“Eleanor is just wonderful! She cares about your pet and is so easy to communicate with! We don’t have to worry at all when she is taking care of our dog. Highly recommend!”
“Adam is responsive, caring and attentive! He goes above and beyond the call of duty (eg walked Finn for an extra 15 minutes to let him enjoy the weather) I would recommend him to anyone who loved their pup!”
About: I'm a proud owner of a shiba named Bob, and if you know anything about shibas it's that they are stubborn! He has taught me both patience and perseverance - patience when he's sniffing pee-mail and perseverance when he refuses to answer nature's call. However, he stays home with my partner while I dog/cat sit :). I love getting to know new dogs/cats. I am available for as many walks as your dog wants, as well as play time. I love cuddle time, play time, and chill time with your baby. Safety is my number one priority for your baby. As a dog walker/sitter, I will give your fur baby the same love, attention and patience that Bobs enjoys. Your pup and I will have lots of fun while we get to know each other.
“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!”
“Erin is so reliable and always goes above and beyond. I’m so happy I’ve finally found someone I can trust and don’t have to worry about with my dog! I’ve been using her weekly since our first walk :)”
“Leah is very responsive, getting right back to me when I contact her, which I really appreciate. She gave Josie a lovely walk, and then fed her when she got back. She took very good care of Josie, and I will definitely use her again.”
“Emily has walked our dog several times over the past month or so and has been so good with him. He is a little nervous around strangers, and she is kind and patient and he has grown to be comfortable around her. I also appreciate her communication, promptness, and friendliness.”
“Amanda filled in last minute! Rowdy fell in love with her at the meet n greet and he was so excited when she showed up again for his walk! We feel so lucky that we found Amanda! She’s fabulous!”
“Sarah was amazing with my dog! He was very anxious and had some adjustment issues, and she communicated with me through it all and was very patient managing through it. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I've been caring for dogs for nearly 20 years. Growing up with three family dogs taught me how to care for pets through every stage of life. From daily walks and playtime to swimming, feeding, and plenty of affection. I also grew up in a neighborhood full of dogs and regularly walked, checked in on, and cared for neighbors' pets while their families were away. Friends and family have continued to trust me with their pets over the years, and for four years I lived with my roommate's dog, helping with daily care and treating him like he was my own. I'm comfortable following routines, adapting to different personalities and energy levels, and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. As a freelance photographer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I'm typically available Monday through Friday between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for walks and drop-in visits, and I'm often able to accommodate weekend requests as well. Whether your dog is ready for a long walk or your cat just needs some company and care while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. You can also expect thoughtful updates and plenty of photos during each visit. I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy while you're away! I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll always respect your space, follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, and care for your home with the same attention and respect I would my own. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning up after walks, scooping the litter box, or simply spending quality time with your pet, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
“Maria was great! She showed up on time every day and sent photos and updates of my dog's walks. He looked happy, and I'm glad he got to get outside during my work day. I'll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Mary Elizabeth was very responsive and sent lots of pictures and updates when watching our 12 week old puppy. Would definitely ask her to pet sit again in the future!!”
“Akiko continues to be so reliable and communicative. She takes the best pictures and writes the cutest recaps. Our dog adores her. Would give 10 stars if I could. Highest recommendation.”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Seattle is $25
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Seattle
She was amazing with Enzo! She kept us updated throughout every visit, sent lots of pictures, took him on great walks, and genuinely seemed to enjoy spending time with him. Enzo was comfortable and happy with her, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. She was also very positive, communicative, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!
Jade was amazing and so knowledgeable, she made Ivy (and me!) so comfortable and confident during our meet & greet, and Ivy had a great day with her and her dog Mojo. I got lots of updates with fun videos and cute pics, and I came home to a happy, tired, well-cared for puppy, which is just the best feeling! Thanks Jade!
We had a great experience with Yiying! She took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, which made me feel really comfortable leaving my dog in her care. She was punctual, attentive, and did a great job with his walk, feeding, and making sure he had fresh water. I really appreciated how caring and responsible she was—would definitely book with her again when needed!
Ariana took such wonderful care of our dog, Leo as our recurring dog walker during the week! We truly would not have been able to be full-time working dog “parents” without this support and we felt safe and calm knowing Ariana would offer Leo the exercise and playtime he needs during the day. We are moving out of the area, otherwise we would have happily continued working with Ariana!
Eva is such a gem! She patiently figured out a key issue with my leasing office on the first day. My dog can be a little shy, but he seemed to have a great time with Eva. She was very responsive and took great pictures! She goes above and beyond and I’ll definitely be reaching out to her in the future 🐾
Olivia has walked and cared for Oogie countless times, and she has been consistently reliable, thoughtful, and wonderful with him. I always feel comfortable knowing he’s in Olivia’s care, and I appreciate the updates and attention she gives him each time. Oogie is always happy afterwards, which says plenty on its own. We’re very grateful to have found Olivia and highly recommend her!
Elizabeth is amazing! She has been a consistent dog walker for my boy over last few months. She’s communicative and reliable. I am at ease while at work knowing she’s going to spoil my dog with affection and give him all the love I can’t. I highly recommend Elizabeth!
Natalie was great to work with! She send me very thorough report cards and photos of my pup, and was attentive to my instructions when we met to talk beforehand. I felt safe leaving my baby with her, which I was nervous to do at first! I recommend her as a dog walker!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Seattle on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 12,557 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 your Seattle. 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 Seattle.

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:
- 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.
