About: I have hands-on experience working in a kennel, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. In addition, I’ve dog sat for neighbors and friends, so I’m comfortable stepping into a pet’s routine and making them feel at home. What sets me apart is my experience with special care needs. My own dog has epilepsy, so I’m confident giving oral medications and staying attentive to a pet’s health, behavior, and any changes that might need attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet’s wellbeing, and I take that responsibility seriously. I aim to provide calm, reliable, and compassionate care so both you and your pet feel comfortable and stress-free. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to plan my schedule around visits, walks, and check-ins. I’m flexible and can accommodate mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on your pet’s needs. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free by sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I respect your space while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I pay close attention to details like feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any specific behaviors or needs. My goal is to create a calm, reliable environment so your pet feels safe and you have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Christa was great! I've only used Rover twice, but I'm very happy with my experience so far. Christa was great with my dog, Huck. She was very communicative and sent me pictures and updates. My dog seemed happy and well-cared for when I got home. I would definitely recommend Christa to other pet owners. I hope this is helpful!”

About: I don’t discriminate against any type of breed. I care for them as they are my own . There is no problem for me in giving medications, if needed. I currently work full time . They would be taken care of in the morning, if needed at lunch time . Once done my normal work day, then I would go back to them for however long was needed . In the clients home : We would play, go for walks if the dog enjoys them . I like to snuggle and sit with them, I will converse with them . I always make sure they have fresh water .

About: Hi my name is Ashley and I offer more than just a walk or drop in; I provide hands-on experience with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments through volunteering, fostering, and having my own dog. I am comfortable with high-energy puppies to seniors requiring a gentle touch, and I understand that every dog has a unique personality and specific needs. I have an understanding of a dogs body language and behavior. I can anticipate the needs and manage reactivity, making sure your dog is in a stress-free environment. I am physically capable and experienced in handling large, powerful breeds. Whether your dog is a puller or not I have the strength and technique to keep them safe and happy. I tailor my interactions based on whether your dog is anxious, timid, or over-excited. I treat every dog Im with like they are my own with love and respect. I believe its very important for the animal to trust me and the owner. I am a stay at home mom and love being around animals. My availability is open to your specific needs. I always try to assist anyone even on short notice. Caring for your pet in your home is something I take very seriously. Since it involves entering your residence and taking over the responsibility for your pet, I believe that having a trusting relationship with the pet and owner is crucial. I always like to have a meet and greet this way we see how the your pet reacts to me and it gives me the chance to learn your routine.

About: I work at a pet care facility and take care of many different types of dog and cat breeds. Ever since I was a kid I knew I wanted to devote my life to taking care of pets and wildlife. Now that summer has started I have more free time on my hands and I want to spend it caring for dogs and cats! I work full time caring for dogs and cats but I am definitely available throughout the week on days I don’t work. I like keeping busy and this is the best way to do so! I am very comfortable caring for pets in my home and my clients home. I moved down south from New Jersey so i do not have any pets at home currently! So there is no issue with me having dogs or cats to care for!

“Kevin was prompt to responding to my request for a dog walker. On the same day we set up a date for meet and greet. I received a text message from Kevin that he was on his way. My dog Rory is a 100 pound English Labrador and met Kevin at the door. Right away they both clicked. Kevin told me he had 2 dogs and he was very attentive to my boy. We agreed on the dates and time and I completed the process online. On the first day Kevin texted he was on his way. Rory was excited to go for his walk and was happy as evidence by running to me and wagging his tail when he came back. Every morning Kevin came, Rory met him at the door. I was very pleased with how friendly Kevin was and the attention he gave to Rory. I received 4 adorable pictures of Rory from Kevin while they were on their walks. I definitely recommend Kevin for your dog care needs. Thank you very much.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. My friends always ask me to train and teach their dogs tricks every time they get a new puppy. I have years of potty training, crate training and even party tricks experience with dogs of all sizes. I specialize in reward based training. Trust that your dog is in great hands I’m in school part time and it’s also online so I’ll have lots of free time to play and engage the puppies. I’ll also have time to room and board for as long as needed. I own a 3 floor town house with the basement repurposed to give your pup lots of free room to run around. My estate also offers long dog walk trails with doggie bags at every corner.

About: I enjoyed spending time with my cat and dog and I know that if I’m able to spend time with your animal, my joy would be no different. I’m a software engineering intern and I would like to spend my free time walking and playing with animals. They’ve been such a staple in my life and I love them. I’ve grown up always wanting to care for animals and I believe that this is the perfect way to do it. I will provide the same love and care as if they were my own.

About: I have been a pet appreciation magnet as long as I can remember. Even when I am not aiming for the attention, the pets gravitate my way, and i have scritches and belly rubs for them all. I have a rescue of my own for 6+ years now, bichon/poodle mix. Though he had a traumatic start before me, he has adjusted well and is a cuddle bug, and getting better with his socialization with new doggos. I have been a dog sitter for friends over the last 8+ years, when they go on trips. I have experience in minor training, like sit/stay/leash leading, for a few breeds up to 50-70 lbs (no certificates, just repitition and patience). Positive recognition of good behavior and moderate activity (to remedy the bad behavior) when you need me are what I hope to share with your furry family members. I am currently working part-time, so i can set up a schedule of regular pet attention care during part day time hours. Currently I have weekends free if weekend care is requested, though this may change if requests are light. I am working on my house to be able to provide overnight care in the future, making it care friendly for additional furry friends. I have a fenced in, good size yard, and a medium size fur baby of my own to greet stay over friends, though my house needs a little more time for prep before we are ready. I am happy to do drop-ins and day or eve walks at your home, and follow any/all your rules. I respect your needs and want to make sure your fur baby is safe and happy in my care. I keep trainer treats in my car, if we need to practice a few basic commands, as well as water and other care essentials. I have a back seat hammock/cover for the pet's safety when traveling (as needed). I also have a med to large dog kennel I can put in the way back of my SUV if that is preferred for safety and security.

About: I adore and cherish dogs of all breeds, shapes, and sizes. I am a HUGE animal lover and love all aspects of caring for animals. I am the type of person that if I see someone walking their dog across the street, I will go over to pet the dog. I've grew up caring for and loving at least one dog at a time since I was a teenager. I feel a great sense of fulfillment and purpose in knowing that I play a part in neutering the happiness and overall well being of dogs. I started off pet sitting for several family and friend's dogs over the years and found the experience very rewarding and exciting. I then moved beyond the scope of people I already knew to families within my community who requested help caring for their fur babies. I presently have many happy pet sitting and dog walking clients who can attest to my ability to provide the best care possible for their dog(s) (I do provide references) and I’m here looking to expand my customer base even more! I’m educated in obedience skills and utilize the skills I know whenever possible. I earned my master's degree in from Wilmington University in School Counseling in 2017. I am not currently using the degree. Another passion of mine is children. My caring and nurturing personality makes caring for animals rewarding and gives me a great sense of purpose.❤️ My schedule is flexible and I don't mind changing around my schedule when possible to care for furry friends. The more notice I get the better! My home is very safe for pets. I have gates in my family room that close off the room from the rest of my house should a dog need to be contained in one room; however, I can't help but resist letting dogs roam around and sleep in my bed. My yard is fenced in. I don't mind walking dogs around my neighborhood either. Client's always feel at ease when they see my house and the dogs always love their stay!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Clayton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Clayton is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $9 and $34 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 pet’s 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 7,499 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 Clayton. 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 dog’s 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 Clayton 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 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:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.
