About: A long time mid-30s pet parent who recently retired from the corporate world to pursue textile art. Since I’m now working from home, I have a flexible schedule to help out neighbors with their furry family. I currently have two large dogs and three cats, and have experience managing: - busy feeding times and special routines - medication (including injectables) - surgery recovery - walking reactive pups I also have experience caring for and cleaning up after guinea pigs and hamsters, fish and crawly friends. I am a go-to for pet & house sitting for friends and family and so excited to become best friends with yours! My schedule is totally flexible. When I was working long hours and traveling for work, I found it was so hard to find a sitter who was able to pop in irregularly or on short notice. I’m hoping to be that for you. With 5 pets in my own home, I won’t be able to board at my house. I have two large dogs (Aussie and Cattle Dog mixes) and three cats ranging from new kitten to over 15 years old! I have gone through surgeries, managed medications, and reduced reactivity on walks.
“Hope took amazing care of our golden retriever while we were out of town for the week. She was flexible with her schedule and set up early morning walks to avoid the summer heat. Hope also had great recommendations to help with walks as well. We would 100% recommend Hope for any of your pet sitting needs! She’s the best!!”
About: If I could rescue all the animals and take them home, I would! I'm all about tail wags, butt wiggles, kisses, and snuggles. LOTS of snuggles! I'm available daily for dog walks or check-ins, including holidays, and I'm happy to work with your schedule. I have experience in administering insulin and other types of medical needs that are vet-approved by you. Every pet is different, so I work with what's best for them. I make sure to keep things familiar and as stress-free as possible. Keeping to their regular routine is especially important. They will miss their hoomans, but I promise to spoil them rotten while you're away!
“Laura is very helpful, dependable and thoughtful. Laura has been helping me out while I have been stuck traveling from flight delays....with a couple of extra visits for my pup. I cannot be more grateful to Laura for her extra help at the last minute.”
“Chris and Sam were great with our dogs and professional! They were super flexible when it was too hot for the dogs to walk and had excellent communication throughout. I loved getting a video of the dogs mid-walk. We will be booking them for more dog walks and housesitting in the future!”
“Hadiyah was great with Peanut. Peanut seemed to get along with her really well, and it was clear she was very comfortable in her care. Communication was great, and we appreciated the updates while we were away. We’d be happy to book with her again!”
About: I love dogs and cats and have some extra time so I couldn’t think of a better way to fill it. I have previous experience working as a dog walker. I’ve had dogs and cats as pets and feel comfortable with all sizes. I’m always the go to dog sitter for my friends and I really enjoy it. I think it’s really fun to get to know others dog personalities. I have my own transportation and am reliable. I really value good communication and will strive to be as available as I can. I’m super over protective of my pets and will definetly extend that with yours so you can feel comfortable when leaving your met with me. I’ve never met a dog I didn’t get along with! My schedule is lighter this year at work so I can be available evenings, nights and weekends mostly. Can also accommodate early mornings if needed. I have experience with dogs in crates and am comfortable using different ones. I take safety very seriously and would treat your pet as my own.
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life! I love dogs in all sizes and have the most experience with chihuahuas from puppies to much older puppies. I love going for walks and going places with doggies but I’m also not opposed to a leisurely stroll or hanging out on the couch! Currently I am waiting to start my full time position so I have lots of availability and can start immediately! I am doing this because I love animals and I need a little extra cash to get me by! I am willing to go for walks and do drop ins. I have recently been house sitting for family members with multiple dogs and I have taken those dogs on walks, to the vet, and even to camp. We play and hang out and I spend the night with them!
“Cliff did a great job with Clarence! He took the time to ask questions to better understand Clarence’s temperament and needs. He was friendly and reliable, and we’re looking forward to working with him again.”
“Jessica has been super reliable and it was always a relief to know my dog would be in good hands when i was at work. She has good judgment about when to cut walks short due to weather, especially as my dog got older.”
“Liz is dependable, responsible, and kind, I highly recommend hiring her! She walks our 8 year old dog and gives her medicine on week days. She is easy to contact and flexible for changes in our schedule. Our dog loves Liz, she has a very calm and easygoing presence.”
About: I have been taking care of friends and family’s dogs for years and simply can’t get enough. I am a currently university. While not at college I live with Baxter my yellow lab, and three cats Binx, Goose, and Milo. I work as a Veterinary Assistant during the summers.I have first hand experience with topical, oral, and aural medication as needed. I am currently a university student. I have the most availability on weekends. I’m available daily during weekdays in the morning and in the evening. I like to start slow especially with the more shy pets. From that point I may use treats or some time for slow sniffing. Once I’ve built a trust with your pet I find it helpful for the dog to watch you pass their leash to me as a passing or trust. For walks the dogs are always leashed. I offer both short and long walks and will match the pace that best suits your pet from slow sniffing filled walks to fast paced trots. I am available for both in home visits and overnight stays, feedings, bathroom breaks, and medication administration as needed.
About: I’ve had a lot of past experience dog and cat sitting for family friends at a younger age, as well as taking care of my own pets! I’ve always loved animals and would do everything in my power to make sure you AND your animal have a great experience! 🩷 I am a full time culinary student so I am usually busy in the mornings! But I am only taking online classes this summer so I am free most days. I’ve had cats ever since I was a little girl! My cat Casper has been with me for almost 8 whole years and I’ve had Bigby for 6 months! I just absolutely love playing with animals and making sure they are as happy as they can possibly be. All my animals are spoiled little babies and I’ll do just the same for yours :)
About: I have been caring for dogs most of my life and I’d like to bring that joy to my family too. I only take 1 extra dog at a time (or two if they are pet siblings). I work from home so your furry friend will hang out with me and Molly (our dog) most of the day. They will get to go play in our fenced back yard at will. I take walks during the day too to get some fresh air and the dogs can have some new smells. ***Crate trained dogs only. This is for when I’m away, but I’m home most of the day. *** I work from home and my dog hangs out with me all day - and so can yours! We’d love to have another friend to play with. We have a fenced yard and we like to take walks in the neighborhood. We have many walking paths and parks nearby to explore with our new furry friends.
About: I’m a life time dog owner, lover and rescuer. I have experience with all animals from puppies to senior dogs. Big or small I love them all! I’m an expert at senior care, maintaining routines, administering medicine and giving all the attention and belly rubs. With more active dogs I enjoy being able to take them on longer walks and explore new areas to keep them interested in the work around. I’m a full time college student, I am 3/4 remote learning on my lap-top so I have open availability all days except for class t/th 9am-12pm. I am comfortable with over nights and can handle long term stays. With dog walking and check ins I am extremely flexible to everyone’s schedule I follow any instructions provided first when caring for anyone’s dogs. As a routine I change to fresh water immediately when stopping in or first thing in the morning and following the feeding routine. I want to try to make the dog as comfortable as possible and then get into moving around and getting physical activity for the day!
“Jamie has been walking my dog for a few years now and it’s great to know I can count on him whenever I go out of town. He is great with my cat as well!”
“Haley was great with my dog! She asked great questions to get to know her beforehand and was very knowledgeable about bigger dogs. I will definitely have her come back!”
“Alex has walked our dog a couple of times. He is always right on time and takes good care of our dog on the walks. He sends updates and photos. Definitely recommend him to anyone needing walks!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Maplewood
Mallory was great and most importantly, my dog thought so too! We were visiting New Orleans from out of town and a bit leary about leaving our boxer in a strange place with strange people. Mallory responded quickly to my somewhat last minute request for a 3 day dog walking booking during jazz fest. She even came for a pre-visit meet and greet. She sent us photos and updates of her visits, and offered flexibility on her times. This is my first time using Rover and Mallory made it an amazing experience. I would absolutely call her again and again and again! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 5/5 PAW Rating!
Devon is terrific! She has been walking my 3 goldens regularly for over a year and a half. My pups love her. She genuinely cares about their health and well being. She is honest and always quick to let me know if an issue arises with my dogs. I highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Maplewood is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 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 2,567 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Maplewood. 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 Maplewood. 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 Maplewood 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 Maplewood. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
