“Emily was super sweet towards my two pups. She has an obvious love for animals. My two pups really enjoyed her visit and were very comfortable around her. That’s always a good sign, in my opinion. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Emily was SUPER patient with us and was amazing with our pups! Our pups aren’t the easiest to walk but she was super kind and accommodating. Can’t wait to use her again!”
About: I love caring for all kinds of animals! 🐾 I’m comfortable looking after pets with all sorts of personalities, routines, and special needs. Whether it’s taking an energetic dog on a walk, giving a cat some much needed cuddles, keeping small pets fed and comfortable, or simply making sure an animal has company while their person is away, I’m happy to help! I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and always do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for. ❤️ I have time for work I’m looking to make enough money to move out of my parents house and be able to afford basic living expenses I spend a lot of time taking care of my pets. I walk the dogs, clean up their poop, I also feed them multiple times a day. I also spend several hours a day holding or cuddling my clingy cat and caring for her needs as well.
“Ella helped take care of my anxious Australian shepherd while we were away for the weekend. When she came for a meet and greet,y dog warmed up to her almost immediately! She was incredibly reliable, arriving on time to each walk and took such good care of our pup while we were away. I would definitely recommend her and would book her again :)”
About: After my experience working at a boarding kennel, my friends, family, and colleagues looked to me for pet care. Ever since I’ve been walking, feeding, and looking after animals of all different sizes for my people. I’ve loved being able to take care and spend time with animals and making sure people feel comfortable knowing their pets are safe and loved with me. I’ve distributed insulin, eye drops, and oral medicine, and I can bathe/brush/clip nails as well. Starting the 28th of November, I’ll be off all day Sunday and Saturday. On weekdays I’ll be able to check in before 8am and after 5:30pm. I feed and prepare food based on feeding instructions, clean up after pet made messes. I walk on designated routes for any desired amount of time. I try to give as much snuggles if the pet is comfortable, if not I respect animals boundaries
“Daniel was fantastic with Jack! He was always on time and super reliable during the two weeks I was away. With Glenn working 6/10 shifts, Dan’s daily walks gave Jack a much-needed break and helped us out a lot. We’re really grateful for the care and consistency— we’ll definitely be using him again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was in high school, so I have over 10 years of experience pet sitting and caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve always genuinely loved being around animals and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, keeping up with routines, and of course giving plenty of attention and cuddles! I treat every dog I care for like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I work remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention and cuddles. Since I’m home most of the day, your pet will have lots of company and I can easily adjust my schedule to accommodate their normal routine and needs. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets can feel right at home. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely enjoy plenty of outdoor time, play, and potty breaks throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, sleeping, and daily routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable while they’re away from home. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles!
“Lisa is absolutely amazing! My dog adores her! I know he is in great hands each time she has him. She is so attentive and follows the directions left. Lisa will always be my number one choice for Charlie!”
“David has done an excellent job with Zelda this week. She looks forward to his arrival and is excited to go for a walk with him. We appreciate his care with Zelda and his flexibility with his time.”
“Melianna was a great help & went out of her way to celebrate Rosie’s birthday. She was very attentive to our dogs and we would hire her when needed in the future. Pat & Art Chase”
“Sarahi was incredible with my dog Eisley. My dog was immediately comfortable with her and was excited for walk time everyday. Would absolutely book her again and the only reason she is not helping any longer is because I am moving.”
About: I have been a vet tech and animal educator in the past. I’m very flexible with scheduling, and understand last minute things come up. I am happy to work with whatever pet needs you have! For locals I can pop in as often as needed, I’m happy to be flexible with your needs. My availability right now is wide open. I am comfortable with pets that need medical care, pets that are less comfortable with people/strangers/ other animals, and the less common pets. I believe in full transparency, and will provide your pets with the care you would give them yourself.
About: I’m new to rover but a lifelong pet care provider. I’ve primarily cared for dogs and cats. I’ve some experience with exotics like birds and reptiles as well. I’ve cared for and raised dogs and cats from puppies/kittens to geriatrics and their many potential extra care needs. I pride myself on bringing a balance of experience and calm but engaging energy for all pets. I have experience caring for dogs as small as 7lbs and as large as 90lbs. I’ve provided care for multi-pet and multi-species homes. I pride myself on being the most popular person at the dog park (with dogs, I’m not there for the people). I’m happy to provide additional care to animals that need it for medical or non-medical reasons. Every person and every pet has their own personality and quirks, so I’m happy to learn and provide the highest quality care that I can. I’m currently open to pet care across many times and days. So if you need a recurring or spontaneous pet care, I am happy to work with you. I am experienced with crate training and can crate your dogs if needed. Every home has different dynamics and rules that I want to respect and make your pets experience with me as comfortable and fun as possible. If you have any special requirements, safety concerns, or additional accommodations, then I am always happy to work with pets and their owners for the best possible situation.
“Reese is absolutely wonderful with Jojo! Reliable, great communication, and best if all Jojo loves her 🐾💕 It was a leap of faith trusting a person to come to our home like this but I'm so glad we did!”
“Brianna is amazing! She's very good at communicating and will walk rain, snow, or shine which Cocoa loves!! She respects our home and more importantly, she's GREAT with all dogs 😊”
About: As a friendly cat-sitter for family friends around the area, and cat owner for years, I know the responsibilities of caring for one. These include changing the litter, understanding feeding schedules, playing, etc. I have taken care of cats from all stages of life! Additionally, I have taken care of friends’ dogs while they are out of town by feeding, walking, and playing with them! Your pet will be cared for like my own, and rest assured they will be loved, content, fed, and safe while you are gone! I am available for last-minute holiday visits! I’m currently a full time student and work a part time job as an intern at FCPS. As for availability, please message me, I am very flexible. I can assure you your dogs will stay active, fed, groomed, and cared for in every way! As far as cats I have one at home so I will adjust to the cats’ personality by giving them space if need be. Additionally, I will make sure they are clean, fed, and hydrated!

Melissa was fantastic! She took Archie (my dog) on walks and was very mindful of his needs. Asked very important questions prior to initial walk and I felt safe letting her walk my pup. She was also very accommodating to last minute scheduling, which I was very grateful for. Definitely recommend!
Emily was the best with our pups! She’s super attentive to their needs and makes sure they’re well taken care of. I also really appreciate her detailed notes and photos, makes me feel reassured that the pups are in good hands! Will definitely book again, she’s a true animal lover and shows it!
We booked another service with Paige for several days and she took the absolute best care of our pup! She provided consistent updates, was on time for each visit, and followed his daily routine without difficulty. We were traveling for holidays, so our minds were even more at ease knowing our pup was happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend booking with Paige!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Clifton on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 15,051 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Clifton. 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 Clifton. 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 Clifton.

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 Clifton. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
