About: I grew up with two funny little dogs, Kiwi (a Peekapoo) and Tegan (a Bichon Frisé), whom my mom and I trained from puppies. I’m now the proud cat mom to an orange tabby named Ari! I’m calm, patient, loving, and consistent with animals. I also have experience caring for a senior dog who required daily medication by injection, and I’m happy to provide that same gentle, attentive care for your pets if needed. Whether your pet loves to play, explore, or simply curl up for cuddles, I’m happy to follow their lead and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. :) I have a flexible schedule, so your pet will receive plenty of attention and companionship! I have a flexible schedule and am often available for same-day bookings! Starting in August every Thursday, I will nanny for a wonderful five-month-old baby while also caring for her family’s two dogs and two cats. Outside of Thursdays, my schedule is very open. Because of my flexibility, your pets can receive the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I keep my availability up to date, communicate promptly, and strive to make every booking reliable, stress-free, and personalized to your pet’s needs. Every pet is unique, so I always begin by following the owner’s instructions and learning their routine. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks or a clean litter box, exercise and playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also pay close attention to their behavior to make sure they seem happy, comfortable, and healthy. If medications are needed, I’m happy to administer them as directed. Before I leave, I’ll make sure your pet is settled and I’ll send you an update with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Courtney is the best! She was available to walk my dog last minute and even stopped by for a meet and greet. Great communication. She took him to the park, which he loves. I felt like he was in good hands especially with her background as a vet tech. Thank you!”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life in my personal and professional life. I worked for a small business in VA for about 5 years throughout high school and college and have started back up since I started my own Graphic Design business! I've cared for dogs (reptiles and other exotic pets as well) of many different breeds and personalities throughout the years and have always loved every minute! I run my own graphic design business and have a second job in the afternoon (2pm-7pm) but all other hours can be filled with playtime for your pet! I can drop by in the morning, midday, and night as early as 8am and as late as 10pm (unless specified as an overnight). If you are looking for an overnight service, please be aware that I will be away for your home for 3-4 hours at a time to fulfill other routine walks and my work. Visits will always have play time and enough walk time for sufficient exercise. I always make sure to give a lot of attention and make them comfortable even though you're away and will stick as close to your normal routine as I can! In the summer, I'm careful about temperatures especially if they walk in the street and take special care of cold climate breeds.

About: I’ve grown up w/ dogs all my life! I’ve had 2 of my own that have unfortunately passed & although I’m not emotionally ready to take in another dog fully, I thought this would be the perfect situation for me! I have a backyard w/ fence for them to play & run around, enough space inside my house for them to have their own back room, love going on walks around the neighborhood! I’m currently employed full time, work 3 days/12hr shifts a week so I have time during the week & weekends to play w/ your baby! I have a backyard that is fenced & there’s one small dog that’s always downstairs (sister in law lives in basement, owns dog) but if the dog I’m sitting is friendly they have a friend they can play with! Also have an empty back room that has a gate that dog can have room to relax in!

“Today was my dog’s first solo walk with Shanisa and I couldn’t be happier! Shanisa and I worked extensively with my dog to get him comfortable with her because he is usually very wary of strangers. He warmed up to Shanisa quickly and was comfortable with her in our home just by themselves. I now have more freedom and less worry knowing my dog will be safe and cared for when I cannot be home.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and an ICU nurse, so I understand how important staying active and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is—and that goes for our dogs too! Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own, I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, from Dobermans to Yorkshire Terriers. I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m happy to tailor my care to whatever works best for you and your pup. I live in an apartment, but I’m surrounded by parks and great walking areas, so I can take your dog on walks around your neighborhood or to nearby parks for some extra exercise and enrichment. I’m also a great fit for dogs who may not do well around other pets, as I’m happy to give them one-on-one attention in a comfortable environment. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll follow your preferred routine and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m also happy to send as many photos and videos as you’d like to keep you updated and give you peace of mind. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾❤️ I am surrounded by many parks, so taking advantage of the weather and getting my steps in with your dog is one way to make them feel comfortable and making sure their physical needs are met. I am trustworthy and transparent when taking care of pets. I treat them like my own while following any special care they need! I am happy to send updates through photos or videos as well.

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: 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.

About: I’ve had animal training internships including one at UPenn. I worked with law enforcement and detection K9s ranging from puppies to professional dogs in their chosen field. I’ve volunteered at an animal rescue since I was 7 years old. I worked with animals from all different backgrounds and disciplines ranging all the way from dogs to horses. I am currently working part-time so I can work around scheduling to be able to provide the best care possible for your animals at the most convenient times. I have education in animal husbandry, nutrition, and management. I follow instructions very carefully so however the owner prefers their animal to be cared for is how it will be treated.

Brianna was an amazing intro to Rover! I have an extremely nervous dog and she was quick to respond to my request, reassure me and explain her experience with nervous shelter dogs. We set up a meet and greet and went forward with the booking. Line behold, she was able to do what no one but myself is normally capable of… walking my dog!!! Even my roommate was impressed!! Thank you Brianna from the bottom of my heart. We will definitely be using your services again!!!

FAQs for Dog Walking - New Castle

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in New Castle on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,689 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New Castle. 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 New Castle. 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 New Castle.

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 New Castle. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 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.
