“Briaunna is a pro! She has been walking our dog for a couple months now and he is always happy to see her! What I really appreciate is the fact she understands dog behaviors and when to give praise and when to wait. Our puppy gets a little jumpy at first meeting and we have been working on rewarding not jumping. She immediately ignores and then praised him when he stopped. She’s is also great at communicating. We appreciate her care and knowledge while taking care of him on his walks. I highly highly recommend!”
About: Hello! If you choose me to take care of your furry best friend consider them in the best hands! I have grown up with dogs all my life! Different breeds as well from the biggest you can think of to the smallest ankle biter out there. I like to treat all animals as if they were my own. Being a stay at home mom makes that even easier for me. Your pet will have 24/7 attention and have fun walks throughout the day! Being a stay at home mom my schedule is pretty open!

After play time we love to cuddle up on the couch and rest their little paws All pets will be leashes prior to going on walks in addition my son is also kept away from the dogs especially while they’re eating since I have a dog of my own we have made sure to make sure he knows to be gentle with them and give them space
About: Hi there! 👋 My name is Kate. I’m a mom of 2, and I have always had a strong love for animals. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats, some of whom are rescues. Growing up, I had a medically fragile dog that I administered insulin to and because of this, animals with disabilities have a special place in my heart. I have experience caring for multiple pets — up to 10 cats at one time. I have cared for pets of all sorts of temperaments and sizes and feel confident that I can provide exceptional care for your pet. It’s extremely important to me that you feel you can not only trust me but know that I will follow your instructions/routine perfectly and treat your pet like they are my own. I am a stay-at-home mom to my 3-year-old. Our days consist of being at home and playing in our backyard when we’re not running the occasional errand. I have open availability morning, afternoon and evening Monday—Sunday. My pets are family, and they are treated just that way. They all love to play, whether it’s fetch in the backyard, puzzle boards stuffed with treats or running after toy mice. In the evenings, they love to cuddle on the couch together. Each of my pets have different needs. Once I understood their personalities and behaviors, I tailored my everyday routine.

About: I have been a professional dog groomer for over 12 years, working with all breeds and ages of dogs. I have had pet dogs and cats of my own for as long as I can remember. Dogs are my passion and I'd love to continue working with them for as long as I can. I also enjoy walking and hiking, and taking four legged friends with me would make it even better.

I am currently living in an apartment that has two dog parks and a mile long trail on site. One of my dogs is extremely friendly and playful, while the other is older and prefers to nap all day.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Spanaway
Brianna does such a wonderful job communicating with me about my dog and all of the new experiences or challenges he encounters. I really appreciate how she keeps me updated—not only if there’s something I may want to work on with my dog, but even about the little things, like meeting another friendly dog on a walk or wind chimes that startled him since he had never seen before. Walking him through those new sounds or experiences to help him be confident and calm while looking to her for guidance. Her communication gives me peace of mind and helps me better understand how my dog is doing and what we can continue working on.
Sam is Awesome. Rosie and Pepper Jack are still new to Rover but right when they saw her at the front door they knew what time it was. She’s very good and patient with them. I missed a scheduled walk day and she went above and beyond to check on us. Will continue to go with Sam.
Serene was very flexible to last minute booking changes. My husband was supposed to set everything up for her to make her visit easy, but on the rush out, he did not. She was very helpful and looked back at months old notes and old bookings to figure out how to best help out my pup. And she did everything perfectly !! I 110% book with Serene first anytime we need her!
Alyssa was wonderful with our dog! Our dog can be pretty wary of strangers, but Alyssa’s calm demeanor, patience, and understanding really helped her feel comfortable quickly. She didn’t seem fazed at all by our dog’s hesitation and gave her the time and space she needed to warm up. We will absolutely book with Alyssa again!

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 Spanaway. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
