“I highly recommend Tiera! She has been walking my boy, Ozzy, and has been wonderful from day one. She is dependable, professional, and always arrives at the agreed upon time. I never have to worry because I know Ozzy is in good hands. One of the things I appreciate most is that she sends photos during every walk, which gives me peace of mind and lets me see what Ozzy is doing during their walk. She is also patient, caring, and attentive to his needs, and it's obvious she genuinely loves the dogs she works with. If you're looking for someone who is reliable and trustworthy, I wholeheartedly recommend her.”

I have years of experience caring for pets of all ages and types (lizards, rabbits, guinea pigs, dogs, cats, sugar gliders, birds, etc.). I am currently home full-time and am available for multiple visits to your home any time of the day. I am comfortable with pets that have medical needs, and am able to administer medications both orally and via syringe if needed. I have experience administering shots, intravenous fluids, and insulin, as well as other medical needs. I can also do nail clipping for cats. I care for pets full-time and am available seven days a week and holidays for either walks or drop in visits any time of day. Safety is of extreme importance to me. I treat all animals with care as if they were my own. I can accommodate any types of requests to ensure the environment for your pets is up to your standards while you are away.

About: I have grown up with animals since I was born. I have experience with cats, dogs, rodents, reptiles and fish. I love spending time with animals and have been a professional pet sitter and walker for 5 years. Additionally, I have worked as an animal care professional where I specialized in administering medication, cleaning enclosures, and creating enrichment. My love for animals inspired me to study biology and am currently pursuing my PhD from the University of Maryland. As a student, my schedule is very accommodating. I can't wait to meet you and your fur babies! I am a full time student with most of my classes online. My schedule is very flexible and I can usually accommodate last minute bookings. I will treat your pet as if they are my own. I am very detail oriented and will follow whatever instructions you give me to a T. I believe it is important to keep to a pet's regular routine and will make sure they get plenty of food, water, walks, and love when needed.

Yutong Jason S. .. the S is for Saint .. I was attending the Power to the People festival in Columbia, MD on Oct 3, 2026 .. i had to find a dog walker that morning to handle my 15 mo old German Shepherd puppy staying w/me in the Staybridge Suites while I attended the festival .. Jason responded to my request in a matter of minutes .. he had no hesitation in dealing w/the front desk for access to the room .. he covered both 3PM & 7PM walks, feeding & sent status reports so that i could enjoy the festival. I am so grateful to this young man for his prompt and professional service. You'd be lucky to get him.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hopewell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Hopewell is $19 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $27 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 15,466 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hopewell. 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 Hopewell. 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 Hopewell 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 Hopewell. On Rover:

  • 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
