“Melody and Rufus enjoyed their time with Anne. Anne took great care of them both and we will be having her take them both for walks weekly. Thank you for being so great with our dogs💕”
“Natascha was an amazing rover for Kirk! He enjoyed being walked by her so much, he walked more then the will let me walk him. Very understanding and great with Kirk and his shyness of other dogs!”
“Amanda accepted the assignment on short notice and communicated well about her availability and expected arrival time. Despite the rainy, cold weather she got Mack out for a long walk and managed his energy well. She clearly has a love of dogs.”
“My dogs just love Solace! She is a skilled animal handler (yes, big doggies included). She is firm and kind and loving as well as highly reliable. I cannot recommend Solace enough 😎👏🏼”
“Mary Elizabeth instantly made and my pups feel at ease. She’s very personable and has great experience with pups of all kinds. Even ones with quirky behaviors like mine!”
“Ashley was the first person from Rover we’ve ever used and and she was amazing and put me at ease! I would definitely have her come hang out with my pup anytime! Thanks Ashley!”
“Emma was great with Luke! She took him on some of his favorite walks in the short time she got to watch him. She was punctual on her visits and remembered to lock our doors after she leaves 😉. With the normal app glitches, which affected us both, aside - it was a good experience and we would seek her out again.”
“Valarie did a great job walking our two dogs. When we had short notice that we needed coverage for our dogs while heading out of town, Valarie was quick to respond and set up a meet & greet. She agreed to take care of our girls and came as requested. She was communicative during each walk and sent great pictures. We hope she'll agree to more walks in the future!”
“Communicative, caring and pleasant. Allison helped me with my fur baby while my roommate was out of town, last minute might I add!!! She genuinely loves what she does, and spreads the love to her fur friends. Would definitely rebook her for the future!”
“Bobbi was amazing with Dewey and I felt confident of her character and integrity right from the start! She loved my little guy and helped me out with daily walks when my regular plan fell thru! Thank you, Bobbi! Dewey thanks you too! Robin”
“Constance is such a blessing for my dog and I. She is very reliable and always shows the same care and affection to Poppy as if she were her own. Can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I love dogs! I'm happy to reinforce any training as needed. I also love to take dogs on local adventures and walks in the surrounding areas. I'm currently a grad student and will be needing to make some extra money starting next month. I will be on a semi flexible schedule allowing for pet sitting and house sitting. I'm trustworthy and will follow through on any needs expressed. I appreciate clear and direct communication. If a specific request is unclear, I will ask.
About: My bootcamp program for my dogs is the perfect combination of love, fun, exercise and discipline. I have taken care of dogs my entire life! I specialize in smaller dogs, but I love all dogs equal. I plan to have only 1 or 2 dogs at a time. I work part time and have weekends off and I will have an assistant to help part of the day, while I'm away at work. So I will have lots of time with your fur baby. Your pets will be inside my home most of the time. If your dog is well behaved, I usually will take your pet with me.
“Chance is great, consistent, and our Woogs is very happy with the walks. Fully recommend him as very solid walker, especially for big dogs that like to pull and/or are high energy (ours is ~90 lbs). Our Woogs is looking forward to many more walks with Chance :)”
About: Experienced, loving dog walker with a lifelong passion for animals! Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long adventure, or just some extra attention during the day, I’m here to help. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I always tailor each walk to their needs. Reliable, friendly, and happy to provide updates and cuddles along the way! I am a stay at home mom that is home all day everyday. I have lots of time to care for and play with your pet! I have a large home with an entire room upstairs for litter box, play, and food & water. My downstairs also has a cat water fountain. There are toys throughout the house as well as two cat trees for them to use. I have a 2 year old bengal and two kids who absolutely love and adore cats. Your fur baby will be at home in my home!
“Katelyn is great with our fur child Quigley! She is dependable and has excellent communication! Quigley can be hesitant to go on walks and she has been patient and so helpful with him! 🐾 We love having her as a dog walker!”
“Amanda is the best! We love her and more importantly, Mack (our dog) loves her! She is great with communication, always goes above and beyond, and we are so thankful for her! Thanks for everything Amanda!”

Nicole and her son have been absolutely wonderful. I cannot speak highly enough of them. I have a very anxious dog, and Nicole has been so patient, persistent, loving, and kind throughout the entire process. She is always prompt, sends pictures, keeps me updated, and even works with my other puppy on behavior. I highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, honest, trustworthy, and exceptional pet care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Fernwood on Rover is $21 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 11,575 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fernwood. 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 Fernwood. 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 Fernwood.
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 Fernwood. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
