About: Animals have always been at the center of our lives. Together, we share our home with two senior dogs, both 12 years old, and caring for them has given us firsthand experience through every stage of a pet’s life. From the boundless energy of puppies to the special attention senior pets need, we understand how routines, patience, and care make all the difference. Over the years, we became the go-to pet sitters for friends and family, trusted to look after pets of all kinds. From kittens to cats, small dogs to large breeds with big personalities. More recently, we’ve expanded that circle, building a business rooted in reliability, trust, and a genuine love for animals. What sets us apart is the thoughtful, consistent care we bring as a team. We take time to understand your pet’s unique needs and personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily lives, and with both of us involved, we’re able to offer flexible coverage. Together, we can reliably accommodate walks, drop-ins, or extended visits without rushing or cutting corners. Our goal is to make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent, whether that means a quick midday check-in, evening walks, or longer stretches of care. By working as a team, we’re able to give your pet more attention and you more peace of mind. When we’re in your home, our priority is creating a calm, safe environment for your pet. We follow your instructions closely, from feeding routines to favorite walking routes, because pets thrive on familiarity. You can expect reliable updates and communication from us so you always know how your pet is doing. Above all, we treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect we would want for our own.
About: I have taken care of dogs for many years, from put bulls to chihuahuas, I have yet to meet a dog I didn’t love! I have grown up with dogs my whole life and I have learned how to care for and bond with dogs of all kinds. I would love to care for your furry friends! I am a recent college graduate and I am looking for a part time job while I wait for my graduate program to begin in the fall. My schedule is very flexible and I love taking long walks! I am a pet parent myself, so I am always very careful and cautious with my surroundings. I am aware of the many toxic substances to cats and dogs, I have learned their body language, and I am always interested in learning more about the individual pet to better care for them!
“Heyley has been great. She very clearly loves dogs and has experience working with them - our dog Teddy warmed up to her right away. Teddy comes home from his walks tired and happy and we're grateful! Highly recommend - thanks Hayley!”

“Emma took great care of our dog on her drop in visit/walk! Our dog Hoku loves her and was so happy to see her. I trust Emma with my pets and it puts my mind at ease knowing they will be in great hands when we are away from home! She is so dependable, I will definitely continue to rebook her!”

“Lena did a great job walking my sweet but reactive Cowpie. She gets so sad when I'm away and Lena was able to get her out the door and make it happen.”


About: I grew up in the country with many dogs in the family. My parents bred and showed champion Afghan Hounds as well as boarded other breeds of dogs. I have raised and cared for many amazing dogs, cats, horses, goats, rabbits, salamanders and a gold fish named Charlie. My absolute love for all animals and my special bond with my 18 year old rescue, Fez, lead me to managing a local doggy daycare and boarding facility. I learned so much about all kinds of breeds and mixes, puppies and seniors, managing medications, nutrition, play time, and their beautiful personalities. What a wonderful experience that was! My deep love for dogs, hiking, the outdoors and the Oregon weather makes dog walking a true pleasure for me. I can take dogs to Forest Park or just around the neighborhood sidewalks and trails. I have a very flexible schedule and I am happy to take walks, pop in for a visit or look after in your home while you are away. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your best friend and taking great care of them. I have a very flexible schedule and can work around your routine. I love getting out there in the mornings but I am also happily available for walks in the afternoons and evenings until 7:00pm. Safety is the number one priority period. I have a very calming demeanor and can sense what my pet partner is feeling in their environment. My eyes and ears will be focused on your pet and our safety at all times inside or outside, staying 5 steps ahead with their care.

“Elizabeth took her time introducing herself to my dog who was a little nervous at first but she won her over in minutes and off they happily went on their walk. My pup came back happy and sufficiently tuckered out. :) Elizabeth gave lots of details about how the walk went and did great with dog handling. I’ll definitely call on her again!”

“First time using Rover and Adriana is amazing. I have a 7 month old puppy and work from home and needed last minute help with mid-day walks while working on-site. I was an apprehensive “new puppy” mom. Adriana dropped by before the scheduled walks for a meet and greet and I knew immediately my pup was in good hands. She was warm and engaging with my puppy and I highly recommend her.”

“Yana has walked our dog Shasta many times and always takes great care of her. This weekend we asked if she would be able to help us out by feeding her dinner and breakfast at her walks and she happily helped us out. Would definitely recommend Yana!”


About: I have taken care of cats and dogs from ages 4 months to 12 years! I like to learn each animals needs and modify my care for them! I work three days a week and keep an open schedule to care for others’ animals the other four days in the week! I have a flexible schedule and can even help on the days I am scheduled at my main job! I always ask for your preferences for your animals! Whether this includes walk length, treats and food, and even mannerisms, I always want to make sure YOU and your animals are comfortable!
“Tina is very conscientious and caring with my special needs pup Buoy (he's a Tripod). I was really nervous at first returning to the office having just adopted this dog who was really afraid of other people. She has really helped bring my shy dog out of his shell these last couple of weeks and always gives great (and funny) updates. I completely trust her with Buoy highly recommend her!”

About: Seeking New Furry Best Friends! Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, cuddles, or a calm companion while you're away, I'm here to provide safe, loving, and attentive care.

“Ron is fantastic with our highly energetic Corgi! He's reliable and incredibly patient, and he never seems phased by his energy. You can tell Ron puts his whole heart into it. He genuinely cares about our dog's wellbeing. Our dog Kiyo absolutely adores the walks and gets so excited whenever he sees him. We've noticed a real difference in his mood and energy levels since we started using Ron, and we couldn't recommend him more highly.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Haven-Sylvan
Erica is so amazing! Our little puppy was nervous the first few days, and Erica just sat and played with her until she was ready to go for a walk. I am continually impressed by Erica's intuition and how she goes above and beyond for our dog. You can really tell she cares!

Emma took great care of our dog on her drop in visit/walk! Our dog Hoku loves her and was so happy to see her. I trust Emma with my pets and it puts my mind at ease knowing they will be in great hands when we are away from home! She is so dependable, I will definitely continue to rebook her!

We’ve had an amazing experience with our dog walker! She is incredibly communicative, reliable, and truly goes the extra mile every time. Han and Chewie absolutely adore her, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. She always sends lots of updates and pictures, which I really appreciate—it makes such a difference being able to see how happy and well cared for they are. While I was away, one of my dogs wasn’t feeling well, and she took extra care and attention to make sure he was comfortable and looked after. That level of thoughtfulness meant so much to me. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. We will definitely continue to use her!

Sierra was communicative, flexible to accommodate my needs, and was right on time for Nola's scheduled walk. She made friends with Nola very quickly and off they went. Nola was happy and satisfied when they returned. What more could you ask for? I'll definitely hire Sierra again. :)

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 West Haven-Sylvan. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 West Haven-Sylvan. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
