“Kate and my dog got along great. I was nervous because he had a tummy problem the day before, but she followed the request I sent her the night before/note I left at the house and my dog had a stress free day in his own house while I took a day trip to visit family. Would definitely use her again!”

“Jen and Jonathan walked our dog Little Belle twice a day for over an hour each time. Our dog loved them and couldn’t stop wiggling her tail whenever they arrived. They were super reliable and helpful and made this a great experience for all of us. We will definitely book them again!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was at least 15 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of the furry little creatures. I make sure they’re well taken care of so you never have to worry! I will always make sure your little furry children are well taken care of and full of energy for the next day! I was working home improvement for a few months with a mobile company. My boss currently couldn’t afford to have employees work for him so he let us go. I will be free 100% of the time for your furry children. I will be looking for another job of course.. but currently and for a while I will be available 100% of the time for the week. In the clients home, I will be able to crate the dog if necessary and needed. If they have a fenced in yard the dog will be able to roam freely and have some freedom. If not I will make sure to leash the dog and keep an eye on them 100% of the time. Cats of course if the owner says they do leash them and take them for walks, that will happen. Leashed in the back yard unless told otherwise. Free to roam in the house Obviously whenever!

About: I have had many dogs in my life time and I enjoy walking, talking to, caring for and spending time with dogs when I can. I miss my pets but I am not ready to get one of my own. However, I would love to help you care for your pet when you are gone. I am a teacher during the school year. I usually can help you out on the weekend or nights during the school year. During the summer I can help more often in a variety of days and times. My fur babies have all past. When I have helped friends and family take care of their pets I make sure to get to know their fur baby before they need me to care for them. I learn their pet's routines and I try to spend some time with them so they know my sent. This makes it more comfortable for the owner and pet when I am with them.

About: I am a local environmental science student with extensive experience in professional pet and house sitting. Having grown up with dogs and cats, I have provided dependable care for repeat clients since the age of 12. I would welcome the opportunity to care for your animals and can provide references upon request. I am a local college student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to commit to various shifts. I am generally available to work during evenings and on weekends. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my availability aligns with your current needs. Caring for my own two dogs led me to discover a passion for working with animals, and I am now seeking opportunities to gain professional experience as I pursue a career in this field. To ensure both you and your pets are comfortable, I typically offer a pre-visit to meet in person. This allows us to discuss your specific care instructions and ensures you are confident in my services as a caretaker.

About: I've had a lot of dogs to watch! Every variety of sizes, ages, and breeds. With me, there will never be a dull time! I enjoy playing with them and taking walks with them. I adore getting a pup cup and taking them for vehicle rides! (Of course, if they are permitted to have it). I just want to make them happy because that's how happy they make me! I have a flexible schedule and work mostly from home. I’ll be coming to your home, so your pup gets to stay comfortable in their own environment. I’m usually around during the day, and if I ever need to step out, it’s only for a couple of hours at most. On weekends, I’m fully available and can give your pet plenty of love, walks, and attention. If you have a specific schedule or needs, just let me know in advance, I’m happy to accommodate! I make sure they stick to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll come by as often as needed for walks, playtime, feeding, and any extra care your pet requires. I love spending time with them, whether that’s a walk around the neighborhood, playtime with their favorite toy, or just giving them attention and cuddles. I always keep you updated with messages and pictures so you know your furry friend is happy and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so I’ve always been around them and know how to care for them. I’m really good with dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m comfortable with dogs of all different sizes and personalities, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m responsible, caring, and will make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, love, and exercise while they’re with me. I work full time Monday through Friday, but I’m fully available on the weekends. During the week, I’m available for drop-ins and walks in the mornings and later in the day after work. I’ll do my best to work around your schedule and make sure your pets get the care and attention they need. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll always make sure they are supervised and treated with patience and respect. I understand that every dog and cat is different, so I’ll take the time to learn their routine, personality, and anything they need while they’re with me. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where your pet can feel right at home.

About: I've been taking care of my own pets since I was eight years old. Currently I take care of my bichon and bichon poodle in my home. I have pet sat Maine Coon cats, labrador retrievers, golden retrievers, basset hounds, beagles, and german shepherds. Additionally, I have experience that ranges from puppy care to senior care. I am more than happy to do a phone call or meet in person so we can get to know each other, or stop by to meet the pups before I stay with them :) I'm working part-time right now, so I will have plenty of time for your pets! I am super flexible and don't mind getting up early/leaving late. In your home, I am more than happy to accomodate the routines for your dog and the routines of your household. It's important to me to keep the dogs safe, utilizing baby gates, shutting doors/cabinets, and having fences as needed.

About: I’ve spent the last 10 years providing attentive, hands-on care for dogs—including my own pets and trusted dogs for friends. I understand that every dog has their own routine and comfort zone. Whether your pup prefers a quiet indoor space, regular gentle walks, or just a calm, stable companion while you're away, I provide a safe, reliable, and stress-free environment. I work from home full-time, which gives me incredible flexibility throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long stretches—I’m available for regular potty breaks, gentle walks, and plenty of companionship while I work. Because my schedule is predictable, I can easily adapt to your dog’s specific feeding, walking, and medication routines. My home is a comfortable split-level in a quiet, walkable neighborhood equipped with plenty of yards and sidewalks for safe outdoor exercise. Inside, there are cozy couches with sunny spots perfect for lounging and relaxing. I focus on creating a calm, secure, and stress-free environment, maintaining clear boundaries and constant supervision to keep your pet safe and comfortable.

About: I am a lover of all animals and will treat yours like my own. I was a Dog Trainer at Petsmart for 3 years. I have two dogs, two horses, and a cat of my own. We live on a farm that opens up to the woods so we love to exercise and we also love to hit the trails at Solider's Delight or the Westminster pond. All sizes and breeds are welcome. If they need special care or medication, I am also able to assist with that. If there's any other pets in the house, I am knowledgeable with most. You’re welcome to call and check in at any time, and you’ll receive text or email updates daily. I hope you will consider me in your search to find someone to care for your pet family. I work full time, but happy to help your family out with the furry, feathery, or scaling member of the family just like my own. Just like my own! I try to stay as organized as possible, so a list to go off of is preferred! I'm happy to spend time caring for your pet.

About: Family and friends have always relied on me to feed, walk, and play with their pets. Animals are my passion and it's a joy to make them happy. They need love and compassion, no matter what. I have a soft spot for senior cats and dogs, and it's a joy to provide them with comfort. I especially love working with shy cats who don't like strangers! I always get them to break out of their shell and into my lap 🥰 I put in the extra effort to make sure all animals in my care have an incredibly fun time! Nothing is more fulfilling than doting on them and providing relief for their caring owners! I have an open schedule all week, and can care for your pets any time of day, or for an extended period of time. My availability is very flexible and I'm always eager to work around everyone's schedule so your babies have the care and attention they deserve! Your pets will be safe and at ease with me. I'm respectful of their emotions and boundaries, and ensure that they know I'm only there to dote on them. Even though their parents are away, I do everything in my power to ensure they are safe, healthy, and happy.

“Chelsea was wonderful! She treated my puppies like they were her own. My border collie was hesitant at first (he always is when he first meets someone) but he warmed up to her very quickly. She sent daily pictures which helped us know our puppies were well taken care of while we were out of town. I've even asked Chelsea to be our go-to sitter and dog walker!”

FAQs for Dog Walking - Armacost

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 4,314 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Armacost. 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 Armacost. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Armacost after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Armacost. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
