Amber was amazing and very attentive to our dog. We have a Great Pyrenees that can be a handful at times and she was great with her.

About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, chickens mainly for family and friends, some neighbors. I very good with young hyper dogs considering I have a miniature Aussie. I also have a 12 senior dog who can only go on 15 min walks. I love all animals wether it’s watching/playing with them or taking them on walks! Pet care fits into my schedule cause I’m a young hairstylist who is trying to fill up her books. Being a new hairstylist isn’t easy and I want to fulfill my time well considering bills I have to pay each month I am very comfortable with animals depending if you want me to spend the night or not. I’m very flexible with coming and going or simple taking them on walks. I love to take my own dogs on walk and runs as well!

About: My family has had dogs most of my life, and I had my first cat as a young adult. My animal approach starts with your family’s structure, and my enthusiasm for considerate and trustworthy pet care. I’ve worked with dogs of most ages from puppy through senior pups, and I’ve been around barn cats and kittens since my youth. I have had an indoor cat since he was a young kitten, and currently live with 3 adult cats that I’ve known as grown kitties. I have ample availability to prioritize your pets thanks to a flexible schedule. You don’t need to choose between career ambition and companion care, let me help your household thrive so you can grind without guilt! I’ve had experience with crating and free roaming for my dogs in the past, (My pups have since crossed over the rainbow bridge) and am open to what your home expectations are. The cats I live with now are accustomed to a routine schedule of feeding and interaction at their leisure, with snacks and playtime too.

About: Certified in dog CPR and first aid, with 50 hours of dog handling and management training through Pack Pro. Five years of experience on a hobby farm, handling all morning and evening chores and feedings for a variety of animals, including goats, chickens, ducks, bunnies, dogs, cats, and horses. Trust your furry friends to someone with a proven track record of animal care and safety.

Beyond these commitments, I'm generally available and flexible, making pet sitting a perfect fit for my lifestyle! Safety is my top priority. I follow all of the owner's instructions meticulously regarding feeding, medication, and exercise. I maintain a clean and safe environment, free from hazards.

I respect the client's home and maintain open communication, providing updates and addressing any concerns promptly.

About: We grew up with pets and we have a pet loving family. We have a German wirehair pointer dog, cat and raise rabbits for showing. We also volunteer at a local goat farm and help take care of goats. I work full time out of the home, Monday-Friday, so your dog will be kenneled while we are at work. Unless it’s summer or holiday then my schedule may be different. I will do morning walks and night walks and playtime outside after and before work. We have an unfenced large yard so your pet will be leashed for playtime. We have a nice larger private backyard so plenty of space for exercise.

About: My name is Corrie and I love animals, I have 2 cats, 2 dogs and 2 kids. They mean so much to me. I have a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I love going for walks with my dogs. I have a big yard that's 2.5 acres and we roam around the whole thing. Some of it's long grass so I will check for ticks. I cut or file my own dogs nails as well and can offer that if needed depending how well the dog or cat does. I work full time but work from home some days of the week, Wednesdays and Fridays. We are available in evenings and weekends. Especially in the winter. We have a large yard. Most of the time we let the dogs out on a 50 foot leash for quick potty breaks. Rocky is allowed to roam a little. Otherwise we walk the dogs around the yard or neighborhood. Have a large crate when needed.

About: I am a single mom, who enjoys animals just about as much as I love children. My son loves taking dogs for walks and helping me care for them. It teaches him about responsibility, integrity, and so much more.. Plus we get to play with many different animals and who doesn't love that! I enjoy all breeds of dog whether they are large or small as long as they're friendly with children. I am very professional, and respectful of people, their homes and their pets and have never gotten a bad review from any customer that I've ever had. I always go the extra mile to make the customer and the pet feel as comfortable as possible because it's hard to leave a pet, and also hard for a pet when the owner leaves.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Linwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 4,333 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:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
