About: Hi! My name is Kourtney , I’m trying something new! I have yrs of experience with working with the elderly and kids… but I would really love to just take that caring side and just love on animals. I have always had cats ( be nice you dog loving people) U till 9 yrs ago … I rescued a Beautiful Pitty from Washougal’s Animal Shelter. Her name was Dixie.. I quickly learned a whole new meaning of love and loyalty. Hands down the best dog ever!! Last yr at the age of 14” roughly) I had to say goodbye to my sweet girl . She left behind a 2 yr old Brother “Ammo” a Husky/malamute. And 2 months ago we welcomed a Pitty Puppy to the fam . I have a large fenced back yard 6ft high . Ma covered deck and a back room with couch , tv and radio for puppy friends… I currently am a full time Nanny , so will be starting out part time .. Fri-Sun .. if it all works out, I will be transitioning to pet care full time . Your fur baby will have 2 friends, off the bat. Safe to go outside and in as little or as often as they want . Would just need to know if there is food aggression, as I would separate at feeding time :)
About: I've taken care of dogs of all types since I was 18. I've provided walking and dog sitting services to families in my home town as well as professors and locals in Maine while I was going to college. I have experience with puppies, older dogs with special accommodations, and shy or unfriendly dogs. I'm going back to school this fall to pursue a masters degree online and have a very flexible schedule outside of my evening classes. On the weekends, I'm absolutely willing to travel to watch pets and have a lot of time to dedicate to hanging out and going on adventures! I am happy to accommodate the specific needs of the dogs I'm caring for. I'm happy to match their energy and make sure they feel at home when they are under my care.
“Susana took wonderful care of our kitties while we were away. She took daily photos and gave regular updates on how they were doing, and was kind, communicative, and very professional the whole time. We are glad we found her and are excited to be able to work with her again!!”

About: I grew up with animals in my home, and have rarely had time without a dog in the home; usually alongside a menagerie of other animals. I have also fostered a number of dogs through Best Friends Animal Society over the past five or so years. I'm not a certified trainer, but I have trained several of my own pets fairly well and am adept at reading dogs body language. I've had dogs ranging from lap dogs to house cows in size and overly friendly to animal aggressive in temperament. I'm confident in my ability to take good care of your pets! I work in the entertainment industry so my schedule is extremely flexible. In the winter and spring I am far more open than the summer and fall, but I still have a great deal of availability throughout the year. Most days out of the week my schedule is wide open! I will always be respectful of any rules or guidelines put in place for any home I am invited into. If you need a pet sitter to stay with your furry, feathered, or scaly friends while you're away, you can rest assured I will care for your animals as well as your home when I am there. If you would prefer to have me simply stop in during the day to make sure they're taken care of, I will ensure that your home is locked tightly before I leave.
About: I have over 30 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. Friends, family, and others have trusted me to provide loving, dependable care for their pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, medications, special routines, and senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for a beloved pet, so I treat every animal in my care with the same kindness, attention, and affection I give my own. I currently have open availability, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets and give them the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and overnight care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and of course plenty of cuddles and attention. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, potty routines, walks, and any special needs. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and affection. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their normal routine and environment so they feel secure while their family is away.
About: Hi! My name is Brooklynn and I have been pet sitting for seven years now. As an animal owner myself, I understand the fear that can arise when leaving your pets alone to go on vacation. My number one priority is to treat your pets with as much love and care as my own. I have experience with dogs big and small, as well as experience using doggy diapers and giving oral medications. I have experience watching up to six dogs at a time! I’m currently a nursing student, so with each day looking a bit different for me, it’s a bit difficult to work. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my schedule however, thanks to no need for a fixed schedule! Communication is a must for me. I want you to know your pets are safe and I want to know I’m caring for your home correctly!
“Gema took great care of our little man (17 yr old dachshund/schnauzer rescue). She was sweet, patient, and super communicative while we were out of town. Will definitely welcome Gema back any time!”

About: Whether you're away for a day or an extended trip, I provide personalized care, fun playtime, and plenty of belly rubs for your furry family member. With a calm presence, flexible availability, and a true love for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home. Walks, cuddles, feeding, meds; I’ve got it covered! It’s just me and my two teenagers in the house - they are 17 and 19 and both have their own cars so I rarely see them! They’ve grown up around having a dog, and continually pressure me to have another one 😵💫 We had a bully breed mix, Celine Dion who sadly passed from old age in 2019. She had diabetes towards the end of her life, so I’m familiar with giving medication/shots if necessary. Since then we’ve regularly looked after our friends’ dogs until we fostered Simba in 2024 - we had him for 10 months until he was adopted. Because of having family in England, I want to be able to travel there frequently so am not ready to have a permanent dog again yet, but I LOVE having dogs come and stay with me when my calendar allows. I work from home so have flexibility in my routine and am always available for my visitors’ needs. I like to take a morning walk, and an evening one too. I’m not away from home often. I have a fully fenced yard and my neighborhood has beautiful walking trails, that I use whether I am walking a dog, or just walking alone. I’ve fostered rescue dogs and have experience of high anxiety dogs. I’m 6 feet tall and strong, and my last foster was great with people but not so much with other dogs we met on our walks, so I’m used to avoiding them, if necessary! I am happy to send photos to you whilst your dog is in my care, and will communicate with you as frequently as you would like.
About: For as long as I can remember, I've lived in a household with pets! As a kid, my family had a little shih tzu and then later on we had a huge pit bull mix (we also almost always had at least 3 cats running around, adding to the craziness). I've always loved getting to spend time with animals because of their vastly different personalities, from the lazy pug I currently have to the crazy cats I take care of for friends! I'd love to get the opportunity to spend time with your pet too, whether it's taking them on long walks or just playing with them around the house! I'm currently a full-time employee with lots of flexibility in my hours. I'm available most days from noon until 10pm! Some days may have slight differences in hours based on if I have any work meetings, but I'm always transparent with my availability! I live in a gated apartment complex currently with a large dog park. Because of my current home, I only offer drop-in visits and walks. Because of this, I'd be visiting your home. I believe in treating everyone's home with absolute respect so I'll make sure to follow all rules you set for your space as well as ensure your pets are safe and happy at the end of my visits!
“Amazing pet sitter! Very attentive to details and communicating! She made sure that Bravo was well fed and taken care of! Would highly recommend to anyone needing their pets taken care of”

About: I am an experienced pet owner, with a lifelong love of all animals: especially dogs. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur-babies, and I have a lot of experience with a wide range of ages, needs and puppy personalities. I am an avid runner and naturist and love taking dogs on the myriad trails and walks surrounding our area. Your dog will get plenty of exercise and play time if they want it, or could be a total lounge and snuggle-bug in the calm indoors. I'm happy to tailor my care to your dog's needs and routine. I am happy to keep you updated on how your pet's stay is going, ready to send those glamor shots your way. I'm also adept at getting even the most stubborn of pups to take their medications without fuss. We can't wait to meet you and your four-legged bestie! I work from home and my wife has weekends, holidays and Summers off. Between us, we have a lot of time, energy and snuggles to devote to your pup. Our dogs thrive on a set routine for feeding, potty breaks and outdoor adventures, so your friend will be in good company. We have two lovable hounds that enjoy making new friends and we have a secure, fenced yard. My schedule allows for frequent check-ins or stays at your place, should you prefer house-sitting.
About: Hi there! **Now accepting new CAT & DOG clients** Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something that brings me so much joy. I’m a big lover of both dogs and cats, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and little quirks. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and I want you to feel confident knowing they’ll be loved, cared for, and treated like one of my own. I'm a freelance photographer with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to your pet's care. Whether it's walks, playtime, feedings, or simply keeping them company, I'm happy to work around their routine and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Creating a safe and comfortable environment for every pet is my top priority. I know every cat and dog has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, so I take the time to earn their trust and make sure they feel at ease. I'll always follow your care instructions closely, respect your home, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away!
About: After becoming an elementary school teacher 15 years ago, I began dog sitting for coworkers and some of my parents friends. Then, 10 years ago, I adopted my own dog, Moxie. My 14 year old girl would love to have some friends over to play, she still has a lot of energy for a senior dog! She is fixed, about 45 lbs, fully vaccinated, and gets along with most dogs, especially smaller dogs, we would just need to have them meet first. We have a cozy home with a fully fenced yard in SE Vancouver. I have experience with senior dogs, dogs with vision, hearing, and mobility challenges, dogs that take oral medication, and administering diabetes medication syringes. I currently have a pretty flexible schedule! Please reach out and let me know what daily or weekly routine works best for you and your pet. I have a fully fenced yard, a 14 year old female schnauzer mix that loves to play, prefer crate trained dogs for when I’m away during the day, but dogs are free to roam my house when I’m home and can sleep in my room at night.
“Courtney did a fantastic job taking care of our cat! She went above and beyond what is expected from a sitter, and we felt confident that our baby was in good hands. Thank you Courtney!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Washougal
Angela did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs during drop-in visits for feedings. Our two senior dogs are on a plethora of medications, and their meal and medication routine is somewhat complicated. Angela carefully followed our instructions, made sure they received all of their medications, and ensured they ate their meals. She had originally been scheduled for overnights, but I ended up having to cancel my trip because I became very sick. Angela was incredibly flexible with the change in plans and came for drop-in visits instead to help out with the dogs. She communicated with me upon each arrival and made sure all of our dogs’ needs were met. She even went above and beyond by watering our flowers and cleaning up the dog run while I was unable to do it myself. I really appreciated her reliability, flexibility, and care for our dogs. I would absolutely have Angela care for them again!

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Washougal choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter 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.

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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
