“Shannon was huge help walking our dog Nora after my foot surgery. She was responsible, communicative, and took some cute pictures of Nora during their walks! We will definitely book again.”
“Mark took great care of our puppy. He was very quick to respond to my request (it was somewhat short notice) and was a lifesaver. He kept us updated and paid attention to our dogs needs. I highly recommend Mark and will be using him in the future.”
About: I am a certified veterinary assistant.I graduated from a vet science class where we perform animal care on the pets we have: bunnies, cats, guinea pigs, grooming dogs, etc. I used to work at Dogtopia so I know how to handle dogs. I am currently enrolled in Tuskegee University to become an Exotic and Avian Veterinary. I am currently a freshman in college 10 hours away so I will only be available during my breaks: (maybe Thanksgiving), Christmas, and most of summer. I have 2 ESA cats .

“Brandi is very reliable, caring towards my dog and accommodating. She also helped us to better understand the Rover app and how to utilize all its features. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs my whole life, and 6 years ago my husband and I adopted a large rescue dog from Eastern Europe. She’s had a lot of anxiety and nervousness, but with lots of love, training, and patience she’s come a long way and fully trusts us now. I'm very patient and attune to animals needs and have experience around many breeds, needs, and sizes. The happiness and safety of your pet is my biggest concern. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, and I look forward to meeting you and your pet! My schedule is fairly flexible after work and on the weekends. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing in the house with their toys, and bonding. My husband and I love hiking and being outdoors and often go on long walks with our own dog. The safety and care of your pet is my biggest concern as I all too well know the feeling of leaving your beloved pet with someone else. Your dog will always be on a leash in my care and constantly looked after - I don’t take any risks when it comes to caring for your pet.
“Kiki had the best time with Janini. Pick and drop off was perfect, she was nice and sleepy when she got home. She can’t wait for her next visit with Mrs Janini!!”
“Got along very well with my mini poodle, she may be his new best friend 🧡 they did great together from the moment they meet at the meet and greet, she did an awesome job”
About: Hi, I'm Kim! I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I'm a mom of 4 fur babies of my own and have had animals all my life. I am currently transitioning from a 13 year Nanny position into my dream job of caring for animals full time. Three years ago, I started pet sitting part-time and have gotten rave reviews and I absolutely love it!! (References available on request) My schedule is very flexible for drop-ins and overnight stays on a first come, first serve basis. I will come to your pet's home where they are most comfortable. Offering pet care services in your home, I follow the typical routine you and your pets have already established. They will keep their routine and not go through any traumatic transitions. The best part? Your fur baby is there when you get home. Your home will also have that "lived in" look. Mail will be picked up, plants watered, lights will be switched on and off, trash rolled to the curb, and any house issues that arise can be addressed. Especially for overnight or vacation services, I would love the chance to meet you and your pet(s) in your home ahead of time. I always encourage new clients to schedule a (free) 30-minute meet-and-greet before the first booking (either at your home or a public location) so that I can meet your pet(s). If I am doing a sitting or drop-in, then these are perfect for showing me where the food supplies are as well as bowls, litter box(es), and anything else that may be needed for the booking I send daily updates while you are away so your vacation is worry free. I am looking to establish a regular client base and consider pets as part of the family.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats since infancy and I started petsitting professionally for neighbors, friends, family and others at age 12. Now, I love providing petsitting, dogsitting and petcare services for animals on the side. I have two well-behaved indoor cats of my own and they have many "cousins" (my mom bred Shelties and currently owns three, in addition to a kitten and my sister has a rescue pup). I have fostered moms with kittens from the SPCA. I am patient, kind, loving and caring for furry-faced friends brings me much joy and fulfillment! I currently take care of my best friend’s Maine Coon when she is out of town and on weekdays, I let out and play with her Corgi and lab puppy mid day. I also Petsit for neighbors as needed and have long term relationships with families whose dogs and cats I have taken care of for going on 6+ years! I work full time but it is regular 9-5 Mon through Fri hours and it is a remote job so I work from home. I am available in the mornings, evenings, weekends, holidays and can check in on pets during the day if needed. I have petsat for many folks while working full-time without any issues, and have already established a great routine for petsitting while working remotely! I live in a spacious two bedroom, two bathroom apartment. I have two friendly, well-behaved indoor cats who are familiar with dogs, cats and pets and have had foster cats, kittens and dogs in our apartment with no fights or problems! We do not have a yard, but the apartment is pet-friendly, in the suburbs, in a safe neighborhood and has lots of sidewalks, grassy areas and space for dog walking, etc. There is even a fenced-in dog park a minute from our apartment, in the complex! :) Our apartment is clean, spacious and has plenty of blankets, furniture and space for fuzzy-faced kiddos! I work full time but remotely and it’s easy for me to fit pet care into that routine! Having a flexible schedule allows me to work around your pets’ needs! I am flexible and am comfortable caring for your fur baby in my home or yours! Have provided both services over the years. Just let me know what best suits you!
About: I have experience for being responsible for animals my whole life. I have 15 pets of my own and love the responsibility. I enjoying interacting with animals and giving them my full attention. Weekly I care for my own pets and would love to care for yours as well. There isn’t anything I’m not willing to do in caring for your pet. Right now I’m off from work in the summers and have a lot of time on my hands. I will follow detailed instructions on how to handle your animals and what you want to be done. I will always put their safety first and will keep that in mind at all times.
“Julia did an amazing job keeping my puppy busy while I was in a meeting. She is very reliable and I would definitely book again. I loved seeing the pictures and that she included a write-up of all the fun things they did together.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including cats, dogs, snakes, hamsters, and fish. My dog experience includes Labrador Retrievers, Great Danes, and Boston Terriers, as well as fostering dogs. I also have experience caring for dogs with diabetes who require insulin injections and additional attention to their medical needs. As a Registered Nurse, I’m comfortable following care instructions, monitoring for changes, and providing attentive, reliable care. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I treat every animal with patience, love, and compassion as if they were my own! I am a night nurse. Days are wide open usually. Let me know what you need prior to booking. I can do most times of the day/ week. I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable when they can stick to their normal routines. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions from their owner. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and affection while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. As an RN, I’m attentive to details and comfortable following medication and care instructions, including insulin administration for diabetic dogs. Whether caring for pets in my home or theirs, I treat them like family and keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I moved to Richmond about a year ago, which meant leaving my two pups back home with their dad. As rural, born-and-bred dogs, city life just wasn’t the right fit for them. So now, I’m filling that gap by spending time with other people’s furry friends! I’ve become the go-to dog walker for my neighbors, and I genuinely love it—it gives me my weekly dose of wagging tails and happy walks. I’d love the chance to walk your dog and give them the care, attention, and exercise they deserve. Pet care is something I’ve naturally built into my weekly routine. Since moving to Richmond about a year ago and leaving my two dogs back home, I’ve really missed that daily connection with animals. Walking dogs has been the perfect way to stay active while still getting that time with furry companions. I regularly walk dogs for my neighbors, so I’m already used to planning my schedule around consistent walks and giving each dog dedicated attention. It’s something I genuinely look forward to each week—it doesn’t feel like a task, but more like a highlight of my day. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to fit walks into my routine in a way that works best for both you and your pup. I will provide attentive, personalized care based on each pets routine and personality, whether I’m in my client’s home or caring for them on a walk. I make sure every pet gets plenty of exercise, affection, and supervision, while sticking closely to any instructions the owner provides regarding feeding, leash use, or behavior preferences.
About: All my life, I have helped animals in trouble or strays, turning them into truly loved and cared for pets. I spent most of my life living on a farm, volunteered for two years at an animal shelter which I still support financially My husband and I take care of the furry friends, He work from home and I work in the mornings, weekends we are in home but some we travel so we prefer to you book in 2-3 days in advance I have a spacious two-bedroom apartment with a balcony covered in artificial grass. Within my complex, there’s a pet play area and plenty of space for walks by the lake—always on a leash. There’s also a flat wooded area with natural grass for pets to enjoy
About: Friends and family have relied on me numerous times to be their pet sitter. My roommate has a 3 year old golden retriever and an elderly cat who I love so dearly. I care for them when she cannot. My sister also has a golden retriever and I watch him when she goes out of town. I grew up with dogs and know how to cater to their needs. My grandparents even told me that I am the godmother to their 2 cats because they see how great I am with them. I work full time 8:00-5:00 and will happily watch your pets in the evening or weekends when you are away. I love taking pets on walks in the museum district! Your pet will feel safe in their own environment and I’ll match their energy so that they are comfortable and relaxed. I want them to barely even notice you’re gone.

We've utilized Benjamin quite a few times over the last year or so. He is consistently a great communicator, reliable, and generous with the pup (which is very much appreciated since she can be the nervous type). Highly recommend Benjamin for whatever support you need for your pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Lorraine is $18 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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.

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 Lorraine. 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 Lorraine 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 Lorraine. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
