“So thankful for Mikayla. She was my first Rover booking and she made me feel very comfortable with the entire process. My dog loved her during our first meet and greet. Mikayla is a great communicator. She sent me fun pictures when she walked my doggie. Will definitely book again!”
About: I grew up with cats, fostered a border collie puppy in college and have experience training puppies and kittens. I currently have two cats and will hopefully be getting my own dog soon! I have experience with senior care for cats, giving medication, and grooming both cats and dogs. I have a bachelor’s degree, government background checks and am CPR, ACLS and BLS certified. I love long walks and cuddling up with animals! Your furry friend will be well loved and taken care of! 🇺🇸If you are a part of the military family, I have access to base I work part-time so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I am available on most weekends and am open to regularly scheduled visits. I should be available for most holidays due to the nature of my husband’s job. I am unable to board animals at this time due to having a cat at home. I am available for daily drop-ins for those of you working long hours or for when you’re on vacation. I love taking dogs for walks and playing fetch, tug of war, and giving snuggles! Cats definitely have a special place in my heart and I deeply understand their needs.
About: Hi, my name is Lydia! I love to take care of animals, from dogs to cats to fish and guinea pigs, etc. I have two miniature pinchers, Hazel and Alex. They are both 2 years old with some big personalities. Alex is more on the curious and playful side while Hazel just loves to cuddle. If you want to board your pets then they will always have their company :) Please feel free to reach out anytime you need someone to watch your pet(s) I would be more than happy to watch them. My schedule is flexible. I’m a student but both my classes and work are online so I’m sure we can work out a schedule that works for both of us! I will care for your pet as if they were my own pet, and if there are certain routines that a pet has I will make sure to follow them.
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have hands-on experience caring for pets for family and friends for several years. I provide loving and patient care and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a dog mom of two myself, I understand how important it is to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away, so I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! I work Monday thru Friday but my schedule is flexible and I alternate between going into the office and working remotely (typically only going into the office 1-3 days per week). Because I have two dogs at home myself, my schedule is already set up with breaks on the days I’m in the office to allow for potty breaks. I live in a house with a fully fenced in backyard in a safe and quiet location. I do own two friendly golden retrievers myself, but am happy to accommodate your pet by crating mine and/or separating them if your dog is anxious. I will discuss with you what you are comfortable with and adjust as needed!
“She really helped me out of a bind when I had no one to let my 6 month old puppy out of her kennel for a pee and water break during the day while I worked my 12 hour shifts for 2 days. I could tell by the second day that Ellie recognized Colleen, and not only that was excited to see her again! Colleen really took care of my puppy, was patient while she sniffed everything and anything on their walk, made sure she pottied and had a drink before putting her back in her kennel for the rest of my shift. Great experience! Both for me, and for Ellie too. 10/10 would recommend, and would book again :)”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs since the age of 8. I now own 4 dogs and a cat of my own and love all the hard work that goes into it. I am confident with dogs and cats of all breeds, senior care, infant care, administering medication, bathing, cleaning and other various levels of care. I promise to love and treat your babies as my own!! I am currently a stay at home mom of twins making my schedule wide open. Taking care of pets is something I love and will always have time for! I will always put safety as a top priority! I will ensure fences and doors are locked and shut, leashes are secured and will adhere to any other safety requests you may have.

I also make sure that they are well fed and hydrated.

“Bri’Ana and Tyler continue to go above and beyond during their walking visits with our pup! I always feel safe knowing she is in their hands. They are reliable and professional and I highly recommend their services.”
“Brittany is an exceptional pet sitter. My animals loved her and I could always count on her to take very good care of them while I was away. Any questions I had were answered promptly through the rover app and she made sure to give me detailed accounts on how my pets did at home, during their walks, at meal times, etc. She has a great respect for the safety of the animals as well and took care of my pets (and house!) above and beyond what is expected. Thanks Brittany for giving my pets the loving and safe care they needed! Best of luck in all your adventures ?”
“Marissa was great with our dog jellybean, and provided lots of cute pictures of her on their walks! Overall, great communication the whole time and will use again in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cumberland
Austin has been an absolute blessing during a time of emergency after I broke my wrist. Whenever I've needed help, he has been there without hesitation, and I truly can't express how much that has meant to me. I have a huge Great Dane, Apollo, who is only a year old and full of energy. Austin has been incredible with him. He is patient, caring, reliable, and clearly has a natural connection with dogs. Apollo absolutely adores him, and it's obvious that Austin genuinely cares about his well-being and happiness. Seriously, Austin is a rockstar when it comes to dog walking. Knowing Apollo is in such capable hands gives me complete peace of mind. I couldn't be happier with the care and attention he provides. Thank you, Austin, for all of your help and for being so wonderful to Apollo. From both of us, you deserve 5,000 stars! 🌟🐾💙
Brooke was fantastic! She was reliable, communicative, and took such great care of my dog. I loved receiving updates and photos, and it was obvious my pup was happy and well cared for. Brooke went above and beyond to make me feel at ease, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover walker
Jenny had been walking my Bella twice a week for several months until recently. I cannot give her enough kudos. From the first meet and greet I could tell she loves dogs and Bella bonded with her immediately. Over the past few months that bond has grown so much, Bella loves her and the feeling is mutual. She not only walks her but looks out for her well being and offers suggestions. I certainly recommend her to give your pet the best possible care.
She really helped me out of a bind when I had no one to let my 6 month old puppy out of her kennel for a pee and water break during the day while I worked my 12 hour shifts for 2 days. I could tell by the second day that Ellie recognized Colleen, and not only that was excited to see her again! Colleen really took care of my puppy, was patient while she sniffed everything and anything on their walk, made sure she pottied and had a drink before putting her back in her kennel for the rest of my shift. Great experience! Both for me, and for Ellie too. 10/10 would recommend, and would book again :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Cumberland is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 852 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Cumberland. 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 Cumberland. 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 Cumberland 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 Cumberland. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
