“Jonathan was great with our recently adopted dog that gave him a hard time. He was calm, patient and adapted to the situation as needed, communicating well along the way.”
“Wonderful experience! She provided great updates throughout the visit, sent plenty of photos, and took excellent care of my dog. Communication was easy, and it was reassuring to know he was in such good hands. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to others.”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs and cats of different sizes and personalities. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, basic routines, and plenty of attention while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. :::writing{variant=“social_post” id=“64127”} I have a flexible schedule Monday through Wednesday and am available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. Thursday through Sunday, I work from 4–11 PM, but I’m available for morning and afternoon care before work and overnight care after I get home. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal routine to make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owner is away. I always try to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other specific needs. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also keeping the home clean and secure. I’m respectful of each pet’s personality and will provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life, and started taking care of my own very young. I have a kitty who is 5 years old now and he is my baby.! I’ve been in horse care for about 7 years, as well as watching and caring for other barn animals. Have had dogs in the family and dog/cat sat for friends my whole life as well! Currently have full availability, am open for walks anytime for what fits your routine, and sitting when they need some extra care. I can work with you and your schedule for weekdays for my availability. I know how important it is to see that your pet family has attention when you may have a busy life! I am with my cat a lot, and keep him on a good feeding routine and have outside time everyday. He is mainly indoor, so I have understanding of protecting your animals in the home as well as needing playtime, exercise, and fresh air. Every human and pet friend alike are different! I would love to know any/all of yours and your pets needs to support my best care and attention
“Larquana was awesome with our high energy dog Milo. She was timely, sent me updates and photos of Milo looking extremely happy during their time together, and ensured to put all of Milo’s items back in their place which was very helpful and sweet. We will definitely be calling Larquana again.”
About: I have 5 pets that I have taken care of my whole life, and I have taken care of a variety of cats and dogs for neighbors, friends, and family. Feeding, walking, playing, medicine, and bathing, I have done it all, and I love to do it! I just recently graduated college and moved back home for a gap year, so I have plenty of time to help out whenever needed! I love to be active, so walking and playing with your pet is a perfect fit! I have plenty of parks and green space around my area with places for dogs to run around safely with fountains for them to get water during hot days. If we will be out for longer periods of time I will bring a portable water bottle/bowl for dogs to stay healthy and hydrated as well. Caring for pets truly depends on each animals needs, so I am careful to tailor my service to exactly what they need. If they have more energy, then we can throw the ball around or play with their favorite toy! Or if they feel a bit more tired I can give them extra cuddles and love while they rest.
“Rosemery has been great for our walking needs. She is always flexible with scheduling and very attentive. Our dog is always excited for their walks. I will have Rosemery as my go-to for caring for my pup!”
“Melika is very communicative and does a fantastic job. I’m very pleased with the work she does and the loving way she cares for Loki. I hope I get to use her services frequently.”
“Amelia is the best!!! She’s been so very patient with our dog, Leah, who has major anxiety issues. She’s always prompt and timely in her communication. Leah just adores her and that makes us very happy.”
“I moved to dc a month ago and Edgar has been a great help for me & my puppy! My puppy clicked with him during our initial meeting and he definitely enjoys his midday walks with Edgar & his dog pal :) Edgar sends pictures, communicates any concerns and has done a great job! I look forward to working with him in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Forest Glen
Ajamu has been wonderful with my two pups, Poli and Bruno! 🐾 I feel completely comfortable having him come work with and walk them. He is incredibly patient, calm, and thoughtful in the way he teache and not just the dogs, but us as owners too! It really means a lot to have someone I trust who genuinely takes the time to understand and work with them. We’re so grateful to have found him!
My pup Brandice is sometimes a little hesitant around new people but during the meet and greet with Kayla she ran right up to her for pets. Kayla's experience with reactive dogs put me at ease knowing she would be able to handle some of Brandice's quirks. I appreciated the updates and photos that were sent after each walk. I would totally recommend her to anyone in the area for drop-in's and walks and will definitely book again in the future!
Toni is always on time for walking, even played with our dogs. Pets were completely relaxed in her care, and we received daily photo updates, which is reassuming. Toni is excellent, she treats ours like her own. We’ll definitely be booking again for our next trip.
Naomi did a fantastic job taking great care of our three rambunctious dogs while we were away on vacation. Walking them twice daily, sending photos on daily walks, and checking in. It was a relief to see them so happy and well cared for while we were away. Naomi was very kind and gentle with our dogs even though they have a tendency to pull and she kept us updated thru text messages. Since we arrived back home our dogs have been sitting in the window looking for Naomi most especially around the normal times she would arrive. I would not hesitate to have Naomi care for our pups again. Very consistent and reliable, Thank you Naomi for your great care and kindness!
We went on vacation for a week and were so happy to find Jonathan. He was very responsive and made sure our dog was well taken care of. He sent us photos and videos of her walks and the time he spent with her. This helped to assure us that she wasn’t lonely while we were gone. He was also extremely flexible and we were able to add on services at the last minute. Thanks so much! We would definitely book with Jonathan in the future.
Katherine was super communicative and took great pictures of our Dog Bella on her daily walks and left wonderfully detailed reports. It really put my mind at ease to get her walk alert and updates every day. She also met with us first for a meet and greet and asked a lot of wonderful questions, some I didn’t even think about.
Concetta is wonderful! She loves animals, and bonds easily with them, and she’s extremely professional and dedicated. All of our dogs are delighted to see her for a walk, and we know that they’ll be well cared for and nurtured when she takes care of them when we’re out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Forest Glen on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of September 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 .

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 Forest Glen. 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 Forest Glen.

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 Forest Glen. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
