“Patrick was fantastic with our dogs. He was incredibly patient with them and won over our pups who are normally very wary of strangers. He was easy to get a hold of and responded quickly to any messages. Would highly recommend him for your power care needs.”
“Hailee did a great job managing my older, reactive/anxious dog as well as my very excitable puppy! I would definitely recommend her—she followed my detailed instructions carefully and was very patient with both dogs, who each have somewhat complicated needs.”
About: Your dog is SAFE, I am RESPONSIBLE and your dog is FAMILY, to me!!! I am physically fit, full of humor and just waiting for a dog or dogs to care for. I have a cat but he is not interested in outside adventures as he just sleeps, lol I am semi retired so I am flexible. When I'm not at the gym, I walk different dogs at my condo's, just for fun--honestly! I can provide references as well. Your dog is my "child", while in my care. I take this job/responsibly very seriously, which you will soon find out! We will play, run, and walk and quickly develop a love for each other!!
“Jacqueline did such an amazing job with our dogs while we were on vacation. She took them on great walks, was a great communicator, and we will be asking her again to take care of them!”
“I contacted Chase on short notice due to work emergency. She took my dog to her appointment to be spayed. Not only did Chase take my girls but Chase left her number as an emergency contact if the Vet could not reach me. Chase’s communication was great and I could not be happier with the care she gave my pup. Chase even checked back to see if I might need her to pick up my pup after the procedure. I won’t hesitate to work with Chase in the future and am beyond happy with the help and peace of mind she gave me.”
“Brandy clearly loves and cares about pups!!! Our Charlie had a wonderful time walking with her and I'm sure he's looking forward to his next walk with Brandy 🥰🥰🥰 Thank you for making sure Charlie had a great time on his birthday walk since I couldn't do it myself due to being out of town for work. Brandy also sent plenty of adorable pictures of Charlie for me to fawn over so that was awesome!!!”
About: Hi! I’ve been a passionate dog lover and caregiver since I was 18. Beyond walks and cuddles, I’m deeply interested in dog training and hold certificates in clicker training and canine freestyle from the Karen Pryor Academy. For six years, I cared for a family’s pack, including a senior pup with multiple health issues and another with a heart condition. I’m very comfortable administering medications and providing thoughtful, specialized care. I’m especially experienced with short-nosed breeds like Boston Terriers, pugs, and bulldogs as well as working breeds like German Shepherds. Each breed has its own quirks and charms, and I love them all! I also work full time as a bartender, but I’m happy to create a schedule that fits you and your pet’s needs: whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. Important: I do not use or support e-collars, prong collars, or any punishment-based training methods. I am fully committed to positive reinforcement, fear-free care, and your dog’s emotional wellbeing. Above all, your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort come first. From playful enrichment to gentle senior care, I’m here to keep your pup feeling loved, relaxed, and right at home. I’m a full-time bartender and typically work 4–5 evening or night shifts each week. That means my days are mostly free and flexible: perfect for walks, playtime, training sessions, or drop-ins. Because of my schedule, I can often give your pup extra company and enrichment during the daytime hours when many owners are away. I’m also happy to work out a routine that fits your dog’s needs, so they feel loved, comfortable, and cared for even when I’m at work in the evenings. I will adjust my care to follow the rules and structure you already have for your pet and your home. It’s essential that you know you can trust me to respect your space, your routines, and your dog’s needs. My goal is always to keep your pet feeling safe, happy, and comfortable just like you would.
About: Life has always meant enjoying dog relationships. Dogs visiting here at Twin Spruce Cottage are treated as if they are my own, enjoying a home setting & an attentive human. My initial posting with Rover.com was years ago. At that time circumstances changed so it wasn't until this last summer of 2025, that I happily began to board dogs again. I was raised to understand dog behavior and to be comfortable around all types of dogs. Our last dog was 110 lbs of gorgeous (& alpha) Flatcoated English Retreiver. He passed at 14. Now retired full time, I volunteer with dogs when I have the opportunity. I understand how to identify dog behaviors & work with them. I was a volunteer at a canine rescue program from 2001 through 2016, working both in the facility and fostering dogs who were waiting placement. I am capable of handling all sizes of dogs & willing to adjust to the individual needs of your dog. I have a dog friendly yard and do walks each day to keep them busy. There are comfy, upholstered large dog beds to lounge on and toys for play. I also am available for dog walking near me in Skyway WA. Unfortunately, dogs with special needs or who require medication be given are not accepted. I am retiree who walks daily ~ without my own dog these days. Dog walks are provided in daylight hours and are available by appointment. Schedule availability varies. I have a fenced yard which is dog friendly with room to run, lots of shade trees & some artificial turf developed especially for dogs. When in the house no dogs on furniture or beds but comfy dog beds are waiting. Dog guests who are boarding are walked 45-60 minutes per day which is included in daily rates. Your dog will be the only dog in my care while boarding > unless your family has 2 dogs you wish to board. There is a maximum of 2 dogs in care. Daycare is available. For further information on daycare, please contact me. Dog walking is also available, in my local area. Inquiries are welcome.
“Carly is the best walker! My dog is really nervous when I’m out of town and had an accident. Carly went above and beyond and cleaned up after her, which I so appreciate!! Thank you Carly!!”
“Laurel is amazing! We have a highly reactive dog and after meeting the dog only a few times, Laurel was able to confidently work with our dog (even able to get her collar on - something other people cant usually do!) Highly recommend Laurel!”
“Lori was great and was so sweet with Baobao. We really appreciated her coming for a meet and greet so everyone was comfortable with the situation. Baobao was clearly comfortable with her”
About: My love for dogs started when I got my childhood dog Daisy, the sweetest lhasa apso in the world! Since then, I’ve taken care of many dogs, from my friends 3 year old golden doodle to my cousins dogs ( a mix of small chihuahuas and big german shepard’s). I love walking and playing with dogs and making sure they’re fed, clean, and comfy! I also have experience taking care of elderly dogs with more regimented and programmed care routines, including administering medicine in the form of pills or injections. During the year, I’m a para-professional sub, so I have summers off! I’m very flexible, weekdays and weekends and would love to spend as much time as I can helping folks take care of their pets while they work or go on summer vacation :) I offer attentive hands on care and make sure pets are taken care of while also making sure the home is taken care of! With a dog and a cat at my house, I know what it takes to make sure they’re taken care of while maintaining a clean and comfortable space!
About: I love animals but have no fur babies of my own. So I really enjoy showering other people's pets with all the attention and scritches I have to give! I have taken care of all kinds of dogs; from chihuahuas to newfoundlands, puppies to seniors, beautiful mutts to regal standard poodles. I am self employed and typically don't work while I'm pet sitting, which gives me lots of flexibility and frees up my time for your fur babies. I stay with animals in their homes so they feel the most comfortable they can while their people are away. I'm fine with animals sleeping in bed with me if that's what their used to as well.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Renton is $25
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Renton
Emily is literally amazing. My Stella is super shy and doesn’t warm up to new people very quickly. She’s 8 years old and we have never ever left her with anyone that wasn’t family. From the moment Emily walked into our house, Stella had found a new friend. She was so good with her!!! Stella even gave her kisses!!! Thank you Emily for taking such good care of my baby. I hope she gets to see her new friend many many more times!!
Daniel was so prompt and enthusiastic. He clearly cares about taking great care of my elderly dog. Asked lots of really pertinent questions. Helped me get to know the Rover app and system (it was my first time using the app and I misunderstood some stuff). Looking forward to having extra help taking care of my dog.
Natalie is one of the best dog walkers I found on the app. She is experienced in walking large and sometimes reactive dogs and is very patient, assertive and kind with Cila. She is lovely to work with--always extremely communicative and flexible. I cannot recommend her enough! She is a rockstar and Cilantro and I are so lucky to have her as our dog walker!
I hired Sharin because I'm recovering from surgery, and like me Ollie had cabin fever and needed to get out, yet I was in no condition to be walking. Sharin arrived on time and I had Ollie ready to go in his harness. He was really excited to meet her and she was so sweet to him. He's a dachshund so he can bark quite a bit, but he seemed to be relaxed when they left, which made me feel at ease. After the walk, Ollie watched her leave. I definitely would want Sharin to walk Ollie when needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Renton on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 12,544 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Renton. 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 Renton. 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 Renton.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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.
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 Renton. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
