“Nicole was great and exceeded my expectations. She came over to meet our dogs before we left on vacation and they instantly liked her. While on vacation she sent videos and pictures after every walk and was ALWAYS on time. She made my vacation worry free and I can’t thank her enough!”

About: I've grown up around dogs and cats my whole life. I have cared for pets while friends/family were away and enjoy doing so. I love spending time with animals. At the moment I am part time and have my daughter. My schedule is very open. Even on my work days I am free the first half of the day. However you want them taken care of is how I will do so. Always with love and kindness. I see my pets as my family.

About: I have been around animals ever since I was born, and started my first job petsitting in only 6th grade. I have worked with a variety of animals ranging from dogs and cats, to ducks, to chinchillas, to horses! I’ve always felt like I have a strong connection with animals, and see my own animals as children. This is why I want to help others take care of their fur babies knowing that they are in safe kind hands while they are away. It is my number one priority to make sure your animal is happy, safe, and comfortable in your absence. Every animal has its own personality, and I’ve loved bonding with so many animals over the years. Animal experience: -dog -cat -horse -goat -chicken -duck -bunny -hamster -Guinea pig -chinchilla -turtle -hermit crab -fish Pet sitting is my full time job, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for walks, drop in visits, and overnight care. I do have a few weekly dog walking clients that typically keep me busy from around 10 AM to 2 PM, but outside of those visits I am generally very flexible and can work around your schedule. I am also happy to accommodate same day bookings whenever possible! I firmly believe that a consistent routine for an animal is key to keeping them comfortable, especially if you are to leave. I would follow the owners daily routine to help keep your animals calmer. If they are crate trained I can put them in their crate, watch them in the yard, take them on walks, play with them, and cuddle at the end of the day. I strongly believe in the saying “leave it better than you found it”, which I intend to do in your home!

About: Since 2016, I’d eagerly come home each day looking forward to taking my dog, Teddy, on long walks outside. That passion led me to create my own dog treat business, driven by my desire to share that love and care with other dogs. It is so rewarding knowing I can contribute to the happiness and health of dogs one walk at a time. I am currently very free during the hot summer months while taking care of my dog, Teddy. I have a lot of extra free time for any last minute walks! My home is a very calm environment with no kids and one other dog. There is a lot of space outside and many friendly dogs in the neighborhood. I am very attentive to whatever it is the dog may need, (walks, play-time, or love!) as well as being educated on dog behavior.

About: My husband and I have a lot of love for animals, but we have none of our own yet so we have plenty of love to give to your furry kids! We live in a good area with a park, but if your pets enjoy the indoors more, we have a spacious home for them to roam around in and plenty of movies to watch with them! First timers with me will receive complimentary puppy portraits!! We work nearby with flexible hours so with a good amount of notice, we can make almost anything work! I work early mornings and get home by noon. My husband works a 9-5 close to home and is available to be home in an instant. I volunteered at animal shelters for years and have tons of experience! I moved to Massachusetts so I recently started my journey here! We also live near a dog park!

About: I'm good with all animals. I've just always clicked with our little furry friends. No dog is too big and no cat is too spicy. I'm logical, fun, and love playing with animals. I'm currently in a tough job market as AI is really taking over a lot of the software world. I'd love to make a little side hustle money while taking care of our furry friends. I think the most important thing is I treat all animals with love and respect. And I'm not looking to mess up any routines you guys have set. I will execute them for the letter.

About: I meditate regularly so I have a calm, grounded presence, especially around animals. I grew up around cat and dogs my whole life so I know them well and how to care for them. Also I all kinds of animals including octopus, fish, snakes, scorpions, frogs, spiders, hedgehogs, ferrets, etc. Happy to care for any and all pets in your family. I run my own design/tech/apparel company (goodfornothing.lol) so I can work from anywhere on my laptop and my schedule is my own. Taking care of animals is a joy for me and gets me out of the house and out for walks =) I can be available for weekdays or most weekends with enough prior notice. I especially enjoy dropping in on pets during the day when their people are at work and give them some time/food/walks/playtime/attention. I can't offer pet boarding in my home currently, but I'm happy to house and pet sit for you while your family is away. I prefer sleeping in my own travel camper that I can park easily by your home when I come to visit. Happy to arrange anything from as short as a weekend to a few weeks if you'll be away for a while.

“Our dog is a handful and Gabriela has done such an amazing job with him. She is incredibly patient and goes over the top to make sure Bruno is able to get all of his energy (and he has a LOT of it) out during their mid-day walks. She has even stayed over their allotted time if he needs a little extra time to get settled back in after their walk, giving him lots of water and treats to hold him over until we get home. So happy we found Gabriela!”

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who has had a passion for pets for as long as I can remember. My first dog, Rex, a Doberman, taught me just how much love, patience, and responsibility go into caring for an animal. While taking care of pets isn’t always easy, I truly believe every moment is worth it. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat each one with the same care and attention I would give my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I’d be honored to provide reliable, compassionate care for your furry friend. Yes! I currently am in college for nursing, and I also work at a bagel shop so this would be something I would attend after or before attending those priorities! A fenced yard is definitely helpful and in others homes I will respectful there home and do anything needed to make sure there pet is safe.

About: Hi! I’m a caring and responsible pet lover with experience taking care of both cats and dogs. I’ve cared for pets in the past, so I understand how important it is to provide them with love, patience, attention, and a safe environment. I’m also a proud cat parent to my 6-year-old cat, which has given me years of experience understanding a cat’s needs, personality, and daily routine. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, providing companionship, or giving extra cuddles, I enjoy making pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to make sure your furry family member receives the best possible care. I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated with messages and photos while you’re away. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always my priority. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I have experience caring for my family’s dog and my friends’ pets, along with being a proud cat parent to my 6-year-old cat. I’m familiar with daily feeding, playtime, walks, and giving pets the attention and affection they need. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to follow their usual routines and treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own. 🐾❤️ I prefer pet sitting in your home because I believe pets feel most comfortable and secure in their own familiar environment. Staying in their own home allows them to maintain their routines and feel less stressed while you’re away. I respect each pet’s boundaries, pay attention to their body language, and let them approach me at their own pace. I believe animals deserve the same kindness, patience, and respect as humans. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, understood, and loved, just as I would want someone to care for my own 6-year-old cat. 🐾❤️

About: I decided to try letting a husky pull me on roller blades 27 years ago, and a bond was created that I am convinced was the greatest thing ever. I became an aspiring writer and began researching dogs, playing with them and loving them all the same. I understood that some people just had that dog thing, but I wanted to know why. Still working on my writing, and still researching, I started roller blading around Webster lake with a rescue puppy this past year. I remembered the incredible joys that a dog would have discovering the freedom, and it's really incredible. I don't claim to be a dog whisperer, but I have learned from studying dog behaviors and personalities. Honey has been incredible this season. Some dogs would rather just sniff, and it's arguably the most incredible of dog traits. Sometimes finding the space to run can be a challenge, but even just on a walk, it's all about giving them the chance to choose when you can. I have been an educator as a substitute and a paraprofessional, and enjoyed 20 years with a number of schools and institutions. Coaching tennis, track, and rock climbing, I love giving new experiences. As director for an adventure camp or as recreation games coordinator, I was able to incorporate a team into all the fun. Relying on the service industry for work, I have developed my communication skills in many fields. 3 years working for the May Institute with adults with severe disabilities gained me a humility not found elsewhere. In the Healthcare industry I found incredible individuals who just fit their calling, and you were better for being around them. The last 2 years I have traveled the state as a licensed pest technician solving homeowner problems, and keeping people safe. I enjoyed being a source of information, and health, and was careful to appreciate coming into someone's home and life. I'm currently planning on returning to school to attain my message therapy certification and utilize my background in health. It's a good plan with modification, and I am hopeful that Amazon flexibility will help. I'm the kind of person who starts with a smile, and believes that kindness is always an option. I understand that taking care of your animals and home is a sacred thing, and I will remain transparent and available. I'm currently working for Amazon, Sunday through Wednesday, and have Thursday, Friday, and Saturday completely free for services. Additionally I can be available for any other days with proper notice, due to Amazon's flexibility with their scheduling. Our yard is fenced in, and our two rescue dogs enjoy their space very much playing and running around. Our 16 year old cat enjoys being an inside/outside cat very much, and has adapted to our precocious new additions. Our back door is opened frequently.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Linwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Linwood is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $24 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 November 2026, there are 4,444 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Linwood. 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 Linwood. 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 Linwood 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 Linwood. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
