“I've used Elisa to walk my dog several times over the last 6 months, and she does an amazing job. She's always prompt, and takes wonderful care of my dog. My schedule can sometimes be hectic, but Elisa is always able to take care of him. She even asked if she could bring her own dog to play with mine (of course I said yes) one day, and they had a great time together. She always feeds him and makes sure he has fresh water. I will definitely continue to use her services in the future.”
About: I am detail oriented and love to play with pups. If a schedule is provided, I will follow it as directed. I can walk, feed, and take pets out to potty. Your pet(s) will always be under my watch. Additionally there is someone home at all times in case I do need to step out. I also offer after hours/overnight potty breaks if needed, as late as 3am and as early as 7:30am. I also speak Spanish. I am available Monday to Friday and most weekends, which mostly depend on the time. I’m very flexible and can accommodate to you & your pet’s needs. I have a fenced front yard and backyard. Pups are always monitored anytime we’re outside. Also seperated when eating to ensure everyone ears their own meal. I can crate your dog if needed.
“Brianna is a great dog walker!! She is very quick to respond to messages and took the lead organizating the meet and greet. She was available on pretty short notice, which was such a relief. 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: 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.”
About: We had a Shih Tzu for 4 or 5 years her name was Nyla and she was apart of the family and we loved her I'm looking for a something to do with not working at this time, I am trying to get in shape as well and this would help I live in an apartment but it's pet friendly here with bags to clean up behind them and a dog park so they can exercise
About: When I'm not around a dog I feel like something's missing. I've had at least one dog in my life for over 35 years. Taking care and giving attention to a dog is just part of my life and always has been. I'm currently working from home part-time so I have plenty of availability. This includes weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I'm also an early riser, so I'm available early in the day if needed. I'm up every morning at 6:30. My dog, Leo and I have a morning routine. We go downstairs together, and I fill his food and water bowl. I make my coffee, and while it's brewing, we go out on our first short walk. He loves cuddling next to me whenever he gets the chance. He goes out 2 to 3 more times during the day, where I try to give him a good walk. He loves to play with toys, especially if any one at home is sitting on the floor. He also has a bedtime he has set for himself, and lets me know when it's time to go to bed for the night. I am the first choice doggy sitter for family and friends!
“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 provide dependable, personalized care to every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm experienced with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who require a gentler pace and extra attention. I'm comfortable administering basic medications, reinforcing training routines, and providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. Communication is a priority for me, so you'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages throughout your pet's stay. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, reliable hands. I currently work full time but have flexibility during the day, allowing me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet care as needed. I'm also available in the evenings, on weekends, and for overnight stays with advance notice, so I can provide reliable and consistent care that fits your pet's routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow each owner's care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication needs, and any special requests. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a clean, secure, and calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: Keith & Jess have been married for 15 years and each have over 25+ years experience owning and caring for dogs. They were the proud owners of a Beagle/Spaniel mix for 19 years, gaining experience in elder dog care in the process. Currently our travel schedules don’t allow for full time ownership but we’d love to care for your pup whenever we can! We currently both work from our home during the week, allowing for frequent walks and attention. Your pup will never be left alone for long stretches! There are no other pets in the home. The backyard is not fenced but backs up to a wooded nature preserve. The walking trails that go thru the woods make for great dog walking routes!
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my whole life and have years of experience through TrustedHousesitters. I’m gentle, patient, calm, and great with routines. Friends, neighbours, and families have relied on me to walk, feed, cuddle, medicate, and care for their pets. I work online, so I’m home all of the day and can give your pets plenty of companionship and attention. I work online from home, which means your pets will have company all of the day. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily follow specific feeding times, walks, medications, and routines. I’m available for house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walks throughout the week. Your pets will never feel lonely with me around. Your pets’ safety and comfort always come first. I carefully follow your instructions, routines, and house rules. I keep a calm, tidy environment and treat your home with full respect. I’m experienced with medication, feeding schedules, senior care, and anxious pets. I send regular updates and photos so you always know your pets are happy and relaxed. Your home and your animals are in safe, caring hands with me.
About: Every pet is different! I emphasize individualized care and consistent communication with the owner. Pictures and updates will be plentiful if requested. I am always looking to make some new animal friends! I moved to this area for graduate school and have stayed as I begin my career in the mental health field. I also work part time as a dance teacher and have a background in EMS but love to spend my free time with animals whenever I can! I was experienced in dog sitting in my home state and hope to continue that in this new location. Communicating with the owner is essential. Listening, knowing, and learning the animal is so important. I take the time to ensure I do all those things!
About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. We had Brownie as our first family dog when I was seven. I’ve learned how to treat dogs properly and gently through him. In 2019, I got Cali. The first dog I could finally call my own. Through her, I learned how to bathe, feed, play, give love, take care of a dog in general. The following year, Cali was followed by Loki who was gifted to me by my husband. He is the most fun & energetic dog I have but also more sensitive compared to the other 9 dogs we have at home. Through Loki, I learned to be more mindful with his needs and what I feed him because he has a sensitive stomach. I also learned to be comfortable in administering medications & managing complex diets. I left my dogs in my home country when I moved here in the US in 2025. In my free time, I go to animal shelters so I could pet dogs. I have also helped my friends with their dogs by taking care of them when they are in a vacation. Currently, I am working full time 40 hours a week, which gives me a lot of free time. Being a dog lover, I got so excited when I found out I could earn some extra cash for doing something that is really close to my heart. I value in-person meeting so pet parents know I prioritize a safe, comfortable transition for everyone involved. If you have more questions, please feel free to ask me 😊 I am currently working evenings from 3 to 11 PM. I also have 2 full day off every week so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pups 😊 I live in a top floor apartment in a clean, well-maintained & peaceful area. I value a clean and clutter free environment so you’ll be at peace knowing that your dog is in a safe place. There’s a dog park within the complex and there are also a lot of nearby nature parks that I personally love going for a short retreat, which your pup will also surely love!
About: Hi! I am here as dependable and caring animal lover who enjoys serving both pets and their lovely humans. I had a beloved dog of my own for years, and since then friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets with love and attention. I enjoy long walks, furry cuddles, and making pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m conscientious, communicative, and passionate about giving pet parents peace of mind and reassurance that their furry family member is in good hands! I currently work remotely and have time in my schedule to attend to furry friends! I would schedule blocks to incorporate rover clients into my daily routine. Although I do not offer in-home services, I am available to conduct drop-ins at clients’ homes, provided that the necessary access and technology are available.
“Thank you Leo, very professional, on time and great communication! My pups are not the easiest but you made me feel at ease by handling the situation! Thank you Leo”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Barcroft
Absolutely thrilled with Ozge dog walking services! She’s incredibly trustworthy, always respectful with my dog, and does an excellent job every time. She spends the time to get my dog tired and sends multiple pictures each time. Her communication is prompt and clear, which makes everything so easy. I highly recommend her to any dog parent looking for a reliable walker. Highly recommend for anyone looking in falls church to walk or watch their dog!
Lei has been absolutely wonderful with Freya these past few months! Freya is always so happy when she stops by. She is so attentive and caring with her, wiping her paws and making sure it’s not too hot for her to be outside long. She went above and beyond staying past the appointment time when Freya was stubborn and wouldn’t poop right away. Thank you so much for everything!
Max was great. Went above and beyond both days we used his services. Day One went a little awry with one of our dogs getting injured (through no fault of Max's!) And he communicated immediately and even waited with our dogs until we were able to make it home even though he didn't have to. Would highly recommend Max and would use him again in the future.
Rachel was flexible and communicative. Sirena loved her from the second she met her which means a lot to us since she’s a nervous girl. She was sure to communicate all the things Sirena had done with her as well as asked questions if anything came up. We definitely recommend her and will use her again :) thank you Rachel !

The average cost for Dog Walking in Lake Barcroft on Rover is $27.75 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 .

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.

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.
