“Maria was an awesome dog sitter for Luna! She sent lots of photos and updated every day. I could tell from the pictures that Luna was having a great time and was well taken care of. Maria followed all of our instructions and we felt really comfortable leaving Luna with her. We’ll definitely be using Maria again!”
“Sofia has been a perfect fit for us and our dog. She was easy to communicate with and flexible in scheduling. We really enjoyed working with her and was happy to see photo and video updates throughout her time caring for our dog. Looking forward to seeing her again soon and so is Winston!”
“Gabby was a great sitter for Birdie. She was very kind with regards to Birdie's puppy antics and made sure that Birdie was well exercised and loved. I would definitely book Gabby again in the future. Thank you!”
“Amazing! I booked a last minute stay over Fourth of July weekend and Mana was so accommodating. She squeezed in a pre stay introduction for the dogs, then took amazing care of Obi over the three days. I got so many photos (and a video) and she even refilled my poop bag dispenser from her own stash when ours ran out and sent obi home with a little extra treat. Outstanding sitter, would book again without hesitation.”
“We are so glad to have had Tiffany watch Poppy for a longer stay while we got married! We were updated with adorable photos, she even did a little photoshoot and sent us home with a very cute printed pic of Poppy. Communication was easy and Tiffany was flexible when we had a change in plans to pick Poppy up early. Thank you so much for keeping her in good care, we would definitely recommend Tiffany and would love to have Poppy stay with her again.”
“Vadzim was incredibly responsive with updates and photos of our pups. We felt very comfortable with them in his care. He let them get cozy on the couch and bed like they do at home and took them on walks! Highly recommend! Will be using Vadzim any time we need a dog sitter 🙂”
“What a kind and generous family! This was Winston's first stay with Amanda and Noah. I was glad he was staying with a family who owned and know Frenchies as they have their specific needs and energy level. Amanda had shared about her previous Frenchie who passed a couple of months ago and said it was wonderful to have Winston spend some time with them now, especially with their children and dog. Winston had some of his classic GI challenges in a new environment and I received detailed information each day. He received lots of cuddles and love. I was not at all worried leaving him with Amanda. She also shared some tips on food choices and nutrition from her previous experience as a Frenchie owner. Winston came home clean, relaxed, happy and well. I definitely will request Amanda and Noah to take care of Winston in the future. Great find!”
“We fully recommend Dawnula! She doesn’t shy away from a challenge and our pups Hunter and Turtle loved their stay. They are sad to leave her house when we picked them up! Hunter needs twice a day meds and Dawnula was able to ensure he was taken care of. We will be booking her again.”
“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!”
“Jessica is amazing! She sent TONS of high quality photos of our dog every day. We can tell she took great care of him and he had an awesome time. We would definitely recommend her and plan on boarding our dog with her again!”
“Ana took amazing care of my dog! She gave me frequent updates and pictures about how my pup was doing. I could tell how much love, attention, and care her and her daughter were giving to my dog. They took her on frequent walks and even took her hiking! I very strongly recommend Ana!!”
“Matt is fantastic! Our dog always has company to play with, tons of human love, and Matt never fails to send photos and video so we don’t miss our dog too much while we’re away. Matt will be our go to whenever we have to go away.”
“I highly recommend Laure & Matthew! Their house is on a quiet street with a big backyard and I received pictures and updates daily. My dog, Gracie, is a rescue with a few issues - she has 3 legs, is food obsessive, has a high prey drive for squirrels, and doesn’t like to walk on wood floors (lol). They worked with all of her quirks and I knew she was well taken care of. In the future, I will rebook with Laure/Matthew to watch Gracie anytime I’m out of town - I’ve already rebooked for next weekend!”
“Ponyo did an amazing job keeping our Olive happy, healthy, and engaged during her stay. She sent a ton of pictures each day, mixing useful information (poop quality and quantity) with adorable beagle faces around the yard. We are so grateful for the time she spent with Olive!”
“Eleanor was absolutely amazing with our pups while we were traveling internationally. She kept us at ease with consistent updates and lots of photos, which we really appreciated. It was clear they were in great hands the entire time. We’d highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Cathleen took excellent care of Daisy. Second time we had Cathleen watch her & she ran to the door at drop off. We really appreciated the frequent updates and pictures. Could tell Daisy loved her time there.”
“Incredible best sitter EVER and we have lots of friends who sit for us and love our dog, but Anand is almost a pet psychic! He really looked into my little anxious chiweenie’s heart and walked him, played with him and gave great advice on how to make our dog more socially acclimated. Above and beyond the job description we will call on him again!”

About: I’ve lived with cats since I adopted my first cat at 12 years old, I cared for her on my own in college and into her senior life, giving her medication and making sure she was always comfortable. I’ve lived with three cats that were not my own but treated them as they were, I cared for them when needed and loved every second of it! I now have a bonded pair that are three years old I adopted as kittens, I love playing with them as much as they do. I understand the importance of a good diet, exercise and enrichment and love to provide that for any cat.
“Sabrina did a great job doing drop in visits for my cat. She was very engaged in understanding her needs and preferences, which made it clear she was well taken care of”
“Rhea was wonderful about communication, and watched Charlie while we were visiting with family. Getting her Rover card updates with lots of happy cat photos made my day. I would definitely trust her with all my pets.”
“Krista was a fantastic pet sitter - very responsive and went far and beyond. Our kitty loved her and it was so lovely leaving town knowing that our kitty was well taken care of!”
“Emma took great care of our cats, and was especially proactive about making sure their food and water and litter were well maintained. She made it much easier to feel comfortable and have fun on our trip. The cats were happy and healthy when we got home!”
“Malaina was amazing! She took great care of my cats and went above and beyond to help keep them comfortable during hot weather and apartment maintenance. I would definitely recommend using Malaina.”
“Rebecca is an all star. Her communication was perfect; she was competent and reliable; and I felt completely at ease knowing that my cats were in such good hands. I highly recommend Rebecca!!!”
“Anne was awesome! She took great care of my two cats while I was away. What impressed me the most was her clear, concise communication and the effort she put in to bond with my kitties. She took extra time to play with them and give them company, alongside the brass tacks of feeding and cleaning. As long as she is willing, I’ll be trusting her with my cats anytime I need a sitter.”
“Conner was a great caregiver for my cat, Jesse! I felt very comfortable knowing that he was visiting while I was away! He provided updates and photos too! Conner and Sami provide excellent teamwork! I would recommend for sure!”
“Marcia was very friendly and great with our kitten. We were nervous to leave her alone for the first time, but Marcia sent lots of pictures and took a lot of our worry away. Will definitely be contacting her again in the future :)”
“This was Paula's 2nd sit with my cat Phaedra. As before, communication was prompt, clear and friendly. She is proactive, responsible and used common sense and good judgement when little challenges came up that were not foreseen. Phaedra is diabetic and Paula monitored her appetite and managed her insulin injection appropriately. I trust her to keep Phae safe, treat her kindly and help enrich this blind/deaf kitty's life while I'm away.”
“Briana did a wonderful job watching my two cats. She provided detailed notes every day, and photos to put my mind at ease. She administered my cat’s asthma medication with ease (something I struggle to do sometimes!). Both my cats were happy and content with her - I highly recommend her services!”
About: I grew up with dogs in my family and have my own dog now, so I understand pet care from both a lifelong-owner and daily-caretaker perspective. I've also been dog sitting for friends and through referrals for a while, which means I've cared for a range of temperaments and routines beyond just my own dog — from high-energy pups needing extra walks to more low-key dogs who just want company and consistency. What sets me apart is that I offer house sitting rather than boarding, so your dog stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with their own bed and yard — no adjustment period, no stress of a new environment. I'm attentive to routine (feeding times, medication if needed, favorite walk routes) and communicative throughout, with photo updates so you always know how things are going. I am currently dog-sitting full-time, so I can be with your pup at any time of day! If you need someone early or late, I am happy to accommodate! House sitting (at your home): I stay overnight so your dog can stick to their normal environment and routine — same bed, same yard, same schedule. I follow your feeding times, walk routine, and any medication schedule exactly as you'd do it yourself, and I keep a close eye on behavior changes, especially with senior or medically complex dogs. I send photo updates throughout the stay so you always know how things are going, and I'm reachable the whole time for any questions. Drop-in visits: I come to your home for focused visits to feed, give medication if needed, let your dog out or walk them, and give them attention and companionship. I stick closely to the schedule and instructions you provide, and send updates/photos after each visit.
“Koto did a great job taking care of my two elderly cats, Misu and Willow. She sent me frequent updates with photos, which put my mind at ease while I was traveling. Koto is caring, detail oriented and is clearly an animal lover. I highly recommend her!”
“Ingrid is the best!! She goes above and beyond every visit. She takes so may great pictures, gives detailed descriptions of behavior, is super communicative, and I can tell how happy my cats are to have her around! I could not reccommend her more strongly. Thanks Ingrid!!!”
“Justin was a great cat sitter for us over the Christmas break! We loved getting pics each day and he helped when the cat got into mischief. Would definitely book again!”
“Elizabeth was very professional and thorough. She checked in on my cat while I was out of town and provided excellent updates during the process, which put my mind at ease. I hope she's available the next time I'm out of town!”

My training style is positive, clear, and tailored to each dog, focusing on building strong communication, confidence, and good behavior that lasts.

Whether you’re looking for foundational training, ongoing reinforcement, or a trainer who truly understands dogs, I’m here to help. Dogs have always been a central part of my life. I shared many wonderful years with my own dog, who passed in 2025. Caring for her deepened my understanding of canine behavior, patience, and the importance of consistent, compassionate care.

These experiences influence my care for every dog, rooted in patience, understanding, and respect.

I am able to care for your pet at your home or my home. I will safely enter and leave the house as to not let any pet out of the door. I will ensure we have the equipment we need to have a safe and fun walk. I do ask that owners leave all necessary gear such as harness/leash/poop bags, in one area by the door for easy access. I can crate your dog if needed. And can offer outdoor playtime in your fenced yard.

“Felix was lovely to work with and took great care of our dog Reign! We received regular updates, photos, and videos and felt comfortable with Reign’s introduction and play time with Felix’s dog, Mabel. We definitely hope to work with Felix again in the future and would highly recommend his care!”
“Kiko had an amazing couple of days with Ms. Elise. She kept me updated with how the days were going and provided some great photos. We are looking forward to the next visit!”
“Kristen is such a gem! She is incredibly sweet and patient with my dogs quirks (and my requests)! She sends great photos and is very responsive. Very grateful to have Kristen as one of Izzy’s sitters!”
“Sofia was wonderful! She was super communicative throughout the day and was happy to accommodate some of the specific requests we have for our puppy around feeding and daily routines. We've found with our young GSP that not everyone is aware of some of the crazy that comes with high-energy breeds and puppies, but Sofia was fantastic. Our dog got plenty of exercise and activity, and we would definitely recommend her to anyone, especially if you have a working breed or younger dog.”
“I boarded RaKi with Anand for about a week, and I would definitely recommend him as an amazing caretaker. He was very communicative, responsive, and upfront about any concerns he noticed, while still handling everything calmly and confidently which was incredibly reassuring, especially with RaKi being just 4 months old and me being a new pup parent. Anand showed genuine care and love toward RaKi, and he kept me updated regularly with photos and behavior notes. I truly appreciated the attention, transparency, and kindness he put into caring for my puppy. He even sent RaKi home with a couple of toys he enjoyed during his stay, such a thoughtful gesture! Highly recommend Anand!”
“Tiffany took great care of my dog. I was so thankful that she was willing to watch him despite the early drop off and late pick up my job requires. She was great with communication and sent me pictures of him throughout the day. I can tell he had a great day because he didn’t seem to want to leave when I picked him up 😂 I would absolutely recommend Tiffany for any dog sitting needs.”
“Kind, responsive and provided lots of puppy updates. 1st Rover experience and we appreciated all the updates on our puppy! She was happy and relaxed at pick up!”

“Absolutely amazing care! We were vacationing through Seattle and had a few not dog friendly places we wanted to see. Our pup Tucker has a lot of anxiety and we were nervous about leaving him with someone new. Dylan was great with Tucker and the second day we dropped him off Tucker's tail was wagging and he trotted off with Dylan happy as could be. Tucker seemed to really enjoyed his time with Dylan and we enjoyed not having to worry about our puppy. Dylan sent us updates throughout the day and a really thorough report card type review of the day and all they did at the end of each day. They went on lots of walks and had puppy nap times. Would definitely recommend Dylan to anyone visiting or living in Seattle!”

About: I have been trusted with friends and families fur babies for almost 8 years, and had many years living with dogs as well. I have experience giving medication, caring for dogs in times of stress and anxiety, and of course going on daily walks. I have stayed overnight with dogs whose parents are out of town and I have experience with bigger dogs, as well as smaller breeds. I have also cared for a wide array of personalities as all dogs are very different, I enjoy learning about each dog I meet and how to have a good time with them. I work part time and have plenty of mornings available for pet care, I only work late nights once or twice a week and am almost always available after 8/9pm if needed. I am often going on a walk daily and bringing a dog along with me is even better! I am always making sure to cater to a dogs wants and needs, whether that be outside time running laps and playing fetch, or having down time inside and just hanging out. I understand that each dogs needs are different and being able to provide them with a fulfilling day is something I love!
“Sabrina is so great with our dog. She clearly cares about her and is very communicative and reliable with us. We appreciate her notes and her flexibility too!”
“Paula was super responsive and showed up promptly for her walks with Brandy. We got very detailed cards after each walk and Brandy was a happy pup when we got home. We’ve already booked Paula for future walks and dog sitting!”
“Alex has been walking my dog, Oliver, occasionally for a few years now and she has always been great, but she has been a real life saver in the last few weeks. I fractured my leg a few weeks ago and ended up on crutches full time - Alex has been working with me since to make sure that Oliver gets his exercise while I rest and heal. Oliver absolutely loves her and is so happy when she arrives. I would give her 6 stars if I could!”
“Katie was great! She arrived on time and was great with communicating. She included pictures of the walk and gave detail about her visit. Will ask Katie to walk my dogs again. Thanks so much! Highly recommend!”
About: I've been around animals of all kinds since I was a kid. I've cared for older more needy pets, as well as those who need lots of play and attention. Each animal is a unique individual, and I love getting to know their different personalities and quirks. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and as a cat parent of 3, I understand how to "speak" cat vs dog! But don't be fooled - I may be a "cat lady", but I love dogs just as much! I'm experienced in walking, playing, and caring for dogs of all sizes. I also love to send pictures and updates so you continue to have peace of mind while away from home. I'm a self-employed artist, so my schedule is super flexible! Whether you need a quick drop in or an extended stay, I have plenty of time to spend with your animal friend! My goal is to provide individualized care, so when you book with me, we'll chat about your specific pet and home needs. I know how important it is to have someone who trust taking care of your pets (they're members of your family)! I've cared for pets in both small apartments, and big homes with yards, so happy to accommodate in whatever way you think is best for you and your pet.
“Malaina has been walking Chewie for the past couple weeks and I couldn’t been happier with her services! She takes such great care of our pup, making sure he drinks water and takes breaks when playing fetch. Chewie always seems so happy on the pictures . Malaina has been super flexible with some of our schedule changes and last minute requests too! Highly recommend!!! Thanks Malaina!”
“Ben did a great job walking Remy last week as we were recovering from an injury - thanks for giving us a much needed break! Ben’s communication was great, he arrived in a timely manner, and Remy was happy and relaxed post walk!”
About: I have over 20 years of experience working with animals personally and professionally. I worked professionally at the Tulsa Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals from 2005-2008 and became the manager of puppy care. Upon returning to Seattle, I volunteered for PAWS Animal Shelter providing foster care for bottle feeding kittens and litters too young or sick to reside in the shelter. My former pets include three rescue cats (one with special needs), and one rescue dog. I currently have a 5 year old American Pit Bull Terrier / American Bulldog that I also rescued from PAWS Animal Shelter about a year ago. We love going for walks and hikes together, and visiting Sniffspots around the Seattle area. I love caring for animals and will treat your animals like I treat my own. I currently reside in Ballard and work from home. My work schedule is flexibleal which makes last minute walks and drop-ins easy for me. I have recently reopened my Rover account and hope to get some new clients over the summer months! I work a flexible, part time schedule from home. Both my flexible work hours and the fact that I work from home make both regular and last minute walks and drop-in visits easy for me to do in Ballard and surrounding areas. I always offer free meet and greets either around the neighborhood or in your home to make sure that I am a good for for both you and your pet. When I come to your home for drop-in visits, your animal(s) will be my one and only focus. I am highly respectful of privacy and understand that having a new person in your home can feel vulnerable, especially at first.
“Mira walked my pup Peanut who can be a rascal on the leash and did a great job. Also super accommodating with some issues on getting into the building which was much appreciated! 100% would book again!”
“Taylor is great with our dog! She walked her while having a bad recovering hot spot and gave us helpful updates each day as well as helped put her donut cone back on.”
“Sierra did drop in visits/ walks for my dog Shuki & she did a great job! I appreciated all the pics & updates! I always know that my dog is in the best hands with Sierra & there is zero stress having such a responsible & experienced dog sitter in charge.”
“She was so great with my dog that had surgery and required a little extra care. Followed instructions and had no problem giving him meds and plenty of TLC. Would highly recommend.”
“I really trust Deanna with my dog, Stella who has a really hard time with strangers and is very shy. Deanna does a great job with my high-needs dog and is very dependable!”
“Alana is awesome! She took my two dogs out for walks while I was out of town. I have a boarder collie mix that can be leash aggressive and she handled him professionally (her dog has it also). I'd 100% recommended her!”
“Rhea helped take care of Tusker on short notice. It's clear that Rhea can read dogs well and cares about their well-being. Rhea provided detailed updated, which helped my separation anxiety!”
“Alia took great care of my dog and cat. My dog gets anxiety when we are gone and she did a great job with him and provided updates on how he was doing each day. She was prompt in responses when I reached out about specific needs (she was watching them over the 4th of July and I was concerned about fireworks affecting the anxiety). I would definitely have her look after my pets again in the future!”

“We are so glad to have had Tiffany watch Poppy for a longer stay while we got married! We were updated with adorable photos, she even did a little photoshoot and sent us home with a very cute printed pic of Poppy. Communication was easy and Tiffany was flexible when we had a change in plans to pick Poppy up early.

“Emily is the dog whisperer! My senior dog who dislikes most people thrived in her care. I felt she was well taken care of and had limited to no anxiety because of it!”
“My dog, Sabi, was super happy to stay at Matthew's house with his dogs Lady and Nelson. Lady even got my dog to play with her, which is a rare thing (my dog is usually most interested in people if tennis balls aren't available). I received tons of photos and videos during the stay, which was wonderful. I could tell from the photos that Sabi was immediately comfortable with Matthew and his pups - she was on the couch, bed, and a chair with his dogs, roaming in the backyard, and as excited for her meals as she normally is at home.”
“He was so kind and took wonderful care of my dog! Made sure everything was talked through before I left him overnight, I had no doubt my dog was going to be taken good care of.”
“Cheryl was great with my dog Bean! She scheduled a meet up to talk through everything about him and meet him. She also gave great updates every day on how he was doing. He seemed very comfy with her and we would love to have her watch him again!”
About: Over the years, my husband and I have shared our lives with all kinds of dogs: farm dogs, little dogs, a Great Dane in a studio apartment, and now our Mini Australian Shepherd. We have learned and refined our dog ownership skills over time, finally investing in professional training for both our dog and ourselves in 2025. That experience shaped the kind of care I offer today. I believe dogs thrive with clear structure, consistency, and calm communication. I strive to provide the kind of boarding experience I wish I could find for my own dog, where training, routines, and boundaries are respected while you're away. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my day. We have a large, fully fenced backyard, daily walks, and a very friendly Mini Australian Shepherd who enjoys canine company. Your dog won't be left alone for a typical workday. I do leave the house for school drop-offs and pick-ups, errands, or weekend activities. Dogs should be comfortable being alone for a few hours. Because I have both a young child and my own dog, I only accept dogs that: -Are friendly with children and other dogs. -Are up to date on vaccinations and flea prevention. -Can comfortably settle into a family home.
“My dog loved Don! He took such good care of my girl. Lots of walks, lots of pets, lots of updates. I felt very comfortable leaving her in his hands. I’d definitely look to book with him again.”
“Wonderful experience! This was our first time using Rover and will 100% use again if we can get Katrina or others like her to care for our dog. She had very prompt communication, cute updates, and a great deal of patience while Kylo adjusted to a house with more people than our own and another dog (Kylo’s an only child, pandemic puppy). We were glad to know Kylo and their dog, Pablo, got along well and enjoyed walks, hikes, and trips to the park while we were vacationing for the week.”
“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 and Gui were the best hosts! Bobo truly had his own vacation in form of dog parks and couch snuggles. Your pup would be lucky to be cared by them!”
“My 2 dogs were so lucky to have Diane as their weekend Mom. She spoiled them rotten and took extra good care of my anxious old doggy. I definitely recommend”
“OMG, what a professional, friendly and knowledgable sitter Julie is! We couldn't be happier, esp knowing she's near and able to sit for us again. She gave Ollie, our senior Aussie, lots of attention and care (meds 2x/day, frequent pee breaks, more). Julie is a treasure!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Our dog was so well cared for, and it truly felt like a home away from home. We loved receiving daily photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book again. Highly recommend!”
