“Marilyn did such a good job with my dog and she was able to accept my booking for a last minute ordeal. So thankful she was able to help me out and left plenty of details in the note along with many pictures too. Would definitely recommend her.”
About: Since I was five years old when we adopted our family puppy, I have been involved in taking care of dogs. I have also over 350 hours of shelter volunteer experience in walking dogs, giving medications, and obedience training. Since I am hoping to be a vet one day, I am always wanting to meet new animals and give them the best care possible! I am currently a full-time student at Carleton and thus have classes and other extracurricular activities throughout the day. However, I have chunks of time throughout the day that could be devoted to pet care. If I am pet-sitting for you, your animal will be my priority! I do not have the capacity to care for your pet in my house, but I can provide whatever level of care you need in for your pet in your own home! If you need me to stay the night, I can do that. I am a detail-oriented person so whatever your pet needs I feel confident I can provide it.
“Brittany was very patient with my crazy lab. She's clearly well loved by animals. My lab ran to her and jumped up on her but she was calm and understanding. She waited until he calmed down and only then walked him.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. I have a cat whom I rescued several years ago. I’ve cared for several dogs and I’m great at keeping animals comfortable and feeling loved! I work full-time but I am available most weekends and evenings. If need be, I can leave during my lunch break to provide your pet with a quick potty break! I am sure to follow the rules of each owner since they know what’s best. I am a huge cuddler, so if your dog or cat needs some extra love, you can count on me. I’ve also had experience with admistering medication to dogs as well.
“I felt very lucky to connect with Megan. I needed someone to let Duke out after some last minute changes to my travel plans. She was easy to communicate with and worked with my changing schedule to make sure my dog was cared for. She updated me with pictures and I could see he was comfortable and loving his walk. I would highly recommend her for any Rover needs!”

About: Hi! My name is Alyssa, and I’m a pre-med college student who is responsible, reliable, and passionate about caring for animals. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’ve had my own dog for 11 years, giving me firsthand experience with daily care, exercise, feeding routines, and providing plenty of love and attention. I am dedicated to ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own dog. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Im currently off school for the summer so I have lots of spare time! When I return to school in August, I will be available early mornings and evenings to check on your fur babies :) I have a fenced in backyard and allow my dog to roam both the house and backyard freely. I leave her food out so she can nibble on it throughout the day. She is potty trained to go to the back door when she needs!
About: I would love to meet your pups and make sure they have a wonderful experience. My dog is my life, and I will treat your furry baby’s the same way! I love all dogs of all shapes and sizes and enjoy taking them to the park and even for walks or giving them all the belly rubs that they could ask for. I have a large fully fenced back yard with tones of space to run and play. I will make sure to make them feel comfortable and safe. I look forward to meeting your furry babies!
About: I have always connected deeply with animals & genuinely enjoy caring for other living beings. I have always had pets growing up, of all types and ages. I am a part time student and work part time in retail. My schedule is flexible and I am local to the Huntington area. I am trying to keep things around the Ritter Park/Downtown area but am willing to travel small distances for an additional fee. I make sure my dogs are walked daily, all my animals get a special dinner every night (wet food), regular vet appointments, basic grooming, comfortable places to lounge, toys, clean drinking water.
About: I have been caring for dogs most of my life. Now thatI am retired I am doing it full time. I can care for puppies through senior dogs. I even have a couple of special needs dogs who get along wonderfully. I only keep 2 dogs at a time so I can give them all personalized attention. I also bake all natural treats for them (that really helps with training 😂) I would love to have you for an afternoon, day, week or even if you just need a walk. Let's meet and see how your pup takes to me. I look forward to our first visit. I am home so they will not be left alone or kept in a kennel all day. They will be part of our daily activities. Daily routines may include multiple walks in the park, romping in the fenced back yard, socializing with other dogs, and playing fetch. Lets not forget nap time!!!
“I could not be more pleased with Katie. She is so much more than you can expect from a perfect stranger. I would recommend her to any of my friends with pets, and I am using her again. Do not hesitate to contact her for availability.”
About: I have been taking care of neighbors’ dogs since I was 10. I worked at a student run pet grooming program for 2 years, done in-home pet sitting for 6 years, and have worked at a pet hydrotherapy center for 3 years. I have experience with all dogs, and specifically senior dogs and dogs with special needs. I am a grad student at Marshall and am able to spend time with your pet around my class schedule during the week and I am typically not gone for more than 6 hours at a time. I am more flexible on the weekends. In my client’s home I am mindful of baby gates/dog gates and keeping them closed when instructed. I am also mindful of stairs and help the dog up and down if needed. I make sure the dog is as comfortable as possible while their owners are away by keeping to their usual routine as much as possible!
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have cared for pets for most of my life. I’ve also helped friends and family with pet sitting on multiple occasions. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I attend school Monday–Friday and am available after 3 PM on weekdays. I’m completely free on weekends, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to give your pet the attention they deserve! I treat every pet like they’re my own. I stick to their normal routine, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure they get lots of love and attention while also keeping them safe and supervised. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, clean, and mindful of their space. I’m happy to send updates and pictures so you always know your pet is happy!
About: I’ve taken care of all of kinds of animals from the age of 13 until present time of the age of 28. I help my friend at her boarding business. I have fostered and rescued many animals. I provide all the love and attention any animal deserves. I have a 6 year old chocolate lab who loves animals of any kind, and a 3 legged cat who’s super playful with other animals as well. As of right now I am not employed so I have endless hours to provide, care for, love on, and play with your fur baby/babies. I have a large unfenced yard at the side of my apartment where I take my dog to potty and play. I also have a friend who owns a dog boarding business with a fenced in yard where I take my dog to socialize and play with other pups as well. My dog free runs at home but if your baby is crate trained I can easily crate them to their needs/routine.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Chesapeake 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 128 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Chesapeake. 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 Chesapeake. 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 Chesapeake.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
