“Amazing, Michelle has become part of our household and I am pretty sure our pups love her more than us at this point. They wait every day for her to arrive and she gives them such wonderful and focused care. We heart Michelle!”
“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.”
“Want to leave a final review for Mila and Liza,her daughter. We were supposed to move earlier in the week, but our house was delayed and I had already canceled ‘s services; however, she was so willing to come two more times the following week, even though I had not originally scheduled her. Gabby absolutely adores her time with Mila and Liza, and it is really hard, leaving such a reliable, kind, and trustworthy couple of dog walkers. You could not be in better hands!”
“Barbara does an amazing job with Levi. She’s taught him manners that we oh so appreciate. She is very communicative and always on time. Best of all Levi looks forward to his walks with her and gets Uber excited upon her arrival. Would highly recommend Barbara!!”

About: As a pet parent myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals in someone else’s care. I bring patience, affection, and attention to each pet’s individual needs.

To keep everyone comfortable and safe, I only welcome dogs suited to a home with cats and small animals, and I’ll keep my bunny securely separated from visiting dogs. I’ll discuss your dog’s temperament, routines, and needs with you before their stay.
“Renee was great! She was so helpful and accommodating in walking my pups while I was at work and it eased my mind know she was there to visit with them. She took lots of pics of the pups while on their walks and they definitely enjoyed it. I will definitely be using Renee again in the future!”
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.
About: As an avid animal lover, I've always jumped at the opportunity to help take care of family and friends' fur babies while they are busy. Unfortunately, my current residence does not allow pets. However, I am more than happy to pop in for regularly scheduled chow times, walks, playtime, etc. I'm currently a full-time graduate student and part-time barista. Due to this schedule, my availability for pet care will be primarily in the afternoons and evenings. I understand and appreciate that every pet has a unique personality and reactivity. While actively following the owner's instructions, I practice patience and compassion toward a pet's wants and needs.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Covington
Sophia is fantastic! We usually rotate between two dog walkers in case one has something come up. We recently needed help walking our dog for 2 weeks, so we split the time between our two walkers, and our other walker fell through last minute. Sophia graciously took on the additional week of walks with short notice, which really helped us out. She was on time, adjusted the walks based on our dog's needs (too hot, too rainy, etc.), kept us updated with cute pictures, and communicated promptly. We will definitely be booking with Sophia again!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Covington is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $43 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Covington. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Covington after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Covington. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
