âBriaunna is great! She came out before the scheduled walk to do a meet and greet with my dog and she really cares about meeting you and your dogs needs. Briaunna updated me on when she picked my dog up and dropped off, as well as sending photos and leaving a note on Koko's behavior/walk. If you want your dog to be well taken care of, you should book Briaunna!â

About: Iâve taken care of pets since I was a child. Iâve been a licensed veterinary technician for 21 years. I treat all pets like I would my own.

When Iâve cared for others pets I go to there house at least twice a day. If needed or able Iâll go three times a day. I ensure lots of love & play time. Iâve taken care of young pups to diabetic geriatric pets to shy nervous pets. I know every animal is special in their own way. Iâve been called a cat & dog whisperer by many people. I love and care for every pet as I would my own.

Open availability, dates and time are negotiable. Safety for the animal and myself is very important. Any signs of disturbances or harm will be acknowledged and addressed in a timely matter. I will also stay very communicative with the clients and with the emergency team. I will treat the animal and the home as if it was my own.
About: I have worked at an animal hospital for 5 years total where I learned how to train dogs from Kathy Sadao who used to train the wales to relinquish the bombs for the Navy. I have owned large and XL breed dogs my whole life as well. I will treat your dog like a human child as they will be allowed on my furniture, my bed, and probably my kids beds as well. I have a little over 10 acres for them to play on. We are starting a small farm style residents and would love to shower your fur babies with love and attention. Since starting Rover, 90% of my clients are returning, and become part of our family as well. I have trained peopleâs dogs in the time I have had them along with help manage dogs anxietyâs to different things. I helped a water aggressive dog become no longer water aggressive.

About: Iâve had both dogs and cats in the home since I was born and Iâve always loved helping care for them. My first few jobs involved working at a dog boarding/daycare facility and since then my passion for animals has only increased.

I am trained in providing medications, ( I have a current Veterinary medication clerk license) including injectable, and am CPR trained. Besides the medical stuff, I am a very outdoorsy and active person. I can accommodate any of your pets needs. My dog is my best friend and I understand how stressful it can be to trust somebody with your beloved pets. My goal is to make it known that your furry friends are in the best hands and are being well loved on while you are away.I can perform baths, nail trims, and Anal gland expressions if requested and if your pet is tolerant to it. As of July 7th I start clinicals 40 hours a week. My scheduling changes every other week and it is all over the place. July 7-17 I work from 7-3. July 20-31 I work 1-9pm. August 3-28 is 7-3 again and lastly 5am-1pm until September 11th. I treat everybodyâs property with the same respect that I would want from my pet sitters. No guests over, no touching things that arenât required, and making sure to keep things tidy.
About: I love spending time with dogs of all kinds. My family dog passed away of old age (13 years) last year so I love the thought of spending time with other peopleâs dogs and giving them love when their families canât be there. I currently have a golden doodle named Loki (2 years old) who lives with my friend and have taught him to sit, shake, lay down, and whisper bark! I am currently a graduate student studying speech language pathology at the University of Washington. All funds that I make through Rover go towards paying my tuition. I can dog sit anytime that is available on my calendar :) I make sure to provide lots of pictures and updates for the parents. In case anything is out of the ordinary, I always make sure to have vet information before the families leave.

âMichaela is wonderful and our dog Jack loves her. Jack usually barks at new people, but the first time he met Michaela, he went all doe-eyed. Jack also has a number of funny habits that some walkers might be very impatient with, but Michaela is both patient and resourceful in interpreting what's up with him. Last, we human persons had lots of concerns about Jack to run past Michaela, and her communication and insights put us at ease. Michaela has a way with our persnickety pup (and similarly mannered people :)). We're glad to have found her!â


About: Iâve been dog sitting since I was 10 years old, giving me years of experience caring for dogs with different personalities, routines, and needs. Iâm responsible, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Iâm comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and following each ownerâs specific care instructions. Iâm currently job searching, as I am new to this area, so I will be available pretty much any time during daylight hours and weekends. I cannot bring pets into my apartments, but I am happy to watch someone elseâs dog at their own place. I usually receive a list of things to do for the pet(s) and follow the instructions as they should be done, to ensure the pet(s) are comfortable.
About: I have been caring for my own and others animals for well over 20 years. I will treat your fur baby just like my own! I run my own schedule and have the freedom to travel to someoneâs home to provide care or host pets at home for short and longer stays. I have a fenced in yard and can have my fur baby separate to make everyone comfortable. I follow the instructions of the pet parents and thatâs just it. Plain and simple. The way that you want your pet cared for is the way that I intend to care for them.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Elk Plain is $29 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $34 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 petâs specific needs.

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 Elk Plain. 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 dogâs 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 Elk Plain 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 Elk Plain. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
