About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in the house. I have experience caring for both from birth to end of life. I can give medications, hand feed, clean incontinence/accidents, scoop and clean litter boxes, administer subcutaneous IV fluids, walk, play, and anything your baby may need. I will care for them as if they are my own and would love to spoil them. My schedule is semi-flexible as I work from home. I’m available afternoons and evenings. Feel free to reach out if a different time is needed and I will see what I can do. I am offering drop in visits and walking for right now. I will be respectful of your property and sensitive and patient with your baby.
About: I've taken care of pups since my daughter brought home our first baby, Cookie. We trained her to give her paw, sit, lay, and to kiss at "kiss" command. It's the cutest thing ever. She has been the Queen of the house ever since and then came along, Cinamon which is Cookie's daughter. They are best friends! Cookie had pups a while ago and we held her paw during birth and cared for her babies until they left us to our family members. Cookie is now considered a Senior but I always find ways to accommodate her needs so she can keep being the queen! We take constant walks around our neighborhood and also hang out in the big backyard. I'm currently not working; therefore, I have plenty of times to board and do drop in visits. I leave out occasionally to do grocery shopping, doctor appointments, and/or church services. I do not have a fenced yard but we do have secured long leashes to the soil which makes them feel like they are freely roaming around. We prefer to crate overnight but if your pup cannot do training for special reasons, we can accommodate. We currently have two small pups, a Yorkie and her daughter. They can be timid at first and will bark until they come down and get over the first couple minutes. We can put our babies away in separate rooms if needed be.
“Saraii was a great help to my family and I while I was traveling abroad. She was in constant communication and I felt confident my dogs were well cared for when they were with her.”

About: I’ve always had a deep love and respect for animals. From a young age, I’ve felt a special connection with all creatures, big and small. This passion has driven me to not only understand their needs but to also dedicate myself to ensuring they receive the best possible care. Whether it’s through daily walks, providing enrichment activities, or simply offering a safe and loving environment, I’m committed to giving animals the attention and compassion they deserve. I believe that every animal, just like every person, has unique needs and a personality that should be nurtured. I’m here to make sure your furry, scaly, or feathered friends are in the best hands possible. I work from home and can provide services on a flexible schedule from day and/or night daycare, walks, potty breaks and training. I also have reliable transportation for pets. I have a fenced yard, large inside area and designed space for animal care. All animals have space to enjoy and feel safe and loved.
“Steven is fantastic. I had a family emergency and the person who normally walked Tully was unavailable. Contacted Steve and he came right away for a meet and greet. My dog is a rescue so he doesn’t always do well with strangers but he was so happy with Steve right away. Steve asked if he could take Tully on a short introductory walk to make sure they were a good match which made me much more comfortable. Definitely would recommend Steve! Amazing with both families and fur babies!”

“Once again, Autumn took great care of our cats and for the first time also of our dog. She kept us informed after each visit and send great pictures of our babies. She also brought in a few packages that were delivered for us, thank you! Autumn is very responsible, responsive and the most caring! 💖 Until next time😊”

“Paola did a great job with our two dogs, who can be a lot to handle at the same time! She was prepared with leashes and bags just in case and was very helpful handling them during an outdoor family photoshoot!”
“Brittani has been walking my dog Denim this past week, and I honestly couldn’t be happier. Returning to the office has been a huge adjustment for both me and Denim since she struggles with separation anxiety, but Brittani has been so patient, kind, communicative, and reliable throughout the transition. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with, and that peace of mind means everything to me. Really grateful we found her, and Denim is too 🐾”

“Iveth has been a god-send these past few days. Her experience with the breed was what drew me to her and she has shown me she does truly love dogs. I look forward to having her in my circle.”

“Jeana is AMAZING. She is incredibly kind and wonderful to my dogs, understands their very different needs and goes above and beyond to meet their needs. She is also very quick with responding and very communicative (and takes the best pet photos!). She really loves the animals like they are her own and I can not recommend her enough.”

“Emma was super sweet! She agreed to walk our dog on a very short notice (1 day), arrived on time and even spent extra 5 minutes walking him. Additionally, she kindly offered to wipe the paws since it was wet outside. Outstanding service! I’m happy to have found an excellent walker on our first try. We will order more services moving forward!”

About: I've been around animals in general my entire life! I've had many pets and taken care of others pets in the past. I have a lot of experience in dealing with animals, as well as a high success rate when getting new animals to warm up to me.

“Hilary was great with our pug! She was reliable and provided updates and was even able to get our girl back in her crate after her walk, when she can be a bit stubborn. She was communicative and made booking and everything easy! Will definitely book Hilary again!”

Autumn is an absolute gem. She has taken care of our dog off and on over the last few years when we go away or if I need to go into work. She is by far the most trustworthy and caring dog walker I have ever had. She loves on my dog, cares for him with all the nuances any dog mom would have. She respectful of our home and always makes sure the rules/ requests are determined beforehand. She is the best!!!

Just finished our first week of dog walking with Kristal and she’s been terrific. I was nervous because it took some time for my dog to get acclimated with my previous walker so I thought it would take some time with Kristal as well but we hit it off from the bat. We did a meet and greet beforehand with my Coco being apprehensive but when walk day came there were no issues. I’ve already booked Kristal for the next 3 weeks for dog walking. Thankful to have found a replacement that my dog was comfortable with.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Friendly on Rover is $21.4 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 15,348 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Friendly. 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 Friendly. 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 Friendly.

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 Friendly. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
