About: Now that I am retired I would love to spend my time helping care for your pets. Whether it is a 2 mile walk or a drop in to throw a ball, my calm nature will help put your mind at ease that your pet is in good hands. I am happy to care for any other animals that you may have as I have owned rabbits, roosters, guinea pigs, cats and dogs. I am retired so my schedule is very flexible and I could be available some Saturdays and Sundays. I am an early riser so am happy to visit your pet as the sun comes up. Though I am not able to have your pet at my home, I am happy to come to your home and care for your pet in their own environment. I am a believer that animals should be happy and having fun.
“I’m a veterinary nurse and very picky when it comes to care for my senior boy. Dan is calm and gentle, but also will read if Elliot wants to be playful and accommodate that. He was respectful of my space and privacy and my special requests about treats (sensitive tummy!). Elliot PULLLLLS on leash and Daniel was more than capable of keeping him secure. Also, my dog had fun with this guy. Highly recommend.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is not only my reliability, but also my lifelong experience with dogs. I grew up with a Labrador who showed me the joy of unconditional love, and I recently had to say goodbye to my Lab/Whippet mix after 12 wonderful years together. She was truly family, and I now get to share that deep love with my two young kids (ages 5 and 7), who absolutely adore dogs and treat every pup like their own. Whether it’s long walks, cozy snuggles, or just keeping up with your dog’s daily routine, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and part of our pack. Because I work full time during the week, I reserve dog care for weekends only—this way I can dedicate my attention and energy to your pup. My weekends are open for long walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles, and my kids and I love having the extra time to focus on making each dog feel happy and cared for. By keeping my schedule this way, I can promise that your furry family member won’t just “fit into” my day—they’ll become a part of my family for the day(s). When caring for dogs, I focus on keeping them active, loved, and comfortable. My two young kids (ages 4 and 6) have endless energy and love to play, so visiting pups get plenty of attention and interaction. I live in a quiet town with lots of sidewalks and nearby neighborhoods, which makes for safe and enjoyable walks. While I don’t have a fenced-in backyard, I do have plenty of grassy space for outdoor time, and I’m happy to crate dogs if that’s part of their routine or helps them feel secure. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or downtime, I’ll make sure your pup feels right at home.
“Michelle has walked our pup Annie a number of times this summer, whenever I am traveling for work. Annie is super timid at first and Michelle was very patient and accommodating with her - literally walking her around the yard until she was ready to venture further.”
About: I’ve taken care of my dog Bean (named after bean from the tv show Even Stevens because of my last name!) for almost 10 years. She has chronic medical issues that require daily medication. She’s also been dog reactive her whole life which has given me an entire new way of thinking when we’re on walks. If you’re concerned about your dog’s reactivity or size, don’t be! I’ve experienced it for 9 years and am able to accommodate to whatever they need. I currently work full-time from home, but have very good flexibility with my schedule. Meaning I can pretty much accommodate any schedule you might need. I’d treat your pets just like one of my own. My dog isn’t a dog, she’s like a child to me. She actually gets shredded deli meat with her meals or else she won’t eat it! They’d be spoiled just like my own.
“Nikki was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond caring for my dog Enzo—even bringing him homemade treats. He usually takes a long time to warm up to new sitters, but he bonded with Nikki right away. She's always on time and was great at communicating throughout, including providing great photos from each visit. I highly recommend booking her!”
About: If you’re looking for someone who’s a reliable, caring, and loving pet sitter, then I’m your girl! I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter for 7 years. On top of that, I have five years of experience working at a dog daycare, so plenty of hands on experience with multiple dogs. I do not specialize in training but I’m open to doing a meet and greet and seeing if it’s the right fit. I have flexibility Thursday evenings between 6pm-11pm to Sunday afternoons between 8am- 1pm so I can do drop ins or dog walking visits between those times if needed. When I’m pet sitting at my client’s house I will normally take their dogs for walks 3 times a day and I will feed them breakfast, lunch if needed, and dinner and make sure they have plenty of water.
About: Animals make me so happy. I will fall in love with your fur baby and care for them like they were my own. My educational background is a BS in Social Work and (almost) an MS in Psychology. I recently left my full time office job and have free time before I start my next chapter in the summer of 2027. I have mostly an open schedule right now, until May of 2027. I am free during the morning, afternoon, and evening. I can do weekend help too. I prefer caring for your pets in your home. I have a blended household (myself, grandmother, and my husband) with 3 cats who would not appreciate doggy playdates. I also believe they will be more comfortable in their own familiar space.
“Nicole is fantastic with Reed! We are very lucky to have found her. Love the pics and updates on his walks. I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone searching for a caring and trustworthy person to care for your fur baby! Tiffany-”

About: I have 3 german shepherds and a 6 month old pitbull at home! I can say I have had my fair share of taking care of pups, young and old!

(I will have college classes soon to update) With this, I can do any time from 7am-9pm!! When working with others pets, I always follow what they do!

About: I have cared for animals my whole life, from cats and dogs to reptiles. I've had them all. I currently look after a 17-year-old senior cat and a 13-year-old senior pit bull. I enjoy the outdoors, and making animals happy always brightens my day! Depends on the needs. If it’s walks, as many as needed. I love walking. Feedings anytime, as many as needed. Overnight stays, obviously only one a day. I care for my pets how anyone should—lots of love, well-fed, with toys, entertainment, and cuddles. My care will depend on the animal's comfortability and needs.
“Ann Marie is the absolute best. She’s on time, completely reliable, and wonderful with our nervous Bernese Mountain Dog. She handles a big dog who pulls with ease and sticks to his routines. She sends updates and photos every walk, and has even worked on training with him above and beyond what we asked. HIGHLY recommend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Kingston is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $8 and $17 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 Kingston. 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 Kingston 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 Kingston. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% 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 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.
