About: My life is catered towards animals. I work as a Canine Coach at a local small business where I guide up to 50 dogs to have a fun and safe day each day. With my own animals I love hiking, various dog sports, adventures and training for fun. I have fostered numerous puppies for a local rescue and trained them until they found their forever homes. I rescued my own dog and helped him build his confidence, he was extremely fearful even afraid of me and he has blossomed in my care. I work at a local doggy daycare during the week not far from my home. In the morning all pets get individual attention and exercise before breakfast when i go to work. Each animal has their own private area to relax during the day. At lunch time everyone gets a potty break and an interactive game. At dinner they again get individual attention that meets their needs. Everyone sleeps in the bedroom with me overnight. Weekends we go on lots of adventures and play all day long. I will follow any and all instructions you provide so don’t hesitate to ask. No request is too big and I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is perfectly cared for.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 5 years old and have grown up with both bunnies, cats and dogs of all sizes, giving me over 13 years of hands on experience. Throughout the years, I’ve helped with feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so I’m committed to following your instructions and providing patient, dependable, and loving care. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply giving your pet companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love, attention, and respect that I give my own pets. I am currently working part time so I am available early morning and afternoons up until 3/4/5pm during the weekdays and weekends. Pet care has been a part of my daily life since I was a child. I currently care for my own cats every day by feeding them, cleaning their litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. I also have experience caring for dogs, including walks, exercise, feeding, and companionship. I work part-time in the evenings, which leaves my mornings and afternoons available for pet care. When house sitting, I’ll make sure your pet’s routine is followed closely and that they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed and instructed), playtime, and any special requests. I prioritize your pet’s safety by keeping a close eye on them during walks and outdoor time, making sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I also understand the importance of respecting your home, keeping it clean, and providing regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel happy and cared for in the environment they’re most comfortable in their own home.

About: I am a local environmental science student with extensive experience in professional pet and house sitting. Having grown up with dogs and cats, I have provided dependable care for repeat clients since the age of 12. I would welcome the opportunity to care for your animals and can provide references upon request. I am a local college student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to commit to various shifts. I am generally available to work during evenings and on weekends. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my availability aligns with your current needs. Caring for my own two dogs led me to discover a passion for working with animals, and I am now seeking opportunities to gain professional experience as I pursue a career in this field. To ensure both you and your pets are comfortable, I typically offer a pre-visit to meet in person. This allows us to discuss your specific care instructions and ensures you are confident in my services as a caretaker.

About: I have had pets since a child (duck, rabbit, dogs, cats, iguanas) and just love them. I let dogs take their time when exploring and I don’t rush them unless I see that they have found a Scooby snack. Most dogs prefer to sit in my lap even when in the presence of their owner. They love me and I love them even the sassiest of them. I work from home which allows me to be available 24 hours a day. If your pet is a foodie, they will love it here (salmon bites, duck necks, chicken feet, ice cream, pup cups and frozen fruit on hot days). I will send an update the first evening and the morning after so you are certain that they have settled in. Thereafter I will send a picture or video daily but you are welcomed to check in at any time. My assistant Imani (my mom who lives with and assists with sitting), also enjoys loving on and helping with your babies. She may help with check in/ check out and walks. **I now have a cat and cannot accept dogs that aren’t cat friendly. I also cannot accept unfixed dogs and dogs that aren’t housebroken. I walk 3-5 miles in the morning and another in the evenings (less depending on the weather). I would love to take your baby along. I have a friendly dog. I use baby gates and can also crate your dog (you must bring the crate with you). They would sleep in my bedroom on the dog beds and have free range of the house (except the kitchen which has a gate up).

About: Starting at the age of 11 up to today I have been trusted to take care, bathe and feed animals in my neighborhood, friends and family. I’m well at observing and giving medication if needed for older pets but also can be playful and help with the puppies/kittens as well! I currently work at an animal hospital which helps in my knowledge of feeding and taking care of pets. I work part time, mainly mornings but I’m willing to work around that if needed. I am available on weekends and holidays to take care of your pets needs. I can usually make something work around my schedule. At my house, there is acres of land and space. I have two very friendly dogs which I can either keep away or keep your pet company whichever is fine. For the clients home, I’m willing to work with whatever situation/care is needed

About: I work remotely from home on my computer so I spend a lot of time at home and my hours are flexible. I like to go out and get exercise during the day which is a great opportunity for me to also walk the dogs so your pups will get plenty of exercises. I've been an around dogs my whole life. I had a fun energetic husky growing up and now I have a chill Cotton De Tulier as my best friend. We get into a lot of crazy adventure together. I love taking road trip with my dog to the beach in the summer. Dogs are up for anything and they are the best companion. I love to have more dog if I can afford it but this gig seems like a great idea to have more dogs as well. A lot of people have to give away their dogs to shelters because they can't take care of them and that's really sad. This is my way of making a contribution so people can keep their best friend and still find time to do things they need to do. Hope I can be a great help and looking forward to meeting you and your dog.

About: I’ve dog sat over twenty dogs in the last few years, many repeated clients. Some I’d come by and hang out with them, some would stay at my house depending on behavior, needs, and preference . I’m generally flexible but will have unmovable classes. I can spend time with the animals depending on your expectations. Or just quick walks throughout the week. Based on the expectations of the owner. I let them have explore the house, work to gain their trust and then take them on early morning walks. Ensure the house is taken care of by locking up, any plants are taken care of etc.

About: Hey there! I'm Ambrosia! You can call me Amber. I've been caring for pets for as long as I've been caring for babies. See it goes hand in hand. Every baby that I've nannied usually has a furry frind with them. The fur baby came first then the actually baby. When caring for the baby I often took a liking to the furry friend too. That meant playing and feeding the dog whenever I wasn't taking care of the baby. Often times I would let the dog out to do his buisness. When the child got older and we went on walks the dog of couse came too. As a former athlete and someone who lives an active lifestyle, I love going on walks and runs. So if your dog is a runner that's no problem for me; just let me know. Just like kids, I can understand the fustration when a pet does not listen. Being a nanny helped me to gain a lot of patience, so if your pup isn't a good listener it's ok! Ms. Amber has the time to wait it out. On the other side of that we all love a little reward so don't be shy to let me know if you have a reward system for your pet. I love dogs yound and old! As caregiver I strive to give your pet the best experience while they are in my care. I look forward to meeting and tking care of your furry friend! As I am not working a traditinal job right now, my schedule is pretty flexiable. Pet care can fit into my daily routine around your pets needs. Whether that be for an early morning walk or a a mid day pop in for cuddles and play, I can be the sitter you rely on. When caring for your fur baby in your home, I strive to keep a clean and safe enviorment for your pet and myself. Any mess that might have been made while caring for your pet will be cleaned up. I want your pet to have the best experience with me and whatever malkes them comfortable with me I'll do. I understand that we all need time to warm up to eachother. I keep a calm attitude and love to givethe equal amout of space and cuddles.

“Yeji came three time a day to walk Eilidh while I was recovering from surgery. She was friendly, communicative, and arrived on time. Most importantly, she treated my fur baby well, giving her affection and some much needed exercise/potty time. I will definitely reach out to Yeji if I ever need help again.”

Alyssa goes ABOVE and BEYOND for your pets. Over the last couple of months, she has been patient with us and our scheduling woes, and absolutely lovely for our pup to the point where she runs to the window for every car in the driveway in hopes that it’s Alyssa. I could not recommend her more, but will be upset if we have to share her. Thank you Alyssa!!!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Eldersburg is $19 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $36 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 October 2026, there are 12,129 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Eldersburg. 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 Eldersburg. 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 , 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 Eldersburg 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 , 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 .

  • 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
