About: I once fostered a very cute polydatcyl cat named Cleo and enjoyed every moment of having a fur friend around. I did not mind at all the responsibilities involved in her care and wellbeing. It only lasted for a year but I am sure Cleo remembers/misses me as much as I miss her. I respect all forms of life and I aspire to gain trust and experience in my community. I currently have full time availability. I do have extensive professional background working in leadership roles so I am very responsible and have always prioritized humanity over production. I also enjoy cooking in my free time. While in a client's home, I am very observant of hazards and potential causes for problems. My time will be spent fully attentative to the unique care instructions left by the pets family and also will remain acutely aware of the pets wellbeing for the entire duration of my stay. I have foundational knowledge in cat and dog behavior as well as an understanding of appropriate first aid if ever needed.

About: I’ve had dogs in my household since I was 5, meaning I’m skilled in taking care of dogs and am ready for anything they might need. I’ve dogs at for multiple neighbors of the years, and many of those dogs have been old dogs with specific instructions to keep them healthy. I’ve done multiple weeks of overnight care for dogs as well as simple daycare or dog walks for people that need help. I’m currently studying to become a vet and I would love to have the chance to get to know your furry companion! I am open to help out any day of the week as needed. I have a part-time job with schedule hours that change each week, but none of those hours include nighttime’s. I am willing to take your pet even last minute if I am capable. In my home, I make sure to let the dog out first thing in the morning and right before bed to allow them to use the bathroom as needed. In my household I take my dog for a walk around 9 every morning and 5 every night, then feeding him at 6pm. Other food given to him includes a treat in the morning and a couple in the afternoon that I put in his bowl. In between those times, I will spend time with my dog either sitting on the couch together watching tv or playing games.

About: After 5 successful years of owning and operating a doggy daycare and boarding business in Kansas, I’ve transitioned into a major new life chapter! I am currently a dual-degree graduate student at the University of Delaware, dedicated to my studies until December 2027. While I'm no longer running my business, my deep 5-year background in understanding dog behavior is a core part of who I am. I still hold a massive passion for dogs of all kinds—from the dedicated couch potatoes to the high-energy athletes! 🐶✨ Since I am currently focusing entirely on my graduate program at the University of Delaware, I enjoy a highly adaptable schedule. This flexibility makes it easy for me to fit into your pet's established routine, offering reliable drop-ins, daytime care, and consistent check-ups tailored to your fur baby's needs. I need full transparency of the dogs life from behavior, house train, medical history, feeding schedule, exercise routine via walking, playing etc. in addition to what training works for the dogs will help me understand the dogs better.

About: I’ve had my own dog for years and have also cared for dogs belonging to family and friends, giving me experience with a variety of ages, personalities, and routines. I’ve cared for senior dogs as well as dogs with special needs, strict medication schedules, and specific daily routines.I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and providing attentive, individualized care. Whether a dog needs medication, extra patience, a consistent routine, or simply plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for! I have a super flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine while making sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care! I’m comfortable following individual feeding, medication, exercise, and potty schedules, and I’m happy to adjust my routine around a pet’s specific needs. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own! I carefully follow each owner’s instructions/routines, keep pets in a safe environment, and always make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape points are secure. I’m also attentive to each pet’s individual personality and boundaries, especially with shy, nervous, senior, or special-needs pets. I want both pets and their owners to feel safe, comfortable, and confident while they’re in my care!

About: I have done pet sitting for many years, I have worked with multiple different types of animals many times. I love animals, can handle stressful situations, and know how to make responsable decisions regarding your home and beloved animals. I also will communicate effectively and be timely in my care of your pet. I work a job that has a flexible schedule, I do not have any prior commitments on weekends and any pet sitting jobs I book will become top priority. Pets should be treated with just as much respect as any person. Introducing yourself, acting calm and kindly, and also reading body cues and signs to make sure they remain comfortable at all times.

About: Hi, I'm Kat, and I've had dogs for most of my adult life. From adopting a Ridgeback who loved "walking on water" to caring for my brother's senior pug in his final years and now with a senior Aussie and a Beagle/Lab mix puppy and everything in between. Mybdogs are spoiled in the ways they need to be. Sometimes it's belly rubs for days or an extra cookie during the holidays. Sometimes it's just keeping them comfortable. I've also dog sat for friends and family for over 10 years. Sometimes I will go to thier house and stay so the dogs can keep thier schedules. Other times they will come have a staycation with thier BFF (my dog) Bailey. I'm obsessed with dogs and I haven't met a single dog I haven't loved right away!! My two dogs now get walked 2-3 times a day--rain, snow, sleet, or shine! I currently work full time, but I work from home Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday (I have every other Mon/Fri off and I work 20 minutes away from my home on Tuesdays. I do have some flexibility in my schedule). I also am good at managing my schedule, getting up early or staying up late to do volunteer and other work, so early mornings or late nights with your dog is no problem Our yard is pretty big and it's completely fenced. We also have fencing around "no go" areas like our veggie garden and flower gardens. We have ring cameras and flood lights in the backyard. We live in an area that is very safe area with limited vehicle traffic. I am able to crate at my home and am familiar with crating dogs outside of my home.

When I would care for your pets, it’s all about the greeting. I would love to make sure your pets are as comfortable with you as for me!

About: Hi there! My name is Jamiah, but feel free to call me by my nickname, Mia! I started building my pet care business in 2017. Now in 2025, I work at a non profit as a Communications & Marketing Specialist. While I took time away from Rover to start my career, my heart is calling me back to my ultimate passion-providing high quality care and comfort for all furry friends, while meeting fantastic like-minded people along the way! My love for all animals is deeply immense. Thanks to my mother-I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, as well as birds! And I was encouraged to always look out for animals and even saved a pregnant cat and raised a litter of kittens when I was 10 (I will share that story when we have the pleasure of meeting). With the animal lover trait being instilled in me, I take the utmost pride in being selected to look after yours. I currently have 1 dog (german shepherd) and 1 cat! I also take care of my mom’s dog (shepherd mix). I attended Conrad Schools of Science and chose the Animal Science career pathway for 3 years. Those 3 years provided me with the basic knowledge about all barn animals and pets. This experience enabled my passion for helping animals no matter how large or small. I’ve always taken the opportunity to volunteer and give back to shelters who need support. Faithful Friends became my home for a few summers as I walked dogs and cleaned countless litter pans. I am very well-rounded and balanced as it comes to animal care. I truly hope we get a chance to meet for your upcoming pet care needs! I do work full-time right now but my schedule is a hybrid one and thankfully extremely flexible! Do not hesitate to elaborate on your scheduling needs, I will always accommodate and coordinate with you effectively. I’m extremely open and always happy to help out :-) I will provide the utmost level of care and thoughtfulness for your pets as if I was taking care of my own pets in my household. I take your trust very seriously and it’s crucial in building a meaningful relationship as your sitter.

About: I grew up with cats & dogs my whole life. I don’t currently have any now so I miss them. Thought this would be a nice way to have that in my life & also help busy people out in the process. Life is a roller coaster we need to help each other out & making some extra money is always great I can adjust my schedule for the most part. I like staying busy & having routine so I have no problem helping you with yours as you would like for your furry ones. I’m a routine person so no problem following yours to care for your pets needs while your busy. I will care for your furry one as you would while your away.

About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats—and have taken great pleasure in doing so—since I was a kid. I’ve also had a chameleon and turtles, and am always eager to learn! I am currently unemployed and have ample time to walk your pups, host them at my house, and more! I lost my own dog earlier this year and have boundless love and care ready for the pets of my community! I live in a house with a large backyard (unfenced). I also love taking long walks and have been missing the company of a fur baby when going! If crate trained, you will need to provide a crate.

About: I’ve taken care of family and friends’ dogs throughout the past few years. I provided whatever they needed whether that was feeding, walking, or playing. I’m currently working a part time restaurant job that never ends later than 10:30 pm. So I will have plenty of time to take care of pets overnight and during the day. I provide reliable, attentive care in my client’s homes by following routines, offering playtime and affection, administering medications as needed, and keeping owners updated regularly.

About: Hi! I personally have two Labrador Retrievers that are very energetic and lovable. My husband and I raised them both from puppies. I absolutely love dogs and caring for them. My family and friends also rely me to babysit and check in with their fur babies as well. Nothing would make me happier than to come and check in on your pup and spend a little bit of time with them! This also comes with plenty of updates and pictures. I look forward to caring for your pup! I am currently in between jobs and looking for something rewarding to do during the week. I’m available all day Monday through Friday. As an owner of two labrador retrievers, I know sometimes check-ins and walks are needed during the busy day-to-day life. I am happy to accommodate whatever you need. If it’s some playtime in a fenced in yard, taking fur babies for a walk, making sure they are crated appropriately, cleaning up accidents, whatever their specific needs are with feeding, I am comfortable accommodating.

Absolutely — here’s a warm, enthusiastic review that highlights Julia’s reliability and the peace of mind she gives you while you’re at work: Julia is absolutely wonderful! She takes such great care of my dog, Arlo, while I’m away at work, and I couldn’t be happier with her. She is dependable, caring, communicative, and truly treats Arlo like he’s her own. Knowing that Julia is coming by during the day to let Arlo out gives me such peace of mind. She goes above and beyond to make sure he gets some attention, care, and a much-needed break during the day. I highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker. She has been amazing with Arlo, and I feel completely comfortable knowing he is in such good hands while I’m at work. We are so grateful to have found her!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Marshallton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Marshallton is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 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 5,499 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Marshallton. 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 Marshallton. 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 Marshallton 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 Marshallton. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 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.
