About: I have been around animals my whole life starting with dogs and progressing into all sorts of 4-H animals! I currently have horses, dogs and cats, but care for animals at a non-profit farm that includes: goats, chickens, turkeys and birds! I have been pet sitting since I was a young teenager and have continued doing it as a young adult because I enjoy it so much! I am currently a teacher so I have evenings and summers off to offer my services ! I would love to get to know your animals! I provide services in your home! This could be potty breaks in your backyard or walks. I will ensure to leave everything the way that I have found it and treat your pets as if they are my own family!
“Cynthia is absolutely awesome! She is great with Tucker and leaves you very detailed and funny rover cards. She sends plenty of pictures and videos so I know my baby is having fun and enjoying her company!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well-exercised. I’m comfortable handling daily walks, feeding schedules, and basic care like refilling water and cleaning up after pets. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and needs, whether that means going on longer, active walks or taking it slow with older dogs. I’m also dependable with timing and communication, so owners can trust that their pets are in good hands while they’re away. I have 5 dogs of my own and i don’t know what i would do without them. I’m currently working part time as a nursing assistant so i have plenty of time to spend time with your pups! The only days i would not be able to do are sundays and thursdays. Any other day i’m free all day! I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment both in my home and in my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions the owner provides. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel secure and happy. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized while caring for their pet. I also provide updates, photos, and communication so owners feel confident their pet is being well taken care of. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel loved and cared for at all times.
About: I’ve owned pets since I was little and I’m not scared of any breeds or size. I have experience with large reactive dogs. And I am very patient with senior dogs, as I have one myself. I have many years of experience pet setting for friends and neighbors while they are away on vacation. I work from home and have plenty of free time for walks or potty breaks during the day. I can leave the house at anytime. On walks, I would care for your dog just as I care for my own. Always on leash and safety first! All dogs need some fresh air.
About: So many years of experience with animals. I've been an animal lover since I was born. I've dealt with anything from iguanas to birds to dogs to cats. I am very reliable and very detail-oriented. We have a 6-month mini goldendoodle of her own and she lives her best life. She would highly recommend us to take care of other animals Will always be on time. No pet will ever wait because we're never late I love caring for pets. It's some of my passion in life. I've had other jobs and you just don't get the same reward from it. I would love to help you. I have lots of free time All animals under our care will get the best care and love of our ability 💕❤️ Our dog is a family member and thats how we will treat your.
“If you missed my 6 star review, after Natalie’s last visit with the pups I would raise it to seven stars! We made a very last minute change to our itinerary and she was able to accommodate us. As always she takes great care of our pups and leaves the house immaculate. Lots of communication, check ins and pictures. It is wonderful to have found someone who is so responsible. I almost hate to have to share her. You can’t go wrong having her take of your pets!”
About: I have loved and lived with dogs for as long as I can remember. Right now, I personally own four dogs that I take exceptional care of every single day. Growing up in a multi-dog household has taught me exactly how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Your pet will be treated like a member of my own family! Since I am heading to college in a month and a half, I am not working a traditional job right now. This means my schedule is completely open and highly flexible! I have plenty of time throughout the entire day and week to dedicate 100% of my attention to playing with, walking, and caring for your pups. Safety is my absolute top priority. Having four well-cared-for dogs of my own means I am always alert and know how to keep a home secure. Whether at your house or mine, I strictly follow all your specific routine rules, keep a close eye on your pet at all times, and ensure they are always safe and comfortable.
“Murray was wonderful! Delightful to work with. Excellent with communicating. Very attentive to Nala’s needs, especially as they cared for her during very intense heat. I would give my highest recommendation over and over. I’m very grateful for the care Nala received.”
“This was Ruby’s first time being walked by someone other than a family member- so she was a little nervous! But Ronny made a nervous momma and pup feel at ease right away. He greeted Ruby with a smile and happy puppy talk. Clearly she enjoyed the walk as she’s passed out at my feet!”
About: Hi! I have always been a lover of pets. I grew up with a puggle named Jonas for 12 years and he was my best friend! I also have experience pet setting for family friends. I am open to pet sitting any animal. I am known to be very patient and a quick learner. I also adapt well to new environments. I also offer Meet-and-Greets before the desired service to make sure your pets and I are a good match to ensure higher quality services. I currently work full time (Mon-Fri 8a-3p) and babysit (4p-8p Mon, Tues, Thurs). Weekends typically work best. Please notify at least a day in advanced for any requested services. Thank you!💕 I live in an apartment complex that does not allow pets, however, on the bright side that means all your desired services will be held in the comfort of your own home! ❤️
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years through helping friends, family, and neighbors with feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’ve also had my own dog for 6 years, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and gets plenty of attention while you’re away. I work Monday through Thursday, which makes me fully available on weekends for pet care. I can provide walks and drop-in visits on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays with flexible timing. I make sure pets get consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the weekend so they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. I closely follow each pet’s routine and any instructions provided by the owner to ensure consistency and comfort. I supervise pets at all times during visits and outdoor time, and I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being.

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 .

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 Dover. 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 Dover.

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 Dover. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
