About: I love dogs! At the end of the day your fur child will be happy and pooped, and you will be worry free knowing that they are in safe hands and well taken care of. Having pets of my own I am very well aware of the responsibilities that come with a dog. I know just exactly what is required of me, and what is expected. After a long hard day at work, you will be able to come home to a cuddle bug just waiting for your arrival. Or even while you are away on vacation, you can be rest assured knowing that your pet is in good hands! What comes with your pet visit: 1 on 1 attention full of love and care. 30 minutes or more of playtime at the dog park at least once per stay 15-20 min. walks (at least 3 times a day). Meals will be served morning and evening Positive reinforcement is a must! Please note that it is a MUST that your dog is neutered/spayed to prevent any accidents. And let me know of any problem behaviors so I can best understand your dog's needs and how to approach it.

Laura was a savior for us at the last minute when my wife had a leg injury and couldn't walk our pup. She was friendly and on time. We'd definitely request her again!

About: Since my teenage years, I have taken care of various pets, cats, dogs, fish, turtles, frogs, birds, rabbits, and hamsters. In Denver, Colorado, I was assistant manager for a pet shop. We not only provided retail, but we provided play space washing, and grooming. I am looking forward to working with friendly only pets. I currently work my digital editing business part-time so I have ample time to add a pet in my daily routine. I am available daily from 4:30 AM until 10 PM. My preference would be to pet sit where they reside, but if a pet does need to stay with me overnight, they can expect a friendly, quiet, playful, safe place with three levels. There's also a dog park walking distance.

About: Hi there! I am looking forward to meeting your fur babies! I am a very eager and fun animal professional who enjoys spending time with cats and dogs in both my work and personal life. I graduated with my BS in animal science and now work from home full time. I have owned pets my entire life and seen many of my pets from birth through their life cycle. I love interacting with pets of all sizes, and ages! I am extremely patient and do not at all mind the demanding nature of younger puppies. Additionally, I love being outdoors and there’s no better way to enjoy the day than with a furry friend. Never fret cat parents- there’s no discrimination here! I love cats equally as much! Cats and kittens alike offer so much in the way of affection and companionship. Feline playtime is essential and I am more than capable of keeping all of your kitties happy and entertained! Unfortunately my pups aren’t so fond so I’m limited to drop ins. My current schedule allows me to be available full time to schedule visits and walks. I have a lot of free time and would love to fill it with pet love! I love to play with pets in their preferred style! Getting down with some toys and treats is always on the agenda. Walks, jogs and good snuggles are never denied!

About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I don’t discriminate based on breed or size—I welcome them all! I have hands-on experience with dogs and can administer medication if needed. I’ll also make sure to stick to your pet’s usual routine, providing them with the care and comfort they’re used to. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a 10-year-old daughter and a 1-year-old son. Our beloved family dog was with us for 14 years before recently passing, so I truly understand how important pets are to a family. I’m home most of the time due to my toddler’s nap schedule, which means your dog will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. We also have a fenced yard, so your pup will have a safe space to play and relax. I’ll walk and feed your dog based on your instructions and do my best to keep them happy, comfortable, and loved. We’re a dog-friendly household with a decent-sized fenced backyard—perfect for play and relaxation. If you’re okay with it, we welcome dogs on the couch and treat them like part of our family while you're away. My kids absolutely love animals, so I kindly ask that your pet be kid-friendly. I do daily short walks around the neighborhood, and I’m happy to offer longer walks or hikes for an additional fee.

After a failed attempt at trying to board my dog for my upcoming vacation, I started looking for someone who was able to come to my home and take my dog out instead. I came across Elida’s profile and while I was very nervous about how the meeting would go since the failed attempt at boarding , Elida seemed like the perfect fit, so I figured I’d give it a try. I am so glad I did! Elida agreed to meet with me and Doggo twice before my trip to ensure he felt as comfortable as he could with her. While Doggo was a little nervous in the beginning, he took to her almost right away and I felt confident leaving for my vacation. Her response time was amazing and she did great in communicating with me while I was away. I had someone house sitting, and they let me know doggo was super excited to see her every time! Will definitely be booking her in the future! Thank you so much Elida! ☺️

About: Hello All, my name is Jaylen. I am a college graduate who enjoys exercise, spending time outdoors & animals. I’ve owned multiple pets over the course of my life & have dog sitting/walking experience. I’m fun, energetic, patient and outgoing, which is how I’ve always been since I was a child. I hope this introduction serves as a warm welcome to anyone who reads this. Thank you! I currently work for myself, so I’ll have a lot of time to stop by and attend to your pups! I’m free mostly after 5 throughout the week, but sometimes also before. I have a nice house with a lot of land and a fenced yard. It is very accommodating for pets, good neighborhood and very nice routes to walk.

About: Gentle (or jumpy!) giants are my specialty. I’ve spent the last 15 years sharing my life with Bullmastiffs, Dogues de Bordeaux and Cane Corsos from puppyhood to passing. Medium dogs are great but the big boys and girls are my heart. All ages welcome. My home is 100% set up for dog life. I’m retired from my full-time career but still work very part-time as a CrossFit coach, and also workout daily. Mornings I’m at the gym but home between classes and all afternoon. I have time for potty in the morning and awesome walks in the afternoon. Of course, cuddle and play time included! I have a fully fenced back yard, a dog run for their business, and a big dog bed in my living room. I have plenty of sanitized toys. Basically my home is set up to share with dogs. Unfortunately, my last baby crossed the rainbow bridge last September so I’m taking this opportunity to care for yours.

About: Ever since I was young, I have cared for many different kinds of animals and pets, from small ones like turtles and golden fish, to later adopting my first German Shepherd and my first cat. After that, the way I felt about pets completely changed. They were no longer just animals for me to take care of. In my heart, they became companions, and eventually true family members. From a young age, I naturally became interested in learning more about animals, especially cats and dogs. I started researching pet care, behavior, and the knowledge needed to understand them better. I believe every pet is different. As animal's friends, we need to be patient enough to listen, attentive enough to observe, and willing to truly understand their feelings, needs, and personalities. This mindset and these experiences have gradually deepened my passion for the pet industry and led me to step into this field. I’m a full-time caregiver and I understand that life can be unpredictable, so I offer same-day requests and one-day cancellation for added flexibility. available 24/7 to support your needs. Feel free to message/call me if you have any concern. Communication is the key. I have fenced yard and a friendly dog and two cats to keep your fur buddy company. If you request a private space, I have another individual unit with no pet. I’ll keep you updated on your pet’s activity and share their little vacation through messages, photos, and videos. Whether you’re at work, attending an event, or traveling, you can have peace of mind knowing how they’re doing at any time. We’ll spend quality time playing, walking, and keeping them engaged, so they stay happy and never bored. f you need any in-home service, we will also make sure everything is handled according to your instructions, preferences, and household rules.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. My care includes feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications when needed, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I treat every dog as if they were my own, focusing on their unique routines and personalities. I’m a college student so I have a lot of free times in my hands. There isn’t anything else I’d rather do than to spend time with your doggies If pets are in my home, I provide a safe and welcoming environment with plenty of supervision, cozy spaces for rest, and opportunities for play and exercise. I always use secure leashes and watch closely on walks to keep pets safe. My goal is to give each pet the right balance of structure, affection, and fun so they feel loved and well cared for.

It was also a really hot day and Sydney was very patient and accommodating for our senior tripod! Can’t wait to continue with Sydney :)

Yonte took incredibly good care of my dog over an extended period of time and I am very grateful for her support. My dog has some behavioral reactivity and Yonte was willing to put in the time to get to know how best to care for her. She then took care of my dog for several months, going above and beyond to meet her needs for exercise and love. I would trust Yonte with all pet sitting, from short walks to extended stays. She definitely has an intuitive sense with pets and is very loving with them. She is also incredibly kind and easy to work with. I cannot recommend Yonte highly enough for the extraordinary care and love she puts into pet sitting! Thank you, Yonte!

“My pup has officially found their new best friend! 🐾 Our dog walker goes above and beyond—whether it’s extra belly rubs, little updates with photos, or making sure my fur baby comes home happy and tired. I think my dog might like walks with them more than me (but I’ll try not to be jealous 😅). Couldn’t ask for a more caring, reliable, and tail-wag–approved walker

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Woodland dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Woodland.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
