About: I’m new to Rover, but I’ve always loved being around animals and have cared for pets for family and friends over the years. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow whatever makes them feel most comfortable. I also have hands-on experience outside of that, including living with my previous roommate’s dog, fostering cats, and watching my friends’ pets. These experiences have helped me get comfortable with different personalities, routines, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for in a home environment. You can count on me to be reliable, patient, and treat your pet like they’re my own. Whether that’s going on walks, playing, sticking to their feeding schedule, or just giving them lots of attention, I’ll make sure they’re well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. I’m excited to meet new pets and earn your trust by providing safe, dependable care! My schedule is very flexible, so I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and any specific timing needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I always make sure pets are in a secure, supervised environment whether we’re at home or out on a walk. I’m careful about leashes, doors, and following any specific instructions you provide to keep your pet safe at all times. I have a fenced-in yard and a porch, which gives pets a safe space to relax, play, and get fresh air while still being supervised. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet and in your home, so I’m respectful, responsible, and reliable. I’ll treat your space with care and keep everything clean and as you left it.

Grace has been so kind and accommodating with our little Luna! Even on days when our 11-year-old pup isn’t quite up for a walk, Grace still takes the time to bring her outside to a shady spot in the grass so she can enjoy some fresh air and the beautiful weather. We truly appreciate the extra care and attention she gives Luna

About: I totally get it – one of the biggest questions on every pet parent's mind is how their beloved furry friend will get along with other animals when they're in a new environment. Please don't worry about a thing! My whole setup is designed to make sure every single dog has a super harmonious and stress-free stay. To kick things off, when your pup first arrives, my own resident dogs will be hanging out in their separate, comfy space. This gives your dog tons of time to sniff around, explore, and really get used to their new surroundings without any immediate pressure to socialize. It’s all about letting them settle in at their own pace! Once your furry pal looks relaxed and happy, and their body language is telling me they're ready, we'll start some super chilled-out, gradual introductions. I'll be right there, watching every little tail wag and ear twitch to make absolutely sure everyone feels totally comfortable and safe. Their comfort and safety are truly my top priority, every step of the way! You can absolutely relax knowing that your dog's safety, happiness, and overall well-being are my highest commitment. They'll be showered with affection, get consistent supervision, and receive care that's perfectly tailored just for them. Basically, they'll feel incredibly loved and cherished throughout their entire stay – almost like a pampered mini-vacation! With that being said - just wanted to share that I've been absolutely head over heels for animals my entire life – seriously, as far back as I can remember! From playful pups and purring companions to feathered friends and everything in between, I've had the joy of spending time with all sorts of wonderful creatures. I'm super flexible and genuinely curious about whatever kind of furry (or scaled, or feathered!) friend you might have. I'd love to hear more about your specific situation and just connect for a friendly chat. Hope to talk soon! I absolutely adore having a bustling house filled with the joyful energy of animals .My days are wide open and dedicated to being present, so I'd be delighted to welcome your little ones into our daily fun! We'd embark on all sorts from lively playtime plenty of outdoor excursions – think park visits, nature walks, or just soaking up some sunshine in the garden. My aim is always to ensure the pets are happy, engaged, and having a wonderfully stimulating day! Seeking compassionate and reliable care for your beloved animal companions? My home offers a warm, secure, and stimulating environment designed with your pet's well-being in mind, whether they're staying with me or receiving care through in-home visits. **A Welcoming Home for Your Dog:** My property boasts a Small spacious,fenced decent yard,Which is amazing for potty breaks and it’s very secured . providing ample room for safe outdoor play and potty breaks I currently share my home with four well-socialized dogs who are accustomed to welcoming new friends.

About: We were raised with large dogs and had medium dogs as adults. Our senior most dog had illness before he passed so we have experience with senior dogs. Our youngest dog was high energy and the older dog was low energy so we know how to handle both. Our youngest dog was aggressive towards other dogs so we also have experience walking with an aggressive dog. 90% of the time we are at home. We will only be leaving to get food or groceries from the store. We’re homebodies at this point so your babies won’t be alone for more than 2 hours max if necessary. We have a semi fenced yard and a pretty regular schedule. We wake up at the same time everyday and go to sleep around the same time everyday so you’re babies will be cared for as needed!

About: I’m Lily! I am not new to pet care but I am new to Rover, and I am super available to help look after your pups! I grew up with dogs in my home state of North Carolina and have been pet sitting for my neighbors since I was a kid. I’ve had dogs in my care of all breeds, personalities, and sizes. I am a natural animal lover and currently live with a rescue dog. Since moving here after I graduated college, I’ve been a reliable sitter for several contacts in Denver, but all have since moved states, encouraging me to look elsewhere for those who need strong pet care. The dogs in my life have all been my best friends and I can’t wait to make new ones! 🐾♥️ I am currently free on most days for pet care! I am in between day jobs so I have plenty of time and flexibility to watch your pups, especially during the week days. I make sure that all pets are comfortable with me by giving them any space or attention that they seem to require. I also ensure that they are fed on schedule, always have access to water, have proper enclosures, access to outside bathroom usage, and plenty of exercise. I’ll also take in mail, water plants, any other small homecare acts you might need. Most importantly, I’ll make sure your babies get allll the pets and love they deserve. Your pet and me will be very good friends and you can trust I will prioritize their comfort and needs!

About: I've been caring for dogs for over two years through fostering with an animal rescue in Fort Collins. During that time, I fostered more than 10 dogs ranging from 9 week old puppies to 4 year old adults. I've cared for small, medium, and large breeds, giving each dog a safe, structured, and loving environment while they waited for their forever home. Most of my foster dogs stayed with me for 1–2 weeks, which gave me experience helping dogs adjust to new environments, establish routines, and feel comfortable with new people. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel happy and secure. In addition to fostering, I cared for my best friend's dog for eight weeks while she was out of the country. During that time, I managed daily walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection, making sure her dog stayed comfortable and well cared for while she was away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I'll provide attentive, reliable care and treat them like they're part of my own family. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is in safe, caring hands. Pet care fits well into my schedule. I work for a coffee company, and my shifts vary, but I work many evenings. That means I'm usually available for early morning walks, drop-in visits, and daytime care. I also have two days off each week, giving me extra flexibility for longer stays or additional time with your pet. I always make time to provide dogs with the attention, exercise, and care they need, and I'll communicate clearly about my availability to ensure your pet receives reliable, consistent care. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I take the time to learn each dog's routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions, so I can keep their day as consistent as possible. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection. I'm experienced with dogs of all sizes and personalities through my rescue fostering experience, so I understand that every dog has different needs. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a calm, positive environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for from the moment you leave until you return.

About: Hello my name is Soraya and I’m a reliable, and caring dog walker who loves creating calm, positive experiences for every pet I meet. I believe every walk should be more than just exercise, it should be a fun, enriching part of your dog’s day. I’ll provide dependable care, lots of affection, and lots of updates so you can feel confident your baby is in good hands😊 I am a full time college student so I am available afternoons, evenings, and weekends! I understand that plans can change, so I’ll always communicate promptly and do my best to accommodate last-minute requests when possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always keep dogs securely leashed during walks unless we’re in a designated off-leash area with your permission. I pay close attention to my surroundings, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure each walk is tailored to your dog’s energy level and needs. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding medications, feeding, training, or special care. You’ll also receive photo updates and messages so you can feel confident your pet is safe and having a great time!

FAQs for Dog Walking - North Washington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in North Washington on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 13,519 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across North Washington. 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 North Washington. 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 North Washington.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 North Washington. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
