About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve taken care my sister’s dog, my cousin’s puppy, my friend’s chickens, and my friend’s dog too, over the years. I recently decided to give the Rover community a chance. I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I have one fur baby of my own - a brown pit mix who is full of energy and curiosity! I currently have a lot of free time on my hands, which will allow me to dedicate all the time necessary to your lifelong companions. I am available for drop ins or house sitting when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. I’m a reliable, caring dog walker who’ll treat your pup like family. When in your home, I would take your fur baby for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable. I also provide video and picture updates of your baby’s day.
“Christian was wonderful! Very friendly and patient with our dogs upon meeting them. Was able to help us with last minute walking needs. We will definitely continue to use his services and would absolutely recommend to others 😄”
About: An FFA (Future Farmers of America) member who helped with our doggy daycare program for a year ranging from medium to small dogs. I also regularly volunteer at Humane Society caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, bunnies etc. I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats of all ages! As a full-time college student, I make sure to be able to focus my time on caring for your furbabies! Please contact me so we can schedule around my classes! I highly recommend a meet and greet so the pet(s) gets used to me and I get an idea of their personality. I will also do a quick briefing on any health problems I should know before hand, certain procedures that are common place for your pet to ensure they're comfortable with me and make sure we are on the same page for care.
About: I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs, and have grown to really enjoy caring for cats as well. I have a bunny of my own, so I understand how important it is to give pets daily attention, patience, and love. I’m known by friends and family for being great with animals, and I’ve even been recommended to work at a grooming and dog care store. I’m gentle, reliable, and focused on making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I can provide reliable dog walking and drop-in visits when your pets need them most. Whether it’s a morning stroll, an afternoon check-in, or some evening cuddle time, I make sure every pet gets exercise, attention, and love. I understand how important it is for pets to feel happy and safe while you’re away, and I tailor my visits to fit their needs—and your schedule! I make sure they’re always supervised, have plenty of water and comfort, and get lots of love and attention. Your pets will have fun and feel cared for while you’re away, so you can return knowing they’re happy and safe!
“We have loved working with Jordan! She really goes the extra mile when taking care of my pup. He is typically timid with new walkers but she knows exactly how to make him comfortable. They even play a hide and seek game with treats that he loves! It really puts my mind at ease while working knowing that she’s going to be caring for him. Also wonderful communicating when she will be getting there and all details of the visit.”
“AJ has been walking both of our cane corsos for a few months - they are large and one of them takes a while to warm up to people. Through the whole process he has been patient, kind, and respectful and has gained the full trust and friendship of my big pups. He goes out of his way to make them comfortable and they just LOVE his walks, visits, and belly rubs. I couldn’t recommend AJ more.”
“Allison was great! Super friendly and communicative. My plans changed but she was super flexible and understanding and she was great with my hyper puppy. We would definitely have her back!”
“Chris stepped in and really helped me out. He's is excellent with dogs! My Willie really liked him. I highly recommend him. I will use him again when the need arises. Very prompt and professional.”
“When we're out of town for a short weekend, we usually have morning and night coverage for our baby. Wires got crossed and he didn't get the care we're used to. Enter Christine. Her and her husband went above and beyond. They cleaned an accident that happened after our usual walker didn't walk the dog accordingly because of the rain. Our poor boy, who never has house accidents, pooped inside. Again, Christine made sure our house was cleaned and even checked to make sure there were no further accidents. She communicated regularly and just gave us such ease while we were gone for the weekend. I can't say enough good things. We'll be booking with them again.”
About: Have had animals all my life. Feathered, furred, scaled I can handle it. Even the crawlers if you have them. I do wildlife rescues as well. I am on summer break from teaching so I have open availability. Still on the fence about over night stays because I have my own pets to consider. I will care for your pets however you want me too. I know some can be picky or require medication. All depends on what are their needs.
“Rebecca was absolutely great! She communicated very well and made me feel extremely comfortable knowing my dog was with her. I will definitely be trying to exclusively schedule her for my future bookings.”
“Patrick was amazing. I recently had surgery and was unable to walk my dog (pretty much my child) and Patrick was not only communicative, he was kind and helpful. My dog was always excited to see him. Thanks again Patrick!! I appreciate your help.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the combination of my deep love for animals and my responsible, detail-oriented nature. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies who need consistency and patience, to senior dogs who require gentle, attentive care and sometimes medication or mobility support. I’m comfortable following specific routines, administering medications, and handling special diets. I also love getting outside for walks and playtime, and I always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable! I have flexible job which allows me to care for animals in my spare time. I will work with your schedule to make sure your pet is taken care of! Safety is always my priority when caring for animals for my sake and theirs. I want to encourage safe play and a calming environment to encourage rest.
About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs, 5 cats and 15 rabbits at one time in one household before! I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.
“Ashley was simply amazing! It was my first time leaving my pup for a vacation and I couldn’t have been more relieved. Ashley is punctual, communicates well, and went well above my expectations. I won’t be using anyone else to watch my puppy.”
About: I have years of experience caring for my own dog and several other breeds. I am skilled at giving medication. I am able to walk and feed your baby at a reliable time. I’m currently working full time from home, and will only sit 1 or two dogs at a time so I will always be available to provide the best communication for your pet. I do offer daily walks, and I do not crate animals unless I am stepping out of the house for a bit. I live in a 2 bedroom home with a fenced yard and I currently own a pitbull named Bruno who gets along with every dog that he meets. There are dog beds and water throughout the house so that your pet will always be comfortable

I will treat your dog the same as I do mine. I love my dog more than anything. She means everything to me, so I promise to love and take care of yours the same while you are gone. I have been doing doing this for many years. I absolutely love and enjoy it. I always take pictures throughout the visit and will keep you updated. My dog Lucy is so friendly and sweet. She is fixed and is great with all size dogs. She is a 3 year old Australian Shepherd. She really is one of the most loving dogs. I work from home, so I can let your dog outside throughout the day as often as she/he may need. I do leave the house for errands or gym, so there are times your dog may be alone. I have a fenced in backyard for your dog(s) to potty, play, and get some exercise. Please let me know if your dog has any anxiety issues or tends to be possessive of toys/food.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Carrollwood on Rover is $16.65 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 7,622 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Carrollwood. 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 Carrollwood. 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 Carrollwood.

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 Carrollwood. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
