About: With over 30 years of pet care experience growing up on a small farm, I’ve had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals—from dogs and cats to livestock. My experience has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and care needs. Living on 100 acres, I offer a unique environment where pets have plenty of space to explore and play in a safe, supervised setting. Unlike many sitters, dog sitting is my main source of income, which means I am fully dedicated to giving your pet my full attention, love, and care. Whether it’s puppy training, senior pet care, or just providing lots of love and exercise, I treat every pet like they’re my own! *I also offer a contactless pet drop-offs and pick-ups if needed for early morning/late evening pick ups(+$fee per dog). You can drop your fur baby off in my outdoor kennel, text me and I will be sure to come get you pup as soon as I can and move them inside or to the fenced in area! I prefer to do this after we have met in person at least once to show you the kennel drop off/pick up. Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. As a full-time pet sitter living on 100 acres, my day revolves around providing attentive, personalized care. From morning walks and playtime to feeding, grooming, and cuddling, I ensure every pet gets the love, exercise, and attention they deserve. Since pet sitting is my main source of income, I have the flexibility and time to accommodate individual needs—whether it’s extra potty breaks, medication schedules, or play sessions. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priority every single day. There isn't an option to mark for older kids, Rover considers under 12yrs a child. I have a teenager and my youngest is about to turn 12. They have been raised around dogs and cats their entire lives, also my kids and our cats have their own side of the house that is gated off from all dogs. We have some outside barn cats that are used to running and hiding from our own dog Nala. It's ok if your dog doesn't like cats-they are very good at avoiding cars and dogs. I provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for all pets in my care. My property includes a fenced-in area detached from the house, allowing for secure, off-leash playtime where pets can run, explore, and enjoy fresh air safely. In addition to regular walks and exercise, I also offer bathing services, with pricing based on breed and size. My priority is ensuring each pet feels loved, comfortable, and well-cared for—whether they’re getting their zoomies out in the fenced area or enjoying a calm, cozy space indoors. Please make sure fur baby is up to date on all their vaccinations, flea and tick meds.

About: I have been around animals my whole life and want to spoil yours! I have owned cats and dogs both and take care of many of my neighbors pets all the time! I am the person who is always getting distracted and running late because I ran into a dog that needed to be pet! I am not currently working so I am free to walk and take care of your pets full time! I can easily adjust my schedule to stay overnight if needed and just visit if not! I have lots of experience walking dogs safely (my last dog was a beagle, so I know how the nose can lead a dog!) I am happy to crate your dog and keep them safe at your home and in your yard and neighborhood!

About: Hi, I’m Suzie! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies and energetic younger dogs to sweet seniors. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual personality, routine, energy level, and needs. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment with plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and rest. I’m a full-time stay-at-home mom to a wonderful 2.5-year-old toddler and a friendly standard-size labradoodle, so pets are naturally a big part of my daily life. Being home most of the day allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care for your pet. Our home is filled with activity, play, and love—perfect for pets who enjoy company and a family setting. I work pet care into my daily routine by: • Frequent Potty Breaks & Playtime: Since I’m home, I can let dogs out often and provide outdoor time in my spacious (unfenced) backyard with close supervision. • Walks: I enjoy taking my dog on walks, and I’m happy to bring your pup along for fresh air and exercise. • Indoor Play & Enrichment: Toys, games, and interactive activities are part of our daily routine, keeping pets entertained and engaged. • Naptime & Relaxation: There’s also plenty of quiet time for rest and cuddles—especially during my toddler’s nap time. • Flexible Schedule: My flexible routine allows me to adapt to your pet’s specific needs, whether that means extra outdoor time, medication, or simply extra love and attention. Pets become part of our little family while they’re here, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for throughout their stay! Pet Care Approach: Caring for pets is my passion, and their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home , I strive to create a loving, attentive, and stress-free environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. In My Home: I live in a single-family house with a spacious backyard (not fenced), offering plenty of space for supervised outdoor play and exercise. Since the yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is closely monitored to ensure your pet’s safety. Leash walks are also available for added security. Indoors, pets will have a cozy and clean environment where they can relax and feel at home.

“Ava was absolutely fantastic! She was reliable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. From the very beginning, she was communicative, punctual, and made me feel completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. She went above and beyond by making sure my dog got plenty of exercise and attention. I highly recommend Ava to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable dog walker. I'll definitely be using her services again. Thank you, Ava, for taking such wonderful care of my pup!”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of raising a dog from 9 weeks old to his current 13 years. I’ve been there every step of the way, from puppyhood to adulthood and senior years. Plus, my dog tore his ACL, so I know firsthand the challenges of keeping your pet safe and out of harm’s way, along with the need for special care and instructions. I am currently a senior student athlete in college with a flexible schedule. I wanted to find a part-time job that I would actually enjoy, and I have always loved being near animals. Coming back home to my dog is always the highlight of my trip, so being near dogs and getting to see the joy on their faces has always made me smile. I think pets are happiest when they’re in their own space, so I’d rather work at someone else’s home. Plus, getting to know the dog and the pet owners will really help everyone feel more comfortable.

About: Throughout my life I have always had either a cat or dog as pets and have always enjoyed taking care of them. As a dog owner myself, I have a deep appreciation and respect for all breeds which allows me to really bond with them. My patient manner allows them to become comfortable with me very quickly and really provides for a better experience for both myself and the pet being looked after. I have taken care of many different types of breeds and sizes which allows me the knowledge of taking great care of them so you have the peace of mind that your baby is well loved and cared for while away. From puppies to seniors, I am able to handle them all. I am also not shy to dietary restrictions and specific instructions you may have. Hi, I'm Hannah I'm a Frederick local and lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to care for your pets like they're my own. A little about me: · Proud Frederick local — I know and love this community. · Pet parent to a Boxer-Border Collie mix, so I'm no stranger to energy, smarts, and big personalities · Animal lover through and through — I've never met a pet I didn't adore. Why book with me: · Trustworthy — you can count on me to be reliable and honest · Responsible — I take your pet's routine, safety, and happiness seriously · Friendly — I'll make sure you and your pet both feel comfortable and cared for · Respectful — of your home, your pet's needs, and your instructions My promise: Your animals will be treated like my own — with love, patience, and plenty of attention. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, your pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine, so your pets get consistent, reliable attention. I'm up early every morning — no sleeping in around here. My own dog is usually the reason, and I wouldn't have it any other way. That early start means morning walks, feedings, and drop-in visits are easy for me to work into my day. I'm currently in between jobs and heading back to school, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of open time during the day. Pet care is a great fit for this season of my life — it works around my classes, and it gives me something I genuinely enjoy doing with my time. I'm married, and together we share our home with our own dog — a Boxer-Border Collie mix. We're also hoping to add another dog to the family soon, so I understand the excitement and the responsibility that comes with a full house of animals. Whether it's an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or an evening visit, I have the time, the flexibility, and the heart for it. Your pets will get the same care, attention, and routine I give my own. I have a fenced in backyard, walking trails, and plenty of space in my home to host your furry friends. Security system is also active and I am home throughout the day.

About: HAWKINS DOES NOT LIVE WITH ME FULL TIME, HE LIVES WITH MY FATHER :) I've been a dog lover since childhood! I've been watching, walking and giving lots of love to my own dog (Hawkins) for about 3 years now! However, I was asked to walk and check-in on dogs several times in my complex and neighborhood! This happens especially in my family, as a lot of my family members have one or more dogs they ask me to take care of when they go out of town, or just need a break! I've been caring for a diverse range of breeds, from a Shih Tzu to a Golden Retriever since I was basically 10 years old! I love to work, play with dogs, and save to pay off my student loans! I'll have some availability on the weekends when I don't have class, usually starting around 12pm! There are plenty trails, parks and squares around Maryland, which will provide your dog plenty of room for extra exercise, plenty of playing, and exploring! I will happily take your dog for long walks, play with them however your living space will allow, and play with them as long as you are comfortable with in the parks!

About: I have taken care of not only my own pets for almost my entire life, but also I have helped friends and family with their fur-babie(s)! I even taught my dog her lefts and rights. She’s a smart little pup. 🐶 As of today, (8/11/25), I have a pretty open schedule and I will adjust my schedule on here, promptly, if my schedule changes! Feel free to ask any questions, I’m also willing to do some same day pet care, if needed! I plan to make sure during my time with any pet that they are taken care of in a safe, proper, and caring manner, whilst also following any specific instructions of my clients needs for their fur-babie(s) & their homes.

About: I'm a pet lover and caretaker, through and through. After having several small pets - tons of guinea pigs, a hamster, a gerbil, and even hermit crabs - and begging my mom for several years to let me have a dog, we finally got a family pup when I was 14 years old. Ever since then, I have always had at least one pup by my side. I now have two large dogs of my own. I love hanging out, snuggling, walking, and purely just doing what I can to give these precious animals the life they deserve. In my free time, I also volunteer with the dogs at animal control! With two dogs of my own, I understand how important it is to give each pet the time and attention it needs and deserves. I will always allot enough time to care for your pets, and I am flexible in unexpected situations. If you like your animals to receive specific care, I am great at following instructions … but beware, because I'll always throw in some extra snuggles, scratchies, and love!

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and grew up with dogs, so being around them has always been a big part of my life. I’ve dog sat and house sat for friends and family for years, and I’ve also helped friends who foster dogs take care of their puppies. I currently have two dogs of my own that we rescued from Saint Martin in 2023, and I absolutely adore them. They’re a huge part of my life, and I’m so thankful we were able to give them a loving home. I know every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to adjust to whatever makes yours happiest and most comfortable. Whether that means walks, playing outside, lots of attention and belly rubs, or just hanging out on the couch, I’m there for it! I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in between careers, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I do have a few other small jobs and am occasionally away on weekends, but my schedule varies and I’m generally pretty open. I’m happy to work with you to find days and times that fit your needs, and I’ll always be upfront about my availability! I will do everything needed to ensure your pets get the care that they deserve and make sure they are as safe, happy and loved as possible!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Middletown is $18 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $22 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 October 2026, there are 3,150 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Middletown. 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 Middletown. 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 , 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 Middletown 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Middletown. On Rover:

  • 87% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
