Responsible Dog Walker

I’m a dog person. I grew up having dogs and begged my parents for a German Shepard in high school. Since then, my fiancé and I have a small terrier - who I love with all my heart. I never thought of myself as SDP (small dog person), but I can safely say, I love big and small dogs. I’m a responsible adult, currently making a career pivot and looking to make some money while unemployed. Have lived in Seattle since 2021 and familiar with most neighborhoods near Queen Anne. I have a part-time job where I work weekdays 11am-5pm PST. I am available early mornings (before 10am), evenings (after 5pm) and weekends..

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small dog in Queen Anne - we live in an apartment so very accustomed to needing to take her out for daily walks and exercise!

Ian helped out to cover dog sitting for Ellie very last minute and was such an excellent person for her. He was able to meet on late notice and get to meet Ellie--especially as a dog with more anxiety he definitely knew how to take care of her and be gentle/give her the space she needed to get acclimated. He was very communicative and took great care of Ellie and the space. Definitely would have him watch her again!

Ian, as usual took great care of Roscoe. We’ve noticed that our occasionally nervous guy has acquired some new coping skills after spending time with Ian. Ian even helped Roscoe when coyotes appeared on the street. The house keeping was terrific, thanks for the laundry.

Ian did a great job of taking care of Roscoe, and looking after things in general. We really liked getting pics of Roscoe obviously enjoying himself!

Ian did a great job of taking care of Roscoe. Ian was very patient with him and gained his trust. They had a great time and Roscoe was obviously enjoying walks and hanging out with Ian. Ian kept the house neat, and did laundry and ran the dishwasher! We would certainly use Ian again.

It’s helpful to know walk tendencies of your pup - specific routes you take on a walk, leash routines, medications, how friendly they are with other dogs, avoidances, etc.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
