“Andrhu is such a wonderful walker for our family, our girls really see him as a friend and playmate. He is so caring and really keeps our girls happiness and safety in the forefront if each visit. We feel such comfort knowing they are safe with him and that they have a great time playing, exploring and getting the daily stimulation we can't always provide when we are working”
“Oh my goodness. What a great human. Emilia was so patient, sitting with my shy dog before going on the walks and she warmed up so well after the patience. I got videos and pictures. Emilia went above and beyond, so grateful!!”
“I had a family emergency and had to leave town ASAP, Ivy without hesitation stepped up and made sure Bear had his walks and was taken care of. I cannot thank Ivy enough for helping me out on such short notice during such a stressful time. She is truly the best!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has been caring for pets since I was a little girl. I grew up in a home that bred yellow labs, and that’s where my love for dogs truly began. Since then, I’ve had the joy of caring for many of my own fur babies over the years—including labs, cats, a husky, golden retriever and more. Today, my husband, our two teens, and I share our home with our sweet golden retriever, Milo, and our cat, Kerplunk—both very loved members of our family. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to care for their pets like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I provide reliable care, lots of affection, and daily updates so you can truly relax and enjoy your time away without worry. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies and give them all the love and attention they deserve! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home most of the week, which allows me to give your fur baby plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just extra cuddles, I’m available and present. I do step out of the home on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, but during those times my husband is home and happy to step in to make sure your pet continues to receive consistent care, supervision, and attention. Your pet will also have a friendly golden retriever to play with, providing built-in companionship and extra fun during their stay! Your pet will never feel alone or overlooked—we truly work as a team to provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment! Pet sitting with love! We treat our fur babies like family, and our crew includes golden retriever Milo (almost 3, with plenty of puppy energy!) and kitty Kerplunk. They love cuddling on our beds and couch. Our fenced backyard is a safe spot for pups to play - they'd love to meet yours!
“Sophia's availability and reliability are excellent! I can tell she genuinely cares about and enjoys working with animals. Our dogs are like family to us and we appreciate sitters like Sophia who treat them as such.”
About: I’ve spent my whole life taking care of animals. I grew up on a hobby farm with cats, horses, chickens, ducks, reptiles, small rodents, and two golden retrievers, a lab, and a Great Pyrenees. We currently just have cats, but I miss having pups to come with me on my daily walk! I'm comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and ages. If you have other pets that need care, I have lots of experience with all sorts of critters. Got any house plants that need watering while you’re gone? My 70 plants and small patio garden can attest to my green thumb 🌿 I have no formal training in obedience, but have plenty of experience teaching our family’s dogs “sit," "down" and "stay.” I’ve also taught our cat Snickers a few tricks 😻 our other cat Marzipan is missing several key brain cells, and has yet to learn more than just sit… Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. I'm responsible, hardworking, and caring, and will treat your furry friend with the love they deserve 🐾🥰 I’m currently in between jobs after graduating from grad school, so I have a lot of availability and flexibility with my schedule. Weekdays are particularly good for me. I always make sure to keep pets leashed whenever we leave the house, unless given permission from the owner to let them out in a fenced yard. I will always check that doors and gates stay shut to keep them safe.
About: I've had dogs ever since I was little and I've loved all of their personalities. I've cared for dogs, cats, rats, fish, birds and snakes. My boyfriend and I are the parents of a little short haired devil of rat terrier. He's definitely kept us on our toes training wise and he is more amusing than he realizes. I am a gentle owner who values the happiness of the pet as well as retaining their learned routines and commands. Potty breaks, walk breaks, and play breaks are important as well as practice in relaxing. Learning their character, joys, and needs are vital to me and I will do everything I can to make your loved one feel cared for and catered to. I’ve moved from Washington to California, and though I work a rather full schedule I am free most weekends. I can be flexible but providing the best quality care for a pet is important. Creating a calm but caring environment is the goal as well as providing stimulation and healthy exercise. I have experience with crate training dogs so that will be a service I can follow through with if your dog has a routine with their kennel. Their normal routine, training, and habits are something I will take care to keep to ensure a calm and familiar experience.
About: My experience consist of taking care of family, member and friends, animals, and typically pet sitting over at their homes. Other than that, I have my own cat who I take care of on a daily basis. I am a teacher looking for some work over the summer, so I will be not as available the next month, but have heavy availability in the summer. I live in a closed gated community that has a dog park, as for my apartment it is on the second floor and nearly impossible for any animal to get out.
“Our husky was playing hide and seek with Darrienne on her first visit so she had to adjust the walk route. She is great with the dogs and now they are excited to see her. The applies especially to our husky who is usually a bit aloof. She is concerned for their well being and has changed walk times and/or days due to hot weather. We will be using her services again for our next vacation in September if she is available.”
“Marisa is great with communication, reliable and punctual. Balthor can be pretty aloof with strangers initially, but he had no issue warming up to Marisa. He gets so excited when he hears her walking up the stairs to go for a walk. I really appreciate her help and kindness. I highly recommend having Marisa take care of your furbabies!”
“Krysten is amazing! She is so flexible with her schedule and super quick at responding! Plus champ loves her and warmed up right away, now he’s always excited for their weekly walks!”
About: I've cared for dogs of all sizes. I am reliable and nurturing. I will treat your pet as I would my own. I have experiance with senior and new born care. I currently have open availability week days and weekends. I like to start my mornings early and end my nights early. Happy to help whenever. I have two friendly dogs at home; Arlo a 7 year old Rough Collie and Copper a 12 year Puggle. These guys rule the home. We love to meet new furry friends and play a game of chase or keep away. I have a unfenced yard in a small coldesac neighborhood. Lots of room to safely and freely run around.
About: I’ve taken care of my own personal two dogs and one cat since I was 10 years old. Since I turned 14 I became the designated pet sitter in my neighborhood and took care of various pets. I have experience in training young pets and have a genuine love for all animals. I know how hard it can be to have a pet and a busy schedule so I would love to help others take care of their furry friends :) I am in school currently all day Monday-Wednesday but can provide overnight care or drop ins after I am out of school at 7:30 pm. The rest of the week I have open availability to care for your furry friends😊 I live in an apartment with plenty of room for your pets to run around and play as well as a large complex with grass fields for them to play in, use the restroom, and go on walks. The complex is gated so there is zero chance your pet can get out but I will also never leave them unsupervised.
About: I have over 25 years experience of hands-on pet experience, caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, mice, rabbits, hamsters, snakes, and more. My background includes working with rescues, supporting pets as they transition into safe, loving environments with patience and understanding. I also have experience with puppy training, using positive reinforcement to build good manners and confidence. In addition, I provide senior pet care, offering gentle handling, routine support, medication assistance, and extra TLC for aging pets. From energetic puppies to shy rescues, and senior companions, I tailor my care to each pet's unique needs- always treating them like family! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I am already out running errands and going on walks throughout the day and evening, so adding pet visits and dog walks is a natural part and highlight of my schedule. Because I have difficulty sleeping, I'm flexible with early mornings, late nights, and unconventional hours, which allows me to provide care when others may not be available. I genuinely enjoy spending that extra time caring for animals, whether it's a quiet overnight check-in, a midday walk, or an evening visit. I am happy to pet sit in your home, keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their regular routine. I can also provide walks and visits tailored to your pet's specific schedule, whether that means multiple walks a day, medication times, feeding routines, or extra companionship. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and relaxed- no matter the time of day. When caring for your pets in your home, I follow their normal routine so everything stays calm and familiar. I handle feeding, fresh water, medications, litter boxes or habitat cleaning, and keeping their space tidy. Dogs get walks matched to their energy- potty breaks, longer enrichment walks, or gentle senior strolls-plus playtime and cuddles. Cats and small pets get the right mix of interaction, enrichment, and quiet company (on their terms). If needed, I can also stay overnight to provide extra comfort, companionship,and consistent care. I watch for any changes in mood, behavior, appetite, and I send updates and photos so you can relax while you're away. Happy pets, clean spaces, wagging tails, and purring contentment- no worries, no stress.
About: I've grown up around dogs since I was 5 and kept them as companions for almost 30 years. I have a calm disposition as well as a natural kinship with most animals and take great care to foster their trust. I have litter trained puppies and raised several animals from youth. I am a retired veteran with free time during the the day between 10 AM and 4PM on weekdays to walk or play with your dogs! I am respectful of the animal's boundaries as well as the owner's wishes and will follow the prescribed activities and rules so that trust is maintained with both pets and humans alike.
“Alice is so wonderful and patient! My pup was needing a dog walker on short notice and she saved the day (week more like it!). The two got along very well and we will definitely be rebooking in the future! 🤩”
“Halle was great! Willing to help us out when we realized last minute that we would need a daily dog walker during our trip. She was prompt, reliable, and trustworthy. Would highly recommend.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sumner
Gretchen was a life saver! I recently had surgery and was unable to walk my little guys. Gretchen helped me out last minute with walking them. She is friendly and my dogs loved her. They don’t always want to go somewhere without me, but they trotted off without a care!
Jillian has been taking my dog on walks weekly for a couple months. It’s always an easy process with her! My dog has been better on walks ever since we’ve been working with her, he pulls less and is less reactive! I appreciate her help and I’m sure my dog does too!

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

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sumner. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
