“Jack is great! My pitbull Jaws loves him! He has been walking him, and I can honestly say Jaws looks forward to seeing him weekly! I highly recommend Jack, if you are looking for a dog walker or any other service for your pet!”
“Mia has been such a great help during the day for our girl! She sends me timely updates and photos of their walks and I know she’s in good hands with Mia. I am very happy to have found her so that our pup gets a break during the work day! I highly recommend her!”
About: I have over 5 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including overnight stays. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, bathing, and following daily routines. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need medications or extra attention. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m also happy to provide photo and text updates for peace of mind. I work full-time but have a very flexible schedule and typically finish work around 3:30 PM. This allows me to visit pets throughout the day and provide consistent care, including walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m available for overnight stays and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while maintaining their normal routines. I’m happy to coordinate visit times based on your pet’s specific needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I primarily provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I always follow care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. Pets are supervised, secure, and cared for in a calm, clean environment at all times. While I do have a fenced yard available if needed, my main focus is attentive, responsible, and stress-free care in your home.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Bay City on Rover is $11.1 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Bay City. 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 Bay City.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
