Danica has been great with my anxious dog! Maci warmed up to her very quickly. Danica is very flexible and accommodating with my crazy schedule. Maci is in a good mood when I get home on days when Danica takes her for a walk!

My two dogs had a great time with John. My neighbor saw him walking the dogs and was impressed with his enthusiasm and care. I agree. Thanks John for helping me out. I will definitely try to book John again the next time.

About: I’ve had pets (dogs and cats) since I was young and as a teen to adult have taken care of them well into their old age. Some of my pets have required extra care as they aged, and I was able to keep them comfortable while having all of their needs met. As a teen, neighbors would trust me for house drop-ins and dog walking regularly when they went on vacation or even had a sudden event that made them late to give their pets dinner. I’m capable of taking care of all needs including giving medications to stubborn dogs and cats, accident clean-up, litter box maintenance, walking, brushing, and bathing. **Years of experience ~4 collectively in which I was paid for pet-sitting services, owned and cared for pets my whole life. I am full time work from home, so I can easily schedule throughout the day to drop by for your pet, or I can bring my computer to your home and spend the day with your pets if you’d prefer! Additionally, I am available most weekends and weekday evenings after 5pm. I do occasionally travel for work, so booking at least a week in advance is preferred so that I can be sure of my availability. I have one dog (black lab, 7 y/o) and one cat (13 y/o). Both are very friendly, but my cat will most likely keep to herself. I have a fenced in yard where the dogs can roam, and live near a park with a walking trail so a long walk is also an option. My lawn has been treated for ticks and fleas.

Kendall has been wonderful with my rescue pup who’s experiencing a lot of separation anxiety since we moved and I’ve been having to travel for work a few days a week. She’s very communicative and I can tell she takes great care of all the pets that are in her charge. I would highly recommend Kendall for your pet sitting/walking needs any time!

About: I have been around animals and dogs all my life. I was raised on a three hundred acres veil farm in upstate NY where we had German Shepherds, Mastiff, Boarder Collies and Springer Spaniels . The last twenty plus years I have worked with Akita rescue in Florida and have personally owned two Akita's of my own Jayda my heart dog who passed in 2023 and Raider who passed away in 2014. I had hands on training from an Air Force Marine who use to train Belgian Malinois and German Shepherds, but don't let that fool you, I am a sucker for the small guys too! It will be a pleasure of mine to be able to walk, or care for your pet when you need the help. I am currently working part-time. I do have most morning, afternoon and some evenings available for walks, potty breaks, play time and or feedings available. I an not able to take in pets to my home as my son has his little sweet pitty staying with me at this time and does not like to share me with other pets.

About: I've been a passionate animal caretaker most of my life. At a young age I began pet sitting for family, friends and neighbors. I raised several litters of bunnies, was the whelping helper for my Scottish Terrier twice, and rescued an African Grey Parrot 27 years ago. He is happily living with my Shih Tzu and Great Pyrenees. My husband and I have two adult college students, so our pets are extra spoiled these days! I'm currently an Elementary School Teacher, so I am available after 3pm during the weekdays. I am available and flexible on the weekends and during the summer. I would like to know your rules and procedures that are expected in your home, so I can provide that same care to keep your pets happy and safe.

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.

About: I’m new to the area and excited to be living on the East Coast! I’ve spent my entire life around animals, and about 10 years ago I ran a successful pet-sitting business on the West Coast. I’m excited to get back to doing something I genuinely love. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals—dogs, cats, hamsters, hedgehogs, lizards, snakes, horses, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, and plenty of others. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from Pit Bulls to Chihuahuas and everything in between. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets, puppies, anxious pets, animals with special needs, and pets who need medications. The one exception? Spiders. (((shudder))) Never spiders. I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and care for your pets the way you do. Whether your pet needs a brief visit or several hours of companionship, I’m happy to tailor each visit to their needs. Walks, meals, medication, playtime, or simply some company—I’m happy to give your pets the attention they deserve. At this time, I’m offering check-in visits only and am not able to provide overnight care. I have a special-needs rescue dog of my own who cannot be left alone overnight. However, I can make as many visits during the day as your pets need and can stay for as long as necessary during each visit. I have plenty of references from previous pet-sitting clients and am happy to provide them upon request. I understand that trusting someone with your pets - and your home - is a big deal, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pets are safe, happy, comfortable, and cared for just as you would want. My #1 priority is to provide loving care when you’re not there. I’m available all day, seven days a week—including holidays. I’m happy to accommodate early mornings, late nights, and even last-minute requests. I can work with your schedule. When I’m in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow the pet’s normal routine and schedule. This helps ease the anxiety of having someone new in their space while their parents are away. I also respect your privacy—I know how it feels to have someone go through your belongings, and I could never imagine violating that trust.

When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.

About: With a lifelong passion for dogs and three years of hands-on training in animal science at TCHS, I provide expert care in walking, feeding, grooming, and administering medications.

I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner to maintain their pets' routine, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or medication. I’m committed to providing personalized care and always prioritize the well-being of each animal, ensuring a stress-free experience while you're away.

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 September 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 September 2026, there are 5,441 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
  • 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.
