“Nicolina and Patrice helped us out while we were away on vacation by stopping by and walking our dog a few times a day. They were so kind, really cared for our pet and were very trustworthy. We will be reaching out to them in the future!”

“This was our first time using Rover and Molly was very patient with my questions. We’re still working on training with our dog and she gave great feedback on how the walks went. We appreciated her being flexible with some schedule adjustment and will definitely use her again.”

“Erica did a great job with my big boy. He’s a tugger and she handled it really well. She was very communicative & took great pictures. The reviews were right, you should definitely have her walk your baby. When I came home he was excited to see me but well taken care of. Thank you Erica from Prince & I.”

About: I have been caring for various types of pets for over 40 years. Mostly dogs. I'm very experienced with senior dogs as well as puppies and everything in-between. I can even care for your tropical and saltwater fishies! Recently retired with all the time in the world to be home and available to your babies. I couldn't truly relax on vacation unless I was completely confident that my babies were loved, protected and spoiled with attention and love. This is what I will deliver. I know the drill on feeding, potty, meds, grooming(not professional just basic) and play, exercise, bedtime routines.....you name it! I can't wait to meet all my new friends. I'm available everyday and most holidays. Being retired really lets me be flexible. I do travel a few times a year for vacation and visiting family. Otherwise I will be available, often times on short notice. I have a small yard with a tall fence and a nice deck for lounging. I also love to take length appropriate walks relative to the dogs needs. Rain or shine.
“Maria has been great for me and my dogs. She immediately won them over during our meet and greet. She send regular updates and photos which are much appreciated while I’m gone. I can also tell she truly cares by the questions she asks regarding the dogs needs.”

“Jasmine is such a wonderful person and dog walker. She pays attention to my dogs, she treats them like they're her own, she works with me to make sure that the process is great when I'm not there.”
“Lady remains the constant star! She provided awesome updates while taking care of my puppy son! Will continue to use her services for as long as she’ll let me. 😂”

“Heather and Jennifer were genuinely kind, caring, and attentive to Gizmo and Cinci, who are senior dogs. This is my first time in 14 years using a dog walking service for the boys, and I am really happy that I chose them. They were very professional, responsible, and reliable!”

“I’m so grateful to Elliot for helping me out in a pinch! He went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was well taken care of. At first, my dog was hesitant and wouldn’t let him get too close, but Elliot was patient and persistent, working to gain his trust without pushing too hard. Before long, my puppy warmed up to him and they had a great time together. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Elliot put in the extra effort to make sure he felt comfortable and cared for. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated dog walker!”

About: I’ve taken care of big and small dogs starting at a young age. Neighbors have trusted me to walk, play, and sit their loving dogs. I take care of a 115lb dog of my own, but have cared for dogs all of sizes! I am energetic and love to play and give all attention to the dog as if it’s my own. I am compassionate but take the training of the dog into consideration. I love long and short walks to keep the dog in shape and healthy. I’m currently working part-time, so I am very flexible and open to many schedules! I am a full-time student at UMD from September to May. I have a fenced yard and one chocolate lab at home who loves to play. I love to play indoors or outdoors depending on weather. I can never stray away from taking a cat nap with an adorable dog and have plenty of dog beds for your animal.
“Hannah did an amazing job with my anxious pup! She is very patient and kind towards her. In addition, she is extremely reliable, flexible, informative, and communicative with myself when planning for walks and during her time with Lady. Highly recommend!”

“I really appreciate Andrew be willing to accept this walk despite the booking being so last minute. He was communicative, caring and seemed to be very in tune with my at times anxious pup. I would happily book Andrew for a future walk. Thank you!”


About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and starting at 11 I began dog and cat sitting. I've cared for pets with all sorts of needs and temperaments, and individual accomadation and flexibility are very important to me. I love animals, and taking care of animals, and I can't wait to meet your babies and give them the high quality care they deserve! I'm currently in business school part time after getting my bachelors degree, so my schedule is very flexible. I am happy to accomodate most requests - your pets comfort and safety are my top priorities! I do not offer services in my home, as my cat is not very friendly with other animals, but in my own home I have fully enclosed outdoor spaces for my cat, multiple litter boxes, high quality food, and endless toys and cat trees. My cat's health and wellbeing are the utmost importance to me, and I will bring that same level of care and attention to your pets, however their routines and environments differ from our own!
About: Here for your last minute doggy daycare & boarding needs! Greetings! My name is Trishelle & I look forward to meeting your furry acquaintances. I'm a dedicated and experienced small dog caregiver with over 3 years of hands-on experience providing personalized care for pups of all temperaments and energy levels. Whether it’s dog walking, drop-in visits, boarding, or doggy daycare, I treat every dog like family — because they are family. My specialty is caring for small breeds, and I understand their unique needs when it comes to exercise, attention, safety, and comfort. From daily walks and cuddle-filled playtime to stress-free overnight stays in a cozy, home-like environment, I ensure your pup feels secure, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am dependable, trustworthy, accommodating and flexible. Please inform me if your pet has specific needs such as a walking, food and allergies. I have a 2 year old miniature dachshund that is very friendly and gets along well with other dogs. We look forward to meeting you soon! Pet care is a central part of my daily life — not just a job, but a true passion woven into my routine. Each day is thoughtfully planned around the dogs I care for to ensure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Mornings typically start with walks or breakfast for any boarding or daycare pups. Throughout the day, I schedule drop-in visits, enrichment activities, playtime, and potty breaks based on each dog's individual needs. For daycare dogs, I maintain a structured yet relaxed environment with plenty of cuddle time, short walks, and rest breaks to keep small dogs feeling safe and content. Evenings are often filled with winding down, dinner routines, and sending photo updates to pet parents. I also build in time for cleaning, prepping meals, and maintaining a calm, cozy home environment. Because I focus exclusively on small dogs, I can tailor my routine to their specific needs — whether that’s a midday walk, medication, or just sitting with a lapdog who needs some company. Pet care isn’t just something I fit into my schedule — it is my schedule, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I care for my pets with the same love, attention, and consistency I’d want someone to give mine if I were away. That means providing a structured daily routine with regular meals, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I focus on creating a calm, clean, and safe environment, paying close attention to their behavior, mood, and health. Whether it’s keeping up with grooming, giving medication on schedule, or simply spending quiet time together, I make sure they feel secure, happy, and part of the family. I also believe in understanding each pet’s personality — some love to play, some just want to snuggle, and some need a little extra patience. I adjust my care to suit their needs, always leading with kindness and respect. For me, pet care isn’t just about meeting basic needs — it’s about nurturing trust and building a bond that makes every pet feel loved.
“Zana is an incredible pet sitter/walker who we’ve used multiple times. Our dog loves when she comes over and she sends many updates and pictures. We look forward to using her in the future.”

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 .

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 Middle River. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .

- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs

- 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
