About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of varying sizes beginning at age 12. Family members and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, play, love on, and bathe their pets. I currently work during the day but can flexibly leave throughout the day. Once my work day is finished my afternoons and evenings are completely open to love on fur babies. I value maintaining the routine of your pets, ensuring that they feel safe and you feel comfortable knowing their sense of security will not be disrupted.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a kid. I grew up with 10 dogs and 4 cats. I still dog sit for my parents all the time and they have 11 dogs. I also have 2 dogs of my own. I have tons of experience and there isn’t anyone who loves animals more! I work remotely, so I’m usually available and flexible most weekdays for drop-ins, walks, playtime, and check-ins. Since I’m home often, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow any direction my clients give! I’m experienced giving medicine to dogs and I am very attentive to any and all pets. I am very detail oriented and very reliable.

About: I have twenty plus years of canine experience, including elderly dogs and puppies. I previously have volunteered at the local humane society and worked as an obedience trainer for a pet store chain, instructing group and private classes. I recently left the medical field after twenty years and have plenty of time to devote to your pet's needs. I love to take my dogs on walks, hikes and trips to the dog park. We would love for your furry friend to join our pack. I have a fully fenced in back and front yard with camera access. The inside of my home is spacious enough to separate crated dogs as needed.

About: Resident doctor by day, gentle pet‑spoiler always. I care for humans professionally and your pets lovingly - because everyone deserves snacks, comfort, and a calm heartbeat nearby. Working nearly full‑time until the end of June, with somewhat limited availability. My schedule opens up much more in the summer, offering plenty of pet‑care time. I understand how stressful it is when owners leave, so I focus on making your pet feel safe, comforted, and genuinely loved throughout your time away.

About: I've grown up around dogs and have always loved being around animals. I'm patient, attentive, and happy to adapt to each pet's routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply keeping them company! As a recent high school graduate, I have a flexible schedule and can work with a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, overnight care, weekend visits, or regular drop-ins, I'm happy to accommodate whenever possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and any special routines. I make sure pets are supervised, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, and feel secure in their familiar environment. I'm respectful of your home, will keep everything clean, and will always communicate if I notice anything unusual. You can expect regular updates and photos throughout my visits.

About: I’m 39 years old and there has been a pet in my life since I was 7. I’m an only child and my pets quickly became like siblings (we didn’t fight like them, promise). I became the primary caregiver for my mom’s two senior mini dachshunds a few years ago and was able to get them crate and pee-pad trained. One of them crossed the rainbow bridge sadly, but my other little old lady is doing well. I fall in love with every animal I see and I would love the chance to fall in love with yours. I’m currently working a full time second shift job (1pm-11pm) so I have the mornings completely open to check on your babies. I’m also a night owl and have no problem doing a nighttime check after work or begin an overnight stay. If you have a fenced yard, I will let them outside and let them do their business before tossing a ball or toy or running around with them to get the zoomies out. If no yard, then I will take them out on a leash for a walk then some playtime inside. Food and water will be checked and refilled; cuddles will be provided at will. :)

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 5 and have had all ages so I have had experience in how handle them all. i do not go to school until after 9am and I am able to be home by 11:30am Monday thru Friday. I can be home all day Saturday and Sundays. Monday-Wednesday I typically work but have a flexible schedule and can change it if needed. So this will allow me to be the only person caring for your animal. In my home we let our cats roam and have their bowls out so they can eat whenever. If you need me to keep your cat on a schedule I can also do that. We feed our dog morning and night. I let him out in the morning and let him stay outside in our backyard/deck until I or someone else get home.

About: I’ve worked in a cat, dog, and exotic kennel for 3 years at a veterinary clinic. I have over 500 hours in small animal husbandry and I also shadow and work with a veterinarian during the summer. This experience has made me extremely versed in reading animal body language as well as being detailed oriented when it comes to pristine care for pets no matter if they are puppies, kittens or seniors citizens. In addition, I am a pre-vet major at Mississippi State University and plan to pursue veterinary medicine in the future. Taking care of furry friends is my passion and I’d love to provide service to you! I’m currently on break from college and work at a veterinary clinic during the weekends as veterinary assistant and kennel technician. I choose to provide pet-sitting and walking services during the week to serve my community while still balancing schoolwork and veterinary hours. Your pet fits perfectly into my planned schedule so that I can provide intentional, safe care for them! At a client’s home I like to go through a detailed talk to discuss feeding times, play date times, as well as triggers for each pet in order to keep all of us safe and happy.

About: Hi! I’m Emily, and dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a family where our dogs were truly family members, and my first job at 11 years old was walking my neighbors’ dogs. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—including puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need medication or extra attention. As a Rover customer myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. That’s why I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’m home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection throughout the day. My own dog, Ollie, loves making new friends, and we stick to a structured routine with multiple walks, enrichment activities, and lots of cuddle time. I maintain a clean, safe environment and can follow your dog’s regular schedule, dietary needs, medications, and any special instructions. I always make sure to have a clean environment so the dogs can’t get into anything that would be harmful to them. They will get at least 4 walks a day and one trip to the fenced in dog park behind my complex if weather permits.

FAQs for Dog Walking - McCalla

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in McCalla on Rover is $16.65 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 1,016 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across McCalla. 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 McCalla. 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 McCalla.

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 McCalla. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
