“We have been working with Riley for quite a while now, and she continues to consistently deliver the best care for our pupper. She is an excellent communicator, great with our dog, and is always accommodating/flexible. We wouldn’t trust our pup with anyone else more! ☺️”
“Thanks Tara for helping me out at the last minute. Dogs were fed and walked plus a little cuddle time. Tara was not intimidated by Jack our hunting dog. He can be a handful but Tara approached him with great confidence. Everything was great.”
“If you want the best dog walker, don't look any further. Dan is by far the best dog walker. He is kind to Bella, provides the best care, and was willing to add me to his schedule during the holiday season when I got sick.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have taken care of tons of family/friends pets as well! I would love to help out with yours too! I only work part time so I have plenty of availability and time for drop ins, feedings, and long walks. I have a very flexible schedule! I have an eight year old Border Collie who loves going to the park and chasing her frisbee. She’s very active and that’s a huge part of our every day routine.
“Jennifer has been my sitter for over a year now. Recently I added a black lab for her to watch as well. Thought the visit she was extremely communicative with both pets as to their needs and how they were doing.”
“Krista is the type of human you just instantly trust with your animals. She is warm, friendly, and showed strong responsibility and organization with our booking requests. We’re excited to have her as our weekly walker! :)”
“Thank you,Cole, for being so flexible with the dogs walks in this nasty heat. Greyhounds are thin skinned and have virtually zero body fat so they overheat easily and don’t even want to venture outside when it’s this hot. The dogs love you and all I have to do is say your name and they get crazy excited. Have a great weekend!”
“Mackenzie was great! My two pups really seemed to like her despite my one being very picky about who he trusts. Communication was great and my pups seemed to be well taken care of while we were away. Thanks so much!”
About: I’ve grown up around cats, dogs, and other animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I absolutely love spending time with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I also volunteer at the Humane Society, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for animals and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needing extra patience, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and reliable care. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat them like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to make sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I'm a student here at CU Boulder, and staying in town over the summer! I have a wealth of time everyday that I'm able to dedicate to taking care of your pets and taking your dogs on adventures! I only work part-time on Saturdays so my weekdays are fully free! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they have plenty of love, attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, meals on schedule, and of course lots of affection and companionship. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’m happy to adjust to their routine and comfort level. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and always keep things clean, safe, and tidy while providing dependable care and regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“I highly recommend Amy for any pet care needs that you may have. She was incredibly communicative and on top of everything. She seems very trustworthy and reliable. I will definitely be using her again to help care for my dog.”
“Brittany was amazing. She picked up our last minute holiday travel and it couldn’t have been better. Walley was excited everytime she came (he often hides for dog walkers) but not for Brittany! Great updates and many pictures.”
“Dan was really fantastic. Very accommodating and clearly loves dogs. Carter had so much fun with him going to the dog park and really getting extra care. Dan is fabulous, an excellent caregiver for your dog.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Lafayette on Rover is $22.2 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 13,902 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lafayette. 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 Lafayette. 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 Lafayette.

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 Lafayette. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
