About: I have worked with dog trainers so I know some training skills needed to help with certain behaviors. I can administer meds if needed. I have had farm animals so I have that experience as well. I am looking to fill my time with some amazing animals because of my love for them. I take care of everything from farm animals to cats. I can watch cat friendly dogs in my home. I have gates and a safe environment. I am more than willing to watch pets in the clients home as well to make them feel comfortable and help with routine.

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, and always treat them like family. I genuinely care for my neighborhood’s dogs and have provided overnight care, daily walks, and more. I always take the time to get to know owners first to build trust and understand their dog’s specific needs. With experience in basic training, giving medication, and reading animal behavior, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality. I’m reliable, patient, and excited to continue gaining experience, always happy to share updates so you feel confident your furry friend is in good hands. My schedule is super flexible, making it easy to fit long walks and drop-in visits right into my daily routine! I love ensuring your pets get plenty of exercise and attention during the week, with extra availability on weekends. As a fun bonus, I absolutely love taking pictures of my pet clients—I'm told I take great photos, so you can expect plenty of adorable updates! Because my routine is so adaptable, I have great availability to give your furry friends the best care whenever you need a hand! I care for pets at their home by creating a safe and comfortable environment. For dogs, I ensure they get regular walks, playtime, and attention. I make sure they’re fed according to their schedule and provide any necessary companionship while their owners are away. I also maintain a clean space, like washing bowls and keeping litter boxes tidy for cats. My goal is to keep pets feeling secure and loved in their own home, ensuring their routine stays consistent while you’re gone.

About: I bring a naturally calm, grounded presence into every home I enter. Pets are incredibly intuitive, and I prioritize creating a peaceful, steady environment where they feel safe and secure. Whether your dog is anxious, high-energy, or just needs consistency, I focus on maintaining a structured routine with patience and gentle guidance. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and comfortable, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in stable, attentive hands. I’m currently in school and have a lot of time in between classes! I have tons of times to take care of your best friends! When pets stay in my home, their comfort and safety are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment with consistent routines to help them settle in smoothly. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and supervised play, and I always monitor pets while outside. If your dog is crate-trained or prefers a crate for rest, I can easily accommodate that to maintain their normal routine. My goal is to create a peaceful, secure space where your pet feels at ease while you’re away.

About: Ive been taking care of my own pets as long as Ive been able, and began pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for others in high school during 2022. I have experience with cats and dogs of varying ages (puppies/kittens-elderly pets) and needs (illnesses and disabilities), as well as more exotic pets like lizards, birds, rodents, and aquatic animals like fish, turtles, and axolotls. I’ve administered medications for dogs, but do not have experience with needles. I’ve spent up to a week taking care of several animals at a time, as well as short periods like nights and checking in daily. I will do all I can to provide your pet and home with the care they need! I’m currently in college, but primarily online, so my school schedule is flexible with your needs! I am not working outside of pet care so I am not tied down to other responsibilities and provide the time needed to care for your pets. I’ve lived with pets my whole life, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable paying attention to a pet’s behavior and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and secure. I’ll also treat your home with respect, double-check doors and gates, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away.

“Lesley is amazing! We contacted her on short notice when my fiance was suddenly returning back to work. We loved that she had the experience to provide training walks for our little guy who is still learning his leash manners. She was flexible with our schedules, and keeps in contact with updates/videos throughout. She has provided us great advice on how to be better dog parents while on our walks. In just a few visits our baby is already behaving so much better on his walks! Do yourself a favor and hire Lesley!”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover originally from Brazil, where my love for animals started at a young age. I've always had dogs in my life, and caring for them has always been something very special to me. I'm a proud dog mom to Kacey, my sweet and energetic 6-year-old black Labrador. She's very friendly with other dogs and absolutely loves playing, exploring, going on walks, and joining me on little adventures. Although I'm new to Rover, I'm not new to loving and caring for dogs! I'm excited to open my home and share that love with other families. Whether it's walks, playtime, boarding, or outdoor adventures, my goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, happy, and loved. I also love taking pictures and videos, so I'd be more than happy to send you updates throughout your dog's stay or visit. I know how important it is to feel at ease when someone else is caring for your furry family member! One of my biggest dreams is to someday have a farm where I can rescue dogs and other animals and give them the happy, loving life they deserve. I can't wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I enjoy spending my time with dogs and love making them part of my daily routine. My schedule allows me to dedicate time to walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and making sure each dog gets the attention they deserve. I enjoy being outdoors, exploring new places, and going on adventures with Kacey. I'm happy to make time for your dog's individual needs and routine, and I will always do my best to provide attentive and loving care. My goal is to make sure your dog never feels overlooked and always has plenty of attention, affection, and fun! Your dog's safety and happiness are always my priorities. I want every pet parent to feel comfortable and confident knowing their furry family member is being cared for with love and attention. At home, Kacey is part of our family. She's a sweet, friendly, and playful 6-year-old Labrador who enjoys having company. Because Kacey lives in our home, dogs coming for boarding must be comfortable and friendly around other dogs. I believe every dog deserves patience, affection, and care according to their own personality and needs. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any special preferences. I also love keeping pet parents updated with pictures and videos, so you can see how your dog is doing, having fun, and settling in. Communication is important to me, and I want you to feel at ease while your best friend is with us!

Warwick, RI, 02886

About: What really sets me apart is my extensive expertise at both ends of the pet spectrum. I expertly train and socialize energetic young puppies – housebreaking, basic commands, leash manners, and building confidence without stress. For senior pets I deliver compassionate, specialized care that keeps them comfortable and thriving, with gentle routines for arthritis, medication reminders (oral or as prescribed), soft exercise, and calm, loving environments that reduce anxiety for our golden oldies. I treat every animal exactly like my own – tailoring walks, play, meals, and snuggles to their unique needs. You’ll receive daily photo/video updates and detailed reports so you never worry. Pet parents in Warwick and Providence consistently tell me my patience, reliability, and extra touches (like extra play sessions or favorite toys) make all the difference. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, dog walk, or longer sit, your furry family gets personalized, experienced care from a true partner who loves what they do. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me the perfect flexibility to fit pet care seamlessly into my daily routine. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups, take extra walks, provide enrichment, and give each pet the one-on-one attention they deserve without ever feeling rushed. I’m fully available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm, plus drop-ins or walks during those hours so your pets stay happy and on schedule every single day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a stress-free environment whether caring in my home or yours. For boarding in my home I provide a safe, secure space with supervised play and rest areas. I can crate if needed, supervise free time in secure spaces, and follow your exact feeding/walking routines. For walks or drop-ins in your home, I use your supplies, stick strictly to your schedule, keep everything clean and locked, and treat your space with total respect. I’m background-checked, Rover-insured, and always send real-time photo/video updates so you never worry.

About: I bring a deep love for both dogs and cats, paired with attentive care rooted in experience and heart. I'm especially skilled in supporting senior pets, understanding their routines and mobility needs, and I’ve worked with puppies and kittens to reinforce training basics through patient, positive guidance. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime or slow, reassuring companionship, I adjust my approach to match their personality and needs. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment. I'm currently available most times as I left my corporate job and I am focusing on animal care as well as started a packing and organization company. In-Home Care with a Thoughtful Touch I care for pets in your home with respect for their routines, comfort, and safety. Whether it's keeping their feeding schedule spot-on, reinforcing training basics, or offering senior pets a peaceful pace, I adapt my approach to fit their unique needs. I make sure your space stays tidy and stress-free—so you return to a happy pet and a calm home.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Foster

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Foster is $11 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $17 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,817 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Foster. 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 Foster. 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 Foster 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 Foster. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 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.
