“Roman was very diligent and caring in walking and feeding my pup, who responded with affection and happiness. Additionally, Roman is a very nice person and I enjoyed talking with him.”

About: I've had rabbits for the last decade, so I am thoroughly experienced in small animal care. I have supported friends and family by dog-sitting for about the same amount of time. It the 4 years, I've been able to provide housemates and friends with dedicated care for their feline friends. My overall experience includes, walks, feeding, changing litter, overnight sitting, and playtime. I also feel comfortable caring for more than one animal at a time. I care for my own rabbit daily giving food, water, exercise, and enrichment time. I want to provide the same care to your pet. I have my weekends reserved for pet care of others' animals and find time for the weekly tasks that support my own rabbit during the week. I always review instructions that are left regarding the needs of pets. I appreciate clear communication and I will go above an beyond to make sure your pet has whatever they need. I would hope to be able to spend more of the day and/or drop in multiple times throughout the day to check on them. I hope that I can put you at ease as you are away from your pet.
“Elizabeth is AWESOME! She always goes above and beyond in the care and attention she gives to my pup, Finley. She is an excellent communicator, consistent, and kind. I can rest easy knowing Finley is getting what she needs with someone I trust!”


“Maria was great! She showed up on time every day and sent photos and updates of my dog's walks. He looked happy, and I'm glad he got to get outside during my work day. I'll definitely be booking with her again.”

About: Growing up, my family had a poodle named Fluffy. After graduating college, I adopted my first puppy, Frankie! I've had Frankie for 4+ years now and trained her myself. I've taken care of dogs of all shapes, sizes and ages! I work full-time at UW Medical Center M-F. I am available weekends to board/walk with flexible time frames. I could be open to house sitting for the right dog. I live in a studio apartment with an unfenced yard. I have one dog. I go on lots of walks and could take to parks to run around.
About: I love taking care of animals! They bring so much joy to me and other people. As a dog parent that used Rover for walking my dog I understand what it means to be reliable and loving. I have a set schedule as a RN. I would love a good walking companion on my days off. I am off Wednesdays, Friday through Sunday. I love getting the inside scoop on your loved one. I know each dog can be very different. Making a plan for the dog and I to feel the most comfortable.
“Angela has been wonderful with our little Bichon Frise. And Oscar loves her! Angela has been very kind, friendly, and patient with our pup and an excellent communicator with us via Rover. - Lauren 😊”


About: I've grown up with both dogs and cats my whole life and have spent years caring for the pets of friends and family — so I bring genuine, hands-on experience to every booking, not just enthusiasm. I'm equally at home with a slow, sniff-heavy stroll with a senior dog as I am with an energetic pup who needs a real workout along the Burke-Gilman. I love cats and miss having one so would love to care for yours meantime. I'm comfortable administering medications and managing special needs, and I take the time to learn each animal's individual routine, quirks, and preferences before we ever head out the door. You'll get photo updates, honest communication, and a caretaker who is calm when it counts, structured when your pet needs it, and genuinely flexible around your schedule. Your pet is in good hands — and you'll know it. My work-from-home schedule gives me genuine flexibility that most walkers can't offer — I'm available most weekdays after 10am and can often accommodate same-week requests. Midday walks are my sweet spot, but I'm equally happy doing weekend adventures or overnight house sitting when you're out of town. If your pup needs an extra-long outing or your cat just wants some unhurried company, I have the time to give it. I can't host pets at my place, but honestly? That just means I show up to yours fully present and unhurried. I've been the trusted go-to for friends' and family's pets for decades — it's just always been my thing. Your pet's safety and comfort is my first priority on every single outing. I keep dogs securely leashed at all times, stay off high-traffic streets, and always match the route and pace to your pet's energy level and physical needs. I'm calm under pressure, attentive to body language, and know when a dog needs to slow down, take a break, or just sit and watch the ducks on Portage Bay for a minute. Cats get genuine attention, not a quick scoop-and-dash. Your home is treated with total respect and you'll always get a real update — photos, notes, the good stuff.
“I went out of town for 6 days and Craig was able to walk, feed, and provide companionship for my dog. He was well liked by Obi and when I arrived back he was happy to show me Craig with his tail wagging. Craig provided exactly what Obi needed.”

“We are so lucky to have found Biancana on Rover! She was amazing and so sweet with our Clancy. She texted us upon her arrival and departure and texted pictures during their outdoor walk adventure. She is sweet, caring and very attentative to our needs/desires for our dog. We will most surely be using her again and recommend her as an A++++ for your needs! We simply can’t thank you enough, Biancana! ~ Clancy, Anna and Grant”

“Sebastian is kind, honest, reliable and communicative. He’s gone above and beyond to support my app-related questions, and he’s becoming an invaluable asset for Toby’s quality of life.”

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I grew up surrounded by both cats and dogs, caring for them daily—feeding, playing, and learning to understand their unique personalities. My Chihuahua gave birth to 5 adorable puppies 2 years ago, and I took on the full responsibility of raising and training them. From nighttime feedings to early socialization and basic commands, I experienced firsthand what it takes to care for pets with patience, love, and consistency. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy senior pet, I treat every animal as if they were my own—with love, safety, and attention to detail. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member and keep you updated with photos, videos, and tail-wagging stories while you’re away! My schedule allows pet sitting before 7:30 AM and after 6:00 PM on weekdays, with open availability on weekends for extra attention, playtime and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their usual routine to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I respect the home, provide regular updates, and make sure everything is clean and secure when I leave. Whether it’s feeding, play, litter box cleaning, or medication, I’m thorough and reliable in all aspects of care.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, starting with my family’s cat Bella and our goldendoodle Triscuit (who, yes, was just as lovable as her snack-sized name suggests). Growing up with both a cat and a dog taught me how to adapt to different pet personalities, whether that means entertaining an energetic pup or respecting a cat’s need for their royal personal space. Since then, I’ve cared for all kinds of cats and dogs. Making them feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their humans are away. Whether it's playing around the house, going for nature walks, or simply existing in each other's company, I make sure every pet gets the attention they deserve. Animals tend to warm up to me quickly, and I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away For me, pet sitting isn’t just about responsibility, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Taking care of pets while traveling makes the experience even better, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your home and furry friends with care, respect, and maybe a little extra belly-rubbing, I’d love to help! My routine is usually quite flexible so I adapt to the needs of the pets I am with. Usually that means a walk and or play time in the morning, afternoon, and evening. At home, I keep things clean, organized, and well cared for. I bring that same level of care when staying in someone else’s home, making sure everything stays tidy, plants stay happy, and your space looks just as good, if not better, than when you left. Basically, you’ll come home to a well-kept house and a happy pet.
About: Hi! I’m Savannah! A lifelong animal lover and proud Seattleite for the past 10 years. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, birds, and even a chinchilla, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. As a fitness instructor, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend quality time with your pets. I have years of experience with dogs of all sizes (including large breeds) and am comfortable managing multiple pets at once. Whether it’s daily walks, trips to the dog park, or just keeping your pets company while you’re away, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I treat every animal like my own and tailor my care to meet their unique needs and personalities. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members! I work part-time as a fitness instructor, so my schedule is really flexible. Since my classes are short, I have lots of time during the day to focus on your pet—whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I make sure they feel cared for and comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and secure in their own environment. I always take the time to understand your pet’s routine, preferences, and any house rules you’d like me to follow. Whether your pet thrives on structure or is more go-with-the-flow, I’m happy to adapt. I treat your home with care and your pet like family, making sure they feel comfortable, calm, and well-loved while you’re away.

“Justin was an incredibly reliable walker for our sweet Milli girl. He made sure to meet her beforehand, was very communicative throughout the duration of our booking, and never went even slightly under the 30 minutes we booked (often going a bit over). We will definitely book Justin again, and recommend him highly to others looking for dog walking services.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. I grew up with cats and small animals, including gerbils, guinea pigs, and hamsters, and I also helped care for my sister’s dog when he was a puppy, so I’m very comfortable with high-energy, playful dogs and understand the patience and consistency puppies need while they’re learning and growing. My senior cat recently passed away from old age and kidney disease, which gave me extensive experience administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and providing extra care and comfort to pets with special needs. I bring that same level of attentiveness and care to every animal I look after. I’m very active, love dogs, and enjoy being outdoors—so long walks, playtime, and exercise are something I genuinely enjoy providing. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a relaxed companion, or a senior needing extra support, I’ll adjust to their personality and routine so they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Born and raised in Seattle’s Central District, I know the city well and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and reliable. I will always treat your dog like part of my own family. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work from home as a Program Manager at a nonprofit that helps people with disabilities find employment, so I have a flexible schedule throughout the day. My work is computer-based, which means I can easily adjust my day around pet care needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication schedules, and companionship breaks. If your pet needs company during the day, I’m also able to work from your home since I only need my laptop to do my job. This allows me to provide consistent presence, attention, and supervision for pets who do best with someone around. Overall, my flexible remote work setup makes it easy for me to integrate pet care into my routine and ensure your pet is well cared for, comfortable, and not left alone for long periods. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I always follow the pet’s established routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication instructions, and any specific behavioral or medical needs. I take time to understand each pet’s personality so I can help them feel secure and reduce stress while their owner is away. I am very clean, tidy, and respectful in other people’s homes, and I always treat each space with care and consideration. I understand I am a guest in your home and make sure to leave everything as I found it. I am very attentive to safety during walks and outdoor time, always using secure leashes and staying aware of surroundings, other animals, and potential hazards. I also make sure doors, gates, and entry points are properly secured in the home so pets cannot accidentally get out. If a pet needs medication or has special care requirements, I am experienced and comfortable following detailed instructions and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. Most importantly, I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, cared for, and never alone for too long.
Montlake dog parents share their Rover experiences
Victoria is a great communicator and does a great job caring for my dog. She is great at rolling with the punches not matter what my dogs mood is, sometimes she wants to walk sometimes she wants to lay in the sun and Victoria is great at accommodating it all. She also is flexible with my random schedule changes!

Rebekah is amazing! She is reliable, communicative, and always sends the sweetest updates and photos of Murphy after their walks. Recently Murphy has been sick, and Rebekah was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding. She kept me informed, helped clean up after an accident, and truly went above and beyond. It's obvious she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I completely trust her with Murphy and will definitely continue booking with her.

Becca alerted me that one of our dogs was having some tummy troubles when she took them out on their regular walk and took extra time to give her a butt bath before leaving to help keep our home clean. She went the really went the extra mille and we were able to expediently resolve her GI irritation.

Charlotte is great! My dog gets nervous around other dogs so I am always looking for a walker that knows how to handle this and she was perfect. She pays attention to the instructions I gave her and she was always very kind with my dog. Definitely recommend her!

Dale was punctual, professional and very loving toward Rumi. They took her for a walk and we had a meet and greet, and they were extremely thorough with their questions. I could tell they cared a lot about making sure Rumi would be happy and comfortable with them.

Responded to a last-minute request and really helped me out. Levi was great with my dog, Argos, and made the whole experience stress-free. Communication was excellent; I felt confident that Argos was in good hands and would definitely book with them again. Highly recommend!

Kyla is the best walker I’ve ever had. I trust her fully with my puppy. She is attentive, communicative and flexible. She personally assessed my dog’s pain level in the days following an injury and adjusted his activity level to match, carrying him to the park for training games one day and taking him on a bus trip the next (which is great socialization). To top it off, she takes adorable photos during every walk which never cease to brighten my day.
