“Christina took such good care of our little girl. Even at our first meeting we knew she was in good hands. Having experience with dogs (especially German Shepherds), Christina had the perfect demeanor with Leeloo who can be hesitant to trust people she doesn't know. Her special care, attention, and affectionate towards Leeloo had her excitedly anticipating her visits and walks!”

I currently work from home 8-4, so I have relatively open availability for all of your needs. My schedule fluctuates week to week based on meetings, etc. Open to walks and drop in visits as long as my schedule allows. I currently have two pet rabbits that are in a gated area.

About: I've taken care of various cats and dogs on and off for around 6 years. As my work is freeelance I have plenty of flexibility for your baby throughout the day.

About: Hello Everyone! I’m Nicole and that cute guy in my photo is my pup Lochly. He’s a corgi mix and he’s awesome! I have been pet sitting for friends and family for the last 20+years. I’m a realtor and a host on Airbnb and make my own schedule so I’m flexible with my hours. I like dogs of all sizes and breeds and ages. Walks, fetch, tug of war, snuggles and belly rubs ... I can do it all. I live just outside of northeast philadelphia but I am on the move a lot for work so I can cover all areas of the city. i really enjoy meeting new people and their pups and I look forward to this new venture. I am a realtor who makes her own schedule. I have lots of flexibility during the week to be able to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m detail oriented so please leave all the things required to care for your dog, no matter how silly it may be. If your babies are anything like mine they definitely have some quirks that need to be indulged and I am happy to oblige
“Kim helped us out in a pinch when we needed two midday walks while away on vacation. Her communication and follow up are impeccable. Great photos too! My two girls took to her immediately and one of my girls is very timid. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always loved animals. I grew up with 2 cats & have owned a beagle for the past 6 years. I understand how important daily exercise, love & attention are for any animal. Trusting someone with your pet can be hard, I will be sure to send plenty of photo/text updates if desired! I am currently at home full-time. This gives me plenty of flexibility with pet care. I can provide drop-in visits & dog walks throughout the day. I am happy to help! I am dependable & will keep your pet comfortable in their own space. I will follow your pets routine of feeding, walking, playing, or any special instructions. I can send photo updates for peace of mind. I will most likely have my baby with me in a carrier or stroller so I can only accommodate child-friendly dogs. The carrier keeps me hands-free to make sure I can give your dog my attention & play! I will always confirm with you that this is okay before booking.
About: I had a multiple dogs growing up, one who is 11 years old now, and also am a Fur Mom to a golden retriever.

I work full time but that is just 3 days a week, so any other day I am available most of the day to accommodate your fur babies! My schedule does change every week though I live in an apartment complex but have access to a dog park within the complex and will be able to take your pups to local dog parks as well

“I am so relieved to have found someone who was able to connect with my 20 month old 110 lb white Shepard. Kimba has a traumatic history and I have worked really hard to rehab him mentally since adopting him a few months ago. He immediately took to Anthony and put his fear-based aggression aside. Anthony constantly sent me updates with photos and followed all my requests to keep Kimba on his daily routine. I highly recommend Anthony to care for your dog.”
About: I am currently working at Banfield Pet Hospital as a Veterinary Assistant, so I am able to give pets nail trims, medications, fluids, etc., and I can also tell if there's any behavioral or medical abnormalities with your pet. I am attending Harcum college, where I am studying to be a veterinary nurse. After graduating Harcum and getting my certificate, I plan to move on to emergency/specialty medicine and specializing in anesthesia. I’m 20 years old and I have spent the majority of my life caring for animals. I even have a 5-year-old Alaskan Malamute, so I have plenty of experience with the stubborn, intelligent breeds. I’m currently working part time at Banfield and working on completing my clinical portion of college at PennVet. I can do drop ins and walks before/after shifts. I will do any and all sorts of enrichment that the pet requires including daily walks, playing with toys, going on little 'adventures', light training, giving treats, etc. Pets will be fed in a timely manner (I can't promise a set schedule due to work & class hours). I will also respect your pet's boundaries, completely! I understand not all dogs/cats want to cuddle or play; some like to hide or don't want to engage at all. I get it! I'm here to make sure they are happy, safe, and taken care of while the owner is away.
About: For over 15 years I have cared for 3 dogs , a Sphinx cat and my cat 🤍 and now I would love to care for your fuzzy family too! I love animals of all shapes and sizes and they love me too🤍 Pet care fits in because my schedule is relatively flexible I am able to stop in and visit the animals periodically or stay the entire day. I care for someone else’s pets the same way i care for my own furry friends. Sharing love when ever I’m able to. Making sure they get to use the bathroom outside, or cleaning their litter box daily so when it’s needed so they have a clean space. Taking them on walks multiple times a day or letting them out if they’re a cat, and making sure they come back in at a reasonable time. Feeding them on a set scheduled time, following feeding instructions and if they’re requiring any medicine or supplements .
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Croydon is $20

Would give more stars if I could. Christina. B, is amazing! Sent me photos of my dog Happy's walk, I really appreciated that. I would recommend her to family, friends, anyone. You can tell she really loves animals and injoys what she does. She is super sweet and very smart. Absolutely above and beyond. Thank you. And we will be in touch. Xo
Toby is a Godsend!! The way she went above and beyond for my Husky was truly a blessing. I took a 5day vacation and my pup does get depressed when I leave. He had a few accidents because of such but gratefully Toby took care of him. The walks were 3x a day and she even did it in the rain. All of his food bowls were cleaned and tidy which I didn’t even expect, but was so appreciative of after a long trip. My dog truly enjoyed her company. Toby is definitely my go to for my next trip. You really won’t be disappointed and she has a great personality. THANKS A MIL TOBY⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Kim is amazing. She is calm, kind, empathetic and my dog is truly in love with her. Shes also always on time and extremely responsive via the app. I was super nervous about finding a dog sitter/walker after some bad experiences with our last dog and feel truly relieved to have someone we can rely on to treat our dog like her own. If she ever stops walking dogs, I’m not sure what we’ll do!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Croydon is $14 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $19 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 8,995 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Croydon. 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 Croydon. 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 Croydon 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 Croydon. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
