Seriously he is the best dog walker that I have ever had. I’m extremely grateful Rover. You have one heck of a dog walker on your hands. And I’m really grateful that he lives in my town. Thank you Hunter for everything that you’re doing for me. Above and beyond.

About: I am a stay at home mom with 2 school - aged boys. My kids love dogs almost as much as I do and are very good at helping out with them. I have been a dog owner for 30+ years and our dogs have always been treated like family, including having their own Christmas stockings. We adopted our sweet senior rottie mix, Roary, back in 2023 and our indoor/outdoor kitten, Biscuit, in 2025. I will only care for dogs in my home that get along with children, dogs, and cats so everyone will feel comfortable. If your dog plays well with others, (s)he will be treated as family! I work from home, so I spend the majority of my day at home. Your pet will not be alone for long, if at all. We live on 3 acres and while we don’t have a fenced yard, your pet will spend plenty of time outside (on a leash) and be walked around the yard every few hours. I currently work from home. I will be able to take your pet for multiple walks daily and attend to their needs consistently. Even though I work from home, my time is important. Last minute requests will have a $25 charge added to the booking. I do not have a fenced yard, but I have a good amount of property and will walk your pup throughout the day. If they need more exercise, I do have a long lead I can put them on to play fetch or just run around. I do not allow the pups to be outside unsupervised or unleashed at any time.

About: I have 21 years of comfortability around pets (since I was born) and 3 years of professional pet sitting experience with both dogs & cats :). I have experience with senior pets & puppies! I have a part time job but my shifts are usually less than 8 hours. **if your pet cannot be left alone for 6-8 hours please give me at least 3 weeks of notice so I can make sure my work schedule is aligned to their needs.** I treat my pets with love, care, and as a part of my family! I would do the same with your pets to make them feel as safe and at home as possible.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and a natural instinct for taking care of them. I’ve pet sat my uncle’s dog several times, making sure they were walked, fed, and felt at home while he was away. I also watched over my parents’ Great Dane for a full week while they were on their anniversary trip — managing meals, walks, and plenty of cuddle time with a 150-pound gentle giant. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a chill senior dog, I treat every pet with patience, care, and respect. You can count on me to show up, follow instructions, and make your pet feel safe and loved. I'm currently searching for employment, so I'm available anytime. Seeking to make some money on the side while job hunting. What better way than to do what i love - spend time with animals I have a fully fenced backyard on a 23-acre property, and three friendly dogs who love meeting new buddies. Your pet will have space to play and relax safely. I can easily crate your dog if needed, follow any feeding or medication instructions, and always make sure your fur baby feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of the pack.

About: I’ve had experience with dogs my whole life. Growing up, my family bred Australian shepherds. I’ve owned small dogs like a Chihuahua and big dogs like Great Pyrenees. I’ve had experience with just about every breed of dog. I’m a pitbull lover as I currently own one. I love taking walks and giving lots of cuddles! I currently work full time in a school so I get plenty of time off including holiday breaks and summer hours. I only work 7 hours a day Monday-Friday. So I’m available for overnight care. I’m available most weekends as well. I would feel more comfortable in your home so your pets don’t get any anxiety being away from their safe place. I’m trustworthy and reliable. I’ve had background checks and I have reliable sources. Your pet will be in good care with me.

About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I currently own a German Shepherd/Poodle mix and a Maltese/Yorkie, so I’m very comfortable handling both high-energy dogs and smaller breeds that need extra attention and care. Caring for my own dogs has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like family. I understand that every animal has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced in walking, feeding on schedule, providing playtime, administering basic care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m also comfortable with puppies that need extra patience and energy, as well as with older dogs that may need a calmer, gentler approach. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own dogs. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and care they need throughout the day. Since I’m organized and good at managing my time, I’m flexible and dependable for drop-in visits or walks during the week! I enjoy staying active, so taking dogs on walks or spending time playing with them is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s sticking to a pet’s normal routine or giving extra attention when needed, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand how important routines are for pets, so I make sure to follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level to help reduce stress while their owner is away. I have experience caring for both large and small dogs through my own pets, a German Shepherd/Poodle mix and a Maltese/Yorkie, so I’m comfortable handling different energy levels and personalities. I keep environments clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always prioritize safety during walks, outdoor time, and interactions. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and give owners peace of mind, knowing their pets are in caring, dependable hands.

Available every other weekend for over night stays in your home. My yard is not fenced but I do have a picket line for the pups or I can take them out on a leash, whatever you prefer. I am also able to crate if needed. Pups are allowed on the furniture and are treated like family.

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my mix of reliability, genuine love for animals, and personalized care. I don’t just ‘watch’ pets, I spend quality time with them and making sure they feel, loved and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, giving extra playtime, or sending you updates for peace of mind, I treat every pet like my own family 🤍 I’m currently working full time but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule especially around the holidays and on weekends! I have a furry friend of my own so I understand your pets needs and wants! I have a large fenced in backyard which is very suitable for your dogs to run around and get all their energy out. I have a 2 year old black lab who LOVES to be social with any and every dog friend 🥰

About: My name is Lou, and I'm an aspiring beekeeper / amateur naturalist. I love all critters, big and small, and have a talent for effective care. I grew up around dogs, cats, and rabbits. In my recent adult life, I cared for a geriatric black cat (Jellybean) who quickly became my best friend. I miss that grumpy furball with all my heart (he has since passed). I currently help my mom care for her big ball of energy bernedoodle (Floyd). He has taught me that training a puppy takes consistency, compassion, and adaptability. We love going on walks at our local park! I have house-, cat-, dog-, chicken-, horse-, and garden-sat for many friends and colleagues, and would love to assist you with whoever you love — be they furred, scaled, winged, or environmental! We all need extra help sometimes. I'd be happy to provide care for your pet(s), so you can focus on what you need to and live the life you want, and come home to a happy healthy critter companion. My schedule is highly flexible. I prefer to work with your pet(s) during the day, but am open to evening check-in visits as well. Not currently doing overnight visits. With a little context from yourself about their routines, I will do everything in my power to make sure your pal is comfortable and happy.

About: I have been a part time dog sitter, cat sitter, house sitter, etc since I was 10 years old. I've also been a volunteer at my local animal shelter since I was 15. I've taken care of old dogs, young dogs, energetic dogs, couch potato dogs, friendly dogs, shy dogs, big dogs, small dogs, you name it. I've been doing this a long time and I've gotten really good understanding each pet and their individual needs. Every dog is different, and I love them all. I also have experience with dogs who need medications and ear drops, and I am Red Cross certified in Pet First Aid! I provide pet care full time, helping owners have peace of mind when they have to leave their buddies behind for a trip, or to go to work, it makes me happy knowing I can help out people and animals who could use an extra set of hands. I have an active personal life, always making plans friends and family, but offering services on here allows me to plan my leisure time around times I'm needed for pet care. Firstly, I want to say I understand meeting people online and inviting them into your home can be very anxiety inducing, and I want to reassure you that with me, your pet, your house, and your belongings are safe. If you have ANY questions or concerns, please let me know. I'm here to help answer anything that could cause you worry. Your pets are part of the family and I understand staying safe is a priority. When I personally am trusted to stay in someone's home, I usually stick around the same area of the house out of habit. I keep food where it belongs to prevent mishaps, and keep things off the floor to prevent injuries of their me or pets. When going for walks I like to stick to trails or sidewalked areas that have decent cell reception, just in case. I keep treats with me, extra bags, and have a phone holder for my wrist so I can have a hand free, especially for dogs who get excited from wildlife and could suddenly pull really hard anytime. I keep a pop up bowl and a bottle for water breaks. Before going for longer walks I touch test the path in case they are too hot. I also have experience putting jackets on dogs in the colder months.

About: Hi, I'm Camilla, the heart behind Wags and Joy Pet Care.Over the years, I've spent my life surrounded by animals, and turning that love into a profession has been the most natural step in the world. I've been a pet mom to a German Shepherd Dog, two Australian Cattle Dogs and four cats. I loved them all very much, and took very good care of them. I welcome the opportunity to get to know your dog, and shower them with love and affection. I like to walk, to play, and to cuddle. I have experience with senior dogs, and can administer injections and oral treatments. I have passed a Background Check and an Identity Verification. I am certified by the American Red Cross in Cat and Dog First Aid, and carry a pet first aid kit while I care for your dog. I am insured. I'm committed to treating your pup the way I treat my own, like family - from energetic adventurers to gentle seniors, I tailor every visit to who your dog actually is. I'm a full-time pet care provider, which means I'm available 7 days a week, from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.. I'm available with one day's notice for established customers for a walk or drop-in visit. For new families, we need to allow a day or two for a complementary "meet and greet," and then if I'm a good fit for your pet, we can schedule walks and visits. I will settle in with your fur baby, and learn the lay of the land in the house and yard if we are at your house. We'll have some treats (if appropriate) and go out for potty, walk, and play. Then we'll rest and cuddle. Then we'll play some more!

About: I was grew up on a farm and have spent most of my life with animals. I worked at a local vet clinic in high school, trained horses and I have worked in rescue. My family always had at least one dog for as long as I can remember. I got my first Border Collie, Dexter, when I was thirteen. Dex and I did everything together and he's the one who made me fall in love with Border Collies and all things dog related. I have been training, showing and breeding for nearly 23 years. The dogs I have now are involved in disc, agility, dock diving, obedience and herding. I enjoy all animals but dogs and horses will always have a special place in my heart because so much of my life has been spent with them. My hours are generally very flexible and I am available whenever best suits you and your pets needs. Most of free time is spent with my dogs or with clients. I'm not watching pets at my home right now because my oldest dog doesn't like strangers and I don't want to upset him if I don't have to. *Currently rewriting my profile please excuse the chaos*

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lum

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Lum on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of July 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 .

As of July 2026, there are 1,147 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lum. 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 Lum. 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 Lum.

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 Lum. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
