Patricia is wonderful. She is flexible with scheduling, fast work her responses and gives good updates on my pup. She's is great with large dogs and wasn't deterred by my greyhound’s squirrel drive.

Vanessa was great! We booked her for a last minute dog walk and she was super fast to respond and very accommodating to our fairly high-maintenance requests. We will definitely use her again!

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds—dogs, cats, rabbits, sheep, goats, chickens, and turkeys! Caring for pets has always been second nature to me. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I love taking the time to make each one feel safe, happy, and loved while their people are away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I plan my days around feeding, playtime, and cuddles. Most days I can check in within 6 hours, occasionally up to 8. Keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable is always my top priority. I follow each pet’s routine closely, providing feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. I keep the home safe and tidy, sending updates so owners know their pets are happy.

About: I grew up with dogs and a cat, and often took neighborhood pet sitting jobs. I also worked with small animals on a local farm for several years, and currently live in a house with two dogs, who I help care for when their owners are away. Over the past six years or so, I’ve done pet and house sitting for various clients, and it’s been a fantastic experience! I look forward to meeting your pets and helping give you the time away you deserve! I work local to Chattanooga as a freelance editor and artist, so I’m able to work from anywhere! My schedule is flexible most days, so please don’t hesitate to reach out. I have plenty of experience caring for big dogs, small dogs, and cats, and am counting down the days until I’m able to have one of my own. Sadly, I’m not in a position to bring any pets home to my current residence, but that means I have lots of extra attention I can give to your pets while you’re away! Your routines and specific-to-you needs regarding your home and pets are important, and my goal is to make sure those needs are provided for. Whether you’re gone for the night on business or spending a week on vacation, don’t hesitate to reach out! I prioritize open communication, and you will receive regular updates while you’re away. Excited to hear from you!

About: Having grown up with dogs and cats, I’ve learned to work with different personalities. A house just doesn't feel like a home without at least one cuddly pet. My availability varies, depending on the time of year, but I do try to accommodate as much as I can. PS I have also helped care for goats & chickens, if your family has other pet needs...just ask. I am working mom, typically free after noon throughout the week. I am open to long term, set schedules, emergency drop ins, last minute needs. Just ask. I don't currently provide any boarding services. Please be aware of that before asking if I can bring your cat or dog to my home for care. Thank you for understanding.

About: I grew up with multiple dogs and enjoy playing with and caring for neighbors’ and friends’ dogs as needed. I don’t own a dog at present but that’s only because a couple of our cats are really particular :) I’m flexible most of the time and willing to prioritize the care of your pet and would enjoy the chance to befriend your dog or cat. I am often called a pet whisperer and am happy to spend whatever time necessary to build trust with your furry friends so that I can provide the care they need in your absence.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog for almost 17 years and I have also watched friends and family’s dogs and find much joy in doing it! I love learning about what makes each pet unique and what they love. I go on lots of walks in general so doing it with your loved and adorable dogs would make it that much better! At the end of the day, my goal is to make every owner’s life easier and keep their pets safe and happy! I am currently in college and playing softball but I have plenty of time between and after classes to walk and care for your pets! My main services that I will be providing are walking and drop-in visits! I live in an apartment so I cannot have pets in my own home but I’m open to going to someone else’s!

About: I've grown up around animals and have been caring for pets since I was young. I've helped friends, family, and neighbors with pet sitting, feeding, walking, and giving pets attention while they're away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and love staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely enjoy. I'm a college student in nursing school, so I'm responsible, attentive, and love to give love! I truly have a soft spot for all animals and treat every pet like my own. I’m currently working part-time, but I have a flexible schedule and can easily fit dog walks into my day. I’m available most days and can adjust to your pet’s needs. I do work occasional night shifts, so I may be resting during parts of the day, but I’m still very open and flexible with timing. Since I focus on dog walking, I prioritize safety, patience, and building trust with every pet. I take time to make animals feel comfortable and pay attention to their behavior and needs. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for during every walk.

Ms Kimberly has been a Godsend. My pup is not very trusting and very protective of her “space”. Kimberly was able to manage the situation and get Tesse out for an afternoon break. It gave me peace of mind knowing that she was being well taken care of. Tesse and I are relocating and Kimberly provided video and advice to Tesse’s next Rover Pal. If you are looking for an experienced and confident Rover Pal, Kimberly is who you want.

About: I have a genuine love for animals, and concern for their health, happiness, and well being. Animals are an absolute passion for me. I am a very compassionate and caring individual and will care for your dog and pets as if they are my own. I have pet sitted for 10 years+ and am familiar with the basic needs of animals. Non-smoker. Have no allergies to animal hair. My schedule is very flexible. I am responsible and take the trust of my clients seriously. I currently work from home so I will accommodate to your times/needs on any given day! I am able to house sit or stop by for visits every day of the week. Taking care of animals is more than just making sure their bowl is full or that the dog is walked, and the litter box is scooped…it’s giving them your time and energy and making sure that they are completely happy and healthy. Nothing tops our fur babies, and whether they’re mine or yours, I will always treat them like family❤️

FAQs for Dog Walking - Collegedale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Collegedale on Rover is $21.09 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 792 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Collegedale. 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 Collegedale. 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 Collegedale.

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 Collegedale. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
