About: I’ve taken care of dogs like Boston terrier, golden retriever and cockapoo for years. Neighbors, families and friends, they all are comfortable with me for petting their loved ones. I have experienced with staying with dogs overnight, playing, walking dogs and blushing and cleaning them. I’m pretty easy to get along with any kind of dogs. I’m currently working a part time job, so I have plenty of time for taking care of the pups! I would be available after 6pm on weekdays and full day on Sunday. I’m pretty good and easy to get a long with any kind of dogs with warm heart. I can create and make your loved ones feel safe and comfortable with me.

Morgan was great! She was on time, followed the instructions I left for my dog’s care, and was considerate with key pickup and drop off. She also left a good description of the walk so that I felt clued in while I was out of the house and sent some nice pictures.

I was impressed with Daniel right from the start! He is a very humble, respectful, responsible, kind young man who loves animals. My dog Sophie immediately took to him and she would have great walks with him. I asked a lot from Daniel when I went on holiday…and he delivered! He came to my home for 10 days to not only walk my dog but also feed her…give her medicine, and as a bonus, he played with her. Socializing w Sophie went a long way because she was alone most of the time. He would always be on time and, when another dog walker canceled, he quickly covered that shift. No questions or higher charge. He sent a lot of photos too. Since I’ve been back from my holiday, I’ve been in poor health. I texted Daniel and he is now my dog walker on days when I’m unable to take Sophie out myself. Again, punctual & always thinking about what’s best for my dog…. For example, He remembers to dry Sophie’s paws when they arrive from a walk in the snow or rain. I highly recommend Daniel as your dog walker or sitter.

About: I had a small maltese-poodle mix for over 16 years who I personally trained, boarded dogs of a family friend, and walked rescue greyhounds and other rescues. I currently have pretty wide open availability with prior notice. I am allergic to cats so unfortunately cannot board cats, but am able to do drops-ins. I currently have a wide range of availability with prior notice while working a PRN job in healthcare with the elderly. Currently available for weekdays and weekends. I will follow any instructions given to a T while striving to maintain the routine your pet is accustomed to, while giving them plenty of scratches and belly rubs and cuddles :) I understand some rescues prefer less physical touch due to trust and comfort issues, and I will proceed with whatever level of touch your pet chooses to engage with me.

Lianna has been great so far with Tucker! First and foremost, she really impressed me with our meet and greet. Asking such thoughtful questions, she showed how dedicated she was to providing the absolute best care to Tucker! With every walk since, Lianna has been diligent about updating me and even going as far as working on some training with Tuck. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind care provider for their fur babies!

Brianna was immediately comfortable with my 150lb dog, which means she is comfortable with any dog! She is a great dog walker and I will be using her regularly!

About: Dogs have been a part of my heart since I was six years old. I cared for my own sweet dog for over 10 years until he passed away last year. That experience taught me what it really means to love and care for a dog like family. Now, I’m here to give other pups that same love, whether it’s through gentle walks, drop-in visits, overnight care in your home, or cozy boarding in mine. I’m patient, reliable, and truly passionate about making every dog feel safe, happy, and at home. I’m currently a college student home for the summer, so I have lots of free time to dedicate to your pup! I’m flexible on weekdays and weekends and happy to adjust based on your needs. At my home, your dog will enjoy a fenced yard, lots of playtime, and a cozy, dog-loving environment. I live near a beautiful trail that’s perfect for walks, and your pup will get plenty of attention and care. I also offer drop-in visits and overnight stays in your home, where I always treat your space and your pets with the same love and respect as I would my own. Whether it’s maintaining routines, giving potty breaks, or sharing cuddles, I’m here to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved wherever they are.

About: Basset Hounds are natural characters and totally unforgettable––their droll eyes, wing-like ears, spotted fur and droopy, well––everything! They seem to possess this natural intelligence and a well of wisdom like Sherlock Holmes. Well, I grew up with a Basset Hound named Sadie and she was a major character in my life. I can’t think back on my childhood without remembering our wonderful memories, even if it’s in a subconscious, spiritual kind of way. I think growing up with her as a member of my family with such a unique personality, I’ve always been drawn to oddball pups. Eventually I became a special education teacher who has a hyperactive rescue dog with special needs and an indifferent, fat cat. Just as I care for human children, I extend the same level of care and dedication to our beloved canine (and feline) babies for friends, family, and total strangers from the Internet. I’ve cared for animals since I was four years old, and I’ll always have them in my life. In the past, I’ve volunteered at a local animal shelter and have experience training dogs. Although this line of work requires training and understanding of how to deal with different personalities, physical disabilities, and backgrounds––there’s also this element which can’t be taught or faked. I’m just a steady, easy-going, respectful, and kind individual. I don’t need to try to be patient because I’m usually very open-minded and attuned to the fact that we’re all unique and different but we’re also beautiful and awesome in our own way. I know the world isn’t always a friendly place, but being around lovely kids and happy dogs gives me hope and recharges my batteries. Some people find children and animals annoying or a needy, but I think it’s the complete opposite. Their energy, innocence, and unconditional ability to love and be accepting are lessons adults can learn and employ in their daily actions. I see them as spongy mirrors––they’ll give back what they absorb. If children and dogs are around tons of love, laughter, and a sense of security, they will give back so much compassion and loyalty. Cats, well, they’re a whole other story. My schedule is adaptable but not totally flexible since I’m a special education teacher during the day, but I have weekends off, all school breaks, and evenings. I update my availability often, but I’m more than happy to help you last minute or even if it’s for a walk because of an emergency. If my schedule allows, you can count on me. I do teach summer school, so my mornings are usually busy but I’m free afternoons and evenings, and around for Labor Day weekend. Once the school year starts in the fall, my availability will shift slightly. My other passion is spending time in the outdoors, from walking to biking to hiking to swimming. I try to stay active and your pup is sure to get a lot of fresh air time.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lake Barcroft

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Lake Barcroft 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 .

As of August 2026, there are 15,960 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lake Barcroft. 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 Lake Barcroft. 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 Lake Barcroft.

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 Lake Barcroft. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
