Heather always arrives on time. She's enthusiastic about taking our Sarah on her walk, and Sarah always returns happy and exercised. I can't recommend her enough.

About: I worked at East Hills Veterinary Hospital for 1.5 years from 2023-2025. I have dog walked and pet sat (both cats and dogs) for neighbors, family, and friends for the past 3 years. My mom is a veterinarian and has taught me how to medicate cats and trim nails on mild tempered cats. I have 4 cats and 3 small dogs at home who I regularly take care of. I’m currently a college student home for the summer and living locally. I have a car and am able to create a specialized schedule based on what my clients need from me. I am flexible with timing and will only be gone for 2 weeks this summer, one at the end of July and one at the start of August. I have three small dogs and four cats at home. I’m used to feeding my pets, changing litter boxes, medicating my pets if need be, and trimming nails for cats - but only if they have a mild temper. I walk my dogs a couple times a week and play fetch with my yorkie Neville. I have a fenced in backyard and like to hang outside with them and read books and let them run around.

I’m also a Registered Veterinary Technician, who graduated from Carrington College in 2024. I have vast knowledge of health, enrichment, and the well-being of animals. I’m currently available during the week and weekends from morning to day time for pop-ins, and walks, while my schedule is open now! I’m excited about entertaining your animal(s) inside or outside, or on a walk around the neighborhood, while keeping them safe and creating a positive experience for them! I love interacting with all kinds of ages and breeds.

About: I’ve had the distinct honor and pleasure to have had 9 dogs over my lifetime. Each one taught me lessons in their own way. Several years back I was a volunteer dog walker for the Humane Society of Sonoma County for 7 years. I learned how to handle dogs of every size and temperament. Ready to get back in the game! I’m retired! Currently walking my own dog but have the time and the love to do so much more! No kids, no job = flexibility For boarding, I have a large, fully fenced backyard and a dog friendly Australian shepherd mix female who loves to play and run with other dogs.

About: I’ve spent years caring for others through nannying and customer service roles, so being dependable, attentive, and patient comes naturally to me. I have experience working at a veterinary hospital as a receptionist and have done pet sitting for a few years now. I truly love being around animals and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy staying active with walks, playtime, and giving pets plenty of companionship and affection. I'm currently working part time so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. I'm hoping to mainly focus on building my pet sitting business. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully while making sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I understand that being away from their owners can be stressful for some pets, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos.

About: I love caring for dogs. Short or long walks, playing at the park or in their yard. When they are happy it makes me happy. Feeding time or treats always on owners timeline! I am currently not working so available to be with your pet all day! Feedings, walks, whatever is needed they will feel safe and happy. I like to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I will be able to keep them on their daily schedules where they feel safe.

April is phenomenal! She is very open and listens to the needs of each dog, has excellent communication, and makes sure your pup will have a great and safe time. I was anxious to have a walker, but April put those anxieties at ease and is understanding and trustful. My pup took to her very quickly.

About: Hi there! I’m a dependable and compassionate caregiver who has spent years being the go-to person for family, friends, and neighbors whenever they need help with their fur babies, kids, homes, or even plants! I absolutely love animals and have cared for dogs, cats, fish, and small animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m available anytime—including weekdays, weekends, and holidays—and am flexible to fit your schedule. Whether your pet needs a calm companion to keep them cozy or an energetic walking buddy to burn off some zoomies, I adjust to their personality and needs with ease. My goal is always to create a fun, safe, and comforting environment—no stress, just tail wags, purrs, and happy pets! I am currently working a part-time job on weekends and attending school during the week, with classes lasting about four hours each day. Despite my academic commitments, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of free time both before and after classes, as well as in between. This allows me to be highly available throughout the week for pet sitting, dog walking, and other services. I manage my time well, and I’m committed to being punctual, responsive, and reliable. Whether you need early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. My goal is to provide consistent, high-quality care and peace of mind while you’re away. At this time, I’m unable to provide care in my own home, but I am fully comfortable and more than happy to come to your home for any pet care services you may need. Whether it’s drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight stays, or just some quality companionship for your pet, I’m here to help in a way that keeps your pets feeling safe and relaxed in their own environment. I’m an active person who loves the outdoors, so I’m always excited to take pets out for a walk—or even a run if they’re up for it! I also have a soft spot for senior pets who prefer quiet time and gentle care. Whether your furry family member is energetic and playful or laid-back and cuddly, I adjust my care style to meet their specific needs and personality. I’m very open and flexible with scheduling. If your pet has a particular feeding or medication schedule, I’m happy to follow it closely and even stop by for quick visits as needed. I treat every home with the utmost respect and always aim to leave things better than I found them—clean, tidy, and cared for. Above all, I’m committed to creating a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for your pet while giving you total peace of mind while you're away.

About: I’ve always loved animals and caring for them. I’ve taken care of multiple dogs and cats on different occasions; I love to walk, play, and give lots of care and attention to the animals that are trusted in my care. They are the best thing in this world, and I would treat your pets like family! You can rest assured that your pets will be at the forefront of my mind when booking with me. I give all my attention to each gig I have! Every pet is different, with different personalities, temperaments, schedules, etc. Of course I would love to pet, play, and be around your fur baby most of the time, but a lot of animals have boundaries, and I would honor them. If you choose to have your pet stay with us, we have a huge, fenced backyard that is just waiting for pups to play around in. I live in a house with my animal-loving family. They are adverse to getting a pet of our own, but they don’t mind pet sitting at all.

About: Hi! My name is Ashley Becker, I’m 31 years old, happily married, and a huge animal lover. I work as an Occupational Therapist for the school district, and my husband is a fitness instructor. Between the two of us, we lead an active lifestyle and love including dogs in our daily routines. We have over 15 years of experience caring for other people’s pets, and it truly brings us so much joy. We take pride in making sure your pup is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. We always follow your pet’s normal daily routine, ensuring consistency, comfort, and plenty of attention. I’m a great dog sitter because I genuinely love dogs and enjoy keeping them active and engaged with walks, outdoor play, and plenty of affection. If it’s something you normally do, I’m also happy to take your pup to the dog park or even along with me while I run errands. While you’re away, I also help keep your home in order by bringing in mail, taking out trash cans, watering plants, and assisting with anything else that helps give you peace of mind. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter, look no further, I would love to be your pup’s best friend while you’re traveling I am currently working as an Occupational therapist and work for the school. I typically work 8-1 and then go home to complete the rest of my work from there. I love going on walks and keeping your pups exercised. I love to treat the pets I watch as if they were my own! I send lots of pictures/daily updates so you are always aware of what’s going on and hopefully puts you at ease while on vacation/away from your home.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Clayton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Clayton on Rover is $22.2 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 10,573 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Clayton. 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 Clayton. 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 Clayton.

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 Clayton. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
