House Sitting Western Washington University

“Madison is an excellent sitter! She stayed at our home for 7 days with our two very large and excitable dogs. This is the longest we have ever been away from them in the almost 9 years we’ve had them. We were very anxious as these dogs are our children. Madison was thorough and went above and beyond to make sure that us and our boys had a good experience. She did brushing, gave medication and helped them brush up on some of their training skills. The boys loved her, and her updates gave us great peace of mind. She left our house very tidy, and was considerate of our space. This was my first experience with rover, and Madison knocked it out of the park. Tucker and Toby can’t wait to have her back next time. 100/10 recommend Madison for your furry friends. ❤️”

“Rene did a wonderful job watching my two dogs while I was gone. Both dogs seemed very happy and liked to be around her and the house was in great shape. I will definitely use her again.!!”

About: I have grown up in a house full of cats and dogs, so I am no stranger to the late night zoomies or hairball. I have dog and cat sit my whole life and still love it! I am currently unemployed and doing side hustles, I have the time to dog walk, cat sit and stay the night if needed! I would love to take care of your pets! I live in a spacious apartment but prefer to pet sit at the clients place. I have one cat at home and have raised her since she kitten.

“I believe Melia has been Moose’s favorite sitter of all time, I don’t even think he missed me. She is very attentive to all the small nuances and went above and beyond to me you feel comfortable taking a trip away from my lil man. could not recommend enough…seriously, you’re lucky if she is free”

“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!!”

“Skyler is top notch. Right from the start, communication was great. Unfortunately my dog decided to be a big jack@$$. He acted up right as I was packing to leave but petting on my bed. He ended up nipping Skylar and being a grumpface, making her job more difficult. She handled it like a pro and even given the option to finish the stay, with minor adjustments she gladly continued. I very much appreciated her commitment. 5 stars from me!”

“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!”

“Paulina is a fantastic animal care provider! She recently watched our lab mix and cat while we were on vacation. From the beginning Paulina was an attentive listener and all-around strong communicator. During our initial meet-and-greet it was obvious that she has a way with animals- both of our fur babies took to her instantly :) While we were away on our trip, Paulina would keep us updated with texts/photos and it always reassuring to see how much the fun the furry ones were having. We have already booked her for next trip in a few months and we would highly recommend her services to any of our friends in the area. 5 stars!”

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, dogs that have complicated medical needs to dogs that are lax and can do everything on their own. I’ve always grown up with cats as well as a plethora of other animals including fish, lizards, birds, and frogs. I’ve housesat for multiple people over the years and have received much positive feedback! I’m working evening at a restaurant from 3pm to 8pm, so it doesn’t cause much shift in my capability to care for your furry friends! I am more than happy to stay at your place in caring for your pets or if easier/preferred, I can stop by intermittently throughout the day to give your pet the care it needs.

“Sydney is very kind and great with Tanuki! This is her third time sitting Tanuki and he really likes his company. She always makes sure to keep me updated with the pics! Thanks Sydney!”

“Shyla did a great job taking care of our boys and the house. She was very communicative and sent us pics of the dogs over the course of our trip. We would definitely have her over to watch them again!”

“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!”

“Sammari did a great job of taking care of our fur baby and sending daily pictures and video while we were traveling. She even helped with watering our plants. She was great!”

About: As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else's care. I've personally raised and cared for animals since I was a kid. These pets have included cockatiels, lizards, dogs and cats of all ages. This experience gives me knowledge in order to provide age-specific care, whether that means longer walk/ play time or gentle attention and medication support for seniors. I am flexible with my schedule due to a work from home schedule. This means more time to play and care for your pups! I am availability typically Monday- Thursday but will update my Rover calendar as frequently as possible to reflect an accurate schedule. I like to send a lot of photos and videos in order to keep you updated and feel at ease (Unless you ask me not to!) One thing that really helps things go smoothly is a detailed schedule & notes (written or typed) for your pet if they have any. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to keep your pup safe and happy.

“Haley was so great with communication and feedback while I was gone for the week, and both my cat and dog act as though I haven’t even been away. It was such an ease knowing they were well taken care of.”

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.

“Melissa was great! She was quick to respond, was super positive and friendly, gave us updates throughout the day with photos, and did everything we asked! Whiskey loved her and we’ll definitely book her again.”

“We have some anxious dogs who can take a while to warm up. Charles was great with them, giving them time, being extra patient, but still loving and friendly when meeting them. He came for a meeting and spent time letting them get comfortable with him. He sent updates and photos, and when we got home, the house looked extra nice and the pets were happy and obviously well cared for. I will hire him again and recommend him highly.”

Laura A.

“Angela took great care of our animals while we were gone for over a week. She handled daily medications for our cats. The house looked great when we got back and the dogs and cats were clearly well take care of. We would definitely like for her to come stay with them again!”
