About: I started caring for animals at a young age when I launched a small neighborhood dog-walking business. From early on, I knew I wanted to spend my time around animals, and that passion has only grown stronger. Today, I’m the dog parent of two pups, Arlo (7) and Kirby (3), who truly are my pride and joy. Being a pet owner myself has helped me understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your fur baby. I’m patient, attentive, and compassionate with both people and animals, and I’ll treat your fur baby with the same care and love I give my own. I’m always happy to answer any questions you may have before booking! My availability is open during the week and typically weekends, providing the opportunity to meet your pets daily or weekly needs. I can be available during the morning and / or afternoon! I will carefully follow any instructions you provide. Keeping your pet safe and your home secure is very important to me and my standards. I always enjoy when my pet sitters provide updates during a day care or boarding session, so I plan to do the same!

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals and have been around pets my entire life. Growing up, I cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, and guinea pigs, which helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior and needs. For the past four years, I have worked at Camp Bow Wow Airport in Metairie, Louisiana, where I have gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My work has taught me how to provide safe, attentive care, recognize pet behaviors, and ensure dogs are comfortable and happy while away from their owners. In addition to my professional experience, I have also dog sat for family and friends, giving me experience with in-home pet care and maintaining pets' daily routines. I am passionate about animals and committed to providing loving, reliable care so pet owners can have peace of mind while they are away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I currently care for three dogs and four cats of my own, so my days revolve around feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, exercise, playtime, and making sure all of my pets are healthy, comfortable, and happy. Caring for multiple pets has helped me become organized, attentive, and comfortable managing different personalities and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have worked at Camp Bow Wow Airport in Metairie, Louisiana, for the past four years. My job has given me valuable hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I am responsible for monitoring their behavior, ensuring their safety, and providing attentive care throughout the day. Having grown up with dogs and cats, as well as caring for other animals such as hamsters and guinea pigs, pet care has always been a significant part of my life. Because animals are already part of both my personal and professional routine, I am confident in my ability to provide reliable, loving care and maintain a pet's regular schedule while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free. This includes feeding them according to their schedule, providing fresh water, ensuring they get appropriate exercise and playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. As the owner of three dogs and four cats, I am experienced in managing daily pet care tasks such as feeding, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior, and recognizing when something may be out of the ordinary. I understand that every pet has unique needs and preferences, and I make it a priority to follow any instructions provided by the owner. My four years of experience working at Camp Bow Wow Airport in Metairie, Louisiana, have given me additional experience handling dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether caring for pets in my home or visiting them in theirs, I strive to create a safe, clean, and positive environment while keeping owners updated and giving them peace of mind that their pets are receiving quality care.

About: I've taken care of dogs & cats for as long as I can remember. We keep our pets until they pass that rainbow bridge. I am very reliable and will always send updated photos every time I am with your pet to remind you they are in good hands. I am also experienced with large breeds and the tiniest of pets! Located in Petal, near the Library area 😊 Early mornings before school, or in the evenings are great as well. I usually sit outside with a cup of coffee in the morning so they can run around, then in the evening the door is open with free roam to come in & out. If care is done in my home we have a fenced-in covered fence backyard and two of our own dogs to play with. I also have two playful children who can play fetch for hours! If care is done in your home depending on being watched in a fenced backyard or on a leash. Your dog will be watched and given the attention they deserve.

About: I have doggy-sat many friends as a child, and stopped once I entered university. Most of these friends were small to medium sized but I am happy to care for larger ones! I can also help administer medications if needed. Tail wags are the aim for every visit! I am a recent graduate looking for work so I have plenty of time to care for your fur-babies! Happy to take early or evening walks and house visits. I like to play with pets or just cuddle if that’s more their vibe. Love giving enrichment toys so they aren’t bored and of course treats to all the good boys and girls!

I always make sure to pay attention to detail when watching a dog and meet each dogs needs whether that be a walk, playing with a toy, belly rubs, or even just relaxing.

I am available to come to your dog and stay with him/her so they do not have to move out of their comfortable environment and stay at a new space with new people.

About: Having grown up alongside my own 17 year old dog, I have a deep understanding of senior pet care. I am comfortable managing slow-paced walks and noticing any health shifts that come with old age. I am also comfortable with younger, more energetic pets. When being with pets, I don't just see an animal; I see a family member who deserves the same care I would give my own. Currently, I am a college student with a weekly routine that allows me to have full availability every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I am also available on Tuesday mornings. During the summer months, my schedule opens up completely! My approach to pet care is rooted in a "safety-first" mindset developed from a lifetime of caring for my own 17 year old dog. In your home, I prioritize security and routine, making sure your specific instructions are followed. This lifelong experience has made me an undistracted dog walker who checks for body language. Whether I am caring for a high-energy puppy or a gentle senior who needs a slower pace, I provide a patient and attentive environment where your pet’s safety is my priority.

About: Volunteering in animal shelters, fostering, and independent animal rescue work has given me years of experience in animal behavior and care. I live on a 7 acre rural homestead with lots of room to walk dogs. We do not have a fence so visiting dogs will always be on leash. I have a large room set aside as my petsitting room so that your pet can move around freely and we can have plenty of room to play and snuggle. My personal pets love other animals and are always up to date on vetting, so if they are compatible, they are more than welcome to romp and play with my fun crew! I currently work from home as a part time tutor and homesteader, so I am available to give your pets all the attention they need. Pet care is personalized. I will discuss your animals’ needs with you and we will determine what will work best for them in the way of living and sleeping arrangements. I’m very flexible and want what is best for your fur baby. Pet care is already a staple in my daily life. I'm a nurturer by nature. I often drive transports with 40+ dogs and cats cross country to their adopters and have to care for them all! I have one rescue dog who is very timid and dog friendly. She sometimes comes with me when I dogsit and sometimes stays at home with my partner, just depending on the situation.

About: A recent graduate of Mississippi State College of Veterinary Medicine with a bachelor's in Veterinary Medical Technology! I have had pets all my life and have gained experience while in school and through volunteering, and now through currently working at a local vet office as a technician. I also have experience in pet sitting at owner's houses and through repeat clientele for pet sitting and walking. I would love to gain additional experience through pet sitting/walking. I recently graduated from the Vet Tech program at MSU and currently work at a local vet office, so this allows me to take care of pets full time on the weekends! I can also do late afternoon walks or drop ins during the weekdays after work! With experience in pet sitting and walking, I’m ready to keep your fur baby entertained or, if they prefer, just relax and give them cuddles!

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. My first pet was a stray cat I named Smokey when I was 3 years old. We rescued my first dog, Lucky, from the pound for my fourth Christmas. I was gifted my first chocolate lab, Wesson, for my 6th birthday. I rescued a litter of kittens who’s mom got ran over by a car when I was 10. I still have two of those cats to this day - Prince and Tiggy (14 years old, happy, and spoiled rotten). When I went off to college I adopted my soul dog, a black lab I named Enzo, from the Humane Society. Unfortunately, he passed away in November of last year. The point is, I’m a genuine animal lover who will treat your pets like my own - because that’s what they’ll be in my care. Nothing brings me more joy than a dog licking my face or a cat rubbing against my leg. I promise your babies are safe with me. Not only will they be safe, they’ll be happy :) I’m currently working full time Monday through Friday 8-5. I can walk dogs, check on pets, play with them, etc. before 8 AM, during my lunch break 12-1, and after work (5 PM). I am completely open and free on Saturdays and Sundays. My apartment has a fenced in dog park right across from my apartment building that is very rarely used, but in good condition. I have two cats that I can keep locked on one side of the house if your animals prefer no company :). I am very flexible and can adjust to most needs your babies might have!

About: I've always had dogs. I work with rescues and have experience fostering. I treat animals as if they were my own. The price for overnight (8 hours) is different than 24 hours. Prices can vary and are negotiable, let's talk! I'm home all day and have an open schedule. I can help you at anytime day, night or overnight. I can't offer boarding due to our 5 furbabies at home. With my dogs, I'm always aware of where they are and their needs in the moments, because they don't all get along. I'm great at preventing and stopping a dog fight before they can even start. I was attacked as a child and still love dogs, it's not their fault. I'm great at reading animals once I know them. Seeing my dogs so happy while on walks makes me so happy. I always check the pavement with my hand before letting my pups walk on it in the summer. I'll follow your animals dietary routine, and if allowed they will always get treats from me. I'm also always sitting and laying on the floor to be at our dogs level, so you can expect the same.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hattiesburg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Hattiesburg on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 76 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hattiesburg. 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 Hattiesburg. 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 Hattiesburg.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
