I highly recommend Vanessa. We had an emergency situation and Vanessa immediately responded to our request for a dog walker and was to our house within 30 minutes. She kindly sent us the most adorable pictures of her with our dog. He clearly enjoyed his time with her. She was a lifesaver and so kind to our dog!!

Naedra helped us out last minute. She was super easy to communicate with. She took great care of our puppy, taking him on two walks each day. She sent pictures and filled us in on everything. We really appreciated her helping us and will definitely use her again!

About: Most of my pet care experience started January 2025 with the rescue of my pit-mix BB. She was the longest resident at the shelter, and just needed love and a chance. She has returned my fiance and I's love over and over. I grew up with family pets and outdoor cats, and knew the basics of animal care. I wanted a stable life to give any pet the life they deserve! I am grateful for BB and for the village that helps care for her. I hope to be a part of your pets' village! I am currently transitioning between careers, and have the extra time to dedicate to the extra furry ones! Quality time is deeply important to me, and I hope to build bonds on this journey. Without a fenced yard for BB to run around, my fiance and I take turns walking her around our neighborhood circuit. I typically take the morning and he takes the evening. We take extra walks for exercise and socializing, and book SniffSpots to let her run loose! BB has a crate that she sometimes opts to rest in, but 99% of the time she is napping at our feet.

We had a great experience with Elizabeth. She showed up exactly on time and took things slow when Charlie was a little nervous at first. Her calm, gentle approach helped him settle in quickly, and he ended up happily trotting along on their walk. Elizabeth clearly cares about dogs and knows how to make them comfortable—would absolutely book her again!

Zachary was fantastic. We took a trip over Christmas break and he took the time to work with our dog who can be shy with strangers, he even brought his dog along with him so he had a friend to play and walk with. I highly recommend him will definitely use him again in the future!

He even managed to accommodate an extension ensuring we had a great time while we were away. We will DEFINITELY work with him again.

About: I have grown up with animals in the house all my life, and have experience taking care of dogs, cats, and some types of small rodents. I adore animals and love spending plenty of quality time with them. I am available to drop-in and visit, walk, or stay with animals as per my schedule on Rover. If in doubt, you can always contact me personally. I can offer a safe and enriching environment for your animal(s) through playtime, walks, and cuddling. I value all animals' space and comfort-levels, and will adjust to their needs based on how they react to my presence.

About: I am a dog lover and have been caring for pets for the majority of my life. I have three dogs of my own; two 11-year-olds and one energetic, almost 2 year-old. Caring for dogs and all animals throughout my life has given me experience with both senior dog care and the exercise and attention younger dogs need. I am comfortable and confident in my dog-walking, feeding schedules, playtime, and basic grooming abilities. Most importantly, I always ensure the pet is happy, healthy, and comfortable. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attention-to-detail when it comes to pets, especially senior ones. I love playing with pets, and have fun engaging with high energy dogs. Every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I will treat your pets with the same love, attention, and care as I do with my own. I am currently a college student home for summer break working two part-time jobs. I work at Merriweather Post Pavilion, which has taught me strong customer service, communication, and time-management skills. My other position involves working with neurodivergent children, which has helped me further my skills of patience, responsibility, adaptability, and the importance of understanding individual's unique needs. Pet care is already part of my daily routine. My pet and work experiences have helped me become more dependable, organized, and attentive, which I carry with me to every pet I care for. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, or companionship, I am committed to providing safe, loving, and reliable care. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and consistency. I understand that pets are most comfortable in their normal routine, so I make it a point to follow all care instructions closely, whether this is feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, or any special needs. I always keep dogs securely leashed, pay attention to their surroundings, and make sure they have plenty of food, water, and attention. I also understand the importance of trust when entering someone's home. I am always respectful of client's property, keep doors and gates secure, and provide timely updates to owners so they feel confident in their pets safety and well-being. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in responsible hands.

About: I’ve trained police dogs when I was young and have had dogs around me since I was born. I have cared for animals my whole life. I work part time so I have plenty of opportunity to spend time with your pet! My schedule is flexible and I even work from home some days. I can accommodate your pet based on their needs. I have one cat that is very friendly to other animals and grew up with dogs and cats around.

Michelle was great! My dog is older & has some health issues. Michelle scheduled a meet & greet with us which boosted my comfort-level knowing my dog was relaxed & comfortable with her. Michelle is very kind & professional. She had a great interaction with my dog, took plenty of pics during the walk (let's face it, we love pics when we can't be with our pups), and she provided a detailed summary of how my dog was on the walk. We were definitely lucky to find Michelle on Rover & hope to schedule more pup-walks in the future! Thanks Michelle.

Kim is amazing. She is calm, kind, empathetic and my dog is truly in love with her. Shes also always on time and extremely responsive via the app. I was super nervous about finding a dog sitter/walker after some bad experiences with our last dog and feel truly relieved to have someone we can rely on to treat our dog like her own. If she ever stops walking dogs, I’m not sure what we’ll do!

FAQs for Dog Walking - MacGills Common

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in MacGills Common on Rover is $19.98 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 16,275 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 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 MacGills Common.

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 MacGills Common. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 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.
