About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and most of my past jobs have involved them in some way! I have been actively looking after cats, dogs, horses and other critters for close to 20 years. I treat every animal and home as if they were my own and have numerous positive experiences from pet owners. If you’re in the Hanover or McSherrystown area and are in need of critter care, please reach out! My work week varies as I currently work four days during the week. The days sometimes differ from one week to the next but I can definitely schedule certain days a week in advance. I am also available late afternoons on the days that I do work. At this time I cannot provide home services at my residence as we rent, not own, and have almost no yard. When pet sitting at a client’s house I respect and follow their rules and needs.

About: Hello, I have been taking care of my own pets all of my life, primarily small breeds. My pets now include, 2 dogs (tea cup Yorkie and mini goldendoodle) a mini lop bunny and chickens. I have also taken care of family and friends pets to include dogs and cats. I am most comfortable with small breeds, but open to larger as long as they are comfortable with me and friendly. My experience also includes medication administration for dogs. I am currently working part time Monday- Friday during the school year (August-May), but my availability for Rover is flexible. Just message me and we can work something out. Thank you. I will be available to care for pets in their own home, such as drop in visits or going for a walk around the neighborhood.
About: With 19 years of dog care experience, I’ve had the joy of working with dogs of all ages and personalities. As a stay-at-home mom to a wonderful 1-year-old, I know how important patience, and consistent. Because I’m home throughout the day, your dog will never be short on attention, playtime, or companionship. Whether it’s helping a puppy stay on track with training or providing gentle care for a senior, I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family.🐾 Pet care is woven into my day from morning walks, playtime, feeding time, to evening snuggles. Making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and part of the family. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine for comfort and consistency. In my home, pets get love, supervision, and a safe space—with bonus playtime from my gentle, animal-loving toddler!
“We were super impressed with Leilani and the way she cared for our dog, Doc. She took him out on a sweltering hot day but gave him plenty of time to do his business and then showered him with attention inside where it was cool. All the while she kept us updated and sent pics and a note when she was finished. Definitely recommend!”
“Fraya was great! I could tell that my dog was going to need to be walked and I was really happy we picked Fraya. Jaeger loved her when they met and that put me at ease quickly! She also takes some of the best pictures of my dog! I would highly recommend her!”

“Katie is fantastic! She’s been walking our great pyrenees puppy for 2 weeks now. She is so kind and our other two not so friendly dogs love her too! My puppy chewed something up and she cleaned it up so they wouldn’t eat it while we were at work! Absolutely recommend! We will definitely be repeat customers.”

“If you’re worried about a stranger being in your house look no farther! Tori is very kind with a great personality and can easily put your worries to rest within meeting her. Dominic absolutely adored her from the second she walked into the house! She is responsible, reliable and takes great photos of your fur baby as well. Would highly recommend!”

John, always gives them lots of love, fresh water and treats everytime. We are so happy to have John ! We know our pets will be well thank care of with John.

About: I currently have a 2 year old golden retriever, Rosie. I raised her from 8 weeks old and she’s the sweetest girl around. I grew up with dogs in my house and always helped take care and train them! I work from home majority of the time. I have hour long lunch breaks and tend to be free most weekdays! I also get off work early and tend to be most afternoons. I recently had a fence built in my backyard. I also own a large crate in the home if needed. My golden retriever, Rosie is a great play date, but if needed I can keep the dogs separated at all times. I have all safe dog treats and toys in the home. My dog is also up to date on all her shots!
About: I have had dogs all my life, cannot get enough of them! I will take pride in caring for your pup during a visit, overnight, or just a walk. I love playing with all kinds of dogs, and just showing them love. I can be very flexible with timing. I would like to meet you and your dog before the sitting or walk, just to get an understanding of how you would want everything to go. I want to get into the pet care atmosphere because I love all dogs, and want to make sure they are always being cared for and getting the exercise they need. I own my own business so for the next couple of months during my slow season I will have time any day of the week to help you get the walk in that your dog needs! I do want to ensure your dog is taken care of exactly how you would take care of them yourself. I would definitely treat your dog as my own and give plenty of love and attention to them during our walk.
About: I've been around animals my whole life. From the littlest of fish, to the largest of cows and other farm animals! I have 3 dogs of my own, two Colorado mountain dogs and a medium pittie mix. I also have 4 geckoes (2 leopards, a giant Madagascar day gecko, and my newest boy, a harlequin crested gecko!). I've dog-sat little dogs, big dogs, disabled and elderly dogs, as well as young pups and households with multiple animals! I will give you the best care, whether it be for your pets, home, or more! Right now I work part-time at a bakery on Sundays, and I am also a full-time college student! Thankfully, my schedule is very flexible and my attention will solely be on your furry friends. I always make sure to keep my client's homes clean and organized, and pay special attention to any extra tasks I'm giving, such as watering plants (I have dozens of plant babies!), changing the temperature, emptying dehumidifiers, and retrieving packages. Anything you need, I will do to the best of my abilities! I like to update my clients daily on their pets to ease their mind.
About: I own 2 huskies. I've volunteered with a dog rescue for 10 years fostering all types of dogs... 50 of them in fact. My husband and I have firefighter/EMT schedules so we're often home during the day, and handle emergencies well. We have an irregular schedule in my house. You will have to check my calendar for availability. We are often home during the week and daytime. My care for my dogs and foster dogs depend on the dog. My female dog is a princess who sleeps on the couch, but my male needs to be kenneled to keep out of trouble. We have a dog door to allow our dogs freedom to go in and out as they please.

About: A little bit about me: I am a new graduate RN looking to make some extra money on the side! I am an all around animal lover and have spent many summers & many winter breaks pet/house sitting throughout nursing school. I have had my fair share of animals throughout my life. We always had dachshunds growing up, and I learned to love their stubbornness alongside their undying charm, I have had what seems like a million cats … I thought I could save them all… at one point I had 12 of them! lol I know, very crazy cat lady. I spent lots of time & money nursing cats back to health & have successfully found many of them very loving homes, I can happily say I am down to 2 cats! One of which has asthma, so I am experienced in giving inhalers, even to cats who really do NOT want it. My other cat has lots of anxiety, so she requires two different medications to control that so I can also give pills. I also have a corgi who is 3 years old, she is the cutest, naughtiest, most complex little thing I have ever met. She has a seizure disorder and requires three different medications every 12 hours. Anyways, the point is I have lots of experience! And I would love to have the opportunity to help take care of your fur babies & give you piece of mind while you go on vacation or have to be away from home. I am willing to take care of animals full time so all day and all night I am available as long as I know in advance. I prefer to watch animals at clients home if possible. I am very focused on making sure animals are safe and happy. I am able to walk dogs safely as well as feed and bathe them or take them outside to use them bathroom as needed. I am willing to do drop ins or stay in the home for long periods of time if needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Hanover on Rover is $22.2 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 1,748 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hanover. 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 Hanover. 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 Hanover.
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 Hanover. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
