“We are new to the area and booked with Val. She took great care of our girl Sonder. Upon picking her up she ran back to Val and got some last minute pets. We recieved pictures everyday. Thanks for caring for our girl!”
“Excellent experience overall with Loc. From our initial meet-and-greet prior to Vinny's stay, all the way through to picking up my pup, Loc communicated great and was flexible about our pick up and drop off times. Vinny had a great time with Rosie and the other pups at Loc's house, which I know because Loc sent me some really nice pics throughout my whole time on vacation. I would definitely book with Loc again in a heartbeat!”
“This was my first time leaving my pooch and Mollie made it a very wonderful experience. She kept me up to date on Harleys happiness. She truly went above and beyond my expectations. I believe Harley will be making visits again soon and often. Thank you Mollie Harley and I appreciate you!”
“Ethan did a wonderful job with my boy. He hadn’t been boarded on his own before and he had a great time! Ethan sent me updates with videos and photos each day. He was flexible with us picking up earlier than anticipated. Will definitely have him watch Enzo again!”
“This is the second time we have used Christopher for boarding and we use him for daycare every week. Our dogs love him. They get so excited they jump out of the car and he's a great communicator. 10 stars! Thank you for all you do for our babies, Christopher & his lady! 🙏❤️💯”
“Kaitlin and her husband Nathan took excellent care of my little dog Molly. This is the first time I left her alone with someone else, for over a couple weeks. They helped Molly transition from having a minor separation anxiety, to become fully comfortable by the end of the stay. They cared for her like their own dog. Kaitlin sent photo updates every few days. I recommend Kaitlin, and would book with her again!”
“Mariana was great with watching my dog Wally! I had a last minute trip and Mariana was happy to take him in. She sent me pictures and gave me updates throughout my whole trip. She’s great with dogs and I loved how she kept me updated on all of my dogs activities! I would book Mariana again for whenever I need a sitter for my pup.”
“Thanks Sherry for taking such great care of my pet! She was incredibly responsible throughout the day care today. She always provides timely photo and videos and takes absolutely great care of Charli and she came home so happy that I highly recommended Sherry! Definitely will book Again!”
“Gisella always takes great care of my bulldog Walter. He loves going there and getting to play with Gisella’s dog Brownie. Gisella is always communicative and flexible, would 100% recommend.”
“I have all great things to say about Priscilla! We booked her for the first time last minute. She was able to find time during the week for our dogs to meet her pup and her. She has a fantastic back yard for lots of play. She was super communicative and best of all the boys loved her! We have 2 cattle dog mix puppies that can be a bit of a handful at times and she managed them like a dream. We will be booking with her again in the future!”
“Duke and I are so glad we found Kayle! We have booked two stays with her, one being an 11 day stay (with a 3rd one coming up soon!) and she has been nothing short of amazing. She is very attentive to Duke and has treated him like her own since the first night. She is very flexible which is a bonus for me as I am active duty military (100% recommend). We have definitely found our Washington sitter in Kayle and will continue to book with her for as long as she will have us!! You can feel very comfortable and confident in Kayle’s ability to care for your pet. She keeps open communication through the entire stay and gives your fur baby lots of love while you’re away!! ❤️❤️ 🐶”

“Ren and his family were exceptional caregivers for our very very active puppy. They were thoughtful with everything they did with our dog. They’re wonderfully responsive, professional and clearly have years of experience with dogs. Ren is truly a dog whisperer. Thank you!”
“Diahann recently watched my two dogs, Apollo and Freya, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From start to finish, her communication was outstanding. She kept me updated constantly with pictures, videos, and thoughtful messages, so I knew they were in great hands the entire time. Apollo and Freya were clearly well taken care of — they were relaxed, happy, and healthy when I returned. It’s so comforting to know that they were not only safe but also receiving lots of love and attention. I highly recommend Diahann and will definitely be booking her again!”
“Melody was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She’s very sweet, patient, and clearly loves animals. She has two adorable, playful little Chihuahuas, and there’s plenty of space for the dogs to run around, play, and get comfortable. I felt completely at ease leaving my pup with her and would happily book with her again.”
“From the moment we booked with Noelle we felt confident that our boy would be in very good care. Noelle exceeded all our expections, she is beyond amazing!!! We would get daily updates and photos. Jack got daily walks and play time with her sweet dogs. We will definitely be using Noelle's services in the future!”
“Kristin fit me in on super short notice, and was wonderful when it came to communication. It was amazing to know my skiddish, nervous dog had a safe place to run around and be himself while I was away!”
“Jill and Glen just watched Nova over the 4th of July holiday weekend and we couldn’t be happier with the care they provide! They send daily updates with messages and pictures, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. It’s clear they genuinely care about making Nova feel comfortable, loved, and at home. They truly go above and beyond, and we will absolutely continue booking with them. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet sitters!”
“Kelly is amazing! She is so sweet and welcoming. She took such great care of my little guy. She made sure to give daily updates with pictures on how he was adjusting to her home. I would 100% recommend Kelly to anyone looking for dog sitting services.”

“Brooklyn took wonderful care of my cat. She has such a warm and assuring presence that was the perfect fir for my shy gal. Everything was in order when I arrived back home from my trip, and her daily updates assured me my pet was safe and well cared for. Thank you for your kindness!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with K.D! She was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and caring, making sure our girl was safe, comfortable, and happy while we were away. After each visit she wrote us a thorough synopsis of how the visit went, what she and our kitty did together, and how our girl was doing. On our wedding day, she even surprised us by creating adorable art out of our cat’s toys—such a thoughtful and creative gesture that meant so much. We came home to a happy kitty and felt completely at ease the entire time. We couldn't recommend her more highly!”
“Tatiana always takes such good care of our cats, is communicative, and takes the best pictures! It is peace of mind to have a pet sitter who is diligent and genuinely cares!”
“I can’t recommend Soleil enough as a cat care provider! She visited Zima every day while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such capable and caring hands. Zima is a very social cat who needs a lot of interaction and playtime, and Soleil went above and beyond to give her the attention she craves. I especially appreciated how closely Soleil monitored Zima’s food and water intake, and how she kept me updated with thoughtful notes and photos. It was clear she wasn’t just checking in — she was truly looking out for Zima’s well-being. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and genuinely devoted to your pet’s happiness and health, Soleil is the best. Zima and I are both so grateful for her!”
“This is the second time I’ve booked Paul to watch my cats, and once again he went above and beyond with pictures while I was away, great communication, keeping my house clean, and even bringing in my mail and garbage cans. Highly recommended!”
“Brianna was amazing. She was on point the whole time. I felt super comfortable with her during our meet and greet and instantly wanted to hire her. She took care of everything while we were away, sent tons of pictures and kept us up to date. I really loved the experience. She even offered to do other things while the cats were eating which was super thoughtful. I plan on hiring her again and would highly recommend her to friends and family.”
“This was our second time having Stephanie care for our two young cats in our home, and once again she did an amazing job. I felt completely at ease traveling, knowing our cats were in such good hands. Communication was fantastic — I received lots of photos and updates, which was so reassuring. She also went above and beyond by helping me handle a refrigerator issue while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Best sitter experience ever and a great value! Angel was friendly, knowledgeable, detail-oriented, communicative, and overall fantastic to work with. He's great with cats and even our most shy ones warmed up to him quickly. We especially appreciated the pre-consult where he came over to meet our four kitties and he asked a lot of great questions to ensure they would get the best care possible while we were gone. He followed our To Do requests to a T and we got super detailed updates after every visit with lots of photos. We can't recommend him enough and hope to work with him again for future trips!”
“Micayla is reliable and very communicative. She checks on my cat when I'm out of town. I always feel that my home is safer when she visits everyday, and I know my cat is well taken care of and well loved when she comes over. We love Micayla, and highly recommend her!”
“Alexa and Connor were good communicators and were willing to come out to do a meet and greet before confirming booking. Overall I had a good experience and would rebook with them again! Like they said you get two for one in their pricing. My cats warmed up to them and were taken well care of while I was on travel.”
“Hannah was consistently on time and fulfilled all my detailed pet care needs. She was a good communicator as well as a good problem solver (because nothing ever goes as expected). I would recommend her to anyone for any pet care needs.”
“Jessica took excellent care of my kitties! I highly recommend her to anyone who wants the best care for their pets! She messaged me everyday, sent pics and video, and followed all of my instructions. I highly recommend her, and plan on using her again if she's available for my next trip!”
“Another great week with Kyley! Lots playing, snuggles and fun. They even let me know about a wasp nest I hadn't seen so I could get it taken care of. It's small details like this that set her apart and gave me a lot of peace that my home and pets are well taken care of.”
About: I’ve had cats in my life since a very young age! My first cat was an outdoor cat we inherited from our neighbors when I was 3. She found her way to our house and never left. I was the only one that could touch her and hold her. I love doing pop-ins for kitty clients, I have 3 cats at home that won’t allow kitties to spend the night with us.
About: Currently doing regular care for several cats for short and extended periods. Have experience in extensive medical needs with cats who need multiple medications per day, or even kitties who just need more mental stimulation and playtime.

When he was picked up he was very relaxed & happy; so I know he was well taken care of. I will definitely use Paul again.”

We had modi go to someone else while I wasnt in town,mistake there on my part, and she was so willingly to take him in an hours notice.

Throughout the day, Molly sends pictures to update me & even goes above and beyond by dropping Finley off home on the nights I work late. I am ecstatic that Finley gets to socialize with some furry friends during the day and I don’t have to worry about her while I’m working. I highly recommend Molly as she is passionate in caring for dogs and is very accommodating with her services!”

About: I work from home & look for any excuse to get out & touch some grass! I enjoy taking my two dogs on walks & would be quite keen on taking others too! I have significant availability during the day as I am permitted to take my break when desired throughout the work day! I often go on walks with my two dogs but can also take yours, too! Separate or together! I keep to the shade & will only walk dogs as long as they display signs of needing it. Especially in this current heat, I know that my dogs can only stand a solid 10-15 minute walk themselves.
About: We are a married couple that both have experience in caring for animals for both of our entire lives. We deeply understand how much trust is involved when someone else is looking after your pets. I (Alexa) have grown up with furry companions and have always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs. Connor has also spent his life caring for pets and understands the responsibility and attention every animal needs. Between us, we have experience caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including high energy dogs, large and small breeds, senior pets, and animals who need various medications. We have cared for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors, along with our own animals! Alexa has also volunteered at local animal shelters and has had the pleasure of listening to Lee Asher speak in person. We are currently proud pet parents to a small dog, a large dog, a mischievous cat, and a senior kitty, so we know firsthand that every pet has their own routine, quirks, and needs. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, medication, patience, or simply some extra love while you’re away, we will treat them like they are our own. Your pets are in great hands with us! I (Alexa) currently work as an EMT, which means I work only 7-8 days per month. That leaves plenty of time to go wherever duty calls! Connor gets his work schedule week by week, but normally has two days off (although they might change weekly). We would be more than happy to house & pet sit for you, provide walks, and do daily check-ins as well! In a clients home, we will respect your space and go places that are only necessary to your pets care & safety. We make sure to always clean before we go, and believe in leaving spaces exactly as you’ve left them for us. You can count on us to make sure your furry friend has all that they need while you are gone, in the safety and security of your own home.
“Thank you Kyley and Nick for your continued patience with my little big boy Henry! He can be a little turd but you guys handle him well and I truly appreciate that, as well as your flexibility with our little hiccups like forgetting the harness is with me at work. You guys are awesome!”
“Mollay kept me up to date on when she would arrive at my house and when she left. She got great pictures of my boy and followed my instructions perfectly! She's the first one I go to for any last minute walks I need.”
“We were really lucky to have Monique look after our pup. She’s highly professional, friendly, reliable. Best of all, our pup loved her and we will definitely book Monique again in the future as well as recommend her to all of our friends.”
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, horses, cows, chickens, and ducks from a very young age. For the last 13 years I have worked in the pet food industry developing a knowledge and passion for pet health, behavior and nutrition. My current work schedule is Tues-Sat, I am available for walks, potty breaks and feedings before or after my shifts. Sunday and Monday there is more flexibility in my schedule and I can do mid day drop ins or longer distance runs/walks with higher activity level pets. I would love to meet you and your pet to discuss any special needs or requirements for their care. I have a fenced yard and live in walking distance to a public park and school field that can be used before/after school hours. I prefer to work with your pet in the environment which they are most comfortable, your home. I am open to short stays at my home if that is what is best for your situation.
About: I work from home. When your dog stays with me, it will have companionship all day. My kids are all grown now. We have 2 adults living in our household There are not many moments when your dog will be alone. Ive recently suffered a knee injury, so my runs have turned into walks. Wapato lake is near by, and where I take my rover dogs to get exercise, We have a very loving golden Winnie that lives with us. She loves other dogs. I work from home full time. Very Flexible with dates and times. My 31 year old daughter lives with me and also works from home Very Dog friendly home. They are where I am. Large back yard for your furbaby to roam. Chuck it, toys and lots of love available
About: I have owned or cared for dogs my entire life, with the occasional rodent or scaled creature thrown in. Hopefully not at the same time. I’m comfortable with basic wound cleaning as well as administering medication. After a period working in a pet store I’m also more skilled in ear cleaning, breathing treatments, and temperature taking than I’d care to be. Work situation changed so I’m more open to daytime walks and drop ins. I also keep a weird sleep schedule so if you need a late night drop in or walk, hit me up. Update: I did recently get a dog. He’s a young doodle and prefers to chew on my hair and hands more than toys, but gets along well with other dogs. He sure everyone wants to be his friend. He is young, potty trained and a great playmate. So right now the only way I’m able to sit is if your dog would like new bestie. I am unable to care for pets in my home. I live with my niece and her cat can be a little…stabby, for lack of a better word. In your home, I’ll be following your lead. I do tend to go outside with dogs at night, even with fenced yards. I am always wary of bobcats and coyotes looking for water and snacks. I’m also perfectly comfortable with a pile of animals sleeping in bed with me so if that’s what your animals prefer, I’m here for it.
About: I’ve taken care of all varieties of animals. I have experience with special needs pets, blind, deaf, diabetic, incontinence, seniors, etc. I love senior pets, they hold a special place in my heart. I have fostered for the humane society for a long time. I’m available part time, on my days off to give your pets the love, care and attention they deserve! I’m a busy beaver, but never too busy to give a little extra love! I have 4 cats and a dog. My cats all love to keep friends company. I have a fully fenced yard, a kennel outside and a crate inside just in case. Plenty of toys and activities to keep your friend occupied.
“Brianna is wonderful. She takes great care of my dog whenever she is with him. It's so nice to know that my fur baby is in good hands, weather he is going for a walk, at a playdate, or boarding with her. Absolutely will continue to call on Brianna when I need pet care.”

“Kelly did an amazing job helping my quirky dog feel very happy and comfortable during the week she stayed with her! Kelly was communicative and sent great photos of Goldie every couple of days.

“Kristin fit me in on super short notice, and was wonderful when it came to communication. It was amazing to know my skiddish, nervous dog had a safe place to run around and be himself while I was away!”
“My dog didn't come back traumatized, which is a good thing. Kristine sent me pictures of my dog fitting right in with the others. I won't have a problem leaving my dog the next time I have to leave.”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life, growing up with them and continuing to care for dogs for friends and others over the years. I’m also the proud owner of an 8-year-old Newfoundland/Collie mix, so I’m very comfortable with larger dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and plenty of affection. However, I also grew up with dachshunds and love the little ones just the same. One of my strengths is reading a dog’s personality and responding to what they need. I’m naturally affectionate with friendly, social dogs, but I’m equally comfortable giving shy or timid dogs the space and time they need to feel safe. I never want to force an interaction—I’d rather let a dog build trust at their own pace. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention and stick closely to their normal routines. Communication is also very important to me. I know how reassuring it is to receive updates when someone else is caring for your pet, so owners can expect me to be responsive and keep them informed. For dogs staying with me, I have a fenced backyard and live in a very walkable neighborhood, making it easy to provide outdoor time, exercise, and walks throughout the day. My pup, Drogo, is very kind and loves other dogs and he's especially gentle with the little ones. He can be a little grumpy with puppies, so that is a case-by-case basis (and I would encourage a meet and greet beforehand). Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Whether your dog wants walks and playtime, lots of pets, or simply a calm person nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make them feel comfortable. I have a very open and flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care a natural part of my day rather than something I have to squeeze in around other commitments. Your dogs will be my priority. My flexibility also allows me to be responsive to owners and accommodate changes when possible. I want both you and your dog to feel like they’re getting plenty of attention—not like they’re just another appointment on my calendar. Safety, trust, and making your dog feel comfortable are always my priorities. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, boundaries, and quirks, so I’ll take the time to learn what works best for yours rather than assuming every dog needs the same kind of care. For dogs staying in my home, I have a securely fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and live in a very walkable neighborhood for regular walks and exercise. My dog, Drogo, is friendly and enjoys the company of other dogs, but I think introductions are important. I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand so everyone can get comfortable and we can make sure our dogs are a good fit—especially with puppies or dogs who may need a little more time to adjust. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both your space and your dog’s established routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely regarding meals, walks, medications or special care instructions, doors and gates, and anything else that helps keep your pet safe and comfortable. I also pay close attention to a dog’s body language. Some dogs want to be best friends immediately, while others need patience and space before they feel comfortable with someone new. I’m happy to let them set the pace. And of course, communication is a big priority for me. I’ll be responsive and keep you updated so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention while they’re in my care.
“Charley had another great stay with Jennifer! We appreciate all the photos and updates 😃. Charley was very excited when we dropped her off and very comfortable with Jennifer.”
“Jennifer was such a great host for my doggies. She made my first time with rover worth while and would love to book with her again for any vacations. She’s very experienced and knowledgeable of labs (I’m sure all other dogs). Since my dogs are young they could be a handful and with her experience she was able to do some training during their stay. I highly recommend her to first time rover users or just anyone looking for a skilled host with great professionalism and communication skills.”
