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 it’s 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. **Before sending a request:** I’d love for you to take a quick look through my full profile so you have a good idea of my services, schedule, and approach to pet care. This helps make sure we’re a good fit before setting up a meet & greet! 😊 Since I work a full time job from home, I have a flexible schedule and am willing and able to give your pet the attention it needs throughout the day. Routine comes easy for me, and my work schedule makes it easy to adapt to whatever you need for your pet. 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! **House Sitting Info:** I’m happy to provide house sitting with daytime care and spend as much time as needed with your pets throughout the day, including extended visits and multiple days in a row. My standard house sitting schedule does not include overnight stays, but I occasionally make exceptions on a case by case basis when the circumstances are a good fit. I’ll discuss this with you during the meet & greet and consider factors such as your pets’ needs and schedule, the distance from my home, and my family’s schedule at the time of the booking. If I’m not staying overnight, I’ll typically spend the day with your pets and head home around 9:30–10 PM, returning around 7 AM the following morning. I’m happy to spend as much time as needed during the day to provide plenty of quality time, attention, and care while you’re away, and I’ll work with you to create a routine that keeps your pets comfortable and your home well cared for!
“Brie is the exact type of person you'd want to care for your pet. She is attentive and intuitive to our little guy's needs as they chang from day to day. Our dog is so much happier on the days he gets walks, play time, and snuggles from Brie. She is awesome!”
About: I’ve grown up around all types of animals and breeds mostly pitbulls and I currently have a pitbull of my own that I rescued around six months old and have been raising myself he’s so sweet and gentle I also help take care of my sister‘s pitbull I take him on multiple walks a day while she’s at work and givelots of attention, taking them on walks and playing with them is very important to me, I’ve also house sat for neighbors and took care of their pets, and that included cleaning their horses and chicken stalls and giving there dogs medicine/supplements multiple times a day Because I do not work a traditional job my schedule is completely open and dedicated to your pet. I customize my daily routine entirely around your dog's normal habits. For house sitting, I can stay at your home throughout the day to ensure constant companionship. For drop-in potty breaks, I am highly flexible and can visit whenever your dog needs a relief break most. Your pet will never have to wait long for a walk, a potty break, or a belly rub! When I watch pets at your house, my main goal is being respectful of your home and keeping your pets safe and stuck to their usual routine. I treat your home with total respect and always make sure doors and gates are locked tight. Dogs stay on a leash for walks, and I keep a close eye on them in the yard so they don't get into anything. I'm super clean, I always pick up after them, and I'll send you tons of cute photo updates so you know they’re happy! And I’ll follow any and all rules!
About: I've been a pet owner and I currently help my 5 adult kids with all their fur babies. Currently I live with my daughters 10 yr old great Dane named Lincoln. But when I'm in North Tacoma I help with a 13 yr old Australian Shepard named Dot. 3 yr old Corgi named kenzo. 9 yr old terrier named Kona. 1yr old terrier named Mocha. I am a full time grandma of a granddaughter who'll be 2 in Nov 18th. I will and can do house sitting during the week but it had to include allowing me to bring my granddaughter. She's great with dogs and cats. The whole family has them in various breeds and sizes. Otherwise I am available for weekends Fridays Saturdays Sundays possibly Monday if there's no school. My daughter is a elementary teacher so I was available all summer but now that she's back to work I have limited house sitting days but still open for pet check ins. I am detail oriented. Military brat and former US ARMY vet. So I like a schedule and instructions to follow. It's your fur child so I'm here to help you in anyway I can
“Maureen is Absolutely fabulous! My dog absolutely loves her, and it’s easy to see why. She’s dependable, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She also takes the most amazing pictures, which is such a thoughtful bonus and always makes my day. She is worth every penny, and I feel completely comfortable knowing my dog is in such great hands. I highly recommend her!”
“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.”
“Our girls had a fun time on their walk! Tanaisa is friendly and clearly great with dogs — all smiles on their Rover report card/picture! Clear communication with updates made coordinating their walk easy. Literally going right back on to rebook more walks!!!”
“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. ”
“Krystal was awesome! Stayed longer than scheduled for a dog walk, sent lots of photos, was aware of my pups health special health needs, and was great with communicating about him. I will definitely be calling her again for another walk !”
“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 have always had a dog since I was a kid, when I was a teenager I used to walk dogs around my neighborhood. I also volunteered for an animal rescue. Now, I work for an animal urgent care and have experience with both dogs and cats, as well as own my own dog and cat. I'm currently working full time, so for boarding your pet may be alone while I'm at work unless they are kennel trained they can go to work with me. I will be taking them on walks before and after work. I work 10 hour shifts Monday through Thursday. I have one dog who is young and loves to play all day! I can kennel your pet if needed, as well as my own. I have fenced land for the dogs to run and play.
About: I've had family pets my entire childhood, and continue to care for them when my family was away. I've also always had a pet in my own home! I've cared for dogs of all ages, cats of all ages, and various small animals! I'm currently a stay at home mom, and have a relatively flexible schedule. Walks and hikes are something I already enjoy and would love the company of a pup (that isn’t my own). I treat all animals like they're my own! I've taken care of dogs with anxiety, heart conditions, and recovering from surgery. I'm quick to adapt and react, and love giving animals all the attention they deserve!
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
About: Hi! I’m Emma :) I’m experienced in taking care of a wide variety of pets from a highly reactive Akita to newborn kittens. I also have limited experience with lizards and I’m always ready to learn how to take care of new pets with special needs! My favorite days are when I get to go on hikes, but if your pet lives a less active lifestyle I also enjoy a rest day on the couch. I work in the medical field with a consistent schedule, so my availability stays consistent. I try to match my daily routine on my days off, so your pets’ routine will be very consistent throughout my caring for them. When I care for dogs, I like to spend lots of time playing outside, going on walks or hikes. However, the way I care for your pet will be heavily guided by their individual needs and your usual routine. Being away from their owner can be stressful for your pet, so I strive to keep their daily routine as consistent as possible to make the experience better for them.

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:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
