Madison saved the day and helped me out when our dogs daycare was closed for the day. Even though it was her first time meeting my pup, she still went above and beyond would definitely book again and recommend!!

About: **Please note I am disabled and hard of hearing. I will always prefer texts over phone calls. **Check out what your babies get up to and the pictures/videos I didn’t end up sending on our Facebook or Instagram page, Zig Zag Wag pet care! I have experience with a variety of animals, including dogs and cats, horses and livestock, rodents and reptiles, and everything from basic grooming including nail trims and baths to basic behavior training. (See safety section for further details) I have experience with basic first aid. I have pretty much free and short notice availability, thought I limit bookings on WEDNESDAYS and SUNDAYS as my days off. I have a whole zoo worth of pets and need to stop by my own house throughout the day, so any house sitting will be based on regular visits. I have reliable transportation and excellent driving skills in case of needing to transport. My vehicle has a crash tested seat belt and I have a few crash tested harnesses if you do not have one, though providing your own sized for your dog is preferred. I will not provide transport for animals other than cats or dogs and cats and small dogs must be tolerant of being crated for the ride. I am great at working with your schedule with at least 2 hours notice, but Rover does not allow easy schedule changes. If you need to reduce your visits, CANCEL the booking and REBOOK with your new dates, as once Rover confirms your booking it won’t let you reduce the current rate. In your home, I offer basic cleaning services and can ensure any messes get cleaned. I can meet many varied needs and am meticulous with following your house rules for your pets. I do not offer boarding or allow client pets at my home. I will not provide food or other consumables, though I will confirm what treats your pets can have because all good pets deserve treats. I provide basic behavior assistance such as teaching your dog that jumping on people is inappropriate, basic tricks (sit, down, paw), leash manners, but I DO NOT OFFER PAID TRAINING. I am not a certified trainer in any capacity, though I have trained many of my own animals (including rats and cats!)

About: I have taken care of animals since the age of 12. I have experience with a wide range of pets including ,but not limited to cats, horses, small dogs ranging from chihuahua, Yorkie, and pomeranian. To larger dogs like German shepherds, Rottweiler, pitbulls, and great Pyrenees hurding dogs. I also have a history of equestrian work with horses so it's made it easier to handle larger dogs. All pets deserve to be pampered and treated like family. Every time no excuse. I am a stay at home mom so I have no schedule to work around. I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. How each pet is treated will heavily depend on the owners wants and the pets needs. I will do my absolute best to keep any discussed expectations met. And I will always make sure I do what I can to help the pet have fun and be safe and comfortable. And for house sitting my goals are to meet all expectations discussed before hand and make someone's life just a bit easier .

About: I spent 12 years in the Marine Corps and decided to change career paths. After I got out I found a different passion which was training dogs. Please read what sets me apart from every one else and if you still have questions afterwards then do not hesitate to reach out to me! 
-Your pet will have 24/7 supervision and company, if an emergency arises on my end I will immediately reach out to you and let you know, I will never leave your dog unattended because I would not want someone to do it my dog, therefore I always treat visitors with the same respect. -My dog Moxie is seen and treated like one of my kids and yours will be to while under my care! -I will keep in contact at all times and update you on their visit w/photos. -I am a professional dog trainer who does boarding on the side. What this means is that your dogs will have the best care in the area when it comes to their safety and comfort. They will not have any unsupervised play like any of the other day care or boarding facilities around. I take your dog’s mental and physical care seriously. Every interaction they have can have a lasting impact on them for the rest of their life’s. I am currently a stay at home dad so my schedule is very flexible. Your pets safety and well being is my top priority throughout the day. I currently have 1 female Belgian Malinois her name is Moxie. If you have any more questions please do not hesitate to message me and ask.

About: I have taken care of animals of every kind since I was a young child. You name it I probably have experience with it! Animals are my true passion! I have two horses, three dogs, and two cats. I have experience farm and ranch sitting. On top of all this— I’m understanding! I’m understanding that each animal has it’s own quirks and I don’t judge an animal on that! My rates can be pretty flexible. If I strike your interest as a pet care provider please reach out to me and we can discuss rates. I work for myself and set my own schedule daily! I’m incredibly flexible. Your fur baby is my priority! Whether that be exercise, personal time and attention, special diet, rest, etc. Although I do not have a fenced in yard I do have several tethers for dogs. I offer walking as well. I have several kennels that are available. Feeding schedule is totally and completely flexible based on what your dog is used to. If you have a specific or special request more than likely I can accommodate.

About: I’ve had many animals throughout my life and know that caring for them is my passion. I recently lost my Australian shepherd so this will be filling the void! I’m currently going out for maternity leave at work so my schedule is very open to all the fur babies. Size and breed are not an issue I have a fenced in back yard if that’s what your baby is needing. If they are inside then they are welcome to be a furry couch potato!

About: Hey thank you for taking the time to view my profile, here's a little information about me: Currently I am enrolled in college majoring as a veterinarian technician. My goal is to succeed in helping and caring for as many animals as I can. As someone who has had extremely close bonds with every pet I've ever had in my life, I can also proudly say that they are not just animals. Our pets are like family. Animals are incrediblly smart and in a way are like humans. They deserve to be treated with love, gentleness and fully cared for. I can be reached at any convenience. I’m currently taking classes online therefore leaving me with more free time to help of those families in need of the extra hands. For pets staying with me I have an yard that leads into a 3 mile path that wraps around a lake which is perfect for pets that need to stretch their legs. But also in a pet owners home I am clean, responsible and worried about the pets safety at all times. I'm currently a stay at home mom, with plenty of free time during my schedule. I'm available Monday-Sunday, at all times. Please give me at most an hour to respond to requests during the day. And if reaching out overnight please allow a few hours for a response. Thank you! All pets will be have my full attention, and you will constantly be updated with plenty of pictures and info during their stay. I also highly recommend bringing a crate, or dog bed during your pets visit, so they have a spot that's dedicated to having their own space.

About: Wasn't allowed to have pets when I was young but as soon as I could, I treat them like I want to be treated because fur babies are an extension of the people that raise them I'm currently retired/disabled Army, I have nothing but time to be of service to service animals and non service animals. So when last minute stuff happens I'm the go-to for friends and family I have a fenced in yard and a screened off patio and can cage your pet or room them if potty trained or even let them sleep in the same space as me if they need constant human interaction. I have 2 dogs they can react to or be kept separate from in the house between the fenced yard and screened off patio. The garage is also screened off so the doors can be left open for more space and ventilation. It's a 2 floor home so if your pet doesn't play well with others, they'll never have to meet. Everyone that lives in the home shares 2 or more decades of pet care experience or are Army medics with experience in emergency medicine.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Cottonton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 240 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Cottonton. 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 Cottonton. 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 Cottonton.

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 Cottonton. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
