“What I love about how Kelsey cared for our dog Jenny is the way she shows so much genuine care for her and her desire to provide the very best experience both for Jenny and for her owners. I really appreciated the level of communication - updates on how Jenny was doing / photos / consulting on a couple of Jenny’s health issues - thank you so much, Kelsey, for making this such a great experience!”
“Timber enjoyed his week with Kelsey. We appreciated the fenced yard and picture updates of Timber playing and having fun. Timber seemed calm and settled when we picked him up. We will definitely book with him again!”
“Nick and Rebecca were wonderful. Not only are they caring people for pets, they have a great open property for your dog to roam freely. We will be return customers when we're back on Orcas Island.”
“Kris and her family took great care of our Romy and Tilly. Tilly has lots of medical/health needs and she came back refreshed and well fed. Romy is a sweet boy but was having some behavioral issues and they took care of all of it and offered some suggestions for us to help!”
“Very thankful for Kimberly! She sent photos every day and I can tell my girls had a blast. Kimberly was extremely accommodating and took extra steps to make sure I was comfortable (this was my first time boarding). Highly recommend!!”
“Huxley had a great time at Andrea's. Andrea doesn't over treat which in Huxley's case very good. Daily walks morning, afternoon and evening. The pictured shoed Huxley resting and laid back. I know he was well looked after to him Andrea's home felt like home.”
“Cynthia did a great job watching Sparky. She took him the dog park nearby where Sparky and her dog played and had a great time. They also ran around and played a lot in her fenced backyard. She also sent a lot of videos of Sparky, which was nice.”
“Great, and easy to book. Communicates how ever much you want with updates. My dog seemed happy and playful, definitely had a good time. Will definitely book again when needed.”
“Lenore was amazing! Very responsive and easy to communicate with. Her dog Rook is friendly and very well mannered. She has a fenced yard and is conveniently located. Kept me up to date throughout Fozzi’s stay and I got tons of pictures/videos!!!”
“We highly recommend Lisa as a pet sitter! She took care of our dog, Mr. Beckett while we were out of town. Not only did she provide excellent care for Mr. Beckett, but she also went above and beyond to ensure he felt loved and comfortable while we were away. We enjoyed the daily texts and pictures showing us he was safe and having a great time. Our nervousness about leaving Mr. Beckett for the first time was greatly reduced after we saw how well he was doing with her. Lisa would take him and her dog Ollie on daily adventures at the local parks. He enjoyed playing with Ollie and seemed very happy there. We will gladly use Lisa’s services in the future, she is trustworthy, loving and very in tune to our dog’s needs.”
“Chelsea was very helpful on short notice. She was able to accommodate a schedule change and took excellent care of our dog, Scout. We highly recommend booking with Chelsea.”
“Airabell had a great stay! When I went to pick her up she was wagging her tail to go back in. Chelsey was accommodating and communicated very well. The picture of how she was doing didn't hurt :).”
“Tara had a wonderful stay with Maryanne and her family, including her own fur baby. She loved sharing the couch with them and I hear hogged the space in front of the fireplace (sorry about that!). I really appreciated seeing the photos of her enjoying her time there. Thank you for taking such good care of my girl!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was ten years old and love getting to know them. I will be their calm and confident leader. Safety is my top priority (with fun being close behind) I will tailor each visit to the individual pet depending on their needs and personality. I run with my dog Daisy 4-6 miles a day and would love to adventure with yours! I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! Beginning in the Fall I will be available every Wednesday & Thursday morning for walks/jogs. As of now I am available for boardings anytime. For walks and jogs I am currently available at various times throughout the week. We are diligent about keeping our doors shut for our pets safety. Our dog has a long leash she can use in order to explore our backyard whenever she wants. I am adaptable and happy to follow each owner’s specific requirements for their home and keep the pets safety as my top priority.
“Rachel and family were excellent. It's easy to see they love dogs. The house is organized around their four legged children and guests. A large fenced yard to romp in. Your greeted in a large room without furniture so that the dogs can meet and get to know one another. An excellent first use of Rover.com for us.”

“We were so lucky to find Nick and Rebecca when I had to find a last minute sitter during our visit to Orcas island. My pup Genghis took to Nick right away - and I could tell he was very well taken care of. Nothing like feeling a peace when I have to leave the little guy behind.”
“Roxanne B is fabulous with all the dogs in her care. Our Sara is shy with dogs she doesn't know. Roxanne allowed her the time to say hello to each of the dogs & Sara had a wonderful day. She came home happy & tired.”
“Beth was nothing but amazing from start to finish. We were on the island for my wife's work event and she suggested we get a sitter so my son and I could explore the island dog-free for the day. With less than 24 hours notice we found Beth, she responded immediately and confirmed quickly. She asked all of the right questions so you could tell she really cared. My 12 year old son was worried about leaving the dogs, but Beth sent us text updates and posted pics and videos to a Google folder throughout the day. She took them for multiple walks and a hike. They came home happy and tired...they definitely had their best time on the island with Beth. I can't say enough good things, she was fantastic.”
“Chelsey is amazing with my pup, Daisy :) her two senior dogs are a great match - Daisy is a younger dog, but she has some physical issues and I prefer a calm environment for her. They get along really well, too! Daisy loves her - she cuddled up with her to say "goodbye" when I picked her up, and I'd never seen that before! I am so thankful for Chelsey, and we love doggy daycare twice a week with her!”
“Virginia was great. Maggie-Roo was happily tired. 💖🐾 Virginia's communication was excellent. This was Maggie-Roo's first time playing with Virginia and everything went smoothly. Highly recommended. Thank you.”
“Nicole was a great communicator, very professional, and very, very kind! Nicole and Cody took great care of our dog O’Henry and we will definitely book with them in the future.”
“William was a joy to work with. He was very tolerant handling our ever changing scheduling beginning and ending his care of our doggie. We needed a sitter of our dog while we went out on a boat tour for several hours necessary because we were visiting from a community a few hours distant. All became very confusing when the scheduled sitter cancelled at the last moment. William calmed us and managed our concerns with grace. AND, our doggie was very pleased and happy.”
“Hazel had a blast hanging out with Jax! She came home happy, tired, and well cared for. It was clear she had a wonderful time, and we’d definitely trust Virginia with Hazel again!”
About: I believe dogs have the best souls on earth. Enjoy hiking, playing in the yard, or simply being in their space. I also enjoy training from puppy to advanced agility. I’ve trained a couple different types of dogs and a bird ranging in ages. Also able to transport locally to homes, vet, and or parks. My late sweet Pepper dog and I were Project Caine certified as a Therpy team, volunteers at island hospital, and Master Agility Champions. We look forward to meeting with other awesome dogs and their owners. I work in the travel industry, so my schedule varies. I usually know a couple weeks in advance. My spouse’s schedule varies too. Sometimes we are available 24/7 We treat Pets as Family in our home.🥰. We live on acreage close to Deception Pass. We have experience with administering 💊 medication to young and older fur babies 🐾
“Holly and her family took such great care of our dog, Dottie. I couldn't be happier with the process - from the first message to the meet & greet to the doggy day care date. Communication was clear and easy, and I felt that safety and care were well prioritized. Having that reassurance that your dog is in good hands is honestly priceless. The fact she had a great time with Archie is the cherry on top. Dottie is already passed out sleeping (on the couch - sorry!) from all the fun she had. Will definitely book again. Also thank you for all the photos during the visit! They were very comforting for this anxious dog mom.”
“As always, Angela saves the day! She messaged me back right away despite me requesting daycare with very short notice. She saved me the stress and trip of dropping them off or picking up. And she took amazing care of our babies while they were with her. She’s the best!”
About: I have spent most of my life around dogs. As an only child my siblings were two Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. As an adult I have always had at least one dog in the house and more often than not two. They are my babies, my best friends and my companions. I am currently a high school teacher which allows me to have the summer free to spend with my critters as well as yours. I am almost always available at least until August. When spending a day with me and my own fur babies your companion will have access to a backyard. Get at least one good outing/run in and have two medium sized playmates to keep them entertained. I also have the ability to crate your friend if need be.
“Monica was just wonderful. I loved all the pictures and videos she sent of Angel during her stayed. It’s obvious that Angel had a great time. Will definitely be returning. I highly recommend Monica!”
“Katrina is a gem - quick responses, and was very easy going and willing to roll with it when I (embarrassingly) forgot my dog's bag of lunch, toys, etc. the first time I brought him over. I don't think he even missed his things, given how well her place is set up for dogs. The big, fenced back yard is a dream!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and have been a pet parent throughout adulthood. I have a deep love and affection for animals, and often look after the pets of family and friends as their trusted caretaker. I call myself a "whisperer" because I feel I've always known how to 'communicate' with domesticated animals and earn their trust. I'm an adjunct instructor at WWU with enough flexibility in my schedule to be available for pet care most of the time. As I considered alternative work for myself, I thought I should consider what I love to do, and pet sitting/dog walking feels like a great fit for me. I currently have a 2 year old female rescue dog who I'm 90% sure is a puggle, and 2 beautiful male cats. Traditionally I've owned boxers, but I love both big and small dogs of all kinds, puppies to seniors, as well as cats and most other pets (perhaps not insects...!). I'm reliable, friendly, patient, and love to walk, so frequent or long dog walks suit me fine. I have a flexible schedule and am available to look after your fur babies day and/or night, including day care, drop ins, boarding and house sitting. I have a pet-friendly home with a fenced yard in a safe neighborhood with parks and trails close by. I'm home much of the time so my pets get a lot of attention and care, are fed on schedule, and I'm up to date on all vaccinations. My home is clean, cozy and safe.

I have a bird and three dogs of my own, including a Saint Bernard. I love animals and I am hoping to get to meet some new ones. Right now, I am home from college in Seattle for the summer. I am currently taking bookings for any day of the week and at any time! Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to take pets on walks/potty breaks as often as needed. I always make an effort to tidy up toys or the home in general before leaving and I am very comfortable crating/feeding/playing with dogs of any size.

“Trinity did a great job of looking after our senior blind/diabetic dog. Kept us informed on how she was doing. She had no problems with her special feeding schedule and giving her the insulin injection.”
“Finding the right caretaker for my girl Rosie - who can be very shy and nervous around new places and spaces, and experience stress while we are apart. I wanted to ensure she would be with the best caretaker, and this was particularly important as I planned to be away for an extended period over the holidays. Thankfully, I came across Heather’s reviews and was able to connect with them before boarding Rosie. This provided me with a sense of relief and assurance to know she would be in a loving home. Rosie experienced an exceptional level of care and love and grew comfortable and content under Heather’s care. From daily walks and adventures to routine brushing, and homemade broth; Rosie was such a happy girl! Her sweet, loving, and active personality got to shine including her beautiful coat! Beyond grateful I had connected with Heather - I highly recommend her services. We will certainly be repeat customers.”
“Leslie provided an excellent boarding experience for our Frenchie, Kahi. My husband and I are always nervous to leave Kahi, but this time we felt more at ease knowing she was in great hands with Leslie. Leslie welcomed Kahi into her home and was knowledgable of what Kahi needed to feel safe and comfortable. She was diligent to provide daily updates and pictures. The pictures showed that Kahi was well-adjusted to Leslie’s home and having a great time playing and bonding with Leslie’s pups. We trusted Kahi was safe with Leslie which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Jael was a great Rover find and we will definitely book her for future stays! We received regular updates and photos while we were gone. Gus got lots of attention from Jael and her family (as seen in photos). We are happy to have found a new Rover home for Gus. Thank you Jael and family!”
“Morgan is great!! She was on time to pick up our pups, sent loads of photos and updates! You for sure won’t worry about your pups with her! Thank you Morgan!!”
“Bill and Gerie are total gems. Our Toby had the best time at their place. They sent us many photos during his 3 week stay showing a very happy dog enjoying the adventures out with Bill. Their home and property offer a perfect situation for dogs and they obviously adore doing this work. Bill very kindly delivered our dog back to our house, a service above and beyond. Toby can’t wait to go back!”
“This is the second time boarding with Monica and the second five star review! I can't say enough great things about her care for my large pup, Hank always enjoys his time there, she sends lots of updates and pictures and he comes home happy and tired. Thank you Monica!”
“Cade was a fantastic Rover. He was on top of his communication, has a great property that our dog was able to enjoy, and was really flexible. We ran into a problem where our travel plans were delayed and Cade was happy to let our dog stay another night. I would highly recommend Cade to watch your dog and will be rebooking next time we need a rover.”
