“She went above and beyond in every way when it came to dog sitting our puppy Mia. Always on time, took her time with Mia, and went out of her way to make sure her needs were met. She did so great that our dog is gonna miss her! Glad I didn’t go with any other option. Brooke is a true blessing!”
About: I love all animals, but dogs are my favorite! I raised a miniature schnauzer for 15 years (RIP Dooney). I now have a senior rescue named, Layla Grayce. I’ve volunteered at many animal shelters and have fostered dogs as well. I will love your fur baby just as they were my own! Thank you for trusting me and allowing me the opportunity to look after your fur baby 💕🐶🐱😊 I work remotely from home. This flexibility allows me to make myself available as needed for your pets needs. I will honor your pups schedule for all feedings, walks, and potty breaks. Layla would be a great companion for your pup as she is gentle and calm. At bedtime, I can crate your pup or allow them to roam my home. I will give them the attention they deserve while doing my best to make sure they feel safe and at home. I’ll also take photos and provide frequent updates while I care for your fur baby :)
About: I have been a cat and dog lover and pet parent throughout my adult life. When I lived in Washington, I worked full time at a dog daycare and overnight boarding ranch in Snohomish. I also have a lot of experience petsitting and housesitting for family and friends. A few years ago, I job-shadowed a full time in-home pet sitter. All in all, I really enjoy spending time with critters and I look forward to meeting you and your critters! I am comfortable handling/administering medications to pets. I love to walk and hike with my dog. I would love to take your dog along to explore the trails if you think that's something your dog would enjoy. I have a fully fenced, partially shaded back yard. I currently have a small dog and 5 cats that your dog would need to be compatible with.
“We have a 70 lb. Shepherd/boxer mix and hired Brook to walk him 2x daily while we were on our family beach week. Brook was awesome w Finnegan and gave us piece of mind that his needs were met. She came over initially for a meet/ greet. I requested another meeting so we could take a short walk in the neighborhood. Brook is totally dependable and trustworthy. Thank you Brook!”
About: I've got over 15 years experience pet sitting, dog walking, and working in kennel environments. I've cared for dogs, cats, chickens, sheep, horses, and everything in between! I have 3 dogs of my own who love to meet and play with other dogs. I have special experience and a soft spot for senior pups who may need meds or have other special needs. I will love your furbabies like they are my own. I work from home 3 days per week and usually have weekends off from my full time job. I have a fully fenced yard with a dog door so as long as your pup gets along with my dogs they will be able to roam my house and yard freely all day when I am home. My pups are a mix of active and lazy/cuddly. My yard is fully fenced with special care to block any would-be diggers or jumpers. Dogs are crated when I am not home or cannot watch them. For dog walks, I can accommodate meals and medications if needed along with let outs and walks.
“Dinira was amazing and was able to step in on super short notice. She was very responsive, coordinated with another person while I was out of the county and left report cards with multiple pictures and helpful details. I’m so appreciative!”
About: My full time job allows for flexibility during the work day and allows me to work anywhere with wifi. I can often be in the home caring for your animals or taking them out more often than a traditional sitter who works a 9-5. I dog sit for many members of my family and have had dogs since I was 2 years old. I have a lot of experience giving medication and working with elderly animals. If I am available, I would love to set up a meet and greet to see if I would be a good fit! I am also insured! I work a flexible 9-5 and can drop in to walk or spend additional time caring for your animal(s) because of the flexibility! I wake up early as well! I treat each home like I am a true guest there and treat it and the animals if they were my own. I am very respectful of the rules and furniture.
About: Taking care of pets has been apart of my life for many years. I love them! I have been boarding puppies and adult dogs for family and neighbors. I have breeded dogs and have sold many healthy puppies. Pet care is a daily routine for me as I am a pet owner myself. Pet walking is a every day thing for me and my dog I have one on one care for the pets they are in the home with me on the couch or floor.The pet is put on a leash for potty breaks. If I am boarding a pet the pet sleeps in a cage inside my home.
About: I’ve taken care of, looked after, and had my own fur babies for over 15 years. Nothing makes me happier than getting to play, love, and just take in all the love a dog has to offer. My life would be incomplete if it weren’t for fur babies! I currently am not working at the moment so my schedule during the week is pretty open and flexible. I am here for all your pet needs. Right now I have a fenced in backyard where I care for my two fur babies. We have tons of toys as well as treats that we love sharing.
“Lyndsey did a great job with my Lexi. She sent me pictures and updates. My dog is a runner and I live my railroads so safety is very important. Lyndsey kept her safe and followed my instructions. I highly recommend!”
About: I am a huge dog lover of all kinds!! I have both big and small and adore all of the different personalities of dogs! I have been dog sitting since I was in high school whether that be daily checking or overnights! My fiancé and I are moving to the beach with our pupper and would love to love on your sweet pups! My fiancé is an online seminary student that works part time and I am about to begin a remote job that would allow me freedom to fit pet care into my daily schedule! I have worked with overnight at the owners parents as well as pups being brought in house. I respect the owners wishes for how they wish for their dog to be cared for whether that be long walks, crated, etc., regardless of my home or yours.
“I honestly can’t say enough good things about Chelsie! Leaving my dog with someone is always a little stressful, but from the moment I met her, I felt completely comfortable. She was so caring, patient, and attentive, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about my dog and treated him like her own. She kept me updated and sent me pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, my dog was happy and comfortable with her, and that means everything to me. ❤️ I’m so grateful for how well Chelsie took care of him. I would absolutely trust her with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly love and care for their pet. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️”
About: My daughter and I grew up helping take care of dogs and have been around them for as long as we can remember. We’ve looked after our own dogs as well as those of friends and family. There has never been a year in our lives without a dog in it, and we truly can’t imagine life without one! I currently work full time as a 2nd grade teacher, but I’m available for boarding, doggie day care, walking, dropping in, or playing with your dog during the week and on the weekends. My 17 year old daughter will be assisting as she absolutely loves dogs too. Our house is in a neighborhood. We currently have one dog who is a morkipoo and is very playful and loves other dogs. We are able to crate your dog if needed.
About: Hi! My name is Makaela Hawkins! I have always loved and owned pets and never seen myself not having a dog in my life. I absolutely love taking care of animals and getting some good exercise in with them! I treat all pups as if they were my own! I have years of experience with dogs and also worked at a pet nutrition center that sold high quality dog and cat food for a while! So if you have questions about pet nutrition, please don’t hesitate to ask me! I’m looking to fill my time with some pups and help some pet parents out as well! My schedule is pretty flexible and allows me to fit in lots of time for fur babies! I treat pets like my own, always giving them love and making sure that they’re taken care of. I love creating a comfortable space for both myself and my new friend. Transparency in terms of aggression, health history, and interactions with other pets and children are very important to me.
About: I have over 4 years of experience working in veterinary medicine, including emergency care, which has given me strong knowledge in recognizing medical concerns, handling high stress situations, and safely administering medications. I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs, including seniors and those requiring daily medications. In addition to my clinical experience, I’ve trained my own working line dog from 8 weeks old to adulthood, giving me hands on experience with puppy training, structure, and behavior management. I also currently have a young puppy, so I understand the patience and consistency needed for early training stages. This diverse background has made me confident handling animals of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. What sets me apart is my ability to combine professional veterinary knowledge with real world training experience, allowing me to provide safe, attentive, and reliable care for every pet. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine since I’m a full-time online student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m able to be home throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins, and I can easily adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. Whether a pet requires frequent potty breaks, structured routines, or just extra attention, I’m able to provide consistent and reliable care. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets on their normal schedule to reduce stress, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also make sure to keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a structured but relaxed environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and exercise. I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and comfort at all times, and I adjust care depending on age, energy level, and any special needs. With my background in veterinary medicine, I’m also able to monitor for any changes in behavior or health and respond appropriately if concerns arise.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs. I have experience caring for puppies and elderly dogs. I have an Aussie doodle puppy. I’m available for drop ins, walks, or sittings. I have a flexible schedule and will be available the majority of the day to care of your pets. If I have to leave during boardings, it will be only for short periods of times which will be communicated to you. I live in an apartment with plenty of space and a dog park. There is a nice neighborhood and park nearby for walks. For sittings at your home, I will respect your space and keep it clean. I have a puppy at home, so I am unable to stay at your home overnight. I will update you with as many photos or videos you’d like!
About: I have been a pet mom for years and now have my second dog. I trained her and would love to care for your pet! I have been the go-to person for my family for years. We have had tons of exotic as well as challenging pets through the years. I am a full time barista! But don’t fret, my shifts are never more than 7 hours and I have nothing stopping me from taking fantastic care of your fur babies! I am happy to provide anything you, or your pets may need including extra care, walks, play time and more! I will even go on outings if allowed.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Gum Tree is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Gum Tree. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Gum Tree after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Gum Tree. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
