“Michelle is amazing! She is so wonderful with our energetic (and strong) fur baby Pitbull Luna. Luna is so much happier since doing regular walks with Michelle. Great communication, positive attitude and goes above and beyond showing us and Luna how much she cares. Michelle has also been great and flex on using a few extra minutes to take our 14 year old pit on a walk around the cul de sac so he also feels included. So glad we found Michelle and our fur babies are over the moon.”
“Lauren was quick to notice Riley's patch he had been scratching and took a photo for me. It was a great way to help me see what I was coming home to and how to prep for his care. AWESOME job.”
About: I've been around animals my whole life. Caring for dogs & cats as well as farm animals has always been a natural part of life for me. It's my honor to help care for your animals! I am currently working part time, and I transport my kids to/from school, but I have some big open windows of time to spend my energy & attention on your babies! Happy to visit, feed, play with pets in their own home, let dogs out into your fenced yard for potty or take them for walks! I will also wipe dog's feet before they run around the house, and/or wipe up the floor. I can keep pets separate if needed, giving them individual time/attention.
“Sarah was excellent! She accepted my request last minute and accommodated changes in plans. She kept me up to date before and after visits. Sent pictures and tracks from walks. She understood the needs of my aging but active border collie and kept her active and engaged while I was away for the weekend. She made sure that my dog was fed left the lights and music on for her when she left. She met and exceeded expectations. Would highly recommend. We look forward to Sarah visiting again!”
“My mom had surgery and needed a temporary dog walker. Isabella took Jack, her miniature poodle on 30 minute walks over the last two weeks. We loved the pictures she took on the walks! And my Mom really liked Isabella. Friendly, punctual and Jack had a good time. Thank you Isabella! We’ll call you again if there is a need.”

About: Hi there! I’m Jessi, and I truly believe life is better with animals. I’ve loved and cared for pets of all kinds, and that love runs deep in my family too — I have four amazing kids who share the same passion for animals. My home is full of energy, kindness, and plenty of love to go around. I would be honored to provide a safe, cozy, and caring space where your pet can feel right at home.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for all animals — from cats and dogs to bunnies, chickens, and goats. If I could live on a farm or animal sanctuary surrounded by fur and feathered friends, I’d do it in a heartbeat. Having worked in multiple animal hospitals and clinics, I’ve developed strong skills in animal care, patience, and compassion. Caring for animals isn’t just what I do — it’s who I am. have some health challenges that limit me from working a typical job, but spending time with animals isn’t work for me—it’s pure joy. This is playtime for both of us, and I’m grateful for every moment I get to share with these sweet and special souls. I always make sure to leave things just as they were—or even better! I take great care of the animals I look after, making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or a little baby talk (because who can resist?), your pets will always receive the same love and attention you’d give them yourself. Animals are such sweet and special souls, and when I’m with them, they have my full attention.

Michelle was absolutely wonderful with my pup! He hadn’t met her before, but her gentle voice and calm energy helped him warm up to her right away. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and even gave us some amazing tips, which meant so much to us as first-time dog parents. We are so grateful for her kindness, patience, and help when we needed it. I cannot thank her enough. Thank you, Michelle! Highly recommend!
Katherine was communicative, friendly, on-time and did a great job following instructions and providing walk details for Maple on the Rover Card! I really appreciated her assistance with this, while I had to work a late shift. Highly recommended dog walker for sure! 👍

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Covington on Rover is $22.2 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 11,887 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Covington. 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 Covington. 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 Covington.

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 Covington. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
