About: I have cared for dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs of different ages and needs. I am dependable, attentive, and passionate about animal care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I currently work from home so I have a lot of free time. Why not spend time with furry friends! It’s also a great opportunity to take a breather and get fresh air during daily dog walks. When caring for pets in a client's home, I ensure that their daily routines are maintained to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I also make sure the home remains clean and secure while providing pets with plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and committed to creating a safe, loving environment while their owners are away.
“It was our first time having Hanaya help us out and she was upbeat and positive from the beginning. She cared for my two CKCS’s like they were her own. She shows a true love for dogs and her experience with them shows. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hello! My name is Skyler and I am currently a mammal trainer at an AZA accredited aquarium with a background in veterinary care. I would love to help walk your dog, whether you have certain training goals or just needing extra help while you are at work! I started my career by walking my friend’s crazy, (but adorable) puppy in high school. I was able to help train the puppy during every walk, and left her tired out when her owner got home. I am off two of the busiest days of the week- Monday and Tuesday. I have full availability to do drop ins, daycare, or dog walks! I have an unfenced yard and plenty of grass out front. I take frequent trips to my local park that has tons of room to play.

About: I have reliably taken care of family, friend, and neighbors’ pets for years. I love spending my time with four-legged friends and being able to provide loving and personalized care that’s catered to specific routines and personalities. Whether it’s on a walk or a drop-in visit, my priorities are safety and loving care. I make sure to communicate with photos and updates so you can be confident your pet is in great hands. With a flexible schedule, I am available every day of the week to structure my time around the pets I’m caring for. Whether that’s a long walk or play time in your backyard, I will make sure your pet is properly cared for. I will give your dog the attention they deserve on walks and home visits. They will be well loved and exercised and I will follow any specific routines or training you may be working on.

“Aaron is great. He truly cares about animals and their well being. I trust him to come in my home and care for my dog. He understands Sarge's needs. I would not hesitate to recommend him as a dog walker. He always responds immediately when booking, is punctual and keeps me informed.”

About: i am a certified animal lover experienced across species. you can ensure i am truly dedicated to the care and well being of your beloved fur baby. I am available early mornings and evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends. I am transitioning in an effort to open my availability for more pets! i have a large apartment that is very safe.

When approaching new clients, I am gentle and respectful of their spaces.
About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of dogs and cats, including pit bulls, golden retrievers, poodles, senior dogs, and tabby cats. I’ve also cared for pets with medication and dietary needs, including both oral and injectable medications. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Whether that means a long walk, plenty of play and attention, sticking closely to their feeding routine, or simply giving a nervous or senior pet some extra patience, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I’ll keep you updated with how your pet is doing and treat your pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I currently work evening shifts at my family’s restaurant in Darien, so I’m generally available for pet care during the mornings and afternoons, as well as some evenings. My work schedule does not interfere with housesitting, and I’m able to provide attentive care throughout the day and overnight. For walks and drop-in visits, I’m happy to work around my evening schedule and coordinate times that work best for you and your pet. I have a fenced-in yard and a very docile and friendly golden retriever. She’s 11 and gets along with every animal she meets. When taking care of a pet at client’s homes, I prioritize leaving it in the same or better condition than I found it.
“Dependable and caring! I recently moved to the area and Kathy has been stopping by to give my pup a walk every day as I ease back into the office after working from home during the pandemic. Kathy is trustworthy and loves my pup and treats her as well as I do and that’s why I highly recommend her. It’s easy for anyone to show up on time, but hard for someone to really give you peace of mind your furry friend is in great hands. Kathy delivers on both!”

“Alexis came in for two weeks on last minute notice. She was extremely reliable, communicative and hard-working. Frankie clearly loved her as well from the photos we received. Highly recommend!”

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Campbell! 🐾 I know how important it is to find someone who cares for your pets the way you do. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you’re away, I bring patience, reliability, and plenty of love to every visit. I’ve worked with pets of all sizes and personalities, and I pride myself on making sure tails wag, paws stay happy, and owners feel at ease. Think of me as your pet’s new best friend (with a pocket full of treats). Right now I’m lucky enough to have a very flexible schedule, which means pet care can be my top priority. I’m currently between jobs and excited to dedicate my time full-time to caring for pets. Whether it’s weekday walks, weekend drop-ins, or last-minute needs, I have the availability (and energy!) to give your pets the attention they deserve. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my first priority. When I’m in your home, I follow your routines closely so your pet feels secure — from feeding times to favorite toys and walking routes. I always double-check leashes, doors, and gates to keep them safe, and I’ll send plenty of updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind while keeping your pet happy, loved, and cared for. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space where your furry family member will feel welcome. I make sure they have a cozy, comfortable environment and lots of love and attention throughout the day. Walks, playtime, and snuggles are all part of the routine, and I keep their feeding and care schedule consistent with what they’re used to at home. I treat every pet like my own, so you can relax knowing they’re in a safe, loving environment. I have a fenced in backyard and 2 social and lovable dogs that they will become instant besties with and can keep each other company!
About: Hi, I’m Lindsay! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs with a variety of personalities, needs, and energy levels. I understand that every dog is unique, and I love creating a safe, comfortable, and positive experience for each animal I care for. I’m also a proud rescue dog owner to my Chihuahua Jack Russell mix, who has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each dog’s individual personality. Through my own experience, I’ve learned how important it is to build trust, create a sense of security, and provide compassionate care. I have experience with daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding routines, playtime, administering medications, and providing attentive companionship. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and committed to following each pet parent’s instructions closely to maintain their dog’s normal routine. Whether your pup needs an energetic walk, a calm visit, medication support, or simply some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and provide the dependable, loving care they deserve!
“Kate was absolutely excellent! She is very friendly, extremely professional and was kind enough to accommodate us on very short notice, and most important my furry baby was very happy with his walk. Thank you so much Kate, your service is greatly appreciated!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Darien on Rover is $33.3 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 7,008 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Darien. 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 Darien. 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 Darien.
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 Darien. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
