“My first time using Rover, and I could not have asked for a better experience and better match! Jaime G. did a tremendous job - travelling out of country and hiring her to give my girl Gigi 30-minute walks allowed me to feel at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. Jaime was very reliable, friendly, and always provided detailed report cards and photos for each walk she gave my dog. Gigi loved her, and whenever I need a dog walker in the future, I know Gigi will be in good hands with Jaime! Thank you Jaime for being a great dog walker, for sending me such awesome and detailed report cards with the cutest photos of my dog, and for responding to all my messages and answering all my questions promptly. I highly recommend Jaime for anyone needing dog walking or pet sitting services, and Gigi says thanks to Jaime for giving her so much affection and attention, and for making her walks enjoyable and fun! :)”

“This was my first time to use Rover and from the very beginning I was so happy with Priscilla and Mike. Fiona took to Mike right away and seemed to want to be his bestie! I've now found my dog sitter for any future trips or needs. Both are such nice people and help rescue dogs in need. I wish them success and will definitely use them again.”

About: Although I have no official skills and training...yet, but I grew up caring for animals. For 18 years I lived on a small farm in Michigan where we raised chickens, rabbits, goats, alpacas, dogs, and cats. These animals were my beloved pets and would get shown at the county fair every summer. Since moving away I have accumulated three cats of my own. As I continue to figure things out and gain experience I can promise that all pets under my care will be well cared for, loved, and that all owners will receive top notch communication. I have just separated from the Navy and am unable to get another job due to some traveling I have planned over the next couple months. I am free all day pretty much any day! I do not offer sitting or boarding in my home due to my cats not appreciating outsiders, but I am more than happy to go to your house and do whatever is needed!

About: Having 4+ years of volunteering at my animal shelter has given me the experience to handle various kinds of dogs and their personality traits. I primarily bring them out in the play yards to get their daily exercise so to do this outside the shelter would be like my ideal day of never ending fun. On my free-time I like to research dog breeds and learn anything dog-related. I also love to run my dog blog on instagram. I would like to commit at least 3 days of full-time availability. Nighttime hours (6-11PM) is probably my preferred time because I'm almost always available then. Dogs deserve the exercise and love they need while their owners are away and I'll do my best to make make sure they get it. My house-sitting routine is set to ensure your pet receives consistent, attentive care throughout the day. On weekdays, I provide morning care before heading to work (which begins at 8:00 AM in Chula Vista). Depending on my route, I’m typically available again between 2:00 PM and latest 5:00 PM. After work, I return to your pup to spend a few hours feeding, caring for, and giving your pet plenty of attention. I then briefly check in on my own pets before coming back to your home for the evening and overnight care. On weekends, I have greater flexibility. I am available every Saturday and every other Sunday, allowing me to dedicate even more time and attention to your pet’s needs. Caring for your pet is both a joy and a responsibility I take seriously. While you’re away, they’ll be treated like one of my own—with lots of love, attention, and care. I like to follow a detailed care sheet outlining your pet’s usual routine so I can mirror it as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable and at ease in your absence. You can also expect plenty of adorable updates, and I’m always available if you or I have any questions along the way.

About: Hi! I’m Briana, a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to Duke and Lola. Duke is my sweet, playful adult pup, and Lola is the newest addition to our family—a lovable Labrador puppy! Having a puppy again has given me plenty of recent, hands-on experience with potty breaks, puppy energy, routines, playtime, and lots of patience. 🐾 I know how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so my goal is to make both you and your pup feel completely comfortable. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family—with lots of love, attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of updates and photos for you along the way. ❤️ With both an adult dog and a puppy at home, our house is definitely dog-friendly! I’m happy to follow your pup’s normal routine, whether they’re high-energy and ready to play, love long walks, or would rather curl up next to me for a nap. Most importantly, I want you to enjoy your time away knowing your pup is safe, loved, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. My goal is for them to have such a great time that they’re excited to come back! I work remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with the pups in my care throughout the day. I’m available during the week, on weekends, and on holidays, and I’m happy to work with your dog’s normal schedule. Since I have two dogs of my own, Duke and my Labrador puppy Lola, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention are already part of my everyday routine! 🐾 I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. ❤️ I have two friendly dogs, Duke and Lola, who love having furry friends around. I’ll follow your pup’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, sleeping arrangements, medications, and any special instructions. I also know how hard it can be to leave your pup with someone else, so you can expect plenty of photos and updates while they’re with me!

About: I have had pets for 17 years and so far I have 2 cats and 5 very friendly dogs. I know every behavior and jests at them or if they feel sick I am at home full time. The only time I go out is to go to the market and the occasional medical appointment. The rest of the time I will be caring for and raising your little loved one. My house has a secure fence, a yard to run around in. They will have fun meeting new friends. When they get tired they will sleep in a bed or blanket if they want.

About: Animals are and will for ever be part of my life, they are a huge source of happiness for me, even if I’m not their owner and only have them for a few minutes, I will love them and respect them as if they where my own. I’ve taken care of many dogs, cats, and other different pets and have the experience needed for knowing what they want and how to treat them. I am available to take care of your pets any day of the week even weekends! This mostly during breaks, I am a college student so during school semesters the availability can change depending on my classes, but I’ll usually change that in advance on the app. I also can do nights, or we can arrange something that will work for both sides, I’m very open to talk and help in any way possible! Most services are offered, I can walk them, feed them, spend time with them and pet them of course! I can stay nights, the day or even a few hours or minutes at your place and they are also welcome to my home any time. Safety is important on both sides, if pets are aggressive or bite please let me know in advance, if they have conditions or medical issues please let me know, I’ll take care of them with all the safety needed and provide them with a loving, caring and safe environment.

About: The Kind of Care I'd Want for My Own Pup/Kitty Dogs have been a part of my life for over 20+ years, and caring for them has always come naturally. I grew up with cats and dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets as well as sitting and walking dogs for friends and family. I currently have a 6-year-old Belgian Malinois named Nova, so I'm very familiar with high-energy breeds that need both physical exercise and mental stimulation. We enjoy hiking, long walks, trips to the park, and staying active together. Whether your pup/kitty loves adventure or prefers a slower pace, I'll tailor their care to fit their personality and routine. I understand that every pup/kitty is unique, and I treat each one with the same patience, attention, and affection I give Nova. My goal is simple: to provide the kind of care I'd want for my own pup/kitty, safe, reliable, loving, and full of fun. I'll make sure you and your pup/kitty feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away, giving you complete peace of mind. I'm currently furthering my education, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pup/kitty. I'm available weekends and weekdays for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks in the comfort of your home. Just message me to arrange! I'll treat your pup/kitty with the same love, attention, and care I give my own. When caring for your pup/kitty in your home, my priority is making sure you and your pup/kitty feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by maintaining their normal routine. I'll follow all of your care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special preferences or restrictions. I always treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping it clean, secure, and leaving it just as I found it. I'll also provide lots of updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup/kittie is happy and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet by providing dependable, attentive, and loving care every visit.

Jessica has been an amazing dog walker for our puppy. She is incredibly patient, reliable, and genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. From day one, she took the time to build trust with our puppy and always makes sure she gets the exercise, attention, and care she needs. One of the best signs of how wonderful Jessica is, is how excited our puppy gets when it's time for her weekly walk with her. It's clear that she absolutely adores her! Knowing that our puppy is in such caring and capable hands gives us great peace of mind. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and compassionate dog walker.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Boal

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Boal on Rover is $19 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per walk. 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 October 2026, there are 8,773 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Boal. 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 Boal. 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 Boal 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 Boal. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
