“Nikki was awesome with our 2 high energy dogs! We appreciated the chance for a meet and greet, as well as her prompt communication and attention to detail. Thanks Nikki!”
“We had a last minute cancelation for a dog sitter at the house and Kaitlyn was able to fill in last minute! Our dogs are so anxious and getting them accustomed to knew people is always a challenge. Kaitlyn was so patient and kind they ended up warming right up to her. She sent us daily updates while we were gone with pictures which we loved receiving!!! We will definitely be using Kaitlyn again!”
“Olivia is a wonderful dog walker! She is attentive to details, always makes sure my dog has fresh water, give him treats, and takes great care of him. It’s clear how much she cares about the dogs she works with. Highly recommend!”
“Gabrielle is kind, reliable, communicative and clearly has a natural way with dogs. My dog felt comfortable with her right away, which says something because he can be wary of new people. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Gabrielle went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. At the end, my dog wanted to stay with her…the ultimate endorsement!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats and reptiles my whole life. I am a reliable, English teacher who loves long walks after school with my dog! In the summer, I have a lot of time available. Teaching has always been my passion and it definitely helps me become a patient caretaker to my dog and the lovable pets I watch! I currently have summers off due to my teaching schedule. During the school year I am available anytime after 4pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I can easily crate your pet if needed- we also have a fenced in yard that easily holds both of our medium sized dogs. 🐾
“Kathleen has a genuine love for dogs. She came over to meet my dog before the date she was to care for him. My dog bonded with her right. She sent me texts and photos throughout the day. She did a great job! I’ve booked her for a future date. I know my dog is in great hands with Kathleen!”
About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember from goldendoodles, corgis, and now a collie. We have also had cats for as long as I can remember as well. I’ve also done some pet sitting for family friends & neighbors for years. I’m slowly taking on dogs again for the moment. Your fur babies will be my number one priority. They will be well taken care of and given all the love and attention while you are away. I fully respect if your kitty is indoors only and take safety into account when I have to leave and go to work. I take no offense if your cat is shy and hides all the time THAT’S OKAY sometimes it just takes time.
“Jared has been wonderful with our two girls, Maya & Lola! He has persevered in winning over Lola’s trust which we truly appreciate as she is a Covid pup. He is nice, very communicative and follows our instructions every time. I highly recommend his services!”
“Emily was awesome! We were lucky that she was available for a dog walk while we were on vacation. She also was open to a meet and greet before which made us feel more at ease. Very communicative and went above and beyond. We would definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, especially dogs. My first pup was an Irish Setter when I was just four, and over the years my family rescued many dogs — including plenty of Basset Hounds — so I’m comfortable with all kinds of breeds and personalities. I’m now a cat owner as well — it’s a new experience, but one I’ve grown to love. At the moment, I’m available nearly every day, including weekends, thanks to a flexible work schedule. I’m happy to work around your needs and adjust as things come up. My kids are fully grown, so I have some more time on my hands! I’m completely comfortable crating dogs when needed, and I’m confident handling daily walks, potty breaks, and general exercise routines to make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and well‑cared for.
“Eva has been taking our dog on walks regularly for a few months now and she is absolutely the best. She comes on rainy days and brings towels, she has done some training with him, and is 100% reliable. And she also seems to love hanging with our dog, which is extra nice.”
“Marc was excellent! He clearly loves dogs, He has a good understanding of them and we appreciated his excellent communication and feedback! Will use him again without hesitation!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Forestdale on Rover is $26.64 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 .

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 Forestdale. 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 Forestdale.

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 Forestdale. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
