“Appreciate Nicole's care and attention for my pup Cassie on their walk. Cassie likes to take her time, stopping to sniff spots or lay down, so I booked an hour walk. Nicole made sure she got the full walk in so Cassie could enjoy her usual exercise and mental stimulation.”
“Ziasia did a great job and most importantly our pup looked forward to each walk with her…even the cats seem to take a liking to her. She took great care of our dog and even took some extra time to play with the cats and sent pictures of our fur kids every time.”
About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities my whole life. I’m especially comfortable with large, energetic dogs and have experience handling dogs with different temperaments and needs. I previously worked at a dog kennel, where I gained hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs, keeping them active, and making sure they were safe and comfortable. I’m confident with long walks, playtime, basic training, and keeping dogs engaged and exercised. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs, so I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I am currently unemployed and struggling with mental health so i have all the time in the world to walk, or sit your pets. my cat is the only thing that helps me get out of bed every morning and hopefully your baby’s can help me too. I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely get some outdoor time and play. I keep the area secure and supervised, and I’m committed to providing a clean, calm, and safe environment for every pet in my care. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and specific needs.
About: I’ve been an avid dog lover since elementary school. I was excited to play with the neighborhood dogs after school, loved feeding them and having that responsibility It’s honestly perfect I don’t work much and I have a beautiful apartment for me and my other animals. I wake up early and sleep late. I try making the pet as comfortable as possible and avoid any mishaps. If there is it’s also not a problem I have a space for them to chill and I’m outside a lot. I playing basketball, walks and run so it will be perfect for them.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a child. I got my first dog at age 7 and was always helping take care of him. I have helped taken care of animals for my friends and family as well as neighbors when they are away. All ages and all sizes and all kinds are accepted. I love animals and will always make sure your furry friend is taken care of! I am caring for animals part time. I am available weekends full day and night if needed. I can do evenings during the week if needed after 4pm. I have a fenced in yard and a fur baby to keep yours company. Her name is Stella and she is super friendly. I have a crate if needed to use. I have many extra toys and treats to offer! Your furry friend will be effortlessly cared for and loved by me and they will have gained a new friend!
“Selfishly we don’t want to review Kathryn and let the secret out of how great she is! Our pup adores her and she has really helped him come out of his shell. We are really grateful to have found such a kind and patient dog walker!”
“I highly recommend Jessica. Our dog Louie is usually very shy with people however he warmed up with Jessica so quickly. She is very knowledgeable about pets and does an excellent job!”
“I couldn't ask for a better person to walk my pup Ollie. This was our first time trying out Rover so we didn't know what to expect and Erick gave us comfort the first day we've met him. 10/10, very patient and communicates quick when we have a question about anything relating to Ollie.”
“Rachel was excellent with our senior dog (Bentley). She took on the assignment at the very last minute due to our original Walker coming down with an illness. Ulthough a last minute request, Rachel came over the night before to make sure she met Bentley and to introduce herself to us. We explained our walking and feeding processes to her, and she was very accepting to the routine. While we were on our trip, Rachel sent us numerous pictures of Bentley either at home or on his walk. She kept us well updated on his activities. Unfortunately, while we were gone, he did have some accidents in the house, and Rachel cleaned them up and took care of making sure that everything was disposed to properly and that the rags used to clean up the mess were washed. Wonderful customer service. We would not hesitate to use Rachel again, as well as recommend her to any of our friends.”
“Jodie was a huge help for us when we went on vacation. I even had the dates wrong and she still showed up and took care of our pup. We are very appreciative to have had her.”
About: Hello! I’ve taken care of different types of pets over the last 6 years. I would say I specialize in dogs of all kinds but not limited to just dogs! I’m currently in my offseason as a professional athlete. I’ve always had a love for pets so I enjoy meeting and becoming familiar with new animals! I grew up with several pets but as I’ve gotten older haven’t had the privilege of having my own YET so this would be the next best thing for me. I have a fenced in front and back yard. No other animals that can be an issue for your animal. I have a mostly free schedule so my care and attention can go to your pet.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve personally owned 6 dogs and 1 cat, and I have over 10 years of pet-sitting experience. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy spending time with animals, taking them for walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide loving, attentive care while keeping pets comfortable in their normal routine. I follow feeding and medication instructions, provide walks and playtime, give plenty of affection, and keep their space clean and safe. I also make sure to communicate with owners and send updates so they know their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and respect I have for dogs. I believe dogs are not just pets—they are cherished members of the family. I treat every dog in my care with patience, kindness, and attention, just as I would my own. My goal is to give dog parents complete peace of mind, knowing their fur baby is safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re away. • Puppy training & obedience reinforcement • Senior dog care & medication administration • Positive reinforcement training • High-attention, compassionate care • Reliable routines & clear communication I allow pets on all furniture, my bed, my chairs, couches. I don’t believe that pets shouldn’t be allowed on furniture. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I currently have ample time and flexibility to dedicate to dogs in my care. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, training reinforcement, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. After recently losing my own dog to kidney failure, I understand deeply how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby. That experience has strengthened my commitment to providing attentive, compassionate care and treating every dog as if they were my own. I’m able to give dogs my undivided attention, whether that means extra comfort for senior dogs, structured routines for puppies, or simply being present to ensure they feel safe, loved, and at ease. My goal is to give dog parents complete peace of mind, knowing their fur baby is receiving the same care, patience, and love I would want for my own.

Ollie had a great 30‑minute walk with Nicole. He connected with her immediately, and the energy between them felt easy and comfortable. He returned happy, relaxed, and clearly pleased with the outing. It’s nice to see him genuinely excited for his next walk. Highly recommend!
Zaynah has been a blessing. I just had surgery and can’t walk Lemmie right now. Lemmie took an instant liking to Zaynah. She does a great jobs, is extremely punctual and polite. Lemmie loves her and has the biggest smile after their walks. I highly recommend Zaynah!
Taryn was amazing and helped us last minute with our senior dog. She was prompt in her initial response and her initial meeting. We received pictures and updates everyday consistently. Very happy with the service Taryn provided and will happily use her again. Thank you Taryn!!
Here’s a stronger version that keeps the warmth while sounding polished and credible: Nicholas has been fantastic. He arrived right on time for our meet-and-greet and was professional, friendly, and confident from the start. I have two 110-pound Dobermans who can be challenging to handle, and Nicholas had no problem getting them under control and walking them together. His calm demeanor and experience with large dogs were immediately apparent. It’s not easy to find someone you trust with your dogs, but Nicholas quickly earned that trust. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with him and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and capable dog walker.
Lenny took great care of our boys! He was incredibly kind, professional, and accommodating with our last-minute request. He showed up on time and kept us updated throughout the walks. Our favorite part was the detailed report cards he provided after each walk — he shared how the boys were doing, their energy levels, and little updates that really gave us peace of mind. He even coordinated with our neighbor to make sure the dogs were well taken care of. We truly appreciated his communication and attention to detail. We will definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!

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 Bowie. 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 Bowie 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 Bowie. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
