
“Pramukh is an excellent communicator and was flexible with drop-off / pick-up times. He sent daily status reports with multiple pictures; I felt assured my BFF was in good hands and cared for.”
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!
