I hope to book with Randsell again soon :-)”
“Devan was excellent with Pepper, and was extremely meticulous in his communication. We received constant text and photo updates during his stay and that’s one of the most important qualities when caring for a pet.”
“Debra is SUCH a sweetheart, Poppy loves her, her husband and all her toys/treats! She is a wonderful person to be around, and yes I would love to board with her 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.”
“This was my first time boarding Nico with Ana. Our meet and greet went very well. Ana is kind, friendly, and asked plenty of questions about Nico’s needs and preferences. I left feeling very comfortable moving forward with the booking. Nico was so well cared for while staying with Ana. Not only does she care deeply for animals, she understands how it must feel to leave your pet with someone else. She was very quick to reply to any messages and sent lots of updates and photos while we were away. Great communication and I would 100% recommend Ana as a fantastic pet sitter! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We’ll definitely have Nico stay with Ana again in the future.”
“Our girl Rebel was so happy to and well taken care of. We got lots of photos and updates daily, it gave it peace of mind trust our baby was well taken care of and being loved.”

“We are so thankful to Egor for taking such good care of our dogs! He kept us updated with messages and photos, so we didn’t have to worry about how the dogs were doing while we were gone. The dogs came back happy, healthy, and clearly well looked after. Egor made sure their stay at his home was as comfortable and stress free as possible. We truly appreciate his thoughtful approach and care.”
“I scheduled a trial run for my dog before we take a long international trip and feel at ease with Danielle and Joy. My senior dog can be a handful but they seem to have a lot of experience with various ages and temperaments.”
“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 :)”
“My dogs were cared for in a very professional manager. Sena and her son take care of the dogs together. I left my two pit bulls with them and they had the comfort of their own room for the duration of the booking. I received frequent updates on the status of my dogs and pics and videos. I was glad to get back to them but had no problem leaving them in her care! Highly recommend.”
“Jessica was the perfect pup sitter for our little Carl! We received frequent updates and beautiful photos each day. Communication was quick, clear and timely, and pickup and drop off was super easy. We were so happy knowing Carl was having such a relaxing and enjoyable time with Jessica and we would highly recommend!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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! :)”

She is detail oriented, making sure to ask specific questions about logistics, pet care/cleaning, and how to make your pet the happiest they can be. I received many amazing videos and photos of Dot, which showed her playing, getting treats, and overall attention. Marie-Rose even left Dot a new wand toy and left a hand-written note with a drawing of Dot, which really warmed my heart. Highly recommend you book Marie-Rose in the future!!”

“Cassandra took amazing care of my two cats while I was away for three weeks. They gave lots of updates on how my cats were doing and send lots of pictures! I would definitely recommend for all pet owners!”

With a high sense of ownership and initiative, Carter proactively moved the air purifier for the cats' well-being, washed the kitties' water fountain and food bowl, and replaced the litter robot's waste bag - all without me asking! The cats loved Carter and I loved knowing they were in capable hands. Would definitely book again for a worry-free experience!”
“Akiko gave us such peace of mind leaving our cats in her care for a weekend trip. She was awesome with communicating about when she was going to visit them and how they were doing.

She also was great about cleaning up a couple of messes and making sure the litter boxes were cleaned. We highly recommend Akiko!”
“Valeriya has been wonderful with my 3 kitties! She is reliable, efficient and incredibly caring. I feel completely at ease when I’m away knowing she’s keeping an eye on them.

“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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: 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 work from home, so I can provide attention to your dog all day! We are very active, with multiple walks a day around the city, off leash dog parks (if you are ok with it), and weekend visits to bigger parks! 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!
“I've recently relocated to Seattle for work, and while waiting for my residence to become available, I needed assistance with watching my dog, Fat Boi, during business hours. I connected with Keith, and he's been such a great help! Fat Boi is shy and very attached to me, he's prone to getting a little depressed when we aren't together, but Keith helps to enrich his days and gives him some extra socialization. Fat Boi gets to people watch out from the balcony, and go on walks to see the water, and enjoys some great snacks while hanging out with Keith! I'm grateful that he's been there to look after Fat Boi and give him attention while I'm at work. I'm a long way from home, and so is Fat Boi, and it's one less source of stress in this huge transition to have the peace of mind that my little fuzzy guy is being thoughtfully taken care of until we are reunited at the end of the day.”
About: I got my first pup when I turned 11 and have cared for them ever since, going on 14 years of owning a pet. Both dogs and cats! I enjoy interacting with pets and making them feel special on walkies or just hanging out with them. I currently run a small business so I am able to set my own hours and attend to other things such as walking or caring for your pet. I have a fenced in yard and three fur children in my household. Two dogs and a cat. I can also crate if needed for your pet.
“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!”
“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.”
“Mariia was exactly what Cortez needed! You could tell from the start that she cares for other people animals and she’s is truly so kind and patient with them! Cortez definitely has a new friend he’ll love getting to spend time with 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.”
About: I have over 5 years of experience dog sitting for a variety of families, providing comprehensive care tailored to each pet’s needs. Whether it's managing overnight stays, conducting regular drop-in visits, taking energetic walks, or keeping up with routine potty breaks, I prioritize safety, clear communication, and keeping your dog’s routine consistent while you’re away. In addition to sitting for clients, I’ve grown up with a family dog and frequently care for them during extended stays. Having a dog in my own home has given me a deep, personal understanding of dog behavior, health needs, and how important it is to treat every pet like family. What You Can Expect: Attentive Routine Care: Timely feeding, fresh water, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of play. Active Engagement: Tailored walks, outdoor exercise, and engaging activities to keep your dog happy and stimulated. Frequent Updates: Daily photos and status updates so you always have peace of mind. Respectful House Sitting: Keeping your home clean, secure, and well-cared for during overnight stays. Working part-time from home gives me a flexible, consistent schedule that allows me to prioritize quality time and structured care for every dog I look after. Daily Availability & Supervision: Because I spend most of my work hours at home, pets in my care receive continuous companionship, regular attention, and frequent breaks throughout the day rather than being left alone for long stretches. Structured Daily Routine: My schedule makes it easy to maintain your dog’s exact feeding times, medication schedules, potty breaks, and energy outlets. I build my work tasks around their daily rhythm so their home routine stays seamless and stress-free. Mid-Day Exercise & Play: Flexible working hours allow me to block out time for mid-day walks, backyard play, and mental stimulation games when dogs are typically most active. Overnight & Weekend Care: With a home-based work setup, overnight stays and weekend bookings blend naturally into my regular flow, ensuring your pet always has a present, reliable anchor while you are away. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, my priority is keeping their daily routine consistent, safe, and stress-free. Caring for Pets in Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins) Maintaining Familiar Routines: I follow your exact instructions for feeding, potty schedules, and sleep arrangements so your pet feels secure in their own environment. Attentive Care & Company: I provide plenty of one-on-one attention, play, and quiet companionship while respecting your home and keeping everything clean and secure. Frequent Updates: You’ll receive regular photos and daily status updates so you know your pet and home are in great hands. Caring for Pets in My Home (Apartment Living) Frequent Outdoor Excursions: Since I live in an apartment, I schedule regular, structured outdoor breaks for potty times and fresh air throughout the day. Park Walks & Exercise: We take full advantage of nearby parks for long, peaceful walks, sniffing sessions, and controlled exercise to burn off energy safely. A Cozy, Supervised Environment: My apartment offers a calm, cozy atmosphere where your dog can relax nearby while I work. They receive constant supervision and never have to navigate a chaotic or noisy environment. Safety & Park Guidelines Living in an apartment with nearby parks means safety and attentive handling are my top priorities on every outing. Here is how I ensure your dog stays secure, comfortable, and happy: Strict On-Leash Policy: Your dog will remain securely leashed at all times during outdoor walks, park visits, and potty breaks. I do not take client dogs off-leash in un-fenced public areas under any circumstances. Controlled Park Interactions: Nearby parks are fantastic for sniffing and exercise, but I maintain a respectful distance from unfamiliar dogs and high-traffic areas. I always check with you beforehand regarding your dog’s comfort level around other pets or crowded spaces. Double-Check Gear Security: Before leaving the apartment, I double-check that collars, harnesses, and leashes are fitted securely to prevent any risk of slipping out. Weather & Pavement Checks: Before setting out, I check ground temperatures to protect paw pads during hot weather and keep walks shorter on severe weather days. Fresh water and quick paw wipes are always part of our post-walk routine. Attentive Environment Awareness: Apartment living requires constant vigilance—I stay fully off my phone during walks to focus 100% on scan-ahead awareness, watching for bicycle traffic, wildlife, or stray items on the path.
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.
“Jade was great with my pup! She sent pictures and updates throughout the day.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, from energetic, high-maintenance breeds like huskies to senior cats who need a gentler, more attentive approach. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I adapt my care to meet those individual needs. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy dog’s exercise needs or providing calm, patient companionship to older pets, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free, and loving environment while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide attentive, loving care for pets throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or sticking to your pet’s routine, I’m able to give them lots of attention and companionship. I also offer boarding, so your pet can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a home environment while you’re away! Creating a safe, trusting, and comfortable environment for pets is very important to me. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always prioritize supervision, patience, and positive interactions. I also provide regular updates and communication so pet parents can feel confident knowing their furry family member is in good hands.

About: We currently have a 9 year old GSP and 16 year old cat (who's the boss of the house), and we often take care of friends pets while they're away. Pretty much anytime we can get pet snuggles, we're in :) Please note that for new clients we require a meet & greet prior to boarding and doggie daycare. We also only take one boarding/daycare request at a time to provide the best possible service for our furry guests.

Our apartment building has 24/7 concierge and security, making it very secure. We have access to a private dog run for potty breaks and off-leash play, plus we're close to our neighborhood dog park that has lots of space to run. If we need to leave the pups home, they are given free roam of the bedroom and we're able to check in on the pups with a Doggie Cam. If requested, have multiple bedrooms where pups can get solo time or be crated by themselves.

“Eva is such a gem! She patiently figured out a key issue with my leasing office on the first day. My dog can be a little shy, but he seemed to have a great time with Eva. She was very responsive and took great pictures! She goes above and beyond and I’ll definitely be reaching out to her in the future 🐾”
“Cannot say enough positive things about these two! I booked with them after a sudden work shift change, and they were able to accommodate my short notice and help care for my pittie Kimmy. I was originally so nervous about leaving my older, arthritic dog under someone else’s care, but immediately knew my dog was in good hands. They were attentive to her needs, prioritizing her safety and well being. They are truly passionate about animal care and really seem to love my dog as if she was their own. They are Reliable, flexible, playful with my dog, kind, and trustworthy. So grateful to have found them!!”

“Hyeonyoung has been our dog walker for a few weeks now and we will continue to hire her to walk our dog! We can trust her and depend on her to walk the dog when we are at work.

“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: 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.
About: Hi! I’m Dawn. I’ve spent over 10 years professionally working with dogs in training, veterinary care, grooming, and enrichment-based pet care. More importantly, I genuinely love getting to know dogs as individuals. My approach is patient, science-based, and centered around what your dog actually needs. I believe walks should be more than just getting from point A to point B. I give dogs opportunities to sniff, explore, decompress, investigate their environment, and move at a pace that makes sense for them. Sometimes that means covering a lot of ground, and sometimes it means spending five minutes investigating one really interesting patch of grass. Both can be a successful walk! My training background is rooted in positive reinforcement and understanding canine body language. I’m comfortable working with shy, sensitive, excitable, strong, reactive, adolescent, and senior dogs, and I’m especially attentive to the little signals dogs give us before they become overwhelmed. I also have experience in veterinary settings, so I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs and dogs who may need a little extra patience or attention. Safety is extremely important to me, and I take handling, equipment, environmental awareness, and each dog’s individual limitations seriously. When your dog is with me, I want them to feel like they’re going on an adventure with someone they know and trust—not just being checked off a schedule. I love building relationships with the dogs I care for and figuring out what makes their tail wag, whether that's a woodland sniffari, practicing some fun skills, exploring a new trail, or simply taking a slow neighborhood wander. And yes—I will absolutely take too many pictures of your dog and tell you all about what they got up to. 🐾🌲 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to the animals in my care. Pet care is a major part of my day-to-day life, and I intentionally leave enough time between clients so visits and walks don't feel rushed. I'm available for regular weekly care as well as occasional visits, and I love building consistent relationships with both pets and their people. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I have professional experience in dog training, veterinary care, grooming, and pet sitting, and I'm comfortable reading body language and adjusting my handling to the individual animal. I use positive reinforcement and science-based handling methods, and I take introductions slowly when a pet needs extra time. I carefully follow your instructions regarding leashes, harnesses, doors, feeding, medications, reactivity, and household routines.

M - F: 6AM - 7PM S - S: 8AM - 4PM I work from home, allowing me to provide on-site service for your animal. Although I do not have a fenced in yard, I am an easy walk about from several parks.
About: I am a lover of animals, and currently have a 9-year old French Bulldog named Rocco. I enjoy spending time with dogs and cats, and look forward to meeting many more through the Rover app. I work in banking remotely from home, and I have a rather flexible schedule on both weekdays and on weekends, so I can accommodate most days/times. There is a dog run in my building and a dog park a few blocks away for ease of exercise. I enjoy taking dogs for walks as well.

“Audra, Andrew, and Cooper always give Bongo so much love and affection! They are wonderful sitters that treat him like their own. Their love for Bongo really shows!”
“Randsell was an amazing sitter. My dog was so well taken care of, monitored, and loved. I would absolutely recommend her to watch your dog. She clearly has a passion for dogs, and she is always keeping them entertained and sending photos and videos along the way. Thank you for taking such good care of her! I hope to book with Randsell again soon :-)”
“Pixel absolutely loves his time with Catherine. She is a great communicator, pays close attention to Pixel's instructions sheet, and he is always in great spirits when we get him back. Thank you!”
“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.”
“This was my first time boarding Nico with Ana. Our meet and greet went very well. Ana is kind, friendly, and asked plenty of questions about Nico’s needs and preferences. I left feeling very comfortable moving forward with the booking. Nico was so well cared for while staying with Ana. Not only does she care deeply for animals, she understands how it must feel to leave your pet with someone else. She was very quick to reply to any messages and sent lots of updates and photos while we were away. Great communication and I would 100% recommend Ana as a fantastic pet sitter! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We’ll definitely have Nico stay with Ana again in the future.”

“My dogs were cared for in a very professional manager. Sena and her son take care of the dogs together. I left my two pit bulls with them and they had the comfort of their own room for the duration of the booking. I received frequent updates on the status of my dogs and pics and videos. I was glad to get back to them but had no problem leaving them in her care! Highly recommend.”

His dog Ellie was very chill and seemed to get along with Sox great. I definitely would (and will!) work with Michael again!”
