“Appreciate Nicole's care and attention for my pup Cassie on their walk. Cassie likes to take her time, stopping to sniff spots or lay down, so I booked an hour walk. Nicole made sure she got the full walk in so Cassie could enjoy her usual exercise and mental stimulation.”
“This is our first time working with Delina, we are so happy to have found her! She is the sweetest, all the humans and our big mutt Louie immediately adopted her as a treasured friend. We look forward to many future visits (we hope)!”
“Jessica and Damon were wonderful with our two dogs! They stepped in on short notice, which we truly appreciated, and took great care of them. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
About: I'm an animal lover who's grown up with multiple family members who owned dogs and have had my own German Shepherd for years since puppyhood! Well versed in caring for, walking, and enjoying company of pets. I'm a college student currently working part-time and studying for the LSAT, so I have a fairly flexible schedule that can work well for you! My approach would be to try to provide structure to the animals while following the rules and preferences of the clients. I've found my own dog is the happiest when provided efficient stimulation, so I would want to provide that for any pets I was sitting.
“Kennedi came through for my baby at last minute. She has great communication skills, super nice and I know how adventurous and playful Lotus can be so I know she's patient! She's very attentive and I appreciate her for coming through. I will book again”
“Kathryn is def up for the challenge with our dog. Lexus does not like a lot of people but Kathryn has made the cut. Good feedback on the walk. And she can work the house alarm system. 👍👍👍”
“Lilla was fantastic!! Often going above and beyond to make sure our puppy had an amazing experience with her. She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures and/or video to let us know our puppy was doing well. Highly recommend and will definitely book her again whenever we need someone to walk Molly!”
“Will be using Luisa again! What a great experience from start to finish with our first walk. Great communication as well and helped ease of first time anxiousness with a dog walker.”
“Aliyah is very dependable, and responds to my requests in a very timely matter! She has no problems with doing what you ask of her. Aliyah continues to be a great walker for my dog and he loves her!”
“Jessica has been wonderful! I needed help on short notice for my energetic Staffy/Lab mix while I worked overnight shifts, and she exceeded my expectations. She was great with my dog from the very first meet and greet, and clearly has experience handling larger, high-energy dogs. She provided a full 30 minute walk, updates with photos, notes about the visit, and even tracked potty breaks and checked her water. Knowing my dog was getting exercise and attention in the middle of my 12 hour shift made a huge difference and greatly reduced my stress. Jessica has been reliable, professional, communicative, and caring. My dog absolutely loves her, and I feel completely comfortable having her care for my pet. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog walker!”

About: I absolutely love all animals and care for them like they’re my own. I have my own dog named Tucci, so I understand the responsibility, attention, and care pets need every day. I’m responsible, dependable, active, and very flexible with schedules. I enjoy walks, playtime, feeding, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care naturally fits into my weekly routine because I care for my own dog every day. I’m already used to making time for walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention they need. I do have a part time job , i go in maybe 1-2 times a week with 5-6 hour shifts. I provide flexible, attentive pet care based on each pet’s normal routine and comfort level. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets feel safe and relaxed while keeping their usual habits consistent. I’m comfortable allowing pets on furniture and I can also co-sleep with them if that’s part of their routine. I enjoy keeping dogs active and engaged, including regular walks and trips to the dog park when appropriate. If a pet is crate-trained or needs crate time, I can easily follow that schedule as well. I’m very open to following any specific feeding, medication, or exercise schedules provided by the owner, and I adjust my routine to match what each pet is used to so they feel as comfortable as possible while in my care.
About: I provide reliable, gentle care for pets of all personalities. I take time to understand each animal’s routine and comfort level, offering calm interaction, clean spaces, and consistent feeding. Whether playful, shy, or special-needs, I make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and understood—while keeping you updated along the way. I’m currently a full-time student attending school online so I’m open and available for all your pet care needs, at any time of day! I’m fine with doing weekends, and overnight stays if necessary, just let me know! I offer calm, reliable in-home care so your pet can stay comfortable in their own space. I follow your routines closely—feeding, cleaning, playtime, and any special needs—while keeping their environment tidy and stress-free. My goal is to make your home feel just as safe and comforting for your pet as when you’re there!
“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Kettering 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 .

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.

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.
