About: I currently work at a dog facility where we offer daycare and boarding, which has given me hands-on experience caring for many different breeds, personalities, and sizes of dogs. I also have two dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable with energetic dogs and enjoy taking them on walks and keeping them active. I genuinely love meeting new dogs and getting to know their individual personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me! I currently work part-time at a dog facility and have school on some Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I’m unavailable those days. I’m available for dog walks on other weekdays and weekends, depending on my work schedule. I’ll always do my best to be flexible and find a time that works for you and your pup! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience taking care of dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and personalities through my job at a dog facility. During walks, I’ll follow your instructions, stay attentive to your dog, and make sure they have a safe and enjoyable experience.

I currently have my own, a 3-year-old Cavapoo named Berlioz who I adore. I look forward to hopefully meeting your furry friend! My schedule is pretty flexible right now. I am working part-time, so I can be available whenever needed. I prefer weekdays, but am willing to do weekends. Timing is flexible as well :) I have a fenced-in yard, and two dogs at the house. They are both under 20 pounds, but friendly. I can also keep dogs separated if needed.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so taking care of animals has always been a normal part of my life. I’ve cared for my cat, Lincoln, for the past six or seven years, especially when my parents are away. I genuinely love being around animals and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I believe the way we treat animals says a lot about us, and I take that responsibility seriously. I also have experience caring for an older dog who needs extra attention and frequent bathroom breaks. I understand senior dogs can need a little more patience, cleanup, and care throughout the day. I’m comfortable with the extra work that comes with caring for an older pet, and I know how important it is to make sure they stay comfortable, clean, and loved. I’d love for every pet in my care to feel safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m happy to work pet care into my routine and make sure pets get the attention they need. I’m comfortable helping with regular feeding, walks, playtime, and checking in on pets while their owners are away. And I definitely understand how important consistency is for animals, especially older dogs so I’d do my best to stick to their usual schedules and follow any instructions their owners provide. I would treat them like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’d follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, and playtime, while making sure they always have fresh water and a clean space. I’m also comfortable with the extra care older dogs may need. I’d respect the owner’s home, follow any instructions they leave, and keep them updated so they can feel at ease knowing their pets are in good hands.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. I’m a lifelong animal lover with 37 years of experience owning cats, and my family currently has three cats of our own. I love dogs, cats, snakes, and all kinds of reptiles! I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and compassionate. I understand that every animal has its own unique personality, needs, and quirks. I enjoy getting to know each pet and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’m happy to give them the attention they need. I know how important it is to trust someone with your beloved pets. I’ll treat your animals with the same care and affection I give my own, follow their usual routines, and respect their individual needs. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind and make sure their pets feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while their favorite people are away. Every animal deserves kindness, patience, and love! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around the needs of the pets in my care. I can coordinate visits, drop-ins, and dog walks with pet parents to help maintain their pets’ regular routines. I understand how important consistency is for animals, whether that means morning visits, afternoon walks, mealtimes, or evening check-ins. I do my best to be dependable, communicate clearly, and give each pet my full attention during our time together. My flexible routine allows me to make caring for your pets a priority while helping them feel comfortable, safe, and loved when you can’t be there. Safety, trust, and your pet’s comfort are always my priorities. I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your beloved animals requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s usual routine, and make sure food, water, litter boxes, and living areas are kept clean and comfortable. I’m careful about doors, gates, leashes, and anything that could pose a safety risk. I also respect your home and your privacy. During walks and visits, I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and surroundings to help keep them safe. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. As a lifelong animal lover with decades of experience caring for cats and a love for dogs and reptiles, I understand that every animal has different needs. I approach each pet with patience, kindness, and respect, and I always strive to make them feel secure and cared for. Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I would want for my own.

I currently have a 6 year old furry dog baby of my own, Violet, a Basenji/Terrier mix, so I fully understand the daily needs, routines, and personalities that come with pet ownership. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly cared for neighbors and family members’ dogs and cats - providing feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and always aim to make pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I work full-time from home, which allows me the flexibility to take breaks throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and check-ins. This means your pet will receive consistent, reliable care without long gaps in attention. I’m available during weekdays with flexible daytime scheduling, as well as weekends. I do my best to accommodate routines so your pet’s schedule stays as normal and stress-free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and follow all instructions closely to ensure your pet stays in a familiar, secure environment. I’m attentive to details like feeding routines, leash safety, and making sure doors and gates are secure at all times. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting my approach to match their personality. You can expect dependable care, clear communication, and regular updates with photos so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. :)

FAQs for Dog Walking - Boulder Hill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Boulder Hill is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 3,612 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Boulder Hill. 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 Boulder Hill. 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 Boulder Hill 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 Boulder Hill. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 91% 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.
