Kristine did an amazing job with my babies!! She was punctual. Communicated amazingly and was able to follow all my very detailed instructions making. I had a quite a few security measures and she followed vetting perfectly making me feel like my dogs and home were safe while I was way in Cancun for 5 days. The babies loved her. I even got a little jealous watching my Roxy cry on the camera after their time together. I will 1000% recommend Kristine and will be using her in the future for dog sitting/walking needs!

Dylan has been so great with my dog. She treats him just as I would. Dylan is not just reliable; she's become an integral part of my dog's daily routine and I never worry when Dylan is taking care of him. Dylan's communication is top-notch too. She sends me updates and photos, giving me peace of mind during the workday. She goes the extra mile, quite literally, by varying their routes, so my dog stays engaged and stimulated. I couldn't recommend Dylan more highly. She's not just a dog walker; she's a trusted companion to my beloved pet. If you're looking for a dog walker who genuinely cares, look no further. Dylan is simply the best!

About: I've had both dogs and cats my entire life, so being around animals is second nature to me. Over the years, I've also helped care for my neighbors' and family friends pets whenever they were out of town. This included; feeding, walking, playing, and just being there to keep them company. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I always treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether it’s a quick check-in or a longer stay, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I am a student at the University of Michigan, studying sport management. I would love the opportunity to take care of other people's pets over my summer break. I will start my summer break by the end of June and would love to jump right in by helping those around me care for their pets in my free time. I am super flexible, so please feel free to message me! I focus on keeping things safe, comfortable, and stress-free. Every animal is different, so I take the time to understand what makes them feel relaxed and happy. I also keep owners updated with quick check-ins and photos, so they know their pet is doing well and being cared for like family.

About: I have always been an animal person, and have been a regular dogsitter and catsitter for friends and family for over 10 years. I love caring for all types of critters, from little balls of energy to to more mellow senior animals, and will try my best not to spoil yours too much (depending on how quickly they steal my heart.) I specialize in enrichment activities, such as walks and play sessions, but will also enjoy just hanging out with your little buddy in any capacity. I'm currently off of school for the summer, so I have lots of available time in the day to care for your animals! I am generally available any day of the week between 8 AM and 10 PM, except for Sunday, when I am not available until 11 AM. (6-8 AM is also a possibility if necessary.) I always make sure to respect my clients' homes and keep their belongings safe from rowdy playing. I will always be sure to read your instructions for entry carefully, and I am good at cleaning up a mess if there is one made.

About: I’ve been around all animals since I was a young child. I will treat your babies like they are my own. I have alot of experience with puppies and senior dogs. Fur babies are always prioritized. I am available to take the dogs out 2-3 times a day as needed. Most of the time if I’m in the house the dogs with be relaxing and cuddling with me or playing with each other. If I leave or go to work the dogs are crated. I have several parks nearby so that your baby can get out, stretch, and get fresh air. I can crate your baby as well. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby.

About: Growing up with 2 Huskies, 1 Samoyed, 9 bunnies, and even a chinchilla, I have had my fair share of experience with animals over the years. I have taken care of the pets, plants, and houses of family and friends, now wishing to expand that interest to my community. I am additionally very active and a runner, therefore happy to walk (and run) with energetic pets. As a part-time nurse, I work 2-3 shifts a week. While my schedule is different week by week, I am available on my days off. I treat other homes with the same cleanliness and respect as my own. My home is a 3 story Baltimore rowhouse with a small fenced-in backyard and many walkable parks in the vicinity. I have 1 very shy female cat, who usually keeps to herself when other animals are around.

About: I grew up always having a dog in the house. When I moved out I really missed hanging out with my dogs so I started dog walking. I worked as a dog walker in DC for 4 years. I learned about body language, leash training, and how unique every dog truly is. I love to walk. I love dogs. I figured why not get back into it. I am a student at UBalt, working part time remotely. I work Thursday to Saturday from home. My schedule is very open at the moment. I have a toddler so I am very sweet and caring but I also love to play (carefully) so if your dog has a lot of energy I can handle that and still be careful and attentive

About: I have been taking care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors since I was a kid and love dogs of all kinds. I can meet a dog at any energy level, and especially love going for walks/hikes in nature. I also volunteer for the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter's Dog Day Out program, taking shelter dogs for a day of fun and freedom outside the facility. I am currently a graduate student and have the summer off from my academic work, so my schedule is very flexible in terms of pet care. I am not able to host pets at my home since I live in an apartment, but am happy to take care of animals in any setting and abide respectfully by all requests about a home!

Rebecca was amazing. She did great with our shy dog Epi. She was thoughtful and caring, and Epi warmed up to her quickly. Rebecca went above and beyond, trying to make sure our dog was safe and cared for. I cannot recommend her enough.

Alex was so warm, calm, and easygoing that he immediately made us feel comfortable, especially since this was our first time hiring a pet sitter. He took the time to get to know our husky, listened carefully to all of our instructions, and made sure our pup was well cared for, walked, and able to go potty. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. Thank you, Alex, for making our first Rover experience such a positive and wonderful one!

Dog Walking FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Downtown dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Downtown.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
