“Zihong was a great walker and very reliable. The communication was prompt and helpful throughout, keeping me well updated. My dog was always happy to head out on walks with ZIhong and returned well taken care of. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a solid, dependable dog walker.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I remember. I enjoy being around animals and treat every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a lot of time to walk and take care of your pets. I am available more often during the week. I don't have any pets of my own at the moment, so I will be fully focused on your pet. I’m patient and attentive, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, habits, and boundaries.
“Ray was great with Jimi! Jimi is leash reactive and not friendly with other dogs, plus he is very strong, so I’m always worried when someone else walks him. But I felt extremely confident with Ray walking him. He also spent extra time with Jimi and they played in the backyard after each walk. Additionally, I appreciated how communicative Ray was with me and all the pictures that he sent while I was away. I can’t recommend Ray enough!”
“This gal rocks ! I she is kind and considerate she has saved my life . She had zero introduction with my dog who is a tyrant . And made friends with her in 10 mins and had her out walking the first day ! I typically don’t trust anyone with my little girl .. Amanda I trust 100 percent ! Thank you !”
“Kopal was punctual for the walk, and gave our dog not only some good exercise, but also a chance to smell the flowers and enjoy nature. Kopal shows tremendous affection and love for our dog, and now our dog has a new BFF.”
About: I’ve been a pet owner/lover my whole life! Happy to do whatever makes your doggie feel comfortable while you are away! I know how much pets mean to their owners and would love to offer some TLC to yours when you can’t be there. I’ve also done housesitting for many people over the years and I’ll take great care of your home as well! I can also do chores around the house while you are away, if desired. I specialize in pets that are higher maintenance or require special care (administer meds, nervous/anxious animals, older animals, etc.) I hope to get to meet your furry friend(s) very soon! I am a friendly, down to earth, clean person that will make your time away worry free!
About: Having raised my own puppy and dogsat for friends with anxious pups, I'm well versed in how to provide for a pup's full time needs. I can also provide puppy training in house manners (for example: waiting patiently to be fed, waiting at doors, simple commands). My care and attention to my own puppy, Chef, is full time and I am super excited to share that with your pup. We can go on excursions or hang around the house or play fetch at the dogpark. Whatever your pup is up for. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup for your pup(s) to play with! And if your pup doesn't want company for whatever reason, I have gates and crates to make sure they are safe and happy in their own space. Feel free to request photos/videos and check in anytime for updates.
“Nicoletta was really great from the meet and greet through to the walks for our Nayeli. She communicated the whole time and took some great photos while on the walk. I would definitely trust and use Nicoletta again in the future.”
About: Hi folks, I’m Hannah. My pets are a part of my chosen family. They each have their own quirks, preferences, attitudes, and personalities. I’d be honored to bring your furry family member into our lives! I’ve had many different pets over the last 20 years: parakeets (Lucy and Ricky), gerbils (Louis and Clark), dogs (Lilly, Iggy, Olive, Stella, Dexter, Pearl), and cats (Charlie, Baby Boy). We love to walk and hike throughout the bay area, run the beach, teach tricks, sunbathe in the yard, play with the very many (too many!) toys strewn about our house, and cuddle in front of the fire pit. I’d love to know more about your pet to ensure they are safe and happy and that I’m providing the best kind of care catered to them. Are they shy? Friendly? Aloof? Nervous? Mischievous? Do they need a little more love to make sure they are comfortable? How many daily walks is ideal for their energy level? Do they get specific meals and meds to protect their health? Do they have a history of reactivity? Favorite spot for scritches? Etc. I’m also happy to provide specific care based on their needs, senior pups and cats welcome! Thanks so much for reading 💕🐾 We live in San Mateo and I’m currently working part time in San Francisco on M/W/F mornings so I have a flexible schedule to care for your furry family. I am also open to working out a pick up and drop off schedule if that is something you’re interested in. We have a lovely fenced yard for our pups to run around and frolic in, as well as a doggy door so they can go out at their leisure. I like to take my dog on 2 walks a day (gotta check their pee-mails!) and there is a dog park within walking distance of our house should your pup prefer to run around freely. I do not crate my dog, so if that is in your routine, please let me know in advance so we can plan accordingly. Above all I believe fresh air, engagement, and enrichment creates the happiest environment for our pets. I’d love to welcome yours into our family ❤️
“Mara was amazing with my 2 Huskies - One of whom is a rescue and very slow to warm up to people. We booked her for daily walks while we were on vacation and she was prompt and attentive everyday, sending pictures and bringing treats. I will definitely use Mara again.”

About: i grew up dogs so i work best with dogs! i love getting playtime in with dogs to get all their energy out. but i also love lounging with dogs in the sun and giving them quality time. i know puppies can be a lot, but with detailed instructions, i can help watch and reinforce puppy training as i know how crucial puppy training can be. i have little experience with senior pets but am opening to learn as all pets need care. all i ask is for a typical day to day glimpse so ur fur babies have minimal disruption to their usual routine. i am familiar with cats and can help provide basic care as well why am i doing rover? i sadly live away from my family and my apartment doesnt allow dogs ): i grew up around dogs and wish i could own one right now. i'm hoping to do rover to make a lil more income, get my steps in, but most importantly get some quality pets in because i miss dogs the most i work from home so i can be flexible with my availability to care. early mornings can be tough but anytime after will be fine. if ur comfortable, i can work from ur home so ur dogs can have a buddy almost 24/7 i love to treat all pets like they're part of the family. i know some dogs can get anxious so i wanna do my best to make sure they're getting the best care while their parents are away. i don't do well with kids but i do great with pets! i am transparent with my communication so i please ask that you are just as transparent with me to ensure your pets can get the best care. unfortunately, my apartment does not allow any pets, but i don't want to let that stop me from a daily dose of animals.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals—from energetic puppies who need structure and training to senior pets who need gentle care and extra attention. I’m skilled in reading animal body language, administering basic medications, and maintaining calm, comforting environments. My priority is always safety, trust, and keeping pets happy and healthy while their owners are away. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily life. I plan my schedule around the pets I look after, making sure each one gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening feedings, I build my day around their routines. On a weekly basis, I check in with clients to confirm schedules, update them with photos and notes, and make sure each pet’s needs are being met. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every single day. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I would my own. I make sure pets stick to their normal routines to minimize stress, keep them active and engaged, and send regular photo and text updates so owners feel connected and confident that their furry family members are in good hands.
“Karina was courteous and was amazing with Jager. Her confidence with dogs shows how much experience she has with them. She also sends updates if Jager already pooped, peed and if they’re heading back. Jager came home tired and happy! Thanks Karina!”
“Andy was an awesome dog walker. He was prompt and made sure my dog got her full hour. You can tell he is a dog person who cares and understands dogs. Iggy loved walking with Andy and Milo.”
About: Compassionate caretaker with 8 years of experience caring for my own dog and others. As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve always been entrusted to watch over the dogs of my friends, families, and neighbors. Now that I work fully remote, I am able to care for dogs on weekdays as well. I promise to care for your pup as they were my own. Since I work from home full time, I am able to play and watch over your dog throughout the entire day. i am able to take your dog out to use the bathroom whenever needed. Of course, I am happy to walk your pup as much as needed, preferably in the mornings. Living in a dog friendly building, your dog is welcomed and safe. There are currently no pets that live in my apartment, and I would only watch one dog at a time. Currently, I live in a spacious apartment with 4 roomates, so multiple eyes would be on your pup throughout the day. I also have a fenced private balcony so your pup could get some sun.
“Yvette tried hard to take my dog who wasn’t moving at first because of the unfamiliar situation and managed to get him pee and poop!!! I had a bad cold and she was so helpful.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Laurel
Traci came highly recommended, and those recommendations did not let me down! She was quick to respond, kind, reliable, and took wonderful care of Bruno. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Traci to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their dog!
Emily is wonderful! Was able to feed finicky Elsie, played plenty of ball, and was extraordinarily flexible with my scheduling and emergency that came up! Emily also kindly accommodated for my mobility issues. Grateful to have met Emily and would love to book her again
This review is for drop-in visits which I booked with Emma for 10 days. I cannot recommend Emma enough! She truly went above and beyond taking care of Koda while we were away on our trip. I was extremely worried about Koda and probably sent Emma paragraphs and paragraphs of instructions and messages, but she was so patient, understanding, and reassuring the entire time. She followed all of my instructions carefully and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Koda was having a lot of anxiety with us being gone, and Emma did so much more than I ever expected from a dog walker. She helped administer his anxiety medication, spent extra time with him, cuddled with him, and even brought Koda to her own home to help him feel more comfortable and ease his anxiety. You can genuinely tell how much she cares about the dogs she takes care of. Knowing that Koda had someone who was not only looking after him but truly caring for him made such a huge difference for us. Emma is incredibly kind, dependable, compassionate, and amazing with Koda. We are so grateful for everything she did for him while we were away. I cannot recommend Emma enough. She is absolutely wonderful, and I would trust her with Koda anytime!
Kathleen walked our dog Benji, and it was such a great experience from start to finish. She gave him so much genuine attention and care throughout — you can really tell she loves animals. Kathleen is very communicative and sent us lots of photos so we always knew Benji was having fun. Benji always came back to us as the happiest dog, clearly worn out from a great time with her. We felt at ease knowing he was in her hands, and we'd recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to take care of their pet.
Sarahi was absolutely wonderful with our furry baby, King! I really appreciated how thoughtful and attentive she was. She even made little suggestions to help keep King comfortable, like opening the blinds so he could look out the window—something I had actually thought about doing but completely slipped my mind! I also really appreciated how well she communicated with me throughout her time with King. Her updates gave me peace of mind and made me feel so much more at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Sarahi and will absolutely book with her again!
Nicole is fantastic! She is truly a dog whisperer. Enzo took to her right away and looked forward to his walks with Nicole each day during our trip. She also truly help with his behavior training during our trip. I am already reviewing our future needs and locking in those dates. Thank you Nicole!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Laurel is $28 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $41 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 13,031 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Laurel. 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 Laurel. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Laurel 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 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 Laurel. On Rover:
- 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
