“David’s place was like a home away from home for our two dogs. They have different needs and personalities and David was an excellent caretaker for both of them. I hope to be able to have them visit again!”
“Our dog loved being at Maren and Johnathon’s house. He was nervous at first but warmed up right away! I was updated with pictures every now and then and didn’t have to worry about him at all. They are very responsive and friendly also. I will definitely keep in touch for future dogsitting!”
“John was great with our shy pup, Bear. The photos and updates were wonderful. He was very easy to communicate with, friendly, and immediately put me at ease knowing he’s a long-time dog person. Our pup was exhausted when we got home so he got plenty of walks and all the fetch he could have wanted. I will gladly reach out to John again in the future!”
“Marlena and her family were loving, caring, and communicative during my dogs stay. They sent lots of photos, handled his food aggression with other dogs perfectly, and even helped with training during his stay! He stayed over the holidays so they let him open his presents as well. They truly love and care for animals and have training and experience to do so. I would highly recommend them!”
“I am so lucky to have such a great Rover. The attentiveness to my babies even when my little girl is being a brat is such a blessing. I can not recommend Diahann enough.”
“Always love the way the dogs are cared for with Jeremy. Regular updates throughout the time they’re with him. No complaints. As long as he’s available, he’s always our go-to dog sitter!”
“Sarah was a Rockstar with my puppy Beau. She went above and beyond to try different training techniques to prevent him from pulling and getting distracted during walks. She sent me detailed instructions on things that worked and didn't. I would highly recommend her fur baby care to anyone.”
“Darby was an AMAZING sitter for our 1 year old Shepherd Mix. She sent daily updates of how Nova was doing. Her experience with working dogs showed through with the stimulation provided throughout Nova’s time there. Would highly recommend!”
“Nothing but the best! We appreciate the time and care you gave little Pooter! And she appreciated it, too! She was beat when she got home and slept the night through without getting up for a bathroom call! Good exercise, good company...everything was great! Will Re-book with Ashleigh again and again! Randy C.”
“I had to leave my dog for a longer period than I ever have before, and I was really nervous about it. That completely changed when I met Jerrie! She was so kind and understanding about my anxiety, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout my trip, she communicated consistently and sent photos, which made such a difference and helped me relax knowing my dog was in good hands. When I picked her up, it was clear my dog was happy to see me, but also that she had truly bonded with Jerrie and loved her. That meant everything to me. I will absolutely be using Jerrie from now on whenever I need to leave my dog. Highly recommend!”
“We have never left our baby with anyone but family and were nervous to leave him. He loved it there and we were kept at ease with the photos and updates that Keep sent us. Thanks Keep and we will definitely be leaving Tokie again.”
“Sheena and her family took such good care of our two dogs! Our pups wounded their paw pads prior to being dropped off and they took time to keep their feet clean and bandaged throughout their stay. We received pictures and updates everyday which made us feel so good knowing they were doing well. We really appreciate the care that they gave our babies and definitely recommend them!!!”
“Kristin was great! She sent me pics of my dog everyday and kept me updated with everything. I can tell that she took great care of my dog because she was so happy when I picked her up. Definitely want to book again :) thank you again, Kristin!”
“Our dog had so much fun with Pamela. I will use her services again. Excellent care and no worries. She heard my concerns as we have a young dog and didn't know how he would interact while eating. Her report showed me she heard us and in the end, our dog had no aggressiveness toward other dogs when his food was presented. Excellent.”
“Absolutely wonderful with my puppy Dante. Good communication, friendly and sent me updates for peace of mind. I will definitely be using them again when I am out of town or need a break from puppy. Thank you!”
“James has a great outdoor space for the dogs! They sent updates of my dog running around with their other dogs! My dog had a lot of fun and was exhausted his first day home!”

“Another trip with peace of mind… My husband and I travel quite frequently. We were concerned about having a pet due to our travel. Thank goodness we have such trust worthy, reliable loving cat visitors… Lori and Lorelai always make me feel so much better about traveling. If you’re looking for a cat sitter dog sitter anything having to do with your pets do not hesitate to call these ladies. They’re the best on every level!”
“Julie was so great!! Leaving my kitties home alone is always nerve-wracking but knowing she would be there every day to check in on them was such a relief. I would definitely book Julie again.”
“Tiffany & Tiara are always dependable. They take Dexter for a walk each time and he loves walks. They show up on time and always send an update. I have used their services many times and can count on them.”
“Sara was incredible! She went above and beyond any expectations for a drop-in petsitter. She noticed my cat was walking with some difficulty and researched massages that could help her. She spent time massaging Maddie's back and leg muscles and now she's walking with much more ease! She made recommendations for play toys that has given my 12-year old cat some much needed excitement. She sent photos and videos every day of her playing with Maddie, and now I think Maddie missing that time with Sara today! Sara was on time every day and very respectful of our home. We are deeply grateful to have found her and will definitely seek her out again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for over 10 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and those needing a little extra patience and care. Whether it’s playtime, training support, or simply keeping your pet comfortable, I make sure every animal feels safe, happy, and part of the family. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for walks, drop-ins, or playtime during weekdays after work hours. Your pet’s routine and comfort are my top priority, so I make sure to adjust my schedule to meet their needs. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love making new friends. Safety is always my first priority, so I supervise playtime closely and can crate your pup if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing a safe, loving, and structured environment so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
“Fawn went above and beyond to care for our cats! We are also in the middle of showing our home to sell and she ensured the floor was free of food and litter each time she checked on them. She sent AMAZINGLY CUTE photos of them and they adored her. She is a pet whisperer!”
About: I have worked for about 6 months in a doggy daycare facility, where I was able to enjoy keeping our customers fur babies happy and safe. Before that I was also volunteering at a private doggy daycare facility in Ireland, where I spent a few months taking care of all kind of dog breeds. In addition my husband and I welcomed two puppies beginning of last year. Meanwhile they are both about 1 year, so if your pet should stay with us, they will have lots of play time with them :) I'm currently taking this semester off, so I have lots of free time to spent with your loving fur babies. I'm available most of the time, so just sent me a message. I will follow all rules and instructions you give me regarding your pet, anything outside of your guidelines, I will treat your pet like I would want someone to treat mine, with love and care.
“Samantha was amazing! She sent amazing updates and photos of my cat. Leia was cared for incredibly well and Samatha was amazing with following the care details I left!!”
“Sarah was amazing! She went above and beyond caring for my cats. So nice to have someone you can trust in your home and take excellent care of your babies. Thank you Sarah!”
“I can't say thank you enough to Makaila for being so warm and welcoming especially for my first time using Rover. I was very anxious about a stranger being in our home visiting our 13y/o female Keeshond but I also couldn't imagine her being around a bunch of strange people and other dogs like what you'd get at a kennel/boarding house. Makaila was so patient with all my questions, concerns and requests. And my dog liked Makaila instantly at our meet and greet (as did my cats and 5y/o son!) I highly recommend her services to anyone. I know we look forward to having her care for our pets in the future.”
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs for many years and truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that some cats are playful and social while others prefer a calm, quiet approach. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, administering basic medications, playtime, and giving pets the attention and comfort they need while you’re away. Since I’m home full-time, I have a very flexible schedule and can provide reliable care, updates, and lots of love for your pets.
About: Hey there, dog lovers! We know leaving your pup behind is ruff, but that’s where I come in! I treat every four-legged friend like family—whether they’re zooming around the yard, enjoying belly rubs, or napping like a pro. With plenty of love, playtime, and tail wags guaranteed, you can relax knowing your fur baby is in good paws. So go ahead, enjoy your time away—we’ve got the snuggles and treats covered! I am a wedding photographer full time, so I'm at home 85% of the time and only gone on the weekends! That being said, I am a great daily drop-by option for anyone on weekdays or who needs a little extra help when life gets busy! Please check my schedule as I keep it very up to date and accurate for when I am available. I have access to a dog park, but the pups are treated like family - they can lounge and relax right next to me all day, and enjoy some fresh air on the balcony.
“Sidney is fantastic with my anxious cat! She is very communicative, sends me pictures every day, and is always friendly when we talk. It gives me such peace of mind to have her staying with my kitty when I'm away. He even let her pet him! That says everything to me. I'll definitely be booking with Sidney again.”
“I loved having Lisa watch Crosby. Most recently I had to l ave him while I had surgery and I never worried one bit about him. Her gentle manner always comes through and I know Crosby is safe.”
About: I work remotely part time from home. Looking for extra income and more animals to adore. I help take care of family also. Long term and short term availability. Currently working at home part time. So lots of time. And have my own schedules with current animals, livestock, poultry and cats & dogs. Also some reptiles. I am working on sitting up a safe area for pets to be removed from my animals and then will be open for boarding. Unsure on the timeline of that
“I think a Wren is a fantastic person. She was very accommodating with meeting Zeus and I. Zeus warmed up to her immediately. I instantly felt comfortable giving her the key to my house so she could care for Zeus while I was on vacation for 2 weeks. I will definitely be using her again for my future vacations. I esp appreciated the photos and mini updates while I was away. Much appreciated!”

“Our 3 babies had their first visit with Miss Rachel today and it went amazing. They seemed happy and well taken care of. We’re already scheduling for another day next week. Miss Rachel seems very sweet and her family all were involved as well. Thanks Miss Rachel. See you again soon”
“I was able to drop off my dog at their home. I received lots of pictures of him enjoying his day. He fell asleep when he got home so I know he got lots of exercise and attention.”
“Darby was excellent with our girl, Cass! This was our first time being away from our 6 month old pup and we felt so comfortable that she was in good hands! Darby took Cass on a few walks and made sure she got lunch, dinner, and good exercise. Cass seemed to have had a great time and was so tired from all the fun she had when we got home. We will definitely be booking with Darby again!🤍”
About: I have had dogs and cats nearly all of my 36 years. I have experience with walking and caring for dogs from 5 lbs to 150 lbs. I currently have a beautiful male pit bull boxer mix that loves other dogs as well. My children, ages 4 years and 9 years both love animals and would love to play with your pets! I have a very flexible schedule and enjoy going for walks. As a stay at home mother I am glad to earn some income while easing the stresses of having to be away from your pets while working or travelling. Please contact me with any questions you may have so I can start helping you and your pets today! As a stay at home mom I am quite flexible. Other than drop off and pick up times for school I am open and free. I am always cautious with new animals and slow to introduce my pets to yours if it becomes necessary. Taking cues from the animals and soft confident speech are the way to go.
“Candi was awesome! She was so patient and understanding with my pups extreme separation anxiety and did really well communicating with me while I was gone. She responded fast and while I needed her last minute, she was able to adjust to fit me in. So thank you Candi! Maya very much appreciates and loves her new toy! Will definitely use her again as well as recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter.”
“Steffi is super sweet and treated my dog Honey with the love and respect any dog mom would want for their fur baby! Steffi would send me photos and videos to update me on Honey’s status, which was very reassuring. Despite having separation anxiety, Honey seemed to really enjoy her stay with Steffi! I’d highly recommend Steffi to anyone.”
“Very helpful-love the tips and tricks in assisting with my dog. Michael was quick to respond and was able to care for my dog at the last minute. Will be a repeat customer! Thanks again.”

We enjoy taking our dog Moon on a morning, lunch, and evening walk or run each day. We enjoy a spacious home with a fenced in yard.

“We have LOVED using Jeremy as a sitter for our French bulldog Cal. We are moving across the country and we wish we could take Jeremy with us. He treated Cal like he was his own. Cal was very loved and cared for at Jeremys house. We were always allowed to be flexible with drop off and pick up times too. If we are ever back in the area we will be sure and book another stay with Jeremy!!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for about six years and have experience with dogs, cats, and other pets. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with pet sitting, feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, from energetic young animals to older pets that need a little extra attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and always do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is very flexible and I am generally available at most times. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and last minute bookings whenever needed. Disclaimer: Please note that I do not set my own rates for any additional charges, as those are automatically calculated by Rover based on my base rate. My base rate for house sitting is $40 per night. Additional charges may apply depending on your specific needs; however, these are typically lower than Rover’s standard adjustments. Feel free to reach out anytime, and I’ll be happy to provide you with an accurate, personalized quote for your booking.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my life and have 4 years of pet sitting experience caring for neighbors’, friends’, and family members’ pets. Working in veterinary medicine has given me professional experience with medication administration, monitoring health concerns, and supporting pets of all ages and temperaments. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I work four 10-hour shifts during the week and am fully available Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. On my available days, I can provide walks, drop-in visits, and extended care. I prioritize reliability, punctuality, and clear communication with every booking. I prioritize safety and structure during every visit. I use secure leashes and harnesses, monitor pets closely during walks, and follow each owner’s specific care instructions. With my veterinary background, I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate promptly if concerns arise. Baths can be provided if requested.
About: Juggling full-time studies and dedicated dog mom duties to German Shepard Stryker and rescue Doberman Luna. I’ve been raised with dogs and cats since childhood. As the go-to for family and friends in need of pet sitting, my reputation stands strong. I tend to spoil all the fur babies. Experienced with various breeds, adept at overcoming training and behavioral challenges. Your fur babies aren't just pets; they're family. Trust me to provide not just a service but a personalized, loving experience for your cherished family members. Your peace of mind, their wagging adventures. FYI the reason my rates are higher than expected is Rover takes out 20%. As a dog mom myself, I understand the concern of leaving pets alone while at work. Offering dog walks, potty break, and house sitting in Thurston County and surrounding areas. My schedule is open Monday to Friday, 9:00 am - 6:00 pm. Reach out to schedule a meet and greet! I will not be offering stays at my house, but I can do house sitting. For house sitting please message me what dates/time you’re needing. I have made exceptions for last minute bookings when I’m available. At our meet and greet I’ll ask what their normal routines are and all their likes and dislikes. At my home our routine is; wake up, morning potty, enjoy a human-grade breakfast, another potty break, nap in mom's office. Playtime kicks in around noon, followed by post-lunch potty and another nap. We then join mom in her office, demanding attention, before yet another nap until the next break. Potty, Dinner, and Cuddles. Then one last potty before bed. We’re kinda couch potatoes in our home.
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve been someone that my friends, family, and roommates can call when they need someone reliable to look after their animals. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all types like young, old, high energy, low maintenance, anxious, and affectionate. I’m comfortable handling everything from the basics like feeding, walks, and playtime to more involved care like medication, crate training, and senior routines. I’ve always had a natural connection with animals they tend to trust me quickly, and I take that seriously. I approach each pet with patience, respect, and a steady presence. Whether your dog needs a running buddy or your older cat just wants a quiet companion while you’re away, I’ll meet them where they’re at. I understand how important it is to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress free. I treat every animal like they’re my own with attention, care, and a commitment to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. As a Social Work student at Evergreen State College, I take online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule to focus on caring for pets. Outside of class, I dedicate my time to walking dogs, house sitting, and caring for pets while their families are away. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and it fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m reliable, communicative, and available throughout the day for check-ins, playtime, walks, and overnight stays. When im taking care of your pet, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your instructions closely to keep routines consistent, whether that means specific feeding times, crate use, medications, or special accommodations. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and mindful of your pet’s boundaries.
“Sidney did great with handling our dogs and cat through our "getting to know you" visits that we set up, and we agreed the last walk was not needed prior to the longer pet sitting, so "review" saying a dog walk was cancelled is not a negative on Sidney, just not necessary but she didn't cancel it electronically soon enough. She did a great job with the pets and will be happy to arrange for her to sit them again on future occasions.”
About: I have taken care of a variety of animals my entire life growing up on a farm. I have been a Licensed Veterinary Technician for 24 years. I work part-time remotely and part-time in a vet clinic. I am looking to supplement my income while still working my current part-time jobs. I work Monday through Wednesday remotely. Then I'm working Thursday and Friday in a Veterinary Hospital. I'm mostly available Friday night through early Thursday morning. I have 4 dogs, 2 outdoor cats, 2 horses, and 15 chickens. I can easily separate dogs as needed with a secure large backyard. Our entire property is 5 acres completely fenced and cross fenced. My husband can easily take care of our animals if I'm away from the house.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16 years old but have always had dogs of my own. I also worked as a veterinary tech throughout high school and have a lot of experience with all animals. I have 2 dogs of my own and 3 cats so as you can tell I just love being around animals. I will treat your baby/babies as if they’re my own. I have also fostered 5 kittens. I have flexibility as I work from home and only have a few calls per day. I have plenty of time to spend with your animals and give them all the love they need. We live in a new neighborhood right across from a lake with access to a beautiful park. We also have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for your animal to run around!
About: I have been caring for dogs since I can remember because I’ve always had dogs of my own. Currently I have 4 dogs that I help take care of daily. I have experience taking care of at minimum two dogs as far as the Seattle area for so far max of two weeks. I have also taken care of chickens at the same time so I am prepared in whatever may need to be done. I have no job and am available whenever as far north as Seattle if needed. I am available essentially 24/7 starting June 22nd, until august 16th. I have four dogs and therefore caring for a pet in my own home could prove difficult. However, I am comfortable staying in your house if needed or preferred. I always ask for specific instructions from the owner concerning whatever I need to be informed on because I am aware everyone treats their pet differently.
“I have a fur ball of energy of husky! that runs a lot and alisha handled him professionally! she takes care of my puppy like her own! highly recommend dog walker in the area! thank you for loving my dog 🥰”
About: As an experienced dog sitter, I go beyond basic care by truly understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I have a natural ability to read their body language and adapt to their moods, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s administering medications, following specific dietary plans, or providing enriching playtime and walks, I tailor my approach to each dog’s routine. My calm and attentive demeanor helps even the most anxious dogs feel at ease, and I maintain clear communication with pet owners for peace of mind. Having cared for my own senior Pomeranian, Zeus, until he was 14, I am particularly attuned to the special needs of older dogs, including administering medications and adjusting routines for their comfort. I currently have an year and a half year old Yellow Labrador Retriever named cooper, so well experienced with puppies I’m currently home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether your dog needs frequent potty breaks, long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication, or just extra cuddles and companionship, I’m able to be there consistently. I love getting outside for walks and making sure dogs stay mentally and physically happy while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal like they’re my own and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages, energy levels, and temperaments, including senior dogs and puppies. I always keep a close eye during walks, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment.

“David’s place was like a home away from home for our two dogs. They have different needs and personalities and David was an excellent caretaker for both of them. I hope to be able to have them visit again!”
“John was great with our shy pup, Bear. The photos and updates were wonderful. He was very easy to communicate with, friendly, and immediately put me at ease knowing he’s a long-time dog person. Our pup was exhausted when we got home so he got plenty of walks and all the fetch he could have wanted. I will gladly reach out to John again in the future!”
“Marlena and her family were loving, caring, and communicative during my dogs stay. They sent lots of photos, handled his food aggression with other dogs perfectly, and even helped with training during his stay! He stayed over the holidays so they let him open his presents as well. They truly love and care for animals and have training and experience to do so. I would highly recommend them!”
“Always love the way the dogs are cared for with Jeremy. Regular updates throughout the time they’re with him. No complaints. As long as he’s available, he’s always our go-to dog sitter!”
“Darby was an AMAZING sitter for our 1 year old Shepherd Mix. She sent daily updates of how Nova was doing. Her experience with working dogs showed through with the stimulation provided throughout Nova’s time there. Would highly recommend!”
“I had to leave my dog for a longer period than I ever have before, and I was really nervous about it. That completely changed when I met Jerrie! She was so kind and understanding about my anxiety, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout my trip, she communicated consistently and sent photos, which made such a difference and helped me relax knowing my dog was in good hands. When I picked her up, it was clear my dog was happy to see me, but also that she had truly bonded with Jerrie and loved her. That meant everything to me. I will absolutely be using Jerrie from now on whenever I need to leave my dog. Highly recommend!”
“Sheena and her family took such good care of our two dogs! Our pups wounded their paw pads prior to being dropped off and they took time to keep their feet clean and bandaged throughout their stay. We received pictures and updates everyday which made us feel so good knowing they were doing well. We really appreciate the care that they gave our babies and definitely recommend them!!!”
“James has a great outdoor space for the dogs! They sent updates of my dog running around with their other dogs! My dog had a lot of fun and was exhausted his first day home!”
“Lisa and her family were awesome! So grateful to have someone to look after my fur baby and I know he was loved and well cared for. Great communication and really loved receiving the photos and videos while we were away. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Maggie did a wonderful job with Summer. It was reassuring to know that Summer was in a safe and happy place while we were away. I got regular updates and I know by the smile on Summer's face in the pics that she was happy with Mochi! Definitely will be returning for my future sitting needs. Thank you Maggie!”
“Kristine was absolutely amazing! She was so caring and professional with my sweet boy, Marlie. She kept me in the loop with regular updates and pictures of Marlie while he was under her care. She even took a last-minute call for boarding because of a family event. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for boarding in Puyallup and the surrounding areas. I was completely satisfied with her service!”
“Bobbi took excellent care of our two pugs! She was a wonderful communicator, flexible with our schedule and our dog’s needs, and we just had no worries at all leaving our pups with her all week. Got lots of updates and it looked like they had a blast! Thank you so much!!!”
“The boys loved staying here. They have a great home and the other pups they watch are all great with my boys. They get ouside and get out a lot of energy. My pups came home sleepy and happy! 10/10 recommend.”
“Lauren and Dalton took great care of Triton. They were very friendly, responded to me quickly, and sent pictures every day to show me he was having fun with his new friends. I would definitely recommend them, and they'll be my first choice next time I'm in need of a dog sitter.”
“Jennifer did an amazing job with Silo. It was my first time leaving her overnight with a Rover, and Jennifer methodically acclimated Silo to her space, introduced to her to her own pets and made she had all the information she needed to take good care of her. It was very confidence inspiring, and I got tons of pictures of my pup while I was gone. Overall a great experience, I would definitely leave Si with Jennifer again anytime!”
