“Elizabeth was fantastic. Our dog gets very anxious when we are gone and need a confident sitter to feel secure enough to go on walks. Elizabeth listened to all my suggestions and took the time to work with our dog. She’s friendly, kind and reliable. We will definitely ask her come again.”

“We love Jenna! I am new to the area and my regular dog walker went away for a month but luckily I found Jenna on Rover. She obviously really cares about animals and really takes good care of my 2 fur babies, not just walks but also great feedback on their behavior and mood and poo quality and such, which is really helpful for a busy single Pet Parent. And they clearly love her! Jenna is now part of our "pack" we book her regularly.”

About: Hi I'm Amy! I love animals! I grew up with the sweetest family dog and had so much fun raising him and training him to do some fun basic tricks like sit, lay down, spin, shake, roll over, bang! I also fostered kittens and cats during college, and even taught the cats to do tricks like high five and spin! I am currently working part time as an SLPA and would love to care for your pets on my days off from the clinic because it brings me so much joy to be around them. I can follow specific directions and adapt to your fur-baby’s needs. All pets are unique, so I am more than happy to accommodate anything necessary for your pet’s specific needs.

About: I raised my goldendoodle from 6 weeks old and he’s now 5, well trained, happy and healthy living with my mom. I’m a certified EMT, spent several years working in Urgent Care, and am applying to become a firefighter paramedic. I’ve always loved animals and appreciate the respect it takes to care for them! I am not currently working as I apply for fire departments, so I am available most of the week at any hours typically. I’m very flexible with my schedule! I am very active and love going on long walks or to the park. We have a fully-fenced yard and a three-story home, so we have the space to accommodate playing and/or crating.

About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and have basically never known a pet-free life. I grew up with my dad, who is a professional dog trainer, so learning how to understand and work with animals started early for me. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and even ferrets (yes, really) — I had two ferrets and a cat in college, and now I have two cats of my own. I regularly take care of my family’s pets when they’re out of town, and I take that responsibility seriously while still making sure pets feel relaxed, safe, and loved. I’m excited to expand my pet care and help more families feel comfortable knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have two cats of my own, and playtime is built into our mornings and evenings — it’s something my husband and I genuinely enjoy. We both work full-time (I’m a teacher and he works in the medical field), but during the day my mom or grandmother is home with my son, so there’s always someone around. That means pets are never left without care, attention, or a familiar presence, and I’m able to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine. Pets will be safe and comfortable in my home. We own our house and have both a fully fenced backyard and a fenced front yard, giving pets plenty of secure outdoor space. We love getting outside and regularly go on longer walks and trail excursions, so active dogs will get plenty of exercise and enrichment. Daily walks are already part of our routine, often with my son along for the fun. Inside, pets have space to relax, and I can crate a dog if needed or requested. I also have a calm, quiet area of the house for pets who prefer a more peaceful space or need a break from activity.

About: Growing up my family had a yellow lab and many members of my extended family also had dogs. As I got older and became independent, I would dog sit for my families’ pets. The dog sizes range from small dogs to bigger dogs and at various stages of their lives. I now live with my boyfriend who has a Great Pyrenees and a Goldendoodle. When dog sitting, I enjoy taking them out on walks, playing in the yard, and cuddling. I just moved to Tacoma and am still job hunting, and while that requires a lot of time, my days are free and flexible to meet you and your dog’s needs. I am good at following directions and can adapt to your dog. I have taken care of a senior dog where he required medicine at meal times. I enjoy taking walking with the dogs and giving them lots of attention.

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life and have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages for others. I now have two cats at home and enjoy looking after pets for my friends! I work from home and have a lot of flexibility to check in on pets throughout the day and evening. I am available during the week as well as the weekends. I prioritize safety, communication, and punctuality. I will always be respectful of your space and ready to respond. My goal is to give your pets the care and attention that I would give my own!

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals throughout my life. I grew up with a dog and have since gained hands-on experience caring for dogs during many house-sitting stays. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and following each pet’s established routine. I’ve also had cats my entire life and currently have a cat of my own, so I understand their unique personalities, boundaries, and ways of communicating. As an energy practitioner, I’ve developed a calm, grounded, and observant presence that animals often respond to naturally. It also helps me notice their subtle cues and give them the affection, reassurance, or space they need. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive, and I’ll treat your pet and home with genuine care and respect. I carefully follow instructions, keep everything tidy, and provide photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time and have a consistent schedule, which allows me to plan pet care reliably. I’m best suited for drop-in visits before or after work, evenings and weekends, as well as house-sitting stays. During house sitting, I can maintain your pet’s morning, evening, and overnight routine. Some daytime visits may also be available depending on location and advance notice. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s schedule to ensure my availability is a dependable fit for their needs. I provide care in my clients’ homes, where pets can remain comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, playtime, litter, and household instructions while respecting each pet’s personality and boundaries. I keep doors and gates secured, maintain a clean space, and provide regular photo and message updates. I approach every animal calmly and patiently, allowing them to become comfortable with me at their own pace.

“Jennifer is an incredible dog walker, and we feel so lucky to have found her. She takes amazing care of our dog and always goes above and beyond to make sure he’s happy, safe, and well-exercised. We especially love the thoughtful updates and adorable photos she sends—it gives us total peace of mind when we’re away. She’s dependable, kind, and truly treats our dog like her own. She’s even gone the extra mile by cleaning up after multiple accidents in our home while we were away, which we deeply appreciate. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals and takes pride in her work. We couldn’t recommend Jennifer more highly to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated dog walker.”

About: I have always loved animals and dogs have a special place in my heart (I'm the girl that stops dead in her tracks to point out EVERY dog I see to whoever I am out with). My family had dogs and cats growing up, and I’ve always been the go to person for family and friends to help out with their babies. I'm a very active person, so your pup will get plenty of love and exercise while they are with me. I'm also very flexible so I am more than happy to satisfy any needs or special treatment! I’m currently a full-time student, taking classes online, so my schedule is extremely open! My days are very flexible and I am happy to make adjustments to fit the needs of my clients. I always follow any rules or requests you have when i am with your pet. You’ll get lots of pictures and i am always easy to reach for any questions

About: I don't have any "formal" experience training puppies or anything like that. I've just been a cat mom for over 30 years and share custody of a 16.5-year-old Golden Doodle named Maestro the Lady Killer. He loves going on short walks and getting treats afterward. I am self-employed and a contract social worker so I make my own schedule. Caring for your furry family members can happen when you need me. Your furry family member's safety is my top priority. As a pet parent, I will treat your furry family member the way I'd expect a sitter to take care of my furry kids. I follow instructions well, so if you tell me they have a strict feeding schedule, I will follow it.

Jenna is absolutely wonderful! The boys took to her immediately, and she jumped right in to make sure they were well cared for. They genuinely enjoy spending time with her, which gives me such peace of mind. She has been working with our family for a while now and has consistently been reliable, punctual, and attentive to their needs. She never hesitates to go the extra mile, whether it's putting on their wraps or making sure they're safe, comfortable, and settled at home. It's clear she truly cares about their wellbeing. We’re so grateful to have her, and I couldn't recommend her enough!

Rosa has a gift for dog walking. She is prompt and asks questions about Myka’s needs she is very friendly and made a fast friend with Myka. Myka is very excieted to see her and Rosa talks to her and pets her until she calms down. They always have a good walk because Myka comes back sleeping the rest of the day. I have found 2 really good dog walkers through Rover and Rosa rates at the top. She is a blessing and a keeper. I would highly recommend her.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Fircrest

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Fircrest is $21 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $32 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 October 2026, there are 9,835 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fircrest. 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 your Fircrest. 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 Fircrest 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 Fircrest. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
