About: I have taken care of animals since childhood. I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fancy mice, african soft furred rats, small birds, aquatic turtles, fresh water fish, and ball pythons. I have known since childhood that I wanted to care for animals. During childhood I spent my free time volunteering at my local animal shelter. Helping clean animal pens and crates. During high school I volunteered at my local animal hospital as well as the local emergency animal hospital. As of recently I have been volunteering at a senior dog rescue. I love being able to help animals and I can’t wait to help care for your furbaby(ies). I currently am a stay at home pet parent and am looking to fill my free time with more animals. Plus I love to go hiking and always find it better to with a furry companion. My yard is unfenced but I enjoyed taking my dog on as many walks she wants. Sadly I can’t host pets at my house because my cats are wary about new dogs. But I love taking dogs on nice long walks so they can stretch their legs.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Since I was a kid, I could never walk past a hurt or stray animal without stopping to help. I’ve fed and looked after stray cats and dogs, reunited lost pets with their families, and even taken in animals until they were safe. One of my earliest memories is rescuing an injured bird from kids who were trying to hurt it and nursing it back to health. I’m currently a senior high school student that has lots of free time after school so doing pet care after my school business will be no such problem at all! Every since I was young I’ve always had love for animals and now that I can willingly take care of them for people I’m need of help I’m super excited to show the skills and care I offer to their pets!

About: My family and I currently have two pups - a golden retriever/pitbull mix who is 1 year old & a brown lab/pitbull mix who is 6 months old. Both are rescues. I also have many years of experience volunteering at a local animal shelter where I have helped take care of many different types of dogs. I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend(s)! I am currently in medical school so I have a bit of a hectic schedule & do bounce between NEPA & Philadelphia. There are weeks when I am completely available & others I am completely booked. I will keep my calendar updated accordingly! I offer a warm and safe home for my own pets and any pets I take care of. I always make sure their needs are met - water full, meals on time, potty breaks whenever needed. If they're energetic, I love a good play time or a long walk!

About: “From tail wags to soft purrs—and even tiny paws and eight legs—I love helping pets feel happy and cared for. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other pets, including ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, and even tarantulas. I’ve walked, bathed, and trained animals (including a dog that became a service animal), so I know patience, attention, and trust are key. Every pet in my care gets love, safety, and companionship, just like they’re part of my family.” My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m able to provide walks, playtime, or overnight care whenever your pet needs it. I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve. “I deeply care for every pet in my care, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I keep their space clean, comfortable, and secure, and I pay close attention to their needs so they always feel nurtured and well-cared-for.”

About: Are you searching for a unique and flexible animal lover with 7 years of professional pet care experience under her belt on Rover and elsewhere? I currently work as a Dog Groomer at Petsmart, and have other past work experience from day care and boarding facilities. Let your pet(s) hang out with me while you’re away and you will have peace of mind that their routines will remain intact, and they will always stay happy and healthy during every short visit and all extended stays with me.😊 I know how to approach animals who might have anxious or cautious tendencies due to my experience with rescue animals, and have cared for several different special needs animals (ex. Blind, Deaf, heart conditions, brachycephalia) I can be entrusted to administer oral medication effectively as well. No matter the breed or demeanor, dogs seem to warm up to me very quickly. Disclaimer- we just may become best friends when they get their first back scratch. I typically accomodate with Daytime Drop-ins, 30/60 min. Dog Walks, and very flexible custom House Sitting services. Please contact me through Rover, phone, or email, and I will promptly respond to sort out an arrangement that best suits everyone, especially your pets! 🐶 I work full time as a dog groomer at Petsmart 10-6 Monday-Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. I am available for your pets all day on Thursdays and Sundays, and evenings/nights always! I offer house-sitting services for clients needing me to stay in their home while they go away for a long period of time, and also drop in visits/quick walks for clients who need someone to check on their pup during the day. I provide food and water, allow them exercise and go outside as needed, entertain them to their hearts' content, and naturally I give them all the love they deserve and then some. 🥰 I accomodate for pet care needs by providing pet sitting or walking services in the evenings and on my days off from my full time job. I do not provide services within my home, but in a client's home, I always make sure the pets are comfortable with my presence, and I care for them exactly as the pet parents require. They can contact me anytime to check on them and I always send pictures.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, both big and small. I’ve dog sitted for a couple of dogs around my neighborhood. We have trained my dog to walk off leash. Very active and would love to take your dog on a hike with me! Working part time throughout the summer. Free on weekends. Would love to stop by for early morning and evening walks/hikes! Overnight house sitting would fit right in with work. Before meeting the dog, I’ll make sure we acclimate to each others spaces. Allowing the dog to become accustomed to who I am and comfortable being walked or taken care of by me. Hopefully we’ll meet more than once and I’ll become recognizable and a friendly playmate!

About: I was raised around all kinds of animals, and have cared for cats, dogs, snakes, and rabbits. I love them all unconditionally and believe they should be raised to know full bellies, warm cozy nights, and endless love. I have experience working as a groomers assistant and a kennel attendant professionally for about 3 years as well, so I know how to handle special needs ranging from anxiety to aggression. I also understand what it's like to be tight on funds, and the need to budget tightly in order to properly care for your furry friends! If my Rover prices are too high for your budget, shoot me a message and I can help you stay in your range! I'm flexible, especially since all pets are different and require different amounts of work! I'm currently transitioning into working a typical full time job, so my once very wide open schedule has slimmed down a lot. I can best typically do check ins and walks in the early morning and in the evening. I'm assuming that I'll be doing a typical 9 to 5, so anything before 9am or after 5pm is within reach for me to make sure your pets are well cared for and loved while you're away. ❤️ You can reach out to me with any schedule questions and I can try to work something out with you! I always do my very best to be as gentle as possible with all pets! I tend to avoid using "alpha" proving tactics unless it is necessary for my or your pets safety (ex. scruffing, using chokers tightly, using the shock option over the buzz option on an electric collar). I see these options as only being necessary when the pet is acceptionally aggressive and may hurt myself, itself, or others. I'm also very cautious around doors as I know many pets would take the opportunity to bolt it into the street if they could. I can handle bruises and scratches well from excited pets! I'm usually always covered in them from my own fur babies.

About: I've taken care and rescued all sorts of animals from guinea pigs to giant pitties. I have been in rescue for about 9 years. It comes out of pocket, but if I don't save them or help who will? I am also good at medication injection and oral administration of medication as well. I can do walks, check in's, doggy day care, house sit, etc. I will accommodate your needs for your furbaby. I am not afraid of bigger dogs as most people might be. I think of them as giant teddy bears. I will send plenty of updates and pictures as I know leaving your furbaby with a stranger can be absolutely nerve wrecking. Whatever makes my customer happy I will be more than willing to meet their request. Just give me instruction, your furbabies name, any allergies, medications, walk/yard time and frequency, feeding schedule, and any other information you see fit and I guarantee your precious furbaby will find a new friend! I am currently employed part time and in school part time this semster over at Johnson College for Veterinary Nursing. My schedule is pretty packed, but I will make accommodations with you to accommodate the needs of your furbabies or ones with scales. I moved in March of last year so boarding at the new place might be a bit busy. I do have enough room to accommodate at least 3 dogs. I don't have a fenced in yard at my apartment however I love to take them on long walks. I have walked dogs of all sizes. Super tiny to 100+lbs. I also have my own pupper Krypto so if boarding at my home please make sure your dog is other dog friendly as well as cats. I have 2 cats, 1 dog, 1 rat and a goldfish. If you are looking to board in my home I suggest a meet & greet to make sure your furbabies and mine are safe for their stay. I care for my clients furbabies like they are my own. I make sure the furbabies are happy and healthy. I will make sure my clients needs and wants are met. If you need me to watch them at your house, your house will be treated like my home. I will make sure your home is like you left it. I love to send updates because I know leaving your furbabies is really nerve wrecking.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Alden

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Alden on Rover is $10.7 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 426 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Alden. 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 Alden. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Alden.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 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 Alden. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
