“Kelsy was super friendly, responsive and kept us posted on our Tabby's time with her. Great professional set up and her care was super. Tabby returned with us happy and asking if she could stay with Kelsey again next time! Thank you Kelsey! Great Job!”
“Kelsey took wonderful care of our dog, Ruby, while we were out of town for a few days. Ruby had so much fun with Kelsey’s dogs and you could tell she instantly felt at home. Thank you so much for treating her like your own!”
“We had an amazing experience with Cynthia! She took care of Milo for two days and treated him like her own. She kept us updated, made sure he was comfortable, and gave him lots of attention and care. It was clear that Milo was happy and well cared for the entire time. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Sarah was amazing. Great communication, flexible, and treated our dogs like members of her family. We will definitely have her watch our dogs in the future and highly recommend her to others. John and Kim H.”
“Aarika was absolutely amazing!! She was flexible and communicative through our entire last-minute planning process. She sent daily progress updates and photos of our sweet boy smiling and having so much fun (and getting lots of pats, which he loves!!) We will absolutely be booking with Aarika again! :)”
“Jennifer was really kind and upfront about caring for my dogs who have some anxiety. She has such knowledge and skill she could manage them with aplomb and it allows me to feel comfortable leaving them with her.”
“Amazing! Our Clyde had such a good time! Kinda funny as when I left him, he didn't even want to say goodbye to me. Instead just followed the children into the house to play. Perfect stay!”
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.
“I have nothing but good things to say about Ratih. My cat, Noni, is the biggest critic of pet sitters, and both times now when I have returned to pick him up, he completely ignores me upon my arrival—I think he might have found a new favorite person!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, I’ve had the joy of raising and looking after pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My own dog lived past 15 years old, and supporting him through the health challenges that come with age taught me how to administer a wide range of medications and provide the patient, attentive care senior dogs need to stay comfortable and happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, quiet companionship, or a little extra support due to age or medical needs, I’m committed to making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to keep their routine steady, their tail wagging, and your mind at ease knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Now that I’m not working outside the home, I’m able to devote my days to something I genuinely love — caring for pets. My schedule is calm, flexible, and fully centered around being available when pet parents need me most. Whether it’s early‑morning visits, midday check‑ins, or keeping a steady routine for your pet while you’re away, I have the time and attention to make it happen. I’m an early riser, so morning feedings, walks, or drop‑ins fit naturally into my day. I enjoy starting the morning with purpose, and there’s nothing better than beginning the day with a happy tail wag or a content purr. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can offer consistent care, low‑stress routines, and quick communication — all things that help pets feel secure and help you feel confident while you’re away. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into a busy schedule. It’s a meaningful part of my everyday life, and I’m committed to giving your pets the same calm, reliable, loving care I give my own. I’ve learned that the little details make the biggest difference. When I’m in your home, I follow a careful routine to make sure your pets stay secure, comfortable, and stress‑free. * I keep doors and gates fully secured at all times and double‑check them before leaving. * I follow your pet’s routine exactly as you describe it, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any special instructions. * I monitor your pet’s behavior and environment closely, making sure they’re safe, calm, and not getting into anything they shouldn’t. * I keep all medications, treats, and supplies organized and give medications exactly as directed. * I maintain a clean, hazard‑free space by ensuring food, plants, and household items are out of reach. * I stay in communication with you, sending updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. * I respect your home by locking up properly, turning off lights, and keeping everything just as I found it.
“Chelsea was truly amazing! She treated our baby girl like her own. She slept with her every night and loved on her like she was her own. our girl slept all day after we brought her home. Would definitely send our baby there again!”
“I was blown away by April's positive attitude and dedication to caring for my golden retriever. She meticulously created a safe, pack-like environment where the dogs felt at home, and the areas were exceptionally clean. Even more impressive were her plans to enhance her already wonderful outdoor space. As a side note, April is a certified dog trainer. Shortly after dropping off my dog and running errands in town, I noticed her diligently and patiently leash-training my dog during a walk, as my GPS took me back past her location. April never mentioned this task on Rover or in person; she simply did it on her own time, free of charge, without boasting. Her quiet integrity and humility are extraordinarily impressive. Best Rover experience so far!”
“Rachel did an awesome job with my boys, Parker and Ranger. She had them for a week. She sent me updates and pictures everyday. Went above and beyond when they went on a food strike. We will definitely be returning customers! Thank you Rachel”

“Samantha took excellent care of Oso, he was in very good spirits when we got back, and it was clear he’d gotten lots of attention. She also brought in packages for us and was kind enough to roll our can out on garbage day and back the next. Thank you, Samantha!”
“Audrey was the best! She clearly loves animals and is very perceptive as to their needs. She’s a great communicator and kept us updated and worry-free. I’m not sure that the kitties even realized we were away.”
“Sarah did an incredible job looking after our two cats! She was very receptive to meeting us at home first to meet our pets and do a walkthrough of the house. During our trip she sent daily check-in texts which included pictures of our furballs looking happy and playful. We will absolutely use her for any future catsitting!”
“Stella and Rachel did a good job caring for my kitty. And they watered my houseplants, too! I especially appreciated their timely and informative communication. It let me focus on fun and not fret about what was happening on the home front while I was away.”
“Thank you Madeline for loving our cats while we were out. She is prompt, and responsible. We trusted Madeline and would definitely contact her next time we are out of town.”
About: I’ve started at an early age training blue heelers. I retired my service dog two years ago. She is personally trained of off leash hiking. I have two cats. One loves hiking and biking with me. The other enjoys home activities and cuddles. No matter what your fur babies enjoy I can adapt. They enjoy walks and hikes, or they enjoy a good nap with some good home play I don’t mind. I will send the cutest pics and videos if you enjoy updates. I work Monday through Friday. Six am to two pm. I can take off lunch for potty and play time. Before work we can walk/eat/potty same with after. What ever the diet, exercise, or routine is I will continue them as requested. I understand how important diet, medication and routine is for our fur babies.
“Kelsey was very responsive and texted great updates and photos during his drop-in visits for our cat and dog. He even sent me the screenshots of his walking length and route from Strava when he took our dog out for walks. I will definitely book with Kelsey again!”
About: I’ve had family cats and kittens ever since I was little. Becoming an adult I craved to care for one on my own and it taught me so much about the responsibility that comes with being the sole provider for them. My Momo had crystals in his bladder and we now have a prescription diet he has to be on. I believe having a clean litter box is important for their health and make sure to do it regularly.
“Wow! Mike and Sharon exceeded our expectations. They welcomed our cat Lucy very warmly and sent us pictures of her antics throughout her stay. I would have no reservations what-so-ever to ask Sharon and Mike to watch Lucy another time. Highly recommend them to anyone who may be looking for a temporary sitter for their pet.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I have been taking care/riding horses since I was 3, have 2 dogs (senior & adult), and I have my own leopard gecko! Animals tend to find my calm and collected demeanor comforting. I am a 2026 graduate and this summer I am working part time at Nonna Luisa’s in downtown Anacortes. I don’t start work until 4 and tend to have all of the morning to myself, so why not fill it with animals! I would create a personal pet plan with the owner to fulfill the pets needs. This could be walking, letting them out, or just keeping them company!
“She went above and beyond to help out with not only my animals but my garden too! Her communication was excellent and she was kind and genuine. So grateful I found a great sitter!”
“Sienna was beyond wonderful. She took care of my sweet elderly cat for two weeks when I had to go out of town. Before I left, she came over to the house to get to know me and my cat; while I was gone, I got updates and pictures with every visit, and I knew Cat was in the best hands possible. I didn't worry for a second with Sienna taking care of her, and that was such a huge relief. If you need someone who truly takes their time to get to know you and your pets, look no further. She is absolutely the best pet sitter I've ever had.”
About: *We do not accept bookings that give less than 48 hour notice from the start date. Sorry!* I am a professional dog trainer and breeder of Australian Shepherds. My family and I have moved all over the US and are now back in Washington! I used to run a fully operational boarding facility and board and train program in Island County and have decided to start out slow now that we're settled back in our home state. I have 20 years of experience training dogs- 15 of those years being a paid, licensed and insured professional. I take the utmost care of any animal in my charge. I treat them like family and honor all the requests made by owners to ensure their pet is treated perfectly when they are gone! I understand the love and care people have for their animals and do everything I can to show that same level of care when they are under my watch. I take videos and photos regularly to keep families updated, as well! I am a SAHM with decades of experience in the canine world. My dogs, and my clients, are my life. They are my whole routine! I am equipped to manage all varieties of dogs from the easiest house guest to dog aggressive cases or complicated medical needs. I tailor my services to each individual dog to give them the best possible care and allow their people to have some freedom and know their dog is well cared for. I make sure to chat with owners and let them know what variety of boarding I offer is most suitable for their dog. I am able to make multiple daily trips to feed, potty and play with client dogs in their homes. My times are very flexible and have often done combo stays- where your dog stays the night with me and I drive it to your home during the day and pick up again in the evening. This works well for senior dogs or puppies who need monitoring over night.
“Rebecca did a great job of taking care of our cats while we were away. We really appreciated her Rover Card updates, which always included photos. She was also flexible when we needed to adjust care dates due to travel changes.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Similk Beach
“Kelsey and her family were great with our young blue heeler, Angus. He can be an anxious guy and selective with certain people, but Kelsey put off the right energy and he quickly warmed up to her. Super grateful to have a place for him to stay where we won’t have to worry about our young son.”
“Chelsey was absolutely amazing. She regularly texted with pictures and updates and was quick to put my mind at ease when I found myself missing my little pup. I would 100% recommend Chelsey and will be booking again when I am back in the area.”
“Roxy is a great dog sitter and our dog was comfortable and happy in her care. We received photos and updates daily, which I really appreciated. Great place for him to socialize with other dogs of all sizes. He was definitely well cared for and came back more confident around other dogs. Would definitely recommend and will use her again!”

“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!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of Ferdinand! It’s weird for me leaving him with someone we don’t know, but Virginia was kind and welcomed him right in. She sent a couple of cute photos which also made me feel better because he looked so happy! She was flexible with pick up since we weren’t sure about ferry times etc. which was super nice, and when we picked him up she sent him home with a bear that he got very attached to :D We’re already going to book her again for another long day away from home!”
“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!”
“My pups are always excited when I pull up at Nicole's, they run right up to the door, which shows me they're happy and comfortable in her home. She's has excellent communication and takes good care of my babies.”
“Jennifer is great! Atlas really enjoyed his first day of doggy day care. Met a bunch of new friends and was wore out when he got home. Really felt like Jennifer tried to get to know him, and felt safe with him there.”
“So much love given to our pup during her daycare stay this last weekend. Thank you Olga and family for taking such good care of our dog for the day! She loved being able to run around in the yard & play fetch. She came home very happy and tired. We would absolutely recommend Olga!”
“Morgan was absolutely wonderful with Vader! You could tell he loved her. She walked him frequently and gave him lots of love and us lots of pics. Would absolutely highly recommend!!!”
“Elaine was quick to respond to a last minute request for daycare need. She was sweet and helpful. Her home was suitable for pets with plenty of room for dogs to play. The yard was large and equipped with water that is available to dogs all day.”

“Audrey was great! She was available on short notice for a next-day visit, was easy to communicate with, showed up exactly when she said she would, and did great with our Cavalier puppy! Will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I have always loved animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I have experience with cats, dogs, bunnies, and reptiles. I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant, and I am ready to care for your special-needs animals. I'm currently a stay-at-home girlfriend, so I am extremely flexible. I can work with your schedule.

I want to work with you and your pet's schedule!
“Virginia was so incredibly kind, communicative and helpful at every turn. She stepped in to help pretty last minute when our regular Dogsitter cancelled and she took excellent care of our girl. So grateful for her and will definitely book her again! 10/10!”

“Stella was amazing! Our nervous little dog felt right at home with her and we always knew she was in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our little girl.”
“Alexis was so lovely! She took my dog on a nice walk while I was at a drs appt and was really accommodating with my schedule. I would book again with her! Thank you, Alexis!”
“Madeline came by to get the dogs zoomiez out so they didn't spend too much alone time being mischievous. I'd recommend Madeline and hope to work with her in the future!”
“Great Rover walker! Sarah was extremely competent and friendly. She made time to meet our dogs when we booked her less than a week in advance, and wore out our doggos. Thanks!”
About: Lover of pets! I’d love to meet your furry (or not so furry) friend. I’m very active, so long walks & even hikes are totally alright by me! I’m here to help you and your pet thrive. Whether that’s walking, playing, feeding, companionship, bathing , etc. I have been caring for pets since I was a youth. Whether that was neighborhood pets, friends pets or family pet. I have experience with a wide range of ages & sizes. I used to live out on a farm for several years and care for kittens, chickens, goats, pigs, and dogs. I helped take care of newborn kittens, feed and foster trust with them. Regularly cleaning the chicken coop, feeding them, collecting eggs and just hanging out with them. I would feed, brush and hang out with the goats also clean out pen. I raised a pig for 4H feeding, caring, and spending lots of quality time with him. And then of course dogs, I spent a good amount of years caring for two labs. Running them, washing them, cleaning up their dog house, feeding them. Snuggles and cuddles of course. I have notoriously always had an orange cat in my life; however living on the farm had about 6-7 cats I cared for. Them being farm cats mostly wanting to be fed and hung out with me in the grass or came by for pets. Neighborhood cats would get pregnant leading me to foster relationships with their kittens, a lot of times rescuing them, cleaning them up and bringing them back to wellness then re-homing them. Overall, I’d love to play & care for your pet as you see fit! Ideally I’d prefer a meet & greet prior to care. I have a very open and flexible schedule; morning's, afternoons and most evenings I should be around. My work schedule is currently evenings Sunday through Tuesday. I make sure pets are fed on time always have water and are let out whenever needed. I also make sure cat’s litter boxes are well maintained.
About: I’ve cared for both farm and house pets for most of my life. My dream is to have a homestead with as many animals as I can care for. I’ve taught dogs and my cat different commands and would love would love to learn more things to train. I believe mental enrichment is so important to keep animals living a happy life. I’m currently a stay-at-home per parent so my routine is quite flexible. I try not to be away from homes for too long so my dog doesn’t have to be crated for prolonged periods. I am no stranger to walking dogs on leash. I currently don’t have a fenced yard so my dog only goes out on leash but in the past I have walked dogs of all sizes. I will treat you and your babies with respect and care. I understand a pets body language and am able to assess a situation to intuit what your pet needs.

About: I have owned pets all my life and along the way I’ve picked up a few tricks that I can use. I am also currently learning to become a veterinarian so I have knowledge that can be useful in an emergency. I am doing a summer course that's online so I have lots of free time to keep your pet(s) safe. I have a couple camping trips planned but they are mostly on weekends. My schedule is only open until the 24th of September, after that I’m back in college. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but I can always hook up your pet to a leash. I currently own two dogs who are both crate trained so if they don’t get along my dogs can be crated.

About: Hello there! My name is Avery (he/him). I love all types of animals, both common and exotic pets! I have the most experience with cats, birds, dogs and some small animals (guinea pigs and rabbits). My experience with fish and reptiles is more limited, but I have no problem with caring for either of those as well when given proper instructions and their routines. My only limitations for these pets is that I am only comfortable with handling non-venomous/poisonous types. Pets like snakes, arachnids and rats often get a bad rep, so it is important to me that I can be someone who offers that option of care. These kinds of babies deserve just as much love and respect as common pets too! I intend to keep your home and pets well cared for, and ensure your loving pets are treated as if they were my own while I watch and visit them. I love any and all breeds, whether it’s dogs, cats, birds, or any other unique pets! I only have some slight limitations for very large/giant breeds of dogs depending on the temperament of your pup. If you have a gentle giant who is leash trained well, I have no issue with that! However if you have a giant pup who is sweet but may be a bit intense/pulls frequently during walks, physically it is a bit too much for me to handle at the moment. I am still absolutely open to drop ins and/or house sitting for these cases if you have a fenced yard to potty and play with your babies! I am an organized, clean individual with a sociable, outgoing personality, so I can give your pets the most exciting playtime and walks they can experience! If you have any questions or concerns, I accept both texts and phone calls, and if a call is missed I promise to get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you so much for showing interest! Currently I am only available for daily walks and check ins starting from Fridays up to Mondays, as I also have an on site part-time job Tuesdays - Thursdays. I am available for house sitting anytime of the week if you are simply requiring someone to watch your empty home, or if you have a low maintenance pet that does not require daily walks (such as any indoor-only pets). However if you are looking for a house+pet sitter with any babies that do require any walks or time outside during my stay, then Fridays-Mondays are applicable to this! I am vigilant in providing the upmost care towards owner's homes and pets and any needs that are communicated with me during my stay. Cleanliness and respect of personal property and boundaries as well as maintaining a pet's routine to help minimize as much stress for them as possible is just as important to me as it is for my clients. If there are ever any additional things in regards to your pet or home that I can do for you (ex. bringing mail in, taking out trash/recycling, plant care etc.) please absolutely let me know!
About: Hi there my name is Kaeti. I have plenty of experience dog sitting and can provide references upon request! My hope is to provide a comfortable environment for your family member while you are on vacation. :) I'm currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to check on your family members and take care of them! I'm pretty open and flexible. I would prefer to care for dogs at my clients home. I may be able to care for animals at my house depending on the client.
About: **Due to a new furry addition, I am currently unable to board dogs in my home. As soon as we get this little guy potty trained, i will once again be doing dog boarding!**My pets are my everything. I bake homemade pet treats, talk to my animals like people and constantly try to teach them new skills. If you look up dog mom in the dictionary, my photo is there. (I am somewhat dog centric but I have one very spoiled cat as well) Lol. I believe socialization is the key to responsible pet ownership. There are no bad dogs, only bad people. I am an AA graduate from Brandman University and am working towards my masters degree in Psychology. I am a Navy Wife, Dog Mom, Cat Mom and your dogs can't wait to be part of our pack. I will treat your pets like they were my own. I am a big fan of sending photos and or videos and am readily available to answer any questions you may have. I can't wait to meet your fur babies! I do live in a mobile home park and my yard isn't huge, but it is fenced and I promise your fur babies will love it here with all the attention and loves they can get!

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, I’ve had the joy of raising and looking after pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My own dog lived past 15 years old, and supporting him through the health challenges that come with age taught me how to administer a wide range of medications and provide the patient, attentive care senior dogs need to stay comfortable and happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, quiet companionship, or a little extra support due to age or medical needs, I’m committed to making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to keep their routine steady, their tail wagging, and your mind at ease knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Now that I’m not working outside the home, I’m able to devote my days to something I genuinely love — caring for pets. My schedule is calm, flexible, and fully centered around being available when pet parents need me most. Whether it’s early‑morning visits, midday check‑ins, or keeping a steady routine for your pet while you’re away, I have the time and attention to make it happen. I’m an early riser, so morning feedings, walks, or drop‑ins fit naturally into my day. I enjoy starting the morning with purpose, and there’s nothing better than beginning the day with a happy tail wag or a content purr. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can offer consistent care, low‑stress routines, and quick communication — all things that help pets feel secure and help you feel confident while you’re away. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into a busy schedule. It’s a meaningful part of my everyday life, and I’m committed to giving your pets the same calm, reliable, loving care I give my own. I’ve learned that the little details make the biggest difference. When I’m in your home, I follow a careful routine to make sure your pets stay secure, comfortable, and stress‑free. * I keep doors and gates fully secured at all times and double‑check them before leaving. * I follow your pet’s routine exactly as you describe it, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any special instructions. * I monitor your pet’s behavior and environment closely, making sure they’re safe, calm, and not getting into anything they shouldn’t. * I keep all medications, treats, and supplies organized and give medications exactly as directed. * I maintain a clean, hazard‑free space by ensuring food, plants, and household items are out of reach. * I stay in communication with you, sending updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. * I respect your home by locking up properly, turning off lights, and keeping everything just as I found it.
“I was blown away by April's positive attitude and dedication to caring for my golden retriever. She meticulously created a safe, pack-like environment where the dogs felt at home, and the areas were exceptionally clean. Even more impressive were her plans to enhance her already wonderful outdoor space. As a side note, April is a certified dog trainer. Shortly after dropping off my dog and running errands in town, I noticed her diligently and patiently leash-training my dog during a walk, as my GPS took me back past her location. April never mentioned this task on Rover or in person; she simply did it on her own time, free of charge, without boasting. Her quiet integrity and humility are extraordinarily impressive. Best Rover experience so far!”
“Rachel did an awesome job with my boys, Parker and Ranger. She had them for a week. She sent me updates and pictures everyday. Went above and beyond when they went on a food strike. We will definitely be returning customers! Thank you Rachel”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our two dogs were so well cared for, and it was clear they were treated with love and attention the entire time. We appreciated the daily photos and updates. It made being away so much easier. We will absolutely be booking again with Danielle”
“Morgan is the BEST! She was so sweet and accommodating and a great communicator. She also sends sweet photos and check in’s which is so nice. Book her for you doggy care needs!”
“My dogs obviously felt comfortable with Nicole and her dogs right from the start. She’s got a nice big fenced yard and they had fun playing together. She really helped me out in a pinch!”
“Avery is a great pet sitter. She is very friendly and knowledgeable. She was available on short notice. She was great with my dog and kept her entertained and happy while I was away for the weekend.”
“My dog was almost immediately at ease with Sara and ran off with her dogs to go play as soon as we got there. Sara clearly provides a safe, loving environment and I will definitely use her again for my pup's care in the future. Highly recommend.”
“Lenore took great care of my dog. Scout and her dog, Rook, seemed to get along and it was great to know that she was staying in a “dog friendly house.” It can be hard to leave your dog behind with a stranger, but I felt confident that she would be well cared for.”
