Dog Walkers in Port Blakely, WA

“Krista has been such a great walker for my 2 dogs. Very trustworthy and communicative. She switches up walks and is reliable with scheduling. My energetic dogs can be a handful together and Krista handles them both with confidence and care. She always sends updates and photos, which I really appreciate. I can tell my dogs are excited when they see her, and they come back happy and well-exercised. Also wonderful for checkins- Highly recommend!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​”

About: Hello! I have grown up around animals my whole life, caring for a wide variety of fur babies; horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, even birds. I would love to help you enjoy your travels stress free while providing quality care for your pet(s). I have around 10 years of experience around dogs, and three years ago have become a cat owner. I have experience taking care of animals with difficult care schedules and behavioral conditions, as in the past I have volunteered at animal rescues. I provide a gentle approach around animal’s and aim to provide only the best care for your pet! I am a recent college graduate with a very flexible summer schedule. I will be available to check up on your pet during any day of the week, time is not a problem for me. I am new to Rover but am a reliable caretaker for pets of friends and family. I follow care schedules very diligently to ensure your pet is healthy and happy while your away :)

About: Ever since I was a little girl I have cared for my three dogs. They’re beyond a human’s best friend, they’re our companions! I have a genuine love and passion for our four legged friends and I cannot wait to love and care for your puppies like I love and care for mine! I would like to say I am very attentive to a dog’s needs whether they need a run or a ball thrown, even a good scratch! I’d also say I have a way of gaging if they’re tired and need to head back from a walk. Since I have grown up around dogs, I believe I have ample experience of playing, feeding, cuddling, walking and running with these buddies. I’m a crazy dog lover that would love to help out anyone with a doggie!!

“Eli did a fantastic job with my dog, Spot! Eli showed up on time, paid close attention to details about caring for Spot, appeared genuinely interested in Spot’s personality and needs, was kind and caring while demonstrating an ability to manage Spot with safety in mind. I will definitely rebook with Eli!”

About: When neighbors or friends need a dog sitter, I always raise my hand! I love long walks, playing fetch and canine cuddles. I have experience with all ages (young pup to senior). I am taking time to figure out my next professional chapter. While I do that, I have lots of time to put energy into something I love: being with animals. I'm well-versed in using multiple-dog-lead leashes, spending quality time with pets, and being bad cop when a fur baby tries to get an extra feeding.

“Piper walked our dog this week as one of us was out of town and the other slammed at work. Piper was perfect! Punctual, super communicative, and our dog loved her! (and even one of our cats did too, though she was only over to walk the dog!). Highly recommend!”

“Jacob walked our dog, Bruno while we were out of town for 4 days. He was punctual and his communication was extremely appreciated. This was the first time having someone else walk our dog and my wife and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog in his very capable hands. He took Bruno on different walks each day and sent us pictures of his adventures! We would be thrilled to have Jacob take care or walk Bruno in the future. Thanks for taking such good care of our boy, Jacob!”

“Natalie was on time, conscientious, and great with the pups. She put my mind at ease during a particularly stressful time when I could not walk them daily. I would definitely hire her again.”

Catherine R.

“Mel and Kelly are the best. Louie is a nervous puppy, and their kindness immediately put him at ease. We feel very lucky to have found such a perfect people to help us care for a beloved member of our family.”

About: Hi, I love all pets! I provide the utmost care for your pet in my home or yours. I know how difficult it can be to make plans to leave your fur babies as I have one of my own. When I travel, my plans always involve finding a great person/place to leave my dog. I usually can't relax on a trip unless I know for certain my pets are well taken care off, in other words, taken care of, like I would take care of them. My dog is a rescue that I adopted from a shelter and she has very specific needs, like only going potty on a leash because she is blind. Despite the extra stuff I have to do for her, I wouldn't trade her for the world! She is fantastic with other dogs, cats, and birds, as she has been around all and gets on well with all of the above. I am excited that there is now a service like this where I can leave my dog with a trusted person and offer the same in return. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! -Cyndy I work from home so I’m home all day with my own doggo. We love to have other dogs around. My dog is laid back and not overly social with other dogs so it’s nice to have other dogs around. I have a fenced back yard. My dog is also crate trained. Our neighborhood has sidewalks and we take frequent walks, although she prefers to be carried in her dog backpack.

“Christine was great with our pup! Would highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have helped take care of pets for family, friends, and neighbors for years. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats, including a puppy, and I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I can also do overnights! I have experience with rescue dogs and dogs from abusive households - I understand that every animal has a different personality and needs different levels of patience and attention. I love animals and always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have two dogs- a Black Mouth Cur named Koa who was a rescue from Hawaii and an Anatolian Shepherd/Great Pyrenees Mix named Chung from a shelter in Tacoma. I have a flexible schedule and can work with a variety of pet care needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep them comfortable by following their usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe while their owners are away. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I also have experience with rescue dogs and understand the importance of patience when working with shy or nervous pets.

“Jennifer is a natural with my 2 German Shorthair Pointers. Very professional and trustworthy. I will certainly be a repeat customer. Gigi D”

“Marlene has been very consistent and flexible. I was hesitant to have someone walk my dog. But I can see how my dog gets super excited when, he sees her. She is now walking Iman on a weekly basis. And that gives me peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her 💯.”

About: With over 15 years of active pet-sitting experience and a lifetime of caring for animals, I bring compassion, playful attentiveness, and calm confidence to every home I visit. In 2024, I spent four months road-tripping across the U.S., housesitting along the way and caring for 7 cats and 14 dogs in 10 households—ranging widely in breed, age, temperament, and needs. This experience left me especially comfortable quickly building trusting relationships with new animals and adapting to their individual personalities. I have extensive experience with medically complex pets, including administering pills and liquid medications, giving injections, and providing wound care. I understand the importance of consistent routines, detailed observation, and gentle handling when working with animals who require special attention. Whether caring for playful puppies, senior cats, or anything in between, I offer dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work four days a week, Thurs-Sun in the afternoon and evening. On work days, I am available in the morning and late-evening. Mon-Wed I have full availability for all types of care. I prioritize safety and active stimulation for my own pets and those I care for. In addition to maintaining feeding schedules and security, I make sure those animals in my care receive exercise and mental stimulation, depending on their needs.

About: I've always loved animals since I was a kid, and I'd really enjoy spending time getting to know and taking care of your pets. It's something I genuinely enjoy doing. I usually work in the mornings, so I can take care of your pets in the afternoons or on weekends. Let me know what works best for you! This is my first time using a sitting app, but I own two cats and have taken care of many kittens. I'd love to hear your input on how I can become a better sitter for you. Your pets' well-being is my top priority, and I'm committed to providing the best care.

About: I grew up with a dog, rescued a 12-year old senior with lots of medical needs, foster as often as I can (the weeks-old litters are especially fun!), and have had both small and large dogs. I have experience taking care of young puppies to sweet seniors. My husband and I have 3 seniors (12+) who are all rescues. If you are considering me for a service at our home, please know that your pet will need to get along with them. I look forward to a meet and greet so that our pets can get acquainted. For longer stays, I have a questionnaire that covers lots of details, so I'll be sure to share that with you to cover a lot of questions. Thanks for considering me and I hope to meet you soon! ======= First time considering Rover? Use my discount code for $20 off: NORAK01278 I have an open and flexible schedule and can accommodate to your pet’s typical day. Generally speaking, morning and evening walks, with a longer mid-day run or play. Potty-trained and friendly dogs are welcome to slumber party over here with our 3 seniors (20-25 lbs). If yours is better as a solo dog, let me know your needs and maybe we can find a solution.

About: I grew up around animals, working on my grandparents’ ranch and helping to care for horses, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, cats, and dogs. I’ve always found working with animals to come quite naturally for me. I first began pet sitting during high school, and in recent years I’ve fostered for a few local rescues, taking care of and helping to socialize dogs who are up for adoption. My husband and I adopted our own rescue, Leroy, in February 2020 before the pandemic and are so grateful we did! I work from home during the week, and enjoy breaking up my workday with nature walks. Leroy and I love spending time with other dogs, and especially enjoy taking them with us to explore our beautiful neighborhood! I tend to talk often to Leroy and the dogs I’m caring for, and treat them more like little humans. The dogs I grew up with were treated like members of the family, and I will treat your dog with the same kindness and respect. Since I work from home, my schedule is flexible and adaptable depending on the needs of the dogs I’m caring for. As an example of my routine for my own dog, I usually take Leroy for a morning walk, a lunchtime walk, and another longer hike or beach walk in the afternoon/early evening, plus a short potty walk after dinner. Depending on whether your dog is dog-friendly or not, I can care for them together or separately. I prefer to visit for a meet-and-greet before scheduling any bookings, so that I can get to know you and your pet in your environment. I like to have an in-depth understanding of their typical daily and nightly routine, so that I can stick to it closely during my stay. My goal is for our time together to be as comfortable for your pet as possible, which I think means disrupting their comfort zone as little as possible. I will follow your directions to a tee, and be in contact with updates regularly to keep you informed.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a young girl. I’m an active person looking to add another high energy dog to my beach walks and backyard romps with my Irish Setter. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and ages and don’t mind giving baths, distributing medication or work on training. I’m currently a stay at home mom, every morning I take my dog to swim and run on the beach, or play catch in the backyard. My schedule is fairly flexible while my children are in school and of course they also adore animals and love to play and cuddle dogs of all shapes and sizes. My Irish Setter Deja, is submissive but high energy and would love a playmate to help tire her out. I have quiet spaces in my house to rest with two available dog crates or baskets with beds. Outside we have a doggie splash pad and over a half an acre of open, grassy area to run and play. Our yard is equipped with an in ground electric fence and we have an extra collar that other dogs have adjusted to very quickly. We exercise rain or shine and paws are rinsed after being out in the yard and entire body shampooed and rinsed if we take a trip to the beach. I’m prepared to offer overnight and extended stays, our car has a safety dog gate for safe transportation. Please reach out to me if you have any questions and feel free to stop by and take a look at the property!
