“Leona is so super amazing! And Shadow gets really excited Every time he sees her, which makes my heart feel really warm. She plays with him and give him structure, which as a puppy he really needs. She always makes sure the walk is 30 minutes (and sometimes more!), but he always comes back super happy to have been on a walk with her. We are very grateful for her. ❤️ And we totally recommend!”
“Ari has been great with my pup. During the meet and greet, he asked great questions and played with Nala which made me feel more comfortable. I will definitely continue to use his services and Nala seems to like him too!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Locust Point
I was taking care of my son’s, high energy, 1 year 5 month old lab, Maverick and was nervous about letting him walk with a stranger. But Thankfully came across Rover and Ari, who was absolutely fantastic! Maverick usually requires a lot of patience, but Ari knew how to handle him. I loved receiving the daily photo updates and walk summaries, and of course Maverick always came home happy, calm, and ready for a nap. Highly recommend, Ari - will definitely seek for Ari in the future.
Leona has been walking my dog, Max, for several years now, and I cannot recommend her enough! They are incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and punctual. [Dog's Name] absolutely adores them and gets so excited every time they arrive. If you want peace of mind and top-tier care for your pet, hire [Walker's Name]!
I can't say enough good things about Anny, who walks my dog, Pancito. From the very first meeting, it was clear that Annie is an incredibly professional and kind individual. She has a natural ability to connect with animals, and it's evident in how much Pancito adores her. Pancito gets so incredibly excited whenever Annie arrives, it’s like she’s greeting a long-lost friend. The bond they've formed is truly remarkable; watching them interact, it's as if I'm walking my own dog – that’s the level of trust and affection they share. Anny’s dedication and gentle approach make her an absolute star, and I feel so fortunate to have found her to care for Pancito. I will definitely be booking with her again,
Janet is an outstanding dog walker! She bonded immediately with our two English Setters, and they happily anticipate her arrival when it is time for a walk to our nearby park. Janet sends us photos, videos, and updates throughout the walk. She keeps up a brisk pace but is sensitive enough to allow the girls to sniff when they wish, without them sneaking any inappropriate "snacks" that might be lingering on the path. Janet has an upbeat personality, and is always on time yet very flexible. We can’t recommend her highly enough!
Iris was so so amazing, she was super understanding towards my dogs personality since she’s more on the shy side, she was super sweet and made sure I was aware of everything that was going on. I felt so at ease having her come over to my place! Would definitely book her again and recommend her to everyone! ❤️

The average cost of Dog Walking in Locust Point is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $28 per walk.

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 Locust Point. 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 Locust Point 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 Locust Point. On Rover:
- 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 88% 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 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.
