I am so glad we found Ashlee. She arrived on time and immediately connected in a lovely way with my pup, Murphy. I was able to accomplish my errands with my mind completely at ease. Ashlee is kind friendly capable and experienced. I highly recommend her services.

Lacie was such a blessing! We were on vacation for a week and couldn't take our spoiled pups with us. We did have a family member housesitting for us, but they were gone most of the day for work so we had Lacie stop by to check on them and let them out every other day. She went above and beyond! She showed up on days we couldn't originally afford or schedule, just because she truly cares. She also helped with cleaning up the dog area and other little things that we didn't ask for. She kept in touch and provided updates and made us feel at ease. I know the dogs are very grateful that we found her! Most definitley would use her again for anything!

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember and have years of experience caring for them through every stage of life. Today, my wife and I care for our Australian Cattle Dog, Dakota, whom we adopted when she was a year old. Training Dakota has given me valuable experience in understanding canine body language, behavior, and communication. I’ve learned how to recognize signs of stress, excitement, fear, and overstimulation, and how to respond in a calm, positive way to help dogs feel safe and comfortable. Whether we’re out on walks, visiting public places, or relaxing at home, I’m always attentive to a dog’s needs and surroundings. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic care, maintaining routines, providing exercise and enrichment, and giving each dog the patience and attention they deserve. Every dog has a unique personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel happy, secure, and loved. Above all, I believe every pet should be treated with the same care, respect, and affection that I’d want for my own! I’m currently a full-time online student and teach online part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pup! I can build my own schedule, so I'm fully available. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in the comfort of their own home and follow their normal routine. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care that helps them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other routines that are important to your pet. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can make sure your dog is comfortable and enjoying our time together. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, taking your dog on a walk, or staying in your home, I’ll treat your pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care and attention I’d want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

Alexis has been walking my dog Toast for some time now. He has a lot of energy. And she is able to brisk walk with him to get all that energy out! She is also very good about communication, and gets back to you quickly. She has accommodated me on short notice numerous times when I have been in a jam!

Mallory walked our dogs everyday while we were away. The dogs warmed right up and were excited to get their walk. Mallory was dependable and always walked them for the agreed upon duration, or longer. We will definitely ask Mallory to walk our dogs the next time we’re away.

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was about 10 years old. I’ve helped train puppies from a young age, and nursed kittens from 3-weeks old. More recently I’ve helped nurse and rehabilitate my senior dog after her major ACL surgery. She was sling bound for 6 weeks so I feel very comfortable with a large range of ages, and needs in cats and dogs. I have a huge love for all animals and believe all of them deserve love and care just like humans! I’m also here because my lovely fiancé and I just got engaged this past summer. I’m hoping to save up and earn as much money as I can to help host our dream wedding here in the mountains next year! We both love our babies and I would be happy to give your fur babies that same love and support ☺️ UPDATE: Sadly I can no longer provide overnight sittings. I AM available to do a sitting that does not require me to stay at your home overnight. I understand if this prevents you from hiring me for a sitting. I currently work remote full-time but do have some flexibility in my schedule to fit in drop-ins and walks. Wednesdays are usually when I have the most calls, but of course can try and work around my and your schedule. I’m happy to come to your home to give you that reassurance that your fur baby is doing okay while you’re away. As I said, I work fully remote so my pets pretty much have constant care unless I’m traveling for work. I typically let my dog out about 3-4 times a day depending on her needs, so I’m happy to do the same for your dog. She gets fed twice a day, as well as my cat. Every now and then we will switch out dry food for wet food just to give them both some variety, so I’m happy to do the same for your pet. You and your pet’s comfortability are my priority so I’m happy to cater to your preferences.

About: I've grown up with several cats. My best friend and the love of my life is a tabby cat I've had since I was 12 years old. I didn't have a dog growing up but I frequently cared for my neighbors Great Pyrenees. My first dog as an adult was a rescue coonhound mix and my current dog is a purebred Redbone Coonhound. I live in an apartment with 2 cats and a dog. I work part time at Food Lion, but I'm wanting to be a full-time pet sitter. Humans are too complicated for me. Plus it gives me the opportunity to spend more time with my dog! I live in an apartment but I'm very active. I utilize all the trails and parks in the area and I bring along my buddy Kashmir, my Redbone Coonhound puppy who loves other dogs!

Enthusiastically recommend Thomas for their exceptional service! Not only is he incredibly communicative and prompt, but he consistently went above and beyond to care for our beloved dog. He kept us updated with thorough reports after each walk, ensuring peace of mind. Our pup adores him. Trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated, Thomas is simply outstanding in every aspect!"

Louise is obviously a dog person. I appreciated having a meet and greet before hand. My pup felt immediately comfortable with her and so did I. Louise showed up when she said she would, took time for walks and play and my pup and home were in great shape when i got home. I will definitely use her again when in area.

About: I have been taking care of other people's animals since middle school and just love getting to know your pets! Experience with dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, and fish! Willing to take on pets with medical needs! I work 40 hours over 5 days days a week. I am typically away from the house from 9 am - 5 pm or 11 am - 7 pm. Depending on your location, I may be able to pop back to the house on my short lunch break. I am comfortable walking your animals on leashes, pushing them in strollers, using a treadmill, playing with them in the yard, or whatever else is your routine and preference!

About: Hello! I’m Sam, an entrepreneur, artist, animal lover, traveler, and mom to Benny, the sweetest 11-year-old ever. We love to explore new places, but we firmly believe that life is better with furry friends, so house-sitting has become a perfect fit for us! Sometimes we come as a house-sitting team and sometimes (while he is with his dad), I travel solo. For drop-in visits and dog-walks, I typically come solo, but I will always communicate this ahead of time if that changes! I was raised with German Shepherds and Yorkies, so big or small, I love them all! We’ve rescued three feral kittens who’ve become the biggest loves and rule our house. Our last pup rescue, Ellie, was a mix who was equal parts love-bug and wild-child so I’m quite comfortable with dogs who need extra exercise to tire them out as well as older dogs that just want to snooze on the couch. (We have a 3 generation household and my mom's pup is a senior Yorkie who is deaf and mostly blind...so I have lots of experience dealing with special needs dogs, medications, etc) We’ve watched numerous dogs, cats, both indoor friends and barn cats, as well as a horse, a donkey, a few guinea pigs, and lots of chickens. Plus we love caring for gardens, filling bird feeders, and tending to a home. I work from home, running an online business, so my schedule is quite flexible. I love to walk dogs while my son is at school or take them for hikes with the kiddo on the weekends. Whether we are tending to horses on a farm or cat-sitting in a big city, we believe a home should be respected and cared for and animals should be treated as family. Our sweetheart Ridgeback mix, Ellie, passed away in 2021 and house-sitting has helped our hearts to heal as we have had the opportunity to care for such amazing fur babies as we travel. We can’t wait until we buy a home and can once again have a dog of our own, but until then, we are so thankful to be able to love on the pets we watch!

About: Expert in ear scratches for critters big and small. I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I love to run, if you’re looking to get exercise for your pup. I also have experience with senior animals that just want to snuggle. I’m available every weekend and work part time during the week. I can work walks or runs in with your pet during the week the week as well. I’d love to check on your pet in the comfort of their home, where all their favorite toys and treats are. I’m looking forward to scheduling!

About: I have always had a dog, and currently have a super sweet and high energy vizsla/pit bull mix. She loves to run and so do I. I've spent years volunteering at the Humane Society walking dogs, and have done several adoption events with Mountain Pet Rescue. I work from home and am flexible with my availability. I am usually available on short notice if necessary and can check on your pet any day of the week. I am happy to follow whatever routine your pet is used to. I understand how important schedules are for some pets and will make sure they are kept on the schedule that they are familiar with. We can go for walks, play in the yard, or work on commands inside the home if it's raining and they need mental stimulation. Or we can cuddle up on the couch if that's their vibe.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Etowah

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Etowah on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 1,358 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Etowah. 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 Etowah. 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 Etowah.

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 Etowah. On Rover:

  • 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
