“So glad Anne could help out with my dogs! They have a hard time being alone for too long, and having her walk them and spend time with them was wonderful. Definitely recommend her!”

About: We are a family of 3 who live in the Gig Harbor/Purdy area. Our home is located on 2.4 acres with open grass areas and a fenced area if your dog prefers to be outside. **Note: fenced area is currently undergoing some summer cleanup so dogs are not left unattended in the yard at this time. We provide a designated doggy sleeping area inside our home which includes a soft doggie bed. We will make sure your pet gets a lot of outdoor time taking walks with us. I also make homemade, healthy doggie treats to spoil them while they are vacationing with us. Your pet will be treated as if he/she was our own pet and will have plenty of playtime and attention. We love dogs and want them to feel at home in our country setting. Also we are not a large kennel, so we only have 2-4 dogs at one time which allows us to give each dog plenty of time and attention and keep things mellow for the dogs and us. We do have our own doggie Willow. She just turned 5 in July. She does well playing with dogs of all sizes. She has made many dog friends through my daycare. *Due to restrictions of our homeowners insurance, certain breeds are not accepted at this time.* I am home all day to watch and play with your pet. I rarely leave but when I sometimes have to leave for short periods, your dog will be very comfortable in our large dog crates with comfortable padded beds. Our family loves dogs and your pet will receive alot of attention and exercise. During the day they can be outside playing in the fenced area (**see above) or just hang out inside with our family, and in the evenings all dogs sleep inside the house with us. We do use crates at night for dogs that are used to that and we provide soft dog bedding in the crates. Dogs that do not prefer crates sleep on dog beds in our bedrooms so they never feel alone.

About: Hi! I grew up locally on Fox Island with my family. We’ve always had 1-2 dogs at a time from puppy to elder. I’ve always taken on the responsibility that comes with dogs from a young age to now - feeding, play time, walks, cleaning and overall care. I have been active on Rover for the last four years and currently operate my own LLC. I reside in a quiet neighborhood at a dead end street with my six year old son - who is also great with dogs! My house includes a large fully fenced backyard - plenty of room for running, ball tossing and lounging. I have a flexible remote schedule which allows for ample potty breaks, outdoor time as well as extra care and attention! I am home with dogs for a majority of the time and generally do not leave them unattended for more than an hour for school drop-off, pickup, and local errand running. I use interior cameras and local pet sitters to accommodate dog schedules and monitoring if needed as well. I host multiple client’s pets at a time and am only taking on dogs that are friendly and get a long with other dogs. I do not currently have any pets of my own and have added interior cameras to monitor dogs if I’m away. I work with two local sitters as well to accommodate additional outdoor time, play time and potty breaks.

About: I understand how nerve wracking it is to trust someone new to take care of your fur babies. My goal is to give you peace of mind and treat them like one of my own. I have taken care of my own, neighbors, and friends pets for years and am looking to expand while in school! You can expect open communication, frequent updates, and plenty of enrichment (of course some funny photos too)! I will be in school Tuesday and Thursday nights for 2 1/2 hours. Once I get the swing of things I will expand my schedule:). I care for pets with patience, attention, and lots of love. I make sure each pet’s individual routine and needs are followed, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions from their owner. I also enjoy giving pets plenty of attention and companionship while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet as if they were my own and keep owners updated so they know their pet is happy and well cared for!

About: I’ve never understood why chihuahuas loved me so much until I realized how much people don’t respect the boundaries of such small creatures. So much so, they feel the need to be aggressive and defend themselves! I know a good amount about dogs and dogs breeds, how different breeds have different needs and will strive to meet the needs of your fur-baby! I am a full-time Master’s student, but my classes are on weekends only. I have many things to read so overnights would likely be spent playing with your fur-baby before I get some reading done for my degree. To make sure you and your fur-baby feel safe with me in your home, I will make sure to talk through routines you may have with your pet(s). I know how hard it is to be away from your pet, so I will make sure to send photos and videos as requested. I want to make sure I know how to properly care for your pets, so I may have a couple extra questions to figure out how I may support you and your pet.

About: I moved from Mi to Wa in 2015 and decided in 2018 to be a dog walker. That was in King county and after moving to a house in 2021, dog boarding turned into my new side job. Last year I also enrolled in Victoria Stilwell’s Academy for positive training. So I am very aware of dog’s body language and needs. I absolutely love dogs and they are truly my life now but when I was 8 that wasn’t the case. I was bit in the face by a family friend’s dog. He was old and on medication, I startled him awake which led to him biting me. From this incident, I watched Victoria Stilwell on animal planet to get over my fear of bigger dogs and here I am today with a certification in dog training and starting my career with human’s best friend. My goal is for you and your dog to be as comfortable as possible. I only treat dogs/pets as I would want someone to treat mine (and believe me I am a high maintenance pet mom 😉) Dogs are my job. Whether it is boarding, sitting, or walking; this is what I do full time. Sometimes I do Instacart to get out a bit but will do that when my boyfriend is home. I am starting up my bath bomb business again so to have a companion working alongside with me is my ideal work day. My boyfriend works from home majority of the time, so there is always someone home. His kids do come over 50% of the week and are very kind and helpful with dogs that are boarding with me. They are 12 and 11 so they aren’t little kids. I have lick mats, Kong Gyro, and plenty of space for your dog to have fun at my house. My house is fenced in, we are updating the property all the time to make sure it is safe as possible. For larger dogs, I have a bell on a ziptie to put on your dog’s collar just so I can hear where they are at all times when I am outside with them. For smaller pups, I always go outside with them due to being in an open area so they are safe. I also have a 30’ leash that I can hook them to for extra safety. Inside, I make them as comfortable as possible. Whatever they like at home I try my best to provide at my house.

About: I have always had animals in my life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, mice, hedgehogs, fish, and guinea pigs. I have also pet sat for other people and understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently have two dogs of my own, Dochi and Madrona, who are both Chihuahua and Shih Tzu mixes. Dochi is 1 year old and Madrona is 2 years old. I care for them like they are family, and I would give that same level of love and attention to every pet I care for. I have experience with dogs of different ages and breeds and enjoy getting to know each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your dog needs a walk, a potty break, a fun day of play, or overnight care, I will make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and affection. I am available Friday through Sunday and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I am a college student, so my availability is mainly on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I am able to provide care during the weekend and can work with pet owners to find a schedule that works well for both of us. I offer dog walking, potty breaks, daycare, and overnight pet sitting at my home. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they can feel comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know how much pets mean to their families because my own dogs are a huge part of my life. I will treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely get fresh air, play, and enjoy some outdoor time. I also have a dog crate and a dog fence enclosure available, so I can provide a safe, secure space when a pet needs some quiet time or extra supervision. I have two dogs of my own, Dochi and Madrona, who are both Chihuahua and Shih Tzu mixes. They are friendly and used to being around other animals. I understand that every dog is different, though, so I will always take introductions slowly and pay attention to each pet’s comfort level. I have experience with dogs of different ages and breeds and will follow your pet’s routine, instructions, and individual needs. My goal is to provide a clean, safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet can feel comfortable while you’re away. I will always treat your pets like family and make sure they receive the patience, attention, and care they deserve.

About: I've been an animal lover and care taker for years. I am a homeschooling mama of two children and have taken care of/trained dogs specifically for the past five years so I know the discipline that is necessary to maintain their wellbeing. I am open Tuesdays-Thursdays 10am to 230pm. Mondays after 3pm. Weekends will vary about every other week but I am definitely open to those days as well. I am unable to care for pets in my own home at this time due to living in an apartment complex at this time. As a pet walker, I am very respectful in places that do not belong to me. The ONLY focus is the animals that I am caring for while completing the directions that have been given to me. I am open to additional tasks, like feeding, affection and clean up if necessary.

About: I had 4 dogs growing up and my parents always had me on a tight schedule with taking care of them. I fed them every morning at 6AM or 10AM and at 5-6PM every night. I also walked them and cleaned their messed when needed, and finally i never let their water bowl go dry. I love dogs and when I’m around them long enough they’ll love me. I will have plenty of time to take care of pets during the week. Im currently trying to make any extra cash I can right now. Which ever way a dog has to he taken care of I can do it. Each of my dogs growing up had different food and ways they needed to eat so I always took care of that

About: I have taken care of dogs since my childhood, both my family dogs and those of friends and neighbors. I am comfortable giving oral medications as my dog takes daily oral medication. I have also watched our friends and neighbors cats since I was a teenager and know how special it is when they take a liking to you. My schedule is very flexible as I am currently between jobs after moving! Even when I start working it will be 3-4 days a week. My dog is not always dog friendly so I will not be bringing her on any walks. I can follow any specific directions you have about your pet as they are all unique!

Great walker! She responded quickly to my inquiry, had great availability, showed up on time for our meet & greet and walk, and was warm and personable with me and my pup :) Great communication on walks with lots of pictures and considerate notes that werent too lengthy or too short. Perfect level of detail for my comfort that she and my dog had a great time. I was really amazed that she went so far as to wash my dog's bowl after dinner time - so thoughtful! She even followed up with a sweet and positive note after the booking. I highly recommend Lydia and we will be for sure booking with her again!

John did a great job walking our dog! He spent a few minutes upon his arrival to calm her anxiety prior to the walk. He was flexible with a new time when requested less than 24 hours prior to the appointment. He sent a report card and informed me how she was on the walk afterwards. I trust him and would definitely book with John in the future!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Wauna

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Wauna is $24 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $37 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 October 2026, there are 10,572 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Wauna. 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 your Wauna. 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 , 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 Wauna 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wauna. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 .

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.
