Natasha is so wonderful! She has been nothing but patient, consistent, and persistent with my unpredictable dog. She has put extra time in to training sessions (with a professional trainer I hired) and has effectively put into practice what she learned during those sessions to better build her relationship with my dog. Her daily reports are always detailed and her communication is always timely. I wish we could take her with us when we move. Natasha has truly been a huge help, and is flexible with my ever changing schedule.

Allyson was terrific. She was on time. My dog is tired and happy. She walked him, played with him, and made sure he had what he needed. She made it easy and I’d trust her in my house any time.

Jenni is great. She has helped us get our high energy dog out for walks while we are at work. She is patient with our little pup, and he always seems happy on days they walk. She always takes great pictures of our dog, and is very communicative about what is going on with our dog. Would definitely recommend her.

About: Hi there! I've had pets most of my life: mice, guinea pigs, and kitties, and I've even taken care of horses a bit. I've not owned a pup but watched dogs for friends and family, including boarding them at my home and taking them on hikes. I have a fairly flexible schedule, and for your home sitting needs I'd be happy to lend my green thumb to your house plants, too. Please reach out to see if I can help you with your unique needs. I am taking a break from a very stressful career and would be happy to fit your four legged family into my very flexible schedule. I'm here for you and your pet, and I want to keep them safe and happy. I'll talk to you to learn of their unique needs and will be observant and responsible when you're not around.

About: My most recent dog care experience is from my Kennel Technician job and my volunteer work at One Tail At A Time in Portland. I’ve gained experience safely handling dogs with different personalities, monitoring behavior, and helping maintain a clean and safe environment for both animals and people. I also completed Dog and Cat First Aid Training through American Red Cross. I am available most weekdays at the moment, but I just started a part-time job as a Kennel Technician. Once they get my shifts scheduled I’ll update my calendar to reflect my availability. I will send consistent updates, photos, and stick closely to your pet's routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I'm currently accepting new clients for walks and drop-ins, so feel free to message me!

About: Owner of English Lab for 5.5 years and she is my World. Got her at 3 months. Life Changer. She makes everyone around her (me included) feel like the most important person in the World. I also grew up with an American Lab which I cared and loved for, for 13yrs. My family got her when she was just a puppy at a year old (I was 13) and she lived to be 13yrs when she passed (I was 26). She is the reason I started to really love dogs. I’ve also volunteered at the Oregon Humane Society quite a bit over the past 5yrs That has been a very rewarding experience. I currently work Fridays-Mondays in the medical field and have a lot of free time on my days off. I usually take Millie, my Lab, for a 2hr walk in the surrounding neighborhoods and try to get her down to the river once a week to swim. It’s by far her favorite activity and she’s a master swimmer. I live in an apartment with my dog and care for her like a child. Because let’s be honest. She is a child. She gets whatever she needs and so will every dog I care for on a daily basis.

About: I have had a dog in my house since the day I was born and have grown up taking care of them. I have puppy trained and helped care for my senior pets. I have dog sat for friends and neighbors and helped walk dogs when needed as well. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for a number of years and have learned how to work with a variety of types of dogs. I work an atypical schedule so I am working Fri-Tues. That means Weds & Thurs I have unlimited availability to spend with your pets! My settings may not reflect that accurately since the site clumps all weekdays together. I am able to take care of pets most hours of the days but afternoons are where I have the most free time! For house sitting I will spend all of my free time at the house and for other services we can discuss times based on my work schedule. I am available after 3pm on Tues & Fri, and after 5 on Sat & Sun with all day availability on Weds & Thurs. In your home I will care for your dogs as instructed and make sure to spend as much time with them as I possibly can. In my home we make sure to pay lots of attention to the dogs and their needs. Whatever the service is that you are requesting I will take the best care of your pets as possible.

Dog Walking FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Center dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Center.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
