About: Meow! I'm Raelene, cat mom and pet guardian fluent in multiple dialects of cat, including orange, tabby, void, Maine Coon, Siamese, tuxedo, and cow. My current clowder has seven members, ranging from a spunky new orange kitten to my old lady who just turned 18. They keep me entertained, amused, and grounded while I work toward my master’s in psychology. My pet-sitting skill set is vast and includes: * Administering medications * Senior cat and kitten care * Dog walks and care * Preparing and serving specialized diets * Maintaining clean, fresh litter boxes * Providing engaging play and enrichment to prevent boredom * Conducting stimulating, fluent conversations in your cat's native language Additional Qualifications: Experienced negotiator specializing in pets who have already been fed but remain firmly convinced they have not My availability is open Sunday through Saturday, including overnight pet sitting stays (a perk of portable, online schoolwork). As our fur children have their own personalities, routines, quirks, and needs, each visit/stay can be customized around what makes your pet happiest and most comfortable. Whether that means playtime, medication schedules, or providing an audience while they scream inexplicably from the bathtub, I'm happy to accommodate. I'm based in Yakima and am also willing to travel, with adjusted rates based on distance. Currently working towards a masters degree. My courses are online so my availability to care for your pet is flexible. My availability is open Sunday through Saturday, including overnight pet sitting stays (a perk of portable, online schoolwork). I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routines. Each pet receives an individualized Pet Care Plan covering feeding, medications, routines, behaviors, preferences, and any special needs. I follow their plan closely while providing plenty of play, enrichment, affection (or respectful admiration from across the room) according to their preferences.
About: A WFH animal lover with a flexible schedule. With only 1 class at YVC and working from home I can make time in my life to make yours easier! I've had pets my entire life of all types including dogs, cats (including my late senior boy), and other small animals! I currently have a little black cat with plans to adopt more! I've had lots of experience with senior cats AND dogs and special needs babies. I regularly walk and groom dogs at the shelter I volunteer at when I'm not booked up and plan to start vet tech school next fall to continue my pursuit of working with animals. I work from home as a freelance editor so I can work on my laptop anywhere. I have the ability to work around your busy schedule with ease. During the fall quarter I will be taking a single morning class so I will continue to be available at almost any time you need! I will always heed to the knowledge and advice you have about your own pets needs and combine it with my own expereince as a lifetime pet owner and volunteer. Be it an energetic lovebug that needs extra attention or a senior pet that has special needs, I am capable and happy to care for your pet as if they were my own.
“Carol had watched my three dogs and did such an amazing job, we were like "oh no, we're going to come home and our dogs will be bored out of their MINDS after Carol was with them" so we hired her to walk our dogs. When they saw she was visiting again, they were out of their minds with happiness. :) Super reliable, so easy to work with, she sent pics, very communicative and all-around awesome! Thanks Carol!”
About: I’ve grown up around all types of dogs! Big, small, happy and angry ones! I currently have 3 XL dogs who are my babies :-) I know all pups can be different and I plan to get to know each and every one of them! I just moved into the Yakima area and I’m available pretty much 24/7! I’m currently 21 weeks pregnant but I’m still very active for walks and play time with pups :-) I currently have 3 large dogs and have plenty experience with leash pulling/controlling large strong pups. I know an escape artist when I see one (I have a husky)!
About: Hi there! I am a dog lover of all kinds! I have two dogs of my own, one weiner/corgi mix a blue heeler/Idaho shag and a cat who I love dearly, they are my world. They also love any dog that they meet and are super playful! Ive had experience caring for animals for a very long time, my priority is to make sure all dogs are loved and happy. I decided to get on this for a chance to meet new pups and gain more experience in caring for different breeds and just to spread love and care for all your furry family members. I know how important it is to find somebody you really trust to take care of them throughout the day, overnight or even just for a quick visit so just know your babies will be in good hands with me :) I will have plenty of time to play with the dogs. Also once the weather is cooler I will be able to take your dog on walks or runs with me :) Communication between pet parents and myself are very important. When taking your dogs on a walk, doing drop in visits, or staying overnight in your home, I will always respond to any texts or calls during that time. I send pictures and videos while I’m with your pets at your request.
About: Hello! My name is Taylor and I have always been a huge animal lover. Growing up we always had many pets, and I would often spend my weekends and holidays sitting for friends and family. I have a lot of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and life stages, and especially with blind and deaf dogs. I have a 6 year old Golden of my own who adores other dogs and cats, and tennis balls of course. I work from home and recognize that others may not have this option, so I wanted to open up my home to provide a caring space for other pet owners when needed. I have a fenced in back yard but take my girl out often throughout the day to one of the many parks that are very closeby. Working remotely means I am also flexible in my hours and am able to offer walks and drop ins as needed, always giving each pet as much attention as I can. I treat every animal as I would my own and understand how difficult it can be to be away from them. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have. Looking forward to meeting you and your four-legged friend soon! Weekends work best, but can entertain on weekdays. Can have up to two more pets to continue the same exercise/play schedule I have for my own pet. I have a laid back dog. I will be around in the mornings and evenings to feed, play and clean up after. With permission, I would love to take your fur baby on walks, hikes, or to the dog park to get some energy out and for mental stimulation.
About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs since I was 11. My neighbors and family friends trust me to feed, walk and bathe their dogs. I’ve even trained my own dogs. Hello! I’m home for the summer before I go off the Hair design, School and I’m so excited to meet new fluffy faces!! I’ve always been a dog person, they have my full attention. I have two shih tzu dogs that currently live with my mom and I know how much they value quality time and fun, which has in a way trained me to be the best companion for them.
About: I have always been around dogs growing up. I had a childhood chihuahua who I raised and was able to gather valuable memories and experience in senior dog care. When I was younger I took care of a litter of puppies for my neighbor while he worked and taught basic commands. I am well-rounded with small dogs from chihuahuas to larger breeds like german shepherds and malamutes. I have experience in medicine distribution for dogs on different medications and other special needs care. I am currently enrolled in university online and currently unemployed so I am able to give your pets plenty of love and care. I do have my own pet at home but I have someone available to take care of her while I take care of your lovely pets! I do not currently offer boarding in my own home. I will care for your pets in your home with intricate care and attention by following any feeding schedules, routines, and other special needs per-dog basis.

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

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
