“Best sitter EVER!!! We trust Angela 100000% with our babies. She leaves the most thoughtful post walk notes, takes photos of our animals, really takes the best care of them, and goes above and beyond. 100/10 will always always come to Angela!!”
“Cheryl is terrific. She knows and understands dogs and our German Shepherd Husky immediately liked her. She’s taken him on two walks so far, both of which went well. Cheryl is dependable, responsive, friendly and conscientious. I look forward to having her walk our dog again.”
About: I have loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember, and I'm lucky to say that my home has never been pet-free! From dogs to hedgehogs to the cats I care for today, my lifelong experience with pets has been filled with joy and companionship. My love for animals has also given me experience caring for the pets of friends and family, in addition to my own. I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines, and I strive to provide care that is tailored to each individual animal. My goal is to help pets feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. As a dedicated college student who works part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for pets throughout the week. I prioritize communication and careful planning of my responsibilities to ensure that the pets I care for receive the attention and companionship they need. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I take the time to learn and closely follow each pet's unique routine, preferences, and any special care instructions to keep them safe and happy while their owners are away. Having five indoor cats of my own, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for and protecting beloved pets, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every animal in my care. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with the same level of care, patience, and attention. My goal is not only to provide pets with reliable care, but also to provide owners with peace of mind.
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.
“Very pleasant and accommodating. I had her over to my parents home where my dog was staying to walk my pup on relatively short notice. My parents dogs as well as mine all obviously took a shine to her, she sent me photos of the dogs, and was over every day she said she would be and walked for at least 30 min. Definitely someone I would recommend!”
“Was able to enjoy a few days out of town knowing I could depend on Allison to take care of my pups with dog walks and drop ins. She's prompt, keeps me updated, takes great pics, and is 100% dependable! My pups love her and we're lucky to have her help 💜”
“Lindsay is fantastic! Our skittish sheltie warmed up to her because of her kindness and patience and his walks with her were the highlight of his day. We will definitely use Lindsay again. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats since childhood and have been involved in their daily care for many years, including feeding and basic routines. I’ve also helped care for and watch family and family friends’ dogs, giving me experience with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I enjoy spending time with dogs, whether that means walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I understand the importance of structure, attention, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and will treat every dog as if they were my own. Pet care fits very flexibly into my weekly routine. I have mostly open availability and can adjust my schedule to prioritize pet care bookings, including house-sitting, drop-ins, and walks. I occasionally pick up shifts at a medical endoscopy center and may take on occasional part-time work, but my schedule is flexible and I am able to plan around pet care commitments in advance. I provide care in clients’ homes by following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions provided. I make sure pets are safe, calm, and well cared for, and I pay close attention to their behaviors and needs. I also respect the client’s home by keeping things clean, organized, and secure, and I will always communicate if anything seems off or requires attention.
About: I grew up with cats and have raised two pups since they were around 10 weeks old. I’ve taken them to multiple levels of training classes and groom them at home. I treat my animals like they’re my children and would be happy to spread my love along to your furry friends! I currently take care of two 4-year-old dogs. I work from home so I care for them around the clock each day, which includes feeding, playing, and walking them. I ensure my pets receive adequate amount of food, playtime, attention and love each day. One of my pets was diagnosed with anxiety as a puppy, which has been a huge learning experience during walks and interactions with other dogs and people. I am a very patient person and would be happy to take care of pets regardless of their needs or extreme personalities and behaviors. :)
“Lindsey is terrific. Was just a first visit, but it's clear that she is punctual, flexible, and a very comfortable handler. She was totally fine with my large (95 lb) and energetic dog. She trained her own dogs through Happy Tails and knows the commands if that helps. I definitely recommend Lindsey.”
About: I've taken care of dogs ranging from 5lbs to 150lbs. I went through puppy training school with my Great Dane and picked up many tricks along the way. Currently I am a stay at home mom looking for some pet lovin'. I have time while my kiddo is in school and through the summer time to walk and play with your fur-babies. I can care for your pet at your home under the circumstances that you draw up. I am a quick learner with integrity and want to care for your pet the same way I would care for my own.
“I can't recommend Ashley enough as a dog walker! She has been walking my golden retriever, Molly, regularly for a couple of months now, and I couldn't be happier with her services. Ashley is incredibly reliable and always shows up on time, which gives me peace of mind during my busy days. Not only is she friendly and approachable, but her genuine love for dogs truly shines through in her interactions with Molly. It’s clear that she goes above and beyond to make sure Molly is happy and well-cared for during their walks. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy and has a real passion for dogs, look no further than Ashley! She’s fantastic, and I’m so grateful to have her!”
About: Hi, I’m Hope! I’ve always felt at home with animals, especially dogs. I believe every dog has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to understand what makes them feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll meet them where they are with patience, kindness, and genuine care. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know your furry family member is happy and in good hands. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding routines, administering basic medications if needed, and giving plenty of affection and companionship. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where your dog feels secure while you’re away. I know trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’d love the opportunity to care for your best friend and become someone you can rely on whenever you need a helping hand.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my Love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for all animals. My experience in Pet Care is from caring for my family and friends pets and having my own pets as well. I also volunteer now at an Animal Rescue. I have a 15yr old Pup so I have experience in giving medications and gentle Love and Care. I also have a 3yr old, so I know the energy level and play-time they need. I am currently working part-time at my discretion, so I can work any pet care in to my schedule easily. I'm very flexible to work around your needs. When I care for your precious Pets in your home, I would stick to there daily routine, give them exercise, and follow all special requirements needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Washington on Rover is $26.64 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Washington. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Washington.

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:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
