“This was my first time using a pet service for dog walks and I’m overjoyed with my experience. Paola was so kind, professional, and has such a way with animals! She is so nurturing and my timid dog went straight up to her- a sign that her energy is calming and sweet. Paola walked my dog and even sent me pictures from the walk! I’ll be booking with her again in the future! I felt safe trusting her with Birdie!”
About: When my family adopted our first dog, Jennie, a German Shepard mix, I had made it a priority to walk her almost everyday and play with her so she was never bored. I also helped train her when she was a puppy, teaching her how to sit and how to give her paw. I also took care of her when she became older, helping her down stairs and cooking her healthy treats like salmon and chicken. My family has since had two different foster dogs (American bully and Pitbull) that I love to spend time and go on walks with. I’m currently home from college for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands and would love to spend it with your pets! I will always keep a vigilant eye on your pet and do my best to make them as happy as possible. I spend a lot of time outside in my fenced yard with my dog, so I will be sure to give your dog the same amount of attention.
About: I have had pets from a young age, including dogs, cats, fish and hamsters. I am currently the owner of two beautiful mixes named Luna and Lys! In addition to my own pets I have cared for friend’s and family’s dogs and cats numerous times. I know how special animals can be and look forward to caring for your special family members! Profile picture is myself and my girl Luna! I am an elementary special education teacher who is looking to make a little extra money on my summer break. I am typically available at most times in the morning and evening Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Though I do tutor some mornings from 10-11AM. Wednesdays I am available before 2 PM and after 3:30 PM. I am unavailable July 13-August 2 due to a trip. I can provide whatever length of walks is typical for your pet and can accommodate additional routines that are typical in your household. I am unable to bring pets into my home due to my own dogs.
“Alicia is a diligent and professional Pet Caregiver. She walked my dog every morning while I was traveling out of the country for 20 days. She was always punctual and kept me informed each day about how much she and Toffee had walked along with pictures! She sent me constant reminders on other matters related to my pet! I highly recommend her services!”
About: I’ve owned two dogs of my own (1 currently - Ellie!) and I regularly dog sit two other dogs owned by a friend. I love dogs and understand their behavior very well. As a dog owner myself, I understand the peace of mind that comes with leaving your dog with someone reliable and trustworthy. I have a full time job Monday through Friday but am generally available on weekends and occasional weeknights. I’m also more flexible on Fridays. I’m comfortable with caring for dogs of all sizes. I would love to help provide potty breaks and walks and playing! For boarding, I have a roughly 30x30ft fenced yard and one 40lb friendly dog of my own.
“I use Sharon regularly to walk my puppy who can be a bit crazy (as puppies are) and she is always sweet to her. I’m new to rover and I’m so glad I found someone I trust in my home and to care for my puppy Bingley who is my world!! Sharon follows my instructions to a tee and is reliable and cares about animals, would recommend.”
“Madison is great with both our dogs! Patches is selective with certain people but loves Madison and she knows how to control our reactive and high energy pitbull bully mix, Dundie!”
“Krista was so great with Frankie! It was our first time using Rover and we have used her 3 times already. Our pup has a lot of energy and loves going for her walks and she looks so happy in the pictures we get. Would highly recommend.”
About: Hi! I’m a part time nursing student at Neumann University living in Medford. I have two dogs of my own, a 70 pound Dalmatian and a 25 pound rescue mix, so I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I have over five years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I also helped at my Dalmatian’s training facility when he was a puppy, where I learned positive reinforcement techniques and gained experience working with dogs of all ages. I am comfortable giving oral medications, walking dogs that pull, and following your pet’s routine. I understand that pets are family, and I will care for yours with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I am currently a part time nursing student at Neumann University, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. Caring for my own two dogs is already part of my daily routine, so I am available for walks, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company while you are away. I will always do my best to work around your schedule and keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. Before each visit, I like to learn your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions so I can provide the best care possible. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including dogs that pull on walks, and I can give oral medications if needed. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away.
About: I have worked in various different ways with animals throughout the past 6 years. I have pet sat for family friends and used to work in a kennel where we board both cats and dogs. I have had pets all my life and know how much they mean to you so I will give them the best care! I have a part time job but it is very flexible! I am looking to do pet sitting full time so I have as much time for your pets as I can! I make sure the pets are comfortable and happy. Just write down what your pet needs and I will make sure to follow their schedule.
“I arranged for someone to walk my dog, but they had to cancel at the last minute due to a medical emergency after I had already left the house and been gone for a few hours. Andrea really went above the call of duty. She called a coworker to come in early and left work early to go and walk my dog. I really appreciated her responsiveness.”
“Amanda had been great with my Chloe. Chloe is a little shy and standoffish with new people due to her history and amanda has been great with her. The fact Chloe actually eats her dinner when Amanda comes over is a big deal! I will continue to use her.”
About: With 25 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, I understand that every pet is unique. I’ve long supported local rescue organizations through fostering, and by welcoming rescue animals into my own home. I look forward to treating your pet like family, and growing to love them as my own! I am a stay at home father of 2 young boys who have now gone off to daily school daily. I seek to use my availability to care for animals in need of attention and extra love. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life, so adding client pets fits seamlessly into my routine. I structure my day to provide dependable visits, regular walks, and quality one-on-one time to ensure each pet feels safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), and enrichment, while providing calm, attentive companionship. I respect each home as if it were my own and provide regular updates so owners have complete peace of mind.
“Patrick is such a caring and loving dog walker. We used him for a vacation and continue to have him come during the week because of how much our pup enjoys his walks & company. If you’re looking for a quality and loving walker- this is your guy! We love Patrick!”
“This was my first rover visit and although there were some scheduling issues (Marissa came twice instead of just once!), she was awesome. Marissa sent plenty of pictures, communicated well and made me feel at ease.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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 Fostertown. 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 Fostertown.

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 Fostertown. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
