“Michael did a great job taking care of my dog Kit while I was across the country. I had never used a service like Rover before, and was nervous initially, but after a couple days I was completely comfortable, and would absolutely utilize Michael’s services when I’m out of the country in the future!”

“Ludo, who I adopted two months ago, has been adjusting and having some accidents. Bruce has been so communicative and has cleaned up his accidents even though I absolutely do not expect him to and have not asked him to. I cannot express how grateful and relieved I am to have him coming to walk Ludo while I am working. I know my special needs dog, who has seizures, is in great hands!!!!”

“Madelyn was great with Val and took great care of her for her hour check-in. She was very communicative and our pup was one happy, tired girl when we got home. We’ll definitely reach out to Madelyn for help in the future!”

About: Gregarious, tidy, animal-obsessed. I bring good company, clean habits, and unwavering dedication to loving the pups. Every walk is a diplomatic mission; every belly rub, a solemn civic duty. <3 Freshly transplanted from NYC to Seattle, I can think of no better way to explore this lush, leafy city than with a four-legged local in tow. Dogs make excellent companions and give the best excuses to touch grass. I keep spaces clean, safe, and cozy, follow each pet’s routine, and provide walks, play, and affection. I'll keep a watchful eye on their well-being, and provide a calm, loving environment where they feel secure.
About: "🚨 PLEASE NOTE: I am only available for walks/drop-ins between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM daily." I grew up with dogs and cats and have had my own cat. I’ve never owned a dog, but I have experience caring for them and I’m signing up to be a dog walker. I’ll follow your schedule and instructions. I work part-time, so I have flexible hours during the day for dog walking and pet care. I can usually fit in walks and drop-ins around my work schedule. I mainly do dog walking. I stay outside or in the areas the owner approves, keep dogs on leash, and follow any rules you set for your home or neighborhood. I don’t bring dogs to my place.
About: I'm incredibly detail-oriented and used to managing everything from high-energy "zoomies" to meticulous grooming needs. I’d love to give your dog the exact level of care, structure, and affection they deserve while you're away. Hi, I'm passionate about providing a safe, active, and reliable home-away-from-home for your furry family members. I thrive on routine, and I ensure that the dogs in my care enjoy a balanced mix of structured downtime, high-energy play, and plenty of affection. Because I maintain a consistent Monday–Friday work schedule, your pup will enjoy a peaceful, predictable daytime environment, followed by a fantastic afternoon adventure. The very second I get home at 4:00 PM, it’s all about the dogs—we head straight to the park for a favorite game of fetch and a refreshing, long walk to burn off energy and explore. When the weekend hits, the schedule opens up completely! Saturdays and Sundays are entirely dedicated to my canine guests, meaning they get my absolute, undivided attention, extra long adventures, and all the belly rubs they could ask for. Leaving your pet and your home in someone else's hands takes a lot of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. When I watch your pet in their own environment, my top priorities are maintaining their established routine and keeping your home secure.
About: Leave with confidence. Come home to a dog who’s been thoughtfully cared for and a clean, welcoming home. I look after the daily details so you can enjoy your time away, knowing your dog and your home are in experienced hands. I bring more than 10 years of experience caring for pets and homes across North America and Europe, backed by 54 five-star reviews on TrustedHousesitters. Families have trusted me with beloved companions and cherished homes, and I take pride in the lasting relationships we’ve built. I’m also Fear Free Certified and trained in Pet First Aid. For your dog, thoughtful care means familiar routines, patient companionship, and attention to their individual needs. My Fear Free approach focuses on reducing fear, anxiety, and stress by recognising body language, respecting their comfort, and letting trust develop at their pace. From play sessions and enriching walks to gentle support for senior dogs, I tailor my care to your dog’s personality, energy, and needs. For your home, it means treating your space, belongings, and privacy with respect. I’m meticulous about tidying up after myself, following plant-care instructions, and attending to the household details we agree on. My approach is “leave no trace”: returning your home as clean and orderly as I found it, ready for you to settle back in as if you’d never left. That peace of mind starts before you leave. During our meet and greet, we’ll talk through your dog’s habits and needs, home instructions, emergency contacts, and your expectations for the stay. We’ll agree on arrival and departure times and how you’d like to receive updates. While you’re away, you can expect thoughtful messages and photos that show how your dog is doing, along with prompt communication if anything needs your attention. I’d love to hear about your dog, your home, and what an ideal sitting experience would look like for you. Please note: I have a severe cat allergy and can only care for dogs in homes where cats do not live. Please let me know if cats have previously lived in or occasionally visit your home before we arrange a meet and greet. I work remotely as a consultant, which allows me to spend much of the day at home with the dogs in my care. That means regular companionship, time for walks and bathroom breaks, and a familiar presence between activities. I plan each stay around your dog’s established routines, balancing my work with their meals, exercise, rest, and attention. Before confirming a booking, we’ll discuss how long they’re comfortable being alone and any needs that require closer supervision, so we can make sure my schedule is a good fit. We’ll also coordinate arrival and departure times for a thoughtful handover. Whether you’re away for a weekend or several weeks, my aim is to provide a steady, reassuring rhythm for your dog and peace of mind for you. I care for dogs in their own homes, surrounded by familiar scents, favourite resting spots, and the routines they know. As a Fear Free Certified sitter trained in Pet First Aid, I pay attention to both physical safety and emotional comfort. Before you leave, we’ll review your dog’s care instructions, walking equipment, household boundaries, veterinary contacts, and emergency arrangements. I’m careful with doors and gates, follow your handling instructions, and give dogs space from unfamiliar animals on walks. I respect their body language and let affection and trust develop at their pace. You’ll receive thoughtful photo updates and prompt communication about anything concerning. I treat your home, keys, belongings, and privacy with care, follow agreed plant and household instructions, and leave the spaces I use clean and orderly. My goal is for you to feel comfortable handing over the keys—and happy when you come home.
“Jeffrey was such a blessing. Reliable, dog-loving, and hard working. Jeffrey accepted all the walks I’d posted during my travel, interacted kindly with my mother in law, and completed every walk. Jeffrey also took time to meet me and my dog ahead of my trip.”


“Julie is responsible, flexible, and truly cares for my dog, Skywalker. I recently rescued him and am working through crate training/mild separation anxiety, and she’s done a fabulous job helping to patiently train him when she comes to walk him. On top of all that, she’s always quick to respond to any communication from me, highly recommend her!”

“Lincoln’s dog walking needs changed several times while I was out of the country as I had friends helping with his care, and Brent was about to shift his walking schedule as needing quite easily. Always super easy to work with Brent!”


About: In the past, I had a chihuahua for 4 years. I loved him with all my heart and always took him on long walks which he too very much enjoyed!! Unfortunately, he is now staying at a family friends since I am away in college. I'm a university student who absolutely loves all pets. I always enjoy nature and often take walks around the park by myself and it is sometimes very lonely. Hopefully, I can enjoy walks with a fuzzy friend :) I am mature, safe and will take care of your dog really well, that he/she will come home smiling! I also live near many parks! I’m very flexible with my schedule so feel free to always hit me up for walking or dog boarding!
“Katlyn was punctual and flexible with time. She was very patient getting to know our pup, who doesn't get a lot of visitors. Great communication and feedback after walk. We will book again!”

“Coconut loves walking with Liza! She cares for Coco really well, sending lots of photos and detailed updates. Highly recommend Liza for dog walking and drop-ins, and plan to book again.”

“Justin was an incredibly reliable walker for our sweet Milli girl. He made sure to meet her beforehand, was very communicative throughout the duration of our booking, and never went even slightly under the 30 minutes we booked (often going a bit over). We will definitely book Justin again, and recommend him highly to others looking for dog walking services.”

About: I am so excited to care for your pets! I grew up in a house full of furry friends, so caring for them is second nature to me. During the last five years that I lived in Bozeman, MT, I became an experienced pet sitter and quickly became the go-to person for friends and neighbors whenever they needed someone reliable to watch their pets or pop in for check-ins. I’m working towards getting a bigger place and being able to adopt a pet of my own one day, so getting to hang out with your animals is truly the best part of my week! Because of that, your pets will get my absolute undivided attention, tons of affection, and the same care I’d give my own pets. I’m currently a law student, so my schedule is way more flexible than the typical 9-to-5 worker. I study from home a lot, which means I have plenty of availability throughout the day for midday drop-ins, flexible potty breaks, or just keeping your pet company. I am also totally focused on hitting my 10,000 steps every day, so you can count on your pet getting some excellent walks. Whether your pet needs a structured routine during the day or just a reliable buddy to break up their afternoon, I can easily fit them right into my daily routine! When it comes to caring for your pet, my top priorities are safety, trust, and following your routine or schedule. I really appreciate clear, detailed instructions, so if you need things done a specific way, I will follow any rules and schedules exactly as they are written. I am a big believer in communication, so you can expect regular updates and photo check-ins from me so you always know how things are going. If I am house-sitting, I will treat your home with total respect.

“Logan is a wonderful pet lover! He takes really sweet care of my pup with special needs and communicates frequently and well! So glad we found him and my dog adores having a visit from Logan!”

“Dana is great with Allie and available to take her at short notice. I’m so grateful to have met Dana on the app / she’s definitely someone I trust a lot Thank you Dana”

Great communication. Figuring out walks on such short notice required working with a couple of walkers and Veronica worked with me to find a solution. Also had to make some adjustments on the fly due to a death and she was very understanding. Provided pictures every day and played with Leo when the walk ended, if there was time.

Chowder is OBSESSED with Carly!! She is so kind and really loves and understands all his Golden quirks. So appreciate her help while I was away. Chowder has made a new best friend and I feel confident and safe when they are together. Also really appreciate all the pics and check ins! Will definitely be using Carly again and again

Nancy was absolutely wonderful! She was right on time, super friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable about dogs. I have a Blue Heeler, which is a high-energy breed that needs someone who understands their personality and exercise needs, and Nancy clearly knew what she was doing. She was patient, attentive, and made me feel completely comfortable trusting her with my dog. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and enjoys what she does. It’s such a relief finding someone who is both reliable and experienced. I had a great experience with Nancy and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again!

Sierra and I moved a bit further away, but are so happy that Emily is still able to come over for potty breaks, exercise, and belly rubs. Especially appreciate Emily's help this week while I was out of town. She intercepted Sierra from my coworker at the office and walked her home. I always feel confident that Sierra is in good hands.

Elena does such a great job with my dog, and makes coordinating/communicating updates and needs easy. She checks in right before she heads out to pick up my dog for a walk, takes many photos and videos, and provides great report cards, making me feel extra reassured that my dog is well loved while I’m away at work. Would highly recommend!!

Sami was great with our little Frenchie-mutt. She came by before we left to meet Mabel and us. During walks, she kept us updated with her activity and sent a few photos. Sami was also able to spend time after the walk to give Mabel a few pets and treats. Highly recommended!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Seattle is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $46 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 November 2026, there are 12,247 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Seattle. 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 Seattle. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Seattle 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.
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 Seattle. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
