About: I grew up surrounded by animals like dogs, cats, and birds. I have been pet sitting dogs and cats for about 8 years. I’ve also worked at animals shelters and volunteered at adoption events throughout the years. I am very excited to meet your furry friend! I recently got furloughed due to federal funding cuts so please let me know if you need my services while I navigate this uncertain period. I would really appreciate it :) My schedule is super flexible!! Mornings, afternoons, evenings work for me. I am free at all times over the weekend as well. I am able to work with your schedule just let me know I will take care of your furry baby as if they are my own! I will always send you pictures and videos of your pet while you are away. Trust is the most important thing to me. You can count on me :)
“Our Ollie absolutely loves Daniel! From the moment he walked in for the meet and greet they hit it off great! Daniel is very punctual, dependable and communicative. I absolutely trust him with my leash temperamental dog and looking forward to more lunch time adventures for them.”
“This was my dog’s first walk with Youlee. My dog was nervous at first but when she came home she was so happy! Youlee was on time and sent lots of photos and videos. I’ll definitely hire her again.”
“If my pug Mimi could leave a review herself for Haoran (Selina), it would probably go something like this: “I had such a lovely walk! Since I’m older now, I really appreciate someone patient, gentle, and happy to go at my pace. She took wonderful care of me and sent my mama adorable photos. I came home with extra treats and lots of tail wags. Her calm, sweet demeanor made me feel comfortable. My mama says she’s thoughtful, communicative, and clearly cares about every dog she meets. Can’t wait for my next adventure with her!””
“Anne was great dealing with our dog who gets anxious around new people. With a bit of patience and treats, Anne calmed Archie’s nerves without us around and was able to take him for a walk. Very appreciative of Anne taking the time to work with our dog!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and I have learned from experience what a dog’s boundaries, needs, and strengths can be! Not to mention, I absolutely love furry friends to hang out and simply enjoy the company with! I can provide an stress-free environment that’s tailored to your pups routine and needs. And, of course, expect daily photo updates of our adventures! I am a full time student, so I specialize in prioritizing my time when I am home to take care of your furry friends. I am not currently taking weekly care clients as I am only available during the summer, schools breaks, and long holidays. I have a fenced front, a back yard, a lovely, patient dog, plenty of space, and a dog bed for your pup to sleep comfortably in in case of sleepovers. I love walking, especially with some company, and I love to prioritize a dogs needs and offer them whatever level of love they need to feel comforted!
About: Having grown up with dogs of all ages, from high energy puppies to senior dogs requiring patient care, dog behavior and body language are second nature to me. I know cues to keep them safe on the leash, and the provide structured, attentive care they get at home. When your dog is with me, you’re getting someone who truly cares and understand them, not just someone tracking steps I currently work from home and am a very active person. I am available most days of the week during the day and some evenings. My schedule is flexible so I can easily accommodate your needs! I live in a pet free home and tailor to making sure your dog feels comfortable in any environment whether it’s my home or yours!
“Cymia has been amazing so far. She has walked my 4 months puppy twice so far, and has carefully followed all my instructions (I’m strict as I am training him). I plan to keep her as my dog walker, and highly recommend her. Great personality as well!”
“I was impressed with Daniel right from the start! He is a very humble, respectful, responsible, kind young man who loves animals. My dog Sophie immediately took to him and she would have great walks with him. I asked a lot from Daniel when I went on holiday…and he delivered! He came to my home for 10 days to not only walk my dog but also feed her…give her medicine, and as a bonus, he played with her. Socializing w Sophie went a long way because she was alone most of the time. He would always be on time and, when another dog walker canceled, he quickly covered that shift. No questions or higher charge. He sent a lot of photos too. Since I’ve been back from my holiday, I’ve been in poor health. I texted Daniel and he is now my dog walker on days when I’m unable to take Sophie out myself. Again, punctual & always thinking about what’s best for my dog…. For example, He remembers to dry Sophie’s paws when they arrive from a walk in the snow or rain. I highly recommend Daniel as your dog walker or sitter.”
“Responds quickly and easy to communicate with. Really appreciate Autumn being available at the last minute for an afternoon walk when my schedule changed.”
“Amanda is incredibly responsible, thoughtful, and such a dog person. Rosie was in love with her at first sight. Lucky to have her as part of my "dog team."”

I can work with training or to just give an opportunity for exercise. I am up for anything! Dogs have become a passion of mine, and I am here to help you take care of your furry friend. They are precious companions and deserve a life where they are loved and paid attention to. That's what I am here for! I can help both your furry friend and help you by providing services and to love on your pet. It can be worry-some to hand your companion over to another so I am here to alleviate that stress.

There are plenty of trails around the Arlington area that are pet friendly. I am happy to play with your pet and give them lots of love!
About: I’ve been a dog sitter for friends and family for over 7 years. I love dog walking and giving dogs the opportunity to sniff and play during their time outside. I also am a cat mom and cat whisperer. My family has 5 cats and I have 1 so I am very well versed in understanding cat body language and boundaries. I work remotely and have a lot of down time between my meetings. My work schedule is pretty flexible and I am able to take some time off during the day if need be for pet care. I live in an apartment, with many parks around me for dog walks. I have a balcony in my apartment and am vigilant to never let animals out there for safety purposes.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Myer
Savonna has been incredibly attentive, patient, and caring with my UBER attention-seeking pups! From the very beginning, Rocco and Bella responded so well to her, and she quickly put them at ease while I was away. She kept me informed of every walk, communicated any concerns promptly, and was flexible whenever schedule adjustments were needed. Her professionalism, reliability, and genuine care gave me complete peace of mind knowing my babies were in great hands. I would absolutely book with Savonna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet caregiver. We are so grateful for her outstanding care and professionalism. With heartfelt thanks from RnB (Rocco & Bella) and HuMom Dana! 🐾
Julia is amazing! She walked my one-year-old miniature Dachshund, Jub Jub, for four consecutive days this past week, and I couldn't have been happier with the care she provided. She took him on long, enjoyable walks through our neighborhood and the nearby park, and she kept me updated throughout each visit with detailed notes and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Beyond the walks, Julia took the time to check on him when she arrived, making sure he was comfortable and that everything in the house was clean and in order. We also have two other dogs at home, and even though they weren't part of the booking, Julia was incredibly kind and spent time playing with and giving them attention as well. That extra level of care really meant a lot. Julia was professional, punctual, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker. Thank you so much, Julia!
Kelly is a great walker and companion to our dog Ducky! We had originally hired Kelly for 3 days a week - Ducky gets so excited when Kelly arrives, and he comes home happy and tired (in a good way) after each walk! Kelly is also very informative, adding details on each walk and letting us know of anything else after returning
Kayla has been incredible at taking care of my dog Beamer! She is very thoughtful with his care. She’s let me know if there’s any issues on his walk and is helping me keep an eye on a hot spot on his tail he’s been irritating. Really appreciate Kayla going above and beyond taking care of Beamer, whether walking him or boarding him, she takes care of him as if he’s her own pet. Big thank you, will definitely be re-booking Kayla!
Selina is absolutely amazing with my dog! She is incredibly talented, patient, and skilled, and it’s obvious that she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. She is very professional, communicative, and dependable. My dog loves spending time with her, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing he is in such good hands. I highly recommend Selina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and exceptional to care for their dog!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Fort Myer on Rover is $22.2 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 Fort Myer. 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 Fort Myer.

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 Myer. 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.
