“We have been working with Jessica for a year now. She is incredibly reliable and communicative. Very patient with our 17-month old puppies high energy behaviors. Our dogs love her as part of the family. We definitely recommend her!”
About: We are a busy family with a 15 year old daughter, a 13 yo mixed breed dog named Indy, and a 10 year old cat named Stella. I have had pets my entire life and will care for yours like they are my own. Any day with pets is a good day. I have plenty of availability to care for your pets while you are away. I am an absolute animal lover and would love the chance to share some of that love with your pets. I have my own cat and dog at home, so I am confident I can provide exactly what your furbaby needs while you are away. I have experience giving medicines to my own dog as well.
“Kayla is excellent with my normally reactive dogs. Having another person help me walk the dogs more frequently has helped them be less reactive to others. I appreciate this service so much! Thank you, Kayla!!”
“Morgan is great with our Gus! He is shy around other people and we wanted him to be more comfortable around other people--so we thought a dog walker was a good idea. Morgan is gentle and patient ith him. She's only been our dog walker for a short time, but when we say "Morgan's coming today" his head snaps towards the door in anticipation of her coming. We highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! My names Ekte! I currently have 2 dogs of my own and 3 kitty's, but I've had many more pets in my life time! I've sat a handful of kitties and dogs ranging in all sizes so rest assured I can handle em! Whatever your pet needs, whether that's just a friend to sit with, feeding, pottying, or someone to play with I can help! Just message me any questions :) P.S. I don't have many photos right now, so enjoy the photos of my littles for now 😋 The ones I do have, I specialize in silly pictures ☺️ I usually work 3 pm to 11pm at my other job! But if there's a time in between there just feel free to shoot me a message and ask! Im usually willing to take my lunch to stop by, and then once again when Im off work (free of charge of course :) ) Whatever is needed for your pet I'll accommodate too, whether that's special instructions cause they're reactive or a rescue (which I understand, no shame), or they just simply need someone to sit there with them, we can work it out!
“Madeline came by to get the dogs zoomiez out so they didn't spend too much alone time being mischievous. I'd recommend Madeline and hope to work with her in the future!”
About: Hi, I'm Zora, and I am 19-year-old student who grew up in Mount Vernon. I am currently taking a gap year in Norway, and I am looking to do some pet care when I return home for the summer. During high school I was a dedicated leadership volunteer and a teacher aide at a preschool. I have a cat and a small dog and I love taking care of pets! I can stay at your house or just drop by when needed, and I can walk smaller dogs or calmer large dogs - I'm just not strong enough to handle super big dogs if they pull a lot when walking. I am very calm and gentle and I volunteered at the NOAH animal shelter for three years with both dogs and cats. I love animals and my goal is to make them feel comfortable and safe when they are in my care. I don’t have my summer schedule solidified yet, but I will prioritize any bookings made here. Once I make a commitment, I stick with it. I do not offer boarding, but I have a small, dog-friendly car so I can take them for a hike or a visit to the park if you are comfortable. I will spend as much time as I can with your pets to ensure they feel loved, comfortable, and happy when they are in my care. I am gentle and patient and will not force affection on animals who aren’t enthusiastic about it.

About: I've had dogs my entire life and love them more than anything! I have lots of experience, 20+ years and have been doing Rover on and off for 12 years now and have also been pet sitting for multiple different repeat clients for the past 15 years. I have taken care of many pets with special needs as well, including cats. We have the sweetest 4 year old 14lb Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who loves making doggy friends of all sizes. They will never be left alone for a long period of time and will have lots of outside time if they enjoy that! We have a large fenced in yard. I'm available for overnight stays in my home, day care and also available for daily drop ins or to take your pup for walks. I'd love to take care of your animal any age and whatever needs he or she may have! I'm currently home full time so I have lots of time with your pup and they won't be left along for long periods of time. I have a large fully fenced in grass yard for pups to play or relax. I constantly keep an eye on all of my visitors inside and outside.
About: I have taken care of my dog for several months, kept up with his training and spend time playing. Puppies need extra attention to grow into healthy adults. Adults need just as much affection and some play time. I work full-time weekdays but I am available in the evenings. Saturdays are free for me to play with dogs and take care of them. I can manage keeping up with a dogs training and take care of their needs at the same time! Who needs their dogs loved on or watched over?
About: I still have few spots available in May, June and part of July, so book your pet sitting now! Sedro-Woolley, Bellingham and Mount Vernon! As a school bus driver, I work 6-10 AM, then have few hours break and go back to my afternoon drive 2-6 PM. To ensure proper care for animals, I like to book clients no further than a 30 min drive from Sedro Woolley. Please take this into consideration when looking at a sitter for your pets! The school year ends June 12th and I am available until mid-July. Afterwards, I am taking time off for my own motorcycle travels (this time to Colorado) and then spend August in Europe :) I have owned cats, large dogs (100 + lbs), and horses over the years, so I'm well-versed in handling a variety of pet needs. I am comfortable around animals and can stand my ground with them. I enjoy large breeds and, having two 150Lbs + dogs before I know how hard it is to find someone to take care of them! I am available for short and long term stays in Whatcom and Skagit counties. Dogs, cats, horses, turtles and fish - all welcomed and loved! I work as a school bus driver, so I leave the house early in the morning for few hours, then have 2-4 hrs off and then drive the kids home in the afternoon, usually 2-6 pm. If this is something that will work for you and your pet family, please reach out! I usually do a greet & meet before to make sure that everyone is comfortable! I will follow the directions you give me, be it giving medication to your pets, putting it in the crate at night or when away and any other rules that you may have.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Vernon
Pamela took care of our doggie for 3 weeks while we were out of country. Our doggie was very happy to spend time with Pamela. He was able to go on his regular walks and do lots of sniffies. Pamela was excellent with communication, sending regular updates and pics. We were very pleased with Pamela's professionalism and her excellent care for our furry family member.
Riley is great with our dog, a Shiba Inu. Our dog, who can be very temperamental, immediately loved her and jumped into her arms for loving when he first met her. He rarely does that! Riley is very responsible, conscientious, and friendly. We will definitely hire her again when we need our dog cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Mount Vernon on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,826 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Mount Vernon. 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 Mount Vernon. 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. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Mount Vernon.

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 Mount Vernon. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 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.
