“Caroline was instantly adored by both my pups. They even went to the restroom more regularly, especially my older dog. Great communication and kind. I look forward to hiring her again! Thank you C!”


“Chandler was so awesome! She was able to accommodate last minute, and was very flexible when scheduling daily walks. She provided a ton of pictures and took such great care of my pup while I was gone. I would definitely recommend booking her for your pets needs!”

“Courtney was amazing with our dog. She was so patient and took time to build trust with him. Courtney was reliable, sent helpful detailed updates and photos. Would absolutely recommend her to care for your pet”

“Conner was great with my dog! He was super attentive, on time, sent me pics, and asked follow up questions if things were unclear. I highly recommend Conner and will book again!”

“Justin is reliable and communicated quickly and efficiently. He went out of his way to make sure Lili was taken care of even when he was given the wrong address on a miserable day in Seattle. I would definitely trust him with Lili again!”

“Paula was super responsive and showed up promptly for her walks with Brandy. We got very detailed cards after each walk and Brandy was a happy pup when we got home. We’ve already booked Paula for future walks and dog sitting!”

“Sabrina was so so great! We were able to set up a meet & greet beforehand where she got to know my pup. And she was extremely communicative during my pup’s walk and made sure to go above and beyond to mark sure he was comfortable. I got many photos and will definitely be reaching out to book again :)”

“Adrian is such a gem and my dog absolutely adores her! She is extremely trustworthy, responsible, reliable, helpful, and kind. She is excellent with communicating and posting sweet pictures and notes! We will definitely book with her again.”


About: I have been an animal lover since childhood and truly believe that pets are our 'younger brothers' who deserve nothing but respect and affection. For the past 5 years, I’ve been a dedicated dog owner myself, which taught me the nuances of daily care and intuition. Beyond my personal life, I have 3 years of professional experience as a Rover sitter under a previous account. I don’t just 'watch' dogs; I welcome them into my home as family members, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and respected every second you are away. I work a flexible hybrid schedule, splitting my time between the office and home. My typical workday starts early at 6:00 AM and ends by 2:30 PM, though I often finish a couple of hours earlier. This early schedule is perfect for pet care because it means I am home for the majority of the day. On days I work from home, we are together 24/7. On office days, the pets are only alone for a short period before I return to dedicate my afternoon to them. Our typical walking routine includes: Morning: A refreshing early walk to kickstart the day. Mid-afternoon: A long, high-energy walk right after I finish work. Evening: A medium-length stroll before bedtime to ensure everyone is relaxed and ready for sleep. On weekends, we love to go on adventures! We frequently visit local parks to enjoy the fresh air and give the dogs plenty of space to explore. Your pet will fit right into our active and attentive daily rhythm. Creating a secure and stress-free environment is my top priority. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them, I ensure they feel like a true member of the family. A Comfortable Home Environment: Choice of Sleeping: Every guest has a dedicated "safe place" to retreat to, but I believe in total comfort. Pets are more than welcome to snuggle up in bed with me if that’s where they feel most secure and happy! Personal Space: To prevent any stress during mealtimes, each pet has their own designated station for food and fresh water. Play & Mental Stimulation: I dedicate one-on-one time to every pet for interactive play and engagement. We have a huge variety of toys to keep them entertained! Treats & Care: I love spoiling my guests with tasty treats, though I am very strict about checking for allergies or specific dietary instructions from owners first. Safety & Peace of Mind: Because I have a small, cat-friendly dog of my own, my home is already set up to be a pet-safe zone. I am very attentive to body language and ensure that all interactions between animals are supervised and positive. You can expect regular photo updates and messages so you can see exactly how much fun your pet is having!
“Erica has been a wonderful dog walker for my senior dog. She is communicative with me and attentive to my dogs needs. My pup looks forward to her daily walks with Erica and I look forward to the photos of her adventures.”

“Stephanie is great! She's very calm and collected and you can tell right away she has a lot of valuable experience with dogs. After their first walk, I can already tell my dog Louie is in love with her!!”

“Carissa did an excellent job with our dog, George. She gave him a proper walk on relatively short notice, gave timely updates, and treated him well! Definitely recommend Carissa to anyone in need of a dog walker!”

“Reza did our great job walking our dog Denali. He is very communicative and easy to coordinate with! He takes especially great pictures of our pup on his walks.”

“Victoria is a great communicator and does a great job caring for my dog. She is great at rolling with the punches not matter what my dogs mood is, sometimes she wants to walk sometimes she wants to lay in the sun and Victoria is great at accommodating it all. She also is flexible with my random schedule changes!”

“Christina is Ly go to walker when I need one for my little old man of a dog! She was always on time and made sure he peed and pooped and got a little water and put him safely back in his crate after every walk! Look forward to continuing to use her!!”
“Louis has been a reliable consistent dog walker for our pup. He is very communicative and takes the best photos of our pup. He is quite flexible with time and we appreciate him!”


“Kinsley is great! She took the extra time to make sure my pups felt comfortable before taking them for a long walk! I am very particular with whom I trust my dogs with, and felt very at ease and comfortable having Kinsey in my home. She is very professional and put together a nice post-walk report card with a summary and pictures of my pups on their walk. Overall, I would highly recommend Kinsley for dog walking services!”

Ana really saved us with a last minute booking! She did an incredible job with our chaotic golden retriever puppy and was a true expert with her. She sent the most thoughtful pictures while I was at work and was so communicative. We'll absolutely be booking with her again- thank you so much Ana!

Sabrina is the best! My pup is always SO excited to see her, and she always goes above and beyond what she needs to do to make sure he is well taken care of. And I love how many photos she sends when she drops by for a walk. She’s my go-to when I need someone to help with my pup!

Rylie was so lovely to work with! Super responsive and trustworthy, we had her come to our house while we were out of town to walk Sunny and she did a lovely job. She took Sunny on epic walks and made us feel like our girl was well taken care of. Will gladly work with her again!

Cece is a gem! I think Oliver had the best walk of his life with her. She came exactly on time, spent such good time with him, let him meet neighbors (he's a bit of a local celebrity), and sent amazing photos. His absolute joy was so obvious. Thank you, Cece! We can't wait to have you walk Oliver again.

Katie is awesome!!! I haven’t used Rover much and was a bit hesitant but needed to get my girls out while I had an unexpected shift. She was prompt with accepting the request, great with my babies, and sent pictures so I could see them while I’m at work. Thank you, Katie!
