This is our first time working with Delina, we are so happy to have found her! She is the sweetest, all the humans and our big mutt Louie immediately adopted her as a treasured friend. We look forward to many future visits (we hope)!

Natalie was so quick to respond and communicated every detail of her arrival and care of our Zella. This was Natalie’s first time meeting Zella, and their first walk together went great even though Z can be a bit shy and hesitant to new people in her older age! We will definitely book Natalie’s services again!

Lilla was fantastic!! Often going above and beyond to make sure our puppy had an amazing experience with her. She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures and/or video to let us know our puppy was doing well. Highly recommend and will definitely book her again whenever we need someone to walk Molly!

Eric is absolutely amazing. My dog is a rescue, and he’s very strong, but Eric is patient, loving, and understanding with him. We truly could not have asked for a better dog walker, and we’re lucky to have Eric.

About: Hi I’m Hannah! I will be starting my graduate program in Speech-Language Pathology in the fall. I currently live in Shaw, but I have lived in different areas of DC for three years. I’ll have a more flexible schedule while I’m in school, and I’m happy to walk, feed, or dog sit! I have around 10 years of experience with the dog I grew up with. She was a small Havanese named Luna! She needed a lot of care and special food, but she was the best and loved a long walk. I have also helped walk friends’ and neighbors’ dogs. I would love a dog of my own one day, and I thought this would be a good opportunity to take care of and hang out with new pets! I also fostered over 10 cats while living in DC, but I’m not fostering any right now, and don’t plan to for a while. Please feel free to each out with any questions :) I will be entirely free the month of July and can come anytime. I will be back in September for my masters program! I’m still unsure of my schedule then, but I will update here when I have it. Growing up with pets and fostering cats in DC has taught me the importance of keeping a safe and comfortable home. I will always respect your space and know to approach gently with all animals. I always follow instructions given when entering someone else’s home.

Kaylee was reliable, professional, and friendly crouching down to meet my bostie at her level upon greeting — scoring immediate points in our hearts! Binx met her with an enthusiastic wiggle butt each subsequent walk visit (used 3 days in a row while I’m on crutches), which told me everything I needed to know. Kaylee handled my dog’s reactivity to squirrels and other dogs with confidence, making me feel completely at ease as well. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend Kaylee for her sweet spirit and understanding of short-nosed small dog needs amidst DC summer heat.

About: I have taken care of animals and been around animals my entire life. I love both cats and dogs, and have a dog at home! I have plenty of free time during the week. I am typically traveling on weekends and work Wednesdays but otherwise am available at all hours. I live in an apartment but plenty of time to walk around the neighborhoods and there are various parks and dog-parks specifically situated nearby that I bring my own dog to.

I love the fact you can look at various profiles and decide which walker may be a fit. Dominick was just amazing!! I am unable to take my chihuahua for long walks because i have a very weak heart and he was crying for his exercise. I feel guilty because of my conditions and Dominick was extremely flexible with scheduling the walk. Dominick is extremely nice and very communicative. He works with you. I will be requesting him again!! It gives me a peace of mind that my dog was happy and I didnt have the burden of guilt.

Gio was an excellent dog walker. She helped me when my current dog walker could not continue walking buddy. She reported all the details of the visit efficiently and gave us peace of mind. She was informative and responsible. This was my first time using rover and I had a great experience thanks to Gio. She has a true love for dogs and what she does. I will definitely work with her in the future.

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.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Capitol Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Capitol Heights on Rover is $21.4 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 16,683 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Capitol Heights. 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 Capitol Heights. 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 Capitol Heights.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Capitol Heights. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
