About: We’re a friendly family of three who spent over 12 years raising our beloved lab–terrier mix, Able, who has since passed, and we don't currently have any dogs in the home. While we’re not quite ready to adopt another dog, we are ready to open our home and hearts to help care for yours. Our 10-year-old daughter adores dogs just as much as we do and is very comfortable around animals. Your pup will enjoy plenty of peaceful nature walks through the nearby woods and around the lakes by our home. I’m a stay-at-home dad with a very flexible schedule, so your dog will get lots of attention and companionship throughout the day. We also live right next to a veterinary clinic and close to several others, giving you extra peace of mind in case of an emergency. We’d be honored to care for your furry family member and make them feel right at home. Let us know how we can help! I’m home all day, which means your dog will enjoy constant attention, companionship, and relaxing walks on the peaceful nature trails right by our home. In our home, your dog is welcome to make itself comfortable and freely roam the house while being gently supervised. We’re flexible with couch and bed privileges—if your dog enjoys snuggling, they’re more than welcome to join us. We will refresh the water bowl regularly, keep the space clean, and provide multiple potty breaks throughout the day to ensure your dog feels relaxed, cared for, and right at home.

About: I absolutely love dogs and honestly think they are better than humans. I love discovering the unique personality that each dog has. I have owned dogs all my life and have taken care of countless friend's, family's, and neighbor's dogs. I have house sat many times, had dogs stay at my home for extended stays, and become the favorite person to most of my family and friend's dogs whenever I’m around them. I am home most of the time throughout the day and have the freedom to meet almost any need your dog will require. I have a 5 y.o. female golden retriever with a lot of love and energy and zero aggression. I can't think of a better way to occupy all of my free time than to spend my days entertaining your dog! I have all the time in the world to ensure that the services and quality of care that your dog deserves are met! I am available 24-7 to take care of dogs! The only commitment I have during the week is taking my kids to and from school and to their activities. Your Dog can ride shotgun! I will play with them as much as they need! I will feed your dog, go for as many walks as you need me to, take them out to go potty, and give them love and affection. I do have a crate if you would like me to crate your dog. However, I will be home the entire time and there really shouldn't ever be a need. I do have children so I do require that your dog is very good with kids. My kids are pretty calm and very nice to all animals. They love dogs almost as much as me. My Golden Retriever is high energy and very playful as well. So as long as your dog is ok with playing with other dogs then a great time will be had. I will accept any breed of dog into my home and care but I will not accept your dog if it is aggressive towards other dogs or children. I don’t care how wild and playful they are because that’s one thing I love about dogs! But if they tend to snarl and snip and assert dominance through aggression then I’m not your guy. I just want a safe environment for our pups to play.

About: Dedicated to providing personalized, loving care for pets, I focus on building trusting bonds and tailoring activities to each animal’s needs to ensure they have joyful experiences and give their owners peace of mind. ❤️ Although my own pets have passed the rainbow bridge — my beloved Labrador Retriever at 13½ years and my cat at 15 — my passion for spending quality time with animals remains strong. I’m eager for opportunities to be around pets again and give them the attention, care, and affection they deserve. I’m responsible, attentive, and familiar with safe, enjoyable outdoor time. My building has a dog park, and I also enjoy walking around Merriweather — perfect for exercise, play, and socialization. Pet care blends into my daily routine. Working from home grants me flexibility to accommodate pets' needs, ensuring I can adjust for any unexpected calls. In both my home and yours, attention to detail is crucial. Whether caring for my two elderly pets or yours, I treat them as family, ensuring personalized care and comfort

About: I have grown up with animals since I was born. I have experience with cats, dogs, rodents, reptiles and fish. I love spending time with animals and have been a professional pet sitter and walker for 5 years. Additionally, I have worked as an animal care professional where I specialized in administering medication, cleaning enclosures, and creating enrichment. My love for animals inspired me to study biology and am currently pursuing my PhD from the University of Maryland. As a student, my schedule is very accommodating. I can't wait to meet you and your fur babies! I am a full time student with most of my classes online. My schedule is very flexible and I can usually accommodate last minute bookings. I will treat your pet as if they are my own. I am very detail oriented and will follow whatever instructions you give me to a T. I believe it is important to keep to a pet's regular routine and will make sure they get plenty of food, water, walks, and love when needed.

About: Pets have been part of my family my entire life! I currently have three fur babies—a Siberian Husky, a Chihuahua/Pomeranian mix, and a cat—and I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. As a longtime Husky owner, I have experience with energetic and reactive dogs, as well as senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m also comfortable administering medications. Whether your pup loves long nature walks, trips to the dog park, or just some extra attention and companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. 🐕🐾❤️ Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine! With two dogs and a cat of my own, I’m used to making time for walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I enjoy being outdoors and going on walks, so adding another furry friend to my routine comes naturally. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to work with your pet’s normal schedule to help them feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in their home, I respect their space and follow all instructions provided by their owner, including feeding, walking, medication, and daily routines. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure before every walk or visit. I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities, including reactive and senior pets. I treat every pet with patience, love, and attention, just as I would my own.

About: I have 10 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, medical conditions, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable. I take the time to understand each pet needs and routine. I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where every pet is treated like family. I am currently finishing my masters program, which I attend school twice a week for a short time. I am currently a part-time teacher’s assistant twice a week. The days I am at work, I get an hour break where I go and attend the pet and make sure they are ok until I get home in the evening. I have two small dogs of my own. They tend to be yappy which is why I prefer housesitting for the comfort of the other pet. When I housesit I like to stay in communication with the pet parents and update them throughout the day by sending pictures or updates.

“Ryan has been such a huge blessing. We walk our neighbor's dog regularly but since I was traveling for two weeks, we asked our neighbor if we could hire a dog walker for that time. Ryan not only managed a big strong dog but willingly accepted the dog's owner walking with him. She has some medical challenges that make it hard for her to walk her dog but she still wants the exercise. He was always early as well as patient, kind and respectful. We will definitely use him again.”

Yutong Jason S. .. the S is for Saint .. I was attending the Power to the People festival in Columbia, MD on Oct 3, 2026 .. i had to find a dog walker that morning to handle my 15 mo old German Shepherd puppy staying w/me in the Staybridge Suites while I attended the festival .. Jason responded to my request in a matter of minutes .. he had no hesitation in dealing w/the front desk for access to the room .. he covered both 3PM & 7PM walks, feeding & sent status reports so that i could enjoy the festival. I am so grateful to this young man for his prompt and professional service. You'd be lucky to get him.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in MacGills Common is $20 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $30 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.

As of October 2026, there are 15,886 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across MacGills Common. 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 MacGills Common. 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 , 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 MacGills Common 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in MacGills Common. On Rover:

  • 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
