About: I am patient, easy going and a dog mama. I have had my own dog boarding business, and I will take excellent care of your special pet. I am a regular walker and it would be a privilege to take your dog on their walks. My schedule is wide open and I am happy to help. I am trustworthy and reliable with experience around all dogs. I will respect your property, I will honor your instructions and treat your pet in a kind manner.
About: I have been dog-sitting consistently since 2016, and it's something I truly love! My budget and schedule doesn't allow me to have a dog right now, but I love getting to care for others when they need someone reliable and trustworthy to help them out! I work part time and have a pretty flexible job, so can work with your schedule and needs. Reach out to me and we'll see if we can work it out! I am very thorough, detail-oriented, and responsible. I always aim to care for your pets the way I would care for my own, so rest assured, they will be in good hands!
About: I have always had a deep love for animals of all kinds, and I treat every one as if they were my own. Their well-being is my absolute priority. I will give your loved one all of the care, focus, and specialized detail that they deserve. I work as a SPED Teachers Assistant. My hours are 8-3, Monday through Friday, from September until mid June. I am completely available during the summer, except for July 9th-13th. I wait for your pet to approach me so they know theyre safe with me. I will prioritize their agency and comfort. I will respect their environment and home. I follow all instructions and leave no trace.
About: I've always had pets ever since I was very little, I adore all pets. I have had many, and currently have kitties and a puppy! I know a lot on how to care for them, and love playing with them to keep them happy and stimulated. I currently spend most of my time at home with my own pets, I occasionally babysit family as well. I love spending time outside, and hiking with my pets too! When I do in home care or check-ups I always want to make sure the pet is well taken care for so I always check their water, food, and let them go potty if it's a dog. I play with each pet to make them happy and have a fun activity, also walks are great. I can walk for miles if you have a dog that loves or needs a long walk, I'm all about keeping your pet happy and healthy!
About: What sets me apart from others is that I will spend quality time getting to know the pet and his/her individual needs. Building a trusting relationship with the animal is of the upmost importance. My weekly schedule will allow for me to be available to work providing pet care services 20-30 hours a week. Along with being reliable I am also willing to be flexible. Again, I get to know the animal and his/her needs while honoring the instructions and guidance from the owner. Establishing a solid, trusting relationship with the pet and its owner allows for a positive experience for all involved.
“Chelsea gave all the best first impressions. She understood Raymond extremely well and was attentive to the support I needed. I'm so thankful we met and excited to keep working with her.”
About: I’ve worked with dogs since I was a child. I’ve been exposed to large dog breeds (ex. Rottweilers & German Shepherds) as well as small dog breeds (ex. corgis & dachshund's). I am a certified dog trainer, with 9 years experience and can work in some Basic Obedience work with your dog during their stay or we can talk about some behavior modification and steps to move forward for private lessons. I currently work part time and have plenty of time and energy to work with and take care of your pup. I work with my own dogs twice a day but those sessions are very flexible. I don’t currently have a fully fenced in yard, but I have access to 5 private acres I can walk your pup on a long line. I utilize martingale collars to prevent any mishaps or escaping. I utilize positive reinforcement to connect and have clear communication with each dog I interact with.
About: I’ve taken care of countless pets and treated them as my own over the years. It’s truly what I’m most passionate about. My main goal is to make the pets and owners feel as safe and comfortable as possible and to have a blast doing it! I have an open schedule and can do same day bookings. Early mornings aren’t my strong suit but I’m willing to do what works best for you and your pet. Pets feel most comfortable at home or in their own neighborhood with familiar surroundings. I pay close attention to the things that put them at ease when you’re away and try to get to know every individual animal’s needs.
“My dog knew the minute he met Adara that THIS was a dog person, and he had found his new walker. During the meet-and-greet, I learned about Adara's qualifications and studies toward pet care and training, and I was thoroughly impressed. My dog was bananas to meet Adara, and they clearly had a wonderful time on their walk together today. My dog returned exhausted and happy, which makes me peaceful and happy! Thanks, Adara! We'll see you again soon!”
“Sydney went above and beyond with communication, both before and during the booking. And of course took great care of our pup. We appreciate the care she provided during the booking.”
“This is the service I never knew I needed and good lord the dopamine BLAST mid day from pictures of my dogs is just the icing on the cake!! Chanay is amazing, very thoughtful, respectful and top notch!!”
“Cadynce was amazing! She helped me out last minute & was very responsive. This was our first time having someone walk our dog, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again.”
About: My house is a zoo. I currently have two dogs and three cats. I'm used to feeding everyone, walking them, cleaning up after them, and sharing all the love! One of my dogs is 85 pounds, and the other is 15, so I'm used to the pulling and excitement! You can trust me to provide the best care to your fur babies! I currently have a varying schedule where I either work a typical 9-5 or a 12-10. I'm available whenever needed and usually have weekdays off and some weekends. I can provide walks, baths, pets, brushes, feedings, treats, snuggles, and whatever else your fur baby needs! You let me know what you need from me and I'm happy to do it!
“Andre has been fully transparent and on time to walk our pups! They love walking with him and he provides them with treats and attention. He does a wonderful job of giving them the extra exercise they need.”

Abigail was great with my little chihuahua mix. I highly recommend her! She walked my dog 2 days in a row when I was in town for a wedding. Abigail was responsible, kind, friendly, easy-going, and very flexible. She genuinely seemed to enjoy caring for my dog. I appreciated Abigail and thanked her profusely for helping me out!
Keri is amazing! She was very patient, kind, and loving with Lucy. She was a lifesaver and walked Lucy for a few weeks while were dog-sitting. She helped prevent Lucy from getting stir crazy at the house! We highly recommend Keri for her flexibility and obvious love towards animals. Thank you, Keri!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Forest Grove on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of August 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 6,278 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Forest Grove. 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 Forest Grove. 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 Forest Grove.

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 Forest Grove. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
