“My black lab Sophie loves Judson! She gets so excited to see him for her walks. Judson has been so great to work with her on training during their walks with a focus on her reactivity to other dogs. So glad to have Judson in Sophie's world!”

“Shelbi has been great when getting to know me and my pup. She came over when I needed her unexpectedly to support my puppy when I had to work late. I’m beyond grateful for her help and enjoy knowing my puppy will get to spend time walking with her when I can’t.”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs all my life. Kittens, puppies, senior pets, you name it! I currently have an adult dog (who I’ve raised as a puppy) and had a senior cat so I’m very aware what responsibilities come with younger to older pets. I’ve also looked after friends and neighbors cats and dogs while they’re away. Walking dogs is also my favorite thing to do! Overall I stay local since I have my own dog to care for. I also work remotely so my schedule is very flexible during the day. I’m very aware of any new environment that I’m in. I believe that you should respect everyone’s space the way I would want my own space to be. Understanding boundaries is also vital since everyone and their pet(s) are different. Making sure you and your pet feel safe makes me better at my job!

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life, and caring for them has become second nature. With years of hands-on experience raising and looking after dogs of all ages—from playful pups to calm seniors—I’ve learned how to provide the love, attention, and structure each one needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and cared for like they’re my own. im currently working 9:30am-6:30pm usually get lunches around 1pm-2pm (1 hour) mon-fri im available weekdays and weekends. im available to stay overnight or come in for daily visits as well :) I provide pet care that balances safety, comfort, and fun. I always make sure pets are in a secure environment, follow feeding and medication routines carefully, and keep a close eye on their well-being. Along with basic care, I also focus on enrichment through play, walks, and one-on-one attention to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. My goal is to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happily engaged while in my care.

About: My family had a couple dogs growing up. I don’t remember a lot about the first but I would walk the second dog whenever I could. There wasn’t a time where I didn’t enjoy walking with her. The next thing I know, my aunt left behind a cat for us. I fed him each morning and night. He was a shy cat but happened to warm up to me quickly. Whenever he got a chance, he’d lay down on my lap. My family ended up with a Rover account. I walked those dogs and fed them whenever one of my family members couldn’t. Recently, we got a couple of cats. I feed these babies each morning and night. Typically I would do their litter too, yet, my family has the blessing of a cat genie. With every animal I’ve met, I make sure they get the attention they deserve, need, and want! Petting and playing around with cats and dogs is one of my favorite things to do. Or I could do the opposite if your animal doesn’t like to be pet! My schedule is more or less flexible, as I am currently working at in-n-out as of recently and I am in school as well. All of my classes are online at the moment. I am available for any kind of sit or drop in, whether it’s for just one day or for a long while. I like to go climbing and bowling with my boyfriend and friends but I’m stunted with a minor foot problem for the time being so I’m not able to preform those activities as i usually would. I’m currently in the recovery process with physical therapy and I’m hoping i can get better soon. Unfortunately I won’t be able to watch any clients’ pets at my house. In my home, I put my best effort towards my pets to make sure they feel safe in our home. I play with them and let them rest where they find it comfortable. In any of my clients homes, I respect their wants and needs for how their animal should be taken care of. I ask that someone tell me if their dog is potty trained, if they are allowed on couches/furniture, and how often they need to be taken on a walk. I’ll give a lot of play time, pets and belly rubs to the dogs and cats!

About: I've always loved animals and knew I wanted to work with them in some capacity. Since I was a kid I've been pet sitting for neighbors, or friends/family and then I started walking dogs in college to make extra money. Now, I have 4 years expirence working with dogs and cats and the occasional ferret and sugar glider as a Veterinary Technician. Your fur baby(babies) will be in safe hands with me and I will love and care for them as my own. I'm available most Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays for drop-ins, playtime or walks with your pets, feel free to message me to set something up <3 Currently I do not have availability for overnight stays. I make sure everyone gets fed, has fresh clean water, I can medicate if needed, I love engaging in interactive play and taking doggos for walks! I have experience reading animal body language too so I know when to take it slower or let them come to me if they seem anxious.

About: I love animals and animals love me! Animals have always been a part of my life since I was a kid. I grew up with and have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, ducks, birds, a frog, horses, and a Llama! I’m comfortable with any kind of critter. I currently have 2 sweet rescue dogs, a big old cat & two teenage kitties, and a rabbit at home (she lives outdoors). They all love other animals. I am an approved Foster parent for a couple Rescues, and with the Humane Society. I live in a big house with hardwood floors on nearly 2 acres of fully fenced property that’s close-in Vancouver right off of I-5. We have 1 1/2 acres dedicated as a Sniffspot Private Dog Park called “Nature in the City Private Dog Park”. Your pup(s) will get lots of outside off-leash playtime in an enriching, securely fenced area, if they want it! Your fur babies will be loved and well cared for, and feel at home away home. ❤️ *For dog walking, I can offer much more than just a leashed walk around the neighborhood. I can pick up your pup(s) and bring them to my private fully fenced dog park and let them run, explore, and sniff off-leash! I will do this for the same dog-walking rates. 😊 I work part-time outside my home, only one mile away, and I make my own schedule. I offer daycare and overnight boarding in a home environment, and dog walking-including complementary off-leash playtime in my private 1 1/2 acre dog park! We have a peaceful, loving home environment with my two friendly dogs, 3 cats, and my 13 year old son who loves animals and is very good with them. Our animals, and yours, are family and are treated that way! Your pup(s) will get lots of love and outside time on our fenced property, (if they want it).

About: I've taken care of animals professionally and personally since I was a kid. Starting with cats, then getting dogs and learning to train them. In high school I started getting into bigger and smaller pets - rats and then horses. I even have experience with caring for fish. If you've got it, I can learn how to care for it just like you would! I work at a vet ER, so I can do late night check ins for the first half of the week or almost anytime on my weekends (Thursday, Friday, Saturday). How you care for your pet is how I will care for your pet. Tell me all the nitty gritty details and I'll do everything I can to go above and beyond to make sure your animals get only the best.

About: I’ve had pets of all kinds including dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals, birds, and invertebrates. I’ve also worked at a pet store for the last year and a half so I have some knowledge on freshwater fish as well as experience administering medications to animals. I’m currently only working part time, about 12-18 hours a week, so I have more than enough time to check on and play with your pets! I’m super flexible and want to do anything I can to make sure your pets are as comfortable and happy as they possibly can be while their humans aren’t home!

About: I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals, including cats, dogs, horses, rabbits, mice, fish, land crabs, amphibians, guinea pigs, and more. I’m comfortable caring for animals of all sizes, personalities, and temperaments, whether they’re energetic, calm, reactive, nervous, or affectionate. I’m skilled at reading animal behavior, staying calm in challenging situations, and adapting to each animal’s individual needs. My priority is always to provide a safe, comfortable environment where every animal feels secure, respected, and well cared for. I tend to focus on being present with the animals rather than taking pictures, but I’m always happy to provide updates during my visits. I also tidy up after your pets as part of my care, and I offer additional housekeeping services for an extra fee if needed. If you’d prefer to avoid Rover’s service fees, we can also discuss the option of arranging future bookings directly. Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I’m able to plan my day around visits, feedings, walks, medication administration, and check-ins. I’m organized, reliable, and understand the importance of consistency in an animal’s routine. Whether a pet needs early morning care, midday attention, evening visits, or overnight stays, I communicate clearly about my availability and ensure I can fully commit to the care schedule before accepting a booking. I treat every pet as a priority and make sure they receive the time, attention, and care they need. I provide attentive, low-stress care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of opportunities to play, explore, and relax. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and any special care needs to help them feel settled and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible, providing companionship, exercise, supervision, and personalized attention while respecting household rules and preferences. I’m comfortable working with pets of all sizes, ages, energy levels, and temperaments, and I focus on creating a positive experience where every animal feels safe, understood, and well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Orchards is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $33 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 6,244 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Orchards. 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 Orchards. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Orchards after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
