“Lara is very communicative and easy to work with. One of my dogs is very skittish and slow to warm up with new people, and the other is very large and over exuberant, and Lara has been great with them both. My dogs enjoy her visits and are always quiet and restful throughout the evening when she comes. And I love knowing they're not stuck inside all day. I'll definitely use Lara again.”
“Ashley was an absolute pleasure to work with! I needed last-minute care for my dog, so I reached out to her around 10pm the night before. I was very grateful for her quick reply at that hour. She happened to be available the next day, which was such a lifesaver. We did a meet & greet around 10am, and later that afternoon she came by to give my dog a short walk/potty break. She followed all of my instructions and kept me updated with detailed messages, which gave me confidence that she understood what was needed. She also sent several videos during the walk which gave me peace of mind. My dog is currently recovering from an injury, so it was especially important to find someone who would be patient, attentive, and responsible. Ashley was exactly that, and I felt relieved knowing my dog was in such caring hands. Ashley is kind, reliable, communicative, and seemed to genuinely enjoy connecting with my pup. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy petsitter. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Our dog was in last stages of lymphoma. Aiyana gave her her last gentle walks and was very understanding and supportive about the situation. When we have another dog, we will definitely use Aiyana's services again.”
“I'm incredibly grateful for Luna's exceptional care of our beloved pooch while we were away for the day. From the moment they met, it was evident that Luna and our dog formed an instant bond. Their time together seemed nothing short of delightful, and I was thoroughly impressed by Luna's professionalism and evident passion for animals. Meeting her was a pleasure, and I'm eagerly anticipating the opportunity to enlist her services again in the future.”

“I am beyond pleased with the exceptional care and attention that our male dog walker provided to my two schnauzers. In just two walks, it is evident that he genuinely cares for them. His sweet demeanor and dedication make him a standout choice. I will definitely be utilizing his services again”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brookdale
I’m a caregiver for my 95-year-old dad, but don’t count on my father for anything other than potty breaks for the dog. I booked Ashley for the week that I had jury duty so that my dog would get out every day for some good exercise. Jury duty did not materialize, so I was home, but still busy. Ashley came daily to pick up my dog for the time that we booked. He was happy when she picked him up every day, and he was super happy when he got home afterward. Mission accomplished! I know he would be happy to have Ashley walk him again sometime. My dog has a bunch of modes and Ashley was able to pick up the routine. I showed her what works for me to get him into the car or other handling tips. She picked it up quickly, and my dog seemed very comfortable with her.
Maria Jose was amazing! She was very flexible as we faced some complications on our itinerary and she handled everything with professionalism. Cookie immediately warmed up to her. Maria Jose has a very friendly personality and communicated with us very well throughout the day. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Brookdale on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,361 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Brookdale. 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 Brookdale. 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 Brookdale.

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 Brookdale. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
