About: I’ve had pets all my life—countless cats, three dogs, two parakeets, fish, and two ferrets. I worked for PetSmart for a year, caring for their animals, and have experience with sick pets. I volunteered at my local Humane Society for a while as a dog walker, and I owner-trained my current dog, a retired/at-home service dog. I’m currently free the majority of the day and at night. As long as I have enough time to take care of my own pup at home, I can arrange my schedule around taking care of your pets, too! I’m a big fan of maintaining routine for pets whose people are out of town. I like to follow a schedule for feedings and walks and to maintain a training routine if that’s part of your life!
About: Hello! I am 27 years old, and I've always been surrounded by animals, whether they were mine or a friend's. I've cared for all sorts of animals, from fluffy to scaley. I have a soft spot for big personalities, and senior animals. Caring for a dog or cat that requires extra care, whether due to age/health/tempermant, is something I actually really enjoy. I take a lot of pride in having a lot of patience with animals, but I'm also happy to enforce routine and structure for their own benefit! I do my best to be available for whatever the pet needs, whether it be feeding, cleaning litter, taking them on walks, or sitting overnight. I'm a homebody so I don't go out much, except for walks and outings! I consider it my main job as your petsitter to make sure I take great care of your pet! My goal is keeping your home just as clean as you left it, and your pet happier! I'm generally a tidy, quiet person so no worries about disturbing the neighbors, and if your dog has special treats or toys I'd love to hear about them!
“Alura was thankfully and very gratefully able to fit my baby girl into her schedule immediately. While my pup was a little skiddish at first, she warmed up to Alura and was able to go on her walks while I was recovering.”
“Jessica is great with Jasper! You can easily see how caring she is toward her furry friend and her profession. Jessica comunicates well, and follows direction. We'd love to have her again!”
About: I've spent the last 14 years working in veterinary medicine, caring for pets through every stage of life—from energetic puppies to senior companions and pets with medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications, monitoring pets with chronic health conditions, and recognizing when something doesn't seem quite right. What I enjoy most is getting to know each pet as an individual. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I believe those details matter. My goal is to provide the same level of thoughtful, compassionate care I'd want for my own pets, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're in capable hands. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care, plenty of attention, and regular updates throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, enrichment activities, playtime, or simply having someone nearby for company, I'm happy to adjust my care to fit their routine. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any medical or behavioral needs before every booking. If your pet is staying in my home, they'll have plenty of opportunities for play, enrichment, rest, and affection in a calm environment. To help keep everyone safe—including my own two dogs—I currently only accept small dogs (up to 30 lbs) for boarding and daycare, and I require a meet-and-greet before every boarding stay. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I do my best to keep their daily routine as consistent as possible while respecting your home and following your instructions carefully.
About: Ive had dogs ever since I was young. I don’t currently have pets, but my childhood dogs were a German Shepard mix and a little chihuahua. My German Shepard had so much energy and loves to stay active, so I understand what it’s like to have a very energetic dog - and love spending time with them. PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING I have a very flexible schedule due to working from home & will spend most of the day with your pup. However, I sometimes need to step out for personal errands, but I’m never gone for more than 2–3 hours at a time, and I always plan around the dogs’ needs—bathroom breaks, feeding, and general care. Please take this into consideration when booking with me. If needed I can do daily visits to see your pet in your home during the day, and go on walks, and basically play as much as your pet wants. ;)
About: I’m a dependable animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all personalities and energy levels. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for animals such as dogs, cats, guinea pigs, goats, horses, and donkeys including feeding, walks, playtime, medication routines, and giving anxious pets extra patience and attention. I understand how important updates are, so I make sure owners receive regular photos and communication for peace of mind. I am home full time and won’t leave your pet alone. I am available for pet sitting, boarding, drop ins or walks! I work from home, and will not be leaving your pets side. I am happy to pick up your pet from your house as well. Whatever you need just let me know! I have a house with a fenced yard. We have no other pets and no children so it will make a perfect calm place for any pets that are nervous from being away from their own home.
“My anxious dogs immediately took to Rylie and had such a great long walk. Rylie was very communicative and responsive when scheduling and super understanding of our dog’s needs.”
About: What sets me apart is the amount of attention and companionship I’m able to provide. Since I work remotely, pets aren’t left alone for long periods and can keep a consistent routine throughout the day. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and stress-free environment while treating every pet like family. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s extra playtime, maintaining routines, giving medication, or providing gentle care for shy or senior pets. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they always feel connected and reassured while away. I work remotely, allowing me to provide attentive care and companionship throughout the day. I offer flexible scheduling for daytime drop-ins, walks, and overnight care throughout the week. I care for pets by keeping them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and updates for owners while they’re away.
About: I love animals and animals love me! Animals have always been a part of my life since I was a kid. I grew up with and have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, ducks, birds, a frog, horses, and a Llama! I’m comfortable with any kind of critter. I currently have 3 dogs and 2 are sweet foster fails, a big old cat & one teenage kitty, and a rabbit at home (she lives outdoors). They all love other animals. I am an approved Foster parent for a couple Rescues, and with the Humane Society. I live in a big house with hardwood floors on nearly 2 acres of fully fenced property that’s close-in Vancouver right off of I-5. We have 1 1/2 acres dedicated as a Sniffspot Private Dog Park called “Nature in the City Private Dog Park”. Your pup(s) will get lots of outside off-leash playtime in an enriching, securely fenced area, if they want it! Your fur babies will be loved and well cared for, and feel at home away home. ❤️ *For dog walking, I can offer much more than just a leashed walk around the neighborhood. I can pick up your pup(s) and bring them to my private fully fenced dog park and let them run, explore, and sniff off-leash! I will do this for the same dog-walking rates. 😊 I work part-time outside my home, only one mile away, and I make my own schedule. I offer daycare and overnight boarding in a home environment, and dog walking-including complementary off-leash playtime in my private 1 1/2 acre dog park! We have a peaceful, loving home environment with my 3 friendly dogs, 2 cats, and my 14 year old son who loves animals and is very good with them. Our animals, and yours, are family and are treated that way! Your pup(s) will get lots of love and outside time on our securely fenced property, (if they want it).
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for chickens as well. I previously volunteered with the Humane Society for Southwest Washington (HSSW), where I worked primarily with large dogs. Through my volunteer work, I completed dog safety training and learned how to recognize and de-escalate potentially stressful situations to help keep both animals and people safe. I am also an Eagle Scout. For my Eagle Scout service project, I designed and built an outdoor shelter structure for HSSW that provides volunteers and staff with protection from the weather while supervising dogs in the play yard. Working closely with the shelter further strengthened my commitment to animal welfare and my passion for caring for pets. I am generally available after 3:00 PM on weekdays. I have classes during the mornings and early afternoons on some weekdays, but I do my best to keep my schedule flexible for pet care. Animals are always my top priority, and I am committed to making sure they receive the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes through my volunteer work at the Humane Society for Southwest Washington, where I regularly walked and worked with large dogs. I received dog safety training and learned how to recognize and de-escalate stressful situations to help keep both pets and people safe. I'm comfortable handling strong or energetic dogs and use proper leash-handling techniques to ensure walks are safe and enjoyable. Through both my volunteer experience and completing my Eagle Scout service project at the animal shelter, I have spent significant time working in environments with dogs present and understand how to remain calm, attentive, and respectful of each animal's needs. When caring for pets, I treat them as if they were my own by following their routines, respecting their boundaries, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Vivian was so great with our border collie. She has a past injury to her trachea so walking can be difficult for her, she was so patient with her and took her time. I definitely recommend her!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve cared for and trained pets for as long as I can remember. I’m comfortable with different ages, personalities, energy levels, and routines, including puppies and basic training. I’ve volunteered with animal shelters and Walk for the Animals for multiple years, and I also have experience house and pet sitting for multi-pet households. One included caring for a dog, a bunny, three adult cats, and four kittens at the same time! I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’ll care for yours with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. ❤️ I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to focus on your pets! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, playtime, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority. I follow your care instructions closely and take time to learn each pet’s personality, boundaries, and needs. Whether I’m in your home or out on a walk, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own.
“Our doggie loves his walks with Sarah! He recognizes her car, and actually watches for her when he thinks the time is right. She's punctual and friendly, and an obvious dog lover.”
About: I’m no animal expert, but I've had pets all my life, and put a lot of heart & effort into taking care of someone's pet just like I would my own any day! I work 4 hours in the evening, Mon-Thurs every week, but other than that, I have a lot of free time to take care of a family’s pet, & make sure their needs are met! I don’t have my dog with me anymore because my family moved to Idaho, but I have a dog with my dad; a black lab, Captain Jack (but we call him Cap for short) who I absolutely adore, and took care of when we were living together. Lots of walks, playtime, belly rubs, booty scratches, love & kisses, grooming, necessary discipline, feeding, etc. I also had my cat, Maybelle, at my mother's who is still with her because she kind of became the family cat. But I took care of her as she was originally my cat. I have had dogs & cats growing up so definitely familiar with both! For other people's pets, your pets, your rules. Your house, your rules. Anything you need me to do for your pet, I can do. If I haven't done something before, I will happily learn from you & do as you tell me.

Jeannie was kind and punctual! TRUSTWORTHY! Will hire every time we need our pups walked. Jeannie walked our dogs while we went on a trip. When we returned they were such happy pups. Jeannie kept them happy and no stress while we were gone. Note: Our Lab/Sheppard is a tricky pup to take on a walk but Jeannie had no problem! A million thank you’s to Jeannie!
Scotlyn has been absolutely wonderful!! They wear out our little guy on long walks and have gone above and beyond to make sure our other dog who has trouble walking still gets pets and backyard time! Scotlyn has a great attitude and it’s always a joy to read their report cards. We are so grateful to have found someone we can trust in our home and with our pups!
Shelbi has been great when getting to know me and my pup. She came over when I needed her unexpectedly to support my puppy when I had to work late. I’m beyond grateful for her help and enjoy knowing my puppy will get to spend time walking with her when I can’t.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Barberton is $26 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $33 per walk.

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 Barberton. 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 Barberton 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 Barberton. On Rover:
- 89% 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 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.
