“Lucy loved her time with Casey and Ron. She got tons of love and activity and came back home super happy. Now she pulls towards their house when we go for walks. 10/10 would use again.”
“Isabella was so great with CC! She was great to communicate with, pick up and drop off was super easy, and I got back a very tired dog! I would love to have CC stay with her again.”
“We left our 2 yr old lab puppy - Butter with Alexa. Alexa was considerate about needs of Butter as a young and energetic puppy and she made sure her house was safe for Butter. While staying with Alexa, Butter went on new adventures, made new dog and cat friends and a wonderful time staying home and playing with her daughter. Thanks Alexa for taking good care of Butter.”
“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!”
“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.”

“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!”
“She was lovely and flexible! My dog had never been boarded before and it went beautifully. Then, when my flight got canceled she was willing to extend his stay.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and currently have three cats of my own, each with their own unique personality and needs. Caring for them has given me experience with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior, administering oral medications when needed, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every pet is different, and I always take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions carefully. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own, and I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I currently have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable, attentive care for your pets. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting on most weekdays and weekends. I always make time to give each pet plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I also keep your home clean and secure, and I’ll send regular updates with photos so you always know how your furry family member is doing.
“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!”
“Yingqi took great care of Mabel while we were gone for a couple of days. She was prompt, reliable, and easy to coordinate with and sent us videos with updates. We would be happy to use Yingqi again!”
“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!❤️”
“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.”
“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 :-)”
“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.”
“Lorena and her husband Andreas were so great! They took lots of photos and videos of Izzy Jean which helped us while being away, knowing she was having a good time and being well cared for. I would highly recommend them for your sitting needs. Kim”
“My dog did wonderfully with Eric!! He sent consistent pictures and was super communicative about how my dog was doing. He was great with my quirky goofball and we're planning on coming back!! ☺️”
“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.”

“First of all Amy is beyond exceptional as a pet sitter, plant waterer and home care aficionado. Five stars does not adequately salute Amy’s skills and wisdom. We can now add to our list of raves about Amy that she caught a water main leak at our house early, alerting us quickly and helped save is from an expensive water bill. Seriously, Amy has magical powers!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was about 15. I have lots of experience with administering medication, cleaning litter boxes, and understanding a cat’s comfort level with interaction and affection. I have cared for a wide range of cats, from extremely friendly to uncomfortable with strangers.
“Yingqi did such a wonderful job! Super communicative, sent photos and videos, and even left a fun little movie on for our cats! Highly recommend! Will be booking again. :)”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and absolutely love being around them! I have a 13 year old cat of my own who I’ve had since she was a kitten, so I have lots of experience with all the little things that come with caring for a cat. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, cuddles, and making sure they have everything they need to be happy and comfortable. I’ve also house sat for families with cats many times, so I know how important it is to keep them comfortable and stick to their normal routine while their owners are away. I also understand that every cat is different, some want all the attention and others would rather do their own thing! I’m happy to adjust to your cat’s personality and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll always treat your cat like I would my own!
“We’re so happy we chose Shan to take care of our 5 y.o. Hoshi. She took care of everything; feeding, petting, playing, scooping…and her daily updates were so helpful. It’s our first time with a Rover and for sure we will keep counting on her to take care of our boy!”
“Angie was an incredible sitter for my girl! We are new to the neighborhood, and Angie was responsive, proactive, and incredibly gracious when it came to my weird situation. My elderly girl isn’t always the easiest to care for (i.e., poops outside of her box when I’m gone), but Angie handled it all! Thank you, Angie!! We absolutely look forward to seeing Angie again when I go on another trip.”
“Amethyst, is amazing! I had a piece of mind knowing my kitty was going to be in good hands for 8 days. It was my first time leaving kitty and was super sad. However, Amethyst sent me fabulous rover cards and that always made me feel better. I would recommend Amethyst to anyone in the Rover world. My kitty sure loved her! I can’t wait to ask her back.”
“Brittany did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats! She was extremely quick to respond and I received pictures and updates for every visit. One of them typically disappears when new people are in the house, but she was completely comfortable with Brittany and did not hide away. It was very comforting to know that the kitties were happy and well taken care of while I was away. :)”
“Isabella took exceptionally great care of my little kitty! The notes she always left after each check-in were very thorough, and I loved all of the pictures she sent. She was very accommodating and helpful, and really went the extra mile! I would absolutely recommend her as a sitter for anyone who wants complete peace of mind while they are away on a trip 😁”
“Allison is very reliable and responsible person. She took care of our cats and our cats were very happy to see her. She sent me notes and pictures every visit, which gave me peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Clive was an outstanding sitter for our rescue city Hazel. He sent us many photos and details on her eating and behavior. He hung out with her every time. She wormed up to home and laid down next to I’m. He was a tremendous sittier and we are having him back several times this summer. We highly recommend him.”
About: I have cared for a kitten who transitioned to a young cat. I was the sole caretaker and performed all duties, including cleaning the litter box, having her sleep in my room, feeding her at the appropriate time, etc!
“Olena took a very good care of our two cats for the duration of three weeks! Everything went smoothly, it was fully stress-free for us and our cats! She helped to ensure cats have a good feeding routine and had always clean environment around them. Thank you so much Olena for being so amazing ❤️”
“Caleb was a fantastic cat sitter! He was reliable and communicative. He sent us daily updates with pictures and most importantly, Caleb gave us peace of mind knowing our cat was in good hands. We'll definitely be using Caleb again next time we need a sitter.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 10 years and currently have three cats of my own. Through caring for them every day, I’ve gained experience with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring health and behavior, administering oral medications when needed, and providing plenty of playtime and affection. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to earn their trust while following each owner’s care instructions carefully. Whether your cat is energetic, shy, or a senior, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind.
“Nicolas is a fantastic cat sitter! I got photos and updates after each visit and my anixous kitty warmed right up to him. My cat had a slight dental emergency while I was away and he kept me updated”
“Emma was so responsive despite the last minute nature of the booking. She was communicative and flexible and took great care of my little kitty who needs sub-q fluids everyday. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a great attentive sitter!”
About: Ever since I can remember, my family either had a cat or a dog in the house. I’ve had longer experience with cats, but have been around dogs nearly the same amount. I have experience with house sitting in the past as well! Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine well, as I only work three days a week in the early morning, leaving me with a lot of open availability. In my home, my cat and my roommate’s cat are on a consistent routine, being fed healthy wet or dry food twice a day, and always having access to water, and a clean litter box. Both cats get lots of love, attention, and care.

“I had my pup over at Yinqi’s for daycare and it was a great experience! Yinqi is very pleasant and communicative and she sent me updates throughout the day. Hazel seemed to have a great time over there and I’d definitely book again!”

“We booked Felix on short notice for evening daycare, and he was very thoughtful in assessing whether our dog would be a good fit for his setup. We really appreciated the detailed updates and feedback throughout the stay. Felix has a strong understanding of dog behavior and group dynamics, which gave us peace of mind, and our somewhat nervous dog seemed to fit right in with his pack. Thanks Felix!”
About: Hi! I’m Samira (Sam), and I provide a safe, loving, and active home for dogs while their owners are away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so your pup gets plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. They’ll go on 2–3 walks a day, and I’ll send you plenty of photos and updates! I will never have more than three dogs ever at one time. I’m doing rover because I like dogs, have a slow job and the money I make goes toward my student loan 🙂. We have a large fenced outdoor area, and daily walks, playtime, and exercise are part of our routine. I have a sweet 3-year-old Australian Shepherd named Sailor, who I’ve had since he was a puppy. He loves other dogs and people and is always excited to have a new friend around! I also have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks and playing fetch or prefers lounging on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while you’re away. I have a very flexible work schedule during the week, which allows me to provide frequent dog walks and potty breaks. I also currently have an active dog, so caring for another animal is easy for me since I already follow a consistent routine with him. I follow the instructions you leave me and take that seriously. Reactive dogs are not a good match for me, I’m so sorry, and they must get along with my dog. Let’s link up and have the pups meet and go over your dog needs!
“Laura, helped us out with a last minute request to watch Zelda. She was amazing from communication to accommodating us last minute and taking such great care of Zelda. So happy to have found her and we will be back.”
“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!”
“Darlayna sent us tons of pictures and videos during Copper's stay, it's so comforting. Was really easy to set up pickup and drop off times too! Copper was well-looked after.”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have spent decades caring for all kinds of pets. I’m both a cat and dog person at heart, and today I’m happily ruled by my Mini Schnauzer, Blue, who rarely lets me out of his sight. Over the years I’ve cared for pets at every stage of life, from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors. Animal care has always been second nature to me, I bring patience, experience, and genuine love to every furry friend I look after. I"m currently taking a break from the 9-5, available to walk your pup or check in on your kitties with great flexibility if I am in town. I have a completely fenced yard if we are doing day care, and companion pup Blue to keep your dog company. Calm mellow house for those anxious pups who like quiet.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I understand that every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I currently have a 6-year-old Australian Shepherd, whom I've raised since she was 8 weeks old, as well as two cats. My Australian Shepherd is spayed and friendly with both dogs and cats, making her a great companion for visiting pets. Growing up, I also cared for a variety of animals, including dogs, chickens, a parrot, rabbits, turtles, and hamsters, which has given me experience with many different personalities and care needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've pet sat for friends' dogs and puppies. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or relaxing at home, I'll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I also have experience administering oral medications and am happy to accommodate puppies who need extra potty breaks, structure, or a little more patience. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I'll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I’m currently studying for my pharmacist state board exam, which allows me to spend most of my fine at home and provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to maintain your pet’s normal routine including regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals and any medications they may need. I prioritize creating a safe and welcoming environment for every pet. While I do not have a yard, I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood with plenty of opportunities for daily walks, exercise, and enrichment. I have a friendly social Australian Shepherd who enjoys being around both dogs and cats. I also have a crate for my dog if needed to help create a calm environment, provide personal space, or allow pets to have a comfortable adjustment period. I always supervise interactions and make sure each pet feels safe.
“we had a great experience with eric! He watched our two pups for daycare and was incredibly communicative throughout the day—sending lots of photo updates and checking in often. One of my dogs is usually very fearful of new people, but he was patient and kind, and she warmed up to him quickly. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We highly recommend eric !”
“Bubbles seemed to have a fun evening with Jun. Just as important, Jun seemed to enjoy Bubbles! Jun was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. He even sent Bubbles home with a new toy.🙂”
“We absolutely LOVED our time with Cheryl. She was so attentive to all of Millie’s needs and truly went above and beyond. She’s experienced, kind, reliable, and even spent time training Millie! We would definitely recommend her services and will be booking again.”

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly love caring for pets of all kinds! I grew up in a home with multiple pets at a time, including dogs, cats, and small animals, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my everyday life. In recent years, I have gained even more hands on experience through house sitting and caring for both dogs and cats while their owners are away. I also regularly help care for the dog in the home where I babysit, including providing attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and everyday care. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and I treat every animal I care for as if they were my own. I’m attentive, responsible, loving, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently a full time student at the University of Washington and also work part time as a nanny, but my schedule still gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends and am happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and needs. Whether it’s walks, drop in visits, overnight stays, or just some extra company and attention, I’m committed to making time for your pet and giving them the best care possible. I’m also very organized with my schedule, so you can count on me to be reliable and make your pet a priority! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority! I know how much trust it takes to leave both your pet and your home in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I’m happy to follow any routines, instructions, feeding schedules, walking preferences, or house rules you provide so your pet can stay as comfortable and consistent as possible. For walks and drop in visits, I’ll always make sure your pet is secure and supervised, while giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and love. When pet sitting, I’m also very respectful of your home and will make sure it’s kept safe, clean, and cared for while you’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and will always communicate with you so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and in good hands!

About: I have a variety of experience house, dog, and cat sitting for animals of all ages, and many with medical needs. I am personable and punctual, and have a very flexible day-to-day schedule and love to meet new pets! Open for short notice bookings! I work fully remotely, and so have a very flexible daily schedule, into which some pet time fits great. I have plenty of free time on a weekly basis for unique needs and timing. I have extensive experience pet sitting at client's homes, including overnight. I think caring for pets on their home turf is a great way to get to know them and provide enrichment and fun times!

“Sebastian is very professional and kind. He is easy to communicate with. Our dog is difficult to control on a leash but he handled her well over an hour long walk. Would highly recommend his services, and plan to book again! Thanks Sebastian!”
“Maria was great! She showed up on time every day and sent photos and updates of my dog's walks. He looked happy, and I'm glad he got to get outside during my work day. I'll definitely be booking with her again.”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember and can’t imagine life without them! I dog sat throughout high school and am looking to continue during my college career. I love all kinds of dogs and really miss mine from home—I’m hoping to get some dog time in while I’m going to school away from home. I’m currently going to school at the University of Washington studying environmental science, so I’ll have plenty of time to hang out with your dogs! I am in a sorority and don’t currently have a job. I am willing and able to follow any instructions for how you want your pet to be cared for. I would love to go for frequent walks and spend lots of time with them so they are happy and have someone to keep them company!
About: I've taken care of people's pets, and my own, since childhood. From dogs of all sizes, to bunnies, and more, I'm comfortable with it all! I look forward to caring for your furry loved ones! I currently have a relatively open schedule to meet your pet or house sitting needs. Let me know and I can likely accommodate your requests! I hope to bring a kind and fun presence for your pet in their own home and am well versed in gentle introductions. I know every pet has their own preferences and needs, and I enjoy both a calm, relaxing drop in visit, and an energetic trek through the park, depending on what's best for them!
About: Hi! My name is Emery, and I have several years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Ever since I was young, I’ve helped my aunt care for dogs and cats through her in-home pet care and boarding business, giving me hands-on experience with a wide variety of pets and their individual needs. My passion for animal care began while helping care for my own elderly dog, which taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and paying close attention to each pet’s comfort. I also have experience administering oral medications, including providing my elderly dog with GABA as part of his care. Whether your pet is energetic and loves long walks or is a senior who needs a slower pace and extra support, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. If your older dog still enjoys getting outside but can’t walk long distances, I’m more than willing to accommodate them, even if that means using a stroller so they can safely enjoy some fresh air. I understand how important it is to keep your pet’s routine consistent, so I’m committed to carefully following all instructions and preferences you provide. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I also love keeping owners connected while they’re away and am happy to send regular updates and plenty of photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether I’m stopping by for a walk, a drop-in visit, or extended care, my goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and secure. I would be honored to care for your furry family member and look forward to meeting both you and your pet! I’m a college student and am currently only taking classes from 6-8:30 pm, Monday and Wednesday. Outside these windows of time I have plenty of availability! I am comfortable walking your dog outside and have had experience with protecting my own dog in hostile situations whether that be at a dog park or on a walk. I am able to crate your dog based on their needs, administer medication as needed (capsule or oral), or even follow strict feeding regimens.
About: I have 6 pets as of now, but have had a total of 8. I am very experienced in caring for both cats and dogs, having grown up with them, and am well-versed in walking, feeding, and loving these animals. I have experience in dealing with health issues and administering medication in the form of oral syrups/pills and injections (diabetic and acid reflux). I am currently a student at UW, but have an open schedule over the summer. I am available over the weekends and weekdays between 9 am and 11 pm for drop-ins. But if there are special instructions, we can always sort out a plan that suits both parties, as I am flexible! My services will mostly be given at my client's house as I live with roommates who have allergies. I am incredibly open and encourage scheduling meetings and interviews beforehand to ensure that this arrangement works for both parties. Regarding caring for the animals, I would spend ample time getting to know your pets, not only to make sure that they are getting emotional care, but to build a trusting relationship that will allow me to walk, feed, and care for them. As mentioned, I have experience in handling medication should the situation need it, as long as I am told and shown the procedure beforehand.

“Isabella was so great with CC! She was great to communicate with, pick up and drop off was super easy, and I got back a very tired dog! I would love to have CC stay with her again.”
“We left our 2 yr old lab puppy - Butter with Alexa. Alexa was considerate about needs of Butter as a young and energetic puppy and she made sure her house was safe for Butter. While staying with Alexa, Butter went on new adventures, made new dog and cat friends and a wonderful time staying home and playing with her daughter. Thanks Alexa for taking good care of Butter.”

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 :-)”
“My dog did wonderfully with Eric!! He sent consistent pictures and was super communicative about how my dog was doing. He was great with my quirky goofball and we're planning on coming back!! ☺️”
“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.”
“I’ve been using Rover for years and must say Katie + fam was top notch - one of the best Ive experienced! Such a sweet family, sent lots of pics and updates. I could tell my pup was well taken care of and gave me so much peace of mind while away. Couldn’t recommend enough! I will definitely be using Katie again in the future”
“Yoshimi had a great time with Cheryl. She was very nice, sent pictures, was very knowledgeable about animals. I would definitely ask her to board him again.”
About: Hi! I’m Samira (Sam), and I provide a safe, loving, and active home for dogs while their owners are away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so your pup gets plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. They’ll go on 2–3 walks a day, and I’ll send you plenty of photos and updates! I will never have more than three dogs ever at one time. I’m doing rover because I like dogs, have a slow job and the money I make goes toward my student loan 🙂. We have a large fenced outdoor area, and daily walks, playtime, and exercise are part of our routine. I have a sweet 3-year-old Australian Shepherd named Sailor, who I’ve had since he was a puppy. He loves other dogs and people and is always excited to have a new friend around! I also have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks and playing fetch or prefers lounging on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while you’re away. I have a very flexible work schedule during the week, which allows me to provide frequent dog walks and potty breaks. I also currently have an active dog, so caring for another animal is easy for me since I already follow a consistent routine with him. I follow the instructions you leave me and take that seriously. Reactive dogs are not a good match for me, I’m so sorry, and they must get along with my dog. Let’s link up and have the pups meet and go over your dog needs!
“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”
“Appa had such a great time with Peter and Serena! He instantly became best friends with their sweet pup, Google. Peter and Serena kept me updated with pictures and were always quick to answer any questions, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m so grateful for the love and care they gave Appa. I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for amazing dog sitters!”
“Michelle was fantastic with our Aussie Tyler! Tyler got along great with her dog Valkyrie, and she sent us lots of updates. When our flights got severely delayed on the way home, Michelle was super flexible and kept Tyler for an extra night!”
“Toffee loved her stay with Maiko and her family. Maiko sent us beautiful pictures every day, and it was clear Toffee was super comfortable. Medication was given on time, and they even walked Toffee at one of her regular parks. Thank you!”
“Sheena took great care of my dog, Uno. She handled introductions between Uno and her own dog really well. She updated me with photos, and Uno looked like he was having a great time. It was clear he was in good hands and well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Sheena to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog sitter.”
“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!”
“Michael was an amazing sitter for my dog and communicator for me!! We had a last minute schedule change and were traveling to Seattle unexpectedly. Michael was so helpful and accommodating to make this work with less notice than usual! He was prompt and communicative sending me pictures of Sox updates along the way. His dog Ellie was very chill and seemed to get along with Sox great. I definitely would (and will!) work with Michael again!”
“This is the second time we've send our dog to Carolyn, and we will continue coming back. She keeps our dog active, is communicative in game-planning any behavioral challenges that might arise, takes plenty of photos, and in general is just easy to work with. Thanks again Carolyn!”
