About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish, and I treat every pet like part of the family. I'm attentive to each animal’s unique needs and have a calm, gentle approach—whether it’s playing with an energetic pup or giving extra care to a senior pet. I’m also reliable, patient, and happy to follow any special routines or instructions to help your pet feel safe and loved. I teach ESL online, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to work from anywhere. That means I can stay at your home and be present throughout the day to care for your pet—whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m able to build my routine around your pet’s needs. I offer in-home pet sitting, which means I can stay at your home to provide consistent care and companionship while you’re away. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own familiar environment.

I’ve used Marie every day for a month, and unless she suddenly retires I’ll never change. Courteous, polite, attentive to my dogs needs and most of all kind. She even bought in an Amazon delivery for me so it didn’t get stolen! What an amazing soul.

About: I’ve had a passion for caring for animals since I was a child. I have 25+ years experience ranging from dog walking to in-home boarding. I have two dogs of my own. I am also well-experienced with senior dogs and bring a very calm demeanor. I am currently taking a break from corporate life and have flexible availability! I am typically available any time M-F, though occasionally I travel on weekends. I have a fully fenced in yard with two dogs at home. My dogs are social and love meeting new friends! I know that it can be unsettling for a dog to stay in someone else’s home, but we’re pros at welcoming others into our pack!

About: Hi! I’m Megan, a stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, whether you’re heading to work or taking a vacation, so my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, and I understand that every pet has different needs. Whether your furry family member loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. As someone who spends most of my time at home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide lots of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and updates throughout the day. I know how reassuring it is to receive photos and messages while you’re away, so I’ll happily keep you updated on how your pet is doing. My priorities are safety, patience, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I believe every animal deserves kindness, consistency, and lots of love. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and provide plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and daycare on most weekdays and weekends. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine and provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, love, and plenty of updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking. I provide a calm, loving environment, closely supervise all interactions, and follow your instructions carefully. Because I have young children, I only accept friendly pets that are comfortable around kids, and I always recommend a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure everyone is a great fit.

About: My family has owned many dogs in my lifetime, some had to be put down, and some still alive today. One of which is named Morgan and she lives with my dad :) Dogs are amazing creatures and I'd be blessed to take care of any of their needs. I mean, they are creatures just like us after all.. 🐶🤍🌎 Im currently working a part time job which takes up my Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. So, I am open to dog walking on either Saturdays, Sundays or Mondays I particularly would like to walk dogs, so if they have a leash and they're well behaved, we're already on the right track for a nice refreshing walk :)

About: I’ve been a dog lover since about the age of 10 when we got my family dog, Shadow, a cockapoo. As a kid and while growing up, I even trained Shadow to compete in agility competitions and took him to training weekly while also practicing with him in the backyard! When I moved out, I got my own fur baby- a golden doodle named Bubity! Obsessed doesn’t even begin to describe how much I love my dog as I have a water bottle, pair of slippers, shorts and sweatshirt with him on it! I promise to treat your dog as if they’re are my own! I’m currently working as a nurse while also attending classes virtually for my masters. My schedule is a set Monday- Friday in the office from 830AM-430PM! I am pretty flexible and can come to your house during my lunch break if needed to let your furbaby out! I have a fully fenced in yard and my one golden doodle at home. I am more than happy to host your dog for play dates in our yard. I know how hard it is to get a routine set with your dog whether it be something as simple as turning the TV on before leaving the house, walking a specific route to get them to go potty or giving them a special treat when they’re going to be left alone. Whatever your routine is, let me know and I will follow it to its entirety!

About: I’ve had a variety of pets my whole life; dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, lizards, turtles, rats, ferrets, and fish! I’m very comfortable being around animals. I am currently a nurse but enjoy being around these furry creatures so much that I wanted to do this on the side! I promise you your pet is in good hands with me. This will be more a reward for me than a job ❤️ Weekdays after 3 I’m typically always available. Other times throughout the day and weekends will vary, so please just ask! I will do what I can :) I can work with you and your pets needs. Whether they use an automatic feeder or need manually fed, I can provide what is needed.

About: Since I was young, I’ve always had a pet. After college I finally got a pet of my own and they’ve just multiplied over the years! Dogs are my specialty - I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family & I’ve trained both of my dogs since they were puppies. I’d say what sets me apart from others is that I have plenty of time in the afternoons (and any time during the weekend) to take care of your pup because my job ends early in the day unlike a 9-5 job. I have years of experience under my belt and I just really love animals. Always have and always will! As a teacher, I am always home early on the weekdays so I’ll have plenty of time every afternoon to play with & walk your dog! I am available any time on the weekends and I can board Fri-Sun. My husband and I have a big fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! We are firm believers in lots of walks, lots of playtime, and positive reinforcement. If needed, we can provide a crate as a safe space for your dog to lounge in. Our dogs are our children and we will treat your dog with the same love as we treat our own :)

About: Retired RN with 40+ years of experience caring for my own, family and friends’ pets, from puppy/kitty stages to senior years. Offering care to any aged pet with fun playtime thrown in too! Enjoying a walk with your dog at the pace that best suits them will be a priority. I also have a small dog who can accompany us on walks if your dog needs/enjoys social interaction. My main goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, well cared for and loved, treating them with the same dependability, warmth & attention as I would my own. Another aim is to keep pet owners informed and follow any specific needs/directions requested, including any medication administration to ensure a great visit. I will also take care of your home with the same respect as your pets - cleaning up after your pets & wiping dogs’ paws after a rainy, snowy, muddy walk! You and your pet can count on me to be reliable, consistent, friendly and on time. Retired with availability on both weekdays and weekends for drop -in visits and dog walking for the furry members of your family. Drop-in visits and dog walks are usually 30 minutes, but I have flexibility to increase the length to 60 minutes (see extended care) Your trust and your pet’s safety are very important to me. While caring for your pets in your home I will respect your space, follow your instructions & always make sure that doors, crates and gates are closed. On walks I’ll make sure to keep an eye on your dog’s body language, needs and have water & treats available to ensure that it is fun, safe and filled with some good sniffing time too!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine passion for animals and my extensive experience in pet care. I am attentive to each pet's unique needs and personality, ensuring they receive personalized care and affection. My background and my commitment to maintaining a safe, loving environment further distinguish me as a reliable and caring sitter. I have almost 10 years of experience working with animals, mostly cats and dogs, and can say that I am one that both my family and friends can rely on when it comes to watching their pets. I am currently seeking to make dog walking/ pet sitting as my full-time job, so I am available anytime during the day or night to care for or walk any pet. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of space to play and relax. I provide regular feeding, exercise, and interactive play sessions to keep them engaged and happy. I maintain a clean and pet-friendly home, and I am always attentive to their needs and behavior. In my friends and families homes, I follow their specific instructions and routines to ensure consistency and comfort for the pets. I provide the same level of care and attention, including feeding, walking, playtime, and administering any necessary medications. I respect the client's home, ensuring it remains clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Ghent

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Ghent on Rover is $27.75 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 .

As of September 2026, there are 2,401 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ghent. 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 Ghent. 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 Ghent.

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 Ghent. On Rover:

  • 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
