About: I grew up with dogs and would help care for them, from walking, to feeding and bathing. I've also helped friends with theirs. I've cared for dogs as small as pugs and dachshunds to as big as collies and pitbulls. I work full time but I do have a very flexible employer! I'm willing to stop by anytime from 8am to 2am and am willing to house-sit as well. I do not offer boarding at my own home but if you asked anyone who knows me theyd tell you that I'm very cleanly, organized and respectful. I will always do my best to adhear to any instructions you leave for your baby and I do have experience kennaling big dogs.

About: I’m a pet parent to 4 dogs of various sizes and 1 cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for animals with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I have 13 years of experience working with pets of all ages, including seniors and special‑needs pets with clear instructions. I work full time Monday through Friday, so my availability is 5 PM–10 PM on weekdays, with open availability on weekends. I’m happy to provide treats with your approval, and I prefer traveling to your home so your pet can stay in a familiar environment. Baths can be given upon request. I do not trim nails or hair since I’m not certified for grooming. If your pet has special routines, medications, or accommodations, I’m more than willing to follow them. Feel free to reach out anytime — I’m always happy to answer questions and help you feel confident about your pet’s care. I currently work full-time in the medical field. I’m able to provide weekend care and minor drop in and walks during the week day. I have several pets at home. If your pet does well around other animals I will be able to house them for a few days. I’m available for dog walking all weekend. Limited availability during the week.

About: I have several years of experience providing dependable and compassionate pet care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I have cared for both small and large adult dogs through regular walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, ensuring they receive the exercise, attention, and care they need. I am comfortable handling energetic, strong dogs as well as senior dogs that require a gentler approach. My priority is always the safety, happiness, and well-being of every dog, and I treat each pet with the same love and care I would give my own. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to check in on pets. Prefer morning walks and late afternoon walks.Have an open schedule. When caring for pets in clients’ homes, I make sure they stay comfortable by following their regular routines. I provide fresh food and water, take dogs on walks, let them outside for bathroom breaks, clean up after them, administer medication if instructed, and spend quality time playing with and comforting them. I also keep the home clean and secure by bringing in mail or packages if requested, watering plants, and ensuring doors and gates are locked before leaving. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind by providing reliable, attentive, and loving care while they are away.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals and feel very comfortable handling pets with different needs and personalities. I currently work in recreational therapy twice a week, which has helped me develop patience, responsibility, and strong attention to detail skills that carry over into providing safe and attentive pet care. As an online college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, consistency, an supervision they deserve. At home, our family has five dogs, so I am very familiar with managing multiple pets at once and maintaining consistent schedules. In addition to daily care, I have experience with overnight dog sitting that includes week-long stays where I handled feeding, walks, playtime and managing pet's normal routines. I have cared for puppies, senior dogs, and cats and I understand how to adjust care depending on energy level and age. I have also taken care of chickens while house sitting, so I am comfortable with a variety of animals beyond just dogs and cats. I am able to drive, which allies me to be available for drop ins, walks, and emergencies if needed. Overall, I am dedicated to making families feel safe with leaving their pets at home and making the pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work part time and am an online college student. I work Wednesday and Friday nights from 4pm-9pm. For my college classes I do not have to be on any type of zoom, so I do my course work at my own pace. I provide care in my clients home so pets can stay in a familiar, low-stress environment and maintain their normal routine. I follow all care instructions including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. Safety is my top priority. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure and keep pets aware from anything that may be unsafe. I work to build trust with both owners and pets by being consistent, patient, and respectful of each pet's personality. I also have reliable transportation, so if an emergency does arise I can provide additional needs.

About: My name is Taylor and I am a veterinary technician servicing the DMV area. I have been working with dogs specifically since I was 15 and cats since I was 18. I personally have a cat and have had dogs in the past, and I understand the stress put on the importance of finding someone that you can trust to watch your animals while you are away. Safety is my upmost concern and as a veterinary technician and a groomer, I am very experienced in dog and cat care and would love to babysit your little angel! I can't wait to meet you and thanks for visiting my profile! I currently work from home so I have more than enough time to devote to your pet and their individual needs. My hours are not necessarily tied to a desk or computer either, so I am able to do walks freely throughout the day. Depending on the customers request, I am able to accommodate most housing accomodations. There is a room specifically designated in the house for the pet for the duration of the stay, which has toys, beds, food and water as well as a TV. it’s also a daybed for me as well so that I am able to stay in the room with your pet. My backyard is large and it’s open, however I will be keeping pers on-leash anytime they are outside.

“Nia popped by to walk our dog while we spent the day in Baltimore. She communicated every step of the way, including a heads up on her estimated time of arrival, a progress report(pee,poop, water break) with photos and she called me to let me know I could close the garage door remotely so that we didn’t leave it open too long. We will definitely be calling Nia again!!”

About: I’ve been walking dogs since 2021 and I’ve personally trained all three of my own dogs in basic obedience after taking a professional training course with my German Shepherd, Mufaza. Because of that, I feel comfortable handling dogs of any size and temperament — from calm pups to high-energy breeds. What sets me apart is how much I focus on building trust with every dog. I’m patient, responsible, and always make sure each walk is safe, relaxing, and fun. I specialize in dog walking, but I also offer pet sitting, drop-in visits, and care in clients’ homes. I try to keep my schedule flexible to fit your pet’s routine — whether your dog loves calm morning walks or more energetic afternoon adventures. I live in Vermont Square, a beautiful and safe area with plenty of parks and green spaces, perfect for dog walks and exploration. I always make sure dogs are comfortable with both long and short leashes, adjusting the walk to their confidence and surroundings. Safety is my priority — I keep an eye on other dogs, traffic, and potential stressors. If owners prefer, I can send real-time updates and photos during our walks, so you always know your pet is doing great.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,013 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Bushwood. 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 Bushwood. 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 , 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 Bushwood 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bushwood. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
