“I almost want to gatekeep Kathryn, she’s so good. Dog sat my puppy for 10 days and don’t think he wanted to come home. No but in all seriousness, Kathryn is the epitome of professional and a talented dog person. Appreciate her so much.”

“We've had Zoey stay with Jennifer and her family several times and they are so great with her! Zoey fits right in, and even as she's getting older they are happy to help her with what she needs. Highly recommend.”


“Flawless. Leah and Chris did a phenomenal job making me and Gnocchi feel comfortable with the arrangement and she had a great time. She's very high energy and they gave her a lot of playtime and attention. And sent tons of pictures too!”

“Carolyn is fantastic, she has such a warm heart and is kind, compassionate, and fantastic at communication. She sent multiple updates of my pup while I was on a work trip, including pictures, videos, and text. Carolyn also proposed a meet and greet before I even booked with her, and was understanding and quick to find a solution to accommodate when my return flight was delayed for pick up. Highly recommend!!”

“This is our first time leaving our dog with anyone away from home and we couldn’t have asked for a better place. Every day we were gone, Matt and his wife updated us with pictures of how our dog was doing without any nudging. We were able to relax and have a wonderful family vacation with no worries or concerns about our dog. He also got to play with so many other dogs that he had no time to even miss us which was a great plus! The next time we go out of town, we will be using their services again.”

“Lisa sent us pictures and updates while she cared for our pups which was really comforting . One of our dogs is very old and we were a little concerned about him. But he did great. Lisa clearly took good care of both of them as they were happy and healthy when I picked them up.She didn't bat an eye when I brought over special food. We will always call on Lisa when we go out of town!”
“Paul was great to work with. I loved all the photos and updates he shared during our time away. Georgia immediately felt welcomed and was excited to be in Paul’s home.”

“Emily and Erik have been wonderful with our dog Blitz. Blitz loves to come play with their dog Lennox and we get updates and are never concerned about leaving him in their care. Definitely recommend this family for your dogs care.”

“We are incredibly grateful for Araceli for watching our two pups! It’s our 2nd boarding experience with her - 1st for our 5-month old - and they were well taken care of. Def one of the best Rover experiences we’ve had”


“Moira was awesome! She took such great care of Rufus, sent a lot of pictures every day and filled me in on how he was while I was away! She went above and beyond with the meet and greet, having Rufus explore the place before going there to stay. She took him on walks and made sure to have water available and a foldable bowl for any moment he needed to drink. She was thoughtful throughout every part! I highly recommend her and couldn’t be happier with my Rover experience. :)”

“Kristen and her partner are the best! We had our pup stay at their house while we traveled for the week. Her communication was excellent- providing updates with photos every day, it was something our family always looked forward to. It was clear that our pup was happy at their home - large backyard to play in, lovely walks in the neighborhood, a space to hide upon hearing fireworks, lovely humans to keep him company. Highly recommend!!”

“Our dog Mia came back looking so relaxed and happy after her time with Kimo. He’s very responsive and accommodating. We’d love to have him watch Mia again!”

“Ann and her family always take excellent care of Tripp. Her dog, Pepito, is very sweet and gets along well with mine. Her daughters are so sweet with my dog and I know he is always very well loved and cared for when I am traveling. Ann takes care of Tripp regularly and I am very glad for her flexibility and help!”

“I would definitely have our dog stay with Maryorie again! She sent pictures and videos everyday which was great to see how much fun our dog was having. I would absolutely recommend her to dog sit!!!”

“Hannah was great with our dog, Brooklyn! She sent lots of updates and progress reports. Our dog has severe anxiety, and he had a great time there. We can’t wait to hire her again!”

“I cannot rave enough about Sandy! Not only was she very communicative before I booked her, but she kept me in the loop the whole time I was away from my Baxter. She was so great with him and the whole process was just really easy. I even extended my time another night because I felt so confident he was in good hands, so I left him there so I could run around Portland by myself for one extra day. I will definitely be using Sandy again next time I return!”

“Haleigh was such an accommodating host to my sweet girl roonie! She was so thoughtful and communicative and sent me so many cute photos of my girl while she was watching her! I would recommend Haleigh to anyone!!”

“Very kind and patient with our energetic 8 month old. Large secure fenced yard he had fun playing in. It was his very first time away from home and family; we couldn’t have asked for a better experience for him.”

“Cassie was recommended to me by a friend! She was so great with my senior cat who needs daily meds. Cassie had excellent communication, gave great updates, and overall put me at so much ease knowing Kitty was so well taken care of. I will definitely be using her again!”


“Sammy was an amazing cat sitter and I can’t recommend her enough. She is incredibly kind and clearly has a natural way with animals. My cats are usually very shy and take a long time to warm up to new people, but they were comfortable with her almost immediately, which says a lot. She kept me updated while I was away and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Sammy to watch my cats again in the future!”


“Kristen was great with my 2 kitty babies ! I also had to change my booking dates very last minute and she was super flexible about it which I really appreciated :) she provided the care my cats needed while I was gone with minimal service and she provided great pictures and updates with how they were doing with each check in, I already booked her again for another trip I have coming up!”


“Mandi is the best! My cat had a little accident and she was quick to take care of it. I feel much better knowing Mandi is my go-to person to check in on my cat! She’s great!”


“Having Misty care for our cat Daphne made us feel completely at ease on our holiday trip. Daphne bonded with her quickly, and Misty was very alert to her needs and any changes in her needs or schedule. She even offered Daphne some new toys and experiences. She checked in every day with photos and videos. Coming home to a cat who was well taken care of and at ease was the best way to end the year.”

“Chelsea is amazing! We will definitely be re-booking with her! She is great with communication, asking any questions, and thorough in her visits and follow ups.”


“Sydney was so amazing with our cats! She made sure that they were well taken care of and got lots of love. We can't thank her enough for how well she took care of our cats!”

“Courtney did a fantastic job taking care of our cat! She went above and beyond what is expected from a sitter, and we felt confident that our baby was in good hands. Thank you Courtney!”


“Brooklyn did a great job taking care of my kitty when I had to go out of town on short notice. She was wonderful to work with, her attention to detail and communication skills are top notch. My shy cat quickly warmed up to her after a few visits. This shows that Brooklyn is great with animals, as my pet is very selective about who she trusts. I look forward to booking with Brooklyn again and I would highly recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter.”


“Sadie was so helpful making daily drop-ins on our cat, while we were away. She was gracious in having to clean up quite a few messes he made, she made sure his food, water, and litter box were kept fresh, and she spent some time with him each day to keep him from getting too lonely. She was very easy to communicate with during our trip. Thank you, Sadie for taking such good care of our kitty!”

“Francisca was amazing! I would recommend her to anyone and would absolutely use her services again. She was very communicative and provided us with daily updates. She went above and beyond what we asked, and my cat loved her so much!”


“Marissa is a fantastic pet sitter. My cats adore her and she gives them so much attention on her visits. I am always so excited to see her photo updates. My cats are not overly high-need, but she does a great job making sure their food is full, their water is fresh, and their litter boxed is cleaned. Marissa is very easy to communicate with and someone I absolutely trust with my pets. I have so much peace of mind knowing she will be there to take care of my best buds when I am out of town.”


“This was our first time using Rover.com. Emily was great. She took wonderful care of our kitty. She will be our go to anytime a kitty sitter is needed from here on out!”


“Alura was very attentive to my cat, Romeo. She paid attention to detail, and asked questions if things were not clear. Romeo was very happy and seemed content and comfortable when I came home. I loved the photos she sent. I also asked Alura to water my garden and flowers, and she did a great job with that. It was very hot the week I was gone, and everything looked great when I returned.”


“Jocelyn did an excellent job taking care of my kitties! She was very thorough and provided regular updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She even managed to give them their meds, which can be tricky. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for reliable and attentive pet care!”

“Dominique took great care of our two dogs, it was the the first time they had ever been left with somebody other than our family and they tend to be a bit needy so we were nervous to leave them but she was welcoming and patient and put us at ease. We booked another stay with her soon after.”
“Emily & Eric took great care of our pups while we were visiting from out of town for a family Christmas party. We appreciate them being so accommodating with the festivities ending a little later than expected.

We will definitely leave our girls with Emily and Eric again when we are back in Vancouver!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jared is exceptional. Jared took wonderful care of my two dogs, Sebastian and Francesca, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment we connected, his communication was clear, thoughtful, and reassuring. He was attentive to their needs, patient, and genuinely kind, exactly the kind of person you hope to find when trusting someone with your fur babies. Sebastian and Francesca were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for when I picked them up, which speaks volumes. It’s obvious Jared takes his role seriously and treats animals with real respect and care, not just as a job but as a responsibility. I would absolutely trust him again without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, top-tier pet care. Thank you, Jared🌹you truly went above and beyond.”

“Parker had such a good time hanging out with Kimo. Kimo has such a chill space and lives close to a great park which was perfect for my senior pup. Kimo was very attentive and responsive. Highly recommend!”

“Debbie has watched Milo many times for me and I feel comfortable and confident every time I drop him off. She takes great care of him and every photo I get it looks like Milo is having a great time! Any and every time I'm in the Vancouver area I send Milo to her ❤️❤️”

“YAY! So grateful I found Elaine. I twisted my ankle and she was there helping me every day for 7 days so that I could rest. Her energy, kindness, flexibility, communication, and love of animals is so evident. I would let Elaine take care of all of my animals at any moment. I will absolutely have her walk Ginger again. And also boarding!”

“Our 17-month old Boxer is full of energy and we haven’t yet trained him to stop pulling on leash. He was staying with his senior grandparents while we traveled, so we hired Victoria to take him on a long daily walk since she knows how to handle a strong dog. Victoria was great! She was timely every day, communicated well before and during the week she walked our pup, and sent great report cards. She asked our thoughts on walking her dog with ours, which we enthusiastically endorsed - our dog loves friends. Her dog and ours had a great time together and our puppy was thrilled when Victoria arrived every day. This was a great experience for us and our puppy.”

“Casey was super with my elderly chihuahua and also was very communicative around planning. I appreciated getting to have a meet n greet prior. Thanks for taking great care of Lucy!”

“Loreley goes above and beyond for our pup and always ensures to communicate with us. Loreley is always on time, sends us pictures and is respectful and professional. Our pup loves Loreley!”

“Jessica did a great job with Toby! We really appreciated her taking the time to come meet him first and make sure he was comfortable. The walk went great and we appreciate the cute pictures!”

About: "As a dedicated and reliable pet caregiver, i will provide an experience tailored to your dog’s unique personality and needs. I understand that your dog is a beloved family member, which is why I prioritize maintaining their familiar routine—from specific feeding times and favorite walking routes to their preferred sleeping spots. Whether your pup is an energetic adventurer who needs plenty of playtime or a calm senior who appreciates gentle companionship and belly rubs, I offer attentive, one-on-one care in a safe and loving environment. You can travel with total peace of mind knowing I provide regular photo updates, clear communication, and the same level of affection I give my own pets. My goal is to ensure your dog stays happy, healthy, and tired out until your return!" As a part-time employed Mom and Grandma, I like to be busy and have time to spare for loving more than just my family and pets. At this moment, I have 3 dogs and two cats, all who need my personal attention several times a day. I would love to do that for you too. I know what it’s like to be stressed about your kitty or dog while away and I can help relieve that, even for just a day or a week.
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs all my life. Kittens, puppies, senior pets, you name it! I currently have an adult dog (who I’ve raised as a puppy) and had a senior cat so I’m very aware what responsibilities come with younger to older pets. I’ve also looked after friends and neighbors cats and dogs while they’re away. Walking dogs is also my favorite thing to do! Overall I stay local since I have my own dog to care for. I also work remotely so my schedule is very flexible during the day. I’m very aware of any new environment that I’m in. I believe that you should respect everyone’s space the way I would want my own space to be. Understanding boundaries is also vital since everyone and their pet(s) are different. Making sure you and your pet feel safe makes me better at my job!

“Jocelyn was so great to work with and so good to our little Bud! The progress reports and photos were definitely something we looked forward to! Will absolutely be utilizing her again and would 100% recommend her to anyone.”

“Kacey is great, she does such a great job caring for my dog. When Tana might have been stung by a bee she contacted Rover’s Vet, and monitored her just to make sure there would be no reaction. Highly recommend!”

“Amir did an amazing job taking care of our dog Yoshi! I knew right away from the meet and greet that he was going to be a great fit. He has a very calm energy and it was the perfect vibe for our Shiba. he was very communicative throughout the time we were out of town which put us at ease. 10/10 I would have Amir take care Yoshi again.”

“Cassie, is amazing! Our dog gets soooo excited to see her when she comes. She has been so flexible and adaptive to our dogs needs. I know she is in good hands when we are away!!!”

“Steele is fantastic! He takes amazing care of Nigel and is super knowledgeable and punctual. We love that he always keeps us in the loop, whether he's sharing a quick update about how the walk went or staying on top of scheduling. I’d trust him with Nigel any day!”
