“Gianna started walking my dog weekly about a month ago. I went back and forth as to whether or not I wanted to hire someone given my dog’s reactivity on walks. I could not be happier with our choice to have Gianna!! She is responsible, communicative, patient and kind. My dog is noticeably happier when I get home, and it feels like a huge weight is off our shoulders to know he is being cared for by someone who cares for and loves him like I do. I can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Carmen is wonderful with our dog, dependable, and always caring and attentive. I really appreciate the peace of mind she provides and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker!”
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover who has 20 years of experience with high-need small breeds to larger pittie mixes. I have experience with medication management, fragile pets with mobility issues, anxiety and more. I work full-time from home so as long as I have a WiFi connection I’m in good shape. Plenty of time for walks and playtime I am available for walks, drop ins, day care or boarding in my home or yours. I have a fenced yard and literal miles of sidewalks and trails near me for walks. I offer run of the house for dogs who can do that, or safe smaller spaces for little ones. I have lots of experience with maintaining a safe environment for pets with anxiety, mobility issues or other conditions.
“Melissa is wonderful! I have used her services twice. She is very communicative and goes above and beyond. She is attentive and makes sure to check my dog’s water bowl. She sends me great pictures of their walks together. She gave me great peace of mind!”
“Tyler did a great job with Brodie while we were away! She was communicative, reliable, and took great care of him. We really appreciated the updates and knowing Brodie was in good hands. We’d definitely book with her again! 😊”
“Charles was absolutely excellent with Adam! Adam loved all his walks. Charles is totally reliable, cooperative pleasant and trustworthy. You can trust Charles when you go away on any vacation or trips. He did an amazing job and I will use him every time we go away from now on.”
“Very happy with Josh & Andres. I have 2 large dogs, one is leash reactive, and they’re both a bit fear aggressive, Josh & Andres manage them well, and I am always confident they’re in good hands with them. I don’t let just anyone walk them. Josh & Andres communicate well and keep me up to date. Highly recommend.”
“Kai made a fast friend with Duncan! Great first experience with Rover. Duncan showed up early and my anxiety ridden moose was all too happy to go for a walk with him. Duncan has the experience, confidence, and personality to make a pet owner comfortable right off the bat. I can’t recommend too highly or his availability might drop!”
“Erin was very professional and courteous when handling our dog, who is currently poorly socialized and overly eager to meet people. Also was amenable and accomodating to changing the kind of services that I needed midday”
“Xin is a wonderful dog walker- she's a great communicator, excellent with our dog and timely! She even did some research on harnesses and leashes for us! We will continue to use Xin and highly recommend her to other families.”
“Julia did a great job with Oakley! She took for a nice long walks and he seemed super happy in the pictures she shared. She had good communication and I would definitely used her again.”
About: I’ve always been an animal person and have helped care for my family’s dogs and cats for the last 16 years in addition to working in animal care for the last 2 years. I have experience working in a dog boarding facility and have volunteered to foster 6 puppies over the last year until they each were adopted by a loving family. I adopted my own cattle dog mix, Zoe, 4 years ago at 4 months old and worked with a trainer for over one year to train her as my service dog. She is now a task-trained service dog and accompanies me to college classes. Availability for Daycare and Boarding 2026-27: December 13th-26th, January 4th-26th Also available for Daycare on the following Sundays: 10/25 11/1 11/8 11/22 11/29 12/6 12/13 I am currently a college student and will be on winter break from December 13th, 2026 - January 26th, 2027. Since I won’t have any classes to attend, I can spend all day with your pet! I have plenty of time for walks and play times! I can also let them outside in the fenced backyard for potty breaks whenever they need. I have a large, fenced-in front and back yard with 3 miles of public wooded trails connecting to my neighborhood, as well as two miles of sidewalk inside my neighborhood for walks. I am able to do as long or short of a walk as your dog needs. My 4 year old cattle dog, Zoe, loves to play and is very friendly with all other dogs and cats. Zoe is with me most of the time whereas my cats will come and go around the house (and are kept separate from visiting dogs). I will shape my day around caring for your pet so they get as much activity and attention as they need!
“Destiny was great with Belle. She came to pick her up on time, communicated with me in details about her walk with Belle and Belle seems very pleased with her. Will definitely recommend.”

Alissa is so great with our energetic and playful pup, and he absolutely adores her! She always helps us when we are in a pinch, and we’re so grateful to have found her. She’s responsible, communicative and conscientious. And very competent with all our dogs’ quirky behaviors!
Julia, I want to thank you for stepping up and helping us when another walker had a family emergency starting the first day of the booking. Moxie enjoyed your company and attention and I was able to complete a business transaction without the distraction of worrying about Moxies's welfare. Good Job!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Ashton-Sandy Spring is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Ashton-Sandy Spring. 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 Ashton-Sandy Spring 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 Ashton-Sandy Spring. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% 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.
