About: While I'm more used to cats, I do also love dogs. Have a dog with separation anxiety? I can keep them company for a while! I will be working part-time Monday-Friday from 2 pm to 6 pm during the school year (September-Early June). I will be available to watch your pets from 9:30 am-1:30 pm on those days (despite what options this site gave). If I am unable to watch a pet at any time, I will let you know ahead of time by at least a few days. I owned a cat, Higgins, who was a big lovebug and fairly food motivated. I was in charge of feeding him breakfast and dinner since we rescued him in 2015, along with scooping his litterbox. He also needed nightly medication for some stomach issues, so I have experience giving pills. I can feed your pet, clean up after them whether they have a set schedule or not, and provide medication if necessary.

Ashlee was absolutely fantastic. She was professional and clearly cared about my dog. Communication was great from start to finish, and I felt completely confident knowing my dog was in good hands. It’s obvious she takes her work seriously and goes above and beyond. I’ll definitely be booking with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality care.

About: Since the summer after my freshman year of high school, I’ve provided dog-walking, boarding, and house sitting services to neighbors in my small town. It’s something I’ve really enjoyed, so I’ve decided to carry that passion with me into college. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, from energetic puppies to seniors, and I’ve had dogs my entire life, which has given me a lot of experience and confidence in caring for them! My dog, Ivy, has a chronic illness, so I am well versed with medication administration or special requests. I am currently an undergrad nursing student at UofM, so I know a thing or two about medication from that as well. Thank you so much for your interest — I look forward to spending time with your fur baby! I currently have a part time job for the summer, but otherwise keep my schedule free. I take care of my own dog everyday and provide lots of exercise and walks. I always make safety, trust, and a positive environment my top priorities when caring for pets. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and temperaments, so I take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs and personality. I make sure they’re always secure on walks, use proper equipment, and stay aware of their surroundings to avoid any potential hazards.

About: I’ve worked professionally as a horse trainer, wildlife rehabilitator, zookeeper, animal cruelty investigator and farm animal sanctuary manager. As of 2026 I now offer sitting and boarding for dogs and cats in my home or yours. In my home, your dog or cat would have the space exclusively to themselves as there are no other animals or kids in the house. I can also service horse farms including feeding, cleaning and overnight stays. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone else, and I don't take that lightly. I guarantee that your animals will feel safe and comfortable with me, and you'll rest easy knowing they're in experienced hands. I look forward to working with you! I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, outdoor time in my fenced yard, and companionship without long absences. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable experience based on each pet’s personality and needs. In my home, dogs have a peaceful environment and access to my fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. Because I work mostly from home and don’t have other animals right now, I’m able to give them consistent attention, companionship, and a relaxed setting. For cats, I have a private bedroom available for those who may feel uneasy at first or need their own space. The room includes a cat tower, cozy cubbies, and a full bed with soft blankets arranged into comfortable nesting spots. This gives them a quiet place to decompress and adjust at their own pace, while still receiving attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal feeding, exercise, and care routine so things feel familiar and low stress. I’m respectful of both the pet and the home, and I’m attentive to details like energy level, mood, and overall wellbeing. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is comfortable and doing well.

About: I will love and care for your furry friends as I do my own. I've owned dogs my whole life and my family would say it's a passion I've never fulfilled (but will be thanks to rover!) I've owned all size breeds so teacup or a small horse, I've got you covered! I am a Navy Veteran and current full-time student at the University of Michigan and my husband works from home 100% of the time. Your pups will never be left unsupervised. We have two other dogs in the home who love having guests and making new friends. Feedings can take place whenever you deem necessary for you! We have a ton of treats (SCHNACKS) ready to spoil and pamper your puppers as we do our own. I live on 7 acres of land in a private community, and have approximately 1 acre of fenced in yard directly off the back of the house. Your friends will be able to take plenty of potty breaks and nice tranquil walks in the "countryside". They will be kenneled at night (around 11p.m.) in a dark, empty room in a padded kennel. (I know it sounds depressing but is actually super relaxing for doggos!). Doggie bath services are also negotiable.

About: I absolutely adore all animals, especially dogs! I have been caring for and house sitting dogs of all breeds since I was 15 years old. Throughout my experience, I have cared for both puppies and senior dogs making sure to adapt to each dog's unique personality and needs. I have grown up and lived with dogs my entire life, so I understand the importance of providing them with love, attention, and exercise. I am highly attentive, reliable, and committed to satisfying both the pet’s and owner’s needs. I am currently a student; however, I have a very flexible schedule, and can tailor my schedule towards the needs of my clients. I can work weekends. I am a focused and hard worker and will make sure your pet is cared for to the best of my ability. I love all animals and want to make sure that their needs are met through exercise, love, and care.

About: I have been around dogs and pets since I was very young. We had a family dog I helped take care of and all three of my siblings have had either a dog or cat that I would pet sit. My roommate also currently owns a puppy that I help out with as well. I am currently a full time student at GVSU and I have a part time job but it is very flexible. I can always make scheduling work as long as we communicate! I do not board other dogs very often unless it is dire. But trust and safely will depend on where you live and what you and your pet are comfortable with.

About: Hello! My name is Alexis and I am a GVSU Alumni. I was also on the track and field team so I love to run and be outside! I do well with all different types of breeds and would treat your pet as my own (I have a goldendoodle back at home named Bentley).

I would love to give my love and affection to your pet(s) and make sure to go above and beyond for them! They will definitely be spoiled and have lot of attention that they deserve! I would be so happy to have your to watch and walk! I work a hybrid schedule for work so I am able to work from home! I have a great schedule with my own as we go out multiple times a day and even go on 30 mins walks during my lunch time. I have a dog of my own who loves guests and plenty of space to play and go in walks outside! If needing their own space I have multiple rooms or if needed- crate to let them wind down.

About: Welcome to the care of Mariana and Denys! 🐾 Caring for animals has been a huge part of our lives for as long as we can remember. Together, we have over 20 years of combined experience caring for dogs/pets, and we truly treat every pet like family. We both work from home, so your pets are never left alone and always have someone around to watch over them, play with them, and give them affection throughout the day. We have a nice big yard where dogs can safely run, play, and burn off energy, and we make sure every pet gets the attention they need based on their personality and routine. We also have experience caring for pets who need a little extra support, including administering medication, caring for senior pets, puppies, and pets that aren’t fully potty trained. Mariana is CPR certified, giving you added peace of mind when it comes to your pet’s safety and well-being. We’re both originally from Europe and can’t wait to meet your pups. We know how important it is to feel connected while you’re away, so we always send plenty of updates, photos, and videos to help give you peace of mind. Mariana has been taking care of animals since she was 10 years old. Growing up in Ukraine, she was the person friends and neighbors trusted with their pets. Denys has about 14 years of pet-sitting experience and loves giving treats and going on morning walks with your pups. Together, we’re patient, attentive, and truly love making pets feel safe, happy, and at home. No matter the size, age, or personality, we do our best to make every pet feel important, comfortable, and cared for like they’re our own. We’re so excited to welcome your furry family members into our home. 🐶🐱💙 Our daily schedule is very flexible since we both work from home. This allows us to stick closely to your dog’s routine, including regular walks, feeding times, play breaks, and rest. We provide a calm, clean, and secure home environment where dogs are carefully supervised and treated with patience and respect. We follow your instructions closely, maintain routines, and take every precaution to make sure each pup feels safe, relaxed, and truly at home while in our care.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Manchester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Manchester on Rover is $32.19 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 1,321 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Manchester. 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 Manchester. 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 Manchester.

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 Manchester. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 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.
