Eve has been beyond helpful with my two pups, really going above and beyond by sharing extra knowledge re: my puppy's recurring UTIs, sending me pictures of their poop when I requested due to my pup having loose stool, etc. She even added a walk at the last minute for me! Her knowledge, experience, and passion are obvious, and I highly recommend her!

Selena is a champ! Arya doesn’t do a lot of people, but Selena got her on the first meet and on their first walk! We will definitely be using her again!

About: I’ve grown up taking care of family dogs and cats, and now have two 6 year old cats of my own! Additionally, I’ve volunteered at the RVSPCA with the cats weekly for the past two and a half years. I work Tuesdays through Fridays but am available late evenings every night and all day on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays to take care of all your pet needs! I like to treat every pet like they are my own, and will always do everything in my power to make sure that they remain safe and feel like they are in a safe environment while you are away.

About: I have assisted with dogs my entire life and they have always been in the best care and never needed for anything while with me. I have unlimited time to devote to pet-sitting especially during the day and any dog will be my sole responsibility while my son is in school. I will always give them my undivided attention and interact and care for them as if they were my own and make them the focus.

Jessika is wonderful! She genuinely loves my dog and he is always excited to see her. I always get lots of pictures and details. Even though it’s just a 30 minute walk, I appreciate the extra effort. Would absolutely recommend!

About: Aside from having a dog in my family my whole life, I've taken care of many dogs over the years. From my neighbor's golden retriever in high school (who I would sneak over to play with when she was out in the yard) to a few dogs in my neighborhood now, I love to get to know the dogs that I help take care of. I have experience dog walking and pet sitting, both in my home and visiting the dog's home. I'm also happy to provide baths and other special care as needed. As a stay at home dad, I have a flexible schedule and can provide a lot of attention for dogs visiting our home, as well as work in a daily walk if that's part of their normal routine. We have a large fenced yard that your dog can enjoy. We've had a variety of dogs stay with us either with or without crates and we can create separate areas with gates if necessary. If your dog stays with us, I have a flexible schedule to provide a lot of attention and with a family of 5 there's always someone around to play with, pet, or sit with your dog. Our friendly beagle is always happy to have a new friend to play with and he's more than willing to share our daily walks around the neighborhood with another friend.

Zoe was great! She was always on-schedule and was very patient with my weird little girl. She does things like hiding when it's time to go out and then pulling a LOT once you finally get her out. But Zoe never complained and always hung around with the baby for a few minutes of love and play after the walk. My schedule has changed and no longer need a dog-walker, but if I ever need one again, will definitely look for her!

About: Hi, I’m Cindy! I’m currently a nursing student and work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide your pet with plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’ve been caring for animals for years. I started pet sitting in high school, worked at a pet resort, and have continued pet sitting because it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. I’ll also send plenty of photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I also have a friendly Cane Corso, so if your pup enjoys being around other dogs, supervised playtime is an option. If your dog prefers their own space, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. As a mom of three boys who absolutely love animals, our home is full of love and attention. Your pet will be treated with the same care and affection as our own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Feel free to message me with any questions—I can’t wait to help care for your best friend. I work from home and am currently in nursing school, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide your pet with plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddle time, I’ll make sure your pet stays on their normal routine and receives lots of love and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a friendly Cane Corso who gets along well with other dogs, but I can easily separate pets if that’s what makes everyone most comfortable. I keep a clean, safe environment and closely supervise all interactions. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing.

Kim was awesome! Ms. Binky is recovering from CCL surgery so she is a bit of a special needs case as she works on getting her ROM back. After each visit I got a super-cute pic of Binky and I could tell she was happy with the visit because she was playing with a toy in one picture and carrying her favorite ball in the other. I will definitely book Kim again and I know that Binky will give two paws up for the next visit.

I’ve currently just moved back to Virginia and am looking for a flexible work schedule so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups!

About: I have years of experience caring for my dog and former cats. I am also the kind of person who always finds the dog at a social function, so pet sitting is my favorite job. It is important to note that I live on a military base, and clients who do not have access will need to be checked in. I am mostly free all day Thursday-Tuesday and will be able to provide most of my time to caring for your pets. At home, I feed my dog twice a day, and I take her for impromptu walks 1-3 times a day. I will adhere to a client’s usual schedule if needed. I ensure that bathroom breaks are covered as often as necessary. I pay attention to a dog or cat’s personality or specific needs. I feed pets, play with them, supervise, clean pets and any messes, and take them out for walks or bathroom breaks as needed.

My dog came back happy and got a much longer walk than he normally does with me. She’s fast! She also brought a reflective vest for the dog and a light up collar. I felt my dog was safe with her. I love that she thought of everything.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hanging Rock

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Hanging Rock on Rover is $19.98 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 594 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hanging Rock. 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 Hanging Rock. 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 Hanging Rock.

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 Hanging Rock. On Rover:

  • 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
