“Mary helped us out for a few days while we were away and I’m so happy we found her! I really felt like our dog was safe with her and that’s such a relief to have when you’re not home. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I am a life long dog lover and owner. Mother to a 6 year old son and a 7 year old Pomeranian. I am home during the day so your fur baby will get plenty of walks and attention. I have pet sat for many friends and family and will treat your dog like my own. We go for morning walks every day at 9 am with several backyard breaks during the day. We also take a walk every evening after dinner. I have a fenced yard with one dog of my own. Couch and beds are open for all pets so they can rest where they are comfortable.
About: I've had pets since I was 6, ranging from an older Jack Russel Terrier, shy/abused German Shepherd/Rottweiler, and now a hyper Pitbull! I accept the personalities of all animals I currently work a full-time job. I have flexible lunch breaks and can contribute to care within the 11-1 PM schedule. I am available after 3:30 PM until 8 PM every weekday if given 2-3 days notice. On weekends, if I am not traveling, I can be flexible. I am an early riser!!! So if you need a 6 AM walk, I am SUPER happy to oblige. I'm available to take dogs on walks, supervise play time in a fenced in area, or adjust to whatever exercise your dog may need. I'm happy to feed and water them and provide care specific to their needs.
“Matt is very reliable and good with my dogs!! Matt has even gone the extra mile when I had asked him last minute to let my contractor in when I wasn't able to leave work! Glad to have found Matt when I moved to this area!”
“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: I have a lot of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds, including working at a barn where I help care for 9 horses and give riding lessons, along with experience around dogs and other pets. Being around a variety of animals has taught me how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs while staying attentive and responsible. What sets me apart is that I’m very comfortable reading animal behavior and staying calm in any situation. I’m confident with more energetic or nervous pets, and I’m also patient with older animals who may need a slower pace or extra care. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any small changes in behavior to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy. I’m reliable, quick to communicate, and I genuinely care about the animals I work with. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule and able to fit pet care into my daily routine. I work part-time and spend time at a barn, but I plan my days around the animals I’m responsible for. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends, and I’m good at sticking to a consistent routine that works best for your pet. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any specific care requests. I’m very aware of my surroundings, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets are always supervised and safe. I also keep you updated so you feel comfortable and know your pet is in good hands.
About: I've taken care of pups since I was a teenager and am continuing my love of them as my nursing career winds down and my husband is semi-retired. We treat them with dignity and respect just like they were our own. We are flexible as the work from home option allows the ability for us to spend quality time with your pet. We are available for boarding any day of the week including weekends and holidays. We have a nice sized yard and are close to multiple parks to take your pet on walks. Dogs are free to roam as if they were in their own home but can crate if desired.
About: I have been interacting with dogs of all breeds and ages since I was 8 and volunteer at local animal shelters as well as taking care of my own pets. I am great with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes! I am currently finishing my undergraduate degree at college and in my free time I love to help out walking dogs and taking care of them! I have a studio apartment with ample park access including a fenced in backyard. I have a 7 year old pit mix who is potty trained and loves other dogs! I also have a crate if needed :)
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for dogs, including feeding, walking, bathing, basic training, potty training, playtime, and maintaining daily routines. I have a flexible schedule and can work with your pet’s routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, sitting, and other services based on your needs and availability. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, maintain a clean environment, and make sure they feel safe and cared for.
“Heather did a great job making sure my Mom’s lab could get her much needed walks in a recent blizzard. She was on time and communicative in a very unpredictable situation. She was also great with Hershey who loved getting out into the snow with Heather. Thank s so much!”
“Kara is awesome! I used her dog walking services and she is a natural with the dogs. She goes above and beyond to make sure they're happy, after their walks she makes sure to clean them up and play with them. She's super helpful and it's a pleasure having her help with the dogs. I will ask for her help on a regular basis, couldn't be happier!”
About: Hi! I’m Simone. I’m a dog mama and I am available for frequent drop-in visits and boarding. I have years of experience caring for dogs and would love to help you out while making some extra money. Please let me know if I can help keep your dog company. Looking forward to meeting you and your dog! I have a very flexible work from home schedule so I’m available all day to be with your pet for as long as you need. I have a yard that’s not fenced but I live in a nice neighborhood with sidewalks and can take your pup on a long walk. I can also come to your home and give your pet long walks and potty breaks.
About: I grew up with two funny little dogs, Kiwi (a Peekapoo) and Tegan (a Bichon Frisé), whom my mom and I trained from puppies. I’m now the proud cat mom to an orange tabby named Ari! I’m calm, patient, loving, and consistent with animals. I also have experience caring for a senior dog who required daily medication by injection, and I’m happy to provide that same gentle, attentive care for your pets if needed. Whether your pet loves to play, explore, or simply curl up for cuddles, I’m happy to follow their lead and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. :) I have a flexible schedule, so your pet will receive plenty of attention and companionship! I have a flexible schedule and am often available for same-day bookings! Starting in August every Thursday, I will nanny for a wonderful five-month-old baby while also caring for her family’s two dogs and two cats. Outside of Thursdays, my schedule is very open. Because of my flexibility, your pets can receive the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I keep my availability up to date, communicate promptly, and strive to make every booking reliable, stress-free, and personalized to your pet’s needs. Every pet is unique, so I always begin by following the owner’s instructions and learning their routine. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks or a clean litter box, exercise and playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also pay close attention to their behavior to make sure they seem happy, comfortable, and healthy. If medications are needed, I’m happy to administer them as directed. Before I leave, I’ll make sure your pet is settled and I’ll send you an update with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Bellefonte is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Bellefonte. 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 Bellefonte 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 Bellefonte. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
