“It's hard for us to go on vacations as we had some bad experience leaving our dog in doggie day care. This is our 1st time using Rover and we are so impressed. Melissa sent as pictures and updates for their walk and we are so at ease when we were away. Thanks Mellisa!”

About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting all my life. I also fostered a mid-size mixed terrier. I have two cats of my own. I love how all animals have amazing personalities! I can do dog walking, cat check ins with waste clean-up or over nights which ever you may need. I know how to administer meds to both cats and dogs. It is so important to have your furry loved ones pampered while you are away! I am retired so my availability is flexible. I also enjoy sending photos of your four legged loved one while you are away! I have also watched chickens, turtles, guinea pigs, snakes and iguanas. Looking forward to hearing from you! I am retired so I have a flexible schedule! I can go during the day or stay overnight at your home. Whichever you feel most comfortable with would work! When I come to your house, besides walking/feeding, I do waste cleanup as well. Of course, playing is a must! I will definitely send photos and videos so you know how your furry family member is feeling!

About: If you’re looking for someone to just drop a bowl of kibble and scroll on their phone, I’m probably not your person. But if you want someone who will treat your pet like a misunderstood genius or a retired diplomat, we’re going to get along great! I work for the MTA as a train operator in the city, but on my days off I love taking my corgi Zuko on long walks and playing in our yard. I've had dogs and cats since I was young, and have a special affinity for all animals. If you want your fur baby treated like the king or queen they know they are while you're away, look no further! I am currently off Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays so I will have the full 24 hours of those days to walk, play, entertain, and care for your pets. I have a large unfenced yard on a very quiet street off the main road. I also have a extremely friendly and energetic corgi named Zuko who will assuredly be your pets new best friend. There will be tons of playing, running, fetch and more to ensure your pet has the best experience staying at their home away from home.

About: I’ve raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, and my love for animals is a big part of who I am. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re safe, loved, and well cared for. As a pet lover, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a strong sense of responsibility to every visit. I’ll take time to learn your pet’s personality, follow their familiar routines, and give them the attention they need—whether that means a playful walk or quiet companionship. With regular photos and updates, my goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is a passion for me, and I’m excited to make it a regular part of my week. I’m available seven days a week, with visits and walks scheduled around my other commitments. Whether you need consistent weekly support or occasional help, I’ll work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine and give them the care and attention they deserve. Having raised dogs and cats my entire life, I understand how important familiar routines, patience, and careful attention are to helping pets feel safe. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, and playtime, taking time to build trust and notice any changes in your pet’s behavior or comfort. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine—keeping pet areas clean, securing doors and gates, and following your household preferences. I’ll handle keys and access information carefully and send regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet and home are in caring hands.

About: I’ve been working with animals since I was 14 years old. I started my own business because it felt more personal and enjoyable than my other animal care jobs. My care is tailored to your pets needs, reliable, and worry free. I will give ur pet the unconditional love, care, and safety that I would give my own. Along with pet care I also administer medication, transport pets to and from vet and transport pets to and from grooming. My main goal is to make sure you’re happy, comfortable and worry free with your pet in my care I am in Delray until next Wednesday if anyone needs some help feel free to reach out. I would love to keep your fur babies company 😊 I do work during the day but still house sit while you're on vacation, drop by for a quick hello and treats, or take them on a nice long walk with a toy to play with if desired. Your pet will surely miss you while you’re gone. That’s why I give them love like I would give my own so they are the most comfortable and safest they can be until you return to them

About: Hi! I’m Jess, and if my friends had to describe me, they’d probably say I’m the human version of a golden retriever friendly, energetic, loyal, and always excited to make new friends (especially the furry kind!). While I haven’t owned a dog myself, I’ve spent years helping care for dogs belonging to family, friends, and many of my personal training clients. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a personal trainer and health coach, I’m very active, dependable, and attentive to details. I’ll treat your dog like family and make sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and care while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I would be honored to be that person for your furry family member. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine right now. I currently have a flexible schedule and am looking to stay active and productive throughout the summer while doing something I genuinely enjoy. I love animals and see pet sitting and dog walking as an opportunity to help both pets and their owners. I know many people have vacations, family events, long workdays, and summer plans, and it can be stressful worrying about leaving a beloved pet behind. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care so pet parents can enjoy their time away with peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is getting plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and affection. As someone who is active, responsible, and caring, I enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I look forward to helping families this summer while building meaningful connections with both pets and their owners. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of exercise, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. Every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to build trust and make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. As a personal trainer and health coach, I lead an active lifestyle and love spending time outdoors, making me a great fit for dogs who enjoy walks and playtime. I also understand how important pets are to their families, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾💛

The average cost of Dog Walking in Lake Carmel is $20 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $32 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 of October 2026, there are 2,854 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lake Carmel. 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 Carmel. 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 , 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 Lake Carmel 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Carmel. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
