Dog Walkers in Sterling, WA

“She’s walked our girl at least three times now and it’s gone well every time. She puts in the extra effort for the animals.”

“Zane has been very helpful for our two dogs with walkings during the day while we are at work. It is especially more complex as we have a 3 month old puppy who is still in training. Zane has been reliable and communicative throughout the day while we are away.”

About: I still have few spots available in May, June and part of July, so book your pet sitting now! Sedro-Woolley, Bellingham and Mount Vernon! As a school bus driver, I work 6-10 AM, then have few hours break and go back to my afternoon drive 2-6 PM. To ensure proper care for animals, I like to book clients no further than a 30 min drive from Sedro Woolley. Please take this into consideration when looking at a sitter for your pets! The school year ends June 12th and I am available until mid-July. Afterwards, I am taking time off for my own motorcycle travels (this time to Colorado) and then spend August in Europe :) I have owned cats, large dogs (100 + lbs), and horses over the years, so I'm well-versed in handling a variety of pet needs. I am comfortable around animals and can stand my ground with them. I enjoy large breeds and, having two 150Lbs + dogs before I know how hard it is to find someone to take care of them! I am available for short and long term stays in Whatcom and Skagit counties. Dogs, cats, horses, turtles and fish - all welcomed and loved! I work as a school bus driver, so I leave the house early in the morning for few hours, then have 2-4 hrs off and then drive the kids home in the afternoon, usually 2-6 pm. If this is something that will work for you and your pet family, please reach out! I usually do a greet & meet before to make sure that everyone is comfortable! I will follow the directions you give me, be it giving medication to your pets, putting it in the crate at night or when away and any other rules that you may have.

“My dogs can be intimidating at first, but they have gotten more familiar with Kayla. After the first week, they have been much more well behaved for walks. I also have noticed that my dogs are less stressed out. She is highly reliable and available to shift the schedule slightly when needed. It's becoming a very nice routine that decreases everyone's anxiety at my house!”

“Samantha truly is a dog lover. She’s also a great communicator and very reliable. Going to work is less stressful because I know I can depend on Samantha showing up and caring for my beloved dog. I definitely recommend her!”

“Morgan is great with our Gus! He is shy around other people and we wanted him to be more comfortable around other people--so we thought a dog walker was a good idea. Morgan is gentle and patient ith him. She's only been our dog walker for a short time, but when we say "Morgan's coming today" his head snaps towards the door in anticipation of her coming. We highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve had all kinds of animals since I can remember, from cats to parrots to duck and chickens. Unfortunately my mom is allergic to dogs but I grew up with them at my grandparents house and all my friends. I work part time and I am on a break from college, but I still have lots of time to spend with your furry friends! Depending on the instructions you leave me with, I’ll give your animals attention and make sure they’re fed and waters and get lots of exercise and keep your house tidy!

“Madeline came by to get the dogs zoomiez out so they didn't spend too much alone time being mischievous. I'd recommend Madeline and hope to work with her in the future!”

“She took care of my babies when I went to Hawaii. After the first day she hurt her leg and was very upfront with me about it, even asking if I wanted to use someone else. I chose to stick with her and she let my dogs out to potty the whole week even on crutches. Honest and reliable person!”

About: Hi there! I am an elementary school teacher & during the summers, I like to spend my time outdoors, walking dogs! I have had dogs in my life since I was 6 years old. In my family, we have had dogs from little to big! I have also had plenty of experiences house sitting & caring for animals. I have experience with over night care, bathing, walking & play dates! Recently, I became a Dog Mama to a beautiful German Shepard who is the apple of my eye. In 2018, I was awarded a scholarship for my children’s book, “Ball?” (See profile picture). I wrote this book in dedication to my family dog & best friend, Astro. I continue to write more children’s books about the dogs & animals in my life. I love the cuddles, hugs, & wet kisses. ♥️ I am a primary teacher! School begins late August & ends in Mid-June. I am free during the summers and most major holidays. Please reach out in advance to schedule any visits on holidays. I will not be hosting any dogs in my home at this time. I prefer to walk dogs in the great outdoors! I also offer drop in visits. Thank you very much.

About: I have 2 years of experience working at a dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. From playful puppies to senior dogs with disabilities, I've seen it all. Growing up surrounded by a variety of dogs, from tiny Yorkies to gentle Great Danes, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs. Whether it's providing extra care for seniors or giving energetic pups their much-needed exercise, I’m passionate about keeping your furry friends happy and healthy! I’m available to care for your pets throughout the week! Whether you need a dog walk, check-in, or caring for your pet while away, I’m here to help! Let me know your pet’s needs, and I’ll make sure they’re well cared for during the times that work best for you. Please note: Starting June 1, 2025, my HOUSE SITTING rates will be updated. On Rover, the listed rate will show as $60 per night, which applies when you're away on vacation or need care over multiple days with daytime coverage. However, if you're booking longer daytime care without an overnight stay (for example, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM), the rate will be adjusted to $20 per hour for the time I’m actively caring for your pets. While the initial booking may still show as $60, I will manually adjust the rate on my end and send it to you for approval before confirming. This helps ensure you're only paying for the time you need, and your pets still receive high-quality, attentive care. Additionally, please note that for extended visits, I can provide early morning and late night drop ins, but will stay in my own home as I have my own fur babies to care for ☺️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in the familiar environment of your home, ensuring they feel secure and relaxed. I build trust through consistent, loving attention, treating each pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s following specific routines or providing a calm atmosphere, I make sure your furry friend feels safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi, I'm Zora, and I am 19-year-old student who grew up in Mount Vernon. I am currently taking a gap year in Norway, and I am looking to do some pet care when I return home for the summer. During high school I was a dedicated leadership volunteer and a teacher aide at a preschool. I have a cat and a small dog and I love taking care of pets! I can stay at your house or just drop by when needed, and I can walk smaller dogs or calmer large dogs - I'm just not strong enough to handle super big dogs if they pull a lot when walking. I am very calm and gentle and I volunteered at the NOAH animal shelter for three years with both dogs and cats. I love animals and my goal is to make them feel comfortable and safe when they are in my care. I don’t have my summer schedule solidified yet, but I will prioritize any bookings made here. Once I make a commitment, I stick with it. I do not offer boarding, but I have a small, dog-friendly car so I can take them for a hike or a visit to the park if you are comfortable. I will spend as much time as I can with your pets to ensure they feel loved, comfortable, and happy when they are in my care. I am gentle and patient and will not force affection on animals who aren’t enthusiastic about it.

About: I have taken care of different sized dogs and cats since I was 6. I take great care of pets and make sure that they are comfortable. I work remotely, so I am often available for services.

I am very detail-oriented and will do everything I can to make sure I am taking the greatest care of your pet!
