“This is the place for your pet if you are looking for a worry free time away! Maggie loves her time with Christine and Steven and we know she's safe, loved and well cared for even when we are out of cell and internet service. Maggie gets pampered with walks and play time and maybe even treats she doesn't get at home. She shows she loves being with Christine and Stevem because when we take her to them and make the last turn to their house, she gets really excited!”


“Jennifer took such great care of our puppy and had amazing communication! She sent photos and videos to update us and kept us informed throughout the day of how she was doing. It really gave us such peace of mind. We would love to book with her again in the future!”


“Thank you for so much for taking great care of her baby Jacko! We will be definitely booking again in the future. We are glad you found margaret took great care of our dog child.”


“I am so happy I found Jocelyn! My two small dogs had a blast and were so calm when I picked them up. She was responsible, communicative, kind and compassionate. As we all know, finding a person we can trust to take care of our beloved pets is invaluable. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.”


“Chris is 10/10! I always feel so comfortable knowing our baby is with him when we're away! She's happy, makes herself right at home and he is the best about being available and providing updates! As long as he'll have us, we'll always use Chris for pet sitting! You won't worry about a thing!”


“Barry is wonderful! Like many pet owners, we were so nervous leaving our almost 14 year old Callie behind for a few days. However, within our first meet and greet with Barry and Shaka we were comfortable, knowing Callie would be in good hands. Barry sent daily updates and pictures everyday. Allowing us to be more at ease on our trip. Communication was great as he was quick to respond and was very flexible with our drop off time, when we were running behind. Barry has experience with senior dogs, he was kind and understanding with all of Callie’s feeding and meds instructions. We could tell, Callie really enjoyed all the smells in the garden and the calm setting. We can’t say enough, other than we are so glad we found Barry and we would highly recommend him.”


“She is so nice and my dog loved her! She took care of her very well and sent lots of pictures and videos. I will rebook if I ever need sitting again.”


“Jared did great over the week we boarded Tofu. Friendly, positive, welcoming, affable during our meet/greet. We were kept regularly updated via text and photos, which we appreciated. Jared has vet tech experience, which has added value. There are several cats and a big lovable dog in his home, which Tofu reportedly coexisted well (something with Tofu we can never be 100% sure about! =). We would definitely consider Jared's services in the future.”


About: Hello! I'm Fran, a passionate dog lover and guardian with decades of experience in in-home doggie daycare. I care for your beloved dog while you're on holiday, providing them with a holiday of their own. I believe we don't 'own' our pets; we're their guardians, ensuring they're loved, safe, happy, and healthy. I've hosted dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. Each dog has a unique story and personality, and I love getting to know them and watching them bloom as they explore their surroundings. I understand schedules vary and sometimes life presents surprises where we need to find someone to care for our beloved pup at the last minute. I work remotely with a flexible schedule. Let me help you when you need it most. Every day, I plan activities to engage their brains and exercise their bodies, often involving adventures through the neighborhood, trips to the fenced dog park, and visits to the river on hot days. At the end of the day, we enjoy healthy treats that I prepare myself, which also engage their brains and senses. I live in Vancouver, Washington, with my 8-year-old black lab mix, Murphy, who loves humans and other dogs and is non-aggressive. My home is well-maintained with a large deck where dogs can play and relax.I work from home which means your 'kids' are never left alone for long periods.

“Beverly is an outstanding sitter! Her communication was top notch, she has a warm and welcoming energy, and our dog came home tired and happy. I hope she’ll be available the next time we leave town! 🤞🏼”



“Holly and her whole family went above and beyond for my dog's extended stay with them. Updates were frequent, and she was returned happy and healthy to me. Very pleased with our experience - would highly recommend.”


“Natalia did an awesome job with my dog Harley. She sent me video updates throughout his stay and was very communicative. From the videos I was sent it looks like he had a great time. If you need someone to watch your pup, I would definitely recommend Natalia. Thank you!”


“Colleen was very responsive, kind and flexible. I came back to a well taken care of dog. She was very thoughtful towards him and his needs. He has separation anxiety, so I was concerned but she handled it like a pro. She made sure I knew what was going on through the visor so I wasn’t worried.”


“Kirsten went above and beyond for our dog during our first stay. She helped with some basic first aid after I stupidly cut our dog’s nails too short right before our drop off. She also treated our dog (and her doggy friends) to a special treat (Salt N Straw pup cup- IYKYK) on her birthday! I would recommend Kirsten any day!”


“Vivian was super sweet and great with my old lady, Chloe! She had a room just for her and send me photo updates during her short stay. I would definitely recommend her to watch your pups.”


“Sylvia and her partner Micheal provided a wonderful boarding experience! They had different schedule options for me to choose from and I got to pick what schedule worked for my pet, and my budget. Thank you both so much!! Will definitely board with them again ?”


“Steve and his dogs were great with my Peanut. She was well cared for and I greatly appreciated the photos and updates Steve provided. This was a WONDERFUL experience and I highly recommend Steve!”


“Paul and Arnel treated our little old man like a king, and sent the photos to back it up. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing the pup was WELL taken care of. Five stars, highly recommend. Thank you guys!!”


“Received updates pics and concern for my dog who had some Anxiety but overall he was happy when picked up and returned in a good mood. Thank you for caring for B!”

Vancouver pet parents share their Rover experiences
Acoya was communicative, thoughtful, and really made us feel at ease leaving our puppy with her. Watching a puppy isn’t easy and Acoya was able to work through adjustments and sent pictures without us asking to keep us at ease. Highly recommended.

Lauren and Godfrey will always be our number one choice to watch Tato! They not only take wonderful care of Tato, but they also try to train him which is so kind. Their corgi Sebastian is also so sweet! Thanks again!!

Jessie and her husband did an amazing job caring for our two small dogs! I really appreciated the regular check-ins and photos…especially when she asked for extra tips to keep our Frenchie comfy during the heatwave. She was also incredibly gracious when we needed to extend the stay by a day on short notice. Highly recommend!

Cash had a great time with Kelsie and got to play with her dog and the other dogs she was sitting for. I would recommend and will be booking again with Kelsie when needed.

Haleigh took wonderful care of our dog Aika while we were away for over two weeks, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the beginning, she was communicative, friendly, and incredibly attentive. We got frequent updates and adorable photos that gave us peace of mind and made us smile every day. Haleigh clearly treated Aika like part of the family. She made her feel at home, kept a close eye on her eating habits, and paid attention to all the little details we shared, like food preferences and behavior. She was also super responsive and flexible with pick-up/drop-off times, which we really appreciated. It’s not easy leaving your pet behind, but knowing Aika was with someone as kind, responsible, and caring as Haleigh made all the difference. We’ll absolutely be reaching out again, and we recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can fully trust.

Ryan took such great care of my pup, Cooper, for a fairly lengthy stay. He was quick to respond and sent me regular updates/pics, which I really appreciated. He even went out of his way to meet me closer to the airport for pickup. 10/10, I’d recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a Rover in the Vancouver Area.

Elaine was great at taking care of my dog. I was away for 2 weeks on a trip and my usual sitter could not watch her for one of the weeks. Elaine kept me informed and sent some photos. Definitely would recommend.

Carson was great with our large St. Bernard Bubbles. He was sending regular updates with photos which offered peace of mind for us since we don’t regularly leave Bubbles with new friends. We will definitely be reaching out to Carson for future boarding.

Roo had a great time with Sean! She got to play in the water, have a play date with another dog, and go on walks all while prioritizing her safety. I picked her up and she was happy, sleepy, and well taken care of.

Jamie and Deb were wonderful, they caught on pretty quickly to Esther’s quirkiness and orneriness and didn’t let her run the show. They were caring and sent daily pictures and updates, she even got baths, she came home smelling clean and fresh! We will not hesitate to use them again to take care of Esther. Thank you both so very much.

Abigaile was really sweet with Chewie. She took him on multiple walks and sent pics of him. I would recommend her as a sitter for your pups!

Wow! She's amazing! Zeegan was very happy hanging out with Stefani and the other pooches! So fun! I highly recommend Stefani. She's a dog whisperer!!

Jessica was so patient and kind with our puppy who has been experiencing some anxiety around meeting people and other dogs. She sent us such cute updates and our puppy immediately was calm with her and jumped right in her lap after only a few minutes, which I’ve never seen him do with anyone! Super communicative and kind and seriously cares about your fur baby! 10/10

Roshan is the BEST! She was able to take a last minute booking on Mother’s Day weekend which was such a life saver to my procrastination. Whenever I need a sitter she will forever be my #1 go to. Love her, love her home set up (attached to a dog park) she sends heathy dog food recipes & amazing videos & pictures during the whole duration of my puppy’s stay which only showed how loved and cared for my dog was 10/10 recommend her.

Natalie has watched Zuri twice now, and both times have been fantastic. Really communicative, frequent updates, friendly, what more could you ask for? 😀

Karen was great! Kept us really informed throughout with texts, pictures and videos. She was so understanding when my pups anxiety got the best of her and she became a bit of a menace getting into food. Would absolutely book Karen again!

Taylor took great care of our pups. They were walked and snuggled everyday. It was wonderful to know they were so happy while we were away.

Jessica was great with our anxious and needy dog. She communicated quickly when things occurred and made sure Leo’s wellbeing was prioritized. She takes her own dogs to the park and on many walks a day, so I knew our dog was being well taken care of.
