About: I currently have an open schedule and can come walk and play with your dogs and cats as early or as late as you would like! I am flexible. I've just moved to Vienna, live alone, and have an open schedule. I am flexible and reliable, and would love to play with and care for your dogs and cats! I took care of up to 5 cats and 1 human, simultaneously, for 14 years. They received a lot of my love and attention. We spent lots of time in nature trails, our backyard, and on the couch. And now I'm happy to extend that to your dogs!

About: I grew up with 4 German shepherds and currently have a baby golden doodle. He is so energetic and very friendly to everyone he meets. Im current a full time college student which gives me flexible time to work and attend classes. This also means I can rearrange my schedule to fit the things I need to do outside of my in person classes. I provide loving, reliable care by following each pet's routine, including feeding, fresh water, exercise, and playtime. In a client's home, I follow their instructions and keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment.

About: My experience comes from watching my friends’ pets while they travel, as I've been more than happy handling walks, feeding, and giving lots of cuddles. I maintain a very active lifestyle, and a work-from-home schedule that means your pet gets real attention, not a quick drop-in. I’ll send updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing, and doing a meet-and-greet is necessary to make sure we're on the same page. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches. I'm very active and can easily step away for midday walks, potty breaks, and playtime. I’m happy to work around your schedule. I will always keep your dogs leashed on walks, follow your feeding and medication routines exactly, and keep your contact info and your vet’s info handy.

About: I’ve fostered and cared for animals since I was little, working for Animal Rescue League in Boston. Highly experienced with big dogs and cats/kittens. Owner of Great Pyrenees, Bernese, and two cats. I'm a teacher with open evenings and weekends, and love spending that time with animals. Whether that's a walk outside or checking in on a pet at home, I'm happy to make sure your pets are cared for and content! I am super experienced in pet care— including animal/wildlife rehabilitation. Very mindful of what’s safe for dogs and cats of all social levels, and how to keep them calm and happy. After years of working with animal shelters as a foster home, I love working with all kinds of pets!

About: Only one Guest Dog at a time. All the love and attention they deserve. Dynamic father and son duo, Michael & Michael! We are experienced pet caretakers and genuine dog lover. We are knowledgeable in dog walking, feeding, nutrition, teeth brushing, and other routine care, and can handle dogs of all sizes, with a specialization in doodles. Most importantly, we focus on the dog’s emotional well-being and would take time to understand each dog’s individual needs, respecting their own routines and boundaries. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to devote plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care. From regular walks and playtime to meals, rest, and companionship, I make sure each dog’s needs are thoughtfully incorporated into my day. My son-in-law Michael would provide back-up support. We have a spacious townhome with a fully fenced backyard and a big deck for dogs to play and live in. We have thoughtfully designed our home to divide it into different sections for our dog Max’s needs: a feeding area, a day-time sleeping area, a play area, as well as a window watching area. Any pup we welcome into our home will join Max and have a safe, fun, and relaxing time. For drop in visits in our client’s home, I will be ultra respectful to the client’s space, accurately following instructions. I will also prioritize maintaining the dogs’ familiar routines.

About: For me, pets are more than animals — they’re family. I believe every pet deserves patience, affection, attention, and care that makes them feel safe and loved. I’m responsible, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s unique routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same kindness and respect I’d want for my own, and I’ll do my best to make every visit a happy one! I balance pet care with my regular work schedule and make an effort to be dependable, organized, and communicative with every pet parent. I can coordinate visits, walks, and sitting around my availability, including evenings and weekends when arranged in advance. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and bedtime routines. I’ll also keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in caring hands! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll take the time to understand their personality, habits, feeding instructions, and any special needs before caring for them. I’m happy to follow your house rules, keep doors and gates secure, use leashes properly, and make sure your pet has fresh water and a clean, comfortable environment. I also believe communication matters, so I’ll gladly send photo updates and messages to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Every pet deserves to feel safe, respected, and loved!

About: I have had a dog since I could remember. I’ve had my two personal dogs since they were puppies. I actually cared for my last dog, who was blind, until I had to put her down at 16 years old. Friends trust me with their pets because they know I’m going to love and care for them as they would. They always say their pets had a better vacation with me than my friends may have had. I’m currently working part-time, and am off Thursday-Sunday. I am also completely off work the week of holidays. I work 15 minutes from work, and typically come home at lunch. I care for pets in my home by keeping it clean and clear of anything that could harm a pet. I have many dog parks in my area, and an awesome neighborhood for walks.

About: Hello, I’m Camille! I’ve been an animal lover all my life. Growing up with medium and large dogs, including Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Husky, Blue Heeler, Labradors and Golden Retrievers, I have over 10 years of experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments.

Not only am I keeping a watch to make sure your dogs physical needs are met but also that they are happy and engaged mentally.

Alison walked my dog on the days I worked for over a year, and I truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was always reliable, caring, and so accommodating with my odd hours and schedule changes. My dog is very shy and usually takes a while to trust new people, but she loved Alison from the moment they met, which meant so much to me. I never had to worry when she was with Alison because I knew she was in loving, trustworthy hands. I’m so grateful for the care she gave her and would highly recommend Alison to anyone!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Dunn Loring

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Dunn Loring is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $31 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.

As of November 2026, there are 15,569 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Dunn Loring. 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 Dunn Loring. 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 Dunn Loring 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 Dunn Loring. On Rover:

  • 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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 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.
