“Isa did a great job with our dog, Frida. She’s reliable and communicative, and it’s clear from the pictures that all of our animals (dog and 3 cats) wanted to be around her! We recommend her for your dog and cat care needs, and we’ll definitely be rebooking her again.”
About: Vet clinic experience, lover of all animals at all life stages! In my care, they will receive patience, enrichment, affection, and love. I will make sure to heed your instructions about training things you are working on so your pet has continuity, and any other special care they need. Fun fact: I have 20 years as a spa therapist so I am a great person to give touch therapy to your babies 😀 I own a local day spa and work from home mainly. This means I am nearby always. Helping with walks and grooming, I will make sure to keep your fur love entertained and exercised to their level of normal routine. I will take your spot in their routine so your pet is less stressed while you are out for the day. Whether its a potty break, a quick stroll, some cuddle time, or a car ride to the park for burning some energy, your baby will be sure to trust their new "aunt Jamie"

“We had a very busy day and Hoko was home alone most of the day today, I was preparing for another graduation and needed someone last minute to walk Hoko, Laura was great and I truly appreciate her accepting our request on such a short notice.”
About: I’ve been a vet assistant for 3 years with a medical clerk license. Have experience with vaccines, medications, medical terminology, anatomy and equipment such as x-rays, ultrasounds. Worked in a small practice under an amazing veterinarian and eventually moved forward with her to now, currently working at our local humane society. I have been apart of galas raising money for our fur babies to pop up vaccines clinics in the low income communities. I’m currently looking to step away from full-time work at where I’m currently working to go back to school to become an esthetician. Looking for more part-time work to be able to focus on my studies while providing for myself. Like humans, no 1 persons needs are the same. Some require just a daily dose of cuddles while others seek after care from surgeries. At the end of the day animals deserve the same respect and care regardless of what their journey looks like. I love taking dogs on walks to enjoy the fresh air as well as simple grooming needs, to enjoying some downtime while we watch a movie together.
About: Your small dog wont just be watched - they'll be welcomed into a real home with teens, another dog, and a calm old cat who has seen it all. Your baby will be part of our normal household life... car pools, walks & lots of snuggles. As a stay-at-home mom to two teens, a Maltese poodle, and a cuddly old cat, pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. Your dog will be treated like part of the family — coming along on errands, joining us for walks, and even tagging along while I shuttle my teens to their activities. They’ll settle right in as one of our own. I am very active & walk/run daily! I would love to bring your pup along to explore all the things. My home has a fully fenced yard, so dogs have safe space to play and roam. I have a friendly Maltese poodle who’s used to new company (she even goes to work with her dad a couple days a week), and an unfazed old tomcat who’s seen it all and takes new dogs in stride.
“If you read Kimee's profile it becomes clear very quickly that she loves animals and by far this was the most important trait when we were looking for someone to walk our Penelope. The big thing about utilizing a service like this is building trust and Kimee has done that in a relatively short period of time. She's prepared, flexible, on time and communicative. We really couldn't ask for anything more and greatly appreciate what she does for our family. Thanks Kimee!!”
About: I've had pets all my life, and have worked at pet stores, kennels and vets. Animals are my true passion and calling and I do not discriminate against any species. I am currently unemployed and looking for a part-time way to make some extra cash. I figure, why not do something I love. My schedule is pretty open. I can do anything outside of my own home. I have cats and a dog, and don't think they would appreciate the company of other pets.
About: He cuidado las mascotas mías y de mi familia, ellos han confiado en mí para cuidar de ellos y darles de comer, jugar con ellos y llevarlos de paseo. Actualmente trabajo ha tiempo completo, pero tengo libre los fines de semana, así que si tú quieres salir y divertirte un poco yo puedo cuidar de tu mascota y jugar con ella. Vivo en un apartamento, así que puedo llevar a tu mascota a dar un paseo y si tú prefieres puedo cuidarlo en su entorno si es lo que deseas.
About: I’ve grown up around cats and dogs my entire life, we have never not had a dog in the family! We currently have large breed dogs that are treated like our own children. I have raised a couple of litters and work with my own dogs on behavioral training frequently. Since my own dogs have another home with my parents and are frequently visiting them, my friends have been asking me to house sit and take care of their dogs for years. I love providing my clients’ pets with comfort and care while their humans are away! I’m currently working part-time with a flexible schedule I can adjust with enough notice, but please know that for house sitting, I may be gone for up to 8 hours on a weekend day. I am happy to make small adjustments as needed to accommodate your pets care needs. Most of my friends’s dogs either sleep with me in bed, or on their dog pillow next to the bed (I love when they can sleep in bed with me!). I can accommodate feeding schedules, and can administer medication if needed. If the weather is nice, we can go for a walk or play in the backyard so your pup is getting some attention and exercise. I absolutely love to snuggle with pets, and can guarantee they will be loved on and paid attention to, especially at the end of the day when we are winding down for bed.
About: As an avid animal lover, I've always jumped at the opportunity to help take care of family and friends' fur babies while they are busy. Unfortunately, my current residence does not allow pets. However, I am more than happy to pop in for regularly scheduled chow times, walks, playtime, etc. I'm currently a full-time graduate student and part-time barista. Due to this schedule, my availability for pet care will be primarily in the afternoons and evenings. I understand and appreciate that every pet has a unique personality and reactivity. While actively following the owner's instructions, I practice patience and compassion toward a pet's wants and needs.
About: Experienced and dependable pet sitter with a lifelong background in animal care, having owned and cared for small to medium-sized pets since age 6. I’ve provided pet sitting for family members’ large dogs and cats, handling feeding, playtime, and daily routines with care and attention. I also have hands-on experience raising kittens from just days old, including bottle feeding and monitoring their health. I genuinely love working with animals—especially fluffy ones—and prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. 🐾 I am currently seeking pet sitting opportunities and have a flexible schedule during the week, allowing me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs, including visits, feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I work all day Saturday, Sunday, and wednesday; I work half days Monday and Tuesday and I am off thursday and Friday. I enjoy spending time with animals and prioritize creating positive, calm interactions—whether that’s playing, comforting anxious pets, or simply keeping them company so they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or any messes, and giving them attention through playtime, petting, or quiet companionship depending on their personality. I also make sure doors, gates, and safety areas are secure before leaving.
About: Hi there! I’m Jessi, and I truly believe life is better with animals. I’ve loved and cared for pets of all kinds, and that love runs deep in my family too — I have four amazing kids who share the same passion for animals. My home is full of energy, kindness, and plenty of love to go around. I would be honored to provide a safe, cozy, and caring space where your pet can feel right at home. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, playtime in the yard, or simply a quiet spot to rest, your furry friend will be treated like one of my own. I know how important peace of mind is, so while YOU take time to rest, recharge, or travel, I’ll make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved. Your pet will always be cared for with me! I will keep them company, whether that means playtime, snuggles, or simply providing a calm presence. This is a loving, safe, smoke-free home — a trusted place where your pet can relax, play, and feel comfortable. Your pet will love our home, and I’ll love having them here.
About: As a pet parent myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals in someone else’s care. I bring patience, affection, and attention to each pet’s individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys an energetic walk, a relaxed sniff around the neighborhood, or quiet companionship, I’ll follow their routine and help them feel comfortable and loved. You can also expect updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away! My flexible schedule allows me to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of individual attention. I’ll work with you to plan care around your pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I share my cozy one-bedroom apartment with my cat and bunny. There’s room for a visiting dog to relax, plus nearby parks for walks, fresh air, and exercise. To keep everyone comfortable and safe, I only welcome dogs suited to a home with cats and small animals, and I’ll keep my bunny securely separated from visiting dogs. I’ll discuss your dog’s temperament, routines, and needs with you before their stay.

Caleb was the best with Piglet! Piglet had never been walked by anyone before and it's only 6 months old. He was so good with him and is a true blue dog lover. He was right on time and spent extra time with me getting to know both of us on our first visit and from what I learned about him, you can't go wrong with Caleb walking or taking care of your dog. He's the best!
Maribel is excellent. I needed someone reliable to walk my dogs while I was on vacation. She is professional, timely and very careful with the dogs. I have a senior that needs a bit of attention on walks and Maribel did great. She always sent pictures and updates and was careful to confirm dates and times.
Garrett was the greatest! A real lifesaver when I dog sitting for a neighbor.. due to mobility issues I wasn’t able to do long walks like Riley needed.. enter Garrett. He was great in communication and punctual for every walk. He was patience with me and all my questions. Riley also had the best time during every walk. She got to get some the energy out she had and came home a happy happy tired girl. Garrett was great to Riley also you can tell he loves dogs and cats.. I will appreciate him and what he did for Riley and me always.. thank you! Pick him if you are looking for a dog walker you will not regret it!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Kent is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 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.

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 Kent. 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 Kent 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 Kent. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 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.
