About: Iâve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a little kid. Animal care, or animals in general have always been a major passion of mine.

About: I offer dependable dog care focused on walks and drop-in visits, and I take the time to get to know each dog and their routine. I understand that every dog is different â some love long walks and playtime, while others just want a calm visit, food, and a little company. I have experience with: Daily walks and playtime Drop-in visits for feeding, fresh water, and companionship Puppies, including patience with training routines and leash walking Senior dogs who need slower walks, gentle care, and extra attention Giving basic medications and supplements when needed Iâm very attentive and detail-oriented, and I follow care instructions exactly as requested. I pay close attention to a dogâs behavior and energy and will always reach out if something feels off. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and safe, and that you feel confident knowing theyâre being cared for while youâre away. Iâm happy to send updates and photos so you can relax and enjoy your day. et care fits naturally into my daily routine. I offer walks and drop-in visits around my work schedule, mainly mornings, afternoons, and early evenings, as well as weekends. Because I do this part time, I keep my availability realistic and only accept bookings I can fully commit to. This allows me to be punctual, unhurried, and fully present during each visit rather than rushing between appointments. Iâm happy to work with pet parents to find a consistent schedule, whether thatâs regular weekly walks or occasional drop-ins. I also understand that plans can change, and I do my best to be flexible when possible. I treat every home and every pet with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. For walks and drop-in visits, I focus on safety, consistency, and following your instructions exactly. Before each visit, I review feeding, walking, and care details so nothing is missed. During walks, I use secure leashes and harnesses as provided and stay aware of surroundings, weather, and your dogâs comfort level. I adjust pace and distance based on age, energy, and health. In your home, Iâm mindful of routines and boundaries. I make sure doors and gates are secure, food and water are refreshed, and your dog has calm, positive interaction. I keep visits unhurried so your pet feels relaxed and cared for, not rushed. I also pay close attention to behavior and well-being. If I notice anything unusual â changes in appetite, energy, or mood â I communicate promptly. Iâm happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and comfortable. My goal is simple: your pet feels secure, and you feel confident trusting me with your home and your dog.

About: I have worked at dog daycare for a long while and there we were taught professionally how to give medications. I learned behaviors that help me today in understanding your fur babies needs and wants! I have experienced new ways of learning with any dog of any size and personality. Plans for the weekend? Have fun while ensuring your pet is also having a good time, because nothing makes me happier than a smiling dog! Or maybe you travel for work during the week and need someone to stay behind, keep an eye on the fur friends, let out the dog for potty breaks keep the kitty litter fresh and your prized pets the attention they deserve. I am available for drop ins and house sitting, so I may take care of other living thingsđŞ´that donât have paws as well. Like watering the plants, or something unique like needing me to start the car every now and then to keep the battery upbeat ready for use when you arrive. Or maybe a last minute night out? I work part time in the day and have the rest of the day to spend with your pup. What a great way to end the day and know no better way than to spend time! I am very attentive and observant so your pets will have my undivided attention. As I find them too interesting to turn away. I follow the instructions given to me about your pets feeding of medication methods detailed to ensure their diet remains the same when you get back. As well as the same medicating procedure as dogs love routine. I multitask and use resources to alert me of frequent potty breaks while house sitting (like seniors, puppies or health conditions) I personally cannot bring myself to leave the environment dirty for animals as them sitting in messiness can be a health hazard! I send multiple proofs of me doing the job asked of me (like photos or videos) to give you peace of mind while you are away. Depending on how often youâd like to be notified. Keep in mind I answer as soon as possible but can be busy actually caring for your pup before Iâll actually have time to snap a photo of us having a swell time. Sometimes both hands are needed for animals, especially larger ones! I have your dogâs best interest at heart and their safety is my first priority!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Christmas is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $7 and $17 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 petâs 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 4,798 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Christmas. 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 Christmas. 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 dogâs 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 Christmas 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 Christmas. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
