About: I've had pets (mostly cats and dogs) my whole life, and our whole family are big animal lovers. We would love your pets like they were our own until they go back home to you! I'm a homeschooling mama so I’m able to provide almost-constant care! I have pets of my own and already build my day around their schedule, and I’m able to accommodate your schedule as well! I have a large fenced-in back yard as well as a large doggy door (to accommodate dogs of any size) so pups can come and go as they please. I have one dog and one cat to keep yours company and play together. We live on a pretty quiet street and (weather permitting) I try to get outside for a walk with the dogs once a day. We also have baby gates and other rooms that can be utilized in the event that pets need a break from each other or the toddler.
About: If you haven't read my other 30 page essays about my passion for animals heres another hopefully shortened. I will feed your turtle, I will hold your lizard, I will pet your tarantula, I will pretend to fly with your various bird pets, I will talk to your fishy friends. Call me a hippie but I will stop by night or day to talk to a sweet critter and give it the care it needs when you are away. I have an entire routine for my own pets, plants, and strays in my area. My day revolves around my kiddo and the animals we have the privilege of being around. As long as it doesnt impact my family and personal pets needs I can do it any time night or day. While o wish I could offer an entire pet daycare out of my own property, I live in an apartment unit. So if we are at a client's home I will run through whatever tasks needed for me to do. Water plants, etc. If an incident occurs where the animal has made a mess or had an accident i will contact the owner for how they would luke for me to proceed further. (Cleaning, tossing damaged house items aside for later inspection, etc) This is exactly the kind of "on call" job i would love to have.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 61 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Castleford. 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 Castleford. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Castleford 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 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 Castleford. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
