Erin was amazing! She was able to accommodate my last-minute booking request, arrived promptly, and was incredibly kind and professional throughout the process. Diesel seemed to really enjoy his walk, and I appreciated the peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!

OMG I absolutely LOVED Allison so much!! She was so professional and sweet! She checked in with me about everything my fur baby needed prior to her visits with him to make sure she had all the information necessary. She also provided me with a report card after every walk including lots of pictures of my boy having the time of his life! He looked so happy when she walked him. I will 100% be using her again! We love Allison!! 🥰❤️

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for cats and dogs with a variety of needs, especially elderly and those on medications. I used to manage a horse farm, and have been a lifelong equestrian. I have a service pup of my own, as well as a lovely ragdoll cat, and previously owned a rescue pittie! I am emergency first aid certified for small animals and was an ICU vet tech. Comfortable with all breeds. I am able to fit in morning and evening care during the week and am flexible on the weekends. Wednesday afternoons are also open at this time! I am responsible and respectful of your space. I live an apartment so can not host at the moment. I will always send pictures and leave things as is!

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 17 and have cared for 20+ dogs for family and family friends. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, administering oral medications, overnight stays, long-term house sitting, and taking dogs to appointments when needed. I also spend a lot of time at home during house sits because I know most dogs are happiest when they have company. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always do my best to keep them happy, comfortable, and sticking to their normal routine while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work mornings and usually get off around 1 PM, so I’m available most afternoons and evenings for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets. I also offer overnight stays and make it a priority to spend plenty of time at home, so your pets get lots of attention and companionship while you’re away. I know every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to stick to it so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, or bedtime routines.

About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve grown up around animals and truly believe they are family, not just pets. I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I’ve cared for pets with all kinds of personalities and at different stages of life, including my senior dog Jacob (11). Having an older dog has taught me to be patient, notice the little things, and make sure pets are comfortable and cared for as they get older. I’ve also worked with my dog Atlas, who has had some behavioral challenges. Helping him over the years has taught me that every animal is different and that trust, consistency, and patience go a long way. I enjoy taking the time to understand each pet and what helps them feel safe and happy. Since I have a multi-pet household with dogs, cats, and birds, I’m comfortable with different routines and different types of care. I know every pet has their own personality, habits, and needs. The biggest thing that sets me apart is that I truly care about the animals I look after. I don’t just show up to feed them—I want to build a connection with them, make them feel comfortable, and give them the same care and love I would want someone to give my own pets. Pet care is a part of my everyday routine. Every day, I feed my three dogs, two cats, and two parakeets, make sure they always have fresh water, and spend time playing with and caring for them. My dogs get regular walks and outdoor time, and I love taking them on hikes whenever I can. My cats get plenty of attention, playtime, and enrichment, and I make sure their litter boxes stay clean. I also care for my parakeets by cleaning their cage, refreshing their food and water, and giving them time to interact and explore. Because caring for animals is already part of my daily life, adding your pet to my routine feels. I’ll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and care that I give my own pets. I care for every pet like they are my own because I truly believe pets are family. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I love taking the time to understand what makes each one feel safe and happy. At home, I care for my three dogs, Jacob (11), Luna (7), and Atlas (8), my two cats, Stinky (5) and Kiwi (6), and my two parakeets, Suki and Dewy. My dogs get lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and outdoor adventures like walks and hikes. Luna has had some behavioral challenges, which has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and understanding that every animal learns and grows at their own pace. Seeing how much she has improved over the years has shown me how important love and patience are when caring for pets. My cats, Stinky and Kiwi, have completely different personalities, and that’s one of the things I love most about cats. I enjoy playing with them, keeping them entertained, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure they have a comfortable and happy environment. I also have experience caring for my parakeets, Suki and Dewy. I’m comfortable with feeding them, cleaning their cage, changing their water, and making sure they get attention and enrichment. While I haven’t owned larger birds, I’m always willing to learn and make sure I understand each pet’s needs. When caring for your pets in your home, I’ll respect their routine and follow your instructions closely. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, and to give them the same care and attention I give my own pets because I know how much they mean to your family.

About: I have had a dog for as long as I can remember. As a child she was my best friend. as an adult I understood how much value and love they would bring for my children while teaching them love responsibly and compassion! I know how hard it was to travel and the stress on both the human and the fur baby, so my hope is to relieve that for both parties. I currently travel the world on a sailboat so I love reconnecting with pets when I come back to visited for awhile! I retired a year ago my schedule is completely open. I am able to schedule all my activities around what works the best for your furry friends I am not currently able to care for animals in my home due to an aging cat that is unable emotionally to share her space.

Jeannie is amazing! Our puppy isn’t used to being alone all day so we were worried that she wouldn’t adjust well to our new work schedule - it’s clear that having Jeannie stop by has eased the transition for our dog & now she looks forward to it! Our dog is so much more calm when we get home. Jeannie is super reliable and communicative. We feel lucky to have her as our Rover :)

About: Being extremely attached to my own dog and cats, I understand how hard it is to be away from them! You can rest easy, I will care for your animals as if they were my own. Big and small, cat and dog, I love them all! Please note: I only accept dogs in my home for boarding that have been around cats and are known to be cat-friendly. I work a flexible schedule, and come check on your pets morning, evening and possibly also mid-day. Let me know what you need and I will make it work. I can either come to your house to let your pet stay in his/her own environment or if they come to my house to stay, they will join my menagerie for their visit. I have kitties, so they must be cat-friendly. At my house, the day starts with a potty break in my fenced yard, followed by a 20-minute walk either in the morning or at lunch time. There is a second walk of a at least 20-minutes after work around 7 and potty breaks, pets and treats on my work breaks. There are pet beds all over the house, kitties to play with and my dog Sadie (a mix, around 50lbs). My pets range at night but guest pets have to be crated at bedtime. I can put the crate in my bedroom if it will make your pet more comfortable.

About: I have been taking care of family and friends pets since I was 13. I focus on building a personal connection with every dog, offering customized care that fits their needs and individual personalities. I also provide constant updates, so you never miss a wagging tail or happy moment. To me your dog isn’t just a pet, they’re family. I am currently a part-time Disney travel agent, and full-time dog mom. I have fairly open availability and flexibility to fit you and your pet’s needs. Accepting Drop-In and Walk requests between the hours of 9:30am-4pm When pets stay in my home, they’re treated just like family! I create a cozy, pet-friendly space full of room to play or relax. I live on the first floor of my apartment complex, so pets with mobility issues won’t have any issues. I’ll also stick to your pet’s routine - feeding, walks, and cuddle time - so that they feel as comfortable as possible. Plus I’ll be sure to give them plenty of attention and affection ensuring they have a fun and safe stay.

Dylan was so kind and patient with my Petra! She can be shy at first but Dylan brought her right out of her shell! I’m recovering from an ankle surgery so I can’t take her on the walks she used to love but after she came back from her walk with Dylan Pet Pet was more relaxed than she had been in over a week! She was finally able to get all that stored energy out! Dylan brought a portable water bottle and bowl to keep her hydrated during this intense heat too! I highly recommend him as a trustworthy and caring dog walker!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Blands

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Blands on Rover is $18.19 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 4,992 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Blands. 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 Blands. 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 Blands.

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 Blands. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 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.
