“Kati is a wonderful care giver to our puppy, Charli! Beyond just walking and playing with her, Kati takes time to engage and stimulate Charli so that she doesn't get bored. Kati is also incredibly kind and helpful with Charli since she got spayed. I can't say enough great things about Kati's abilities to care for our fur baby!”

I am taking new cat and dog clients as well as medical clients, and those that need fish or pocket pet feeding as well. I provide drop in visits, dog walks a few days per week, house sitting, and can provide medical visits giving insulin, fluids and oral medications. I love dogs of all ages and breeds and look forward to helping you with your furbaby! I typically have a very packed schedule. Please inquire for holidays 3 month in advance at minimum. Currently looking? Please message me with dates to get the ball rolling and reserve a spot. Crate used if pet is trained to it and appropriately sized. Otherwise we have plenty of dog beds,toys, and many gates to keep everyone safe.
About: I have taken care of all types of dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, and all of their unique personalities! I have owned dogs with cancer and also a few reactive ones. Therefore, I know each dog has their own specific needs, and I love to spoil them in their own way! I currently work 2.5 hour shifts as a coach 3 times a week, besides that I am able to give them all the love and affection they need. Besides these short shifts your dogs will rarely ever be left alone! I have a dog of my own who goes on walks daily, and also plays enrichment games everyday! He would love to have a friend to do it with! I have a fenced yard, and a very friendly and energetic dog of my own to keep your fur baby busy! I take all dogs for a walk 1-2 times a day so they have time out of the house to go on an adventure as well! I try to take them on different routes each time so it’s more exciting and interesting for them, this also applies to my dog walking service! Besides walks, I also include multiple types of enrichment activities for them!
“Bobbi is the best! I never have to worry when she is scheduled to come see my dogs when I am at work. I appreciate her photos and visit summaries, and she checks in if there are any questions or concerns. So happy to have her close by!”
About: Hi! I’m Paula, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up helping care for animals on my family’s farm in Colombia and later gained experience working in a veterinary clinic, which taught me how to safely handle animals, recognize when something isn’t quite right, and provide attentive care for pets with different needs and personalities. Today, I share my life with dogs of my own and understand how important it is to find someone you trust when you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a quiet companion to stick to their routine, I adjust my care to fit what makes them happiest and most comfortable. I have experience with: • Puppies and high-energy dogs • Senior pets • Large breed dogs • Administering medications • Multi-pet households • Shy or anxious animals When I’m caring for your pet, communication is a priority. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how they’re doing. My goal is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care for pets throughout the day. While I have a few work responsibilities that only require a couple of hours here and there, they don’t interfere with my ability to prioritize pet care. Additionally, while I do have dogs of my own, they are a shared responsibility within my household, meaning their care does not take away from my ability to fully focus on the pets I’m sitting. This flexibility allows me to accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and any special care needs without interruptions. Whether it’s an overnight stay, multiple visits a day, or drop-in check-ins, I ensure that pets stay on their normal routine and receive the attention they need while their owners are away. My priority is to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I provide pet sitting exclusively in my client’s home, allowing pets to remain in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and maintain their routine. When caring for pets, I follow their specific schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other special needs they may have. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day, adjusting my care to match their personality—whether they need extra playtime, gentle reassurance, or space to relax. Additionally, I respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean, securing doors and gates, and ensuring a tidy environment while they’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease knowing their pets are well cared for.
“Tabitha continues to be a great asset for Kai and I. She has a fantastic attitude and she genuinely cares for Kai and we always look forward to her visits! Mahalo nui loa Tabitha”
“Kelsey took excellent care of my pup while I was out of town, she is a great communicator and very flexible and reliable. I would absolutely recommend her! She also sends fantastic updates that seriously made me smile every day🥰”
“Amanda has been absolutely wonderful — not only as a dog walker, but as a truly kind and caring human. She has become someone we genuinely look forward to hearing from and have loved having as part of our pups’ lives. We always enjoyed her thoughtful updates, sweet commentary, and little notes after each walk. It gave us so much comfort knowing our dogs were in such loving hands. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Amanda help us during such a busy and chaotic time, and we’re so grateful for the care, kindness, and joy she brought to our pups (and to us!). She is truly one of a kind! 💕🐾”
“Savina did a great job walking our dog while we were out for the day. We came home to a worn out and happy pup! We had peace of mind knowing Savina was watching over our baby. We recommend Savina and will book her for future walks!”
“My name is Porgi the Corgi and I love my new friend Karen! She took me to my favorite playground; PLU campus. She can keep up with me better than my mahm's wheelchair. I'm super happy and ready for afternoon naps! Oh, yeah, mummy likes her, too. Kind, fun, friendly, and all kinds of nice words. ?”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since taking home my first adopted dog when I was 13. I love all dogs, any age, size, or breed. I believe dogs can detect a gentle human being, and I always strive to make dogs comfortable. I have dog sat numerous times and now have my 2nd dog, a 2 year old shepherd mix. I am an RN and thought a great way to make money on the side would be to do what I love most. As an RN I work 12hr shifts but only 2-3 days per week. My flexibility will change week to week, but I will be sure to keep my availability current. For my own dog our back yard is fenced in completely, mostly 6 feet tall aside from a small section that is 4 feet tall. Toby has a dog door and can go in and out as he please to use the bathroom or enjoy the outdoors.
About: I have been caring for animals for most of my life. We had 2 Doberman when I was a baby which led to me always having a dog or cat in my life. I'd love to meet yours! I will be the only walker handling your pets through this profile. I am available for short, elderly walks to long, youthful puppy runs. Ready to talk, feel free to shoot a message over to talk about your needs for your animals :D I will be the only walker handling your pets through this profile. I like to ensure your pet has a clean, safe environment. All hazards will be picked up promptly, as well as any potty spotted in the yard or accidents in the house.
About: Always check to see if the dog has food and water, especially during hot weather. I always play with the dog no matter if I'm tired. I live near a dog park so I visit there with my sister's dog when I watch him. I have had dogs of my own as well. I can work with any size of dog or breed of dog. Willing to work around your schedule as well. Thank you.
About: Basic first aid of animals. Puppy training, reliable, patient, communicative, flexible, consistent, caring and empathetic, problem solving, flexibility and understanding. Physically motivated and physically fit! I would absolutely love to take care of your furry friends! Any time they need a walk, or to play tug of war or even just some cuddles I’m the one! I prefer to to care for pets in your home, it’s less stressful to your pup and they would be happier and comfortable in their own home!
About: I grew up surrounded by many animals. When I was 10 I had 4 guinea pigs, 2 dogs, 1 cat and stray farm cats. I spent time working on a farm with my family who taught me how to love and care for animals. I also pet sat throughout high school and later worked at a doggy daycare, gaining hands on experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. I love taking dogs on hikes and fun adventures while their pet parents are away. I even have a dedicated dog room filled with their favorite things to help them feel comfortable, loved, and at home until their family returns. 🏡 I’m a stay at home wife who loves baking, walking, going on hikes, and if I’m not hiking I’m home 24/7, so your dog will always have plenty of attention and care. When a dog stays with me, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible. We will also go on plenty of walks and Saturdays are reserved for fun hikes and extra adventures!! I will also annoy you with pictures and videos to update you! 😂💖 I provide a calm, loving home where pets are treated like my family. I follow their regular routines, provide daily walks, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable space so they feel happy while their parents are away.
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life and enjoy the unconditional love they provide. I am experienced with dog walking and in home care always taking your fur babies needs into consideration. I am open and flexible to your schedule and pet care needs. First meeting would be about meeting your pet to establish a relationship of trust and then figure what services best suite your fur baby I can provide safe walking and in home pet care. I have had several sessions with a dog trainer myself working on training and handling aggression and fear in dogs. Also interacting with them to provide mental exercises to keep them from getting bored.

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 Fort Lewis. 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.

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 Fort Lewis. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
