About: I’ve taken care of family pet since I was 16 and could drive. I would pet sit/house sit for my grandpa and her 2 dogs, I also dog and cat sat for my aunt I only work a couple of days a week and I’m wide open besides that for the moment. I am starting college in the fall but there shouldn’t be to much difference in availability. I love all pet and understand the importance of treating a pet with the utmost love. I will follow any instructions you as the owner puts in place, you can rest assured that your pet will be taken care of!
“I'm so happy I found Lauren to take care of my dog Muli. I feel totally confident that he is safe with her and that he's getting a lot of energy out. Lauren is very easy to work with and has a lot of love to give your pup!”
About: I have been a cat-owner and dog-owner since I was about 5 years old. Additionally, I have help to care for others pets, from family to friends to community members. I am quick to learning a pets' habits and preferences, doing whatever makes them and their parents most comfortable. I've helped care for puppies that are still in training, old dogs with younger siblings who have varying energies, and cats who need daily medicine and attentive care. I am happy to help with any pet care needed if given time to fully understand a pet's needs and if the furry friend is comfortable with me to do so. While I work full-time, my work schedule is flexible to fit to your and your pets' needs. I am fully available on weekends, unless otherwise stated. And I am happy to do early morning or late evening check-ins or walks if needed. I am an attentive pet-owner who likes to stick to a schedule for both my and my pets' benefit. My priority goes into making sure my pets are taken care of before taking care of myself, and keeping a consistent care and grooming schedule. That care is given ten-fold when I am looking over another person's furry baby. I adjust my schedule and routine to pets' needs, and provide daily or weekly reports to the parents so they are put at ease of their pets' safety and comfort.
About: I have been surrounded by animals for my entire life. I got my first puppy when I was 5 years old and since then I have been in love with dogs. I am very organized, flexible, caring, punctual and easy going person. I would appreciate knowing what your pets standard, daily routine looks like. I am comfortable with any medication your furry baby might need. Let me take care of your friend and we will have the best time :) I have a lot of free time and I like being outside. Hanging out with furry friends in the park it’s something that I enjoy the most. I offer 4-5 walks a day. Depends on the age of your dog and need of course. I like taking dogs for a long walk.
“Alexis can by to meet Fred before her time with him which I really appreciated. I had no worries while away she arrived at the time she promised and Fred loved her I would highly recommend Alexis and will definitely request her services again Thanks Alexis!”
“Susan is like family to me, I am so glad I am able to trust my pets with her! She is amazing and I will always book with her when she is available! She is great with my high energy dogs, and my cats adore her!”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and pets for friends, family and neighbors! Including dogs, cats, guinea pigs and birds. My own bulldog, Brodie will always be my favorite though! I’ve cared for all ages of dogs, from young pups who need a lot of check ins to senior dogs who may need more patience and dietary requirements to anxious dogs who worry when their loved ones are gone. All are loved and all end up in my camera roll! (I won’t bother you if you want but I love to send pics to check in!) I currently work part time as a barista and am enrolled at CWU, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I miss my pets so much back home so I am so excited to get to care for yours! I walk shelter dogs every Friday and currently that is where I am getting my pet fix but I can always use more companion time! I keep pets safe by making sure when I enter or leave that doors and windows are closed up and if we go outside it in a fenced area or we are walking with a leash. This ensures no accidental excitements that end up in a lost pet. I can easily crate your pet if that is your preference!
About: I have house sat since I could drive. I adore dogs, and all animals for that matter. I have trained both my dogs and miss them dearly since being at college. If you’d like someone to baby your dog, i’m your gal!! I currently don’t work and I can spend almost all day at your house with your baby. I have school from 8am- 11am weekdays but am free after that! I also am big on walking and recently got into running. I don’t have a place to keep a dog at my house but I am always down to stay and take care of any size dog at your house. I also am an avid walker
“Caitlyn was awesome! I especially appreciate her communication- my dog has had gastrointestinal issues since he was bitten by a rattlesnake 9 months ago, and I've turned into quite the helicopter parent. With Caitlyn, I knew where my dog was at all times, which was reassuring, and when I came home, it was clear that he had had a good time with her. Thanks, Caitlyn!”
“This was our first experience with any dog walker or somebody new after 5 years. I was very nervous because Jomo is a reactive dog so it took us a while to make the decision to allow somebody else to take him out on walks. Austyn really made me feel at ease every single time! We had a meet and greet at the park where Jomo walks which really made me feel comfortable and feel assured Jomo and other dogs would be safe. So glad to know my pup was in good hands. Thank you Austyn!”
About: I have been a pet/ house sitter for many years. I have worked at many farms and in animal shelters. I am a student in a Veterinary Technician Program. I have a very flexible schedule. Being an online student I can do my classes anytime and any place. I am open for whatever times you need for as long as you need. I am very compassionate to animals and love them all no matter what. I will adhere to any things that your pet needs. If they need pills I can do that or frequent checks I can work that into my schedule.
About: I recently lost my senior dog at 15 years old. I’m looking to provide that same love, patient, routined care to others pets. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to focus on the care your pet needs. I have experience in specialized diets, medications, and mobility support. I also love to walk and would be happy to take your pet for sniffaris. My current full time job is remote work, allowing me plenty of flexibility, particularly if your pet stays in my home. If need be I can also work from others homes, if pets prefer to stay in their home. I live on the second floor of a quiet fourplex, my apartment is accessed via 14 steps on the outside of my building. I care for pets by bringing them on neighborhood walks, and live across the street from a park.
About: Hello everyone, my name is Anna, and I have had many pets my whole life but now don’t have any of my own and want to get into part time work as a petsitter! I love spending time with furry friends, as well as helping people find the care that they need to live their lives freely. I have worked with animal rescues and done lots of housesitting/pet sitting over the years, so I have great references and would love to get in contact with you about your needs! I have experience with animals with special needs, administering medication, transportation, socialization, and training. I am comfortable with all sizes, ages, and personalities! I do a lot of part time freelance work, as I love to travel and set my own schedule. I am openly available all days of the week except for Thursday evenings. I am a very hands-on and attentive caregiver, and I also love to be active, so I can provide exercise and stimulation for pets that needs it, or am down to just spend quality time with pets who are more laid back!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, from family pets to farm animals. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes as well as horses, cattle and other livestock. Because of this, I’m comfortable with animals that have different temperament, routines, and needs. Whether it’s going on walks, providing playtime, or just keeping pets company, I bring patience, responsibility, and a genuine love for animals to every job. I recently graduated from CWU and have lots of free time. I have time during the weekdays and weekends to watch your fur babies and provide a fun and positive environment for them! My job is to make sure your fur babies are well taken care of and happy and I'm glad to follow any kind of care instructions you provide!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ellensburg
Kailei did great with the dogs and helped us out in a pinch. She spent the full walk time with them (even when they resisted the leash walk or didn’t play fetch as they sometimes do) she still spent the full time letting them be outside in the yard which is the most important thing for us— that they get that much needed outside time when we have to work all day. She follows instructions well— and we appreciated the photos of our happy pups when we’re stuck at work.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Ellensburg on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 your Ellensburg. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Ellensburg.

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 Ellensburg. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
