“Will definitely be using their services again! So trustworthy that I didn’t worry at all leaving them in our homes with our dogs. With an escape artist and a crazy puppy that’s no small feat, so very impressed all around. 10/10 and two thumbs up”
“Adrianna was great! She provided helpful updates and photos throughout her stay and left our home in great shape. Our cat was happy and well cared for. We plan to book with Adrianna again.”
“Maddy was a fantastic house/cat sitter for our two cuties. Her communication is excellent, she carefully followed our sort of OTT directions for feeding and we returned home to happy kitties and a sparkling house. Thank you, Maddy!”
“Katarina was communicative and helpful, I felt that my dogs were safe when I was out of town and service! She was so helpful at the last minute, and we will definitely book with her again!”
“Recently went on vacation and had the privilege of having Paulina available and booked for housesitting. She is wonderful with our pup and kitties. Paulina is also dependable and great at communicating updates and photos daily, which eased my mind. She showed our pets lots of love in our absence. I truly believe that our fur babies were in the best hands.”
About: I have experience pet sitting both cats and dogs, and I love getting to spend time with animals. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule and always try my best to make sure pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. I pay attention to details, keep things clean, and make sure to have clear and consistent communication with owners so they can feel comfortable, worry less while they’re away, and know their pets are being well taken care of. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for animals at home. I have a very open and flexible schedule. As a student, I have classes every other day, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available early mornings and late evenings. I have strong communication when it comes to scheduling and always respond clearly and in a timely way so owners know what to expect. I’m also able to handle day-of requests when possible. I am unable to provide a space for pets in my own home. Although when I visit I will take priority in keeping your home as I found it.
“Sophia came over the day before for a meet n greet and I immediately knew it would be a great fit. She stayed the night with my elderly dog and pup and gave them lots of love. I felt confident they were well taken care of. She sent pictures throughout her stay (which I love)! I plan on using her for over night stays in the future!”
“Summari was great! Super communication and preparation: she took the time to come a day early to meet Missi and learn her routine, sent pictures along the way and loved on my pup well. Thanks a million!”
“Liz was wonderful and my pup loves her!! She kept me updated with pictures and my pup was so comfortable with her. I will absolutely have Liz stay with my pup again!!”
“Autumn took such great care of Reagan while we traveled for six days. She stayed with Reagan in our home. She is very responsible, great at communicating and sharing updates. I loved receiving photos of Reagan while we were away. We will definitely use Autumn again in the future and Reagan absolutely loves her!”
“Halcyon took excellent care of our cat Samba, with patience, humor, and understanding. The photos she sent regularly showed a very happy kitty, and we were able to enjoy our trip thanks to Halcyon. Highly recommend her, and would definitely book with her again. Thanks Halcyon!”
“Eric was able to jump in fairly last minute to watch our girls when other accommodations fell through. Eric was a great communicator, logistics were easy and our girls had a great day with Eric. We are super thankful!”
“Chloe has been absolutely wonderful. She regularly stops by during the week to walk and care for our elderly pup, and has been so patient and caring while building a great bond with her. She recently stayed overnight with both our dog and bearded dragon, giving them amazing care, sending regular updates, and giving them lots of attention. We came home to happy pets and an immaculate house. She’s reliable, communicative, flexible, and someone we completely trust with our pets.”
“Matt was fantastic! My dog can be a little challenging at times, but Matt was determined to make Baxter comfortable with his stay and to become good buddies. He was communicative, took Bax on great walks, left the house clean, and my dog seemed so happy when I arrived home! Will definitely be using Matt in the future and highly recommend him to anyone searching for a great dog sitter!!”
About: I have provided care for dogs and cats for over 20+ years. I was the first to volunteer in my youth to "stay home" with the animals. I am thoughtful and reliable and understand the importance of a maintained routine. I approach all visits with patience, care, and professionalism. I communicate clearly with pet parents and adjust my care to match each fur baby's personality. Trust and confidentiality are my priorities. Flexible schedule! I am currently between employment commitments while I assist family members with life changes. I am organized and reliable and can accommodate regular visits as well as short-notice needs. I prioritize maintaining your pet's normal routine to reduce any stress and ensure comfort and safety. I follow care instructions closely and monitor behavior and overall well being. I communicate regularly and provide all requested updates. I treat the client's home with care, professionalism and discretion at all times. I am an active person and enjoy walks/runs.
“We had a wonderful housesitting experience with Dariya! While we were gone, we received daily photos/videos and highlights from the day. She incorporated our routines and training methods where applicable, and was attentive to the crews specific needs. The house was just as we left it and we came home to a happy group. We would recommend and rebook with Dariya!”
“Absolutely incredible experience with Taylor 🌺🐾 From the moment we left, we knew our fur babies were in loving, caring hands. The constant updates, attention to detail, and genuine aloha spirit gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, relaxed, and clearly spoiled pups. Mahalo nui loa for treating our pups like part of your own ʻohana! We would trust you again in a heartbeat and highly recommend you to anyone looking for world-class care for their furry family members. 🌴☀️🐶”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets since I can remember. My family has had three dogs, four chickens, and a cat in my life with different needs and routines. I love animals and am able to adapt my pet sitting style based on their needs. My pet sitting experience ranges from a miniature schnauzer puppy to an old farm dog retriever. I will be shadowing at a Physical Therapy clinic, as well as peer mentoring for summer courses, so I will most likely be gone during the day. I am a morning person, so I don’t mind having to wake up early to make sure the pets need to go to the bathroom or get fed. I can adapt my schedule to fit the needs of your pet pretty easily, I am able to juggle many commitments at once. I am very detail-oriented, so I can follow any routine or set of care instructions precisely. Pets can be like an extra family member, and I understand how it is important to find someone you can trust to take care of them like so. I approach every new pet I meet with love and care, and will make sure they are as comfortable as possible. If there are any special needs or time where a pet needs, I make sure to set alarms and reminders so I don’t forget. When I interact with a pet, I make sure to read their body language so I don’t overstep any boundaries they may have.
Western Washington University pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kaiya did a fabulous job caring for our home and fur babies! We absolutely loved the photos, communication, and the genuine love and attention she gave them while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We came home to happy pets and a well-cared-for home. Highly recommend Kaiya to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet and house sitter! 🐾❤️
Autumn did a great job housesitting for our 2 cats and dog! We returned and our home was cleaned up and looked like we left it, but cleaner! She took our dog to the dog park regularly and got our shy cats to get all snuggly with her. She provided great feedback the whole time and lots of pictures which we really appreciated! I will be using Autumn in the future when able and would highly recommend!
I could not ask for a better pet-sitter for my cat and my first time away from my dog. Leah came and met us beforehand, went for a walk, and got oriented to our little systems. Leah communicated all my pets needs while I was away and I came home to a couple of happy animals. I will definitely be reaching out to Leah with my future pet-sitting needs.
Oh my gosh, Verena was a lifesaver! She jumped in at the last minute and saved the day. She took amazing care of Polly and was very communicative when she had a health issue arise. My home was spotless and dog is happy, could ask for more. I will definitely have Verena come again!
Natalie is a wonderful dog/house sitter. She is very mature and responsible and can be relied on to do what she says she will. She is a great communicator who responds to texts/call promptly. Her love for animals is obvious, and my Boston loves her, especially posing for all the photos Natalie takes and sends while I'm away. She left my home in great shape. You won't find better!
Clover loved my pets like her own. She stayed for three night with three animals and I came back to well regulated pets and a house that looked like no guests had been there. Thank you clover for treating my home and animals with such kindness. I will be booking with you again!
Emilia was an incredible sitter for our two high energy dogs. She took care of our big malinois and our crazy puppy, taking them on multiple long walks and to the park, as well as giving them lots of love. She accommodated our very last minute request, working around her schedule for us. She followed our instructions and was super communicative, sending frequent pictures and updates on our pups. Your pets will be in very good hands with Emilia!
Madison was great! She took our three girls to the dog park, let them play how they all enjoy (either by running around, playing fetch, or just chewing on the ball), and sent pictures and videos. She even wore out our Belgian Malinois puppy, which is so hard to do. She’s amazing!!
