About: I come from a farming background, and have cared for dogs and cats in a variety of environments. I worked as a livestock manager for farming operations a total of 5+ years, besides having owned and raised many of my own pets since I was a kid. I have often volunteered to pet sit for friends and relatives, including both dogs and cats. I can handle all basic daily needs, feeding, walking, monitoring, and even administer medications if required. I am on a seasonal break for the holidays, and looking to supplement my income. I can visit daily within a reasonable distance, or stay overnights when required. Aside from some dates I will block out around Christmas, I have open availability! I will come to you for pet care. Cats will be fed according to their schedule, litter cleaned daily. Dogs will be walked at or near feeding times, and let out for potty breaks as needed throughout the day. Lots of love given at all times! If there are other medical needs I will need details of their care when setting up an appointment.

About: I’ve been caretaking for all types of animals for over 15 years. From training puppies to pampering seniors & everything between, I’ve been the go-to for neighbors, friends & family when it comes to their pet care needs. As a farmer, I have a flexible schedule to provide for your needs & have been a farm-sitter for many satisfied folks! I work part-time (have those days blocked off my pet care calendar), so I will be able to give 100% of my time to your pet(s). I am available during the day to walk your pet(s), give them a potty break, play with them, feed them, show them attention & so on. I am also available for doggie daycare in my home where I can provide utmost safety & playtime. My care regimen is flexible & can be catered to individuals’ needs. I have a large yard & many spare 15-20ft leashes to keep your pet safe while providing quality playtime. I also have a dog to help keep your fur baby company while in my care! Your dog can hang out with us in my home, or upon your request I can crate your fur baby & take them out for as many walks/potty/play breaks as you’d like.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11yo. I’ve cared for Australian Shepherds, Poodles, Rat Terriers, Cairn Terriers, Papillions, Irish Wolfhounds, Pit Bulls, Bichon Frisés, and more. I have four dogs now: German Shepherd Mix, German Shorthaired Pointer, and two Pembroke Corgis. I’m familiar with small and large dogs. I’m non-judgmental and understanding if your baby has separation-anxiety. I work 8AM to 4PM Monday through Thursday, but am free to watch your babies in the evening and Friday through Sunday. I provide drop-in visits and house-sitting. I have a fenced-in yard, two crates and four dogs all ready to be their new best friend! I do prefer to watch them in your home, not mine as I have one dog that isn’t the most friendly.

About: Licensed and Insured!! Dogs have been my passion for as long as I can remember. I’m a certified professional dog trainer with experience working with puppies, adolescent dogs, senior dogs, and dogs with behavioral challenges. My background includes puppy development, obedience training, leash manners, confidence building, behavior modification, fear and reactivity work, environmental exposure, scent work, service dog foundations, and remote collar conditioning. Whether I’m caring for your dog or working on training, my goal is always to provide safe, structured, compassionate care. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. Every dog is treated like family, while maintaining healthy structure and routine. I believe every dog is an individual. So I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, comfort level, and needs. So they feel safe and secure during their stay. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because dogs are already a central part of both my personal and professional life. As a certified dog trainer and owner of KinetiK9 Dog Training, I structure my schedule around the care, exercise, and enrichment of dogs every day. This allows me to provide reliable, attentive care while ensuring each pet receives the attention, exercise, potty breaks, and companionship they need. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding routines, medication administration, or overnight care, I am committed to making each pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away. Your dog’s safety is my highest priority. So I closely supervise and follow instructions carefully. Before booking, please let me know about any medical conditions, medications, allergies, behavioral concerns, triggers, or favorite routines. The more I know, the better I can care for them. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. And I don’t take that lightly. My goal is to give you peace of mind while providing your dog with active adventure or a comfy companion while you’re away.

About: When I’m pet sitting your best friends, they will receive Play Time, Constant Attention, Affection, Love, as well as a safe environment to be in. Animals are my passion and are a ginormous part of my life. I will go above and beyond for your four-legged best friend 💪🏽 after all…. It’s what they deserve for their undying loyalty. I’m currently a student who studies virtually from home. I have open availability throughout the entire week. Being a student allows me to have a lot of free time. Your fur babies will be exercised, loved, and be safe at all times with me. I look forward to taking care of your best friend I have a dog named Bear who’s an absolute sweetheart. His daily schedule is eating supplements, vitamins, and his food once in the morning and once at night. He takes 1-2 hour daily trips to the Dog Park, and well as receiving constant affection and love. Your dog deserves the same treatment.

About: My entire life I have been raised around large breed dogs, cats, and fish. I am also familiar with reptile, monkey, equestrian, farm animal, and small mammal care. Such as cleaning pens, feedings, cleaning tanks, ear canal cleanings, nail trimming, bathing, and deshedding! The personal pets you see listed on my profile are 100% accurate as well, most people find it shocking but I’ve always been raised around an entire pack of animals and they are all in the best health with the most love we could possibly surround them with! I am completely available to watch your animals! I am hoping to make this a full time job, so please book me for your long trips, and daily walks! I can ensure that I will leave your house cleaner than when I arrived. My parents run 5 AirBnB cabins, and I am the housekeeper for the guests to ensure sanitary sheets, towels, and plates/dishes are provided. As well as a well kept, and clean living environment while they enjoy our stay with us! I was previously a school custodian for South Warren Middle School in Bowling Green, KY, so cleaning was a daily job for me and I thoroughly enjoy it. Now I hope to love on animals and make sure that THEY stay in a sanitary and clean environment.

About: I’ve grown up around multiple animals, having dogs and cats and other exotic animals. I also used to watch neighbor’s pets if they needed me to. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I am a college student who is always on the move and looking for new adventures to go on! I do not offer pet sitting in my own home due to living in an apartment with roommates, but depending on your living situation I always make it fun for the animal wether that’s playing outside or going on a walk.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life—I have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and small pets. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or needs special care, I take the time to understand their personality and make them feel safe and loved. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love what I do. Let me give your pet the care and attention they deserve while you’re gone! I work part-time, so I have a lot of flexibility during the week and on weekends. I can usually fit in morning and evening visits, and I’m happy to adjust where I can to fit your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in your home or mine, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of love, structure, and attention. I take time to learn each animal’s routine, dietary needs, and quirks so they feel safe and understood. In your home, I always treat your space with respect—keeping things clean and sticking to your pet’s usual routine to reduce stress. I provide regular check-ins, photos, and updates so you always know your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s a dog who needs long walks or a shy cat who prefers a quiet spot, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel secure and cared for every step of the way.

About: I have cared for just about every animal type - dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and a few exotic reptiles and amphibians. In that scope, I’ve managed surprise litters, caring for young and senior pets with all their needs. I’m currently working from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I will have my elementary age kids and our senior dog with me every other week, and we’re unfortunately allergic to cats. I have a large fenced in yard, plus my own dog every other week. She is a bit picky about other dogs depending on their size, age, and personality.

About: Hi, I'm Danny! I’m a dog trainer and enrichment-focused sitter based in Nashville, TN. I’ve been working with dogs for over 20 years, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and what makes them happy. While I do great with all dogs, I especially have a soft spot for high-energy pups and strong personalities — the ones people often say are “a lot of dog.” Whether it’s a German Shepherd, Malinois, Rottweiler, or just an energetic family dog that needs more structure, I’m here to help them succeed. My approach is simple: your dog doesn’t just get watched — they get engaged. Every visit includes some level of enrichment, whether that’s structured walks, light training, play, or helping reinforce good habits. This keeps your dog mentally stimulated, which usually means a calmer, happier pup when you get home. I’ve also worked with: Puppies who are still learning the basics (potty training, routines, etc.) Senior dogs who need a slower, more patient approach Dogs with special needs, including hearing or vision loss Reactive or strong-willed dogs that need someone confident and consistent No matter the dog, I adjust to their needs and energy. I work from home full-time, so your dog gets real attention — not someone rushing in and out between a busy schedule. I also make sure you stay updated with photos, videos, and clear communication so you always feel at ease. At the end of the day, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs calm companionship or someone who can match their energy, you can count on me to show up with patience, structure, and genuine care. If you think we’d be a good fit, feel free to reach out — I’d love to meet you and your dog! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, complementing my outdoor adventures and entrepreneurial endeavors. While I cherish my time in nature, I ensure that my furry friends receive ample love and attention during indoor moments, especially as I work on e-commerce platforms that celebrate my profound affection for dogs. Whether it's romping through the great outdoors or nurturing my digital ventures, pet care remains a cherished priority woven into the fabric of my life. At both my home and my client's, your pet's well-being is my top priority. They'll receive constant supervision under my watchful eye. If I need to step out briefly, your pet will either accompany me or stay in our specially designated play area. This secure space is equipped with all the essentials: water, a cozy bed, doggie TV for entertainment, and a camera for continuous monitoring, ensuring their safety and comfort at all times. Your pet's happiness and security are paramount in every aspect of their care with me.

About: I have been taking care of different pets throughout my childhood as well as recently with several dog walking, and sitting experiences. My families house has several cats and dogs so I know my experience with them will be useful for other pets I sit. I am currently working part time but my job hours are flexible so I am able to switch around if offers come up last minute I have a fenced backyard to allow the dog maximum space to roam. I am not uptight on keeping them off couches due to me having hand me downs but will respect and follow any guidelines the parents have

About: I’ve taken care of dogs/cats of every kind for 10+ years. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, play with and bathe their pets. I have experience in medicine giving, grooming and other special needs. Open availability Monday to Sunday. I’m currently looking to walk and do drop ins. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m always moving around and staying in tune with their needs. It’s just part of the rhythm of my day, and I truly enjoy the responsibility and connection that comes with caring for them. When it comes to caring for pets, I focus on making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well-loved, just like I do with my own animals. I tailor my care based on the needs of each pet, whether that means sticking to a specific feeding routine, giving them time to play and exercise, or simply being a calm, reassuring presence. Whether it’s in my home or a client’s, I treat every animal like family!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Elmwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 380 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Elmwood. 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 Elmwood. 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 Elmwood.

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 Elmwood. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
