“Brandi is very reliable, caring towards my dog and accommodating. She also helped us to better understand the Rover app and how to utilize all its features. I would highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I recently moved to Richmond and am excited to meet some new furry friends! I grew up with a Cockapoo who was a huge part of my life and recently passed away from old age. He had diabetes, so I got firsthand experience caring for a dog who truly depended on his humans. I love spending time with dogs, playing with them, and even teaching them tricks—I taught my dog how to roll over! I’ll treat your dog with the same care, attention, and love I would want for my own. I currently work in Ashland 8-5, M-F. Depending on where it’s at, I can be there during lunch break quick, and also in the evenings after work! Weekends are usually pretty wide open for me. I am flexible! I have a 1bd room apartment so it is easy to keep an eye on the pup and give them loving while you are gone! As well as open patches off grass, walking trails, and parks nearby.
“This was the first time I have ever used this app/service and Taylor was absolutely amazing and quick to respond (which was amazing as my request was same day). She was so patient and gentle with my dog as he can be very wary/scared of strangers, but she did a great job of giving him time to warm up to her! I could tell he was absolutely ready for a nap after the walk.”
“Very flexible in scheduling visits, a very nice and friendly personality, took detailed notes on his visits, and was very loving and friendly to my dog. He is the first person I go to if I need someone to check in on my dog.”
“We have used Collette multiple times now and she has been a terrific help, always responds on time and is reasonably priced which is much appreciated. I would definitely recommend:)”
About: Hello! I've been working with dogs professionally for 3 years. I also work at Ruff Canine Club in Scott's Addition as a "rufferee"! I'm very interested in dog behavior so I've learned a lot over the years about handling all sizes, levels of reactivity and unique quirks. Can't forget about CATS! I love them too :) I am comfortable administering medication, vet visits, walks, yard play, managing multi pet households, puppies and seniors. I am currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule. I have a car so I can easy transport to and from homes. Unfortunately, with where I am living, I am unable to board pets at my residence. I provide in home sitting through my personal business and do not offer it through Rover (only walks and drop ins).
About: I love animals, and have been a pet lover/ owner for the past 7 years! I’m comfortable around dogs and cats, and am dedicated to learning how to best care for your pets. When I come to care for your dogs, I am fully present with your animals as they deserve all the love and attention; so no phones while sitting or walking them unless to snap a quick photo to send to you! I am currently available during mornings and afternoons for drop ins, walks, house sittings when needed! I am flexible to what fits the best for your schedule and your pet(s). I’m currently available full time and flexible to drop in when it’s best for your pets! I’m most available during the mornings and afternoons any day of the week. I will always follow your guidelines, communicate to provide general updates with photos and brief summary of the visit. Will always do my best to protect and care for them as if they are my own.
About: Took a break from Rover for a few years but am now back and excited to help care for your pets! I have grown up with dogs my whole life and love caring for them. I had an 18 year old Dachshund and currently have a 13 year old lab mix, so I am used to caring for adult-senior dogs and am knowledgeable on giving medications. I work from home right now so I have flexibility. I will treat your dog as if it’s my own, lots of love, treats, and belly rubs! I can’t wait to meet you and your dog! Please reach out if you have any questions. I currently work from home during the week so I am flexible on the time and length of drop in visits and mid day walks! I can easily adapt to the care that your fur baby is used to receiving from you! I know all dogs have their own special set of instructions and will follow them to the letter.
“Mandy was phenomenal and I know that Mickey enjoyed every minute of his time with her to the fullest extent of his heart!! She exhibits so much care and I'll definitely be continuing with her services, much to Mickey's delight!”
About: All my life, I have helped animals in trouble or strays, turning them into truly loved and cared for pets. I spent most of my life living on a farm, volunteered for two years at an animal shelter which I still support financially My husband and I take care of the furry friends, He work from home and I work in the mornings, weekends we are in home but some we travel so we prefer to you book in 2-3 days in advance I have a spacious two-bedroom apartment with a balcony covered in artificial grass. Within my complex, there’s a pet play area and plenty of space for walks by the lake—always on a leash. There’s also a flat wooded area with natural grass for pets to enjoy
“Shannon was huge help walking our dog Nora after my foot surgery. She was responsible, communicative, and took some cute pictures of Nora during their walks! We will definitely book again.”
“Amy to the rescue! Our normal dog walker was suddenly hospitalized and we were able to book Amy on short notice (less than 24 hours). We are so glad we did! She came over to meet our pup and had a few questions for us. She was very responsive and sent a little recap of the walk, the walk details, and amazing pictures. Would definitely recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m Casey — a stay-at-home mom who would love to spend a little more of my free time loving on some adorable pups! 🐶 I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits, whether you’re looking for someone on a regular, consistent schedule or just need an occasional helping hand. My schedule has some flexibility, so I’m happy to work with your routine and your pup’s needs. I’ve always loved dogs and know how much peace of mind comes from having someone you can trust to care for your pets when you’re not home. I’ll treat your dog with the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want someone to give my own pets. Whether your pup needs a nice walk, a potty break, some playtime, fresh food and water, or simply a little company and extra love while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I’ll also keep you updated after each visit so you know how everything went. I’m not looking to fill my schedule with dozens of bookings — I’d much rather build relationships with a few families and become someone you feel comfortable calling whenever you need a little extra help. I’d love to meet you and your pup! ❤️ As a stay at home mom, I have the flexibility to live and care for your dogs when needed. I’m happy to set up a regular care schedule or be available while you are traveling. I provide drop-in visits and dog walking exclusively in the client’s home, allowing pets to stay in the familiar environment where they feel safest and most comfortable. I believe keeping their normal routine helps reduce stress while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and attentive to your pet’s individual needs, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or simply some extra love and companionship.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Laurel
Lexi did an amazing job walking my greyhound and spending the rest of the time with him in the house! He was so happy and looked like he felt safe in all the pictures she sent us, and she got some of our cat too :) We appreciate the care she took with Kuru and we would absolutely book her again. This was our first experience on Rover and I’m glad it worked out so well.
Steven has helped us a few times now. He is always extremely responsive, responsible and the dogs love him! (The cats don't talk as much but I'm pretty sure they think he's fine.) We are so grateful to have Steven to help us. He took our oldest dog out for a walk by herself and then came back and got the other, more rambunctious ones!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Laurel on Rover is $17.76 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,421 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 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 Laurel.
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 Laurel. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
