“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!”
“Maren, Johnathon and their entire family are the best sitters my dogs have ever had! They made sure Luna and Coco were well cared for and happy. My daughters and I appreciated seeing the photos and regular reports on how my dogs were doing, too. They went above and beyond, helping Coco overcome her fear of walking on hard floors! They are truly 'Dog Whisperers'! Luna and Coco want me to take another trip so they can return and visit their new friends! Maureen”
“Jamie has watched Honey over night a few times now, she is absolutely wonderful with her and truly has a warming heart for animals. She is great with updating me throughout honey’s stay during the evening while I am at work, and will send me pictures. She has a big yard for dogs to run and play, and its fenced and gated. Jamie is so kind, I give her 5 stars, and I 100% recommend her to watch over your fur babies.”
“John was fabulous and took lovely care of our dog. Pictures and updates were appreciated. He let us know how she was becoming comfortable at his home and she loved the daily walks.”
“She is absolutely the best Rover. Daisy is now part of the family, she loves going to stay and has made herself at home. I love all the photo updates. If you have a small dog I cannot recommend Diahann enough. Five Star care always”
“Marlena looked after our 2 dogs one of which is blind, while we explored the park, she was incredible! Very friendly and caring, provided updates and pictures throughout the day and took great care of our babies!”
“What a great experience! Barbara really kept me well informed and sent regular updates with pics of how well Hank was doing. Thank you so much for everything and we look forward to you keeping our little guy again!”
“Jeremy is great with both of our dogs! They are young and full of energy and they came home happy and well cared for after this stay! I got lots of pics and quick updates and I felt great about leaving them with him! We'll definitely book again!”
“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 is the best. I thought I had booked, but I hadn’t quite done it. Darby accommodated us on basically no notice at all. Our dogs love going to Darby’s and I love feeling 110% unworried about them and knowing they are well cared for.”
“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.”
“Jerrie was a lifesaver, and the best sitter for my puppy. Her home is the perfect place for a dog with enough outdoor space to run around. Don't leave your dog at a kennel, call Jerrie.”
“Absolutely fantastic! We were in a crunch and had to leave within an hour and return the next day and needed a sitter for our Pug, Milkshake. Tonya was super fast in responding and setting us up to bring Milkshake over. She updated us frequently on Milkshakes silly antics and was very thoughtful with her details. I’m also an animal caretaker and vet tech and would recommend Tonya to everyone! ♥️”
“This is our second time with Sheena and she continues to amaze us with her level of care! This time Koko stayed for two weeks, and I received a message update with photos/videos on Koko's wellbeing at least once a day. Sheena and her family continue to show Koko patience and love with her many quirks and ensures Koko is comfortable as well. I very much recommend trusting Sheena with your dog-sitting needs!”
“Soon is my go to sitter, if I want my pups to be spoiled! Soon and her family are amazing sitters! I highly recommend her. She is great with sending pictures and regular updates. A+ service and my pups left well cared for and happy!”
“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.”
“Awesome, Justin & Sheena were amazing providers and my dog Snow felt at home. I highly recommend the use of their services, I am definitely a repeat customer and I know Snow look forward to future time with Rocky & Bow!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“My dogs had a blast with James. He communicated well with us and double checked just to make sure that he was feeding them on the right schedule. Big back yard and when I picked up my dogs they were exhausted from all the playing outside. Thanks again and hope to board with you again in the future!”

Yelm dog parents share their Rover experiences
The best dog sitters always willing to work with us, and our dogs both love going there. It's hard to get them back home. Lots of pictures and great communication. And willing to go out of their way to meet our needs. I just wish we could take them with us when we move.
Mikayla and Skyler was exceptional from start to finish. They were punctual, communicative, and followed all care instructions perfectly. It was clear they went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable and happy. We returned home to a relaxed, well cared pup. I would absolutely recommend their services.
