I couldn't ask for a better person to walk my pup Ollie. This was our first time trying out Rover so we didn't know what to expect and Erick gave us comfort the first day we've met him. 10/10, very patient and communicates quick when we have a question about anything relating to Ollie.

About: My experience with pets is taking care of my orange tabby from a young age. As well as walking my neighbors Chihuahua whenever they were away on vacation. Currently off from school and my job has cut my hours, so I have full days avaliable for pet care. During the hours of 11-5 are the best for me Following the instructions given to me by the owner. While awarding the pet with treats if they work with my well, if accepted by the owner.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. Last year I adopted my own cat named Butters. I’m currently in school at Howard U, getting my Masters in Speech-Language Pathology. I’m currently working part time, but I still have plenty of time on my hands. I’m mostly available Monday-Wednesday, with some exceptions depending on timing. My cat Butters gets fed 2-3 meals a day depending how hungry he is. 2 meals his urinary tract food and 1 meal Fancy Feast with extra water. On days I work I usually play with him (he likes toys with strings) after work or before in the morning.

Dasia was awesome. This was our second experience using a Rover provider. Dasia was timely, communicative when needed, sent pics at each walk, and was very caring to our pet. She accommodated a change in our travel schedule and modified the service request as needed. I will be using Dasia again and would recommend her services.

Bria was great with Luna! She was easy to communicate with, kept me updated, and took great care of her while I was away. Luna came home happy and well cared for, which is always the most important thing. I appreciate the attention and care Bria provided, and I would definitely book with her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐾⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I am flexible and I am just willing to give your dog a great time when you are away!! I work part time as a summer job so I have a lot of free time during the week so I am not busy at all and I am very flexible!! I will keep your pet company while you are away showing them love and affection and taking care of their daily needs like bathroom breaks, food, water, exercise, and many more!

About: I just started doing rover because I love animals and I also work from home so I have plenty of time to spoil your baby! I have a boxer of my own that gets along with other animals and is very energetic so we go outside around our complex all the time. I respond very fast and send pictures throughout the day! Even though I live in an apartment, there’s over a thousand sq ft for them to run around in when they’re inside. I will walk your dog for as long as you need me to and do drop in visits as well. Since I do have a pup of my own you can be assured I will give yours all the love, snuggles, and care they need! Plus I work with each individual dog according to their own needs! Just shoot me a message and we can discuss further. Im currently doing hybrid for work so I’m home most days during the week so your fur baby will get plenty of attention & outside time! I never let dogs off the leash when they’re with me & I always maintain control on walks. Always do separate feedings & I pay attention to your pet’s body language to make sure they’re always comfortable in my care. I work from home full time so I have a very flexible schedule to care for your loved fur baby & work around your schedule as well! We can do a meet & greet before hand so your pet feels more comfortable with me. Whenever I do drop ins I always make sure that your fur baby is comfortable with my presence & I watch the door as I leave so they can’t escape.

About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog walker serving the Largo area. I’ve been caring for the dogs of friends, neighbors, and family for many years, and I truly enjoy spending time with pets of all sizes and personalities. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, or loving care while you’re away, you can count on me to treat them like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure your furry friend is happy, safe, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your pup and helping provide the care and attention they deserve! I personally have a 5 year old Goldendoodle and care for other dogs on the side. I’d love to help as I understand the need for a community of fur parents. I have a very active dog and know the importance of knowing he’s in good hands. I would only expect you to have the same level of expectations as I have when I let others care for mine.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Kettering

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Kettering on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 16,914 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Kettering. 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 Kettering. 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 Kettering.

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 walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kettering. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
