“Really quite terrific: caring for our dog, showing care in managing details, having her kids participate in giving affection, good situation for our older dog re stairs, and lots of pictures along the way to provide assurance. We've already booked again.”
“My first experience using Rover could not have gone any better thanks to Ali and her Family. My pups had a great time and I felt like they were in good hands. Ali kept me well updated throughout the booking and they clearly made my dogs feel at home. Would highly recommend! 🌟 🐾”
“We are extremely happy with the care our pet sitter and this wonderful family . From the moment we met them, we felt reassured, and they truly exceeded our expectations. They took such loving and thoughtful care of Prince, treating him like their own. He was not just looked after, but genuinely happy—getting plenty of exercise with runs, lots of affection, and constant attention. We especially appreciated how neat and clean they kept him and all his belongings. Their beautiful gals took wonderful care. Prince can be a bit of a fussy eater and needs some encouragement during mealtime, but they handled that with great patience and care, making sure he was well-fed and comfortable. They truly went above and beyond, taking care of him even more than we had asked. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and caring hands. We would absolutely recommend them and will definitely be going back to them again!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Our dog was so well cared for, and it truly felt like a home away from home. We loved receiving daily photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book again. Highly recommend!”
“Our babies were well attended to and were as calm & contented as the day we dropped them off. Kelly & Karen are great host parents. We look forward to having them sit for us again in the future.”
“This is my best time leaving our Charlie with a complete stranger. I personally met Mana and liked her immediately. She seemed like a kind and gentle person, soft spoken and respectful. I was a bit afraid that Charlie might have little issues with her dog Iris. To my surprise they both got along well. Thank you Mana for updating and sending pictures and videos of Charlie. I will definitely come back to you. Thank you so much for taking care of Charlie💕”
“My husky, Shadow LOVES going to Nathan’s! When we drop him off, he doesn’t even look back at us- he goes straight to Nathan’s beautiful backyard to run and play. I honestly feel like Shadow is going on his own vacation when he stays with Nathan. He is so good with Shadow, great with communication, sends lots of pictures! He’s always the first person I contact when I need someone to care for Shadow!”
“This was our first time leaving our 6-month-old Miniature Schnauzer, Shiro, for a vacation, and Jenny gave us absolute peace of mind from start to finish. Her communication is phenomenal. Throughout the weekend, she sent us tons of pictures and videos, along with incredibly thoughtful, detailed updates on his day. It was so reassuring to hear how calmly he settled into her home. Jenny strictly followed all of his specific feeding routines and kept him engaged with training, play, and lovely walks. What truly sets Jenny apart is how she goes above and beyond. It was an absolute pleasure having her care for him, and we will definitely be booking with her 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”
“Oakley absolutely loves coming to your house! He starts going crazy as soon as we turn off Bothell Way! He can’t get out of the car fast enough! Thank you both so much!”
“Colleen and her family did an awesome job taking care of Molly. She felt comfortable and happy with them. The communication was clear all the time, we definitely recommend her.”
“Sarah and Alex were amazing!! Lox was well taken care of and loved their fully fenced in yard. They sent frequent updates, I would absolutely recommend booking with them!”
“Beth is such an amazing rover. We can’t say enough great things about her. She takes such good care of our reactive dog Chicken. Chickie loves going to Beth’s and seeing her family which makes us so happy to hear. We always know Chickie is in such good hands at Beth’s and we always feel at ease knowing she’s getting so much attention and care there 🩷”
“My dog stayed with Tyler for eight days while I was on vacation. Tyler was very communicative and responded promptly to my messages. I received daily updates and pictures of my dog being walked and fed. My dog seemed content while staying with Tyler and returned home happy and well taken care of. I’d book with Tyler again in the future.”
“Lorena is absolutely amazing with dogs ! She has a calm gentle nature and I could immediately see that she loves, respects and knows how to connect with them . We felt comfortable and confident with our fur baby in her care .”
“Caitie is an excellent sitter! She took our dog on some serious hikes and sent us lots of updates and pictures throughout our trip. Our dog came home happy and tired! We will definitely book with her again.”
“Hong and Yuchen were wonderful! They sent pictures every day and their two Corgis kept our Hudson plenty engaged it seemed. Hudson had a couple of issues during his stay and they were very understanding. Definitely recommend them!”
“I cannot recommend P&J enough, truly. They went above and beyond for me and my 2 pups during the snowstorm when I had to stay at work. They took them on so many walks and park visits, and sent pictures the entire time they had them. I have never had a better experience on Rover or with ANY other petsitting service. I would never use anyone else again if they are available! My pups didn't even want to come home with me, they had so much fun! I am beyond grateful that I found them. What a relaxing experience- I felt so secure and comfortable knowing the pups were in good hands. Thank you SO MUCH P&J!”
“Chris once again did a fantastic job watching over Teddy, he sent many videos and pictures that showed how happy Teddy was staying with Chris. I feel comforted knowing Teddy is in great hands, will always come back to Chris whenever possible.”
“Luisa was very communicative and flexible with drop off and pick up times! provided us with updates as well! Blaze seems like he got a lot of attention and was cared for!! would use her again! thanks!”

“Merddyn was always attentive and prompt. Whenever she had questions or an issue, she quickly communicated and ensured proper cat-sitting. She kept our home very clean and beautiful and my two cats were healthy and happy. I'll definitely rebook her. Thank you, Merddyn!”
“Shelly took care of my two indoor cats really well when I was out of town for three weeks. She also spent time companying cats and taking photos. Definitely I will rebook her service in future. Thank you! ^^”
About: I have had cats in my life since before I could speak. I’ve cared for both indoor and indoor-outdoor cats, cats with some medical needs, and kittens and seniors, and I am well-versed in all aspects of cat care. I have a wonderful cat of my own!
“Kendra was great! We highly recommend. Our cat was very well taken care of for the week we were out of town. We will definitely keep Kendra in mind for our future cat-sitting needs.”
“Deyaneira is an attentive and caring pet and home sitter! She was communicative, detailed and it was clear our home and cat were very well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Deyaneira!”
“Kiki has watched my cats multiple times. My senior kitty can be a grouch but she is so patient and kind with him! She is reliable and caring. Great communication. Highly recommend!”
“We’d recently moved neighborhoods and needed a reliable new sitter, and Olivia came highly recommended. Our 14-year-old calico doesn’t like most people, but immediately warmed up to Olivia during our meet-and-greet. During the drop-ins, Olivia was punctual, followed our specific directions, and gave detailed report cards. Would happily recommend Olivia to others and am looking forward to booking again soon!”
“As always, Jeanne communicates extremely well and keeps me informed while I'm away. I appreciate her updates and the photos she includes. I know my boys are being well cared for.”
About: I have administered many different kinds of medications to many cats over the years- I have even helped a vet remove and replace staples for a cat I was cat sitting! Cats are so fascinating to me and I love getting to know each one the way they want to be known. I look forward to meeting your cat, spending time with them, and taking care of them in the way that comfortable for them!
About: My pets aren’t just animals, they’re my babies. I consider myself a pet parent rather than simply a pet owner, and that’s exactly how I’ll care for yours. I know how hard it can be to trust someone with a member of your family, so I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved until you’re home again. Pet care is already a part of my everyday life. I care for my two dogs and cat daily, so adding your pet to my routine feels natural. I work part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I know every pet is different, so I’ll follow your care instructions exactly to help maintain their routine and reduce stress. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. As a pet parent, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else. I don’t consider my pets “just pets”—they’re my babies, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, patience, and respect. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Also, I want to keep this option available. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly. My dogs are friendly and well-socialized, and I always supervise introductions to make sure everyone is comfortable. If your pet needs their own space, I’m happy to separate pets or crate them if that’s part of their normal routine.
“Nathan was extremely helpful watching my dog, taking him on walks, and spending time with him. Very trustworthy, very kind, follows directions well and keeps you informed which meant a lot to me. He was always punctual and very understanding of my concerns. I will definitely be booking him again!”
“I can’t recommend Abby highly enough! She took care of my cat in the past, and she was incredibly caring, responsible, and trustworthy and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care. My older cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes, and I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to travel again because of his medical needs. He requires medication, so leaving him behind was a huge source of anxiety for me. He is also very shy and tends to hide from people, so I was especially worried about how he would react to someone else caring for him. Abby was so patient and gentle with him, and he really made significant progress with her. She was able to gain his trust enough to handle him and give him his medication, which was a huge relief for me. Managing a diabetic cat takes extra care and attention and Abby handled everything so well. If anything seemed off with him, she immediately notified me, stayed calm, and worked through the situation and even offered to come check on him again later in the evening to make sure he was okay. Knowing she was so attentive and willing to go the extra mile gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to actually enjoy my trip without constantly worrying. She also took wonderful care of my kitten and gave her much needed extra playtime and attention, which I really appreciated. My kitten loved Abby’s visits and it was so nice knowing both of my cats were getting the individual care and attention they needed. She sent me daily detailed and hilarious updates with pictures and videos, which I absolutely loved. The updates made me feel connected to my cats while I was away and gave me plenty of laughs along the way. Abby truly goes above and beyond, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves animals. I’m so grateful to have someone I can trust with my cats. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful, compassionate pet sitter, and I will definitely be rebooking with her again.”
“Thank you so SO much for taking such good care of the kitties while I was away and for even taking time out of your own holiday weekend to check in on them!! We're so lucky to have your help🤗”

“Theresa is a true dog person. I've got 3 different dogs and I will say, they're high maintenance! She is so gracious and understands (she grew up with border collies and labs--border collies also are high maintenance LOL!). I love that she has a force free philosophy which aligns with my R+ positive reinforcement principles. She plays with my mini Aussie and that means a lot because he can literally drive you crazy with his desire for you to throw a ball and play. Currently, we're just going for daycare, but I intend to board with her because her home environment is clean and very dog positive (totally set up for dogs). She does have young children, but they are very respectful. I even got a picture of my Papillon tolerating a few gentle pets. She typically doesn't like children, so this says a lot about Theresa's kids. I highly recommend her care.”
“I messaged Winnie last minute and she was very quick to respond and accommodating. She was very communicative and took really good care of Archie. She was very sweet with him, and Archie had a great time! I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Thanks Le for looking after Spud! I have received couple status updates during the day. I really appreciated that. And Spud even learnt a new trick from you! Hope to have you as sitter again. Very recommended”
About: I’ve lived with and cared for dogs of many breeds for over 10 years. I’ve raised my own dogs and helped care for rescues and friends’ pets. I understand dog behaviour, body language, and how to communicate with them. I’m calm, reliable, and genuinely care about animals. I work from home and am available throughout the day. I can take your dog for walks as needed and give them attention and care without long gaps. My schedule is consistent, so your dog won’t be left alone. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. My senior dog is calm and friendly with other dogs—she’s never had issues and can be good company. I always keep an eye on interactions and make sure the environment stays low-stress and safe.
“Emily and Steven were amazing!! First time using this app and leaving my dog with strangers. My dog has severe separation anxiety and Emily and Steven were able to make her feel comfortable and calm. I received updates throughout the day for both stays and will be contacting them the next time we need care for our pup. Thank you!!”
“Very responsive and was able to accommodate on short notice. Bonnie seemed to enjoy snuggling on all the soft blankies and dog beds there too! Came home happy and healthy, I got lots of photos and updates. Bonnie probably appreciated being the only dog there too haha.”
About: I truly love animals and have over 7 years of experience caring for my own pets. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Friends often trust me to take care of their pets when they travel, including feeding, cleaning, and spending quality time with them. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always adjust my care to match. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding routines, litter/cleaning, and basic health monitoring. I’m very detail-oriented and will follow your instructions carefully to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like my own. I’m currently a full-time student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. I will provide consistent attention, timely feeding, and regular check-ins. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I always keep pets in a secure and clean environment and closely follow the owner’s instructions. For dogs, I always use a leash during walks and stay attentive to surroundings. For cats, I make sure doors and windows are secure to prevent any accidents. I also pay attention to small changes in behavior or health and will keep you updated regularly with photos and messages.
“Our guy has a great time today! We were in town for a family event and needed to have him somewhere fun and safe while he couldn’t be with us. He was tuckered out at pickup. We’ll be back if needed!”

I make sure every animal I care for is treated with the same care and is excited to see me next visit. :)
“Christina is an amazing sitter. She was able to understand Dusty and her needs almost immediately, acknowledged it and made sure dusty had the space she needed to get comfortable and make friends. She provided me with regular updates through the night and ensured that I was informed of Dusty’s well-being. She was also very flexible with timing and rescheduling which I highly appreciated. We will be back once again!”

“Anika is wonderful with my boy Loki, a Mini Aussie rescue pup who is sometimes anxious, but he always lights up when they come by for his walks.

About: I have been pet sitting and dog walking for 20 years! I have experience administering medication. I absolutely love dogs and would love to meet yours and give them love! I have plenty of time to take your dog on long walks and spend time playing with them! I have a lot of availability during the work day, especially after 1:30pm, though often available all day.

About: Hi, I'm Vi! As a lifelong animal lover and pet owner (my cat, Jackson, practically runs my home!), I know that pets aren’t just animals; they’re family. I grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes, from spunky Dachshunds to energetic Boxers, so I'm very comfortable navigating different personalities, energy levels, and quirks. Leaving your pet with someone new takes trust, and my goal is to give you total peace of mind while keeping your furry friends safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether your dog needs an energetic neighborhood walk to burn off steam, or your cat needs quiet, gentle companionship and routine care while you’re out, I tailor my approach to whatever makes your pet feel most secure. What You Can Expect: Reliable Communication: You will get regular photo updates and brief notes with every walk or drop-in, so you always know your pet is safe and sound. Attention to Detail: Outside of pet sitting, I work as a photographer, which gives me a sharp eye for detail, environment, and keeping things organized during every visit. Tailored & Flexible Care: Every animal has their own personality and routine. I take time to follow your exact care instructions, stick to feeding schedules, and respect their comfort zones. Services Offered: Dog Walking: From brisk, structured walks to gentle strolls depending on your dog’s age, energy, and preference. Drop-In Visits: Feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, and dedicated attention in the comfort of their home. House Sitting: Overnight care so your pets can stick to their familiar routine in their own environment. Feel free to reach out with any questions or send a booking request. I can't wait to meet your pets! I currently have a completely open schedule, giving me total flexibility for both last-minute requests and planned bookings. Whether your pet needs an early morning walk, mid-day drop-in, or evening care, my open availability makes it easy to step in whenever you need help. Growing up with breeds ranging from Dachshunds to Boxers taught me how to handle different temperaments, leash behaviors, and energy levels safely. Outside of pet sitting, I work as a photographer, so I naturally have a sharp eye for detail and environment. I strictly follow your care instructions, keep entryways secure, and make sure your home and pets stay safe at all times.
About: I grew up with a Samoyed, parakeets, and lovebirds. I've taken care of: - a Belgian Malinois puppy. - a Chihuahua/German Pincher mix. - my friend's cat for a 3 month long period. - (three times) a household consisting of an alpha female German shepherd puppy with leash induced aggression and two cats. - a guard dog rescue mutt I workout everyday so walks and runs are a given. I pay attention to details and am consistent. I WILL use the commands YOU use for your beloved pet(s). I'm a PhD student at UW but I work from home. So my schedule is super flexible. I wake up between 7-8am and go to bed around 11pm. I workout in the morning/afternoons usually but can shift things around as needed. I can fit into your pets schedule. I will follow all your rules. I will not leave your pets alone for extended periods of time. I'm unable to keep pets at my own place right now.
About: I have a passion for any and all animals, with particular experience and expertise in dog care. I have walked and cared for a number of friend's and neighbor's dogs over the years, volunteered with newly rescued greyhounds at Greyhound Pets Inc, and worked professionally walking and playing with dogs at 3 different boarding and daycare centers. I also received a certificate in Applied Animal Behavior from the University of Washington in 2023. I am happy to walk your dog of any size, any breed, and any age, in any weather! I am currently in graduate school, pursuing a master's degree, while working one day a week, which leaves me with quite open availability Fridays through Tuesdays. Unfortunately I am unable to care for other's pets in my own home due to landlord restrictions, but I would be open to pet-sitting in your home to give your dog the most comfortable experience! The only constraint is that I have my own dog, a 10 lb chihuahua mix named Acorn, so I cannot leave her alone for extended periods of time while I'm away pet-sitting (she is friendly, but does communicate clear boundaries if large/rambunctious dogs try to crowd or squish her).
About: Hey there! I love dogs always have always will. I have had 3 dogs myself and grew up with many others. I love to train and meet new dogs and have completed a few training sessions with the Tampa Humane Society where I found my older dog Donny . First dog park trip is 9 AM everyday, Second is at 12 noon. I go to shoreview off leash, near Shoreline CC. Perfect place to interact with other dogs or go walk the many trails behind the park. Please let me know of any special requirements for your furry friend and I can 100% accommodate. Just ask and I will supply pictures, videos and updates.
“The absolute best, and she is great about emergency walks. Very trustworthy and the dogs love her. Thank you Josephine for taking care of my babies and being there on such short notice.”
About: I thought I wasn't a pet guy until becoming step dad to two loafs and we are all very happy together their mom regularly comments on how close the cats have grown to me The cats jump on my chest in the morning because they know it's safe and that I am the food guy now. I take care of their clean up and keep them company on days off One of my favorite things to do for my cats is make a blanket fort for them on the bed so they have a nice warm spot to hide
About: To my amazing clients and potential new clients! I can officially offer dog grooming as well! I earned my dog grooming certification from Masers Dog Grooming in Kenmore, Washington Graduated in April 2024 I am currently working on earning my dog training certification. I will keep you all posted on those details! Due to the new respiratory virus that’s effecting and affecting our loyal companions I will be limiting the amount of pups in my care and will be requesting current vaccination and current flea prevention prior to boarding. I apologize for the inconvenience. “Life is what happens when you’re making other plans!” - one of my favorite quotes! I am a dog lover and animal advocate. Dogs have always been a part of my life and I feel that each one has an amazing soul. I was a dogsitter, housesitter and substitute teacher before I had my daughter. I just need to make sure that any dog I dog sit is child friendly and will get along with my rescue. My previous rescue, “Shabah” passed away in 2016. Our new rescue, “Todd” has the same spirit of our previous old dog! I have a split level home (unfinished basement). Our home is a comfortable and cozy home that's dog and kid friendly. We have a large fenced in backyard. Our neighborhood is a dog friendly, kid friendly, cat friendly, chicken friendly neighborhood. All our neighbors are respectful of each other and watch out for each other. About this sitter: I’m a survivor of many things and 52 years young ( I stopped counting). I have an amazing, smart, funny and talented tween who consistently keeps me on my toes. I earned my BA in Photojournalism and Film from the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism at Arizona State University. I love to travel and before my kiddo was born, I had the opportunity to travel to many different countries. I’ve had the opportunity to attend school at the University of Wales and travel throughout GB, Spain, Ireland, Scotland, Oman and the UAE and taught briefly in Salalah, Oman. Dogs are honest, sincere and loving creatures with the right environment. I want to make sure that you know your dog will be safe and loved while staying with me and my family. Why I love dog sitting: I have loved dogs my entire life. I have always owned a dog. From our first family dog, “George” who used to pose for the camera every time I would take my camera out! He would literally pause and stay still for the camera! I’ve always had rescues and they have all been amazing mixed breed mutts! 🥰🐶 If anyone ever needed help with their dogs, whether it was dog sitting, dog walking or helping rescue a dog in need I was always there to help out. I just have a special place in my heart for dogs. Meet my pets I had a 16 year old border terrier mix, “Shabah.” She was wonderful with children and took care of her little 'sis' since the day I brought her home from the hospital. Shabah passed away in 2016 and we continue to miss her everyday. It wasn’t until Covid that I broke down and adopted another rescue, “Todd.” Todd has come a long way since the day I adopted him. He was rescued out of a home in Eastern, Washington. I have worked on training him but continue to work with him daily. I have looked into getting certified to become a dog trainer and use those skills with dog sitting. Our Home: My daughter, dog and I recently moved back to our old house in Shoreline. I am working on remodeling the inside of the house and working on the front and backyard. Since I am doing all of this on my own, it’s taken some time and a constant work in progress. Please excuse the mess during this “construction” time. Do not worry! There’s only weeds and brown grass and dirt for the dogs to play around in. The inside of our home have plenty of places for your dogs to sleep. The dogs will also let me know what other spots they like too! A couple dogs I watched recently loved snuggling up underneath our entertainment center area. I’ve since put a cozy bed in that spot for them! 💗 Our home is approximately 1800 square feet, we have an unfinished basement (I’m working on remodeling), a large kitchen, dining room,l nook, living room and t.v. room. We also have 3 small bedrooms and 1 1/2 bathrooms. The dogs are welcome anywhere they would like. I sanitize daily (dog and kid friendly sanitizers) and vacuum daily (as long as it doesn’t scare the dogs - otherwise it’s sweeping). It's important to me that my home remains a child friendly and dog friendly home. About my yard: I have a fenced in backyard. It's a durable backyard, meaning that it's o.k. that the grass gets torn up and if your dog is a digger. If you are someone who is trying to break the habit of your dog digging, just let me know. I can work on that while your dog is in my care. I will not leave the dogs unattended. With a fenced in backyard it’s easy to think they would be OK, my dog is a “Houdini,” so I make it a habit of never leaving any dogs unattended even with a fenced in backyard. My experience administering medication: Over the years I have administered shots and oral medication for my dogs and friends dogs and dogs I have dog sat for. I am available full time to dog sit and walk, your amazing pups! I do have a busy schedule with my kiddo and her after school activities. As long as you’re O.K. and the dogs are O.K. with car rides, we are all good! I won’t text and drive or take photos while driving! I have a fenced in backyard and brown grass (at the moment) for the dogs to play around in. It’s O.K. to mess up our yard since it’s a “work in progress” yard! I always monitor and supervise the dogs when they are playing in my front or backyard. My front yard is not fenced in yet, so the dogs would be on a leash at all times in the front yard. My schedule is quite chaotic and ever changing. Since I won’t leave the dogs unsupervised, they go with me. Each client I have had has been great with my busy schedule. I take the dogs with to drive my kiddo to school and take them with to pick her up. When she has after school activities - the dogs will come with me to drop her off and pick her up. I’ll take the pups on walks or small hikes or to a dog park with the owners permission. If the dogs are O.K. to be left alone for a short period of time - then I plan accordingly. I don’t like to leave dogs in kennels unless it’s absolutely necessary and becomes a safety issue. Otherwise, they are free to roam their new temporary environment. I can no longer house sit or dog sit in someone else’s home since I have a kiddo and my own rescue pup. In my home, I make sure the dogs are always safe and have a separate room for the dogs who are food aggressive during feeding time. If one dog plays too rough with the other dogs I will plan accordingly on which dogs are safest to play together. There have been times when I had to separate the play times between the dogs who played rough together, compared to the dogs who didn’t. It all worked out great. Dogs get to know each other’s play and personalities rather quickly . I make sure the dogs all have fresh water throughout the day. If it’s a dog that doesn’t monitor their own water intake, I will make sure to monitor the water intake in the evening. I need to sleep too and cannot be kept up throughout the night to let the dogs outside. I’ve had to do this for my own dog and he’s been fine. 😊🐾 Please Note - Due to the potentially fatal new respiratory virus that’s effecting and affecting our loyal companions I will need to request current vaccination records to be emailed and will have to postpone dog sitting and boarding until a vaccination is available to our loyal companions. I will reach out to Rover directly on how they will handle matters like these since this is something none of us could imagine would come up. Thank you and I appreciate you! Monday thru Friday the pups all come with to drop my kiddo off at school. After drop off I take the pups to a local park for a bit. Then back home to get my work done. The dogs all have free reign of the house. I can take them out in our backyard every couple of hours. At 2:30 on M/T/Th/F we head back out to pick my kiddo up from school. Then back home for more playtime. We have breakfast and dinner around 6 am and dinner between 4 and 5 pm - these times for breakfast and dinner are flexible. *please note* I request all dogs be treated with a flea and tick preventive prior to boarding, grooming. Our yard gets frequent visitors such as coyotes, rabbits and raccoons. All of these animals carry fleas. I treat my yard and home with Wondercide but cannot prevent fleas from getting on your dog(s). If your dogs are not on flea prevention - there are no guarantees. We will frequent dog parks and trails and fleas and ticks can live in these environments. I go by the “honor system” when people tell me their dogs are on flea prevention. One walk in the park in this area can cause and create an itchy dog. Please treat your dogs for fleas and ticks as a prevention. Thank you! This keeps my dog safe, my home safe and everyone else’s dogs safe. Please note that frontline and advantage Do Not work on the fleas in this area. The best treatment I found was Simparico Trio that kills the entire flea cycle! The flea prevention that works the best are prescriptions from a vet. Please make sure to get a flea and tick medication that kills the entire flea cycle! Some medications only kill the adults. I cannot begin to tell people how important this is. Fleas are super gross and wreck havoc on a home and animal. Thank you for keeping my home, my dog and especially your dog(s) safe! Thank you!

“My first experience using Rover could not have gone any better thanks to Ali and her Family. My pups had a great time and I felt like they were in good hands. Ali kept me well updated throughout the booking and they clearly made my dogs feel at home. Would highly recommend! 🌟 🐾”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Our dog was so well cared for, and it truly felt like a home away from home. We loved receiving daily photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book again. Highly recommend!”
“My husky, Shadow LOVES going to Nathan’s! When we drop him off, he doesn’t even look back at us- he goes straight to Nathan’s beautiful backyard to run and play. I honestly feel like Shadow is going on his own vacation when he stays with Nathan. He is so good with Shadow, great with communication, sends lots of pictures! He’s always the first person I contact when I need someone to care for Shadow!”
“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”
“Sarah and Alex were amazing!! Lox was well taken care of and loved their fully fenced in yard. They sent frequent updates, I would absolutely recommend booking with them!”
“Beth is such an amazing rover. We can’t say enough great things about her. She takes such good care of our reactive dog Chicken. Chickie loves going to Beth’s and seeing her family which makes us so happy to hear. We always know Chickie is in such good hands at Beth’s and we always feel at ease knowing she’s getting so much attention and care there 🩷”
“My dog stayed with Tyler for eight days while I was on vacation. Tyler was very communicative and responded promptly to my messages. I received daily updates and pictures of my dog being walked and fed. My dog seemed content while staying with Tyler and returned home happy and well taken care of. I’d book with Tyler again in the future.”
“Caitie is an excellent sitter! She took our dog on some serious hikes and sent us lots of updates and pictures throughout our trip. Our dog came home happy and tired! We will definitely book with her again.”
“I cannot recommend P&J enough, truly. They went above and beyond for me and my 2 pups during the snowstorm when I had to stay at work. They took them on so many walks and park visits, and sent pictures the entire time they had them. I have never had a better experience on Rover or with ANY other petsitting service. I would never use anyone else again if they are available! My pups didn't even want to come home with me, they had so much fun! I am beyond grateful that I found them. What a relaxing experience- I felt so secure and comfortable knowing the pups were in good hands. Thank you SO MUCH P&J!”
“Chris once again did a fantastic job watching over Teddy, he sent many videos and pictures that showed how happy Teddy was staying with Chris. I feel comforted knowing Teddy is in great hands, will always come back to Chris whenever possible.”
“Luisa was very communicative and flexible with drop off and pick up times! provided us with updates as well! Blaze seems like he got a lot of attention and was cared for!! would use her again! thanks!”
“Kara and Don were great! We got updates on Zoey and she clearly was happy and loved her stay with them. Kara and Don are clear dog lovers and will give your dog all the love and attention it deserves ?. I would highly recommend them and would easily use them again to sit Zoey!”
“Sarah took amazing care of our 7-month-old puppy while we traveled for a week. She took amazing care of him, and it was obvious he had a great time playing with her dogs. She kept us updated with photos of him, and she even gave him a bath before we picked him up. He has a bit of a high-maintenance coat, and she so kindly kept him nicely brushed for us as well. Our flight had a brief delay which she was super accommodating and understanding of for pickup. If there were more stars, I would give them. Highly, highly recommend Sarah. :)”
“Fantastic sitters! My Bernie had tons of playtime with similar sized dogs in a big fenced yard, lots of couch snuggles, and he slept very soundly after I picked him up. Ina sent daily videos and pictures, and they were very flexible when my return flight was delayed and Bernie’s pick-up time had to be shifted around. Highly recommend and I will be booking with them again!”
“Ai took great care of my dog Jasper while I was away for a week. Although he was a bit resistant at first, Ai got Jasper to warm up to her quickly and he got along well with her cats. She provided regular updates about how he was doing and sent me lots of pictures. Ai is also so thoughtful in wanting her guests to be comfortable that she asked for Jasper to arrive a little earlier than my booking to help him settle in before I was away and harder to reach. She was also very gracious in transferring care to my friends who watched Jasper for me for the remainder of my trip. I would 100% book with Ai again and highly recommend her to board your pets.”
“Philip was so good with our first doggy (1 yr old puppy) and his care was excellent with our second (3yr old choc lab). Steve had lovely park walks, mental stimulation and came back very happy doggie. Highly recommend!”
“I booked Wenjia very last minute for a weekend trip I had to take. She was great and treated Kona as her own dog. I got lots of photos and Kona had many adventures. This was a great experience and Kona came back exhausted from a weekend of fun.”
About: Over the years, my husband and I have shared our lives with all kinds of dogs: farm dogs, little dogs, a Great Dane in a studio apartment, and now our Mini Australian Shepherd. We have learned and refined our dog ownership skills over time, finally investing in professional training for both our dog and ourselves in 2025. That experience shaped the kind of care I offer today. I believe dogs thrive with clear structure, consistency, and calm communication. I strive to provide the kind of boarding experience I wish I could find for my own dog, where training, routines, and boundaries are respected while you're away. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my day. We have a large, fully fenced backyard, daily walks, and a very friendly Mini Australian Shepherd who enjoys canine company. Your dog won't be left alone for a typical workday. I do leave the house for school drop-offs and pick-ups, errands, or weekend activities. Dogs should be comfortable being alone for a few hours. Because I have both a young child and my own dog, I only accept dogs that: -Are friendly with children and other dogs. -Are up to date on vaccinations and flea prevention. -Can comfortably settle into a family home.
