About: I have cared for and owned all different kinds of animals. I have been in the horse riding industry since I was 8 years old so I am not skiddish towards other animals. I truly have a passion for animals and I am very able and willing to do what it takes to take care of your beloved pets!! I am currently a full time student, however I am a commuter so I have the ability to travel freely in between classes and outside of classes. I am on summer break from May-September and have a virtually free schedule for whatever you may need! I am more than happy to confine to whatever you may need me to do in order to give your pet the best care possible. I have slept over, done drop ins, walks, etc. with other dog and cat sitting jobs and I am very comfortable.

About: The number one thing in life that brings me joy is caring for animals. I currently work as a nurse and I’m working on completing my masters. I’ve cared for animals of all shapes and sizes, and used to rescue senior dogs. I am happy to care for either cats or dogs (or both!). I currently have 2 Newfies that help keep me on my toes, and I’ve had many cats throughout my life (most recently a Maine Coon that passed at age 20).I’m happy to assist with walks, play time, boarding, etc., please reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting your furry friends! I currently work M-Th , but I am available F-Sun for any pet sitting needs! Please reach out, and I would be happy to assist! Dogs are like toddlers, so you always have to be watching (especially the puppies), so I am very attentive to their needs and wants. I love taking them outside and playing or going for walks. I match your pets energy level, so if they can go for a long walk, we go for long walks and vice versa with shorter walks for older dogs.

About: I have grown up with dogs and have helped take care of them as long as I can remember from the time they are puppies to adults! I also have pet-sat for neighbors and other family members growing up. I am a physician assistant who is on the job hunt currently but hoping to have some pet sitting opportunities in the meantime as it is something I enjoy. I have a fairly flexible schedule currently and would love to fit in some time spent watching or entertaining some doggies! I can easily build my schedule around stopping in to check on dogs and/or house sit. I will follow all instructions given by client’s and follow their requests for their pets. I will look out for the pet’s wellbeing and make sure they are well taken care of.

About: As a Humane Society volunteer for the past 4 years, I have experience with all dogs big and small, wild and calm. There's no doggo that I can't handle. I also have a 12 year old Staffy of my own. I'm primarily available on weekends when I'm not volunteering. But I'm happy to make time during the week if needed. My goal is to get your animals outdoors whenever you're too busy or during the Winter when the weather isn't so forgiving. I make sure to pack treats, dogs water bottles and waste bags during walks. For travel, my car is setup with a comfy and secure dog carrier.

About: For 10 years, one family trusted me with their kids and their dogs, and I’d love to earn that same trust from you. I cared for their dogs from puppyhood through adulthood. That meant meals, walks, potty training, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Beyond that family, I’ve cared for a wide variety of dogs over the years, which taught me that every dog has their own personality and needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of every age, size, and energy level, from rambunctious puppies to laid-back seniors and nervous pups who need a gentle, patient approach. My schedule is fully open, so I can work around your plans, keep your dog’s routine just the way they like it, and send photo updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well cared for.

About: Hi!😊 I’m a Rochester Hills pet caregiver with 12 years of hands-on experience (off & on Rover combined!) caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities and routines. Prior to finishing my degree at Oakland University and entering the corporate world, I was a full time nanny/pet sitter so caregiving is truly in my DNA and something I truly love and am passionate about! I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you genuinely trust, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, attentive and big on communication, so you can expect regular updates, photos and peace of mind while you’re away. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic walks and playtime to slower-paced senior care, feeding routines, medications and lots of companionship. I also understand that every pet is different. Some want constant attention and cuddles, while others need a little time and space to warm up. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and tailor their care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I offer dog walking, drop-ins and at your house sitting for cats & dogs, as well as 1:1 house sitting in my home for one small-medium dog (40lbs & under) with me doing both pickup and drop off. Please feel free to reach out with any additional questions- I look forward to connecting with you!🙂 My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day for walks, drop-ins and overnight stays. I can tailor my availability around your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime and companionship. My goal is to make their day feel as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow the routines and instructions you provide as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, potty breaks and any household guidelines. I’m careful with doors, leashes and surroundings, and I pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite or energy. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet and home are being well cared for.

“Lauren has been fantastic! We hired her at the beginning of this year for a few days a week to walk our Weimaraner. He’s a big puppy with a lot of energy and she has been amazing with him. She communicates with us on how his visits and walks go. She has been incredibly flexible with a few times we have even had to change our schedule around. We are so thankful for her and would highly recommend her to anyone needing her services.”

About: I've taken care of the family cat since I was little. Near the end of her life, I learned to give her subcutaneous fluids. When Booboo passed away, we got another cat and a dog. I helped train Ruby when she was a puppy. I can feed, walk, bathe, give medication, and train dogs and cats. I also have experience being an assistant at a veterinary clinic and taking care of patients and clinic animals. I have also been at school for becoming a vet tech for one semester. I work part-time at Meijer now! It's an overnight stocking job and I do not work the same days/times every week. Usually shifts start at 11 pm and end at 3-6 am. I sometimes do not have a car during the day, so I am not consistently available anymore for daytime help. I do not work Mondays at Meijer. Otherwise, I'm free from 8 am to midnight. Previous customers take priority for requests, as I understand many pet parents like to stick with the same sitter. I have a tie off in my yard and can take your dogs to the Orion Oaks dog park. I have a crate in my car for transportation. Ruby may be able to play with your dog if they get along with each other.

About: I am a huge dog lover, with a lot of love and care to give. My family has always kept a dog in the home since I was age 7, and always loved the loyalty, companionship, playfulness and protection a dog provides. A dog is truly a great pet and a great friend to have. I'd treat any dog in my care like my own. I currently work from home full time, and I would love to soak up some of my free time by caring for pups! I will gladly send you photo and video updates of your pup's stay. I understand how important it is to find a genuine caregiver for your pet. Dogs truly bring me joy and I am happy to offer a hand/home. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with lots of open area for daily routine walks. I am very active, so your fur baby is sure to have their exercise. I currently do not have any pets of my own, so no need to worry about your pup getting used to any other furry or not so furry people :).

About: We love dogs and promise to take care of yours as if he or she was part of our family. We are happy to follow any specific instructions you may have and will do our best to provide a happy, healthy environment for your furry family member while you’re away. We are both recently retired and don’t currently have any pets so we can give yours all the attention he or she needs. We are happy to send photos and/or videos while you’re away if you like! We will make sure your dog(s) get lots of exercise, love and attention! We are retired and are available everyday - weekdays, weekends, holidays - you name it! We are completely flexible and able to work with your schedule. We can even pick up and/or drop off your fur baby if it’s more convenient for you. Just ask us - we are more than happy to help! And while our profile says that we only take ONE dog at a time, we are happy to take two or three AS LONG AS THEY ARE FROM THE SAME FAMILY. We strongly believe in making your dog’s (or dogs’) experience as close to what you provide at home. That’s why we don’t have any other animals of our own and we won’t care for multiple dogs from outside your own family. It’s safer for your dog(s) and there is much less anxiety for them when they aren’t faced with unknown dogs. We endeavor to make your dog(s) feel as comfortable and calm as possible during their stay with us. Safety first! Our entire home has been recently remodeled and is very dog friendly. We keep chemicals out of sight and behind closed doors. Our yard is fenced in and there is a lot of space to run and play. Joe is “dog-walker extraordinaire” and loves to take long or short walks any time of day.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Washington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Washington is $27 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,901 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Washington. 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 Washington. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Washington after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 Washington. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 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 Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
