I had booked Jennifer to walk my dog Daisy, twice a day for 5 days. On the first day, Daisy wouldn't come near her. She then spent the whole time coaxing her and on the second day she was able to put the leash around her. She is very gentle and a sweetheart. Little did she knew I was watching her on camera ? I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER

About: I understand your pets are your babies and they need to be treated as such! I’m ready to do any task so matter how small or silly it may seem with my full heart and I can’t wait to meet everyone’s fur babies!! I also have extensive training and research in animal behavior and how to react to it and occasionally work at a doggy daycare. And I have grown up around animals and know how to handle reptiles, birds, rabbits, and other common pets. Pets are always welcome in my weekly routine! I’m a university student and I have classes 2 days during the week so I have plenty of time to take care of your babies! I also take care of the pets of my family and friends whenever they’re away and have boarded and does a home stay! I would approach the pet calmly using a calm voice and positive reinforcement to provide a loving relationship with them. I would also do everything I could to make them more comfortable, whether it be doing something silly that’s in their daily routine or give them extra special attention. I will always try my best to help them feel safe and taken care of!

Kevin is so sweet, calm and accommodating. I have a very energetic standard poodle that tends to get over excited on walk but with Kevin she's so chill and is able to get her wiggles out with out acting crazy. We will definitely keep using Kevin whenever he's available!

About: I've been living in a pet-filled household since I was born. I've seen 3 puppies grow into seniors, and I'm currently living in a 3 pet household: senior black lab, baby doodle, and a bossy tuxedo cat. I've learned the work of taking care of a pet since I was little, but more so in the last several years I've really taken on a lot more responsibility. I love caring for pets and learning their own unique habits and personalities. I'm currently a full-time college student and looking to use this as a way to make some money while in college. I have a car and no problem with transportation, my schedule varies but I'm almost always available to take care of any pets. In my own home, we have a big backyard as well as a fenced in patio if the pets want to sit outside. They have their own crates and food bowls as well, although sometimes they sneak into the crate together. I'm someone who follows directions to a T, and if I don't understand something I will always clarify.

About: I love dogs more than I love actual people. About 3 years ago I started working at a doggy daycare and I had the best experience. Apart from that I've had dogs since I was born. I know how to give professional baths and some types of haircuts. I used to train dogs but I haven't had much experience. I take care of my own pets all day. When I move I won't have a job so if I need to stay with your dog all day I can accommodate that I have a lot of experience handling all types of dogs including reactive. So I can change the way I work to give your dog what they need

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 — 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 I’m very attentive and detail-oriented, and I follow care instructions exactly as requested. I pay close attention to a dog’s 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 they’re being cared for while you’re away. I’m 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. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a consistent schedule, whether that’s 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 dog’s comfort level. I adjust pace and distance based on age, energy, and health. In your home, I’m 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 — changes in appetite, energy, or mood — I communicate promptly. I’m 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.

My experience includes feeding routines, administering basic care, walking dogs on leash, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, calm, and loved while their owners are away. I always pay attention to each pet’s personality and adjust my care to match their needs.

About: I have had pets my entire life. I also have Veterinary and Grooming experience. I believe pets should be treated as members of our family and given the love and attention they deserve. I know that traveling and being away from home can be stressful for pets as well as their owners. That's why I take extra care to make sure everybody has peace of mind during these occasions. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, birds, turtles, hedgehogs, aquatic frogs, and even Bengal Tigers! I am available 24/7 for your pets. I understand that everybody has a different schedule and it’s important to keep things routine and on time while caring for your babies. I offer petsitting, walks, drop-ins and/or overnight visits in your home-where the pet feels safe and secure. I realize animals are sensitive, so keeping them safe in their own environment is crucial!

About: I have taken care of all size dogs. Often pet sitting for friends and family I have owned 3dogs 2 birds. I am big dog person. However cats love me sometimes without me trying! But when I’m pet sitting I spend time making sure they get good food exercise and loving! I can work any schedule weekends nights or midday etc, into my routine especially during summer. If you have a question or request just ask! I always create safe areas for pets often making sure to close any unnecessary areas or areas with valuables.

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 things🪴that don’t 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 you’d like to be notified. Keep in mind I answer as soon as possible but can be busy actually caring for your pup before I’ll 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 dog’s best interest at heart and their safety is my first priority!

I love all animals and would be more than happy to spend all of my time with them! I have completely open availability for you and your fur babies! I am open to morning or night bookings, as well as staying overnight if needed. My cat Bug is my world. I make sure that she is well fed and always has a full bowl of water (she LOVES water). I make sure she knows that she is the most loved kitty and will never allow my social life or plans to impede on my care for her. I would treat your pet the same! Having a pet is a commitment and a responsibility and I make sure that I am living up to that!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Christmas

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Christmas on Rover is $16.65 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 4,756 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 your Christmas. 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 Christmas.

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 Christmas. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 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.
