“Murphy loves Kristie! I knew from the meet & greet that this would be a good fit. Since our needs are not regular we made a plan on how to handle keys which worked perfectly for us. Highly recommend Kristie!”
About: My background in education has provided me with the exceptional level of reliability. My daily work with children translates directly into calm, patient care with animals. As I go out to different places dogs seem to gravitate towards me. I am currently working as a Teacher's Assistant. I have two dogs of my own and I walk them almost daily. We go for hikes on the weekends and lots of car rides. I treat them like my fur babies. My primary goal is to maintain a predictable, secure, and stress-free environment where your pets feel completely safe. I make sure that the doors, gates and windows are completely locked after every visit. I follow all schedules that you lay out.

Comfortable handling everything from small lap dogs to large and active working breeds. Supported leash training, crate training, and reinforcement of basic commands like sit, stay, and come. Provided gentle, attentive care to pets with arthritis, anxiety, or dietary restrictions. As someone who currently works from home, I’m able to offer flexible scheduling and personalized attention for your pets. Whether your dog needs mid-day potty breaks, your cat wants company while you're away, or you need overnight care—I’ve got you covered! Respect the pets routine, sticking to feeding schedules, walks and potty breaks. Maintaining their sleeping routine. Providing daily updates including photos and videos. Treating the clients home with care and professionalism.
“Liz is FANTASTIC. Scheduling and communication were very easy. My dog is shy and fearful around new people, but he warmed up to Liz immediately. She knew exactly how to approach him and pick up on his cues and make him feel comfortable. Highly recommend.”
“Tiara was great at checking in before her first walk with Rocky. She arrived and asked good questions about where to find all of his things, and how to handle running into other dogs on their walk. Rocky had lunch, a nice walk, and got to play with all of his puzzle toys with Tiara! We’ve already booked our next walks with her.”

About: Hi! I’m 30 and I have been pet sitting on Rover for over three years for dogs and cats of all ages and needs. I may be petite but don’t be fooled! I am an aerialist in my spare time, and so I have a lot of upper body strength and can handle large, strong dogs as well as high energy dogs who need long, brisk walks for proper exercise. I have experience with older pets and am comfortable administering medications. Let me know if you would like me to water plants, turn on/off lights, or any other tasks while you are away. Whether you need an extra walk for a feisty pooch, care during your family vacation, or long-term assistance, feel free to contact me for a meet and greet. During COVID era, your comfort is of upmost importance. Please let me know if you would like me to wear a mask indoors, wipe down door handles, etc. to ensure your safety. I work full-time in the animal welfare field, so I am most available for weekend and long weekend pet sitting. I can do occasional weekday walks as well. Safety and mental wellbeing are my top priorities. I always make sure dogs are leashed before going out the door and avoid other dogs and people during walks, just to be safe.

About: Hi! I'm a dedicated dog lover based in the Lehigh Valley area. I've had my own dog for the past 6 years, and one of my favorite things to do is get outside and go on walks with him. Caring for dogs has always been a part of my life, and I've helped family, friends, and neighbors with feeding, walking, and caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every dog has different needs, whether they're energetic and love long walks or prefer a slower, more relaxed pace. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their well-being. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and communicative. I'll make sure your pup gets the exercise, attention, and care they deserve, and I'll keep you updated along the way. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I’m a recent college graduate and currently looking for work. In the mean time I feel like this is the perfect opportunity to get outside and enjoy the time off while i search for a career! The safety of the dog is my number one priority whenever I walk or play with dogs. If a dog needs to be kept away from other dogs or humans, I am always attentive toward my surroundings making sure that is followed. A dog’s routine is always important and I can make sure that it is kept up while I am entrusted with their care.
“Megan did a great job caring for my elderly dog. When she brought him back from the walk, she even contacted me and asked me if there’s anything she should be doing when he was brought home to get him settled in the house. No one‘s ever asked me that before.”

I currently take all online college courses so as long as you have wifi you can have me haha! I do have a busy schedule through Rover so I do quite a few drop in visits and walks throughout the week and I have a second job. I do ask that if you plan to book an overnight stay with me your pup can be left alone for at least 5-8 hours! I will be more than happy to take your special baby on walks around the neighborhood or (if you are comfortable for a quick car ride to the park!) I can also utilize the backyard if you have one. I am more than happy to crate them if you prefer or comply to any special request!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alpha
We recently worked with Kristie, as she helped routinely walk our dog while we were away on vacation. Before we left, Kristie came on her own time and met us and our dog. We were a bit nervous for anyone to walk our dog because he is a near 100 lb. chocolate Labrador Retriever who is full of energy and pulls while walking. While we were away, Kristie handled him great and it was evident that our dog loved her. Great people like Kristie are hard to come by and we would highly recommend her! We plan to use Kristie anytime we need pet sitting or dog walking in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Alpha on Rover is $27.75 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 2,916 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Alpha. 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 Alpha. 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 Alpha.

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 Alpha. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
