“Allie is so great with my dog Sophie, who is a 13 year old lovable but leash aggressive dog. She handles her well and wasn’t hesitant to take us on as a client. She is also great about accommodating my unpredictable schedule, last minute requests and goes out of her way to be available for Sophie. Highly recommend!”

Jenevieve is amazing! She’s incredibly reliable, communicative, and always takes such great care of Luca. I have peace of mind knowing he’s with someone I can trust, and I’m so grateful to have found her. I would highly recommend Jenevive to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker! 🐾🤍
Very grateful for Monica, she took such amazing care of Violet and gave Gunther so much love and attention which I appreciate so much. Violet went on long walks and also started her heat cycle in the last few days of our trip, which Monica handled perfectly! Would definitely book her again and recommend her to care for your babies❤️❤️
“Ginny”, who actually goes by Frankie, was the best with my dog! Her customer service is awesome, my dog loves her, and he can’t wait to see her again. Frankie is responsible, safe, really kind, and great with animals! I’m so grateful and we’ll definitely be using Frankie (Ginny) from here on out!
Armando has gone above and beyond everything I hoped to find through Rover. He has taken Shelby out to socialize and has shown her so much kindness, patience, and genuine care. I feel completely comfortable knowing she is safe and in excellent hands with him. I’m truly grateful we found Armando and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their dog!
We booked Leilani for a last minute one-hour dog walk, due to needing a dog-free environment for an in home appointment. Leilani was quick to respond and came right over to give our precious puppy a much needed walk. We highly recommend her and would use her again. Thank you!
We just started with Ana, and I already really trust her. She’s been reliable and flexible — I asked her to come earlier than originally planned because of the heat, and she happily accommodated. I can tell she genuinely cares about Iggy; she’s patient with his quirks and makes sure he’s calm and happy before she leaves. She’s also very thorough with photo updates and notes, which I really appreciate. I feel completely comfortable having her in my apartment. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Hillcrest 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 9,866 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hillcrest. 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 Hillcrest. 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 Hillcrest.

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 Hillcrest. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
