Madison was great! She was able to accommodate a same-day request, which I really appreciated. She took Annika on an adventure to the park, and Annika came home completely pooped. It was clear she had a great time. I would definitely book with Madison again!

About: I have two dogs and one cat at home currently. I enjoy spending time playing and cuddling with my animals every chance I can get. I work part-time, so I am looking for something else to keep me busy this summer. I can not work Friday nights. I can check on them early in the morning or late at night. I can only do all day certain days of the week. I can help walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, or even just spending time with them cuddling on the couch if they are feeling like a lazy day.

About: Hello! I have taken care of many different types of animals, all shapes and sizes ever since I was 15 years old. I have taken care of cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, and fish! Whether it’s just one fur baby, or even up to six at a time, I can do it! I love animals and have a cat and four fish of my own—I have had a few dogs in the past as well! I would love to get to know your pets and take care of them if you need help! :) I am typically free most week days and weekends anytime to walk, feed, or play with pets. Mondays and Wednesdays I am more busy in the morning time due to classes, however I can still do drop-ins before and after on those days as well! For my current pets I keep my fish in a 50 gallon tank since they are smaller, but love the space. For my cat, Squash, she stays in my main unit with me free to roam around and cuddle with me whenever she likes. I do not offer boarding services since my complex only allows a certain amount of pets at a time.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including two sweet senior dogs and a cat, and I’ve loved every moment of it. I have volunteered at a local animal shelter near Clemson where I took dogs out on “doggy daycations” — long walks, fresh air, and of course pup cups to make their day extra special. I also grew up helping care for my family’s Australian Labradoodle, so I’m comfortable with everything from energetic playtime to gentle, patient care. Whether your pet wants adventure, affection, or a calm companion, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy. I have a very light semester at Clemson this year, which means I’ll have plenty of downtime and a flexible schedule for pet care. Whether you need regular walks, drop‑ins, or last‑minute help, I’ll be around and available. I love spending my free time outside anyway, so your pets will get lots of attention, fresh air, and fun while you’re away. I always prioritize safety and comfort. I have hands‑on experience walking untrained shelter dogs outdoors, so I’m confident handling pups who may pull, get excited, or need a little extra patience. I’m gentle, calm, and loving with both dogs and cats, and I make sure every animal feels secure and respected in my care. Whether we’re out exploring or relaxing at home, I create a safe, positive environment where pets can be themselves and feel completely at ease.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life, growing up with both dogs and cats and continuing to pet sit regularly since I got my driver’s license. Over the years, I’ve worked with a variety of personalities—from high-energy, playful pets to more shy or older animals that need a calmer, more patient approach. What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I bring to each pet. As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule, which means I can spend more quality time with your pet rather than rushing in and out. I’m very attentive to routines, behavior changes, and individual needs, and I make sure each pet feels comfortable and safe in their environment. I’m a graduate student at Clemson University with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for pet care throughout the day and week. I can easily adjust my routine to fit your pet’s needs and provide consistent, reliable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible, this includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their own space by giving them plenty of attention, patience, and companionship.

About: I have always grown up with pets: 3 dogs, 1 cat, and a beared dragon. I have helped train a puppy, cared for a dying senior dog, and everything in between. I have experience with pets who have high energy, anxiety, dietary needs, and physical disabilities. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to pet sit, drop in, provide over night care, and walk their dogs. I have worked at a dog groomer for over 2 years, which has given me experience with a wide variety of animals and their temperaments. I’m a full time student at Clemson University who has most afternoons/ evenings and weekend free to care for your pets! I am studying wildlife conservation so spending time with animals is one of my favorite things to do! Following instructions, I can care for your pet however you direct me to. I am comfortable taking your dog for walks/ hikes, playing indoors and outdoors, dosing medications, keeping up with training, and providing all the love and comfort your pet will need while you are away!

Caley is very sweet to my dog. She communicates well and is always on time. He’s a husky so he’s an a big dog and sometimes can be a little difficult to walk on a leash. She runs with him and plays with him and gives him treats. She’s even asked me if she could turn on our sprinkler that we use for our backyard on a hot day so he could play in the water. He had a blast. He’s always in such a good mood when she’s been there. He’s told me people that he doesn’t like and people that he does like. He’s always super happy when she’s been there. Ive I actually had her take care of my dogs and my cats for years before she joined the app. I will continue to use Caley.

About: Through my work with Battle Buddies, a nonprofit that raises and places service dogs for veterans, I gained valuable experience being around dogs regularly and observing the care, structure, and attention they require. In addition, I’ve cared for dogs belonging to friends, family, and private clients through pet sitting and drop-in visits. As a professional photographer, I also love capturing pets’ personalities and include complimentary photos during our time together! I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I plan my day to ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help their pet feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, fresh food and water, and keep the home clean and respected. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

Every time she walks my girl while I am at work, I receive the best smiley doggy photos, a wonderful Rover Card update and could not be more pleased with her services. When her profile says "Your pets new BFF", she isn't kidding. Thank you so much, Jessi.

About: I've always grown up around cats and dogs, but when I moved to Minnesota I don't get to be around pets as often, so I look forward to the opportunity of meeting you and your dog. I am very active and enjoy jogging as well. I work full time as a Real Estate Agent but try to keep my schedule flexible. My aunt is a vet so I would often go into her clinic and visit the animals there, I would also take my family member's dogs for walks all the time. Animals bring joy to my life and I know that having a dog in the city can be difficult, that's why I am here to help as much as I can to take your dog for a walk! I work from home so I can make just about anytime work before 6pm that is! Let me work around your s ch exile to make sure your pet gets the care it needs! Every pet is different, and I feel that matching their energy is very important. First I get their trust and show that I am a safe and kind person before the fun begins!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats for over 10 years and genuinely love being around animals. Growing up with pets has given me experience with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and recognizing their individual needs and personalities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will treat them with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own. Whether your pet needs an energetic playmate or a calm companion, I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and reliable experience. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I make it a priority to communicate clearly with pet owners and ensure their pets receive consistent care, attention, and affection while they’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to build trust with them while providing plenty of attention, patience, and care. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Lauren M. had great communication with me and excellent rapport with our energetic 2+ year old Doodles. She gave them a great fun and safe walk around the neighborhood, being mindful of the other dogs in our neighborhood. Our dogs are SO VERY excited to see her and I know it is because they are loved on and focused on during their playtime and walks together! We can’t wait to have her dog walk, check in or dog sit for us again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

FAQs for Dog Walking - Central

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Central on Rover is $21.09 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 1,427 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Central. 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 Central. 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 Central.

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 Central. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
