“Christina was super flexible with a last minute request to walk my very high energy German shepherd puppy. She took him on a great loop around the neighborhood and provided picture updates from the walk. Absolutely would book again!”

“Lucas is so kind and thoughtful to my pups. He genuinely cares about them and how they are doing; how they respond to him and their responses to social situations. I was blessed to have found him so quickly. If you are thinking of having someone walk your pets, house sit or just do drop ins- Lucas is the one you want.”

“Really attentive to every detail! Very professional and knowledgeable. The dogs felt secure and happy to have Alexa there. Thank You Alexa for doing exactly what we needed!”

“We recently started working with Gillian for weekly walks for our senior pup, and are so happy that we connected with them! Our experience so far has been wonderful. Gillian is thoughtful, responsive, and given their experience as a vet tech we are confident in their ability to take care when spending time with our dog, who is arthritic and has some medical issues. Gillian communicates well, and when we come home after work our dog is chipper and relaxed and we know he had a good day.”

“Katie was amazing! Always let me know if she was running a few min late. My dogs loved her, and she handled them well (they're strong pullers). Very positive attitude, even when the rain was just bucketing down! Would definitely recommend, and will use her again next time I need a dog walker :-)”

“Julia was great with my dog and cat, kept me informed and provided daily pictures and updates. She also was very accommodating when I requested to schedule a visit the first time she was meeting my dog, Bear in short notice. Highly recommend. Ty Julia!”
“I just loved meeting Morgan when she came for meet and greet with my two puppies. She had a great attitude, the dogs immediately gravitated to her, and I could tell they would have loving and safe care. Everything went well on their walkabout, and I look forward to booking her again. Morgan, you’re awesome!”


“Lauren is very professional and conscientious. She has a lot of experience and comes prepared with all the dog walking essentials. She is responsive and leaves great reports after each walk that let me know my pup is cared for when I’m at work. I highly recommend her services!!”

About: All my life my family has had dogs, and taking care of them has brought me such joy. I love being able to take walks and play outside with a canine companion. I’m very familiar with taking care of both the large dogs I grew up with and the smaller dogs I’ve previously taken care of. I’m home for the summer from college and planing to take care of pets while I’m back. My schedule is incredibly open while I’m in Seattle. I’m available to take walks or yard play time with your dog as needed and am able to stay with your pets through the night or drop by depending on schedules and needs. I can provide both company or playtime inside and exercise outside. Whatever the dog needs whether it's to be able to go in and out from the yard freely or walks I can be there to provide.

“Melanie is awesome! She’s amazing with our two little old ladies (shih tzu mixes, 14 and 15 years old), taking them on nice long leisurely walks and making sure they’re spoiled while we’re at work for the day. Can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I’ve been taking care of plenty of dogs in my neighborhood since I was little, being sent off to walk, feed, or check-in on dogs that varied from being just over a month or two old to some of the oldest dogs I’ve ever gotten the pleasure to meet with them still kicking at 15 years old. I’ve been a dog person all my life and any opportunity to see them is always a plus for me. I’m currently home from college for the summer so my schedule is totally free to take care of these pups whenever and wherever I am needed! I’ve taken care of my own little old dog from puppyhood to him becoming a very old man in our house, he requires quite a bit of specific needs with his food so I am more than capable of tending to whatever possible requests you would have that the pups around me will need.

“Billy does such a great job with our doggo. She’s so excited to see him and even though she’s a senior dog, it sounds like she lights up and is glad to get outside and sniff. We really appreciate his daily notes & pictures so we know how she did.”

“Brennyn demonstrated a high level of patience with Sir Wiggle Bottom during the initial stages. By the end of the week, Wiggles appeared enthusiastic about seeing Brennyn and going for walks. Brennyn provided us with an update, including a report card featuring charming photos of Wiggles enjoying himself. Thank you!”

About: Hi! I’ve been walking dogs for over 10 years just for fun, and now I’m offering my services. I’m reliable, friendly, and know all the best parks and walks in the West Seattle area. Your pup will be safe, happy, and well-exercised! I will also have more days available in February, since I’ll be going remote so stay tuned! In the meantime I do have evening check ins available through it the week just send me a message asking my availability :) To ensure your dog receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they need, let’s structure their daily routine with me :) during each visit we can have a nice walk that serve as both physical exercise and mental stimulation, helping to keep your dog happy and healthy. In addition to walks, I set aside time to relax outdoors together, especially when the weather is nice. Whether it’s lounging in the sunshine, playing in the yard, or just sitting on the porch, these calm moments help me bond and allow your dog to enjoy fresh air and natural surroundings. Caring for pets—whether in my own home or a client’s—is all about creating a safe, loving, and consistent environment. My approach varies slightly depending on the service, but my commitment to the pets’ well-being stays the same. In My Home: When pets stay with me, I treat them like part of the family. I maintain their usual feeding schedules, offer plenty of playtime, and provide a cozy, clean space for them to relax. Daily walks, outdoor time, and lots of affection are always part of the routine. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level, and I’m always happy to send updates and photos to the pet parents. In Clients’ Homes: When caring for pets in your own environment, I make sure to follow all instructions closely—from feeding and medication to preferred walk routes and routines. I aim to keep everything as familiar as possible to reduce stress and keep pets feeling secure. I also take time to tidy up after each visit, give them affection and interaction, and provide updates so clients know their pets are in good hands. Whether it’s in my home or yours, I focus on building trust with each pet, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for.

West Seattle dog parents share their Rover experiences
Aliye your calm & kind demeanor are perfect to help my rescue dog’s anxiety! I appreciate your listening carefully to my information about her & being willing to jump in and play her favorite game of tug, She is A LOT of dog to play with! But as you saw today, also sweet & loving. I feel confident you two will have a good week while I’m away.

Kimberly jumped right in to help me and my mom walk my sometimes anxious dog. She gave full reports on the potty movements while walking and the exciting times she ran into bunnies. Kimberly has been flexible on the days when we need to changes the times and one day when Millie did not want to walk. Photos and walk routes were provided. I will use Kimberly again!

We adopted our dog two weeks ago and Michaela has been helping with midday walks a few days a week. So grateful for her patience and care. Our pup is still adjusting, but she handled every visit and walk with calm and kindness. She is responsible and respectful of our home.
