“Elaina is always right on time. She communicates everything about the visit and anything she notices that is different so I always know what is going on with my dog. I know she takes great care of her”
“We feel so lucky to have found Maddie on Rover. She walks our golden retriever 3x a week and always sends the most thoughtful reports after their walks, which I honestly look forward to each day. Our pup, Nessa, definitely looks forward to their walks too!”
“Amazing couple! They are great with my big dog and she absolutely love them! I feel relieved whenever they come to visit her and take her for a walk. They provide a wonderful service! Very well recommended.”
“Brittany has been such a relief for my husband and myself. Our adopted four legged Gus Bus is home for at least 10-11 hours. Brittany is his saving grace and spends time giving him snuggles and walks whenever he’s willing. She’s very punctual and very good with communicating about Gus. We’re so appreciative for the love and attention she has given our special boy.”
About: I took care of my neighbors four cats when I was a teenager, and I have owned several dogs and one cat over the course of my life. One of my dogs had canine cognitive decline (dementia), so I am familiar with that and all of the attached issues. I currently work two days a week in downtown Columbus, but that means that I am available some Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. Otherwise, my schedule is flexible since my other work is self-guided. I like to make sure that pets are comfortable and that my presence is not an imposition on them. This means that I am on the lookout for signs that they need to go outside or that it is meal time. I give them as much attention as they want and then let them do their thing.
“Jacqueline is amazing with my dog and 2 cats! So sweet to them, and patient with my dog’s little quirks. She does a great job keeping me updated and takes the cutest pictures of them. I’m very thankful.”
About: I’ve always had dogs my whole life and am able to build a special connection with them! I can’t wait to build connections with more dogs, cats, and other pets! I am currently a college student home for the summer with lots of free time to care for pets!! I am only working a remote internship so my schedule is very flexible! Pets are just as important as people and are family! I make sure to treat my pets and others with care and respect, while also making sure they’re having fun and behaving well! Being the owner of a high energy dog myself, I am well aware of safety considerations as well!
“Faith has been such a wonderful, reliable walker for our dog Baz. She was kind enough to be able to come three times a week and walk/give love to our poor little separation-anxiety-riddled dog, which I just know made his entire day. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”
“Chloe was so patient with our Redford. She took great care of him on walks, punctual, and is super attentive to directions. Highly recommend if you’re in need of a dog walker! Thank you, Chloe!”
About: I've pet sit for many friends and family including walking, feeding, playing, and more! I care for all animals and love giving snuggles as well as lots of pets! I work part time at the outlet mall a few days a week and get out around 8:30 but I am mostly free around that! I have one crazy doberman at home and have pet sit shy dogs as well as very playful! I care for all of them equally and will cater to any needs your baby might need.
About: I have a beautiful dog of my own at home, his name is Merlin, he is an Australian Shepherd Border Collie mix, and a huge bundle of energy! I am not unfamiliar with puppies, elders, big dogs, little dogs, and the like! I am comfortable interacting with dogs ranging from Great Danes, Golden Retreivers, and even Dachshunds! I am able to stay overnight, head over during early morning hours, and spend the night overnight! I work in Powell OH about 40 hours a week, 8 hour shifts on average. I get my schedule 3 weeks out, and I am happy to share it with any pet parents looking to book! I've just recently bought my car, so transportation is reliable! I love to take dogs on walks, play with cats and dogs alike, and cuddle with both of them, should they permit me to! I am fully willing to do whatever needed to keep you and your furbaby happy given I am able to do so!
About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you're away, I strive to provide attentive, loving care tailored to their individual needs. I work from home so I can prioritize your pets needs around the clock. My schedule can work seamlessly with puppies or small dogs that need frequent bathroom breaks. At home, I care for my own dog like family. I have a Frenchie who I absolutely adore, and her daily routine includes regular walks, playtime, and visits to the park so she can stay active and social. She’s very friendly, gentle, and loves being around other dogs, so she’s a great example of the calm, positive environment I aim to provide for any pets in my care
About: Hi! I’m Jason. I had a several pets (cats, dogs, even chickens!) growing up and have been both dog and cat sitting since I was young. Currently have two kittens. I can cater to most pets’ needs. I’m a teacher on summer break, and completing grad school virtually, so I am available at a moment’s notice to care for your pup or cat. I am attentive and alert and very communicative. I can sense differences in pets and make quick decisions when necessary while communicating effectively with owners.
About: My whole life there was an animal in my household. So ever since I was 5 years old I would help out. It started off as just feeding the dogs but as I got older I gained more and more experience. Taking the dogs on a walk, letting them outside, simple grooming, administering medicine, etc. Dogs and animals alike have a special place in my heart. They truly are man’s best friend. Even if it isn’t my personal animal it is my goal to give your furry friend the same care and affection that they deserve. I’m currently a college student in my sophomore year. I miss my dogs now that I’m not home, so I truly do give other people dogs as if they are my own. My schedule is mostly open in the evenings and I’m more than willing to work things out, even outside of hours that are listed in my profile. I would want to get to know you and your dog before I come into both of your guys domain. I would follow directions however you desire and most importantly treat them as my own fur baby.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 14 years old and have always had a genuine love for pets. Over the years, I’ve helped care for a variety of animals, including cats, ferrets, and dogs through pet sitting and house sitting for neighbors and family friends. I also have a 9 year old Border Collie/Lab mix of my own, who I’ve cared for and grown up with. Pet care is something I do on the side because I truly enjoy being around animals and building bonds with them. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet sitting and walks. Since this is something I do because I genuinely love animals, I’m open and adaptable to different pet care needs and always happy to help however I can! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for by being patient and understanding with their individual personalities and needs. With my own dog and other pets I’ve cared for, I’ve learned that building trust takes time, so I never force interaction. I let pets come to me at their own pace so they can feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Creating a calm, loving, and stress free atmosphere is always my priority.
About: I am available daytime and evenings and weekends to watch your dog, feed, take on walks, play, etc while you are away. I have animal loving daughters who are fearless and incredibly helpful! You can have the peace of mind that your dog is getting attention and care when you can't be there. Dogs need companionship and that is what I am here for when you need time away. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and will continue to be as I introduce my growing family to the world of pets of all shapes and sizes. Please let me know of any special preferences for each animal as I’d like to make their experience personal for each of them and make them feel loved! I am a full time stay at home mom. I am home most of the week with exceptions of a couple daytime excursions with my daughters. Dogs fit into our daily life and are treated as one of our own. I have a huge fenced in yard with a 6 foot security fence. If your dog does best with a crate for times when they are left alone or for bedtime, please provide the crate and I’d be happy to follow your dogs normal routine.

Anna is always super helpful! I occasionally book with her to check in on my cat, Minnie, when I’m out of town. I also book with her to walk my dog Luka on days I’m gone at the office or plan to be gone for more than a few hours. She is great with both of them!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Delaware on Rover is $18.87 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,476 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Delaware. 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 Delaware. 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 Delaware.

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 Delaware. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 99% 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 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.
