“Kristina was absolutely amazing. Our fur baby was very happy with her while we were gone. She had great communication and I’d highly recommend her. Thank you for loving on Tiko while we were away!”

About: My step-dad is a vet and I worked with him at the animal hospital from ages 11 to 26. We have a 66lb Berniedoodle (Preemo) and a cat (Guru). We have a big yard to play with dogs outside. It’s not fenced so dogs only go outside when supervised. I also trained aggressive dogs in the mountains of Mexico (Guanajuato) so they could get adopted instead of put down. I work during the day Mon-Fri and my wife mainly works from home so our pets aren’t rarely alone. I prefer to spend all day outside or at the park so dogs will get plenty of exercise. Our dog and cat love each other and everyone they’ve ever met. Our house is big and we have a lot of property to play fetch and run around.
About: We have a love for all animals! I have always had dogs in our lives since I was born :) I am a professional 40-something living the life in the Queen City! I have a single family home with a big backyard where your dog(s) can enjoy some play time with our dogs. I currently have 2 dogs: a chihuahua dachsund and a german shepard pitbull mix. Both are well socialized and friendly with dogs and humans. There are no children on the premises. Please have a completed profile, including photos of yourself and your pets. You can tell a lot by a person's profile. Because I already have pets onsite, a meet & greet is a MUST! Please inquire by sending me a message. Thank you! :)
About: •Please read before booking• -No uncrated pets, this means they are used to being in a crate NOT that they will be let themselves be put in one. If a dog is not crate trained, forcing them in a crate somewhere unknown will cause stress. Unless I have sat your dog before and have had experience with them uncrated, this applies to everyone. This to prevent injury or destruction of property. Crating only happens at night or when I’m not home (rare) otherwise they will roam. -Drop offs, pick ups, and meet ups will happen strictly outside the house unless agreed otherwise. Do not barge into my house please ;( -Late fee will apply after 15min of no show past agreed time. I have experience with multiple dog breeds and sizes for over 8 years. I have done everything from dog sitting energetic dogs to relaxed dogs. A usual day involves: potty time, feed time, 30min settlement for food, then leisure time. After 2hrs of their food break they will go out potty and then again every two hours after that. I do have some experience training dogs (although not a professional) this engages them and allows for mental stimulation. I am home fulltime and can provide continuous care for your friend! Schedule is updated daily please shoot me a text if you need more details or require help. Schedule changes week to week so please send request and will talk to you about availability (specifically for drop-ins) not applicable to boarding/doggy care Fully fenced yard, big full front yard, lots of space inside as well in case bad weather doesn’t let them run around outside. I supervise when they’re outdoors/indoors. I prefer to crate if I am away to prevent injuries, if you’re dog isn’t crate trained please let me know.
About: The services I offer are dog walks and check ins. I am currently 26 years old and graduated from UNCC in May of 2022. I have always loved animals ever since I was a little girl. I started caring for family and friends animals when I was 12 years old and will often help out friends and family when they need me to. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I will take the time to love and care for your animal like it was my own. I always try to go above and beyond whatever my task is. I hope to one day be able to care and love your animal as if you were there. I work part time during the week but I am free all day during the weekends. I would be able to provide walks and daily care for your pet. I have two cats and one dog who are very loving to all humans and animals . I want your pet to feel comfortable while you are away.

“Abygail was incredibly flexible and accommodating for our dog walking/check in request. She was reliable and super responsive by message. We will definitely use her in the future if needed.”

“faith was soooo amazing with my dogs!!! i have 3 rescues who each have their individual quirks and needs and she did so good with them! i was definitely able to enjoy my trip knowing they were in such good hands :)”


“Noelle has been taking care of Sage for me for months now. I work long shifts and have an unpredictable schedule so it is so helpful to have a reliable walker to let her out while I am at work. Noelle has always been super responsive and timely. Sage loves her and I love the peace of mind that shes getting a good walk in while I'm working”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12, walking them, taking them out, playing with them, and having down time. I have two dogs currently, a small one and a large one, so I can care for any size dog! I love pets of any kind! I currently work part time and am a part time college student but I have free time in the day and some nights! I love pets so I will fit my schedule around them! I will be caring for my clients pets in their home. I can care for them with any specific routines and schedules as needed. I am flexible.

About: I’ve grown up taking care of cats and dogs of all breeds. I have always had 2 dogs and at least 1 cat at my family home and have been hired by family and friends to care for their pets. I recently moved to the area and I miss my family’s pets so much. I work from home and can work just as easily from yours! This leaves me with plenty of time to play with your pet and ensure they are getting all day care! I have a backyard and am very close to reedy creek park! We can have lots of fun walking around or staying in my home.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was a little girl and just can’t seem to get enough of them. I currently own a 2 year old beagle who is by far my bestest friend in the entire world. His name is Benny and he’s the light of my life. Benny lovessss other dogs just as much as I do so instead of getting another dog we thought we would try dog boarding on weekends so we can both be fulfilled with another furry friend. I have a huge fenced in backyard where the dogs can have the time of their lives so if you’re looking for a weekend home for your pup where he will have another dog pal and experience all the love and fun, please drop them off with me. Since Benny is a beagle and has a bunch of energy, we take multiple walks a day through the neighborhood so he can get his sniff on and may hit the dog park if the weather is nice. Basically my life revolves around my dog lol. Join us for a fun time I work a hybrid schedule where I have to be in office 3 days out the week. Since I’m able to choose which days I go in and which days I stay home, I can keep dogs for a long weekend starting on Thursdays if needed. I’d like to be home most of the day if we have a special guest staying with us. Your dog will receive my full attention during each visit ensuring they are getting all the head rubs and ball throws possible. I have a high energy beagle so having a large fenced in backyard is very helpful but also daily walks for them to get some energy out. If I have a dog guest, I’ll plan on staying home most if not all day to make sure I can keep an eye on both of them and to make sure they’re getting enough attention around the clock.
About: Family and friends always compliment me on how good I am with pets. This is mostly because I grew up with every pet you can think of. I’m reliable and stay on schedule and make sure everything is clean and safe. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I WFH, so I have plenty on time on my hands for check ins. Mornings are a bit iffy depending on the time but other than that I’m available. I make sure they aren’t getting into anything that they aren’t suppose to, I make sure all pets are safe and well taken care of. Plus, I love to play with playful/friendly pets.
“Amanda goes above and beyond with every walk! My dog is crazy so getting photos of him is tough. She brought her real camera along to snag a picture for me in sport mode. Cannot recommend her enough!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Harrisburg is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 November 2026, there are 5,130 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Harrisburg. 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 Harrisburg. 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 Harrisburg 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 Harrisburg. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 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.
