About: I’ve have two years of professional experience with providing care for dogs and cats, though I have lots of experience with taking care of animals, since I have a senior dog and a two year old cat! Ihave done over 300 services as a pet caregiver on another app, I can provide a link to my profile! I’m currently have a lot of free time but I am attending college a GMU only doing online classes this semester so my schedule is very flexible! I also usually always bring my sister with me on any service I do and she always helps out. I also want to let pet parents know that if your pet(s), specifically larger dogs, are overly reactive that I can not provide services for you because of the safety of myself and the dog, please just be honest about how your dog(s) responds to caregivers, I always try my best to provide 110% effort in all my services and I can’t do when I don’t know what can tigger your pet, I had a bad experience during a sitting and pet parent told me there dog was very well-behaved and then when sitting the dog kept grabbing my leg, (was around the same height as me when he stood up) and would not let go and didn’t listening to any commands the pet parent said he listened to and kept biting through my clothes and my hands. It was a very scary experience because I was told something else but one bad experience doesn’t compare to all the good dogs I have walked! I have walked large dogs and I have never had any issues with them and are usually always the sweetest pups to walk and are very gentle on their leashes, and are always excited to go on walks by jumping on me (which I never mind) or licking! I live in a dog friendly neighborhood and live near a walking trail. I have a family dog and cat who are both friendly to all animals. They are both low maintenance and always enjoy meeting new animals, they have been around birds and guinea pigs as well! I do prefer sitting in the pet parent’s home just mainly because the pets are most comfortable at their home and I don’t do overnight stays just because I also have animals that need my attention. I love when pet parents provide detail instructions about their expectations and daily tasks of their pets!

About: I have had animals my entire life, and currently live with two dogs and two cats! I also have experience with horses if anyone has farm needs. A majority of all our family pets have been rescue animals. I have experience working with special needs of those pups and cats that have trauma and other issues to over come after being rescued. From young to old I have raised many animals. My equine experience comes from a learning facility in Great Falls. All of the horses were seniors with special care requirements and medications. I am capable and confident in caring for any animal once I get to know them. I have a full time job with weekends off generally. I would be available in the evenings or weekends to help with care right now. I would respect any guidelines that the home owner has with respect to the care of their pet. I am flexible and adaptable to the needs of your pet.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced pet caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with dogs and 1 year of experience caring for cats. Animals have been a central part of my life, and I truly enjoy building trust with each pet I care for. For the past 3 years, I’ve also been an active foster with Homeward Trails Animal Rescue, caring for dogs in need of temporary homes, and I’ve recently begun fostering cats as well. Through fostering, I’ve gained extensive hands-on experience with animals of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’ve cared for puppies through senior dogs (up to 15 years old), including pets recovering from illness, surgery, and ongoing medical conditions. I’m comfortable administering medications, following specific care instructions, and providing calm, attentive support to pets who need a little extra care and patience. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or older and needs a gentler routine, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I treat every animal like they’re my own and prioritize communication so you always feel confident while you’re away. Pet care is a consistent and natural part of my weekly routine. I currently foster dogs through Homeward Trails Animal Rescue and also care for foster cats, so my days already revolve around feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, training reinforcement, and monitoring overall health and behavior. I’m used to structuring my day around animal needs, including early mornings and flexible check-ins throughout the day. Because I’ve cared for pets with a wide range of needs—from energetic puppies to senior dogs and animals recovering from illness or surgery—I’m comfortable adjusting my schedule to provide reliable, attentive care when needed. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and structured environment for every pet in my care. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly space that is clean, supervised, and free of hazards, with routines that help animals feel secure and comfortable. I follow each pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, and rest time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines and aim to minimize disruption. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medication needs, training guidelines, and any behavioral notes. I also make sure doors, gates, and crates are secured and that pets are always supervised during care. Because of my experience fostering through Homeward Trails Animal Rescue, I’m very comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including anxious animals, seniors, and pets recovering from medical issues. My goal is always to provide consistent, attentive care so pets feel safe and owners feel at ease while they’re away.

About: In the midst of my bustling life as a nursing student and mother, animals have been my constant companions. My childhood was enriched by the presence of various furry friends, fostering a deep connection that has only grown stronger over the years. Now, as a dedicated caregiver, my goal is to extend that love and warmth to your cherished pets. My journey with animals spans decades, reflecting a profound understanding of their needs. From the lively energy of puppies to the gentle care required for seniors, I've encountered and embraced every aspect of pet care. Integrating pet care seamlessly into my daily routine is not just a commitment but a joy. My schedule revolves around creating a nurturing environment for your pets. Whether it's a morning walk, playtime in the afternoon, or a cozy bedtime routine, rest assured that your pets will receive consistent, personalized attention. When it comes to caring for pets, safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are non-negotiable. Whether your pets stay with me or I visit your home, rest assured that they will be surrounded by love and familiarity. My experience as a nursing student translates into a keen eye for their health and well-being, while my role as a mom ensures a nurturing and secure atmosphere.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was in high school, so I have over 10 years of experience pet sitting and caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve always genuinely loved being around animals and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, keeping up with routines, and of course giving plenty of attention and cuddles! I treat every dog I care for like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I work remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention and cuddles. Since I’m home most of the day, your pet will have lots of company and I can easily adjust my schedule to accommodate their normal routine and needs. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets can feel right at home. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely enjoy plenty of outdoor time, play, and potty breaks throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, sleeping, and daily routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable while they’re away from home. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles!

About: We’re a pack of four - two dogs and two humans - and we’re always excited to welcome canine guests! Our 80 lb supermutt, Loki, and 60 lb pitty, Ginny, love visitors of all kinds (though so far, only humans and canines have been officially approved 😉). Our home is very dog-friendly, with plenty of toys and space to play including a fenced yard in the back. Your dog will be comfortable here, and we’re happy to accommodate any special needs to make their stay as smooth and enjoyable as possible. We offer overnight stays and only accept dogs who are house-trained. For everyone’s safety, guest dogs must be spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and friendly with other dogs. We can’t wait to meet your pup! 🐾 We usually walk outside in the neighborhood or up by the Cougar school in the wooded area 2 times a day. Dogs are not alone for more than 2-3 hours per day. We have a large fenced yard that is accessible from the deck/kitchen, locked and unless your dog is a real athlete that can jump a 6ft fence, very safe for them to hang. The finished basement level is also available for dog play in a pack or individually. Also comes in handy to separate any nervous dogs, as needed.

About: Growing up, I’ve been surrounded by a variety of pets in our home – hamsters, turtles, guinea pigs, and our family dog. I was primarily responsible for our pets and also have experience with other dogs entrusted to me by close family friends. You can be assured that I will provide your pet with attentive, reliable care while you enjoy your time away. As of now, my schedule is quite flexible since I am back home for the summer months. This allows me to have plenty of time to shower your dog with lots of love! We live in a townhouse with a small, enclosed yard. Our home is pet friendly and there are small parks nearby where your dog could enjoy.

About: I have been pet sitting on and off since I was 12. I love animals of all kinds and my husband is a veterinarian, so I get to hear about animals on a daily basis and I want to put some of that knowledge to use. I currently work full-time remotely, so I am free all during the day to walk dogs or to house/dog sit, as long as there is WiFi, I can work anywhere! I am happy to dog walk or dog/house sit! Whatever is most convenient for you, I am willing to make it work! Once I get to know your pet, I know we’ll be best friends!

We took a long break of several months from Rover, and I was so happy to see that Deitra & David could fit some walks in for Bailey. He was elated to see them again, and is such a satisfied little guy after his walks. I have no worries for Bailey when he's with them, and hope they continue to be available. Thank you so much Deitra & David!

Emily was absolutely wonderful with Juno. She was always incredibly attentive, caring, dependable, and genuinely seemed to care about her well-being. Juno passed away a few weeks ago, and looking back, I’m especially grateful knowing that when I couldn’t be there, she was in the hands of someone who treated her with so much kindness and compassion. It was obvious that Emily didn’t simply see taking care of Juno as a job, she truly cared about her. That meant more to me than I can adequately put into words, particularly as Juno got older and needed a little extra attention and patience. I would recommend Emily without hesitation to anyone looking for someone they can trust with a pet they love. I’ll always be grateful for the care, kindness, and affection she showed Juno.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Manassas Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Manassas Park is $20 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $31 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 14,511 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Manassas Park. 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 Manassas Park. 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 Manassas Park 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 Manassas Park. 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.
