I highly reccomend Brett!  I got very sick and was in a pretty desperate situation with my newly rescued, very large pitt mix.  I contacted Brett and he got in touch with me right away.  He came at the drop of a hat a few days when Ash really need a walk.  He even came from farther than he routinely helps people.  Very reliable, punctual and kind.  Was easily able to handle my 85 lb pitt mix.  (With bad manners...lol)  I'm very grateful for the help he gave me.  Give him a call!

About: I am looking forward to caring for your pets! I grew up with very big dogs, German shepherds, Cane Corso, and Pitbulls, so I know how to properly give them the care they need. I am also great with small dogs and cats. The past couple years I have house sat and taken dogs on walks for many family members, I am now ready to offer my services to you 😊 I currently work from home so I have lots of time to give your pet the attention they need! Whether that is a long walk or pets inside I will always be sure to communicate effectively, send you updates and photos. I will be mindful and focused on your pet at all times.

I LOVE Helena! I'm new to the area and needed a last minute dog walker. She did a quick meet and greet that day and then was available for the next day. I got tons of pictures and updates and knew my pups were in great hands! Will definitely use her again!

About: I have trained my own heeler puppy since she was 10 weeks old. As well as helped raise another cattle dog until he was 8yo and have cared for and loved many different animals over the years I'm working part time and make up my own schedule. So I will usually have plenty of time for giving animals lots of attention and love. I have my own very sweet 2yo heeler that has been friendly with all dogs. And a sizeable backyard for supervised playtime. I value patience and calmness making the most out of positive reinforcement to promote good behavior.

About: Mike's first job was caring for his neighbors' pets. Mike has had pets since he was 10, and travelled around the world with his dogs and cats during his military career and regional sales role. Roscoe, Higgins, and Freyja are living the dream in the Pacific Northwest with frequent road (work) trips and cross-country visits to the family in Indiana and Massachusetts. Let me know if we can help you with your fur babies. Mike works from home and is an early riser. While the coffee is brewing, all the animals are waking up with bathroom breaks and breakfast. Mike walks Roscoe after breakfast and dinner. Since Roscoe is a senior, we frequently split the two meals into snacks and shorter walks. When the cats are interested, they climb into the backpacks and go see the world with us. I pay attention to the animals' behavior and routines. Consistency in feeding and bathroom breaks has made my pets very comfortable with my work and social routines. I have the flexibility to meet your routines and maintain the consistency you expect with your family while away from home. I recognize when it's time to stop playing, reduce the mileage, or go to the vet.

Madisyn has been doing a great job walking our big rambunctious collie. She is reliable amd communicative and may have some special magic, as our cat who is normally aloof with nonfamily took to her right away and followed her to get more pets.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring pet lover who treats every animal like family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I’m patient, attentive, and always tuned into their needs. I’m also a busy mom, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your loved ones in someone else’s care. I’ll always communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure you have peace of mind. I’d love the chance to meet your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a mom, I’m already used to being active, organized, and attentive, so adding walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout my day feels seamless. I enjoy getting outside, staying active, and making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs to ensure they feel secure and cared for. I’m very attentive during walks and visits, always aware of surroundings and potential risks. You can trust me to treat your home and your pet with respect, care, and responsibility.

About: There's nothing better than meeting a cat or dog for the first time as a stranger and getting to become their buddy. I have no problem taking things slow with cats and dogs who are slow to trust and reading their body language to see if they want pets or they want to be left alone. In the past few years I have taken care of several of my friends' pets when they go out of town. I took care of my friend's six cats at his house over a weekend which included a lot of litter scooping. I cared for my friend's senior chiweenie at my home for a weekend which included taking many potty breaks. I cared for a friend's energetic puppy and young cat for about a week in their home and gave the puppy a lot of daily exercise by playing fetch in a nearby park. I'm available to pet sit and house sit on weekdays and weekends. I can stay overnight to care for your cats, dogs, and house as needed. I can go on walks with your dog for exercise or for frequent bathroom breaks. I can feed your pets at regular meal times and play with them.

About: Hi! I'm Alex. I have experience handling an energetic dog and I have lived with cats my whole life. I am responsive, respectful, and reliable. Your pet is a member of your family and deserves to be treated with all the love and care in the world. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. As an early riser and a lover of outdoor strolls, I can drop in for a walk or a visit as early as 7 a.m. and as late as 5 p.m. Everyone has different guidelines for their pets and every pet is different. My goal is to meet you and your pet's needs and to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and comfortable. I do this by following your instructions to the letter and by maintaining clear and open communication channels.

About: I've been a pet lover since I was a kid. I started with frogs, lizards and snakes, and graduated to cats and dogs. Until I was able to have dogs of my own, I spent over 10 years pet-sitting for friends and family, volunteering in animal shelters, and have even worked in 2 seperate doggy daycares. My MO is always long walks and lots of attention. I have 2 dogs of my own, a cumulative 17 years of pet raising experience. I have experience caring for sick pets and administering medication both orally and subcutaneously. I've had my pups since they were young and would consider them very well trained. If you're looking to work on certain behaviors, I can absolutely work on that during their stay. I have a fenced yard, a safe neighborhood for long walks, and for longer stays, expect your dog to enjoy a nice hike! I mostly work from home, so for daycare your dog(s) would never be alone and would have access to my fully fenced backyard whenever they want. During the week, I can do a long walk during my lunch break, and another after work. Weekends I tend to go hiking, so if your pup enjoys nature, they will for sure have a great time. Due to my variable work schedule, I cannot accommodate recurring appointments. My yard is fully fenced, and I have 2 friendly dogs. Safety is paramount, so dogs would be supervised while in the yard together. If your dog requires a crate, I have both a plastic and soft sided kennel for indoors.

Maria is especially good at coaxing our dog out on walks when the pup doesn't want to go. We also appreciate that she submits Rover cards for each visit and leaves the house exactly as she found it. We feel so much better about being at work all day knowing Maria is spending time with our dog.

Johanna was so kind, caring, and attentive to the needs of my high-energy, herding breed mix puppy, Helly! This was my first experience using Rover, but Johanna made me feel so at ease during our initial meet and greet, answering my questions and quickly winning over my shy puppy! I felt so reassured seeing Helly warm up to Johanna when she is usually nervous meeting new people. Helly was so happy after their first walk together; I will absolutely be booking Johanna again!

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Northwest.
