About: I have been working part time with Rover for several years. I recently had to put my 13-year-old lab down, so I do not currently have any pets. Animals are the brightest part of our world and nothing makes me happier than spending time with doggies and kitties. I currently volunteer for PALS, a program under Meals on Wheels, that provides food for animals in senior homes. I loved to walk my dog and would be more than happy to provide dog walking services to others on the weekends. I work weekdays, but am available after 5 pm and will work Saturdays, and Sundays. I cannot wait to get started and meet all the sweet babies! I currently work weekdays, but can devote time after work and weekends. I can utilize lunch breaks to check on pets and nights and weekends for more one on one time. I own a home with a fenced in yard for my dog. I will do anything and everything to ensure your animal’s safety and happiness.
“I’m very grateful that Abi was able to step in for a last minute request. She did a great job arriving in a timely manner and Coco loved her! Would definitely recommend her (:”
About: First thing you need to know before requesting me is I do have a full time job in Austin and work long hours but I do stay in home for overnight care. I love watching and caring for pets but want to make sure they are ok for long periods of time. Now about me, I have had a variety of many pets since I was a child. I was in 4-H for rabbits as a kid. I have been volunteering with dog rescues for over 12 years. I have watched up to 13 dogs in one house at one time. My specialty care is tending to older dogs & dog selective dogs. I have watched several dog rescues home base animals as well. I administrate medications, re-wrap bandaged wounds,change diapers, give eye drops etc. I have watched many dogs with different temperaments and not much will scare me away. I will take your pets to the vet if needed for appointments. I am willing, and love, to watch every kind of animal! I have been petsitting for over 6 years & have a plethora of references. My fiancé & I personally have two dogs, JRT/Beagle mix and a Lab/Pittie mix, retic snake & a ball python snake. I can handle any situation that may arrise while you are away. I water plants, get mail, bring packages in, and most importantly love and care for your pets! I will always send pictures and video updates of your pets aswell! I have also taken a pet cpr/first aid course. I work remotely and can fit drop in visits or of I have access to wifi I can work from your home as well. Weekends are a little more flexible. I always make sure, especially after storms, that the fenced areas are still secure. If using a leash I ensure the collar/harness are secure and wrap the leash around my wrists to prevent the leash falling out of my hands.
About: Ive got extensive dog care experience, starting at age 15 on my family farm in California with various dogs! I am comfortable with all sizes! I have alot of experience with senior pups, reactive dogs, and hyper golden doodles! I currently own a very special needs pitbull that is 90 pounds. I am up for the task! I currently work 9 to 5 Monday-Fridays and am off on the weekends and available all day! If you need more time just let me know!

About: I’ve had my dog for 7 years and have cared for and watched many family and friends pets for my whole life! I love cats and dogs and all animals. Have volunteered at animal shelters as well. I work full time remote, but I have plenty of time during my day to hang out with your pet! I can even bring my work laptop with me if needed. Available weekends too! I will cater every pet to their owners needs. I can help crate, feed, play, anything they need. I have an older husky, so I understand the importance of a fenced yard and extra care.
About: Great Dane owner who helped raise GD 16 puppies. Bark Bites Dog Treat founder providing loving, experienced care focused on safety, structure, and healthy lifestyles🐾 Full-time dog lover, Bark Bites baker, and walker. I create custom dog cakes and dedicate my daily routine to caring for pets 🐾 🤍 🦴 I provide in-home care with structured walks, fresh food and water, clean environments, and constant supervision to ensure pets stay safe, comfortable, and healthy ❣️🐾
About: I have owned dogs my entire life, raising puppies and rescuing dogs. Since the age of 12, I have been entrusted to watch dogs belonging to others in their homes and in my own home. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, potty breaks, play dates, and also have experience with a senior dog who required a diaper. One other special circumstance I have experience with is a female dog who required care during her period. I can also take care of other responsibilities in the home such as laundry, cleaning, and collecting mail as I have in the past. I am a full time student, but only have three scheduled classes Monday-Thursday which leaves me plenty of time to care for your pets. I am available throughout the day for drop-ins and will normally be able to stay for a couple hours to spend time with your pet so they are not lonely or crated all day. I can also stay overnight every night of the week if needed. I believe that the best care for your pet is the most attentive and loving environment. In your home, I will make an effort to play with your pet, snuggle them if they like, and feed them and walk them as instructed. I will follow any and all boundaries laid out.
About: - I love pets and I love photography and I would love to surprise you with some high resolution portrait photography of your pets while helping to take care of them for you! - I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was just a wee lad & I have owned and trained two dogs myself! I once looked after 11 puppies and their mamma for over a week! I have recently moved to Austin, TX and I am working as a freelance photographer! This means my hours are more open than most people with more contemporary jobs, and it means your pets will be able to see me possibly even more often than they would normally see you! I have experience cooking specialized pet cuisine for sensitive stomachs and dietary restrictions (my dog ate home-cooked meals), I love walks and pet play time, and I respect your pet's boundaries.
About: I’ve always loved animals and started pet sitting when I was 15. I’ve taken care of many sizes and types, from small dachshunds and cats to big golden doodles. I also grew up with two dogs who I frequently babysit when my mama is out of town. I’m experienced in walking, feeding, boarding and consoling animals who miss their owners (: I am home full time all week during the summer. I have my own cat who does get along well with other dogs and cats. I love to play with animals and I’ll make sure to keep your pet entertained while I’m visiting. I have a fenced in yard at my home. If they get along with other dogs, i’ll let them hang out at the nearby dog park as well.
“Brooke is amazing! She is so good with my pups. They are young and maybe a little wild, but Brooke is so patient with them. I have absolutely no worries when they are with her. I think they may enjoy walking with her even more than me! :) Brooke has been flexible and is very dependable. So glad we found her!”
“Gladys did an excellent job taking care of my fur baby. She communicates well and is punctual. She let me know how the weather is while I was away so we could take the appropriate actions. Professional and sweet I will definitely use her again.”
About: Hi there :) I absolutely love dogs and i know that they are man's best friend. I cant wait to meet your best friend for a play fun outdoors day. I will make sure to keep our best friend happy and busy. Im sure you dont want to see your partner at home sad and alone while you’re away. So lets keep them busy and healthy. Im also a fur mama so i will make sure they will be happy and very playful together. My baby loves company. She's always looking for a friend every time we go to the dog park or for a long walk around the block on a beautiful day of summer. Hope to hear from you soon. Best wishes. Mell and Zoe. ❤🐶

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in New Sweden on Rover is $11.32 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 6,550 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New Sweden. 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 Sweden. 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 Sweden.
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 Sweden. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
