About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

Rachel was absolutely amazing with my dog! I sent a request for one dog to be walked and she took care of my other one too and changed her pads in her crate!

About: It can be stressful leaving your dog behind, and we understand that first hand. We help alleviate any fears and treat your dog as a member of our family. We have two dogs of our own and know how important it is for us to know they are treated well whether we leave them with someone else or if someone stops in for care. We appreciate the trust our clients have in us and understand the immense responsibility whether your dogs are left with us or if we are granted access to your home. We have a house with large fenced in yard for play time with our little pack.For drop in visits, we make sure your dog feels comfortable in their own environment and gets the love and attention they may be missing during your absence. We love play time, but cuddle time is a favorite around here!

About: I bring lifelong experience in canine care, beginning in childhood and continuing through the present. I currently care for five dogs and have extensive hands-on experience managing multiple dogs at once, including the care of three litters and several additional dogs in the past. I am available seven days a week with flexible hours. At this time, I am seeking a position that offers flexibility rather than a full-time commitment, and I am eager to pursue work that aligns with my experience and interests. If needed, I am able to safely crate your dog or place them in a designated area. I am experienced in handling dogs that are uncomfortable walking on a leash and can manage them calmly and confidently. I also ensure that all basic needs are met before departure, including providing food and fresh water.

About: I genuinely love all dogs, and pugs hold a special place in my heart! I own two! Their unique personalities and affectionate nature make them such a joy to care for. That said, I enjoy spending time with dogs of every breed, age, and size from playful puppies to wise senior dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and ability to connect with animals on their level. I have experience with basic training for puppies, administering medications to senior dogs, and giving each pet the individualized care they deserve. Whether it’s cuddle time, walks, play, or helping with training, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am an animal lover. I’m currently working a part-time job with a very flexible schedule that I can decide, making me available to watch your pups any day of the week! Whether in your home or mine, your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow their routine closely, provide a calm and clean environment, and make sure they feel secure and loved. I’m attentive, trustworthy, and always happy to give updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have been responsible for pet sitting for friends and family. I currently have a 3yr old lab mix who I loved and raised from puppy hood and a 8 year old Siberian Husky. I am a lover of all animals and am ready to help with your fur baby when needed! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule so I can be available anytime, just need a few days notice. I am only available for walks and drop in’s as I have two dogs of my own and one is not very friendly. Prefer not to care for dogs in my own home due to having an anxious husky in my house but am more than willing to come to your place for visits!

About: Hello, My name is Sydney, and I’m excited to offer my services as a pet sitter through Rover. Animals have always been a big part of my life—I currently care for 18 pets, including dogs, cats, chinchillas, a bearded dragon, and chickens. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care routines, and the importance of providing individualized attention to each pet’s unique needs. I am comfortable administering oral medications and have experience caring for senior dogs, including those with mobility challenges or special health considerations. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, a gentle stroll, or some extra TLC, I’m committed to ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for in your absence. You can trust that I will treat your pet like one of my own—offering patience, affection, and reliability. I am also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and any special care requests to give you peace of mind. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your furry (or scaly or feathery) family members and ensure they are happy and comfortable while you’re away. Best regards, Sydney I work during the week Monday through Friday. On Mondays I typically work from home, so I’d be able to do drop ins on Mondays, and on Fridays I work in the office for a half day, so if you go on a weekend getaway I could start earlier on Friday afternoon. I also am off on weekends, so I have full availability then. I can also do evening check-ins any day of the week. When going into someone else’s home, I make sure to follow any rules that the family has in place for me. When caring for a pet in someone else’s home, I don’t mind spending extra time with their pet as I know sometimes animals can get lonely and miss their humans. I will be sure to make sure they are well fed, always have water, get lots of pets/snuggles, and I’ll be sure to send updates and photos. If there is anything wrong when checking on your pet, I will be sure to let you know immediately and will take your pet to a vet.

About: Our family has had pets for many years. We decided to offer our boarding and day care services as a "family" business, and to possible do this during retirement. We are active adults, and still have a teenager in the home that helps with this endeavor, as he is saving up for his first car. I am currently retired and work part time. Other members of the household also work flexible schedules, thus can meet the needs of most pets and pet owners. We are typically available most weekends and holidays. Our home is pet friendly. We have all vinyl flooring, and a large fenced in backyard. We also have the ability to take daily walks as our road is not heavily traveled. We live off the road, and our furry guests really enjoy looking out all the windows and doors at the squirrels, chickens and other wildlife. Our home is usually calm and mellow, so you your pet cannot handle a lot of barking/noise, they will probably love our home! We do not crate our furry friends, except out of the request of the owner. Although we have listed one pet at a time, we will take up to two from the same household.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs of all kinds and ages. Senior and puppy/kitten pet care are part of my experience. From long walks, to fun games, to specialty foods and injury recovery, I’ve seen and done it all. Your pets will be well loved and cared for by me. Currently, I have a wide open schedule as I prepare for my next job in the next few months. I can do multiple walks a day or stay overnight with pets. I can offer caring for your pets in your own home and will utilize your resources appropriately and safely. My own home, if truly needed, is in a lovely neighborhood for nice walks, with a fenced in backyard. Currently, there are no other pets in the house.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Franklinton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Franklinton on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of July 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 .

As of July 2026, there are 3,900 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Franklinton. 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 your Franklinton. 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 Franklinton.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Franklinton. On Rover:

  • 90% 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.
