About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and over the years I’ve naturally become the go-to person for pretty much anything dog-related. From growing up and running my own little neighborhood dog-walking business, to helping friends and family train their dogs, training my own, and volunteering at shelters—it’s always been something I’ve genuinely loved. For the past 4+ years, I’ve continued that through doggy daycare, boarding and training, and now I’m looking to expand something I truly love and open my calendar to more pups! I have two dogs of my own, Nelly, a German Shepherd, and Luna, a Lab/Husky mix, and I’ve fostered quite a few dogs along the way. Through all of that, I’ve gotten experience with so many different personalities—from reactive and timid dogs to the crazy, high-energy ones. One of my favorite parts is getting to know each dog individually, learning their personality and figuring out what makes them feel comfortable, safe and happy. Dogs are already such a big part of my everyday life, so your pup will fit right into our routine! My days naturally revolve around the dogs, including any pups I have here for daycare or boarding. I make sure everyone gets plenty of playtime, exercise, enrichment, attention, and opportunities to practice their commands and good manners. My goal is for your dog to feel like they’re part of the family while they’re here, not just another dog at daycare. I treat every dog in my care the way I would want my own dogs to be treated if I were trusting someone else with them. Building trust is always my first priority, especially when a dog is new to my home. I like to spend one-on-one time with them first, allowing them to explore, get comfortable with me, and settle into their new environment before introducing anything else. Slow introductions with other dogs are a must for me. I never rush interactions or assume every dog wants to immediately make friends. I pay close attention to body language, personalities, boundaries, and comfort levels, and introductions are always handled carefully and at your dog’s pace. While your dog is in my care, I want my home to feel like their home too. Dogs are welcome to free roam, so I’m very mindful about keeping the space clean, safe, and free of anything they could get into. I also have designated gated areas where dogs can safely eat, play, relax, or have some alone time when needed.
“Jennifer is a friendly fun loving dog walker. My dog Luke looks forward to his walks with her. I am very pleased we chose Jennifer to spend a couple times a week with our new fur ball.”

About: I have had senior care with a few pets including administering medications. I have experience with different types and sizes of pets from 4 lbs to 1500 lbs! Had a 4 lb dog, 80 lb dog and many sizes in between. All size cats. Experience with dogs, cats, horses, birds, hedgehogs, chickens, and cows! I work part time and have flexibility at my work. I generally have Fridays and Saturdays off. I can generally accommodate last minute schedule needs or changes. Pets are cared for with love and respect. I enjoy getting to know the different personalities of the pets. I am careful to follow owner given directions.
About: Hi everyone! My name is Shannon and any dog I have met I have loved like my own! My husband and I both grew up with pets and can't wait to have one of our own one (one day!!). From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding, we have experience with it all! Your dog will be in great hands and receive all the attention they need. If you would like any references please just ask! I can't wait to meet you and your pet family. I currently work from home, so will have plenty of time to play and walk your pups! I am available for walking, sitting, and boarding any day of the week. I have a large house and fenced in yard with plenty of safe space to run around and play. I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: I've always had animals in my life since the day I was born. I was brought up to love all creatures big and small. My true passion and love in this life is for the animals. I have worked with mainly cats and dogs. Volunteered in many animal shelters in NH and CT. At one time I lived in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico where I helped run an animal shelter. Saving many animals from bad situations. I also went around to the schools down there educating the children on how to care for an animal. When I moved back to the USA I started volunteering at my vet where I brought my dogs for care. My vet ran a rescue called All Better Pets. She turned it over to us volunteers. We created a Board where I became Treasurer. I have no children so my animals are my children. This is just a brief description of the many things I have done to help. Thank you for reading this and Happy Tails!! I am an LNA and currently I work Monday through Friday with seniors through a private company. I would eventually like to get back into working with animals full time. I am looking to walk, feed and or care for your furbaby in your home. Currently I can not Board an animal as my friend who I live with has 3 cats, 1 which is old and sick. Sorry! Currently in my home we have 3 cats. Our dog has passed. They have free range of the home and many places to look out the windows along with climbing towers etc. When my dog was alive she had an electric fence where she was free to roam while we were home.
About: We treat animals as parents would with a child. It's all about knowing that every creature has a personality of their own and taking the appropriate approach for positive behavior and training. We work full-time, yet we make time for evening walks with our youngest dog (if the temperature is bearable). On the weekends, we take her for 1-2 walks within the two days. Late Spring to mid Fall is the best time for outdoor fun. We have another older dog that is crate trained if they need to be caged in because of visitors. If a dog is trained well enough to not run off, we do have a wide open backyard they can run around in.

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs, and these days I'm often the person friends and family call when they need someone to look after their pets. I've spent plenty of time walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they're well cared for while their owners are away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including larger, high-energy breeds. I enjoy getting to know each animal's personality and building trust with them. I've even trained my own cats to do tricks and respond to commands using positive reinforcement. Taking care of animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I take the responsibility seriously because I know how much people's pets mean to them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to provide walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. Outside of work, taking care of animals has always been a regular part of my life, whether that's spending time with my own pets or helping friends and family with theirs. Because I work a consistent schedule and plan my time carefully, I can be reliable and punctual when it comes to pet care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so it's something I genuinely look forward to rather than trying to squeeze into a busy schedule. I try to keep things as close to the pet's normal routine as possible. When I'm caring for a pet in their home, I follow the owner's instructions and make sure they're getting everything they need, whether that's walks, meals, playtime, medications, or just some company while their owner is away. I pay attention to each animal's personality and body language and adjust my approach accordingly. Some pets want lots of attention and activity, while others are happier with a quieter approach and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with both. Safety is always important to me. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I keep an eye out for anything that seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure pets are comfortable, well cared for, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I make sure that I'm always available, and communication is a huge priority for me
About: Hey! My name is Allie, Ive been around dog my entire life! I train professionally with my 5 year old Doberman x Belgian Malinois in various different sports such as PSA and dock diving! I’ve worked in a small local boarding and training facility as a training apprentice for 3 years. In that time i’ve boarded and trained client dogs in my home from 7 weeks old all the way to 13 years old! Providing top standard care allows your pet to feel right at home in that exact home environment! I currently work part time, so I will have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups! I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays at any time. I am gone from my home for a max of 3 hours throughout the day as I do work from home and prioritize training with my personal and also client dogs! I only take on one client at a time, I do this to help me maximize the most time with your pup, but also to keep a calm, stress free, and clean environment! Feel free to reach out anytime, I usually respond fairly quickly. High volume facilities packed with dogs can be extremely stressful to our canine companions. This is where I come in! By offering your best friend a quiet, safe, sanitary and stress free environment it allows them to feel right at home. Your pup will be showered with love and affection from not only myself but other family members including my mother, grandmother and brother in the home, allowing them to take a warm loving vacation in a home environment. We all truly treat each pup like our own!
About: I have taken care of at least two dogs growing up in my household. I am also accustom to any size dogs. Performed duties such as walking, feeding, bathing, and medications. I currently am enrolled in a fully remote undergraduate program so I’ll have plenty of time to walk, play, and care for your pets as I am home almost always. For my personal pets they are primarily indoor dogs but I do have a fenced in yard plenty of room to run and even social with my dogs or if you are comfortable with crating I can separate them as well.
About: I personally have 2 dogs, the oldest is 15 years old this year and still healthy! I’m highly communicative, detail-oriented, and genuinely treat every dog like my own. I pay close attention to routines, energy levels, and comfort, and I always keep owners updated with photos and notes so you never have to wonder how your dog is doing. I’m currently working on app development for my own business, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to plan my days around pet care and be available whenever your pet needs attention, walks, or check-ins. I treat every pet like my own. I stick to their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, keep spaces clean and secure, and always keep owners updated with photos and messages.
About: I’ve owned and worked with dogs all my life. I have worked with many different types of dogs including Pomeranians, Huskies, Great Pyrenees, Springer Spaniels, Golden Retrievers and Australian Shepherds. I love dogs and dogs love me! I previously worked at a pet store and I know a lot about dogs and all types of pets. I am also very used to working with puppies, it’s always been one of my favorite periods in a dogs life and not just because they’re cute and tiny! I love working on training puppies and seeing them figure things out. A lot of shy dogs tend to be a little more comfortable around me and I am good at working with anxious dogs. That said I am not a fan of aggressive dogs or large dogs that excessively pull their leash (I am small! Not strong enough). I work M-F 8 hours a day. I am available in the evenings on weekdays or for pets that can be alone during the workday, and I am free on weekends. The care I provide is based on the needs of each pup and their parents, I do like to provide photos no matter what because I love taking pictures of every pup. I’ve administered medications before, I’ll take pups for walks as required and monitor if they seem to need any additional time outside, I’ll feed pups according to their schedule and suggested portion size.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Derry is $25
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Derry
Annie is so fabulous!! We met a little while ago and I’ve used her a handful of times but she really came through this past week. My schedule became a little discombobulated this past week with a recent death and I was looking for help with my dog. Not only was she happy to help last minute but she was prompt with her reply back! My dog loves her and I do too!! If you’re looking for someone with a good heart choose Annie 🐶💕

Terrific service! Sandy was compassionate and careful with our elder dog and younger dog who had recent surgery and was in a sad mood. She sent regular updates which we appreciated. She is clearly comfortable with all situations and we feel we can trust her with our dog care. Highly recommend.

Sam has been walking my German shepherd a couple days a week. Communication has been excellent. She always shows up on time as scheduled. My dog has been enjoying their outings and I feel at ease knowing she has experience with this breed and her e-collar we use to reinforce training when needed. Thanks Sam!!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Derry is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $24 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.

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 Derry. 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 Derry 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 Derry. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
