“Oluwaseun is such a wonderful dog walker! I will definitely use her again! She went far and above the walking responsibilities. She communicated before arrival and completion, sending cool photos of what my dog Ralph experienced on his walk.💗💗 She was attentive to all the details of what my dog needed. I felt so at ease having her walk my senior dog.”

About: By weekday, I’m a music educator orchestrating classrooms full of energy. 24/7, I’m a dedicated dad used to keeping schedules tight, environments safe, and everyone happy. Recently, I channeled that same focus into a major personal milestone: I naturally lost 100 pounds on a fitness journey that completely transformed my life! Now, I have more energy than I know what to do with—and I want to share that vitality with your pup. If you are looking to get your dog active, healthy, and tired out by the time you get home, I am officially your guy. Seriously, if your dog has the stamina, let's run a 5k in our neighborhood backyard! 🐾🏃‍♂️ I'm a teacher and I'm currently available to provide pet care services full time until the school year starts again. I have flexible availability throughout this summer. I would follow the routine and requests that have been made from the owner. I would ensure pets are on their regular feeding schedule and will provide plenty of play and care. Every pet has unique needs and a schedule, and I will do my best to follow that routine.

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and have cared for friends’ pets for years, including dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, mellow seniors, and everything in between. I understand every pet has different needs and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I’m also happy to look after cats, small animals, and other pets, giving them the same attention and affection I’d give my own. I am a college student and have a set class schedule Monday–Thursday but I still have plenty of time for pet care during the day, evenings, and weekends. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely so they stay safe and comfortable. I’ll send regular photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of my husband’s family’s 3 cats for over five years now. They have made me fall in love them. We finally took the plunge in two years ago and adopted our own fur baby, a little tuxedo cat named Winnie! I also volunteer at the local animal shelter, providing love comfort and help to animals looking for their new forever homes. I love playing with dogs and taking them on nice long walks! Please note, I am not taking on recurring services at the moment. I would be happy to take a dog on a nice exercise walk at the end of the day, potentially with some toys to play with too! I would love to sit with your cat and give it some nice brushes and mice to chase. On Rover, I have taken care of cats, dogs, a bird and a horse. I am really open to any furry friend that needs some company! Your pet is my pet. I ensure the safety and security of your pet as if it is my own. Feel free to share other information that makes you feel most comfortable🙂

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Layhill South is $27 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $33 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 17,564 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Layhill South. 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 Layhill South. 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 Layhill South 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 Layhill South. On Rover:

  • 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
