“Justin has been walking our GSD for quite some time now. We would recommend him to anyone! He has been so good to ghost and has really helped him come out of his shell. Ghost has always looked forward to their walks and even gets annoyed with us when he realizes his walk with justin isn’t happening that day when we have had to reschedule lol. Ghost will definitely miss him when we move & we can’t thank him enough for treating him with such care and understanding as ghost was growing up. Thank you for working with our sour patch boy!”

About: Hi I’ve owned black labs and my senior German Shepard recently passed. There are no dogs in my house. If you let me watch your dog he/she would get a lot of play time, exercise and treats if allowed. I also take care of my son’s Irish wolfhound when he goes on vacation. I’m currently working part time. My 13 year old German Shepard recently passed so I thought I would be able to assist other dog owners. I have a nice, clean home for your pet along with fenced in yard. I would be available whenever needed. I am an attentive pet parents. I have a fenced yard, spare rooms if needed for quiet time. You would have no worries if i cared for your pet.

About: I think what might set me apart from other sitters is that I’ve taken care of señor issues like weak bladder and standing issues. I’ve also have trained the basic with puppies. I have worked at a pet store and have helped take care of dog and many different types of animals! I also was a nutritional specialist at my previous job and respect exactly what you want your dog to eat and snack on. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I make time for it including taking care of my own puppy! I also enjoy being outside and take time out of the day to go on walks with puppies or occasionally cats! The way I care for pets in my clients home will be following everything that my clients and I talk about for the care of their fur baby! I love showing as much attention and care to dogs and other animals as I possibly can!

About: I have worked professionally in multiple pet daycares and as an apprentice dog trainer. I have experience with aggressive animals, giant breeds and am confident in my ability to keep all animals and humans safe at all times. I have experience administering medications, working with special needs animals, and providing mental enrichment as well as physical exercise. I currently own a Great Dane and terrier mix, and many other reptiles, and am very used to all the quirks that dogs and cats can have. I also have experience with some farm animals as well, and am pretty comfortable with all animals. I would love to be a stand in fur mama for your pets while you are away, and will send updates as desired so you can have peace of mind. I also am open to bathing dogs or cats for an additional rate. Would require your bathtub or a pre purchased self grooming station at a pet store or dog grooming facility. I can provide bathing supplies if needed. I currently work close to full time but am interested in decreasing my hours and doing more pet sitting if possible. I am currently available weekdays after 4pm, Tuesdays/Saturdays all day and Sunday after 4/5pm. I can offer care in your home and offer dog walking, play time, and mental enrichment such as lick mats, dog puzzles, etc (I can provide the enrichment while I am at your home) I treat every animal as if they are my own and am very vigilant to ensure the safety of all animals at all times. I always ask for temperament information for all animals so I do not cross any animals boundaries and know best how to interact with them.

About: Hello! I’m so glad you are here! My name is Sharee. I am 23 and I just moved here to the Watertown area from Sarasota, FL; which is where I’m from. I became a pet sitter because I adore dogs and cannot have one of my own right now-- so I'm here to give lots of love and attention to yours! I've always been an animal lover and dogs have always been apart of our family throughout my childhood. Giving them the care they need and deserve is my priority and I will treat your dog like my own. I will take them on long walks (when needed), occasional park trips (if comfortable with) and make sure they receive the food, exercise and all the love they need. I've had many experiences with animals, including: 2 Great Danes, a Bichon Poo, a British short haired' cat, and I have helped raise and train two well behaved pure bread German Shepherds. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy doing and I guarantee yours will obtain nothing but the absolute best. I just joined the military and definitely need a reason to get off base and also make new fury friends here! Rover is a way for me to make additional income while doing something that brings me joy. My schedule is Monday- Friday but I’m expecting to have a lot of 4-day weekends. Your pets are your family and I understand what it's like to be away from them, even if you're off doing something fun. My main goal is to build a relationship with you and your pet which will allow us all to feel secure and connected. I will do my best to be attentive and communicative through pictures, phone calls etc. I look forward to meeting/ caring for your pets and making this a memorable experience for all of us! (I am available for Dog Walking, Drop-In Visits and House Sitting only) I am currently working full time Monday- Friday but am available around lunch time every weekday, after work during the week, and my weekends are completely free. I am available to walk your dog every day in the early morning, lunch time, and after work around 5pm. Additionally, I can also accommodate high energy breeds that need more than a potty walk.

About: I care for all animals as they are my own. Meeting their basic needs is just the bare minimum of care I provide. Anytime I care for someone's pet, I spend extra hours hanging out with them giving them love and attention so that they don't feel lonely. I love all types of animals! I also like to stay active so taking care of your special baby helps me stay active, with the perk of getting animal lovings. I've only ever cared for pets in their home. This way your baby will be more comfortable in its known environment. I will gladly bring in any mail/packages you receive.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Fort Drum

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 109 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fort Drum. 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 Fort Drum. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Fort Drum after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Fort Drum. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
