“We ended up having to book last minute and Emma came through for us and our babies! She set up a meet and greet with us to make sure our dogs got a chance to meet her prior to our trip. She kept us updated daily and sent photos as well! We will definitely will be booking again in the future! She is great and we highly recommend!”

“Izzy was a warm and consummate professional and kept me updated about my dogs every time she came. She was great with them and even found a creative way to administer one of them their medication when he wasn’t taking it. I really appreciate hwr help keeping my puppies taken care of over the new year and would instantly hire her again.”

I've helped with birthing puppies, trained them, and seen them through their senior years. I'm available to care for your dogs 7 days a week.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and have over 21 years of hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m especially experienced with senior pets and understand the extra patience, attention, and care they need to feel comfortable and safe. Whether it’s walks, feeding, medications, playtime, or just keeping your pets company while you’re away, I treat every animal like family. I’m dependable, attentive, and truly love caring for animals! I’m a commercial real estate agent, so I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day! Caring for animals is honestly what keeps me from adopting even more of them myself. I truly love spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I care for every pet like they’re part of my own family. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their routines consistent. I pay close attention to cleanliness, feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and giving lots of affection, cuddles, and playtime along the way!

About: I'm so excited to welcome, play with and care for your furry love. Please read the following: I am accessible by phone all the time, and I love taking pictures, so you can expect to get lots of updates of how your dog is doing! Your dog’s stay will not overlap with other dogs so your dog will receive the care and attention he or she deserves! - DAYCARE: The neighborhood is very pet friendly. Doggy bags nearby. - WALKS: Can personally walk your dog up to 2 miles. We stay active! Give your dog the walk he/she deserves while you're away at work or on vacation. - DOGGY BAGS / DOGGY BOWLS: Please provide the necessary items your dog needs while away. It's a good idea to reserve dates as soon as you know you need me! We can schedule a time to meet briefly before the first stay so we can discuss details and get you familiar with my home. In your booking request, please include your drop off and pick up times. Check out my rate and time guidelines above. I'm very flexible on times with a couple exceptions, which can be discussed. Please send your dog with their food (either pre-portioned or with a measuring scoop/cup), their treats, leash and collar and any other items such as toys. If your dog is crate trained, please bring that too. Please message me for any questions. I'm so excited to get to know you and looking forward to sitting your furry one. Weekly routine includes waking up, several walks during the day, constant updates to clients and ensuring there's a happy exciting day every day. The day varies as the client or pet! Pets are spoken to, walked, and given proper attention. For previous clients during week long stays, they were played with, fed and given baths in addition to constant updates!

About: I will take care of any dog from small to large so bring it on! I owned a black lab mix growing up and that black ball of lightning lived the dream. Let's just say my background as a college baseball player worked perfectly into her fetching routine. You will get a high class, energetic, and caring sitter if you choose me. Experience includes Weimaraners, Daschund, Black Lab, Australian shepherd, Pomeranian, Bull Terrier, and a Boston Terrier. The only downfall of your dog being with me is they will never want to leave. You up for the risk? I know you are so pick up that phone and call me. I work remote so I am pretty flexible. I currently own a Pomeranian and Australian shepherd. Love dogs and taking care of them. I trained my own dogs. Pomeranians a rescue and the Australian was a puppy when I got them. I can handle all sizes and personalities. I care for my dogs by taking them outside at least 3x a day. Dogs eat at the same time. I understand boundaries between dogs so I make sure to keep watch. I also operated a dog training service when I lived in Daytona for basic commands so positive reinforcement with my dogs work best.

About: I have had and taken care of dogs since I was little and have always had a dog. I love to volunteer at shelters and help too! I’ve always had a special place in my heart for furry angels. I’ll also send cute pics! :) I work from home so I can take your pup outside before work, at lunch, and after work. Also the weekends if you go away I can take care of doggies! Since I work from home I can come by your place to walk the pups when needed. 😊 I will make sure all instructions are followed and reach out if I have questions and give proactive updates! :)

About: Beginning in childhood, I’ve had several dog breeds (over 20!) that I’ve been tasked to take care of, play with, keep healthy and whose needs I’ve grown to pay attention to and understand. I adore animals and I approach them gently and mindfully, always considering what support will help prolong their lifespan and keep them happy, yet trained and behaved. My friends and family often call on me to either keep their pets company, train or housesit them, and I’m always more than happy to spend time with their animals. I firmly believe pets are not toys, and much more like our own kids, deserving of care, compassion, joy and attention. I have 17+ years experience taking care of and loving French bulldogs and pugs, who notoriously require extra responsibility, attention and instruction, as they can be stubborn and prone to health and breathing issues (often brought on by heat). I have cared for senior dogs who deserve nothing but love towards the end of their lives, and also puppies who need time spent on training and feeling safe, and lots of play and activity to stimulate their growing minds. I am a graduate student, with flexible availability between Saturday to Tuesday, during my off days, when I’ll be studying from home, often lounging and relaxing in my space. Having a pet to look after, feed and care for would not only be a very welcomed time commitment, but would make my space feel even more homely and bring me joy. I have enough time to play with dogs, pay attention to their unique needs and keep them active and joyful, or to simply accompany them while they rest and rejuvenate. I have a spacious apartment and a shaded dog park within my apartment community, as well as a dog wash corner next to the park - helpful during hot days in Florida. I am extremely mindful towards any pet staying with me, and provide them with a comfortable, safe and cooled space, in which I am committed to staying aware of their habits, likes and dislikes, and learning to understand their groove. There are several areas for them to use the bathroom outside, take a walk within the apartment community, as well as designated pee pads inside the apartment. I am happy to be in touch with the clients as often as needed, to help them feel at ease about letting their little one stay with someone new. I care about building trust with a dog, and taking the time to grow our bond, so they can be at ease in their surroundings and reduce any anxiety from a new environment.

About: As someone who has had anywhere from 12 to 3 dogs their whole life, I have always had a passion for pet care! I have raised puppies as well so I am more than qualified to watch your newborns! I love and appreciate all dogs and can’t wait to meet yours! I take care of my three poodles at home, so pet care is a constant part of my life and I can’t wait to add your pets into my routine! I always ensure pets are in a safe, clean environment with plenty of water, attention, and supervision. I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors secure, and use leashes or crates as requested to maintain safety and trust.

Brenda and Dwain seriously took the best care of our dog and cat during our trip and even came back on sudden notice to walk our pup when our flight was delayed. Their updates and pictures made our day and eased our minds. I had zero concerns the entire time we were away. Honestly, I felt like our pets were on their own mini vacay with the walks, attention, and endless love they got. 😂 10000% would recommend them to anyone.

Christi has been an absolute blessing for both me and my dog. As the owner of a senior dog, finding someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely caring is incredibly important, and Christi exceeds every expectation. She is always punctual, communicates wonderfully, and keeps me updated, which gives me complete peace of mind. What I appreciate most is the love and compassion she shows my dog. She cares for him as if he were her own, paying close attention to his needs and making sure he is comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Senior dogs require extra patience and understanding, and Christi provides both in abundance. It is clear that she truly loves animals and takes pride in the care she provides. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found someone I can trust so completely with my beloved companion. I wholeheartedly recommend Christi to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and exceptional pet sitter. She is simply amazing! 🐾❤️

FAQs for Dog Walking - Maitland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Maitland is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 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.

As of November 2026, there are 5,379 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Maitland. 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 Maitland. 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 Maitland 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 Maitland. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
