“Kristen walked our black lab every day for two weeks while we were on vacation and he absolutely loved her. It was such a relief to know he was well cared for. Kristen sent detailed updates about their walks, which were super helpful, and she was very patient and caring with our dog. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Lauren is such a great walker. She has been very prompt and takes a lot of pictures and gives great feedback. Our dog Gus has had a great time with Lauren and we hope to keep up with his daily walks with Lauren and potentially use her as a sitter for our dog and cat in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Frederick
Daphine did a great job with my 85 lb Goldendoodle. My dog is a "handful" but Daphine was skilled enough to gain his trust, encourage him into the leash and on a fun walk (in the rain!). My dog was super happy afterward and seemed to really enjoy being with Daphine. We'll definitely use her services in the future.
Rebecca was amazing with my girl, Hallie! I can tell Hallie enjoyed their time together, she looked so happy in the pics I received. Rebecca is a true animal whisperer. Thank you Rebecca for being so good to Hallie (and for spoiling her with her favorite treats)! Absolutely recommend booking with Rebecca!
Ellie was so great with our dog Milo! We had her come over twice to check on him while we were spending the day in DC. She was super cognizant of the heat and made sure Milo was comfortable on his walk. Ellie was communicative and sent great pictures of Milo during both of her visits!
Anhelika was great with our little guy. She helped us out and took him on a 30 minute walk during the work day that gave us peace of mind he was taken care of while we are working. He had a great time and looks forward to walking around the neighborhood with his new friend again soon.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Frederick on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 Frederick. 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 Frederick.

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 Frederick. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
