“Lauren was very thoughtful about the heat when walking my pup. She was so detailed when leaving a message. It made my day reading them knowing my pup is safe. She sent me pictures and my pup looked so happy to see her every time. Thank you so much 11/10”
“Lacee is much more than a dog walker, she actually cares and observes Meeko’s behavior and reports her concerns. Meeko looks forward to their walks and is always super-excited to see her, I look forward to him getting rid of his energy so I can get work done, and we BOTH highly recommend Lacee!”
“Taylor was amazing with my fur babies ! She made sure my babies were walked, fed, and had their water. She stayed and cuddled with them and most importantly my babies trusted her. I definitely recommend Taylor 1000% !! I will definitely hire her again and will recommend her to all my friends and family. Don’t hesitate to hire Taylor you won’t be disappointed at all !”
About: Student with 6 years of pet care experience and two cats, including a 16-year-old senior cat. Comfortable administering medications and providing loving, reliable, attentive care for every pet. 🐾 I am working part time now, with a lot of availability in the morning and evenings along with the weekends. I do help out some other with yard maintenance I have a fully fenced backyard, for my cats but does it really keep them in? Nope, it doesn’t. I also give my long haired cat a bath every 2 weeks.
“Amy is very thorough and thoughtful. She took copious notes on my senior dog and changed her diaper and wiped her paws awesomely per my request. When faced with language barriers, Amy is still communicative, kind and respectful— my mom liked her too!”
About: I’ve taken care of fur babies since I was a little girl. Neighbors & friends have always relied on me for a last minute dog sitter/walker. No matter the breed or size I adapt quickly! I update my schedule weekly through the app. If you have any questions or requests, shoot me a message. I would absolutely love to connect and figure out a plan for you & your fur baby! I will make sure your babies are as comfortable as possible at all times. As well as, follow their daily routine. Whether that includes walks, baths, play time, and breakfast/lunch/dinner. I am open to any special request you might have while I am watching them.
“Barbara has a very Calm disposition and is very good with Mowgli. He enjoyed his walk with her and seems calm when around her. She is very prompt and respectful. And communicates well. We will be definitely asking her to take our Mowgli for a walk again. Thanks Barbara!!”
About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting for years and truly love spending time with animals. Whether it’s going on walks, pet sitting, or giving them tons of love. I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with a variety of dogs and cats, and I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I’m not just there to check a box, I’m there to give them care, attention, and lots of love. 🐾 Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I am available Monday through Friday from 7am to 3pm. I can accommodate morning walks, check-ins, feedings, and daytime care. I enjoy starting my day with pets and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets in both my home and my client’s home. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special needs. I make sure pets are always in a secure and clean environment, and I pay close attention to their behavior to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every home with respect and every pet like my own, providing a calm, loving, and reliable presence.
About: I've grown up with dogs since I was five years old. When I was a teenager, I would foster kittens till they were old enough for new homes. I would also volunteer in high school at an emergency vet clinic. I've also cat sat for my neighbors for a generous number of times. I still have my first dog from when I was five so hopefully that's a good sign :) I'm available throughout the week depending on my schedule from my primary job. Most of the time I'll for sure be able to pet sit after 3pm. On weekends I'm fully available. I will take your dog(s) on various walks throughout the day if needed. If you have a cat(s) I will routinely clean the litter box and play with them if they like with a toy. For any animal I will water is out for the thirsty pets. And I will feed based on your request.
“Can't recommend Bill enough. He's been the best care taker for my dog when I'm not around and I feel at ease knowing he's in good hands with Bill. Always love reading the personalized notes after each walk. Thanks for your help always!”
“Michael was excellent with communication and was kind to come few days earlier to acclimatize with our dog. He was prompt and punctual. Very patient with our dog. He was flexible with changes to schedule and was very accommodating. Would definitely avail his services if a need arises in the future. Our dog will miss him and the daily walks. Great find for us.”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs, big or small consistently for the past couple years. I love to be active with dogs and would have no problem walking them and taking them out for long periods of time, as well as a calm day in. I’m currently just a part time student and aside from other small hobbies I am always available for any work needed! I am also always available for overnight stays too. Back at home I was always surrounded by dogs and I am used to all different types. With your dog I’ll always take them out for a walk, constantly doing different activities and that’ll come with plenty of photo updates aswell!
“Zackary was fantastic to work with. We had initially been a little worried that we wouldn't be able to find someone to walk 2 large dogs at once. Zachary showed up and was able to put our worries to rest. We had a test-run where he showed up and put on their harnesses and took them around the neighborhood for a test run. He was so kind and willing to work with our special instructions (just come around the back, harnesses will be set here, knock on the back door to get the dogs to come out, etc) For the week we were gone on vacation, he had showed up on time , took them for long daily walks, sent updates and did everything to make sure we felt comfortable and that our dogs were happy, healthy and well exercised. Highly recommended if you're looking for a super-nice dog walker who is super-competent, punctual and great to work with. Thank you Zackary!! :)”
About: I absolutely love animals! I grew up with both cats/dogs and now have my own cat/dog who I've had since they were babies. They're now both nearly 10 years old so safe to say I'm extremely pet oriented. I am very good at caring for animals and keeping them on a routine schedule. My exhusband was a veterinarian where I assisted his practice for years prior to divorce, so I am great at administering medications, clipping nails, and bathing. I have pet sit before with another website and am branching out since my schedule opened up a bit! I work from home so I have plenty of time to pet sit. I wake up early mornings so I’d be able to take pets for walks both mornings and evenings so long as the weather/daylight holds up. I am constantly home so I am able to watch the pets and give them some playtime/cuddles while working remotely. Pets never feel lonely within my care.
About: I have trained my doodle, after she came from a family with having no prior training. While also growing up with my 10 year old golden retrier. I am a college student and I have class everyday besies the weekend and thursday, I have classes in the morning but after 12 I am free. I have trained my 3 year old golden doodle named ruby and grew up with my 10 year old golden retriever named cooper who sheds a lot.
“Erin was fantastic with my boys! They typically aren't terribly picky when it comes to people, but just from the photos alone I could tell they genuinely enjoyed her visits. She went above and beyond more times than I can count and was a fantastic communicator the entire duration of our booking. We will definitely request her in the future! Thanks for showing Ares and Fin such love, Erin!”
About: I myself had a dog, Duchess and cat, Turtle growing up and I currently have 5 cats at home that I adopted from the street. I have been watching dogs since I started college, spending time with both elderly dogs and puppies in the long term. My first long term job necessitated spending extended amounts of time with an elderly pair of dogs with multiple medications to manage, followed by puppies that required crate work and upkeep of their good behavior training, which I continued as instructed. I do not currently work a part time job as I am a full time college student double majoring in Anthropology and History. As a result me and my work are portable and not uninterruptable, so I can devote a lot of time to playing, walking, cuddling and taking care of pets. I do not have many in person commitments outside of classes, and keep myself busy with computer work, which is portable. I cannot care for pets in my home on account of my cats, but in others homes I will feed as instructed (maybe an extra treat or two if they are good) and make sure they aren't sick. I walk and play depending on requirement, and am comfortable with the dogs or cats sleeping with me or otherwise. Typically I will also take the garbage out, clean litter boxes if necessary, water houseplants, and keep the house as clean as I can, and do laundry if the towels need washing. I'll also pull in mail and packages and leave them safe inside. I can also continue behavior training if instructed.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Folsom is $23

Mira is awesome! My dog was so excited for his walk with her, and came home and slept the rest of the day. She was on time, professional, and followed all instructions I had mentioned previously. It is obvious that she loves animals, and has a lot of experience with them. My dog loves her!
Melody is awesome! She’s so kind and patient with my senior dog. She’s also super helpful and friendly with my elderly mom. I went on a trip and am lucky Melody was there to change my dog’s diapers, walk her several times a day, and assist my mom with feeding my dog. Melody really cares about animals and won’t hesitate to help you care for your pet while you’re away. She even did a meet and greet with me and my dog beforehand. Truly adore Melody and looking forward to using her services again!
Brianna was great with our 6 month old Labrador Retriever. Our pup connected with her quickly which gave us peace of mind that he will be well taken care of during the walk and playtime and indeed he was. We will definitely be repeat customers if Brianna continues to provide this service!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Folsom on Rover is $21.09 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 3,968 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Folsom. 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 Folsom. 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 Folsom.

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 Folsom. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
