About: I am a reliable and attentive pet walker who loves getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I provide safe, engaging walks tailored to your pet’s needs, with plenty of care and attention. As a pet owner, I go the extra mile, I’ve even taken my own cat camping and to the beach, so I understand how to keep pets comfortable and happy in any environment. 🐾 I am currently taking a break from work and have plenty of time to adventure! I start my days generally early so I will be available! When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining a safe, calm, and familiar environment. I carefully follow all care instructions to ensure consistency and minimize stress. Safety is always a priority, from securing the home to monitoring surroundings during walks. I also value trust and professionalism, providing reliable care while treating your home and pet with the utmost respect.

Sheila is great! She took care of my two dogs this evening and made them feel comfortable. One of my dogs has a severe anxiety disorder so taking him for a walk is no easy feat. She handled it and got him to walk for her. I am so grateful to Sheila for this. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog walker.

About: We are a dog/cat family who welcomes all dogs who are good with children, other pets, and our 3-year-old rescue girl Luna! She is a love and would really like to make some friends. I currently work from home and have flexible hours during the week. My weekends are dedicating to being a cheer/soccer/basketball/dance mom, which makes me a professional time juggler! I keep my pet on a leash at all times unless in an area where she is safe to run without being a "flight risk".

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have plenty of experience taking care of dogs, along with other animals such as goats and bunnies. There was never a time in my life where my family didn’t own at least one dog. When I'm home I love hiking with my Pyrenees Mountain dog. I currently work a full-time job from 8:30-5 pm Monday through Friday. I will be working remotely so I will be able to hangout with your pet during this time. I currently have a dog and two cats so at the time I am not offering pet boarding in my house but I will watch your pet from your home and provide potty breaks and walks. I will be working from home so I’ll be able to hangout with them during the day while I work.

About: I’ve taken care of our dog (black Australian labradoodle) Levi since we got him almost 4 years ago. We also have chickens, so I’ve been around animals for most of my life! I love walking my friend’s dogs, and playing fetch with Levi in our yard, or going on runs together!! 🐾 I’m free at any time on the weekends, and during the week until July 31st I’m available in the early mornings (before 7am) and evenings (after 6pm). After July 31, I’m available any day, any time for the rest of the summer! In my home town, I walk my dog on a leash and make sure that he’s secure. Depending on your dog’s needs, I’m ready and willing to take any additional safety precautions.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Gloucester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Gloucester 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 7,162 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Gloucester. 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 Gloucester. 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 Gloucester.

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 Gloucester. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
