“Stacey is an awesome dog walker and she really cares about the dogs she walks. She has great availability even on short notice and during the work week. I would definitely recommend having her to take care of your best friends!! 🦮🐕🦺🦴 ❤️❤️❤️”
“If you are looking for an experienced, considerate, and dedicated dog walker/sitter, then you've found your match! Gregory has provided dog walks and overnight care for our 60lb hound mix multiple times over the last few months and we couldn't be happier with the care he provides. He is incredibly communicative, provides very detailed updates after every walk (with plenty of pictures included), and has shown the utmost dedication to understanding our dog Izzy and her specific behavioral needs. We have worked with many positive reinforcement trainers in the past to address our pups over-excitability and leash reactivity and Gregory using much of the same language as these dog trainers when discussing strategies he used on his walks with Izzy to help redirect and keep her focused and safe. Our pup is very scent driven on walks which can require a lot of patience and steady redirection, and we are so grateful for how kind and gentle Gregory is when handling Izzy. We've only had one overnight experience with Gregory so far and he took great care of our home and left the house spotless! He also ensured us that he only books one overnight stay at a time to avoid any conflicts in schedule and make sure our dog has company throughout the night and to keep her safe in the event of an emergency. All that being said, you will have no regrets choosing with work with Gregory and we feel very fortunate to have found him!”
“Matthew has been awesome with my pups! He walks them every weekday like clockwork, and I never have to worry because he’s DEPENDABLE. The highlight of my workday is getting THE BEST PICS he sends—they always brighten my day. Thank you for taking such great care of my babies, Matthew. We really appreciate everything you do!”
“Britney was super friendly and willing to help straight from the beginning. I really appreciated that she was able to accommodate me asking her for help in such a short time frame! She was a pleasure to have as my rover walker and I will be using her again soon! :)”
“This is the second time Morgan has taken care of my golden retriever pup. She always on time and adjusts her walks/ playtime according to my pups mood. I would highly recommend her if your fur baby needs walking, playing or just hanging out 🥰!! Thanks Morgan”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Hoochoo! It was clear that you genuinely cared for him, and I really appreciated the updates and photos during the walk. Hoochoo came back happy and well cared for, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would absolutely book with you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. Thank you again! 🙂”
“Brooke has been amazing! She’s always on time and updates me just the right amount. We’ve been working with a trainer and she’s very receptive to our new walking routine. So lucky to have found Brooke!”
About: I have always had a soft spot for puppies to seniors, all breeds of pooches. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, car rides to drive around, a special treat for a pup cup and playing fetch in the yard. I am comfortable with medications, baths/grooming, accidents and the endless dog kisses. I have 2 dogs myself (Rottweiler, and a King Charles Cavalier) who are very rambunctious and always keep me on my toes. I am currently available during the week, weekends and holidays. I am home and available for drop ins, long visits, dog-walks, boarding/overnight visits at your home. I do have a very large fenced in yard for dogs to play in. Multiple crate sizes for dogs and cats along with carriers. For cats- I have multiple cat trees in my home. I do have areas to seperate pets if needed in my 4 story home. Multiple food bowls, blankets and beds to keep everyone happy.
“Joey is always happy when Gabrielle comes by. She puts about a mile on him each visit, and he's gotten a lot perkier. I can't recommend Gabrielle and Rover more.”
“Morgan was amazing taking care of our pets while we were away. She took so many pictures and sent us updates daily! Would definitely use her again in the future!”
“Sophia was great with my dog. He loves being out and gathering smells (he’s a hound). She took him on a long walk to his favorite smelling spots and wore him out which was great since I had to leave him home alone for an extended period that day. I highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Amy is so sweet and friendly! She was available pretty quickly for a meet and greet, and my dog immediately warmed up to her! I appreciated her flexibility with walking my dog and sending me detailed reports with pictures. I will definitely rebook Amy for any future needs!”
“Kayleigh was very flexible and did an amazing job of getting to know my dog and providing her with a great experience. She was very responsive to me and attentive to my dog’s needs. Highly recommend!”
About: I've taken care of pets of all kinds since I was very young, from birds to cats and lizards to dogs, being tasked to walk, care for, feed, and just generally oversee. I am also a current Pre-veterinarian undergrad, and am confident in my taught abilities to both handle and treat animals. I love working with any and all animals, and am absolutely thrilled to be working with your furry friends! I'm a fresh animal science graduate from the University of Delaware, and have a pretty flexible schedule. Inquire with what you need, and I'll let you know if the times align! I currently have a very eccentric 3 year old, and as such have experimented a lot in the safest possible options for your pets! I am super confident I can provide a safe environment where trust can be built and your pet is safe.

Matthew has been awesome with my pups! He walks them every weekday like clockwork, and I never have to worry because he’s DEPENDABLE.

Briana has been an absolute lifesaver! I booked her on very short notice when a work trip came up unexpectedly, and she was incredibly accommodating and easy to coordinate with. My dog, Phoebe, is quite shy and reactive, which can be challenging for anyone new, but Briana handled her with so much patience, care, and understanding. Knowing Phoebe was in such capable and reliable hands gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely be using Briana again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!
We’ve had such wonderful experiences with Stacey! Our dog has stayed overnight with her in the past, and she’s also come by to take her for a walk and feed. Stacey always gives the best updates, which gives us so much peace of mind, and it’s clear how much she truly cares. She takes amazing care of our baby every single time. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust completely — highly recommend! 🐾✨
Jenny has been unbelievably kind and patient with my shy rescue Jesse. He is responding quickly to her positive energy, learning to be friends and allow her to walk him. She has brought her husband Anthony and little daschund so they can walk together, a beautiful healing experience for my unsocialized, scared dog. They are gems and we are so lucky to have we found them!!
Melissa is such a caring and responsible dogwalker! She really takes the time to care for our dog, Kyrie, and you can tell because our dog immediately took to her. Melissa’s also a great communicator and has been proactive about letting me know if there’s any issues or any schedule changes. I highly recommend Melissa :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Blackwood on Rover is $24.42 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 8,472 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Blackwood. 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 Blackwood. 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 Blackwood.

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 Blackwood. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
