About: I've been taking care of my corgi, Muffin, for 10+ years since she was a puppy! Trained, fed, walked, played, etc. I've done drop-by visits for both dogs and cats for pet parents who are traveling. I've also taken care of my neighbors dogs many times while the owners were out on vacation. Also included in my photos are farm animals that I had the pleasure of hanging out with the past two summers! Happy to accommodate to your pet sitting needs! As an upcoming college student currently working a part time job this summer, I have some free time to spare! I would love to help out in any way I can. In my home, me and my corgi play fetch and lounge around outside in our big fenced in backyard! I will put in the same amount of effort for your pets that I do for mine. There are also many amazing parks nearby where I walk my dog!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and have experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I love making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away — whether that means long walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles. I’m a part-time student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of time with your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care throughout the week and weekends. I love keeping pets on their usual routine and making sure they get lots of attention and exercise. I have a safe, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love company. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they’re comfortable, loved, and secure. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will always follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, and care routines. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities!

About: I've grew up taking care of my family pets along with pet sitting for neighbors. I love animals and have 1 dog and 3 cats myself which I've adopted. You can rely on me to walk, feed, bathe or even give medicine to your pet if needed. My schedule is very flexible if you need me to take your dog for a walk during the day or need a pet sitter during the week/weekend I am available. My apartment is spacious with a park right up the block making it great and convenient for walking pets. I have one dog and three cats who all get along and could keep your dog company. I know each person has their own way to take care of their pets so I can follow whatever instructions that you may have for me.

Kathryn was great! We needed a dog walker in a pinch and Kathryn was able to make it work! She took time to do a meet and greet on the weekend and we felt very comfortable with Kathryn walking our dog. She took the time to learn about her traits and what made a walk successful for our dog reactive dog. Would definitely recommend!

Renee has cared for my 10 month old Doberman puppy for 5 months now on weeks when I am in office. She is quick to respond, highly communicative, and flexible with my puppy’s changing medical needs. I can tell that Renee cares about what she does, and it’s been a huge relief to find someone who can confidently handle my high energy pup. I’ve used a few dog walkers due to various scheduling needs, and Renee has been our favorite 🐶 I recommend her for all your doggy’s care needs!

About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for pets for years, including raising my own dog since he was a puppy. I’m very involved in his daily care, including feeding, walks, routines, giving lots of attention, and helping manage medical needs when needed. Because of this, I understand how important patience, consistency, and trust are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m also very comfortable with cats and enjoy spending time with different personalities, whether they’re playful, shy, energetic, or need extra comfort and care. I’ll always treat pets like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I recently graduated high school and will be starting college soon, so I have a very open and flexible schedule this summer! I do work part-time, but outside of my work schedule I’m available most days and have plenty of time to give pets attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. Since I don’t have many major summer plans, I’m happy to be flexible and work around your pet’s needs and routine. Since I will be caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to help them feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible by sticking to their normal routine. I’m very attentive to instructions and will make sure your pet gets the care, attention, exercise, feeding, potty breaks, and affection they need while you’re away. I also have hands-on experience with crate training through my own dog, who is crate trained and comfortably sleeps in his crate when prompted. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and making pets feel secure in their environment. I will always treat your home and pets with respect and care as if they were my own.

About: Hello! I have been in the animal care industry for almost two decades. During this time I was certified as an Animal Care Technician. My training taught me proper handling, how to read body language, and how to gauge temperament in each pet. I have dealt with dogs and cats of various sizes and ages. Other qualifications that set me apart include administering medication to pets, bathing dogs, and teaching dogs basic commands. While visiting your pet I can provide light house-keeping. I have a genuine passion for animals, and hope to someday pursue a career in the field. Thank you for your consideration! Looking for pets who need lunch visits/walks! I enjoy taking care of pets in my spare time. I relish getting out of my house as I currently work from home. I try to treat every pet as if it were my own. When coming into a client's home, I am respectful, and try to leave things in better condition than I found them.

About: Hi my name is Rachel i’m 21 years old looking for pet owners who need pet assistance. I’m currently studying business at del tech community college and i’m a third year. I have babysat dogs and cats before and overnight sat as well. I enjoy being around animals they make me happy. I also own a doggie named Teddy of my own he’s 6 years old and he’s a shitzu. Caring for a pet requires consistency, time management, and attention to their physical and emotional needs. Depending on the type of pet, daily tasks may include feeding, providing fresh water, exercising, grooming, cleaning living spaces, and monitoring health and behavior. I walk my dog Teddy, a shitzu everyday twice and he doesn’t have an open yard. Caring for pets at a clients home depend on the space and environment.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Avondale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Avondale on Rover is $25 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 5,636 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Avondale. 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 Avondale. 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 Avondale.

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 Avondale. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
