Corrine is great! Seems to really care about the animals, and was focused on making the experience easy, safe and convenient for the whole family. We will be looking to use her again!

About: I have been taking care of dogs all my life. I grew up with two and currently have a Husky and Terrier. On the days I am in the office (Typically M-W) I will only be available for drop ins/walks after 2pm. I can do early mornings or after 2pm. When I am WFH, I am available all day. Friends and family over the years have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, stop in and check on them for a simple belly scratch and potty break, all the way to staying the night to give them piece of mind while they're gone. I currently work full time. M-W I am able to stop into clients homes after I get off work, after 3. Thursday and Friday I work from home so besides meetings, I am able to drop in at any time of the day. Saturdays and Sundays I am pretty flexible as well :) Each client is different but I will learn what is best for their pet when I meet them. I won't crate their pet unless asked. Going outside with pets when they're out doing their business, and keeping them on a leash to keep them safe is my standard for caring for anyones pet. The parents know best and I'd follow their rules.

About: After spending 15 wonderful years taking care of my beagle Bailey, I know how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your dog as much as you do. I’m currently earning my Master’s degree online in Mental Health Counseling while completing clinical work, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I’m able to dedicate quality time to walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding routines, and companionship. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in an apartment community with a dedicated dog park just a short walk from my home, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. I also have access to my mother’s home, which features a large fenced yard and pool area with no resident pets, offering additional space for supervised outdoor play if appropriate. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and preferences to ensure every pet receives personalized care and attention.

About: I grew up with Labs and currently have two of my own (both 11 years old) so I’m well versed in everything from puppy energy to senior dog care. I’ve dog sat for friends and family over the years through both check-ins and overnight house sitting, so I’m comfortable adapting to different routines and personalities. I work from home full-time, so I have flexibility most days of the week including weekends. I offer drop-in check-ins, dog walking, and overnight house sitting — and since I’m home throughout the day, last-minute requests are usually manageable. Feel free to reach out and I’m happy to work around your schedule. I treat every client’s home with respect and stick to whatever routine works best for your dog. I work from home so for house sitting I’m around consistently throughout the day — your dog won’t be alone for long stretches. All walks are on leash and I pay close attention to body language and surroundings. I’m happy to follow any specific feeding schedules, medications, or routines you have in place.

About: I have a black Labrador named onyx at home. I have been taking care of her for 3 years now and have loved every second of it. I am doing this gig to pay my way through school which also involves wildlife. I am an avid walker that loves to get exercise so taking your dog along on the adventure would be my pleasure. I can stay attentive to your animal for long periods of time and adjust to your needs! I love animals of all kinds and learning about different breeds of dogs is of interest to me. Let me know if you want to have me come sit, walk, or even drop in to play and keep your pet company! Thanks for your consideration!

About: I’ve had a total of 4 dogs. I love them so much. I am an animal lover. I’m sad that my dogs are not here at school with me so in honor of them, I would love to help you out by taking care of your pet. I am at my apartment a lot. I only leave for classes, I’m a student at Ball state. I can take care of pets throughout the day. I have a very flexible schedule. I will spend time with the pet, take it out, feed it, love it, and take care of it. I love to walk dogs too!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a little girl. I currently don’t have any pets of my own and also have a lot of extra time on my hands, which makes me a perfect candidate for your next pet sitter! I’m currently between jobs so I have plenty of time for walks, drop ins, belly rubs, scratches, playtime, feedings, and can even board your animal at my house if needed! I have a large fenced in yard for any animals requiring boarding. I keep my eyes on the animals at all times while outside to make sure they’re safe, but can easily crate your dog if preferred. I am equipped for drop in visits or longer extended visits too. I currently have no pets of my own in my house.

About: My family always had a dog, and when I moved out on my own, the first thing I did was get my own! I now have a chihuahua/papillon rescue named Jorah Borkmont, who loves to play with others. I make my own hours out of the home, so I will only be out of my home for a few hours per day, and I can return when necessary (we have a dog camera set up). My husband works at home most days, so he will also be here to care for your dog. We live in a townhouse with an unfenced yard, but do have tie-outs and plush grass to relax and potty on. There are safe sidewalks and a new neighborhood in the building process for long walks twice per day.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for many years, and I’ve also helped care for my aunt’s dogs, who she groomed professionally. My patient and gentle nature allows me to connect with dogs of all personalities — from energetic pups to shy or nervous ones. I’m attentive to routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or basic training reinforcement. I follow instructions closely and am happy to help with commands, leash manners, or gentle encouragement for anxious dogs. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and plenty of love, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is an important part of my daily life, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need. I plan walks, visits, and playtime around your pet’s routine, and I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and enrichment activities. I’m available most days after 3 PM, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can adjust for regular visits or last-minute needs whenever possible, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I provide loving, attentive care in your pet’s own home, following your routines and instructions closely. I offer walks, playtime, enrichment, and medication if needed, making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Brooke, a proud cat and dog mom with over 5 years of personal pet care experience, plus more than a year of professional dog sitting. I’ve personally trained and raised two German Shepherds — so I’m no stranger to handling energetic, intelligent, or challenging breeds, and I understand the importance of reading body language, managing behavior, and creating a safe, loving environment. I’m known for being reliable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, medication, or just companionship, I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. As of September 9th, I will be in school Wednesday–Friday from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Pets in my care may have some alone time during those hours, but I always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and have everything they need before I leave. Outside of school hours, I’m fully available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnights! • Calm, patient handling, especially with nervous or excitable pets • Experience with basic training and reinforcement • Detailed updates if you want to hear how your fur baby is doing •Respectful, tidy care in your home

FAQs for Dog Walking - Clarkston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Clarkston on Rover is $27.75 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 3,325 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Clarkston. 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 Clarkston. 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 Clarkston.

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 Clarkston. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
