About: Hi, my name is Kaitlin, and I am eager to help you care for your fur-baby. Let me provide you with peace of mind with my personalized care. I am available for dog walks, playdates, and overnight visits. I know there is no one-size-fits-all approach to pet care, and you can count on my commitment to treating your pets as the unique individuals they are. I understand that patience, respect, and consistency are the keys to ensuring that your fur-babies feel loved and secure. Let’s connect, I hope I get to spoil your babies <3 Pet Sitter by day, Bartender by night! My goal is to transition out of the bar industry, but I am not quite there yet. Currently I am available any day of the week until about 3pm. I am available after 3pm everyday with the exception of Thursday and Saturday nights where I hustle to my local dive bar and pour a few drinks for my less furry friends. I live in a one pet only apartment, but don't worry I have a car and can come to you! I am as happy running down a long trail with your furry friends as I am sitting on the couch and binging the latest HBO show, you know, if physical activity isn't their thing. I abide by the campsite rule, and will leave your home better then I found it. You can count on me to treat your pets and your home like they were my own.

About: I am a reliable and responsible dog parent. I love love dogs. I have been taking care of dogs for the past 10 years and I’ve always had dogs growing up. I have a terrier mix called Betty that I adopted 6 years ago during the pandemic. I work from home so she is very happy and gets lots attention and walks. I’m currently working from home so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup and give them the love and attention they need. I will take your dog on lots of walks. I have a crate for when I need to leave the dog for a short time if sitting at my home. If sitting at dogs home it will depend on the home and dog needs.

About: I live in a single family home in Burien with my husband Tam. We have no children or any animals. We both love dogs and HAD a Great Dane and a Shih Tzu/Chihuahua mix both who have since passed on so now we can care for your dog. 🙂 **We host pets from the same household and only up to 2 at a time so we can pay extra attention to them. **We are not a dog boarding place and prefer quality over quantity. **Your dog will always be supervised by either Tam or myself and never left alone. **Your dog is welcomed on our furniture and in the bed if they desire. We are very active people in our garden and enjoy growing fruits and vegetables. We go for walks daily and enjoy having your dog with us on our walks. We are available every day as we are pretty minimalistic people so we can focus on your pets needs and their routine. We have a fenced in yard for your pet to explore or a cozy home for them to relax in and be pampered. Our home is clean, clutter free, hard wood and tile floors, and non-smoking. We live very close to the airport (less than 10 minutes). I have many years of experience sitting and caring for dogs and humans (previous career in healthcare). I'm a very patient and free spirited person with a lifestyle that can allow me to care for your pet safely, professionally, and with passion. Please inquire anytime if you have any questions. **Dog Boarding is based on a 24 hour period. **If your drop off time and pick up time exceed the boarding hours, additional day care rates will apply. Our home is fully fenced in the front and back yard with room for your dog to roam around our gardens. Your dog will be invited on the furniture and the bed if desired. Tam and I are home full time and will care for your pet as if they are our own. We'll treat them with love and compassion as we know every dog is different. Our home is fully fenced around both the front and back yard. We supervise your dog when outdoors for their safety and our peace of mind.

He has also been very flexible with the schedule and adjusted a walk time as my schedule changed. My dogs are 90 and 70 lbs and he has had no issues with them.”

About: Hello 👋 my name is Carmie and I am excited to meet you and your pets. I’ve taken care of cats and dogs ever since I was young. *For housesitting* I can stay there all day and return very early in the morning, but I won’t be able to sleep overnight. Friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. Personally, I’ve owned and taken care of my own dogs for many years and two rabbits. My two fur babies are a Samoyed and a Lab. They love going to the dog park and to play. There is a park nearby my place. I have a fenced yard where your dogs can run around safely and freely. I can take your pets on long walks for exercise and a good stretch. I’m experienced in administering oral and injectable medicine as well. If needed, please detail the necessary care in your booking. I work from home all day. Your pets will have human supervision throughout the day. I can follow your set schedule for your pets closely.

About: I grew up taking care of angsty chihuahuas and have since graduated to nannying large high energy hunting dogs. I have the capacity for any energy level and patience for any attitude. I currently have a lot of flexible availability throughout the week, with minimal commitments. I'm searching for full-time work and I have a lot of free time while I search for what's next for me. I can provide day time pet care services at a wide range of times as long as it is discussed a head of time. I can feed your animals, take them outside or for walks, or just hang out at home if that's what they would like. For higher energy dogs, I love going for hikes.

Before my booking was over I was already requesting her for more walks. 10/10 would recommend”

About: Thanksgiving: available in Seattle! Hello! I'm Deanna. I'm passionate about cultural exchange and managed study abroad programs for a long time before shifting into Project Management. I've also lived abroad for 3 + years, two years in Spain and one year in Brazil (plus extended sojourning in Chile and Guatemala).​ I grew up outside of Yosemite National Park which was a great foundation for a love for being outdoors. I enjoy yoga, learning, and exploring! I've cared for many dogs and cats, as well as rodents and a bearded dragon! My initial experience was caring for my childhood dog, cats, hamster, and rats. In recent years, I've cared for dogs and cats of friends and acquaintances, as well as guinea pigs and a bearded dragon. I've done quite a few sits on other pet sitting sites in the last couple years, below are a few reviews: Jennifer: Deanna’s calm and friendly demeanor immediately set my dog Max at ease. She sent daily photos and text updates that clearly showed he was a happy pup while I was away. The house was clean and tidy upon my return. I highly recommend Deanna! Desiree & Andy: Deanna was an excellent sitter for our dog Minnie. She sent pictures of the 2 of them going on adventures all over the place! We were very happy with the care Minnie got and we would definitely ask Deanna to housesit again! She is responsible, a good communicator, and an all around nice person. Trisha: Deanna was absolutely wonderful to work with for a sit with my two dogs. She was thoughtful and planful leading up to the sit and communicated well throughout. The dogs were happy and the home was clean when I returned from my trip! I would love to have Deanna sit anytime. I'm currently working remotely and have flexibility to navigate your existing schedule with your pets around my work schedule during the week. Weekends offer additional flexibility. I know how important it is to find someone who will care well for your pet and take good care of your home! I do my best to give the pets as much care and attention as possible and leave the home in order as well.

“Krista is so wonderful to work with! She helped us in a pinch and was fantastic from start to finish. She’s communicative, prompt, easy to talk with, and it’s obvious she’s an animal lover. Fred absolutely loooooved his long walks with her. Even when he was being a little stubborn about wanting to go home, she kept me in the loop and tried to redirect, and ultimately gave him lots of love (which I think was his ploy all along). I appreciate that she understands dog language and worked with Fred. All dogs communicate differently and she is well versed in working with all types, which we love! Would 100% book again and 10/10 recommend!”

About: I grew up with animals and frequently find myself pet sitting for friends and family because of my wonderful yard and peaceful environment. I can manage dogs with a variety of energy levels effectively and am always seeking to build good habits for your dog. I believe my lifeguard and swim instructor experience gave me the expertise to care and train your furry friends. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Things I would like to know about your pet: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ * Any medications (especially for anxiety) * If they sleep through the night * Any allergies or dietary restrictions * Whether they like to chew shoes or other things * If they tend to escape or try to run out doors/gates I work from home full time and have availability for daytime walks and tending to your pets needs. My schedule allows for frequent walks and playing with your furry friend throughout the day. I have a fully enclosed yard, enjoy walking on a daily basis and live in a safe, quiet and calm setting. I typically watch one dog at a time but can handle up to three if the dogs are familiar with each other.

Kaitlin is an amazing walker. She’s flexible, she handles my hyper reactive Pomsky well and sends the cutest pictures of her out on her little adventures. My dog is always so excited when she shows up and doesn’t even look back at me once cuz she’s ready to go, and that’s how I know she feels safe to go with Kaitlin. Would definitely recommend!

Berry can be dog reactive, and Trieste did a wonderful job exercising both dogs.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Boulevard Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Boulevard Park is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $40 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 12,113 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Boulevard Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Boulevard Park. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Boulevard Park after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Boulevard Park. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
