Peter has been so great with my dog Milo! He has a history of anxiety and is not always great with other dogs, but Peter has been so patient with him despite his quirks! I look forward to continue booking him for future care needs :)

Erin and her family are great! They’re punctual, reliable, and responsive. They did a great job of taking care of my dog. They came to meet her and run through her walk routine prior to the day of her being walked, and were fabulous all around. Can’t recommend them enough!

Hilary was great with our pug! She was reliable and provided updates and was even able to get our girl back in her crate after her walk, when she can be a bit stubborn. She was communicative and made booking and everything easy! Will definitely book Hilary again!

Patrick has been a tremendous help with my dog’s midday walk. He is reliable, shows up even when it is raining, and gives me helpful updates so I know what has happened on the walk. Definitely recommend him.

Jolene and Squiggy give two paws up! Erin did an amazing job helping us with the pups as we did engagement photos. (Not the usual dog walk!) She helped them look at the camera and squeezed the squeaky ball/called their names. Erin is so helpful and easy going and we loved having her help with this special event! Our dogs love her.

About: I’ve been caring for a pet dog for the past year and have gained experience with daily routines like walks/runs, feeding, playtime, and making sure dogs feel comfortable and cared for. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always try to create a calm, positive environment for them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m available during all of the days and times marked as available on my Rover calendar. I keep my calendar up to date so owners can rely on my availability. When I accept a booking, I make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. Creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets is very important to me. Over the past year caring for a dog, I’ve learned how important routines, patience, and attentiveness are for helping pets feel secure and relaxed. I’ll always follow instructions carefully and make sure your pet is treated with care, attention, and respect.

About: Hi everyone, Its Jordan and my fiancé Laure. We are life long dog owners and lovers! No dogs here with us but Jaxon the staffordshire terrier and Chief the miniature pinscher are my mom’s dogs that we love to have over when we aren't boarding other dogs. Jax and Chief enjoy long walks, lots of fetch, and big ol’ bowls of water of course! We always make sure to get a good training on our walks to reinforce good habits! :) When we’re not with Jaxon and Chief, we love to meet other ones. Old or young, fast or slow, your pet is welcome here. :) Between the two of us, someone is always home. Never more than 3-4 hours max away if need be so your pup is in great hands. We make sure to accommodate each owner and pet to best suit their needs. Special care is always taken for elderly and/or easily spooked pets and plenty of walks and sniffs for the more energetic! Daily feeding and walks are planned around our daily schedules so flexibility is a breeze!

Keyla was an absolute delight! I can tell both my dog and my cat truly enjoyed her presence. She managed my handful of a high-energy mutt with ease, communicated well, sent great photos, and took perfect care of my home as well. I will definitely book her again in the future! My pup is going to sleep so well after his run with Keyla!

Kate went above and beyond for my dog Frida! When she arrived to take her on a walk, she found Frida had made a mess in the crate and having tummy problems. Kate stayed over an hour and actually met me at the vet with Frida. I cannot say enough good things about Kate. She is such a kind and understanding caretaker for our sick puppy! Thank you Kate!!

I didn’t realize I could be even more grateful for Vianca, but here I am!! She took the absolute best care of my best bud during an insane heat wave, even going as far as to bring him a cool bandana to wear during his walk so he wouldn’t overheat. You can’t teach this type of intuitive, thoughtful care - she is simply magic! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Ann is an exceptional dog walker. I have an elderly dog and Ann was very attuned to how she was feeling, how much she wanted to walk, and just followed her lead. Ann is a great communicator, sending me numerous pictures and written updates after each walk (three times a day). She is organized, friendly, is great with dogs, and makes sure everyone is on the same page. She coordinated with my cousin where my dog was staying. Rosie was very happy and relaxed when I went to pick her up.

FAQs for Dog Walking - College Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in College Park on Rover is $24.42 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 15,952 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across College Park. 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 College Park. 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 College Park.

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 College Park. 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.
