About: I’ve taken care of family, friends and neighbors dogs since i was younger. I love learning new things about your dog or cat and finding ways i can help. My personal dog has diabetes, I have to give her insulin shots every morning and night after she eats. I’ve been giving her shots for about 3 years now. If your dog needs any shots I have personal experience giving them. I work part time, but i’ve had a lot more time on my hands, so i would love to help take care of your dog and or cat. I feed, play, take walks, bathe, cuddle, and give lots of attention when they want it. I give them their space when they want it.

About: I have my own fur baby Michi! I am great at brushing and grooming long haired dogs. We’ll have lots of cuddles and treats and belly rubs. We have a dog park we frequent a lot if you would like your dog to get some outdoor fun. Your fur baby will be spoiled with love and go home exhausted from a fun day of playing. I work from home so your babies will have constant interaction and attention. My dog Michi is super friendly and is always excited to have a new friend to keep company while their parents are away. I would love to send pictures and even provide phone call updates on how your baby is doing while in my care. Huge dog love ?

Tara is the sweetest. I was able to ask lots of questions and feel very comfortable with what to expect. She loved on my dog before heading out which allowed me to know she was in good hands. Will be booking again for sure.

About: Growing up, I took my childhood dog on multiple walks a day and played with him outside to keep him exercised. I also enjoyed walking dogs of family friends. I am currently in college and unemployed so my schedule is very open. I have a lot of free time to pet sit, dog walk, and do drop in visits I like to make sure pets have gotten plenty of exercise and many chances to use the bathroom. If they have a scheduled time they eat meals I will feed them then and if not I will make sure they are fed atleast 3 times a day.

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, and 10 years of expertise with cats, animals have always been a central part of my life. I truly love working with pets and take pride in making them feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m happy to help with walking, feeding, playtime, and even special care needs for puppies, seniors, or shy animals. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years because they know their pets are in great hands. I currently work part time. I’m looking to make some extra money. I have 2 pups my self. I know how difficult it is to find a good sitter. I will treat these animals as my own. I will respect all rules as I watch your sweet babies. I’m very punctual. I understand a clean area is very important for our fur babies!

About: I had previously stated in my profile, that I was called to animals since I was a little girl. I remember walking home from school and would gain the trust of a stray cat that followed me home. Animals of all species have been a staple in my childhood and adult home until this day. I am also a registered nurse whose specialty landed in senior care. I have a natural ability to connect with the elderly and understand the stage of life they are in and the psychology that comes with it. Through this, I have also been able to be a good advocate for my patients and their families. My husband and I currently have a senior cat that has cognitive decline that I was able to pick up on, as well as my suspicion of kidney disease. Through this knowledge, and with our vet, she is thriving now through patience and dedication.to her needs. This is not easy for us. But, she is our little girl. My nursing has also been an huge benefit to better serve and care for all of my little guys. Hamsters in my home have suffered all diseases from a stroke, cancer, kidney failure and heart failure etc. All of which received the best medical attention and best dedicated care until they crossed the rainbow bridge. I am grateful to see how my nursing has also enhanced my ability to better serve animals as well as humans. My heart is full of unconditional love and kindness. I am grateful to be of service to any walk of life. I have currently obtained a new nursing position within my expertise in senior care, allowing me the flexibility to work remote, since my journey moving forward needs to stay dedicated to serving animals, including my own. Our motto in this house is "these are our children, regardless of the size, they will be given the best life they deserve". We do have a fully fenced yard, though we currently do not have a dog. Any animal that comes in our care, will be treated the same as we treat our own. The cats, the chinchillas, and the hamsters can mingle amongst each other in our house. They actually each have a food bowl for each species side by side in the kitchen. The house is clean, the cages are clean and the environment is safe for any animal that enters. Time, dedication, discipline, love and patience exists in this house.

About: I have pet sat many times through my life, including puppies. I am very familiar with the puppy stage and how little sleep you get 🫣😴🥵 I have owned cats for the last ten years, including fosters. One of them was a geriatric cat, so I am familiar with administering meds to the most difficult of cats. I currently have an ex feral, so I am familiar with the patience needed to care for pets of all types. I currently work full time, so I am really only available for last minute trips or work on the weekends. I would love to be your regular day trip/weekend trip sitter! I will make sure your pet receives the type of love that they are used to receiving. I am a lover of all animals and I HATE leaving mine home alone, so I will make sure that even though they miss you, they will still know they are loved, cared for, fed, watered, and cleaned 🙂‍↔️💖

I’m always anxious finding the right sitters and walkers for my pups since my Shih Tzu is close to being 13 years old. Mackenzie and Brenden are seriously the best. They came to meet the dogs initially before the first booking just to get to know them and so they knew any details they needed on how to care for them. They send tons of pictures and my dogs seems so happy when I get home from work . Thank you guys for being great 💗

Dog Walking FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Northwest dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

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.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
