Kenneth took great care of our dog; even though my dog was nervous and uncomfortable with people outside of us taking care of him. He did an amazing job, and made me feel so peaceful about having someone caring and responsible taking care of our dog as we had to travel due to an emergency.

About: I've cared for dogs big and small for about 8 years. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed and stay overnight with their pets. I have experience with epileptic dogs, senior dogs, medication, active supervision, etc. I recently transitions to dog walking/sitting full time to focus on building my own business, so I am now available on Monday through Friday, at 9am-5pm for drop ins/walks. I can stop by for 30-60 minutes to refill water, let out dogs, scoop litter or give medicine at any exact time. I can also easily kennel if needed.

Sheila has been walking my dog Violet since July. She is trustworthy, reliable, flexible and caring. She has lots of expirience with dogs and can handle walking a dog that doesn't have the best manners on a leash! My dog Violet seems to really enjoy her walks with Sheila! She has been able to fit in a walk for Violet every single time I have asked, even if I have contacted last minute due to a scheduling conflict on my end. Sheila is very detail oriented and observant and will notice and alert you if something seems off/different about your dog. I can't say enough good things about Sheila!

About: I have had several pets through my life and all have had different personalities. Adapting to them to make them comfortable is important. I also have helped family take care of their new puppies. I’m very comfortable and understanding when dealing with puppies. Currently I can do any time! I don’t mind having an early morning or late night drop in. I am very flexible and want to make this easy for YOU! Just communicate what you need and it’ll be great. I want the animal to be as comfy as possible. Sometimes their human leaving can be stressful! I want to meet them where it’s needed. Not have their routines thrown off.

About: I have gained valuable experience in pet care through years of looking after various animals, including dogs, cats, and small mammals. My responsibilities have included feeding, grooming, administering medications, and ensuring they receive regular exercise. I work from home which allows me to provide personalized care for your pet, ensuring they receive the attention and support they need throughout the day Caring for pets in my home or your home involves creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s needs. Here is how I approach it: Feeding and Hydration Provide fresh water at all times. Follow the pet’s specific feeding schedule and portion sizes. Ensure dietary needs or restrictions are strictly observed. Walk dogs according to their energy levels and usual routines. Engage in playtime activities, such as fetch, tug-of-war, or interactive toys. Provide enrichment for cats with climbing spaces, toys, and interactive play. Administer medications as instructed by the owner or vet. Monitor for any changes in behavior, appetite, or physical condition. Keep a record of any health updates or concerns. Maintain a clean environment, ensuring litter boxes and bedding are fresh. Pet-proof the area to prevent access to harmful substances or hazards. Offer a safe space for the pet to rest and feel secure. Provide owners with photos, videos, and updates to give them peace of mind. Discuss any concerns or observations promptly. By following these practices, I ensure pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for whether they are in my home or their own familiar environment.

About: I've done pet sitting for family and friends for most of my life. I’ve taken care of dogs by making sure they’re well fed, they play, we go walking, and being able to give oral meds if they need. I will be available on marked days, usually weekdays as well as Sundays and occasional Saturdays if needed since l have a flexible schedule during the summer. I take care of my pets diligently and lovingly so I wouldn’t do it any other way for yours! I’m currently on summer break from college, so I’ll be able to give undivided attention to your little angel! I’ll be should be available most days for walking and dog sitting except for Saturdays. (But be sure to check my marked days!) I’m fine with your pet to play in my home freely (within reason haha). There’s also a park and a plain grass space near my home if they want to play and run around there. I do have two shy cats but they’re very nice and have experience being around dogs.

When out walking, I am always aware of surroundings and what might trigger a pet. I aim to be proactive and in control at all times

About: Animal lover since birth! I have taken care of dogs, cats, frogs, rabbits, turtles, fish, lizards, and hamsters ever since I was 6 years old. I treat ever animal with love and compassion as if they were my own. Special skills include senior animal care. I would be able to spend quality time with your fur-baby! I am able to take your pet out as many times as they needed during the morning/afternoon/night. I live in a house with a huge yard for pets to go to the bathroom, play, etc. Just down the street is a dog park that I love to go to! For over nights - I allow the dogs to sleep in my room so they don’t get lonely. I have food/water bowls and a dog bed (fits medium breeds), however, if your dog likes their own things then please feel free to bring them 😊

About: I truly treat every pet like my own. I pay close attention to their personality, routines, and comfort level so they feel safe and happy. I’m patient with puppies who are still learning and gentle with senior dogs who may need a slower pace or extra care. Clear communication and detailed updates are very important to me, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits very naturally into my current routine. I have a very flexible schedule right now, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to walks, drop-ins, or extended care. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to accommodate last-minute requests and maintain consistent availability for recurring clients I’m very adaptable and comfortable following your pet’s specific routine to make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication times, walk routines, or favorite play habits, I stick closely to what your pet is used to so everything feels consistent and stress-free. At this time, I do not offer boarding services in my home, as I have a cat who is not comfortable around other animals. However, I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and in-home care to make sure your fur babies receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Dickerson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Dickerson on Rover is $13.32 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 11,279 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Dickerson. 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 Dickerson. 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 Dickerson.

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 Dickerson. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
