“Debbie is remarkable! Her love for my pup Charlie is a constant, and it shows in every interaction they have. Charlie absolutely adores her and gets so excited whenever she arrives. Debbie is dependable, caring, and always goes above and beyond to make sure Charlie is happy, safe, and well cared for. She gives me complete peace of mind knowing he's in such loving and capable hands. I couldn't ask for a better dog walker, and I wholeheartedly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family.”

About: When I was 9 or 10, I had a beloved pet that we sadly had to give away due to a tough moving situation. Years later, we were lucky to bring Charlie home and Marvel, and they have been cherished members of our family for a few years. As a remote college student, I understand how important it is to find reliable help for your pets. I'm here for you and available to pet sit any day of the week or over the weekend. Your furry friends will be in good hands! I can walk your dog every 2-3 hours to ensure they get the exercise and attention they need. Additionally, I have a fenced yard with cameras for safety, where they can play. My own dog, Charlie, a friendly, neutered, vaccinated maltipoo, would love to have a companion to share some fun with! And Cocker spaniel named Marvel (he isn’t neutered yet due to age) who is also vaccinated.

About: As the proud owner of a sweet, Chocolate Lab named Charlie Brown, I know firsthand that our animals aren’t “just pets”—they’re family! I offer professional, reliable drop-in visits and walks tailored specifically to your dog's unique energy levels and safety requirements. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles or whatever your pet loves most to make their day extra special. I’m happy to follow their usual routine and take the time to make them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I’ve always loved dogs and truly enjoy being around them. In fact, even when I’m on vacation, I find myself looking for ways to spend time with dogs! On my last vacation, I visited a local shelter and ended up taking one of the dogs out for the day—just because I wanted to give them some extra love, attention, and a fun break from the kennel and it was so rewarding. I genuinely love dogs! I’m also a cat lover and happy to care for your cats, too! I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, attention, and of course plenty of love while you’re away. I’ve spent the past 20 years caring for pets as an adult and have had cats and dogs throughout my entire life. I’d love to give your pets that same love and attention I give mine, while they’re in my care. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate both recurring and occasional walks or drop-in visits. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s routine whenever possible. **If you do not see open availability on a particular date for which you would like to request my services, please message me and I will let you know if I am available to accommodate your pet's needs** I want your pet to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. During drop-in visits, I’ll give them plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, and companionship. For walks, I’ll make sure they get safe, enjoyable exercise at their own pace. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you leave, and I’ll always treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. //What a Premium Visit with Me Includes: * Safety-First Leash Manners: Attentive handling to ensure no slipping collars, harnesses or reactive encounters on walks. * Real-Time Digital Tracking: You will receive detailed Rover Cards with GPS walk routes, exact potty logs, and multiple high-quality photos during every visit. * Home Security Assurance: Diligent care taken with your home's locking mechanisms, alarm systems, and respect of your home. * Custom Routines: Strict adherence to your pet's precise feeding, requests & timelines.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for friends and family over the past 17 years, including overnight stays with me on weekends. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime and following each dog’s normal routine. I’m dependable, attentive and genuinely love animals—and they tend to love me right back! I’ll treat your pup like family and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet care a priority. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends depending on your pet’s needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away.

About: My extensive experience in pet care is founded on a deeply rooted love for animals and a commitment to providing top-notch service. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach tailored to each pet's unique needs and personality. Whether it's walking a puppy, or providing gentle care for senior pets, I have a versatile skill set that ensures every furry friend in my care receives the attention and support they deserve. My ability to adapt to various situations and my keen understanding of animal behavior enable me to create a safe and comfortable environment where pets thrive. Don't think I just stop at Cats and Dogs! I was a professional pet sitter for years and have watched and cared for Guinea Pigs, Hamsters, Fishes and a Pigeon (yes even a pigeon). I currently have 8 year old cat Begbie (gorgeous, grumpy and full of sass) 2 1/2 year old cat Dexter (always has his tuxedo on ready to crash events and full of spice) 3 guinea pigs (Norman, Joel and Donnie), they currently reside in their own room (with fences around the outlets), where they have plenty of room to forage, hide, run, whatever their tiny hearts desire. In essence, my passion for pets, sets me apart as a pet sitter who goes above and beyond to exceed expectations and provide peace of mind to pet owners. One of the biggest perks of having a flexible schedule right now? I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I currently have very flexible daytime/nighttime availability, which means I can accommodate a variety of pet-sitting needs, including drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I’m also able to spend extra time with pets who need a little more attention or simply don’t enjoy being left alone for long periods. Need someone to stop by during the day? I’m your person! Have a pet who needs multiple visits? Let’s talk! Have a senior pet who needs a little extra TLC? Absolutely! Have a furry friend who thinks a 20-minute visit is simply unacceptable? I understand their demands. 😂 Because my schedule is flexible, I’m happy to work with you to create a routine that keeps your pets comfortable and maintains as much of their normal schedule as possible. Your schedule may be busy. Mine is currently wide open—and your pets are more than welcome to fill it! 🐶🐱🐹🐦 Availability varies by day and booking, so please reach out and let’s see what works best for you and your pets. Whether I’m caring for your pet in their home or caring for my own in our home, my number-one priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and completely spoiled—in the best possible way! I believe keeping their routine as normal as possible is key. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, litter box care, playtime, and any special routines your pet has. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship because I know pets can miss their humans just as much as humans miss them. I pay close attention to behavior and look for anything unusual, such as changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or mood. If something doesn’t seem right, I’ll let you know promptly. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own—clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I have experience with cats and small animals and understand that every pet has a different comfort level. Some want to play, some want cuddles, some want to explore, and some would prefer to stare at me from across the room while silently judging my life choices. I respect all of these personalities! 😂 Most importantly, I don’t believe pet sitting is simply checking a box on a to-do list. It’s about building trust, providing companionship, following your pet’s routine, and making sure they feel happy and secure while you’re away. You enjoy your time away. I’ll handle the treats, belly rubs, zoomies, and occasional feline attitude. 🐾

About: I’ve always loved dogs. My childhood home had over 5 dogs there at one time. Now I just have 2 amazing dogs! I’ve dog sat multiple dogs with multiple different families and enjoyed every moment I’ve shared with every dog. I went to West Chester University where I did Rover for a year. I just bought a house in Bensalem where I am available more to watch your dog! I love going on walks with my dog. My dog can sit on furniture and on my bed. She is free to roam around my house, no cage is needed. As a teacher with a structured schedule from 8 to 3, I’ve built a consistent routine around pet care, feeding, walks, and playtime happen before and after work, with weekends dedicated to deeper bonding and grooming. It’s a rewarding part of my day that helps me unwind and stay balanced. I provide attentive, personalized care by sticking to each pet’s routine, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or administering medications. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they're in my home or I’m caring for them in their own familiar space.

About: Hi, I’m April! I’m 28 and live in Philadelphia in a house with a fenced-in yard. I’m a lifelong dog lover and currently have two dogs of my own—my oldest is 12 years old and my youngest is 1½—so I’m comfortable caring for dogs at different ages, energy levels, and stages of life. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to spend extra time with dogs and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I’m looking to pick up a second gig doing something I genuinely enjoy, and caring for dogs feels like the perfect fit. Whether your dog needs a walk, some extra attention during the day, or a comfortable place to stay while you're away, I’d love to help. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident leaving your dog in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat your pup like one of my own. I have a fenced yard where dogs can safely get some fresh air and play, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, preferences, and care instructions. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup! 🐾 I work from home Mondays and Fridays and during the week I work 9-5. I will be able to fit pet care into my schedule fairly easily especially on weekends, or before and after work. I love animals and care for them as they were my own. I have two dogs of my own, who are spoiled and loved very much.

Wondered how I would find a dog walker my dogs know on Thanksgiving Day. Naomi to the rescue! I knew I could depend on her to come while we would be gone for several hours and the dogs just love her. They ate well but a little hesitant to walk. Naomi offered to walk a second time, but I knew they would be ok till we go home. And they were. Thanks so much Naomi and I know we will always contact you first.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Delanco

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Delanco is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $26 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 9,132 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Delanco. 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 Delanco. 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 Delanco 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 Delanco. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 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.
