“Shadia is awesome! I appreciate all that she does for our dog. When she comes over, I think our dog is excited to see her. Shadia gives us info and a picture in her communication with us.”
“Extremely reliable, communicative, and the dogs absolutely love him—we couldn’t ask for a better daily visit than our walks with CJ! He provides so much peace of mind, knowing my dogs are being well cared for when I can’t be there. The adorable photo updates are always a joy, and it’s clear that he puts a lot of effort into building relationships with his clients—human and furry friends alike.”
“Can’t say enough about how much of a dog whisperer I feel Maddie is! My dogs love walks but also are not too crazy about rain so while they still went on a short walk Maddie still gave them some great attention in the house afterwards. Thanks Maddie!”
“Amanda communicates to me with our dog’s behavior and makes me feel confident that our dog is happy. Would recommend her to anyone needing care for any dog big or small, young or mature.”
“Gabee was fabulous! She came to meet bogey a couple of days before the first walk, and was so receptive to everything we told her about him! She sent updates and photos throughout the walks, overall amazing first experience working with her!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities for over 20 years. As a neonatal nurse practitioner, providing attentive, compassionate care is part of who I am, and I bring that same level of responsibility and love to every pet I watch. I’m the proud owner of Kona, my friendly 9-year-old Lab/Shar-Pei mix, and I have two young children who have grown up around dogs and are gentle and respectful with animals. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m available most days of the week and can provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with people, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Kaleigh was an amazing sitter for our dog! She offered a meet and greet prior since it was our first time booking so that everyone was comfortable. She was punctual, attentive, and made sure to communicate so we knew exactly what was going on and when. We will definitely be using her again! 100% recommend her for your pets 🫶🏼”
“My dog looked forward to his walks with Brittany. We think he really misses his walks with her. Brittany helped us walk our dog daily while my parents were watching my dog for 10 days. She was great with communication, reliable and great with my dog. Would absolutely recommend and use her again!”
About: I have been a registered veterinary technician for 9 years. I specifically work with emergency and critical care. I of course have my own animals that I have cared for 12 years. I have four dogs, two cats, a betta fish, some shrimp, and a snail. Animals are my passion and I will treat yours like my own. I only work three nights a week, which leaves long weekends available for services. I have pretty open availability to suit your needs. I’m very willing to work with your schedule. Whether you need over night care or daily walks, I'm confident we can arrange something. Unfortunately at this time, I will only have services outside of my home. I will care for your furry loved ones like they are my own.
“Amazing worked with me on short notice very understanding I was so nervous about my puppy with a stranger but with amber I feel confident that my pups in good hands. She working with her on not pulling which I can already tell is working. she the best! 10/10 recommend”
“Marissa is awesome! She has been walking Lilly for over a week now, and I couldn't be happier. She is dependable, always comes in the time frame I ask, and I feel that she cares about my dog. She always gives me updates in addition to the card that Rover gives you. As a dog trainer myself, I have met several dog walkers who don't actually know how to walk a dog. You can rest assured that Marissa will properly walk your dog. I highly recommend that if you need a dog walker to look no further than Marissa.”
About: I have been rescuing cats and other animals for over 15 years and work with my neighbors to try and find homes for them. We have always had dogs and cats. I love animals and have lots of love and attention to give! Since my husband passed away in 2010, I have spent time traveling and I have time on my hands to work on my garden and house and read. I love the company of animals and I feel they like me too! I am a very organized person and try to provide a sense of a schedule for the pets as well. I think it helps everyone to be flexible but not in the areas that matter like going outside and the feeding schedules! No pitbulls, and no mixed breeds with pitbulls please. I’m currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time for your pets! I provide a loving, nurturing environment. I can take your pet after 2 pm! I have a fenced in back yard. I will provide exercise and plenty of fresh water and opportunities for potty breaks! Daily walks as well!
About: I absolutely love dogs! I have grown up with dogs and have years of dog sitting under my belt. Your pups will be safe and happy with me! I work from home, and I am able to provide your dog(s) all of the care that they need! I am able to walk, babysit, or play with your pups whenever you need! I will make sure your dogs are well taken care of and treat them like they are my own! If I come to your house, I will follow your pets routine.
“Nikki was amazing! Really helpful and very versatile with your schedule/needs. She is very responsive and always leaves a note with pictures whenever she visits your pets. Highly recommend and will be booking with her anytime when we need it!”

Communication is very important to me, so I’ll send regular updates and photos to keep you informed while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and prove I’m someone you can trust. *My Availability* Sundays + Mondays: full availability Weekdays: after 5 PM I currently work another job, so I care for pets around my schedule.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Lorain on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Lorain. 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 Lorain.

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 Lorain. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
