“Vivian is exactly the kind of pet sitter you hope to find! What I love most is how attentive her notes are, she noticed that my dog walks gracefully at a relaxed pace and described her as a calm, easygoing girl, which tells me she’s really paying attention to my dog’s personality and not just going through the motions. She wiped her paws after the walk, made sure the door was locked, and communicated everything clearly. My pup went straight to her bed for a nap after, the sign of a great walk! I feel completely at ease leaving my dog in Vivian’s hands. Highly recommend her!”

About: I am new to rover. I decided to join because of my love for dogs and needing profit while in school. I would love to do anything needed with and/for your dog. Being a pet parent myself, I understand the importance of tailoring needs to each dog. I adopted my first dog when I was 10 and I adopted my second puppy, Nix, at 12 weeks in July 2025. He knows sit, stay, retrieve, wait for food, shake, high five, fetch, find, etc. He is crate trained and can be left alone for up to 6 hours. He can go on stress free walks with his gentle lead & e collar while performing heal, wait, and go. I have experience watching & walking family and friends dogs-house sitting out of state. I have experience walking dogs and their behavior on walks as I take Nix five miles every other day. I am currently between jobs and am soon to be going back to school part-time, so I have plenty of time to entertain your pets! I have a fenced mulched area in the front of my house- no yard- but plenty of contained space to be let out to potty…this is what I do with my pup. I take my pup on a five mile walk daily and am very active to do whatever distance/time walk.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I travel frequently, so having my own pet has been hard to say yes to. But my friends semi-regularly ask me to stay at their houses to watch their animals for them, often times a week or more. I work remotely with little personal commitments in life, so it makes it easy for me to watch animals while working. When it fits with my schedule, I find enjoyment in watching animals. I'm happy to cater to your pets needs as long as you give me a schedule to follow. I'm also willing to send pictures or have a video chat with you so that you know your pets are safe and happy!

About: You know that relaxed feeling when you're at work, away for a weekend, or traveling for a week, knowing everything at home — especially your furry friends — is being well cared for? That's the kind of peace of mind I strive to provide! I've had cats my entire life and currently have a sweet 12-year-old cat and a playful 2-year-old pup of my own! After high school, I became a trusted house sitter for two loyal clients, and I've continued caring for friends' and family's pets whenever I can. Now, I'm excited to get back into pet sitting and share that love with even more furry friends! I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I love spoiling pets with extra attention, playtime, cuddles, and all the little things that make them happy. Every pet has their own personality and needs, and I'm happy to go the extra mile, whether that means sticking to their routine, giving shy pets space, or offering extra snuggles. I'll treat your furry family like my own! I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur-children with someone new, and my goal is to make that experience as worry-free as possible. You can feel confident knowing your furry family members are being cared for, loved on, and spoiled while you're away! Whether you need a helping hand during a busy afternoon, someone to check in on your pets, or a trusted sitter while you're traveling, I'd love to help make life a little easier for you and a little more enjoyable for your pets. Look no further — Halley is here! 🐶🐱💕 I can't wait to meet you and your furry family! I'm a full-time pet sitter, sourdough enthusiast, and crochet student, which means my days are flexible and centered around giving your furry friends the care and attention they deserve! 🐾❤️ Whether it's playtime, walks, potty breaks, mealtimes, or simply some extra cuddles and company throughout the day, I'm happy to work with you to find a routine that fits your pets' needs. I have a fenced-in backyard for playtime, a trailhead just two blocks away for walks, and a crate and playpen available if needed! Our Mini Aussie was crate-trained until age two, so I'm happy to offer our crate when appropriate. Whether in my home or yours, I'll follow your pet's routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Your pet's safety is my number one priority, and if I'm ever unsure about something, I'll never hesitate to reach out and ask. I believe in communicating with pet parents rather than making assumptions, because every pet is unique and you know them best!

About: “Dog fever” doesn’t even begin to cover it — my girlfriend and I are counting down the days until we can bring home a new puppy. I’m the kind of person who can’t pass a dog on the street without stopping to say hello, so you can imagine how excited I get around animals. I’m a private contractor working remotely with a very flexible schedule. I can shift my day to day schedule and adapt to most needs you may have. I am a very attentive person with patience and much affection. I hope to keep your pets routine consistent & stress-free with exercise, playtime, or just extra attention.

About: 13+ years of animal care! I have had many pets of my own growing up and currently have a dog named Ayza, so I am no stranger to animal care and I love all types of animals. I have done lots of pet and house sitting over the years so I've also learned to make friends with animals quickly and in all different types of settings. I have trained 3 puppies and given care to 2 elderly dogs who both required special care including medications. I love fostering cats/kittens when I am able, my latest foster was a pair of kittens only weeks old who had a rough respiratory infection at the time, they are both healthy and with a loving home together now! Working on a farm with animals I learned how to manage emergency situations as they arose, things like wounds, sickness, and other aliments and have become comfortable managing any challenging situations that may arise. I work remotely and set my own hours, meaning I have plenty of time and attention to give to your pets! I can fit just about any pet care requirements you have into my schedule. I am only offering client in-home care at this time. I love caring for pets in their own environment where they feel comfortable to express their full personalities. I have homes in both Colorado Springs and Fort Collins where I spend most of my time but I also travel the country in my converted camper van! I do prefer stays where my dog is able to join but can be flexible so just let me know your needs.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life (every second of my life) and have been pet sitting for family & friends since I was 16. Currently hosting daycare for 1 dog weekly, drop-in visits for another dog weekly, and tons of extra fur buddies on an as-needed basis. Currently working a flexible, remote schedule & can do in-home visits, daycare, or overnight boarding or even just walks as needed! I can help with training if needed on basic commands! My husband and I have 2 dogs, a beagle mix & husky, and LOVE dogs! Our dream is to open a pet boarding facility one day. Until then, we are happy to assist you in taking care of your furry friends as needed! As a WFH employee, I have a very flexible schedule and can fit drop-in visits, daycare, & walks into my daily schedule to help you and your furry friend! I also have 2 dogs of my own so your dog can have some play mates during daycare. I live in a dog-friendly complex and can watch one dog at a time at my place or do drop in visits at your home on a schedule that works for everyone! Happy to provide indoor play-time, walks, or outdoor playtime if you have a backyard or if you’re fine with us taking them to the dog park with our dogs!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and babysitting since I was 18 years old, which has given me years of hands-on experience with responsibility, patience, and attentive care. Being around pets for so long has made me very comfortable with different breeds, temperaments, and needs. I treat every dog like family — making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and care. I’m available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship, with only brief absences for errands. I’m lucky to have a huge backyard, so pups staying with me get lots of outdoor playtime! Whether they love to run, explore, or just sunbathe, there’s plenty of safe space for them to enjoy.

Cassie has been an incredible dog walker for my service dog, Reina, on Mondays and Fridays. Her reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for animals have given me complete peace of mind knowing Reina was in such caring hands. Over the time she worked with us, Cassie built a wonderful bond with Reina and always went above and beyond to ensure she was happy, safe, and well cared for. Her kindness, patience, and dedication never went unnoticed. Reina and I are truly saddened to see Cassie leave, but we are so grateful for everything she has done for us. While we will miss her tremendously, we wish her nothing but success, happiness, and exciting new adventures in this next chapter of her life. Thank you, Cassie, for your outstanding care, friendship, and commitment. You have made a lasting impact on both of us, and we will always be grateful. ❤️🐾

FAQs for Dog Walking - Black Forest

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Black Forest is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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.

As of November 2026, there are 2,650 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Black Forest. 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 Black Forest. 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 Black Forest 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 Black Forest. 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 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.
