“Erin is so reliable and always goes above and beyond. I’m so happy I’ve finally found someone I can trust and don’t have to worry about with my dog! I’ve been using her weekly since our first walk :)”
“Alijah was communicative and followed all instructions for my puppy's walks! She was very punctual and went above and beyond. I will definitely book again with her in the future when I need more pet care”
“Sarah was amazing with my dog! He was very anxious and had some adjustment issues, and she communicated with me through it all and was very patient managing through it. I would highly recommend her!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Incredible Dog Walking Experience with Jeffrey P! I cannot recommend Jeffrey P enough! He took my 14-month-old Siberian Husky, Henry, out for an hour-long walk yesterday, and the experience was nothing short of fantastic. Henry is full of energy and can be quite a handful, but Jeffrey handled him with such skill, patience, and care. When Henry returned home, he was happy, well-exercised, and completely content—exactly what every Husky owner hopes for! Jeffrey’s professionalism, punctuality, and genuine love for dogs truly set him apart. It’s clear that he understands how to work with high-energy breeds, and I felt completely at ease knowing Henry was in great hands. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog walker, Jeffrey P is the best choice. I will absolutely be booking with him again!”
“Jana was great! She responded quickly, was understanding when my original plans changed, sent pictures, and was patient with my pup. Will definitely reach out to her in the future!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, from energetic, high-maintenance breeds like huskies to senior cats who need a gentler, more attentive approach. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I adapt my care to meet those individual needs. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy dog’s exercise needs or providing calm, patient companionship to older pets, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free, and loving environment while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide attentive, loving care for pets throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or sticking to your pet’s routine, I’m able to give them lots of attention and companionship. I also offer boarding, so your pet can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a home environment while you’re away! Creating a safe, trusting, and comfortable environment for pets is very important to me. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always prioritize supervision, patience, and positive interactions. I also provide regular updates and communication so pet parents can feel confident knowing their furry family member is in good hands.
“Dale offered to meet and greet which is also a plus when working with a new walker. Arrived on time for both meet and greet and walks, thank you Dale I will rebook.”
“Bruce was excellent, communicated perfectly, and clearly loves dogs. He helped me out when I couldn't walk my sister's dog. My sister and I will definitely request his help in the future. Thank you Bruce!”

“Justin was an incredibly reliable walker for our sweet Milli girl. He made sure to meet her beforehand, was very communicative throughout the duration of our booking, and never went even slightly under the 30 minutes we booked (often going a bit over). We will definitely book Justin again, and recommend him highly to others looking for dog walking services.”
About: My family has worked with english bulldogs for 10 years and since the age of 13 I've played a big role in their care and upbringing. I've cleaned up just about every mess you can imagine, and fed and bathed them since they were pups. I also have experience caring for cats as a house-sitter. As a pet owner I know how important our fur companions are. I will give your pets the same love and attention I would want someone to give mine. I work part-time and have a generally flexible schedule. I can easily drop in during the middle of the day, and schedule walks and other activities as needed. For walking, if your dog has a preferred route just let me know. I can accommodate your specific needs for your pet in the home. Cate / Kennel needs, etc.
About: I grew up on a ranch, helping to care for animals from the exotic pet trade as part of their rehabilitation. This also gave me an understanding of animal body language, respect for their quality of life, and the patience to train them. I work from home on art commissions, but love to get a chance to go outside. Because of this, my schedule is quite open and flexible for daytime. It is totally up to what the client requests for their pets care, but as per my morals, I only train pets through positive reinforcement. Patience and understanding are the core elements of how I approach animals and especially pets. At home I have a small crate and 2 small friendly dogs that free roam because they are my good little princesses.
“My puppy and I needed someone who is reliable and consistent in terms of scheduling; we got super lucky to have found Brenda! She is communicative and a very kind person. She takes extra steps to get to know your pup and always seem so excited to spend time with him hehe. Very happy that I can rely on Brenda and grateful to have her as our dog walker!”
About: I grew up in a household with 1 dog, 2 puppies, 3 cats, and a kitten. I got this, believe me. Dm me for deets. I work full-time from 8-4:30 but my workplace is 6 mins away from where I live. I can take care of your dogs from 5pm or overnight. My latest would be 8pm if not overnight stay. I live alone and most of the time, when I cat sit, it’s chill. There’s a lot of park within my area and it’s an animal-friendly neighborhood. I also have a yard fenced roof deck, a dog run and wash area in my complex. IMPORTANT: If your dog is pretty aggressive and can’t be tamed with a simple command, please find a new sitter. If your dog barks at almost anything at any time of the day, humps animals, and doesn’t listen, I’d rather have you find someone who has more tolerance for your pet. I live in an apartment and I can’t anger my neighbors just because your dog doesn’t know how to behave properly. I have had dogs who are quiet and calm when left being by themselves. If yours is one of them, then feel free to message me.
About: Since I was a child, I have been surrounded by puppy kisses and cat purrs! Friends, neighbors, and family members happily allowed me to walk their dogs and look after them while they were out of town, and my adoration for caring for animals is something I still carry with me. Growing up, I had three dogs that I cared for from puppy to senior, along with a senior cat my family adopted. In their old age, each pet had different needs, for example my pug's back legs were immobile and required assistance moving anywhere and needed medication. For me, caring for animals is caring for family, and building strong bonds. I love dogs at any age and am excited to get to know new animals through playing, hiking, and cozy nights in cuddling. I am currently a college student with a part time job, and have varied availability! This summer I am available nearly every day with the exception of a few weeks in July-August. Mornings and afternoons usually are best for me, sometimes this changes and I have further availability into the evening. I value open communication with folks around boundaries as we build connections with each other. If you have any specific needs or requests on how I navigate your home, please do let me know! I am not only caring for your pet, but your space too, and want to be intentional and respectful.
“Gabriel has been amazing with Murphy this week! He’s communicative and reliable. Murphy can sometimes be reactive or a little stubborn about walking, but Gabriel handled him so well and was very patient with him. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and extra care during the walks. As I’ve been working long days, I had a last-minute care request and really appreciated that he was able to accommodate it. It gave me peace of mind knowing Murphy was in good hands.”
First Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Victoria is a great communicator and does a great job caring for my dog. She is great at rolling with the punches not matter what my dogs mood is, sometimes she wants to walk sometimes she wants to lay in the sun and Victoria is great at accommodating it all. She also is flexible with my random schedule changes!
Eleanor was absolutely fantastic! She was early to our first meet and greet and went above and beyond to make my timid dog feel comfortable. I appreciated her detailed communication during her care of Penny over the weekend. I could relax knowing Penny was in good hands. Eleanor is reliable, professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her!
Rebekah is amazing! She is reliable, communicative, and always sends the sweetest updates and photos of Murphy after their walks. Recently Murphy has been sick, and Rebekah was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding. She kept me informed, helped clean up after an accident, and truly went above and beyond. It's obvious she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I completely trust her with Murphy and will definitely continue booking with her.
Becca alerted me that one of our dogs was having some tummy troubles when she took them out on their regular walk and took extra time to give her a butt bath before leaving to help keep our home clean. She went the really went the extra mille and we were able to expediently resolve her GI irritation.
Dale was punctual, professional and very loving toward Rumi. They took her for a walk and we had a meet and greet, and they were extremely thorough with their questions. I could tell they cared a lot about making sure Rumi would be happy and comfortable with them.
Responded to a last-minute request and really helped me out. Levi was great with my dog, Argos, and made the whole experience stress-free. Communication was excellent; I felt confident that Argos was in good hands and would definitely book with them again. Highly recommend!
Im truly SO grateful for Ana (and I know my dog is too). She’s been walking my dog for the past week while I’ve been in training for my new job. She truly stands out from other dog walkers I’ve worked with (and I’ve worked with quite a few!). She is incredibly reliable, communicative, kind, flexible, and hard working. I feel so good knowing she’s coming to get my girl every day! Also - huge bonus - the photos she sends of my dog are so STINKY CUTE!!!
