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.

Cassandra was amazing! Reese our pup takes a little time to warm up but her presence with him, he felt comfortable with her right away! She is very knowledgeable and communicates very well. The pictures she took of reesey during the walk were the cutest ever! This was the first time we used her as our dog walker and we immediately booked her for more walks. Highly recommended! Use her!

About: My personal experience has consisted of hands-on settings caring for dogs through pet sitting, volunteering at an animal shelter, and helping raise and train my own dog from puppyhood. At the shelter, I regularly cared for and walked both dogs and cats, gaining knowledge and experience with a variety of temperaments and energy levels. I’ve also sat alongside a professional trainer with my own dog, watching taught me how to set appropriate boundaries, understand behavior, and use patience and consistency. In addition to basic training, I’ve taught fun commands like “roll over” and “paw.” Overall, I’m confident handling dogs with different personalities and needs. I prioritize being both patient and attentive while maintaining structure and safety. Your pet will be treated like family! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, exercise, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure each pet feels comfortable and loved. I’ll also send regular updates so you never feel out of the loop. I love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I always make sure they are always in a safe, supervised, and stress free environment. I pay close attention to them, follow any instructions you may provide, and keep walks and visits secure while aLeo enjoyable. I also believe communication is key, so I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away.

About: Dependable dog sitter. Love all types of dogs. Our dog is part of the family and yours will be too! Lexi is our 5 year old Labradoodle and she very friendly and loves to play with other dogs! My kids are grown so I have more time on my hands. We have never had to put Lexi in a kennel thanks to family and friends and want to help make sure other dogs can stay at home too! Looking to make dogs feel safe and happy is my goal. I love to take dogs on long walks and play ball with them. We have a large yard and lots of dog toys! Have helped dogs with invisible fence training and learning not to pull when on walks.

About: I've spent over 20 years caring for pets of my own and helping family and friends with theirs. I combine a genuine love of animals with the responsibility and reliability gained from a successful professional career, giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I am available seven days a week for daytime dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable, attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, routines, and household rules. I take time to build trust with each pet, paying attention to their personality and needs. I maintain a clean, safe environment, keep pets securely leashed during walks, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: Welcome to Aaron’s Boarding, a 4 bedroom ranch house on an acre of land that includes a private fenced in yard for lots of activities and play. We are pleased to announce that we now offer dog walking and hourly yard rental through SniffSpot, Melanie’s Play yard. My team and I have taken care of over 100 foster and boarder dogs including the SCPA and training service dogs. We’ve cared for moms with litters of 10 puppies, young adult, adult, senior, special needs including diabetes and all types of physical disabilities. We have been boarding dogs since April 2020. We are able to take dogs up to 65 pounds and any dogs over 65 pounds will be considered if trained well, Rover just doesn’t have a setting to say that. Most of our clients choose us because we offer private boarding for their dog only. However, our business has grown, and we now accept a maximum of 3 dogs. The dogs can either come from the same home or they are friends or we sometimes negotiate a cross board through a meet and greet. We have a highly desirable environment due to not having any dogs, cats, or small children. We provide bowls and crates. Bring dog beds, food, treats, bones and toys. We do not provide those. We are a team of 3 with 24 hour service. IMPORTANT!!! We only board dogs. Dogs must be crate trained. We only accept dogs that sleep in a crate at night. No exceptions. We only take dogs that are microchipped and spayed/neutered. All new dogs are required to have a meet and greet before being accepted for boarding. Any potential cross boarding is approved through a meet and greet between families. We look forward to keeping your furry friends safe while you are away. We only take puppies older than 16 weeks and they must be house trained, crate trained, don’t jump or bite and sleep through the night. Don’t forget to use my promo code if this is your first time using Rover to save $20 on your first booking https://www.rover.com/sit/aaronp13595 Aaron's boarding is a full time family run business with a total of 3 trained adults. We are 3 trained adults with years of experience. Our home is safe for dogs, they have full run of the house and are walked on a leash on our property as well as in the neighborhood. We are happy to take car rides, and they would get plenty of snuggles and playtime. I have loved dogs my whole life and enjoy looking after them and their different personalities, I look forward to meeting with you and your dogs. Please Note: We are unable to board medium to high shedding dogs such as German Shepherds, Huskies, Akitas and similar breed. If they are a mixed breed please contact me for additional information.

Drew has been a wonderful caregiver for Lilly. He is incredibly gentle, patient, and caring, and she absolutely loves him. He has been helping care for her since the day she came home to me, and I have always trusted him completely with her well-being. Drew also helped care for my previous dog, Addison, who has since passed away, and he showed the same compassion, kindness, and dedication with her. It’s clear that he genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were his own. He is reliable, responsible, and attentive, and I always have peace of mind knowing Lilly is in his care. I would recommend Drew to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter or dog walker.

She is someone both people and pets feel totally comfortable around. Joy was communicative, flexible, responsive, kind, and completely reliable. And she clearly loves dogs!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Barkley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Barkley on Rover is $27.75 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 8,776 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Barkley. 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 Barkley. 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 Barkley.

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 Barkley. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
