“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.”
“Rachael was great. She provided me regular updates on my pup while he stayed with her, which I very much appreciated. She also responded to any and all of my communications quickly and was very flexible. Would definitely recommend.”
“Brenda was a wonderful sitter for Penny! She was responsive, detail orientated, sent the best pictures, and I could tell she really cared about Pennys wellbeing! Would highly recommend.”
“My 2 year old Springer Spaniel Boxer mix, Edie, had a wonderful time with Jana and her family! When I normally leave Edie at her doggy daycare to travel, she barely eats and seems anxious when I come to pick her up. Not the case this time! Edie ate all the food I had packed for her along with all the treats! She loved running around and puppy style wrestling with Hazel! Jana gave me updates twice a day with pictures and videos of the ladies playing. I truly do believe that Edie had a dog vacay with Hazel and Jana!”
“We gotta say, we’ve had rover sitters before (some good, some not so good) but Gregg by far has exceeded all of our expectations. We asked him beforehand if he was okay with one of our reactive and pulley dogs, and he said he was. We set up a meet and greet before booking and both our dogs took to Gregg immediately. He just had such a kind, warm demeanor to him, and although we had other meet and greets scheduled throughout the week, no one even came close to Gregg. The booking itself was exactly what we thought it would be — amazing. Gregg was very communicative, with constant updates/photos/videos throughout the day, was very attentive towards both of our dogs needs, kept them engaged throughout their stay, followed all instructions on feeding/walking times, and even kept a close eye on one of our dogs paw chewing. When we came to pick them up, it was very clear they had a blast with Gregg, and even bonded with him as well!!! Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and because of that, we are just so grateful to have found him!!! He is going to be our go-to sitter going forward, and we know our dogs can’t wait for their next adventure with Gregg!!!”
“Kevin and his partner were fantastic! They took excellent care of Edgar while I was gone, and pampered him to boot! Edgar was very sad to leave Kevin's side, and he had to be carried out.”
“Maria did an amazing job caring for our dog Comet. She is an exceptionally caring and invested dog mama, which is clear based on the way she cares for her two dogs, as well as her updates about Comet. He seemed to be greatly enjoying his vacation there- from walks on the beach to playing and snuggling with her dog pack. I would highly recommend Maria as a sitter and will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”
“Pixel absolutely adores his visits with Melissa and Allan. They provide great, regular updates and treat him like one of the family. Thanks for another fantastic stay!”
“They were so great with our dog Max. He seemed to have a great time. They sent lots of pics and kept in touch. Would love to use them again next time we are in Seattle.”
“I am so happy we found Jennifer! McLovin is so excited every time we go to her house. She treats McLovin and all of the dogs she cares for like her own, and does a great job of introducing the dogs to one another. She provides great socialization and play experiences for my senior dog. I can’t recommend her enough”
About: From energetic puppies requiring constant supervision and socialization to senior dogs needing gentle, specialized care, I have successfully owned and cared for dogs at every stage of life. My comprehensive approach includes maintaining feeding schedules, administering medications as needed and providing appropriate exercise based on age and ability. Of course companionship and attention that keeps dogs happy and stress-free is the main goal. Whether your furry friend is a playful young pup who needs active engagement and training reinforcement, an adult dog requiring reliable routine maintenance, or an elderly companion needing extra patience and comfort, I adapt my care style to meet their specific needs. I'm a stay-at-home dad, available throughout the day to give your furry friend(s) attention & routine walks to provide the personalized attention they need to feel happy and comfortable. Our home features a fully fenced yard, and we can easily adapt our living space to suit your dog's specific needs. Senior dogs who struggle with stairs can enjoy our spacious main floor area, with direct outdoor access via just a few easy steps. Puppies still working on house training can stay in our dedicated tiled room, which can be safely sectioned off, while nervous or skittish dogs can have their own quiet, comfortable space to feel secure.
“Matt is the best!!!! I hate leaving my puppy but Matts 16 pics a day made it WAY easier. :) Loved all the play and stimulation that Bernie got from the other dogs too. Will def book Matt again. Thank youuuu.”
“We absolutely cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Lorrie and Andrew. They are responsible, proactive, and thoughtful. Throughout the weekend we got the sweetest updates about Fran and her adventures with Maisy (who is the sweetest pup and such a great buddy to our dog!) We have no doubt that our dog had the best visit ever!!! When our flight was suddenly cancelled, Lorrie and Andrew didn’t hesitate to help us make sure that our dog was in great hands while we scrambled to get back home. We are forever so grateful for them, and really looking forward to working with them again!”
“My puppy, Copper, always has some much fun with Kimiko! She does a wonderful job of keeping me posted on how he's doing and sending me pics. In all of the pics he looks so happy to play with the other dogs. I'll definitely be using Kimiko again!”
“Jessica and family are amazing hosts! They took care of our pup like she was one of thier own. Super flexible and communicative. Would ABSOLUTELY book again. Can’t recommend enough!”
“Richard and his partner have watched Patrick for us several times now and we continue to go back! We get frequent updates and photos and Patrick is always well cared for.”
“Maria was an excellent sitter for our pup! She was extremely communicative and responsive to all the quirky needs our dog has. It’s clear Maria has a great sense of different dog personalities and knows how to make sure they get everything they need. She sent photos of the beautiful walks they took and snuggles the had while we were out of town which was nice to see. Will definitely work with her again!”
“Mimi took phenomenal care of my very old and fairly awkward pup. My dog takes a very long time to warm up to anyone, and within a day or two of her stay with Mimi she was snuggling right in and seemingly very happy. Mimi shared regular updates and was very attentive to my dog — even arranging for a nail trim and picking up a prescription that we unexpectedly ran out of. I would recommend Mimi to anyone, especially folks with dogs who may need some extra TLC. Thank you, Mimi!”
“We really appreciate how well cared for Kota was during his stay with Jennie! She is highly communicative and knowledgeable about dogs and their needs. I felt very comfortable leaving Kota in her care and would book again!”

“Melissa is our favorite cat sitter — she is able to deliver on our senior cat’s medication needs and still gives quality time to our kitty who really needs it when we’re away and will only be friendly with trusted people. Great reports and photos as well. We would be so happy to have Melissa back.”
“Unfortunately Whitley got confused with the time that I had scheduled, and I had to contact Rover support to get a hold of her and she arrived three hours late.. aside from that she did everything I asked.”
“Matt is great! We appreciate his patience and calm demeanor. Our dogs really like him and we trust that he treats them the same way we do! We will continue to book with Matt.”
“Lucas was an amazing sitter! He was easy to communicate with, friendly, and made an effort to come meet our kitty so that we would feel comfortable and so would she while we were gone. He gave great updates and pictures at every check-in that gave me so much piece of mind and helped with missing my girl! We will definitely continue utilizing Lucas’s services whenever we are out of town and feel 1000% comfortable leaving our kitten in his care.”
“Morgan, Slow moving here. I have done quite a number on my hip as I am not able to walk yet.Thanks for keeping in touch. I miss my kids!. Please keep me informed. I have friends from my church who are helping out.”
“Chelsey was an awesome cat sitter! I had my cat, Moosh, board for the first time and was pretty nervous because he’s literally my best friend/family. Chelsey ensured Moosh was in good health by updating me regarding his behaviors and if he’s been eating, drinking water, and using the litter box. She sent me pictures to show this as well. Moosh had a large space and plenty of cat things to explore and play with like a cat tree, window, toys etc. I had a good experience and would recommend Chelsey for boarding cats and cat sitting☺️”
“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!”
“Nancy is terrific. She is wonderful with our dogs (they love her). She is reliable and provides us with peace of mind knowing our pups are on good hands.”
“Look no further for the best care for the best price! Zenia took amazing care of my little guy, Indigo. Very caring, trustworthy, and friendly! Highly recommend! Thanks Zenia, Indigo says hi!”
“Melissa took wonderful care of our cat while we were gone for a week. She provided lots of pictures and details about how our guy was doing with each visit, and he really bonded with her. We definitely recommend Melissa and will use her again.”
“We love Allie and so does our kitty Lolly!! She always is so thorough and treats our cat like she’s her own. Allie is our main go to for all our out of town trips.”
“Nicole was great with my cats, even my shy one! She was prompt and reliable every day, and watered my plants as requested. My kitties received lots of attention while I was away.”
“Kevin is a wonderful sitter!! He notices small details if anything seems new or different for either of my cats, and is gracious about managing any messes they might leave behind. They are super comfortable with him, and I always feel good about leaving them in his care.”
“Christina was amazing! She took care of my energetic kitten while I was away and gave me so much peace of mind. I was so worried because he's very social, but she took such great care of him. Even helped to take care of my place while I was out if she noticed something wasn't right! Would absolutely rebook :)”
“Madison is awesome, did a drop in visit with my older cat who as health issues. Madison didn't have any problem giving him his meds. She hung out for a bit and got him playing, which he generally doesn't unless he knows them. I will be using Madison again!”
“Yeji is now at the top of our short list of sitters. She took meticulous care notes, and followed all instructions perfectly. Would definitely re-hire. Thanks for everything, Yeji! Happy Holidays!”

“Rachael is the absolute best! Quick to respond and keep me updated on my doggo with pics. It’s my first time using Rover and she made the experience a great one. She came in as a lifesaver when i needed a super last min sitter. She took care of my Luna like it was her own. Super recommend ❤️”

“Kim was absolutely wonderful! Pickles immediately wagged his tail when he saw her for the first time and did not hesitate to go inside for his first day. Pickles has an insane amount of puppy energy, and Kim was incredibly patient with him. He looked so happy at pickup. Kim sent me pictures of Pickles and his new friends. Looks like he had a blast with the other pups. We will be back! We have already rebooked :)”
“Amazing! Very responsive and communicative - Lorrie messaged me photos, videos, and kept in contact throughout the day to let me know Birdie was safe and having fun. I highly recommend 😊”
“Rachel is kind, patient, and flexible. Evie has had such a wonderful time playing at her house with Jane. She came home tired and happy and I was so happy to have some pet help for a couple of weeks. Thank you, Rachel and Jane!”
About: Dedicated dog lover - whether your furry companion is a playful youngster or a distinguished senior, they'll receive my full care and attention during their stay. Currently, we have no dogs, so your pup will receive plenty of one-on-one time. Our home provides a warm, comfortable environment where your dog can relax and feel safe while you're away. All guests must be potty trained. I look forward to meeting your canine companion and making their stay a tail-wagging experience they'll love! I work part-time from home, and will be available for dog walks, belly rubs and backyard excursions throughout the day. My flexible schedule ensures your pup will get plenty of exercise, affection, and outdoor time while in my care. I have a fenced yard, love taking walks with dogs - whether that's one longer walk or multiple shorter walks, whatever it is they need.
About: We have experience with dogs of various sizes, personalities, and breeds. We own dogs and also care for other people’s dogs. We will provide your dogs with the same love and attention that we give to our own. We can offer a walking service around the neighborhood or take them to a nearby dog park. We are a family of four (2 humans, 2 dogs), so your dog will never feel lonely. Our dogs are medium-sized, friendly, and love playing with other dogs. Our apartment building features a pet relief area and a dog spa, enabling us to offer bathing services if needed. Additionally, I speak Russian. Please let me know if you have a language preference for communication with both you and your dog. We are available for daycare daily and for boarding on weekends. We are happy to host your dog from after 5pm on Friday until Sunday night or Monday at 8am. We also provide a pick-up and drop-off service for an additional $50 (round trip).

About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, including raising three of my own from puppyhood. I'm comfortable with training needs, exercising pets, administering medication, and the special needs of puppies and seniors. I have extremely high standards for the people I choose to care for my pets, and I hold myself to those standards when caring for others. Leaving your pets doesn't have to be worrisome or stressful when you know they are receiving quality care under a watchful eye. I provide safety and affection for all animals and would be honored to help care for your pets when you have to be away. I am currently going back to school as an online student and have an extremely flexible schedule. I'm available for drop ins, walks, and boarding in my home seven days a week. Drop ins and walks can occur between 6AM- 8PM. When I do drops in and walks at your home, your pet is with me and under my watch the entire time. I am happy to follow any rules you provide. For boarding in my home, I have a fully fenced back yard with a designated dog potty area. Even though the yard is fenced, I supervise all outside breaks to ensure your pet's safety and security. I do have two dogs of my own, both females, and currently only board female dogs. One of my dogs is a 15lb rat terrier mix, and the other is a 70lb lab mix. Both are well socialized with animals and people, and are accustomed to other dogs being in our home. I constantly monitor dog energy levels and body language to ensure breaks are taken when needed and that your pets don't experience overstimulation.
About: I have had pets my entire life and truly love them. Dogs absolutely love me and I feel the same towards them. I love Cats because they have their own special language, even though I am new to this professionally I will take care of your pet as if they were my own. I am retired and home all day to take care of them. You can trust your pet in my care. I am retired and home every day, to take care of your pets needs. Lots of love and attention here. You can trust me. ! I have a Fenced Yard , and an older pug a poo who is very friendly and loves all cats and dogs..very easy going! Thank you for putting your trust in me.
“Morgan was such a lifesaver and gave our doggie excellent care and attention! We are so grateful she worked with us on his individual needs. He really enjoyed going to her house to visit and take walks!”
About: Hi, I'm Thuy ("Twee" or Nikki). Former social worker and teacher, now a stay at home mom working part time on my art program for neurodiverse children. Animals are my other love! I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was a child, but more so recently after leaving my career. As a stay at home mom, I have the extra time and attention to care for your pet. And I will love them as they are a part of my family! Since we don't have pets, Rover has been the next best thing to happen for us. I am at home full time 7 days a week. If I'm not doing home duties, I am spending time with my kids outside. I have two boys ages 5 and 7 who I homeschool. They are sweet boys and love animals as well. We'd love to have a companion to join us on our walks and small adventures (if that's their thing). Otherwise, staying in is so nice too - we love doing art, making food, and having company at our cozy home ❤️ We have AC for the hot summers for added comfort. I have most experience with small and medium dogs that require gentle care, administering medication, and providing care for their special needs. I am at home full time 7 days a week. My husband is a small business owner/chiropractor with very flexible schedule so if I need to run errands, he takes over. Someone is always home so your pet will never feel alone. Providing safety is essential in building trust and a good relationship. Providing the environment for rest and play is secondary but equally as important. I strive to make every pet comfortable in our home, respect boundaries, and cater to their specific needs.
About: Going to give them all the love and care ❤️ like I do for my own pup, I have a frenchie as well who gets along with other dogs so there is a play buddy. Can handle 2 dogs,and they are welcome to be couch potatoes with my dog.😊 Due to us staying in an apartment I cannot accept big dogs at the moment. In my daily routine as a Rover sitter with a hybrid work schedule, I prioritize the well-being of the pets under my care at all times. Mornings typically involve feeding, walks, and playtime to ensure the pets start their day on a positive note. During my hybrid work hours, I make arrangements to guarantee the pets' needs are met, whether it's through midday check-ins, the presence of a trusted individual, or independence if they're comfortable being alone. Post work, I dedicate quality time for additional walks, feeding, and companionship. On days when I work from home, I seamlessly integrate pet care into my work schedule, providing them the attention they deserve throughout the day. Weekends are dedicated to extended and leisurely activities with the pets, ensuring they receive ample love and care. I am committed to maintaining a flexible schedule, accommodating last-minute bookings, and addressing any specific requirements or considerations for the well-being of the pets in my care. I live in an apartment so it's very safe. The area we live in is also extremely safe and makes for very pleasant walks. 😊 I have left our dog in daycares before only for him to come back with one problem or the other, so I understand the concern pet parents can have. I will love your pup as my own.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - West Seattle
Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Matt is an exceptionally awesome dog walker. My energetic Airedale terrier loves him and I REALLY appreciate the ground he covers with her outdoors in a short period of time!!! With Matt I know she is actually getting a lively energetic vigorous outing (as opposed to an amble and sniff) which makes all the difference when I'm at work. Photos of her are panting/smiling/happy outdoors. If you have a smart/hunting/working dog or a high-exercise needs dog, Matt is who you want. Seriously. Also he gave my pup extra TLC/company when she was in surgery recovery and he didn't even know us then. Such a kind person.”
“I just loved meeting Morgan when she came for meet and greet with my two puppies. She had a great attitude, the dogs immediately gravitated to her, and I could tell they would have loving and safe care. Everything went well on their walkabout, and I look forward to booking her again. Morgan, you’re awesome!”
“Lucas is so good with my pups. One is 12 and one is almost 3 so it’s quite a difference in walking types. They get so excited when he shows up . He always goes above and beyond , culling water bowls, cleanup if needed- He’s definitely a great asset to our community.”
“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!”
“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 :-)”
“We recently started working with Gillian for weekly walks for our senior pup, and are so happy that we connected with them! Our experience so far has been wonderful. Gillian is thoughtful, responsive, and given their experience as a vet tech we are confident in their ability to take care when spending time with our dog, who is arthritic and has some medical issues. Gillian communicates well, and when we come home after work our dog is chipper and relaxed and we know he had a good day.”
“Jessica took great care of Bailey! He had a fun walk in the snow. She was kind enough to clean him off after being him back inside. Would love to book with her again in the future!”
About: All my life my family has had dogs, and taking care of them has brought me such joy. I love being able to take walks and play outside with a canine companion. I’m very familiar with taking care of both the large dogs I grew up with and the smaller dogs I’ve previously taken care of. I’m home for the summer from college and planing to take care of pets while I’m back. My schedule is incredibly open while I’m in Seattle. I’m available to take walks or yard play time with your dog as needed and am able to stay with your pets through the night or drop by depending on schedules and needs. I can provide both company or playtime inside and exercise outside. Whatever the dog needs whether it's to be able to go in and out from the yard freely or walks I can be there to provide.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and quail. I have a multitude of experience taking care of large/extra log dogs, pitties, frenchies, and senior dogs. Monday through Friday, I’m available after 3:00 pm, for drop ins and walks. I’ve available 7 days a week for boarding or in-house sitting. Please contact me for more information. The situation really depends on the pet. I usually leave the dogs loose in the house, unless the owner prefers that the dog be crated, I think the dog would get injured, etc. Currently, I am pet free. I can explain more about that when we meet.
“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!”
“Anastasiya was great with Nacho during a last minute switch to my schedule! She was flexible and came at the time asked for. Really appreciate her taking out my little guy for a walk. Will be using her next time!”
“Nina was great with my sweet lady while I was on vacation. She did a great job meeting all of my expectations for my senior pooch. I returned to a happy smiley face and wagging backside. I'd definitely rebook. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’ve been walking dogs for over 10 years just for fun, and now I’m offering my services. I’m reliable, friendly, and know all the best parks and walks in the West Seattle area. Your pup will be safe, happy, and well-exercised! I will also have more days available in February, since I’ll be going remote so stay tuned! In the meantime I do have evening check ins available through it the week just send me a message asking my availability :) To ensure your dog receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they need, let’s structure their daily routine with me :) during each visit we can have a nice walk that serve as both physical exercise and mental stimulation, helping to keep your dog happy and healthy. In addition to walks, I set aside time to relax outdoors together, especially when the weather is nice. Whether it’s lounging in the sunshine, playing in the yard, or just sitting on the porch, these calm moments help me bond and allow your dog to enjoy fresh air and natural surroundings. Caring for pets—whether in my own home or a client’s—is all about creating a safe, loving, and consistent environment. My approach varies slightly depending on the service, but my commitment to the pets’ well-being stays the same. In My Home: When pets stay with me, I treat them like part of the family. I maintain their usual feeding schedules, offer plenty of playtime, and provide a cozy, clean space for them to relax. Daily walks, outdoor time, and lots of affection are always part of the routine. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level, and I’m always happy to send updates and photos to the pet parents. In Clients’ Homes: When caring for pets in your own environment, I make sure to follow all instructions closely—from feeding and medication to preferred walk routes and routines. I aim to keep everything as familiar as possible to reduce stress and keep pets feeling secure. I also take time to tidy up after each visit, give them affection and interaction, and provide updates so clients know their pets are in good hands. Whether it’s in my home or yours, I focus on building trust with each pet, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for.
About: I have cared for several cats and dogs from kittens and puppies to seniors. I attended obedience training years ago with our dog and learned many skills. I am retired and have a lot of time to devote towards your pets, be it on walks, potty breaks or playing with toys in the house. I really enjoy dogs & cats as they are great company. Our 2 cats are indoor only and get plenty of attention through play daily. Play is an important part in owning a pet as is attention. Our pets are part of our family. I will make sure to secure your home and keep your pets safe.

“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.”
“My 2 year old Springer Spaniel Boxer mix, Edie, had a wonderful time with Jana and her family! When I normally leave Edie at her doggy daycare to travel, she barely eats and seems anxious when I come to pick her up. Not the case this time! Edie ate all the food I had packed for her along with all the treats! She loved running around and puppy style wrestling with Hazel! Jana gave me updates twice a day with pictures and videos of the ladies playing. I truly do believe that Edie had a dog vacay with Hazel and Jana!”
“We gotta say, we’ve had rover sitters before (some good, some not so good) but Gregg by far has exceeded all of our expectations. We asked him beforehand if he was okay with one of our reactive and pulley dogs, and he said he was. We set up a meet and greet before booking and both our dogs took to Gregg immediately. He just had such a kind, warm demeanor to him, and although we had other meet and greets scheduled throughout the week, no one even came close to Gregg. The booking itself was exactly what we thought it would be — amazing. Gregg was very communicative, with constant updates/photos/videos throughout the day, was very attentive towards both of our dogs needs, kept them engaged throughout their stay, followed all instructions on feeding/walking times, and even kept a close eye on one of our dogs paw chewing. When we came to pick them up, it was very clear they had a blast with Gregg, and even bonded with him as well!!! Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and because of that, we are just so grateful to have found him!!! He is going to be our go-to sitter going forward, and we know our dogs can’t wait for their next adventure with Gregg!!!”
“They were so great with our dog Max. He seemed to have a great time. They sent lots of pics and kept in touch. Would love to use them again next time we are in Seattle.”
About: From energetic puppies requiring constant supervision and socialization to senior dogs needing gentle, specialized care, I have successfully owned and cared for dogs at every stage of life. My comprehensive approach includes maintaining feeding schedules, administering medications as needed and providing appropriate exercise based on age and ability. Of course companionship and attention that keeps dogs happy and stress-free is the main goal. Whether your furry friend is a playful young pup who needs active engagement and training reinforcement, an adult dog requiring reliable routine maintenance, or an elderly companion needing extra patience and comfort, I adapt my care style to meet their specific needs. I'm a stay-at-home dad, available throughout the day to give your furry friend(s) attention & routine walks to provide the personalized attention they need to feel happy and comfortable. Our home features a fully fenced yard, and we can easily adapt our living space to suit your dog's specific needs. Senior dogs who struggle with stairs can enjoy our spacious main floor area, with direct outdoor access via just a few easy steps. Puppies still working on house training can stay in our dedicated tiled room, which can be safely sectioned off, while nervous or skittish dogs can have their own quiet, comfortable space to feel secure.
“Matt is the best!!!! I hate leaving my puppy but Matts 16 pics a day made it WAY easier. :) Loved all the play and stimulation that Bernie got from the other dogs too. Will def book Matt again. Thank youuuu.”
“We absolutely cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Lorrie and Andrew. They are responsible, proactive, and thoughtful. Throughout the weekend we got the sweetest updates about Fran and her adventures with Maisy (who is the sweetest pup and such a great buddy to our dog!) We have no doubt that our dog had the best visit ever!!! When our flight was suddenly cancelled, Lorrie and Andrew didn’t hesitate to help us make sure that our dog was in great hands while we scrambled to get back home. We are forever so grateful for them, and really looking forward to working with them again!”
“We really appreciate how well cared for Kota was during his stay with Jennie! She is highly communicative and knowledgeable about dogs and their needs. I felt very comfortable leaving Kota in her care and would book again!”
“It was our first time ever boarding our dog. Kirsten and her family were spectacular! From the first time we met her and Bear (her dog) we knew we had made the perfect choice. She sent pictures and updates throughout our vacation and our dog was so happy and made lots of new friends. Leaving Bodhi with them gave us such peace of mind. We are using them again at the end of July.”
“Molly was great! We got plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day. One of our boys is slow to warm up and can be grumbly/barky with new people and she was very patient with him and both dogs seemed to have a great time!”
“Yalined welcomed my dog Hank into their home, and he had a very nice stay. He was relaxed when I picked him up and I would use Yalined again when I go on a trip.”
“Micaela agreed to watch Birdie and Violet, our two small chihuahua/terrier mix pups, for the weekend. We did a meet and greet first which was lovely and helped ensure Birdie and Violet were a good temperament and match before doing overnight boarding. Micaela is a skilled, considerate and thorough caretaker. She ensured our pups got great care and it is clear she spent time reading our Rover profile and care details (which are admittedly rather lengthy 😂). I’m glad our detailed descriptions for the dogs’ care is helpful and am so glad Micaela is such an attentive and kind sitter. She provided great updates along with photos from her time with the girls. She was even able to get our rather shy one-year-old Chihuahua to warm up to her within just a day, which is no small feat!! The pups came back from their stay very happy and with a good review! I’m so glad we met Micaela and we will absolutely look forward to working with her again in the future. Thank you, Micaela!”
“Nancy was amazing with Joey - so loving towards him! She took great care of him and even gave him a bath when he needed one. She gave me constant updates and photos of Joey. Joey loved his stay with Nancy and we would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate boarder for your pup❤ Thank you so much Nancy!! :)”
“Erin and Kevin, you were both so wonderful with Pip. Thank you!!! My dog Pip is high energy and always wants attention. Kevin tired her out on runs and on top of that sent me some beautiful pictures. I'd highly recommend Erin and Kevin to anyone looking for a loving temporary home for their furry family member.”
“Patty was incredible! She’s everything you’d want in a sitter - kind, calm energy, active, and attentive. We got frequent updates from her, and she took the time to really get to know my dog. Plus, her large grassy yard is awesome and she’ll leave the door open when it’s nice out. I felt at ease the whole time my pup was with Patty and would certainly recommend her to others!”
“This was my first time boarding my 5 year old Belgian mal mix with anyone outside my family. I was very very anxious. To keep it short- all these 5 star reviews are true! Jeremy is responsive, sends regular updates, and provides pups with all the exercise and love they could want. I am so happy to have this option and I know my pup will be over the moon to see him again!”
“Kim & Jonathan were great! She cared for Lyra like she was her own pup and the pictures she sent of Lyra were fantastic. I could tell Lyra was well taken care of and had alot of attention from Kim & Jonathan the entire time. Would definitley book with again”
“Sarah is an excellent sitter! We got daily and frequent updates on our pup and our pup got so cozy with Sarah that she felt at home and was happy to see us when we picked her up.”
“Sandie took great care of Roux! We got photos and updates each day we were away, and Sandie was really communicative with us before and throughout our booking. This was Roux’s first time staying with Sandie and we were gone for a week, so we were extra happy to hear that she felt comfy enough to eat all her meals right away and sleep near Sandie, which isn’t always the case when we travel. It was a relief to find Sandie as she clearly knows how to care for a range of dog personalities and needs, which is important for us since Roux can be shy and independent. We will absolutely book with Sandie again! Thanks for taking such great care of our pup :)”
“Pamela and her family took very good care of Evie. She went on some long walks and got a lot of attention and cuddles. Evie had a great stay and was tired and happy when she got home.”
