“What can I say about Erica except that she was absolutely fantastic. I was a bit concerned about Sophie because she's so small (5 lbs) and frankly can be a bit of a challenge around other dogs and children (Erica has both) but wow, were my concerns misplaced. Erica did an amazing job with Sophie and gave us constant feedback with posted commentary and photos of what they were doing. We got way more than we paid for. It's clear that while Erica takes her job seriously, she also just loves dogs. What a sweet, cool, nice woman. I can't say enough great things about her. Sophie seemed sad to leave. I guess that says it all.”
“Emma was awesome! She sent us daily updates and I could tell she was treating our sweet Maple with so much care. She even bought her some fun treats to have during her stay. Would definitely book again!”
“Matt took great care of Nola while we were out of town! We got lots of pictures each day, and it was clear she had an absolute blast playing with the other dogs and meeting new people at the breweries :)”
“Maria was amazing with my dog Comet! He had such a good time with her and her dogs! He was wagging his tail both when I dropped him off. I look forward to having him stay with her again!”
“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!”
“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!❤️”
“This was our first time leaving our dog Charlie since we lost her big brother, so we were a little nervous. Kevin and Kandace were amazing and very quickly set us at ease! We loved getting pictures to regularly update us on her adventures with them, and she came home happy as can be! Will definitely be booking again in the future :)”
“Kirsten is amazing, she is super accommodating, actually cared for our needs and wants and was super quick to respond and provides photo updates. Our dog has separation anxiety and it isn't easy finding someone we think would be a good fit. 6 stars if I could, we have already booked again!”
About: I have been dog sitting and boarding for 3 years and I love doing so. I am also a professional photographer and provide your lovely fur children's free photos. I communicate with the owners regularly and update. I work from home, dogs have free access to back yard which is fully fenced. All dogs get 1 Apple Tag during the stay for peace of mind. - Apple Tag provided overnight stays only. If you want to use Apple Tag, please ask when you book! I work from home and spend most of my time at home, so your dog will rarely be left alone. At least one adult (my partner or I) is always home to provide supervision, companionship, and care. I typically free-feed dogs unless you have a different feeding routine, and fresh water is available 24/7 to keep them well hydrated. Our home is truly dog-friendly. Dogs are welcome on the couch, enjoy plenty of cuddles, and sleep comfortably indoors as part of the family. We have a fully fenced yard, and dogs have 24/7 access to the outdoor potty area whenever they need it. Our home is located on a quiet, low-traffic street in a safe neighborhood, making it ideal for walks and playtime. For extra peace of mind, each overnight guest is provided with an Apple AirTag during their stay (owners must provide a collar for the AirTag to attach to). We only accept small and medium-sized dogs, and we host just one client's dog(s) at a time to ensure they receive plenty of individual attention, care, and a stress-free environment.
“Tiffany is awesome! My dog has behavioral needs that i can’t trust with everybody!!!!!! She seems to be a natural and or the connection between her and my dog is awesome”
“Allanah was so good with our girl Juno! She was available on short notice, which was fantastic, and she was so patient and kind with our sometimes-anxious pup. Would absolutely recommend and will book again whenever we go somewhere we're unable to bring Juno!”
“This is our third time with Rachael, and our dog gets so excited when she realizes where we are when I drop her off. Rachael is so communicative and puts us at ease with pictures videos and updates. We are so grateful we found her!”
“Millie had another fantastic sleep away camp experience with Nikko and co. She truly did not want to leave at the end! The videos and photos we always receive makes me 100% confident that she is so loved during her time with Maria and Kalyan. And she LOVES Nikko and all the other daycare visitors she gets to meet. A big thank you as always!”
“Jennifer is so kind and accommodating. Opie was very happy to stay with her and play with his new friends. We will definitely be using her again. Thank you!”
“Sharon was a great communicator and very warm and receptive from the beginning. She took wonderful care of Kaju, careful of his special needs following a recent surgery. Would happily recommend her and use her services again.”
“Martha took great care of my Bernese puppy. She sent so many pictures while he was playing, and many while he was snuggling with him, reflecting how comfortable he was. Martha communicated frequently and was responded quickly. We highly recommend her.”
About: I've had cats and dogs at home for the last 18 years. Since the last of my fur babies passed away there is plenty of room in the house and in my heart to take care of others. I have dog sat for friends over the years and have a lot of experience with senior pets and medical issues. I work from home full-time during the week and am readily available to potty, walk, feed, or play with your dog or cat as needed. I have a decent-sized fully-fenced yard for your dog to potty or play in, and I would never leave them outside unsupervised. My home is big enough to accommodate a large dog and I have baby gates if needed.

“Chelsey did a fantastic job of watching my cat for a week. He warmed up to her really fast and she was always super responsive and provided great pictures! Would be happy to use her services again.”
“Fabulous experience. Melissa was attentive and loving with Big Guy. she went above and beyond when he needed to go to the vet. She communicated often and well. How do I give her 6 stars? I hope she will come back and help us again.”
“Haley was wonderful and I felt that from our first meet and greet. The cats seemed to trust her immediately, which is great. I didn’t have any issues when I came home, and my cats were happy and healthy. Highly recommend Haley, and I am so glad to have found my new go-to sitter!”
“Salena was wonderful with my two cats! She was attentive, sent lots of photos, and left my place looking great when I got back. She was really easy to communicate with and asked great questions during the meet and greet too. I would definitely have her look after my cats again!”
“Allie is incredible!! She answers any messages promptly and provides excellent service for my animals while I’m traveling. Highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs! A true professional in every regard!”
“DeAnna was absolutely amazing with my 13 year old kitty, Nala. She was very attentive to instructions, and made sure Nala got everything she needed including play time and cuddles. This was my first time leaving my girl alone since moving to West Seattle, and I was really nervous about it. But DeAnna was so communicative and friendly and Nala had a great time weekend with her drop ins. DeAnna will definitely be my go to in the future!”
“Kelsey was fantastic! She went above and beyond trying to make our cat feel comfortable. She was so communicative and sent the greatest photos and videos. She made all of our worries go away. I trust Kelsey with our cat and will definitely reach back out for future trips. Thank you Kelsey!”
“Karen is amazing. She stepped in to help me when I had an emergency trip out of town. This is the second time she has cared for my cat duo and they love her—even the cranky old one that gets a pill every day. It’s stressful to leave our animals in the care of others but I feel totally confident now that I’ve found Karen!”
“I felt so at ease having Kevin check in on my two cats. They both seemed very comfortable with him, even my more timid kitty. He catered to their energetic and playful personalities, and sent great updates. I would definitely ask Kevin to come back for check ins again!”
“Christina took great care of our three cats, including our elderly orange tabby who requires a couple medications. She was professional, timely, and we received cute pictures and detailed updates from her visits. Would definitely book Christina again.”
“I've always had a great experience with Maura. She is punctual and takes care of my cats really well. Both my cats are very comfortable around her (even my introverted and scared cat). I love that she sends a detailed message about the cats along with pictures after every check in.”
About: My affinity for felines began when I was just a wee kid. I was always fascinated by them and strived to learn about them, which helped me be at the forefront for my friends and family to take care of their young ones if they ever had to leave for vacation or whatever life has to throw at you. I've had the pleasure of taking care of antisocial cats, the shy and curious cats, and the snuggly and affectionate cats, whichever kind of cat will feel respected and safe as they are under my supervision and care.
“Morgan was amazing and a huge help while I was on vacation. This was my first time using Rover, and she made it a very positive experience. She was great with the kitties, very responsive, and she made it so easy to relax knowing the kitties were in great hands!”
“Pinar was so wonderful with our difficult-to-look-after cat. She was very patient and was able to read when our cat needed distance. She also sent us many photos and wonderful updates. I highly recommend her.”
About: Ive taken care of cats since I was a kid. I currently have a 2 year old cat who is a tripod. Ive always loved cats.. I possibly have a giant soft spot for them and can't resist giving them treats. My cat Smokey was very traumatized by her amputation, I am very good at keeping my energy calm to keep the kitties calm :)
“Hollie was great ! The bunnies have never been so well taken care of when we were out of town. The updates and photos were appreciated ! Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time leaving our cats and using Rover. Libby made the whole experience easy! She gave us great updates and took excellent care of our cats. We were nervous to be away from them but Libby quickly put our worries to rest. We will definitely be using Libby’s services again in the future!”

“Maria is fantastic! Marky is hesitant when it comes to interacting with people and dogs when I am not with him but Maria showed him there was nothing to fear! They take beautiful walks together, naps with his friends, and gets to play all day in a pack. He comes home tired and happy when the day is done. Maria really loves all of the dogs like her own”
“We were grateful for Kelly’s flexibility and willingness to watch our dog on New Year’s Day while my husband and I worked 12hr shifts. Buster was one tired, happy puppy after playing all day with his new pup friends. Thank you again, Kelly!”
“Maria was wonderful with my senior dog! She was great at communicating and was so thoughtful with how to make my dog as comfortable as possible in her home. Will definitely work with Maria again!”
“Matt was super responsive and sent a ton of photos of Charlie's visit so I knew he was having fun. He was wiped out when he came home! Will definitely use Matt again. ”
“Our dog Midge loved spending the day with Kirsten and her dog Bear! Kirsten was very thorough with her meet and greet and listened to us explain all of Midge's little quirks. Midge was tired and happy after a long walk and romping around the yard with her doggie pals. You can tell Kirsten and her family are total dog people and will take care of your own doggo as if it were their own. We're planning to use Kirsten for more day care and overnight stays in the future!”
“Fantastic sitters! Bodhi came home happy and tired, which is always a good sign. We really appreciated the updates and photos throughout the day. We’d definitely book again!”
“Elle and Scott are amazing, and really made my life so much easier when I started working. My dog is nervous and timid around new people and they really took the time to make him feel comfortable. My dog loves to go to their house and gets to play with other dogs all day. By time I pick him up he is ready to go straight to bed.”
“Nancy is warm and caring, which Finley sensed as soon as she opened the door. Finley ran into the house to greet Nancy and never looked back. She was instantly comfortable with her, which put us at ease too. We trust Finley’s instincts about people and she loved her time with Nancy.”
“Eric is amazing. We've been taking our Lab almost 2-3x a week and also leave him there for overnight boarding whenever we are out of town. His place is perfect for play time and lots of space for dogs to play.”
“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.”
“Tiffany was such a wonderful sitter for my pup! She was very sweet with him and sent pictures along the way. I could tell my pup had a great time once I picked him up.”
“Shaneik did great with both my pups. One of my dogs has anxiety, and I was worried I wouldn’t be able to leave him with anyone. Shaneik was super understanding, and both my dogs were really comfortable and calm with her. I’d recommend Shaneik!”
“Luna had a great time with Ravi. Came back home looking like she had a great day and when she returned for her second day of day care, was very excited for more!”
About: Most people call me Josh. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I've lived with them for most of my life. I am recently dog-free and I miss having dog energy in my house. I've raised two dogs through basic obedience to adulthood, one with a class, and one largely on my own. I am personally a big believer in the methods described in The Art of Raising a Puppy, because I have had excellent results with their techniques, but will of course prioritize whatever approach is preferred by owners. I am happy to help reinforce any basic obedience your dog may be working on, as well as senior dogs. I am comfortable with a wide range of dog breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Highly reactive dogs are not my favorite, but "highly reactive" can be subjective, so I will consider such dogs on a case by case basis. I am happy to work with dogs of varying activity levels, but extremely high-activity dogs will also be considered on a case-by-case basis. I am currently working from home and am available for dropoff in-home daycare most weekdays and dog boarding (including weekends). My schedule for my dog was three walks a day (morning, afternoon/dinnertime, bedtime) so that is what I'm used to, but I am happy to work with clients to discuss their routine and work with them to agree on an experience that fits their and their dog's needs. I currently have no other animals in my home, so your dog will get my full attention as needed. I don't have a fenced yard, but I am in a residential neighborhood with a good-sized park a block away. I am reasonably close to Seward Park and the Genesee dog park as well.
“Brooke has taken care of our dog Yakko a few times now. She is super responsive, sends pictures regularly and Yakko always comes back happy (and tired!). We are happy we found her and thankful we can trust her our dog while we are at work or out of town. ”
“Ollie always has the best time with Beau and Mellow! We feel so comfortable sending our boy to Beau's and he comes back happy, healthy and tired from playing, every time!”

“Amanda filled in last minute! Rowdy fell in love with her at the meet n greet and he was so excited when she showed up again for his walk! We feel so lucky that we found Amanda! She’s fabulous!”
“Lucas was great. He was very attentive to my concerns about situations that can trigger my dog’s reactivity and gave me detailed information about their walks. Will definitely use him again!”
“Madison is the best!! Moose really likes her I can tell from all the picture updates! Love how great she is at communicating and meeting all of moose’s puppy needs! We will continue to book with her, thanks Madison!! 🐾”
“Matt is a dog whisperer! He did a fantastic job walking our 75-pound pit mix, Rosie, for an hour each morning for 8 days. He was very punctual, great at dealing with Rosie’s habit of scrounging for food and her dog reactivity. He also took the sweetest photos for Rosie’s walk report cards. We will absolutely book Matt again!!”
“Law took great care of Nacho on his walk. Sending photos throughout and was extremely communicative. Would definitely feel confident to have Law take Nacho on walks again :)”
“Tim has been really great with my dogs. They get so excited to see him when he arrives. Its been a great help as I recover from an injury to know they are in good hands with their afternoon walk. He has also been very flexible with the schedule and adjusted a walk time as my schedule changed. My dogs are 90 and 70 lbs and he has had no issues with them.”
“My pups had a better time with Karen than they do with our family, for SURE! She is great and communicating, letting us know what the walk was like, sending pictures. 100% would book again, and highly HIGHLY recommend. Also, very covid aware and safe!”
“Skippy has been great with my 90lb hound, Sydney! He walks her once a week and is consistent and reliable. I know she’s safe and happy when she’s out walking with Skippy!”
“I needed a last minute walker and Christina responded instantly! We met for a quick meet and greet and she was very thoughtful and asked questions to get to know Nova and her routine. Christina sent some very cute pictures from their walk and even practiced some training calls with Nova and made sure to feed her dinner before leaving. She was amazing and I would 1000% book her again!! Thank you, Christina!”
“Kirsten is the best - responsive, prompt, careful with all instructions, and true animal lover. we’ve boarded with her, done doggy day care, and used her as a walker. She is excellent with every service and we’d recommend her wholeheartedly!”
“Billy is attentive to our dog’s natural dispositions and ensures he has such a great time on his walks. He is the best option for short walks, check ins or longer walks and will make sure your dog has a great break from the norm. Highly recommend!”
“Jenae was great with my dogs. Both my 15 year old senior dog and 8 month old puppy were well cared for and had fun with Jenae while I was at work. I’d recommend booking with Jenae for your pet care needs. Thank you for your help! 🙂”
“Pam was a dream for our first Rover experience. I'd just adopted Coco and was a little nervous leaving her with someone new, but Pam put me completely at ease. The photos she sent were ridiculously cute, and you could just tell Coco was having the best time, I think she was smiling in one of the pics. Would 100% recommend her to anyone, especially if you've got a nervous new pup.”
“Kristin gave Ember some great exercise and quality time and even kindly brought in a package for us. Ember clearly took to her, and we will definitely look for Kristin to be available again!”
About: Unavailable in the Seattle area until mid-January. I have been caring for large dogs as part of my family since I was a child. Now, I have multiple clients for whom I provide dog-sitting services. I have experience looking after a wide range of dogs, from big to small and of all ages. When I was younger, I volunteered at Family Dog Rescue in San Francisco. More recently, I spent some time at Emerald City Pet Rescue, where I cared for small dogs and cats. Currently, I am responsible for the week-long care of a senior Labrador (for the past 4 years), and I help another household with hunting dog mixed breeds. I am also capable of handling both low-energy and high-energy dogs. I am currently on winter break until late January and have high availability. I am also willing to take care of people's pets when I am back home for other breaks and near my university (Amherst, MA) I always make sure to give pets their own time to adjust to me and their environment. I always want them to feel comfortable and safe, especially in their own home. If any kinds of issues come up, I will always make sure to notify the owner.
“Katie was amazing! Always let me know if she was running a few min late. My dogs loved her, and she handled them well (they're strong pullers). Very positive attitude, even when the rain was just bucketing down! Would definitely recommend, and will use her again next time I need a dog walker :-)”
About: Hello! I’m an outdoor educator and guide. While I don’t have any pets currently due to work constraints, have been dog sitting, boarding, and walking on my off-time for Wag!, friends and family for over 8 years now. I know the drill. From walks to play to medications, I can do it just tell me if your fur baby has any special likes/dislikes and what works best for them. I lost my cat to congestive heart failure this year 😭 so watching pets for others has been filling the holes in my heart. I’d be honored if I could watch your pets while you’re busy/gone. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me, I'm super friendly and love to spend time with all the fur babies, from walks or just playing around with all types of furry friends. Pet care fills in the gabs in my life. Since my cat passed away from congestive heart failure. Few months ago, pet care has been filling the holes in my heart from his passing. The fur babies need so much love, care and attention. I am really just here to give them love, care and play. Safety is a top priority! I ensure they always stay within the fenced areas, have on their collars, keep other dogs away if they are unfriendly, and ensure the lease is properly secured before opening the door.

Macaley is very attentive to detail ,pleasant to talk to, and immediately put my dogs at ease at the meet and greet. Macaley also has a very calming space, a back yard and big park across the street which I know my dogs love. Macaley will definitely be preferred option for taking care of my dogs moving forward!!”
“We left our almost 2 year old Aussalier , Mylo, for 4 nights with Purbasha, as we were "boat camping". Normally Mylo comes along, but we wanted to give this a try. It turned out to be a very fortuitous decision. Purbasha sent us photos to let us know how Mylo was "coping". OMG, he was in heaven! Lots of attention, walks, and a good natured dog to hang out with, (and do all that neurotic doggy stuff that dogs do). When we picked up Mylo he was so happy. Obviously well looked after. I'm sure he's wondering when his next visit to " Purbasha Resort" is. We predict soon, and regularly. We give it: 5 paws up.”
“Mike was great at communicating leading up to and during the boarding. Our dog Frankie warmed up to Mike and his wife Sherri very quickly. She got lots of exercise and was in such a happy mood when we picked her up. We were very happy to meet Mike and will be excited to have Frankie visit again.”
“Jackson & Audrey were great hosts! Their 2 pups and mine got along swimmingly, they were responsive and made Boone feel at home. We’d happily have them pup sit again!”
“Daria was wonderful with our dog while we were away for holiday travel. She was so sweet to work with us through schedule changes and delayed flight. We highly recommend Daria!”
