“Ari is simply awesome! My dog stays with my parents when I have to work and my mom says my dog gets soooo excited once she sees Ari’s car pull up. Just as excited as when we pulll up. Makes me so happy and at ease that my dog is getting her needs met when away”


About: 【Pet Care Experience】 I care for every animal as if they were my own and always strive to make them feel safe, seen, and loved. I was actively involved in an animal protection society for 3 years, where I helped rescue and foster sick or abused cats and dogs. In August 2022, my friends and I discovered 42 abandoned breeding cats in a closed pet store in Guangzhou—we organized their rescue and successfully found homes for them. I personally fostered and rehomed 5 cats and 2 dogs. Currently, I volunteer at a local shelter 1–3 shifts a week, helping with dog walking, kennel cleaning, and matching pets with potential adopters. My experiences have allowed me to work closely with animals of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. ———————————————— 【Schedule】 I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the care and attention they deserve. I usually offer drop-in visits and dog walks between 6:30am and 6:30pm. If my calendar shows availability, you’re more than welcome to book. I truly enjoy spending time with pets and will care for yours with lots of love and attention. Before booking, we’ll set up a meet & greet so I can get to know your pets better and make sure everything goes smoothly. ❤️ ———————————————— 【Safety, Trust & Environment 】 I understand that being away from your pets can sometimes feel difficult. I provide updates with photos and care details through the Rover card after each visit. If you’d also like video updates, just let me know and I’ll be happy to send them separately, helping you stay close and reassured while you’re away.☺️ While I don’t host pets in my home, I’m here to care for your pets right where they feel most comfortable. Whether they need companionship, hand feeding, medication, or special attention, I’ll look after them with patience and genuine care. ————————————————

About: I have a deep well of patience, understanding and affection for your pet. When I am interacting with a dog or cat, they recieve my sole and loving attention. I can't wait to meet yours! I am a retired teacher so I have a lot of management skills and am supremely responsible. I am a retired teacher so I have a ton of time. I am moving from managing teen agers to having loving interactions with pets. I am a single woman in my 50's with no pets of my own, so I am very available to care for your animals. Since I have been back in the USA after teaching overseas for years, I have taken care of and house sat for many people who were pleased with my services. I would love to get to know your animals and make them feel safe and secure while you are gone!

About: I've been a pet lover since I was a kid. I started with frogs, lizards and snakes, and graduated to cats and dogs. Until I was able to have dogs of my own, I spent over 10 years pet-sitting for friends and family, volunteering in animal shelters, and have even worked in 2 seperate doggy daycares. My MO is always long walks and lots of attention. I have 2 dogs of my own, a cumulative 17 years of pet raising experience. I have experience caring for sick pets and administering medication both orally and subcutaneously. I've had my pups since they were young and would consider them very well trained. If you're looking to work on certain behaviors, I can absolutely work on that during their stay. I have a fenced yard, a safe neighborhood for long walks, and for longer stays, expect your dog to enjoy a nice hike! I mostly work from home, so your dog(s) would never be alone and would have access to my fully fenced backyard whenever they want. During the week, I can do a long walk during my lunch break, and another after work. Weekends I tend to go hiking, so if your pup enjoys nature, they will for sure have a great time. My yard is fully fenced, and I have 2 friendly dogs. Safety is paramount, so dogs would be supervised while in the yard together. If your dog requires a crate, I have both a plastic and soft sided kennel for indoors.

About: Hi there! I’m Sophia. I’m passionate about providing excellent care for your pets. With experience volunteering at a dog shelter and assisting at a farm in Germany, I’ve developed a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs. My main responsibilities included walking dogs and preparing them to accompany trail rides, which taught me how to keep pups active, stimulated, and happy. For the past two years, I’ve expanded into in-home pet sitting, caring for dogs and cats ! Because I’m currently studying for my Computer Science degree remotely, I have the flexibility to stay with your pets all day—perfect for animals who need extra companionship or frequent care. You can trust me to care for your pets as if they were my own. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative—you’ll receive regular updates about your pet’s well-being while you’re away, I also love taking pictures of pets and love sharing them with their fur parents :) Whether it’s following feeding schedules, administering medication, or just providing company, I’m committed to keeping your pet comfortable and happy. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and full-time pet sitting tailored to your pet’s needs. Let me know how I can help! I’m currently 90% at home cause I can do my degree from home , so I’d love to fill my weeks meeting some new fur friends and taking care of them As a house sitter, I stay in your home to provide consistent care, maintaining your pet’s routine to avoid confusion. For drop-ins, I ensure feeding, playtime, and litter box cleaning are done on schedule. For dog walking, I stick to their usual routes and energy needs. Responsible and attentive, I prioritize your pet’s comfort and well-being.

About: With over 30 years of experience as a pet owner of both cats and dogs, I’ve naturally transitioned into pet sitting and house sitting for others—starting with friends and family, and growing through word of mouth to care for pets of friends of friends. I’m a lifelong animal lover who takes pride in providing loving, reliable care for pets of all kinds. Whether it’s a short visit or a long-term stay, I follow instructions carefully, maintain a clean and tidy environment, and prioritize clear, consistent communication with pet owners for total peace of mind. I currently work weekends only 12-8pm in Olympia so I am free around those hours and all week long! I am available for drop ins as well as overnight stays. I take great pride in caring for my 11-year-old rescue cat in my apartment, creating a calm and nurturing environment tailored to her needs. From maintaining a clean, cozy space to providing regular meals, playtime, and gentle affection, I ensure she feels secure and loved every day. This same level of attentiveness and compassion extends to the pets I care for in other people’s homes. I prioritize each animal’s comfort and routine, while respecting the owner's space and preferences, fostering a sense of safety and trust. Whether it's feeding, administering medication, or offering companionship, I approach every pet with patience, reliability, and genuine care.

“Paige has been awesome. Very dependable and our Basset, Maddie loves her walks with Paige. I booked a couple of days to start while my wife was hospitalized and I was spending long hours there. I have now booked a second week, two walks a day because Paige has proven to be excellent!”

“Helena is such a pro!!! We have 2 large dogs, one of which is reactive. Her calm demeanor and positive reinforcement resulted in a great visit and walk. She was even able to take him on the trails near own home. Highly recommend!”



About: Hey there, my name's Beka and I love critters of all shapes and sizes! Pups hold a special place in my heart. I raised and trained several dogs growing up, and I've spent a lot of time petsitting breeds of various sizes and energy levels throughout the years. That work has included care for litters of young pit puppies, sitting and assisting in the training of a deaf Australian shepherd pup, plus walking dogs of all ages and providing more laid back companionship to elderly canines. I'm comfortable and competent administering medicine and eager to learn the individual needs of your dog. Currently, I live a house with 3 cats and a frog. Other animals I've 'sat' include cats, rats, snakes, and chickens. There's no critter I wouldn't want to meet! Currently I work part time as a Barista and have mostly open availability Sunday through Thursday. If you work long office hours and need someone to get your pal out to stretch their legs, we could be a great fit! Please note that on workdays (thru-sat) I am not available 7:30am-4pm. I take a conscientious approach to house and pet sitting. Your home is your personal space and it's important to me that you feel respected.

About: I have taken care of all types of dogs since I could remember! I’ve never known life without a furry companion by my side and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I just moved to the area with my two Australian Shepards and a cat. My schedule is completely open right now and I’d love to take your furry friend on an adventure while we explore our new neighborhood! I have a fenced in backyard that backs up to nature trails. We have pet cameras so we can always keep a watchful eye on the animals and we love walking around and exploring new areas! I can really provide whatever environment your dog/cat will do best in!

“Ashley was great! She came over for an initial walk to meet our pup while we were home, at our request, before starting weekly walks during the work day. She responded very promptly and was polite and flexible. Our dog was very happy after the walk and we are very excited to keep working with Ashley.”


About: I’ve taken care of my friend’s pets for a bit now. I love taking them on walks, give them food, play with them and give them lots of love and attention. I had some experience with puppies and older dogs. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I'm currently working part-time as a caregiver for my father, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule. I’m confident I can easily accommodate your pet’s needs and routines, whether that’s daily walks, feedings, or any special care required. While I’m currently unable to host pets in my own home, I take great care in ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m happy to meet with you beforehand so you can get to know me and feel confident about entrusting me with your pet—especially for overnight stays or extended care. I treat every pet like family, following their routine closely and always prioritizing their well-being.

About: New to Rover but, with over a decade of experience as a trusted dog sitter, I have had the privilege of caring for countless furry companions, including those belonging to neighbors, friends, and coworkers. From goofy poodles (like my own) to energetic vizsla's, I've had the pleasure of nurturing a diverse range of breeds and personalities. My commitment to building strong relationships with both pets and their owners has led to countless referrals and repeat clients, solidifying my reputation as a go-to sitter in the area. I prioritize safety, exercise, and lots of cuddles!! I have a work schedule that gives me flexibility Thursdays and Fridays so I’m able to provide services for up to 4 days at a time :) I don’t have a pet friendly rental home so I prefer to care for pets at the clients home. This is what I’ve normally done for friends and family over the years. Plus pets seem more comfy in their own homes!

“Jeffrey was great about communication, being on time, and taking good care or our puppy Kluska. Will definitely hire him again when we need some extra help.”


Kirsten B.
“Kirsten is amazing with my dog Violet who can often be nervous with sitters. Kirsten’s calm and loving personality makes Violet comfortable right away and I always feel confident that Violet is in good hands. Kirsten is a good communicator and sends pictures and updates and always leaves things clean and exactly as I left them if not better. Highly recommend her for your pets!”


Deidre H.Star Sitter
“Deidre is an exceptional pet caregiver! She has taken care of my dog, Sam — a very high-energy pointer — with so much love, patience, and attention over the years. Sam absolutely adores spending time with her and her friendly pups. It gives me great peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. What really sets Deidre apart is how thoughtful and intentional she is with all animals in her care. She’s particular about her own dogs, which means she expects and upholds that same level of care for yours. You can trust that she will follow every instruction to a T — and then some. I completely trust Deidre, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and responsible pet sitter.”

Simonne G.
“There’s a million things that could best describe Simonne: One might say she’s fun, other’s might say she’s caring, those that know her personally will say she’s loving; What differentiates her the most, in my opinion, is that she’s a one in a million. What do I mean by that? In terms of dogs, we all want the best for our furry family member - in terms of Simonne, I truly believe she can provide that. A home away from home? That’s Simonne; A friend who can turn that frown upside down? That’s Simonne. As a dog owner myself, I can be honest about how extremely picky I am about the person I entrust my dog with. With Simonne, I don’t have to worry about being picky - she just gets it. She works hard to fit into the already set dynamic. Changing nothing, just enhancing everything. Your dog will love her, you will love her, and more importantly, a relationship will be established - one that you and your furry friend will appreciate and cherish for a long time. Now more about Simonne as a person: I have never met anyone more hardworking as her. She manages to make things work, doesn’t matter what her load is. She is a trusted friend, and with her, I can confide most things without fear of being judged. She cares; and I know that’s common in a lot of people, but Simonne does truly care - a care that you not only see, but feel as well. We are lucky to have her on this planet.”
