About: Vet clinic experience, lover of all animals at all life stages! In my care, they will receive patience, enrichment, affection, and love. I will make sure to heed your instructions about training things you are working on so your pet has continuity, and any other special care they need. Fun fact: I have 20 years as a spa therapist so I am a great person to give touch therapy to your babies 😀 I own a local day spa and work from home mainly. This means I am nearby always. Helping with walks and grooming, I will make sure to keep your fur love entertained and exercised to their level of normal routine. I will take your spot in their routine so your pet is less stressed while you are out for the day. Whether its a potty break, a quick stroll, some cuddle time, or a car ride to the park for burning some energy, your baby will be sure to trust their new "aunt Jamie"
“Kalie was amazing with our dogs. She was very patient with them as they can be a handful on the walk. She provided photos and updates on each walk. I trust Kalie with our pups and will definitely hire her again! Thanks Kalie.”
“Meghan does a great job walking my 2 large breed dogs! She always sends pictures and updates, and I can tell they are having a good time. She is flexible and willing to pick up extra days when they come up or change the time of a walk if needed. I will definitely be booking Meghan again!”
About: He cuidado las mascotas mías y de mi familia, ellos han confiado en mí para cuidar de ellos y darles de comer, jugar con ellos y llevarlos de paseo.

Vivo en un apartamento, así que puedo llevar a tu mascota a dar un paseo y si tú prefieres puedo cuidarlo en su entorno si es lo que deseas.
About: Your small dog wont just be watched - they'll be welcomed into a real home with teens, another dog, and a calm old cat who has seen it all. Your baby will be part of our normal household life... car pools, walks & lots of snuggles. As a stay-at-home mom to two teens, a Maltese poodle, and a cuddly old cat, pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. Your dog will be treated like part of the family — coming along on errands, joining us for walks, and even tagging along while I shuttle my teens to their activities. They’ll settle right in as one of our own. I am very active & walk/run daily! I would love to bring your pup along to explore all the things. My home has a fully fenced yard, so dogs have safe space to play and roam. I have a friendly Maltese poodle who’s used to new company (she even goes to work with her dad a couple days a week), and an unfazed old tomcat who’s seen it all and takes new dogs in stride.
About: I'm 36 years old, I love animals and recently got out of the Navy. My family has four dogs back home, kimchi (pitbull lab mix), Indy (German shepherd mix) Louis and Rene (daschunds), and three cats that we rescued (Jiji, Cleo and Smokey). In high school I worked as a kennel worker at a veterinary hospital for 2 years and love working with animals. I’ve spent some time volunteering at local animal shelters at different places I was stationed with the military. I really enjoy taking dogs on walks and hikes and would love to take care of your pets while you’re away. I’m available for house-sitting, drop in visits and dog walks. I work nights from 8 pm-6:30 am, I’m off 7 days/6 nights in a row every other week, feel free to reach out and I’ll let you know if I work any of the dates you’re interested in. During a week where I work, I would be able to come back to your pet in the morning and feed them breakfast/either go for a walk or hang out a bit. Afterwards I would sleep from roughly 8:30 am-12:30pm. When I wake up at 12:30 I can offer your pet a midday walk/potty break/or just some one on one time. Around 3 pm, I may take a 2-3hr nap, but otherwise I will be free from 12:30 pm until I need to leave for 8 pm shift. If you have questions/concerns with this schedule I’m more than happy to answer them. When I am off I switch back to a normal daytime schedule will be able to spend the day/night with your pet. When watching your pet, I’m there for your pet. If they want to hang out and do nothing, we’ll do that. If they want to go for walks, hikes or adventures, we’ll do that. I can accommodate myself to fit your pet’s needs.
“Sophia is fantastic! We usually rotate between two dog walkers in case one has something come up. We recently needed help walking our dog for 2 weeks, so we split the time between our two walkers, and our other walker fell through last minute. Sophia graciously took on the additional week of walks with short notice, which really helped us out. She was on time, adjusted the walks based on our dog's needs (too hot, too rainy, etc.), kept us updated with cute pictures, and communicated promptly. We will definitely be booking with Sophia again!”
About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Mostly dogs but I have also had cats, guinea pigs, fish, rabbits, and various other small animals. I currently have two wonderful and very active dogs. River is female Catahoula mix with nonstop energy and Atlas is a male Cane Corso mix that steals the heart of anyone he comes in contact with. In addition to taking care of my personal pets I have cared for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors ever since I was young. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and all stages of life from puppy/kitten to senior! I am a stay at home mom. I am married with 2 wonderful kids ages 10 and 7. I have an active household who love sports and the outdoors. I feel blessed to be a stay at home mom as it gives me the flexibility to be home to spend time with my children and fur babies. I have a fully fenced yard and my two dogs love to play ball or just lounge in the sun. I also love to go to the dog park and let my dogs run and socialize. I keep a pretty active lifestyle and my dogs go for a run several times a week and they love hikes when schedules allow!
About: I’ve owned and took care of animals my whole life anywhere from cats and dogs to birds and lizards. I love them all and will treat them like any own I’m available anytime. I don’t do care in my own home, unfortunately I have a dog at home that is dog aggression we still love him though lol. Also wanted to mention I require at least one meet and greet before caring for anyone’s animals, and for safety reasons I always bring either my brother or boyfriend with me during meet and greets. I feed my animals, take them on walks, I’ve trained them, play with them of course and I let them ALWAYS sleep on my bed, what’s mine is there
About: **I am currently only watching cats, small dogs, and other small animals due to a recent injury.** I love animals of all kinds! I grew up with cats of my own, and currently have 3 kitties, 2 snakes, and a lizard (-: I began watching dogs and cats for others at age 12. I have professionally cared for animals for 13 years. I have experience with a variety of dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles; bathing, grooming, and administering medication. I also have socialized feral cats and worked with animal rescues for special needs animals. I am very patient and have experience with temperaments of all kinds. My priority is the wellbeing and happiness of your animals. I am always free to discuss a schedule that works best for you and your pets! Caring for animals is my passion, I am all about giving love and attention to your pets! I can take your dog on a ride to the coffee shop for a puppacino or just hang out at home if doggies are shy. I love playing with cats, or just letting them do their own thing if they are shy. Whichever your animals prefer!
About: I've had pets all my life, and have worked at pet stores, kennels and vets. Animals are my true passion and calling and I do not discriminate against any species. I am currently unemployed and looking for a part-time way to make some extra cash. I figure, why not do something I love. My schedule is pretty open. I can do anything outside of my own home. I have cats and a dog, and don't think they would appreciate the company of other pets.
About: Experienced and dependable pet sitter with a lifelong background in animal care, having owned and cared for small to medium-sized pets since age 6. I’ve provided pet sitting for family members’ large dogs and cats, handling feeding, playtime, and daily routines with care and attention. I also have hands-on experience raising kittens from just days old, including bottle feeding and monitoring their health. I genuinely love working with animals—especially fluffy ones—and prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. 🐾 I am currently seeking pet sitting opportunities and have a flexible schedule during the week, allowing me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs, including visits, feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I work all day Saturday, Sunday, and wednesday; I work half days Monday and Tuesday and I am off thursday and Friday. I enjoy spending time with animals and prioritize creating positive, calm interactions—whether that’s playing, comforting anxious pets, or simply keeping them company so they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or any messes, and giving them attention through playtime, petting, or quiet companionship depending on their personality. I also make sure doors, gates, and safety areas are secure before leaving.
“What can I say about Hope?! She's such a wonderful and caring person. She came out to meet Miles and me before I was going to bed out of town for a week, just to see where she'd be walking him and to get used to Miles. She updated me every day she walked Miles while I was out of town and included photos and comments of how he did. She even called my mom before arriving at the house since she was babysitting Miles! She is such a fantastic caregiver. Anyone lucky enough to book her is in for a treat!”
“Marcela is an amazing walker. Wish I could give more stars. She came the night before for a quick meet. Sent some photos and let me know how my dog did on the walk. Definitely recommend.”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Kent is $25

Maribel is excellent. I needed someone reliable to walk my dogs while I was on vacation. She is professional, timely and very careful with the dogs. I have a senior that needs a bit of attention on walks and Maribel did great. She always sent pictures and updates and was careful to confirm dates and times.
Garrett was the greatest! A real lifesaver when I dog sitting for a neighbor.. due to mobility issues I wasn’t able to do long walks like Riley needed.. enter Garrett. He was great in communication and punctual for every walk. He was patience with me and all my questions. Riley also had the best time during every walk. She got to get some the energy out she had and came home a happy happy tired girl. Garrett was great to Riley also you can tell he loves dogs and cats.. I will appreciate him and what he did for Riley and me always.. thank you! Pick him if you are looking for a dog walker you will not regret it!!!

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 Kent. 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
