Jess was lovely with my dog. I have a German Shepherd and I’m always a bit worried with strangers. Jess came to my house to meet my dog beforehand to make sure they were a good fit which made me feel so much more at ease. Jess even sent me pictures of their walks! She was very accommodating with my instructions and I’m so grateful for her service.

Melissa is extremely good with all animals and I would highly recommend her! Years ago when one of my german shepherds had a behavior issue we asked Melissa to work with us and the trainer to help correct the problem. Melissa understood what the trainer was doing and helped us to learn how to work with our dog. She has also fed, walked, and administered meds to our dogs while we were on vacation. Melissa is very reliable, knowledgeable about animals and extremely good with them. I trust her with all my animals care!

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 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: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and have worked in an animal hospital, where I gained hands-on experience safely handling pets, walking dogs, assisting with their care, and working with animals of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I've also cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. Whether your pet needs feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks, playtime, or simply some extra love and attention, I'm happy to help. I'm dependable, patient, and detail-oriented, and I understand how important it is to follow your pet's routine exactly as instructed. I'll provide photo and text updates during every visit so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, allowing me to provide dependable and consistent visits. Whether your pet needs a morning check-in, a midday visit, or evening care, I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule. I understand how important routine is for pets, and I’m committed to providing reliable care and giving each visit the time and attention your pet deserves. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big decision. During every visit, I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, make sure they have fresh food and water, provide walks or playtime as needed, clean litter boxes or pick up after your dog, and spend quality time with them so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also send photo and text updates after each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every home with respect and every pet with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies who need consistent training and playtime, to senior dogs who require gentle care, medication, and patience. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable—whether it’s a long walk, structured routines, or just extra cuddles. You can count on me to treat your pet like family while keeping communication open and consistent. Being in college means I’m away from my own dog, who I cared for every day. Pet sitting helps fill that gap—I get to give other pets the same love, attention, and consistency I gave my own. I plan my days around classes so I always have plenty of time for walks, play, and cuddles. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do on the side—it’s something I genuinely miss and enjoy, which makes every visit special. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it my priority to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Whether that means regular walks, feeding on schedule, playtime, or administering medications, I follow your instructions closely so your pet feels safe and cared for. I’ve always been a dependable and trustworthy person—throughout high school I was an honor roll student and someone people could rely on. Now in college, I bring that same reliability and dedication to pet care, treating every pet like they’re my own.

About: I've been surrounded by pets my whole life. Growing up, I cared for many cats and dogs. I don’t have any animals at the moment. However, I did care for my cat, Susan, and Siberian Husky, Luke, for 15+ years before they both crossed the rainbow bridge in 2019. I know the tender, loving care that’s required to take in an animal and I’m sensitive to the fact that these kittens & pups are your babies! Each dog/cat/pet has a different personality and set of needs based on their breed or lifestyle and I’m prepared to take on any challenge. I’ve had prior experience home/dog/cat sitting and my schedule is pretty flexible. My phone is on hand at all times and I’m more than willing to send you pics throughout our time together! Currently, I have a flexible schedule and am looking to care for cats and pups to fill my days with more furry friends. 🐱 🐶 When I had pets at home, I would care for them by taking them on walks and playing their favorite games. I installed an electric fence for my dog so he could run around and enjoy the outdoors when I couldn’t walk him.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lake Carmel

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Lake Carmel 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 .

As of July 2026, there are 2,979 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 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 Carmel.

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 Carmel. On Rover:

  • 91% 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.
