“Seeing Nikki may be the best part of my dog’s day😂. We had such a great impression from the start and she has consistently provided excellent care for our girl. From the moment I reached out and throughout the recurring walks, communication has been outstanding. We very much trust and rely on Nikki for our weekly walks!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life, privately dog & cat sat for years, and have worked professionally in a dog kennel, giving me hands-on experience with all breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. What sets me apart: Specialized Care: Experienced in gentle senior pet care, keeping anxious pets at ease, and sticking strictly to detailed daily routines. Kennel-Tested Expertise: Skilled in reading body language, managing play styles, maintaining strict feeding schedule, and administering medications safely. I work a hybrid schedule (teleworking with occasional office days) and have Fridays through Sundays completely off. Because of this setup, I am available to house-sit and keep your pets company, ensuring they get dependable care and routine consistency whether I'm working from home or stepping out briefly. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and your companions with the utmost respect. I strive to mirror their exact normal routine so they experience minimal disruption while you're away. Backed by my experience working in a dog kennel, I am trained to spot subtle behavioral cues, maintain secure environments, and handle household rules carefully, ensuring your pets stay safe and relaxed.

About: Throughout my childhood, I had two dogs and have become an animal lover ever since. My main priority is to ensure your animals feel safe and I will talk to them as if they are my own to get used to me. I have had the opportunity to care for dogs/ cats of all ages including those needing special accommodations. I am a dental hygenist working part time and enjoy spending my free time babysitting along with watching animals! I am thrilled at the thought of working with your animals/ children and look forward to meeting you! I am not currently employed or in school, so my schedule is very open and flexible to meet the needs of your pets or children! I do not watch animals in my own home. With that being said, I am respectful of your privacy and will only go where you ask me to go in your home.

About: Starting in 2015, while working as a housekeeper, I became the go-to pet sitter for many of the families I cleaned for. Even after starting my career as an esthetics instructor, I stayed on as their trusted sitter, continuing to care for their senior cats and dogs alike, foster dogs, special needs dogs, dogs with behavioral issues. With both a cat and dog myself and having raised two litters of pups, I offer a wide variety of knowledge and expertise. I take pride in giving an insane amount of scratches, massages, baby talk and car rides for doggy ice cream from Ritters, all while singing “you are my sunshine.” I am a firm and proud believer that I ought to treat your pets as I would my very own! Having a huge heart for animals, I trust their instincts and strive to be as in tune with them as possible. They truly are so sensitive to what’s going on around them and I humbly love learning from each animal, their outlook on life and their own experiences. I have a lot of flexibility within my schedule as I only work 3 days each week as an esthetician and esthetics instructor, and have my husband to help me take care of our fur own fur babies. I don’t mind early mornings, and strive to keep a consistent routine for your pet. I will ALWAYS send check in photos each day I come, keep things clean and organized, observe their behavior, and stay as close to their normal routine as possible.

About: I’ve had at least one dog in my home my whole life, and I’ve been involved in training all of my pets. Friends have relied on me to dog-sit for them for long periods of time away. I have experience caring for <8wk old puppies I’m a second year college student and pet care is my part-time job. My schedule is very flexible as I do my schoolwork from home. I provide as much care as the pet needs and I take great care in making sure your pet feels safe around me. If the pet isn’t a people person, I’m more than happy to simply meet their needs and give them their space. On the other hand, I also very much enjoy pets that need lots of play and lovings!

About: I've had & taken care of cats & dogs since I was 7 years old! Over the past 5 years I've moved into caring for the pets of other's just as a favor to friends & family. Now I want to leave corporate America & care for furry family members professionally. I'm currently working on making pet sitting my full time job so my availability is completely open for around the clock care whether your pet is an early riser or a night owl! I prefer to care for pets in their own space as I have roommates at this time & our landlord doesn't allow pets on property.

About: With 19 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, I’ve learned that every pet has their own unique personality, needs, and little quirks that make them special! As a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent myself, I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies who love to play to sweet seniors who prefer a slower pace and a little extra TLC. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, basic puppy training reinforcement, and providing the patience and attention older pets deserve. What sets me apart is that I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all pet care. I take the time to get to know each animal, respect their individual routines, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs an adventure buddy, a cuddle companion, or simply a familiar, reassuring presence, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. 🐾❤️ Caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life, so welcoming a few more furry friends into my routine comes naturally! As a devoted pet parent myself, my days are filled with feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure every animal gets the love and attention they deserve. I have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time to your pets without feeling rushed. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or keeping your furry family members company while you’re away, I’m happy to work around their individual needs and routines. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so my goal is to keep their days as comfortable, familiar, and stress-free as possible. Your pets won’t just be another appointment on my calendar. They’ll be a priority! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities! As a pet parent myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family members in someone else’s care, and that’s something I never take lightly. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and do my best to maintain the routines your pets already know and love. From feeding schedules and potty breaks to walks, playtime, and snuggles, I follow your instructions closely to help your pets feel safe, secure, and comfortable. During walks and outdoor activities, I stay attentive to my surroundings, use secure leashes, and always prioritize your pet’s safety. I understand that every animal has different personalities, boundaries, and comfort levels, and I never force interactions or situations that could make them uncomfortable. Communication is also very important to me! I’m happy to provide regular updates, pictures, and little check-ins so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your babies are happy and in loving hands. My goal is simple: to provide the same patience, respect, and unconditional love that I would want someone to give my own pets!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Centerville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Centerville is $18 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,380 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Centerville. 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 Centerville. 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 Centerville 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 Centerville. On Rover:

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