About: I have taking a vet science course for 3 years, where I have been taught to care for many different animals. I also have experience in taking care of animals myself a rabbit, a guinea pig, and a Labrador retriever. I am currently on break from college and looking to fill my days with jobs that gives me different experiences everyday even better if it’s doing something I love. When I care for my pets and hopefully yours, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routine, and any special instructions you share. I love taking long walks, so your animal will get plenty of exercise and outdoor time. I will keep their space clean, give a lot of attention, and send regular updates and photos with permission throughout their day.
“I can't say enough good things about Alex B! He is extremely reliable- if you book him you can rest assured he will be there! He is very attentive and interested in all details about Chippy's care. In addition he is pleasant, punctual and efficient.”
“Finding a trustworthy dog walker can be stressful, but Erica put my mind at ease. She was highly professional, communicative and displays a true love for animals. I appreciated the text updates and photos from their outings. I now know I can travel when necessary without worries. Thank you Erica. Looking forward to working with you in the future.”

James was wonderful as always! James was reliable, communicative, and took great care of Freddy while I was away. I really appreciated the extra attention to his food and medication, and it gave me peace of mind knowing Freddy was in such good hands. I would happily book James again and highly recommend James to anyone looking for excellent pet care. 🐾
Isabelle is an incredible dog walker/sitter. I could not recommend her enough. She is so patient and kind, and her love and care for animals is evident. Our rescue pup needs extra attention and patience, and Isabelle is always so generous with the care she gives him. It was our first time using Rover so we were a bit nervous but Isabelle made us feel assured and we trusted that our puppy would be in good hands.
Kathrin is extremely reliable, responsive, and caring. She is flexible, communicative, and dependable. She went the extra mile to provide extraordinary care and long walks for our dog. Her updates were quick, transparent, and thorough. We will be booking again soon.
Madeline is responsible, communicates well and has been absolutely terrific in caring for our dogs! She has a true passion for pets which shows! Our dogs are genuinely excited to see her and love their walks! Thank you so much for the care you demonstrate, can’t wait to book you again soon!
Ray has been walking my dog Bucky for months, and we love everything about Ray! He is open and flexible when we request nitty-gritty stuff for Bucky’s walk, such as bringing water, putting a cooling shirt on, walking in the shade, etc. We are lucky to have Ray around :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Brooklyn on Rover is $23.31 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 28,527 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Brooklyn. 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 Brooklyn. 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 Brooklyn.

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 Brooklyn. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
