“First time using a dog walker, and I’m so glad I did. Sam was great and responsive to a last minute request. My dog came back worn out and will likely nap for awhile. Thanks Sam!!!”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I recently moved to Ohio and really miss having dogs. I would love to care and play with them whenever I have free time. I love all kinds of animals and i'm very gentle with them. I have a huge heart for dogs and cats. I enjoyed walking and playing with my dogs growing up. I have worked with dogs that have high anxiety so I know how to calm them down in stressful situations. I also take their safety every serious and would care for them like my own pets. I can not wait to care for your dogs/cats and create special relationships with them for the future. I can help with your pets Monday-Friday 10am-6pm. Walks, feedings, and cuddles! I am more than happy to stay over night when needed. I'm also very flexible when it comes to my schedule. I have 2 fur babies (cats) that I love like my own children! Willy and Boots! Giving animals loves of love is something i'm an expert at!

About: I'm new to pet sitting but not new to loving dogs and cats! I have 3 fur babies (pups). Dora, Rosie, and GG and they are my world along with my husband of course! 😊 I am also a Board of Trustee member for Columbus Humane as I am deeply passionate about animal welfare. I've spent 25 years in leadership in the intellectual and developmental disability field. I'm currently launching my own consulting business that allows me flexibility to earn extra income snuggling with your pets! I will treat your pets like my own which means lots of love, walks, and treats! I am currently starting my own consulting business so my schedule is very open. I go to the gym 3 days a week around noon for an hour. Otherwise, I have lots of availability. As a dog mom who is super protective of my pups ever getting out of our yard, I will ensure I follow all instructions to make sure your pet is safe at all times. All 3 of my pups have their own needs as they are all seniors so I'm comfortable with special diets, medication, or any other needs your pet may have.
“This is our second time booking with Emma, and we'll happily book with her again in the future. We had good communication, the walks were for the agreed upon amount of time, and we always came home to a happy dog!”

“Nicole is the absolute best! She’s punctual, caring, honest, and trustworthy. We really appreciate having Nicole take care of our pets needs when we are not able to. I would recommend Nicole to anyone that has a need for a Dog walker, or a pet sitter.”

“After 2 walks with Mallory, I'm pleased. Jimmy knew what she was here for the second walk. He's tired after, which is what I wanted. I added a pic of him sleeping tonight (1 1/2hrs) after his walk. His eyes are rolled back in his head, and snoring. Mallory is very kind and obviously loves animals. I'm so grateful to have found a great match. Excited to see Jimmy be more active.”

About: I love pets!! My kids make fun of me because I would likely have a zoo if I had enough time and resources. So, since I can’t love on all them as my own, let me temporarily love on yours while you are away. I currently own 2 Shiba Inus named Murray and Mira, who are extremely friendly with other dogs, and 2 cats who think they are dogs. I am constantly pet sitting for my friends and neighbors. From my girlfriend and her diabetic cat to my buddy with a rambunctious Aussie to the rescue foster who is scared of her own shadow. These are just some examples of my experiences caring for pets. I have a nice, fenced yard in a safe neighborhood and a welcoming home to accommodate pet sitting as needed. Help me fund my own time away and/or building a fund for my next furry family member. ;) I currently work from home and have flexible schedule. I prefer in home boarding during weekdays, but could do in home care if within 10 minutes driving or on weekends. I am open minded to your care needs. I typically walk 3 miles a day, so I’m happy to go on a nice walk with your best friend.

About: With eight years of experience caring for pets, I bring a thoughtful, patient approach to every visit. I have a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), which has given me a solid foundation in reading behavior and using reinforcement to praise desirable behavior. While my professional ABA experience is with humans, I've found that it translates well with my own cat and other animals I've been responsible for. My schedule is completely open, so I can easily work around your pet's routine! Early mornings, late nights, or anytime in between - whenever they need me. While in your home, I try to stick closely to your pet's typical routine and treat your home with care, keeping it clean and tidy so it feels untouched while you're away. I'll also send regular updates to keep you connected and informed. I'm always mindful of safety throughout every visit. I watch for hazards, double-check leashes before walks, and carefully research any medications to ensure they're given correctly and on schedule.
“Amber always does a really good job taking care of our girls!! (Harley-dog & Scarlet-cat) Harley had a little potty accident and Amber did an amazing cleaning it up and switching out her bed with another one in her crate. She let us know immediately about what was going on and made sure Harley was safe!!”

About: I have six current pet-sitting clients, three for whom I’ve pet-sat for five years! With these clients, I do overnight stays and/or drop-in care in the clients’ homes. I have ample experience with elderly pets. I can commit as much or as little time to your pets as needed. I am happy to spend all day giving them company or just stop by as needed! I will change my schedule to fit your needs. I prefer caring for pets in my clients’ homes where your pets are likely most comfortable. I leave my clients’ homes in the exact condition that I found them.
About: Loving and responsible dog sitter with a passion for caring for furry friends. Experienced in handling dogs of all sizes and breeds, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-exercised. Reliable, attentive, and ready to provide your pet with the best care while you're away! Pet care is an amazing outlet to help clear your mind while also contributing to the health for both the pup and I in an enjoyable manor!! :)) When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure to follow their specific routines for feeding, walking, and playtime to keep everything familiar and comfortable for the pet. I provide lots of attention, love, and exercise to keep them happy and healthy. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, making sure they’re safe and relaxed at all times. Cleanliness and a calm environment are priorities, and I communicate regularly with the pet owner to update them on how their pet is doing!!

My cousin has a dog sitting business and I grew up taking care of animals of all sizes and ages with her! i loved every second of it. being able to come home to some of the cutest dogs or cats would put the biggest smile of my face.

I am available Monday-Thursday to do evening visits, walks, etc. I am available Friday - Sunday for all day care or visits! Depending on your needs I can be flexible through the week! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I strive to create a calm, loving, and safe environment that mirrors your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible.

In my home, pets are treated like family with plenty of attention, play, and a cozy spot to relax. I always prioritize cleanliness, safety, and comfort, making sure your pet is happy, healthy, and well-loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very young, frequently helping neighbors and friends as well as daily caring for my own. In all the work I do, I’m very detail oriented and perceptive; pets are important parts of families, and the way that you desire for your pet to be cared for is very important to me! I will seek to serve your family to the best of my ability. I am currently employed with a local ministry part time that allows much flexibility in my schedule. I will soon be pursuing a Masters in Social Work this fall, but have plenty of time this summer to help out with your pups! I love being outside and going on long walks!! There are several dog parks near my home as well as plenty of open green space. I know plenty of walking paths that I think your dogs would love!
About: I have had a dog ever since I was born, and am now 24 years old! I helped train my newest dog, so I have a lot of experience in puppy training. My last dog unfortunately had to have her leg amputated when she got older, so I also have experience with disabled dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for years, so I am good with all kinds of dogs- big and small, anxious and energetic, etc. Whenever one of my friends is out of town, I am their go-to pet sitter. I pet sit for a lot of my friend’s cats, so while I’ve never had one, I know how to take care of them. My dog, Rosie, is my entire world, so I know how important your pets are to you! I will treat them as if they are my own :). I do have a full-time job, but it is very flexible. I am able to leave during the day if needed for your pet! My nights are always free too, so I am able to house-sit. Your pet will be my #1 priority in my routine! I will keep your pet safe with my life! I will ensure they are on a leash when outside and make sure they are comfortable and getting their exercise in. Inside, I love to play with them! I will ensure no doors are left open so they can’t slip outside to maintain their safety. But I will make sure they are having fun while inside!

About: Hi! My name is Sabrina and I’m a second year optometry student at The Ohio State University! My first job at 13 was taking care of my next door neighbor’s dog. She loved me so much that she referred me to a few other people within the neighborhood. They relied on me to walk, feed, give medications, among other responsibilities. I never had the opportunity to have my own furry friend, so I loved dedicating my time to helping others with theirs :) I’m a second year optometry student looking for an easy and fun way to make some extra money! My schedule for school keeps me pretty busy, but I do have time to fit in some pet sitting jobs! I love pets and love being active, so walking dogs definitely is within my ballpark (no pun intended). If your pet loves to have someone keeping them company I’m the same way!
About: I’m an animal lover that wants to give your pet the best vacation experience possible! I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in capable hands. I have experience taking care of my own dog for 10 years. I also have great knowledge of how to handle a variety of problems with various pets, and will adhere to each and every one of their personal needs. I’m comfortable with administering any medication or taking any special care for an individual pet’s needs. Making your pet feel comfortable and happy when away from you is my top priority. Please feel free to contact me with any questions! I currently work from home and make my own hours, so I’m very flexible and can give your pet round-the-clock care whenever and however they need it. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly pup of my own that gets daily walks and enrichment toys. I’m able to adhere to a dog’s normal routine in their own home to keep stress to a minimum while their owner is away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in New Rome is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 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 November 2026, there are 2,452 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New Rome. 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 New Rome. 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 New Rome 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 New Rome. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
