“Gianna is a true gem!!! I used her today to walk Bear and Bailee and I couldn’t be more pleased. She was punctual, followed all instructions to the letter communicated thoroughly, provided detailed information and explanations and provided pictures. There’s nothing more I could’ve asked for! I have found the perfect dog walker for Bear and Bailee! Thanks Gianna!”

About: I love all creatures big and small and I am ready to give your pet all of my love. I have been a family member and guardian (I don’t say owner) to dogs of all sizes my whole life and I have a perfect cat named Jellybean too. I have experience with training and caring for difficult pups as well as those more delicate or senior sweeties with special needs. They are all perfect to me! Currently working full-time outside of the house 3x per week and only available Tuesdays and Fri-Sun. On weekends, I am free the whole day and night to care for your pet. I have a secure home and fenced in yard, and one small sassy senior Rat Terrier and a cat to keep your fur baby company. Dogs are not constrained to any specific areas in my house and they are free to explore. I will always make sure there is nothing out that might be problematic (food, wires, etc). If needed, I have extra rooms that we could separate your pet into.

About: I have been caring for all kinds of animals on Rover for almost 8 years now, and got my start even younger at 12 when I started my own neighborhood dogwalking business. I’ve worked for dozens of pet owners on Rover for the past few years and have loved getting to know so many little characters! I’m not in a position to get my own pet right now, so Rover has been an awesome way to get quality time with animals. I work seasonally at a wildlife refuge, but my current position ends on November 6th so starting then I’ll have full time availability for pet sitting! I live in a big apartment in West Philly with my partner who also loves animals (she works seasonally with wildlife!) We have a small fenced backyard that often goes unused. We have no pets in our apartment, but the downstairs neighbor has a dog that your pet will likely never see, but may smell or hear. Starting November 6th, my seasonal position at the urban wildlife refuge comes to a close and I will have full availability for River pets! That means I can work my schedule around you and your pets’ needs and be available for animals that need more time and attention. I have a small fenced in backyard for quick breaks and a private apartment with no other pets or children. I’m active, a hiker, and love long walks - would love if your pet could join!

About: Starting local to Philadelphia. I have been taking care of other people's strays and rescuing feral and street animals for several years. I can manage several animals simultaneously and accommodate all of their psychological and physical needs. I have provided care for Chinchillas, Ferrets, Rabbits, cats, and dogs. Dog walking was something I did for two years for my neighbors. I am currently a cat sitter, and provide drop-in visits. In the morning I will check on the needs of any animals ie food and water. I will play and walk with them for about an hour. I will have dogs with similar temperaments play with one another. After playing and walking I will make sure they eat and rest. Throughout the day I will provide activities and enrichment for the pets. At the end of the day i will walk dogs for another hour. I care for pets in my home based on their individualized needs. Certain cats are independent and would prefer not to be touched. I will foster a positive relationship with the pet slowly, and individualize their affection based on their personalities and needs.

About: I have always loved pets. Growing up, I didn't have any of my own, but those of my friends, neighbors, and family were always the highlight of my day. I've taken care of and friends' dogs and accompanied many of them throughout the years during their time as sitters. I am now a proud cat mom and ready to fill my life with more adorable animal friends! I am open to caring for dogs, cats, birds, and other small pets. I am in the last year of my MFA program, so I have classes to work around. However, my schedule is generally somewhat open, and on a given day I am usually at home or nearby my neighborhood, so I can easily accommodate a last minute drop in request. When visiting your home, I will be sure to respect your space and follow your instructions to a T (I'll always check everything at least twice)!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, including hands-on kennel work at an animal shelter. I’m currently a graduate student in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, which strengthens my attentiveness, responsibility, and calm approach to care. My focus is always on creating a safe, low-stress environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for. I’m currently in grad school, so I have plenty of time for walks and check-ins before 11AM. I also have open availability for pet sitting in the client’s home. I’m experienced with pet handling and transfer. As a precaution for your pet’s safety I only offer sitting in the client’s home. On walks I only take pets from the same household. All pets remain leashed on walks and a safe distance from other pets is maintained to ensure your pet’s safety.

Your pup won't have to worry about being left alone for long stretches! I also have two dogs and a cat of my own, so animals are a huge part of my everyday life. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets, and I treat every animal I watch like one of my own.

About: I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone patient, gentle, and trustworthy while you’re away. Every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks — and I love getting to know what makes each one special. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, cuddles, brushing, quiet companionship, or simply having someone nearby, I always adjust my care to what helps them feel happiest and most comfortable. For dogs, this may include walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. For cats, I spend time playing, brushing if they enjoy it, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure they feel comfortable and relaxed. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while giving you peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate most requests. I kindly ask for at least 3 days’ notice in advance. I’ll always do my best to work around your needs and provide dependable care for your pet. I provide detailed updates and photos for each visit, and I always pay attention to pets’ behavior and comfort level and make sure owners receive updates so they can feel reassured while away. I carefully follow feeding routines, walking instructions, litter box care, fresh water changes, and any special care requests.

About: I have experience caring for cats and small dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s personality and routine. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and lots of affection. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away I’m a Penn student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan pet care around my classes. I’m especially available in the evenings, on weekends, and during days when I have more flexibility. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents in advance to make sure their pet receives consistent and reliable care. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions and try to keep each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I make sure food, water, doors, leashes, and the environment are secure, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level. I’m respectful of both the pet and the owner’s home, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos while they’re in my care.

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life I've had to attend dog behavioral training classes with multiple dogs over the years of owning them with family. As an adult I've never had the privilege of owning my own dog only cats. But I've always been the one to help family members when they go away walks & pet siting. I work in the elder care system but trying to find a balance of Harmony. With my active lifestyle and fond affection for The Great outdoors I miss the company of dogs I don't have the means or time to own my own I would like an opportunity to be able to explore new areas of my local neighborhood and getting exercise. I do care for a cat though, she is not my own. But she is welcomed in my apartment she owns this house. And I only just pay the rent.

About: Hi! I’m a second-year veterinary student at the University of Pennsylvania, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life! Between working in a veterinary clinic, caring for my own pets, and everything I’ve learned in vet school, I have plenty of hands-on experience with animals of all different personalities, ages, and needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and caring for pets who may need a little extra attention. I’m also very active and love going on walks, runs, and spending time outdoors, so I’d be more than happy to keep your pet active and entertained! Of course, I’m just as happy hanging out with pets who prefer cuddles and a relaxing day at home. My schedule also gives me flexibility outside of classes, and I’d love to spend that time doing what I love most … being around animals! I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone else, and I’ll always treat your pets like my own. I’m responsible, attentive, and happy to send plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away. Plus, your pet might even get a few extra practice physical exams out of the deal! 🐾 As a veterinary student, I have a pretty flexible schedule, especially on weekends! I love staying active, going on walks and runs, and spending time outdoors, so having a furry companion makes it even better! I also spend a lot of time studying at home, which means plenty of opportunities to keep your pets company, give them attention, and make sure they aren’t spending too much time alone. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! As a veterinary student with previous experience working in a veterinary clinic, I’m comfortable handling animals with different personalities, temperaments, and care needs. I know how important consistency is, so I’ll carefully follow your instructions, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, grooming, or their favorite bedtime routine. I treat every pet like my own and will always make sure they’re getting plenty of love, attention, and care. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know your pet is in good hands!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Millbourne

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Millbourne is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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 9,269 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Millbourne. 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 Millbourne. 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 Millbourne 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 Millbourne. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
