“Kerri has been getting to know Patches prior to house- and dog-sitting for us for a week in June. Kerri is very responsible, very kind, and wonderful with our dog. Patches is a little skittish, particularly with new people, but he has warmed up to Kerri who plays with him, walks him, and pets him (he loves belly rubs). We feel very comfortable leaving him with Kerri.”
“Sabrina does a wonderful job making sure our pup is taken care of. Our pup is even getting better with being walked on a leash. We appreciate everything she does for our pup.”

“Lindsey is extremely chill and the exact perfect fit for our reactive Kevin. Kevin is excitable but as soon as he sees Lindsey he calms down and is ready for a walk. I highly recommend!!!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, both dogs and cats. Many different breeds and sizes. I also occasionally dog sit for a family friend, and they have a puppy. i’m currently working as a server/bartender, so anything in Frederick would be ideal. But I live in Westminster so that would also be convenient. Willing to drive, but depends on my work schedule and how often you want me there. I currently live at home with my family and we have three dogs, one being a German Shepherd and the smallest being a Yorkie mix. And I have two cats of my own that I take care of solely, but five others in the house. And other miscellaneous pets.
About: I've been taking care of dogs and sometimes a cat that my family had had for many years. In 2017, I got my first dog, Rowan, who's in my profile picture with me. Sadly, he passed away in March of 2025, but I was there with him every step of the way and tried to give him the best home and all the love any pet deserves. I have experience with potty training and some basic command training using voice tone, treats, and a consistent routine. When my dog got older and got sick, I had to adjust certain ways of doing things to help him be more comfortable and get him to eat and take medications, so I'm a bit experienced with those situations, as well as with a healthy young pet. I'm available every day, except for Tuesday-Thursday. I'm good with dropping by every 2-4 hours or even staying over for an extended period of time to watch and take care of a pet. If it is a dog I'm caring for, then I'll give regular bathroom breaks and, at the same time, incorporate exercise time for the dog (may give more time if needed/requested). I'll also feed and check on the pet as requested and discussed with the pet owners to ensure that the needs of the pet and what is expected of me are satisfied. If it is a cat, I'll engage outside or inside as requested, feed and clean the litter box, and even give a little time with the animal to ensure they don't feel lonely, and then either leave or stay as requested.
About: Ive been taking care of my neighbors, friends, and families pets for a little over 6 years now. Over the years I have learned many things about pets and how to calm them down and gently direct them in the right path. I also have lots of experience with senior dogs who need more attention to detail than younger dogs. Pet care fits into my daily routine quite well. Im a sophomore at frederick community college taking only one in person class, so my hours are almost always completely available! I am the dominant pet care taker in my home with two dogs (my angels). I care for pets in my clients home by greeting them and let them get to know me. If the client has a fenced in yard for me to take the dogs out and play thats amazing, but if not I take the dogs for nice walk to get them exercise and some entertainment. I am all for following directions so just let me know what you need and ill handle it!

From drop ins and walks to overnight sitting. My own pets are treated as family members and I will treat anyone else's pet the same exact way.

About: My daughter and I have been doing animal sitting, walking and drop ins for close family and friends over the past 5 years. As my daughter prepares for graduation in the next year, we said it’s time to make a business out of something we both love. There’s never been a time in our life that we have not had 3-4 pets of our own. From bringing home every stray dog, cat, baby bunny, possum, raccoons and birds to save and rehabilitate. We are very involved in animal rights, animal welfare, cat colony management, fostering and TNR! Even some of the most feral cats have build extremely loving relationships with us.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 4,007 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 your Linwood. 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 Linwood.
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 Linwood. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
