About: I've had dogs growing up, five of them being German shepherds and the other four being a lab and two mutts and a dachshund, and we've had tons of cats. We currently have two German shepherds and I walk them a ton and I spend a lot of time taking care of them, and then we have a dachshund who I just rescued from the place I work at. The place I worked at does dog boarding/daycare/training. I was a kennel tech so I just took care of all the boarding and daycare doggies. And on the weekends I also took care of all the training dogs when/if the trainers were away. I worked there for over year and loved it, only leaving because I started college and moved away. I have had to deal with so many different dogs and their personalities and I've definitely learned to have a ton of patience with the job. I have been working in general since I was 14. I started at some neighbouring farms, doing farm work so I could ride their horses and earn some money. I then did a couple restaurant jobs and then found the place I currently work at. I have done dog sitting and cat sitting before many times, sometimes for family or friends of family who I don't know but I am happy to help out. The most I have dealt with at one time was seven dogs in total. I have watched people's dogs get trained while at work and I have been trained to use an e-collar and a prong collar so I am able to use those correctly! I really loves my job, it means a lot to me I get to be in that environment and I'm depended on to keep them all safe and happy. And I am a second year student at Muskingum University, I am majoring in Animal Studies in hopes of having an animal conservation related job. I'm a college student and normally drop in between classes and have the rest of the day to tend to pet's. During the summer I am usually employed and work around my schedule At home I spend time walking the dogs mostly and hanging around the house with them. Every client I feel is different in how things are done at their home, so however you take care of your pets I'll follow

About: Through high school I work at an animal health store. I’ve also lived on a farm since a young age, in addition I have cared for my familles exotic petting zoo through my teens! While caring for some pretty cool animals species I’ve always loved dogs the most, and have loved every single one I’ve met! Hello, currently I am no longer taking anymore bookings, thank you! I work during the day between 6:30 am and 2:30 pm, so I cannot see your fur babies then! I have a large fenced in back yard and 1 very friendly mini poodle named Sandy to keep yours company! I can easily crate her if needed

Bri was exactly who we needed! She was so patient with one of my guys who needed some extra time to warm up and was equally attentive to my other guy. I am very grateful to her for providing such good care!

About: Animals bring joy to the world 💜 I always enjoy having new animals stay. Socialization is important for dogs and my family does a great job to insure everyone is comfortable and in good spirits. Dogs are gifts to people in my opinion. I give back by welcoming them in the home. 🤍 I work at a Veterinarian Clinic, my schedule can vary but I will always do my best to accommodate your animals needs. I can be flexible for boarding. I have a fenced in back yard. I am located right on the lake so I always take my dogs for walks, and golf cart runs by the lake. I have two dogs and two cats at home. They get along really well with all critters.

About: I am a veterinary technician with 14 years of experience living in Bolivar, OH . I'm looking to provide services through Rover to get out and explore the area while making some extra income so my furry family can keep living the high life- you know those chew toys aren't cheap ;) I would love to do dog walks so that I can get those daily steps in- a slimmer waistline is good for people AND pets! I also love the idea of "check ins" to help get those zoomies out while you're at work! I have 4pets of my own- 2 cats and two dogs, all rescues. You could say it's an occupational hazard! I can't wait to meet you! I especially love getting out for dog walks, it's the motivation I need to get my steps in every day! I work part time, and my schedule is flexible. I only care for pets in their own homes, because I like to keep your pets, and my pets, as close to their normal schedule as possible.

About: It seems as if I've always had a cat or dog or both since I was in grade school. At this time I have many kitties and one dog. Some of my kitties are foster kitties. Some I can pet and others I enjoy from a distance. I have 1 dog named Frannie. She is possibly a Rottweiler shepherd mix. In the past I grew up with a standard poodle. I have had a shepherd mix, another Rottweiler mix and a pit mix. I have seen all my dogs and cats thru to the rainbow bridge. I have fostered a litter of labrador puppies. That was fun! I currently help my mom with her pug mix named Chloe. I am currently working part time at a pre-school. I have Mondays, weekends, holidays and the summers off. I work until noon Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays until 3pm I would need to make sure your pets are cared for before I go to work @7:15am. I have a neighbor who helps me let my dog out while I'm at work, so I would be free after work to check on your animal(s). I would then need to come back to my house and take care of my animals and then go back to check on yours. I could do that as often as needed and then longer thru the night. I anticipate every situation to be different so depending on the need. I would be able to keep kitties in my spare bedroom. I have a large screen door to put in front of the bedroom door to keep them separate from my animals if needed. I am flexible to what the needs may be

About: Animals have been a constant in my life, and over the years I've owned dogs, cats, rats, mice, guinea pigs, hamsters, and even hatched eggs via an incubator. That kind of variety builds real hands-on experience, a calm comfort around all breeds and temperaments, and a deep respect for the responsibility of caring for another living thing. What animals want most is attention, and that's something I have no shortage of. Your pet won't just be watched — they'll be engaged, cared for, and treated like family. Whether it's a walk, a feeding, or house sitting, you can count on me to show up and give your pet exactly what they need. My schedule is flexible and I can almost always make time — just reach out ahead of time. I'll follow any special instructions, respect off-limit rooms, and stick to whatever routine works best for your pet. My schedules pretty much open I could always make time if need be. As long as it's scheduled ahead of time my schedule is opened. I would care for their pets just as they would. Any special instructions of course I would follow. Any rooms that are off limits, limit the outside time etc

About: I'm a very reliable, caring, and responsible dog lover! I have been pet sitting for friends and family for around 12 years (big and little dogs, high anxiety, nervous dogs, dogs with medical needs, dietary needs). I don’t own any animals currently and would take care of your pet like my own. I enjoy going on walks, going to dog parks, playing fetch, tug, playing with mind/strategy toys, and giving healthy treats to help train a certain trick or correct a behavior. I enjoy playing one on one with dogs, or several dogs at once. I look forward to working with you to accommodate any requests to make you and your pet/s comfortable. Dogs are part of a family and I hope you chose me to be part of their lives! I currently set my own work schedule, so I'm very flexible with what you and your pets needs are! I will follow your instructions so your pet is comfortable with their regular process of how they do things. I'm looking forward to working with you and hanging out with your lovely pets!! I am able to follow any instructions needed for your pets. I want them to be comfortable in their regular routine, especially with a new person taking care of them! Their comfort and the owners comfort are very important to me.

About: I love all animals, right now I only take care of my own two guinea pigs but I wish I had a dog or cat to take care of! I used to babysit two cats and one of them had diabetes so I know how to do that if your pets need at home shots! I am always off work Wednesdays but there are a few days I work every other week and can take care of of your pets mostly in the morning on those days but Wednesdays is all day if needed! I will play with them, I will make sure they get the right amount of exercise, I will make sure they are fed when needed and give them extra cuddles too!

About: I have had almost every type of animal there is from hamsters to horses! I am currently in college to become a vet tech. I have been walking dogs as a side job but I’m working to build a bigger clientele. Currently in college and I have morning classes from 8:30-11:30 Monday through Thursday. I already walk dogs once a week but I am hoping to get more work as I’m working to make this my main job. I baby my pets a lot they are very spoiled and I will treat yours the same! My dog gets walked twice a day and is very pampered with regular grooming. My cat gets a lot of treats and has at least 2 long play sessions and I go to see my horse who unfortunately doesn’t live in my backyard almost everyday to groom her and ride. All of my animals stay up to date on vet visits and any other needs.

FAQs for Dog Walking - East Sparta

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 674 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across East Sparta. 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 East Sparta. 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 East Sparta.

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 East Sparta. On Rover:

  • 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
