Adrianna was very punctual and kind. She followed all instructions in detail and got along very well with Bruno, which is worth mentioning since they had never met before. It was a great experience overall. I highly recommend Adrianna.

Isabella was great! She came over in the afternoon to take my energetic puppy out for a walk. She followed instructions well and my pup loved having her come.

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, and smaller breeds. I’m comfortable with both energetic dogs and those who prefer a slower, more relaxed pace. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes them feel safe and happy. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for turtles and am happy to look after other small pets, including fish, birds, rabbits, and guinea pigs during drop-in visits. I understand that each pet has unique routines, and I’ll carefully follow your instructions to ensure they receive the same loving care they’re used to at home. As a former elementary school teacher, I’m dependable, patient, observant, and detail-oriented. I’ll treat your pets with kindness and respect, communicate regularly, and send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I enjoy building consistent routines with pets and can often accommodate weekday, weekend, and even last-minute requests. My goal is to provide dependable care so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to follow your instructions carefully and provide the same loving care they’re used to receiving. During each visit or walk, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection based on their individual personality and needs. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or appetite and will communicate with you right away if I notice anything concerning. I’ll also send updates and photos after each visit so you can feel connected and have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you return.

About: An FFA (Future Farmers of America) member who helped with our doggy daycare program for a year ranging from medium to small dogs. I also regularly volunteer at Humane Society caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, bunnies etc. I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats of all ages! As a full-time college student, I make sure to be able to focus my time on caring for your furbabies! Please contact me so we can schedule around my classes! I highly recommend a meet and greet so the pet(s) gets used to me and I get an idea of their personality. I will also do a quick briefing on any health problems I should know before hand, certain procedures that are common place for your pet to ensure they're comfortable with me and make sure we are on the same page for care.

About: Hi! My name is Mariana. I’m a college student, and I’ve always loved dogs. Although I didn’t grow up with one, that only made me appreciate them even more. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities through pet sitting and drop-in visits. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic care, going on walks, providing playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, understanding that they may require extra patience, slower-paced walks, medication reminders, or additional attention to their comfort and routines. In addition, I have experience caring for brachycephalic breeds, such as French Bulldogs, and understand the extra precautions they may need, especially in hot weather and during exercise. My goal is to provide every pet with loving, reliable, and attentive care while giving owners peace of mind. I’m currently taking summer classes and they’re both online so I have a very flexible schedule for any pet care over the summer. I care for pets in my clients home by staying attentive and professional while also providing a level of care and affection. I also have respect for my clients home and their belongings.

Camron has been great working with the slow introduction to walks and hopefully future sitting with my particularly shy and fearful dog. His breed needs a lot of time to warm up to strangers and new caretakers/sitters when someone he knows isn’t present and she’s been very understanding and patient learning that he will not be okay going on walks with her alone without me going too for an initial period of time but my Auguste is starting to warm up to her after just a few visits! I think soon he’ll be excited to see her when she comes to walk him!

About: I have owned 2 dogs of my own, as well as sitting for many friends and family. My very first job at 10 years old was requested by my neighbors to watch their dogs while they were away. I have experience with all ages, including senior dogs, as my own both required a lot of hands on care in their golden year, including bi-weekly fluids, medications and special diets. I work part-time, sometimes in the morning to late-afternoon or late-afternoon to evening, usually 4 days a week. This schedule is not the same every week but I usually know 2 weeks ahead of time. There is someone home everyday after 5pm and all day Friday-Sunday as well. I have a townhouse with a fenced in yard. No ability to crate at the moment but plenty of space to crate if one can be provided. There are currently no other animals in my house, as my Biscuit cross the rainbow bridge last year. Both people in the home have owned pets, and have experience with care. Someone is home most of the time, minimal hours alone if any. Weekends will have someone home all day. House has step that can easily be blocked off by a gate if needed.

When we're out of town for a short weekend, we usually have morning and night coverage for our baby. Wires got crossed and he didn't get the care we're used to. Enter Christine. Her and her husband went above and beyond. They cleaned an accident that happened after our usual walker didn't walk the dog accordingly because of the rain. Our poor boy, who never has house accidents, pooped inside. Again, Christine made sure our house was cleaned and even checked to make sure there were no further accidents. She communicated regularly and just gave us such ease while we were gone for the weekend. I can't say enough good things. We'll be booking with them again.

Daria has been great! She came over to meet with our dog (who has stranger danger) before their first walk so she was comfortable the first time. We get adorable photos while on their walk and to ensure she is home safely. My husband and I know we can count on Daria on some of our longer work days and we are so grateful she takes such good care of our fur baby ❤️

About: I’ve been pet sitting over 40 years. With over 19 years experience in the Vet tech field, I began pet sitting for extra income. From cats, birds, rabbits, turtles and numerous dog breeds. I absolutely love pet sitting, fostering relationships and meeting new pups and ppl. I’m relocating to the area and expanding my pet clientele. I’m on your schedule but more importantly I make your pets schedule the utmost priority. I have two beautiful dogs, one senior and the other quite rambunctious. We enjoy long walks, cuddles, bones and barking. Also sunbathing in our grassy fenced in yard on sunny Florida days.

About: I grow up with pets, almost all my life, and I did the same with my kids, have pets since the were young. So now they are grown and gone, so I would like to do something I enjoy. I’m not working at the moment and I would like to work from home and this opportunity it’s just perfect for me being at home and spend time with animals. When I had my last dog, I take her out every hour to make sure she can use the bathroom. I’m moving this month to a house with 2 acres aren’t fence yet, so it’s plenty of space.

About: Many years of experience in caring for our fur babies, no matter what species caring comes natural for me. It would be my pleasure, to do my part in a time of need. :) I currently work from home so that means more TLC for your pet. Work starts at 8 and ends at 4:30pm full time. Mon- Fri but I’m pretty flexible to cater to any needs that may arise. Since I live in an apartment there is a fenced in dog park onsite as well as other grassy areas to play. I normally walk pets 3x a day but if your dog needs more walks then simply request it and I’ll be happy to fulfill your needs. :)

Soraya was fantastic with Odin today. He’s a blind dog with special needs, and she handled him with patience, confidence, and the right energy from the moment she arrived. She was punctual, attentive, and brought a calm but upbeat demeanor that made a real difference. It’s clear she understands how to care for dogs that require a little extra awareness. Odin was comfortable with her, and that says everything. Would absolutely book again.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lake Fern

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Lake Fern on Rover is $17.76 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 6,898 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lake Fern. 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 Fern. 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 Fern.

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 Fern. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
