About: Hi! I’m a dedicated pet sitter who understands that every dog has unique needs, energy levels, and routines, and I take that seriously. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs since my teens, with experience across small and large breeds, senior dogs, and pets who require medication. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with more complex needs, including epilepsy, and I prioritize calm, attentive handling to keep them safe and supported. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” dogs, I focus on structured, engaging care that helps them feel balanced and happy while you’re away, whether its walks tailored to their energy level, mental enrichment and engagement during visits, consistent routines to support behavior, or lots of affection and attention. I’m very active and love being outdoors, so I’m happy to include longer walks, hikes, or more engaging outings if that’s something your dog enjoys. I can also do dog park visits if requested. Since I work a full time job from home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable, consistent care throughout the day. I can also send regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel completely at ease. I treat every pet like my own (I have 3 dogs!), with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care. I’d love to connect and see if I'd be a good fit for you and your pet! *Starting June 2026, for any house sitting requests I will be unable to stay over in the clients home. I am able to house sit any time during the day and stay with your pet as long or as little as needed, however, if you need me more than one day at a time, I will leave your place at night around 10pm and return in the morning around 630-7am.* I work a full time job from home, so I am willing and able to give your pet the attention it needs throughout the day. I am used to taking care of pets so following a routine comes easy for me. My work schedule is flexible, making it easy for me to adapt to whatever schedule you may need for your pet. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent experience for every pet. In your home, I follow all care instructions closely, so your pet stays comfortable and on their normal schedule. I stay aware on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and adjust care based on your dog’s energy level, temperament, and any medical needs. I also keep your home clean and secure so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I've grown up around all different kinds of animals my whole life. From birds and geckos to dogs and cats, I've always been fascinated by all their different personalities and unique biological aspects. The past year I've began dog-sitting on and off and I've always made sure to take care of all their needs no matter how specific or general. I make sure to prioritize that they're properly taken care of and feel safe and comfortable around me. With my interest in biology I also appreciate them from a scientific perspective and try to apply what I've learnt in school about animal biology and behavior whenever needed. I'm currently off of school for the summer and have a pretty free schedule. There's certain things I also prioritize doing like meeting with communities I'm apart of, but I'm still able to free up my schedule whenever I'm needed elsewhere. During the school months my schedule is a bit more strict around the afternoons but I'm still willing to work on weekdays if it lines up with my schedule. Currently I'm self employed too so I'm able to do my other job on my own time which is very flexible. I currently take care of my cat and 3 dogs which are all properly fed twice a day. I like to play with them whenever they're up for it and I even take my cat for walks everyday since he loves being outside. I'll always respect whatever your schedule/routine is for your animals and make sure they're well fed and happy.

“Our doggie loves his walks with Sarah! He recognizes her car, and actually watches for her when he thinks the time is right. She's punctual and friendly, and an obvious dog lover.”
“Krystal was very caring and took care of our 6 our old maltipoo Ivy's anxiety with ease. Ivy came. home happy after finishing the walks. Krystal is really an expert and she will be our go to person next time we need someone to care for Ivy.”
“Kelsey is fantastic! Kelsey has been walking our dog on a regular basis for the past four months. She is responsive and has even been willing to walk my dog at the last minute. She always sends cute pictures of my dog which puts a smile on my face while I am at work. She has watched our dog when we were out of town for four days. I highly recommend Kelsey and will continue to have her as a friend to our dog. ”
“Jocelyn is prompt, friendly, reliable, and our pup loves going on walks with her. I feel like I can very safely trust my dog in her care, which means everything. Highly recommend!”
“Brie is incredible! We feel so grateful to have found her. She provides a very high level of care to our dog and is excellent about communicating important and cute details with us. Her level of work ethic, attention to detail, and emotional intelligence are beyond impressive. Brie is a rare type of person that emits joy, care, and compassion into everything she does. We are forever grateful to her for being so good with our little dude!”
About: I am a Vet Tech of multiple years now recently working from home!! I have lots of flexibility and last min accommodations. I love all animals with a passion. I can care for just about any animal in any health. I will treat your animals as if they are my own, give them each special love and attention. I can medicate if prescribed, can do any activity level with them. You name what your pet needs and I can do it! I’m happy to keep you connected to your pet while you’re away and give frequent updates if desired. I have worked with nearly all breeds, temperaments, anxieties, illnesses, ages, medical conditions under current veterinary care, personalities, quarks, and behaviors. You and your pets trust is my number one objective, love and play is second! I will take care of any needed plants/garbage/recycling while you’re away, as needed. I have an old boy black lab. He is extremely calm and reserved. He’s friendly with other animals and just walks away if he is annoyed. I also have an adopted a German Shorthair Pointer, 3 years old. He is a ball of fun and has a personality out of this world. He has brought a lot of joy into our home. Your pets well-being is as important as my own pets. I strive to stick to routines and schedules to make your pet as comfortable as possible. I love to snuggle and they’re always welcome in the bed or on the couch. That is if you allow! I also respect crate training and can stick to strict schedules if needed (Note: Rover has me add my personal animals to my profile. This does not mean that they would ever come with me to a stay or drop-in visit/walk. It’s is just for you to get to know me more) Cancellations happen, if you let me know within reason I am happy to work with you. Though, I do present with a cancellation fee due to being burned in the past with long term reservations cancelled within 24 hours. I am happy to work with you if you communicate. I recently started working from home (11/2024). I am very flexible with all sorts of availability now. Not many restrictions. I live in the heart of Ridgefield. I am able to travel as far as La Center, Salmon Creek or Vancouver. Woodland inquiries are encouraged, although depending on distance, I may not service your address. (Please don’t hesitate to ask questions) I find that your pets are more comfortable at your home but am willing to bring them to mine. Drop in visits seem to be the most comfortable as it can even be strange for them having someone new stay in their home
“We have been rebooking dog walks with Zoie for the past month because our pup loves her! I really appreciate how Zoie is flexible and available even when I schedule last minute. Zoie sends photos of our pup and lets me know when she’s with her. We will continue to depend on Zoie for dog walks!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for several years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m also patient and attentive, which helps me work well with shy or high-energy dogs. I take pride in being reliable and detail-oriented, and I always follow instructions closely to make sure each pet gets the exact care they’re used to. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, giving extra attention, or just providing a calm presence, I treat every pet like they’re my own. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they need. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care throughout the week and on weekends. Since I manage my own business, I can adjust my schedule as needed and prioritize your pet’s routine, making sure they’re cared for consistently and not left alone for long periods. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure pets feel calm and secure in their environment. I’m attentive, reliable, and keep a close eye on behavior, especially during walks or feeding times. I also communicate regularly with updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
About: I've loved all sorts of animals since I can remember. I was the girl who brought stray dogs and cats home to be loved and cared for. I currently have a senior chihuahua and a orange cat called Keiko. I've always had dogs and cats while raising my kids, big and small. At this time, I am not working outside of the home. I would like to make petsitting, dog walking, animal care, my fulltime job. I volunteer once a week for two hours for furry friends. I also dog walk for one senior who has two dachschunds. I have a fenced yard. I make sure they always have water and excercise. I try to be as attentive to their needs as possible.
About: I house and pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors throughout college. I grew up with small dogs (chihuahuas, dachshunds), indoor and outdoor cats, and fish. I’ve house sat both small and big dogs (golden retrievers, huskies, chihuahuas) and cats. I have experience in caring for senior dogs (ex. medication, helping them up and down stairs, etc). I also have experience in caring for anxious dogs. My schedule is flexible so I am able to care for pets that may need more attention than typical. I travel often so I don’t get to be with my own pets as often as I’d like so pet sitting gives me a way to still be around and connect with animals. I am very attentive and adaptable. Every animal is different and requires unique care depending on their personality. Some may need more attention while others are independent, I try to see this and meet each pet where they are comfortable. If I’m pet sitting in someone’s home I try to fit into their pets routine as much as possible, prioritizing the pets comfort. If there are any concerns at all, changes in behavior, etc I will contact the client asap.

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 Pioneer. 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 Pioneer.

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 Pioneer. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
