About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also fostered dogs with a wide range of temperaments and behaviors. For every dog I've taken care of, I make sure to adapt to each of their needs, routines, and comfort level. I aim to provide patient, attentive care so every dog feels safe and comfortable. I'm currently working from home so I'll be available to your dog at all times. I usually walk my dog at least 3 times a day. Happy to adjust to whatever your dog may need! I keep a variety of dog toys available for your dog's entertainment, and I have a small/medium-sized crate available if your dog is crate trained or prefers having a quiet space to relax. Generally, I try to follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home.
“Jayly was great. Very communicative and took good care of our dog for his walk. Jayly also followed instructions for the dog’s particular feeding needs. We’ll definitely contact him again.”
About: I work from home full-time, so your dog gets company and supervision all day: no long stretches alone. My basement-level apartment has a private, fully enclosed outdoor open-sky patio with direct sliding-door access for easy care, play, and sunbathing. I’ve fostered dogs before and share my home with Jasper, my friendly 5-year-old corgi, who loves canine company (we do a meet-and-greet before every booking to make sure everyone’s comfortable). Daily routine includes walks, play sessions, and photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing. Neutered/spayed dogs only, please or we can talk about it in depth before booking. I work from home full-time and go gig work on the side. My work and career are flexible to meet the needs of those who are looking for a treat extra support and care! I can easily adapt to any needs for care. Since I work from home, pups can stay out and about with me all day. We take multiple walks throughout the day around the neighborhood and/or the block which is very dog friendly. Additionally, there is a park within 10 minutes walk and a dog park within 10 minutes walk however we typically will stay on our back patio and do treat dispensing play toys, splash pad days, or general lounging. The patio is where the pups love to explore and lay out on in the sun. It is cleaned off daily and deep cleaned weekly.
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 20 years and have experience with dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. I currently have a senior Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier who has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying close attention to changes in behavior or health. I know every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I'm happy to provide the care they need. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're apart. I work a hybrid schedule and work from home at least three days a week, giving me flexibility to spend quality time with your dog throughout the day. My in-office days are also flexible, so I can often adjust my schedule when needed. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, potty breaks, or just some companionship, I'll do my best to keep them on their normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I'll follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet's normal routine, and always prioritize their safety and comfort. I'm attentive to changes in behavior and will communicate with you promptly if I notice anything concerning. Whether caring for your pet in your home or taking them on walks, I'll treat them with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own dog.
“Yuji was a lifesaver! He was able to step in last minute when our regular dog walker couldn't make it. He was very professional and punctual, and our pup seemed to enjoy their walk. We would definitely recommend Yugi and would use his services again.”
“Karalyn is a doll ! Great response time too . This is the first time I have left my dog ( whistle) alone. Karalyn came 2 days before to meet whistle. I was instantly at ease as soon a I met Karalyn! She texted me pictures and keep me week aware of what was going on !”
“Kaili did a great job handling my corgi! She is really responsible and friendly with dogs. I was calm during the trip knowing that Kaili will walk my cutie pie. Don’t hesitate to use Kaili’s help!”
“Tiffany is a clear communicator, was open and detailed about her availability, and I really appreciated her flexible with some scheduling adjustments. She left a detailed post-walk note and took note of things like leash pulling that we had mentioned we are trying to work on. Though usually shy, our dog Missy was instantly comfortable with Tiffany.”
“It was my first time hiring a dog walker for Fuji and I must admit, I was very nervous. However, Marissa was phenomenal, I can’t recommend her enough. She over communicated, she was super patient, very helpful, punctual and kept my mind at ease while I was away. Fuji really enjoyed her too! Thank you again, Marissa!”
“David! What a blessing! I was in a pinch and he responded quickly and went right over to help me out with Fred. Would definitely hire again. Thank you!!!”
About: I have two cats at home in Michigan who I love dearly and take care of: cleaning litter boxes, feeding, playing, etc. I also grew up with medium-sized dogs, love dogs oh so much, and have experience with their care as well: taking outside, going on walks, feeding, playing, etc. No explicit professional experience, but I can’t wait to gain some!!!! I love animals with every bone in my body :) I am a barista almost full-time and an aspiring actor, so auditions are a heavy part of my schedule. Shorter tasks and small drop-in visits are best for me! I love pets and treat them with so much love and care. There is nothing more special to me than the love of an animal, and I will do anything needed to keep their routine consistent and fun!
“Meline is fantastic with our mini Aussie! He has so much energy and she matches that, always making us feel super comfortable that blue is safe and protected and having a lot of fun! He absolutely adores her! I’m a Walker as well as a dog mom and I highly recommend Meline!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Astoria
Cat was amazing with my 70 lb. dog, Buddy. She was very professional, reliable, and had a calming influence on both my dog and cat, so much so that my dog danced around when he knew she was coming. She took him for several 30 minute walks a day and he always came back happy. I would absolutely hire her again.
I cannot say enough good things about Tingli and Samuel. They have been a godsend for evenings and weekends and last minute bookings. I also feel very confident in their care for my dog, who is bigger and reactive. They are very capable, communicative, courteous, and considerate. I highly recommend them!!
Noga is such an excellent sitter! She’s observant and communicative in the way you would hope for someone caring for your precious pup. She gives us peace of mind when we have to be away from our beloved Mina. Would book again and again. Thank you so much, Noga!
My dog told me he was considering packing his bags and moving in with Jessica. I was sad at first, but I get it. She's a natural with dogs. They gravitate to her, and with good reason. Marshall absolutely adores Jessica and I am beyond grateful to have found her on here. You should not hesitate, book Jessica immediately. She's awesome.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Astoria on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 28,714 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Astoria. 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 Astoria. 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 Astoria.

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 Astoria. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
