“Michaela is wonderful and our dog Jack loves her. Jack usually barks at new people, but the first time he met Michaela, he went all doe-eyed. Jack also has a number of funny habits that some walkers might be very impatient with, but Michaela is both patient and resourceful in interpreting what's up with him. Last, we human persons had lots of concerns about Jack to run past Michaela, and her communication and insights put us at ease. Michaela has a way with our persnickety pup (and similarly mannered people :)). We're glad to have found her!”

“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 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!

About: My experience with dog covers just about all fields there are. I spent 10+ years showing herding breeds in showmanship and obedience, often at the state level. This included all the required grooming and handling skills that comes with performing at a pro level. I also trained lessons at 4-H clubs once a week for 5 years. I helped teach kids how to teach their dogs and during that time I worked with dogs big and small. Fear aggressive and wild lab puppies. I continued my training at a local boarding facility where Ive been exposed to even more unique dogs. This facility specialized in dogs that needed special care or more technical help than regular boarding places could provide. Food aggressive malinois, elderly pitbulls that have specific medical needs and anxious poodles are all just a regular Tuesday for me. I'm always looking for a new experiences and a challenge! My goal is flexibility! Any day of the week, morning and night, I'm available. My work day starts late enough in the day for most if not all morning activities and I'm off perfectly on time for afternoon walkies. I've house sat for dozens of times. In my 10+ years of connection with 4-H, I've watched many members pets over the years. This included more unique animals like reptiles and birds all the way to a guinea pig barn. My goal is to keep everything as in routine as possible. Pets are already anxious when their parents leave so doing everything just like you do helps minimize any added stress. No such thing as too much information!

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.

“Simone is so so sweet and treats my pup so well, my dog is about 100lbs and is still in his adolescence so he’s pretty chaotic when he wants to be. He has a pretty structured training plan as he’s growing and maturing and she follows it to a T. If she won’t be available, she makes sure to let me know way ahead of time for me to find a backup. I can’t recommend Simone enough, my pup loves her!”

About: Hello! If you choose me to take care of your furry best friend consider them in the best hands! I have grown up with dogs all my life! Different breeds as well from the biggest you can think of to the smallest ankle biter out there. I like to treat all animals as if they were my own. Being a stay at home mom makes that even easier for me. Your pet will have 24/7 attention and have fun walks throughout the day! Being a stay at home mom my schedule is pretty open! We like to start our day bright and early, and having a dog myself we always enjoy a long walk in the morning. I like to walk the dogs at least minimum 3 times a day if your dogs need more or less I can adjust! After play time we love to cuddle up on the couch and rest their little paws All pets will be leashes prior to going on walks in addition my son is also kept away from the dogs especially while they’re eating since I have a dog of my own we have made sure to make sure he knows to be gentle with them and give them space

About: I grew up with a natural love for animals and I believe it has to do with having been surrounded by them. I am very patient and willing to learn how to care for every special dog. Ever since I was a kid, I've been allergic to almost anything with fur. But my love for them does not stop me. Nothing an allergic med can’t fix. Rates may also vary, depending on what you need we can discuss the cost! I care for every furry companion as if they are my own, it’s the least they deserve. I do this because its something I love to do and enjoy spending time with them since I don’t have time for my own right now. I currently work Monday, Wednesday and Thursday 11 at night - 9am. It can be hard for a pup to be home alone that long so please keep that in mind! I am willing to have a consistent, long-term schedule as well as just random-when needed days. Caring for pets in my home, I don’t have many rules. I try to allow them to be themselves so they can feel safe and happy while being away from their family. I am okay with them on furniture and on my bed, whatever makes them comfortable.

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats in the home since I was born and I’ve always loved helping care for them. My first few jobs involved working at a dog boarding/daycare facility and since then my passion for animals has only increased. I have now been working as a veterinary assistant, in both the ER and general practice, for over 5 years. I am comfortable working with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I am trained in providing medications, ( I have a current Veterinary medication clerk license) including injectable, and am CPR trained. Besides the medical stuff, I am a very outdoorsy and active person. I can accommodate any of your pets needs. My dog is my best friend and I understand how stressful it can be to trust somebody with your beloved pets. My goal is to make it known that your furry friends are in the best hands and are being well loved on while you are away.I can perform baths, nail trims, and Anal gland expressions if requested and if your pet is tolerant to it. As of July 7th I start clinicals 40 hours a week. My scheduling changes every other week and it is all over the place. July 7-17 I work from 7-3. July 20-31 I work 1-9pm. August 3-28 is 7-3 again and lastly 5am-1pm until September 11th. I treat everybody’s property with the same respect that I would want from my pet sitters. No guests over, no touching things that aren’t required, and making sure to keep things tidy.

About: Throughout my life I've had 4 dogs. Currently I have two, with one being a 2-year-old pup I've been training ever since I adopted her and one that's pretty old and requires some special care. I used to work as a dog groomer for a business called Kendra's Grooming and I would watch her dogs when she went away with her family for vacation. For Kendra's Grooming I would bathe, dry, and hold dogs whenever needed. All of my classes are online currently for the summer and I'm open whatever day of the weekdays and Saturdays along with whatever time or for however long. So, I'm able to work whatever time is needed. I would be able to keep a constant eye on your pup, take them on however many walks you would want, and would be able to care for them in whatever way is needed. I've worked with animals with all sorts of personalities and in varying stages of health, so I can work with any form of animal, and I can accommodate for any of your pet's unique needs.

About: I had 4 dogs growing up and my parents always had me on a tight schedule with taking care of them. I fed them every morning at 6AM or 10AM and at 5-6PM every night. I also walked them and cleaned their messed when needed, and finally i never let their water bowl go dry. I love dogs and when I’m around them long enough they’ll love me. I will have plenty of time to take care of pets during the week. Im currently trying to make any extra cash I can right now. Which ever way a dog has to he taken care of I can do it. Each of my dogs growing up had different food and ways they needed to eat so I always took care of that

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hillhurst

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 4,364 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hillhurst. 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 Hillhurst. 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 Hillhurst 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 Hillhurst. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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.
