About: Growing up my coaches did Rover. I stayed with them very often and helped them take care of their 6 dogs as well as any pets they were taking care of for work. I am a full time college student saying at home. Majority of my code is held online so I am very flexible when it comes to pick up and drop offs! I will make sure to follow the pet parents instructions as no one knows their children better than the parent. I understand that all pets are different so it is important to pay special attention to direction.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and plenty of other furry, feathered, and even scaly friends, for over 25 years, including my own pets as well as those of friends and family. I understand that every pet has a different personality. I believe every pet deserves to be met where they are, and I take the time to earn their trust. Whether your pet loves to play, prefers quiet companionship, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. As a self employed hairstylist, my schedule is flexible and gives me time throughout the day for pet visits and walks. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, when my schedule allows, and I always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn their routine, respect your home, and provide updates with photos so you can relax while you’re away. I always double check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions, and I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and patience I give my own. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and always let them set the pace when building trust.

About: I’m back on Rover by popular demand! I took a break because I was lucky enough to have consistent clients and repeat pups who trusted me with their care since 2022. Over the years, I built amazing relationships with families and their dogs, but some of my furry friends have moved away with their humans, so I’m excited to open my schedule again and meet new pups! I’ve been called a “dog nanny” because I go beyond just walks and feedings. I truly care about making every dog feel safe, loved, and understood. I treat every pup like they’re my own and take the time to learn their personality, routines, and needs. I have experience with training, reinforcing commands, and helping dogs build confidence through patience and positive attention. I have a special place in my heart for rescue and shelter dogs, especially those who may have had difficult past experiences and need extra time, compassion, and understanding to feel comfortable. Having cared for family dogs through all stages of life, including their senior years, I’m comfortable providing medication support, extra patience, and attentive care for older dogs. I also love keeping up with high-energy pups who need playtime, exercise, enrichment, and lots of engagement. Whether your dog is a playful puppy learning new commands, an energetic adventure buddy, a shy rescue learning to trust, or a sweet senior needing extra care, my goal is to provide the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own pets. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends and am open to last-minute requests when my schedule allows. As a dog owner, especially of larger breeds, I understand that life can be unpredictable and that sometimes you need someone reliable who can step in and make things easier. I value clear communication and transparency, so I’ll always be upfront about my availability and your pet’s care. I provide a calm, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel safe and at home. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I take time to learn their routines, personalities, and comfort levels. My home is a quiet space where pets can relax, receive plenty of attention, and maintain a sense of normalcy while their owners are away. I provide regular potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection while also respecting when a dog needs quiet time to rest. As a dog owner, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each dog feels comfortable in my care.

“Jen did a fantastic job watching my dog Crosby. She was extremely responsive, very good at communication and had a genuine love and sweetness towards my dog. She was recommended by another pet sitter while she was on vacation and I couldn't be happier with Jen. I will certainly call her for future visits with Crosby and I know he will be happy too.”

About: My preferred name is Leo. I've been caring for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I was responsible for helping care for three family dogs, including feeding, walking, playing with them, and making sure they were happy and well cared for. I also grew up around cats, as my mom had several throughout the years, so I'm very comfortable caring for cats of all ages and personalities. Today, I have a cat of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility and attention that pets need. I'm patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, companionship, or simply someone to keep them safe and comfortable while you're away, I'll treat them with the same love and care I give my own pets. My schedule is very flexible, and I'm available seven days a week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. I work on my own schedule, so I can usually accommodate last-minute bookings as well. Whether you need someone for a quick check-in, daily visits, overnight care, or extended pet sitting, I'll do my best to be there whenever you need reliable care for your pet. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I keep my home clean, organized, and pet-friendly. I currently care for my own cat, who is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and well loved. I make sure all of my houseplants are non-toxic to pets, keep anything potentially dangerous out of reach, and provide plenty of toys, enrichment, and a cat tree for play and relaxation. I'm attentive to each pet's individual needs and always make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean space, exercise, affection, and plenty of attention. I also have experience helping cats socialize through supervised playdates with friends' cats, so I understand how to create a calm, safe, and positive environment. I'll care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own.

About: What sets me apart is the love, patience, and attention I give every animal. I believe pets are family, and I care for them as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I’m comfortable keeping them on their regular routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and administering basic care. As an ESA owner myself, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy helping puppies burn off energy through play and can provide extra patience and gentle care for senior dogs who may need a slower pace and more attention. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, secure, and cared for until their family returns. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work three days a week—Sunday through Tuesday—so I’m very flexible during my four days off. On those days, I have plenty of time to provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and personalized attention. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their family is away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also provide updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is to treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own ESA, Millie.

About: I believe great pet care is about more than just taking a dog for a walk- it's about making them feel safe and loved while their person is away. I'm dependable, attentive, caring, and patient. I'm comfortable around dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I pay close attention to each pet's routine, behavior, and individual needs, and I'm big on communication so you will always know how your pup is doing. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a little extra patience, or companionship, I'll treat them like they're my own. I adopted my previous pup at the age of 6 years old and he lived to be 12. He already had a lot of health issues when I got him but loved him through and through until the day he crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. Best decision I made when I adopted him. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs, so pet care is something I look forward to. I work during the day, but I have flexibility in the evenings and on weekends to give your pup the attention and exercise they need. If you live close enough, I can come over during lunch and give your pup a nice walk. I'll be offering dog walking only, with lots of care and attention to your pup. When I arrive, I'll follow your instructions, treat your home with respect, and make sure your dog is safely leashed before we head out. I'll also double check that doors and gates are secure when we return. My goal is to make every walk safe, fun, and stress free for both you and your pup.

About: Hi, I'm David! I live in Grant Park just off the Southside Beltline with my two cats, Iggy and Nero, and I've had cats my entire life. I grew up with dogs too, so I'm comfortable with pets of all personalities, from the shy cat who hides under the bed to the dog who wants to sprint the whole Beltline. For cats, I know the details matter: fresh food and water, a clean litter box, checking that they're eating normally, and making time for play or quiet company depending on what your cat prefers. For dogs, I offer neighborhood and Beltline walks with plenty of sniff time, and I'll follow your routine and leash rules exactly. I've used Rover for over 10 years to have my own pets cared for, so I know exactly what it feels like to be on your side of the booking. Reliability and communication are what I care about most. You'll get photo updates every visit along with a quick note on how things went, and I'll always show up when I say I will. Your pet will be cared for the same way I care for my own. My weekday schedule is flexible, which makes me a great fit for midday walks and recurring visits. I serve Grant Park and nearby neighborhoods like Ormewood Park, Cabbagetown, Reynoldstown, and Summerhill. I'm happy to set up a free meet and greet so you and your pet can get to know me first! My weekday schedule is flexible, so I can handle morning, midday, and evening visits as well as recurring weekly walks. I also take weekend and holiday bookings when my calendar allows, so reach out early for travel dates. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and respond to messages quickly, so you'll always know where things stand. Your pet's safety comes first on every visit. On walks, I always use the leash and harness you provide, check that collars and gear are secure before heading out, and keep a close eye on traffic, other dogs, and anything on the ground that shouldn't be eaten. During drop-ins, I make sure doors and windows are closed behind me, food and medications are put away, and your home is left exactly how I found it. I'm happy to follow any house rules or special instructions, and I'll check in with you right away if anything seems off with your pet.

About: I’ve had all kinds of dogs and dog breads in my life. I love them so much! My son is 1 and he loves dogs sooo much. The key is making sure they love him back. Haha! This is a great opportunity to get him around more animals as well as getting outside and having some fun with your pets! I am currently working part time with a night shift. I am free all day and can’t wait to integrate your loved one into my schedule. I make very sure to respect your pet and your house when I am there. Animals are so smart and able to pick up on good vibes right away. So I try to only bring the good vibes! I treat the whole time as I would want my house and pet to be treated. I feel so honored to be the one invited to show your pet some love while you’re gone.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for 14 years now, including my own and many friends, neighbors, and family. I work as a veterinarian. I’m willing to bathe your pets in addition to their basic needs. I know how to administer injections and other medications your pet may need. I take my currents pets out 3 times a day, and feed twice daily. I like taking them to parks once to twice a week if the owner is okay with that. I would take them out as many times as you see fit before and after class. If your pet is social they can play with my 10.5 year old and 3yr old. Both are very dog friendly and easy going. I do request them meeting outside before I bring them in. I do not believe in leaving your pets with mine while I am gone. Therefore the will be seperate when I must leave.

About: I’ve been around both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy caring for them. Whether your pet is full of energy and loves to play or prefers a quiet day with plenty of cuddles, I’m happy to match their routine and make them feel comfortable. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m comfortable caring for puppies that need extra attention and consistency, senior dogs that require a slower pace and gentle care, and cats that enjoy anything from interactive playtime to simply having a calm, caring companion. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. Pet care has always been a meaningful part of my daily life. My dog Bo has been with me for 8 years, and I truly treat him like my child. Caring for him has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, attention, and making sure pets feel loved and comfortable every day. I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide quality care, attention, and companionship for your pet throughout the day. I enjoy building pet care into my routine through walks, playtime, feeding, and spending quality time with animals. I’m also available on weekends and can provide a reliable, loving environment when you need someone you can trust. I understand that pets are family, and I will always treat your pet with the same care, love, and attention that I give Bo. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet I care for. In my home, I have a fenced-in yard where pets can enjoy outdoor time, play, and get fresh air while staying secure. I also have my dog Bo, who has been with me for 8 years. He is very friendly and loves having company, so he can be a great companion for your pet while they are staying with us. We keep a clean, welcoming home where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and stress-free. I understand every pet has their own personality and needs, and my goal is to provide the same love, care, and attention that I give Bo.

Sean has walked Bijou many times now (close to ten) and it’s clear how much she already loves him. She is very sensitive so I KNOW when Bijou really loves someone it’s because they are patient with her on walks. I’m so grateful to have someone close I can depend on to help when I really need it.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Hapeville is $18 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $33 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 6,615 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hapeville. 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 Hapeville. 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 , 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 Hapeville 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hapeville. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
