About: Hi there! I’m Sophie, I am a firm believer in using walks and playtime to bond with a dog and get them more comfortable with me. (That’s how I won over the puppy that replaced me when I went to college). I have a similar philosophy towards cats, but with a whole lot more playtime and a whole lot less outside time 😆. I am a recent college graduate and I’m working on my applications to get a job in my field, so I have time to spend all day with your pet. Just let me know what you need! Whatever works for you, I can do! I have no set schedule so I can come by any time. I do prefer to make my visits at least an hour long so they have the chance to get used to me. I will work with what’s available to me. If I’m visiting your home to keep them company I will play with their favorite toys and find their favorite spots to hang out in. I’ll play with their dogs outside if you have a fence, and I try to let them guide where we go on walks.
“Michael is a wonderful dog walker. My dog gets so excited to see him. Michael takes very good care of my dog and always goes above and beyond. He has brought my garbage cans in and will bring packages in also. He is very sweet to my dog and gives great updates and pictures of each walk. It Gives me great comfort knowing my dog is in good hands. I highly recommend Michael S!!!!”
“Danielle was so good with our dogs. She connected with them beautifully and they wait for her arrival everyday. She is truly dog aunt as she is kind and does not mind and extra few minutes if it takes care of the dog. Very happy with her sincerity and would highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs since I was in elementary school. We have 5 cats and 5 dogs of our own. I am a certified foster for the SPCA and several other rescues. I take medical cases and am comfortable giving medicines. All ages of pets and needs welcome! Pets are my number 1 priority. I make my schedule around the pets I am caring for! I treat them like my own and their needs come first ! I have a 6 foot fenced in yard and take dogs into my own when needed. Otherwise I watch dogs in their own environment to make them as comfortable as possible when their owners are away.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have spent my life caring for them, including fostering in the past. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for family, friends, and neighbors, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, punctual, and committed to giving each dog the attention and exercise they need. I enjoy being outdoors and going on walks, so your dog will get plenty of activity and care. From playtime to cuddles, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I’m starting a sonography program this summer, so I’m looking to pick up some extra work in the meantime! I’m currently available Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and I’m happy to be flexible within that schedule to meet pets’ needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, prioritizing safety, comfort, and routine. I ensure the environment is clean, calm, and pet-proofed, and I closely follow each pet’s normal feeding, walking, and play routines. I pay attention to individual needs and any special instructions, and of course provide plenty of love and attention, along with updates so owners feel informed and confident while they’re away.
About: I have taken care of friends and family’s fur babies for years and now looking to help others! I have house/dog sat many times including puppies and elder dogs. I have a ton of patience and love for animals which allows me to connect with each pet and give them the care they need. I currently work full time from home. This allows me to have a flexible schedule and be able to do check ins/walks during the week. I am usually free weekends as well. I follow any instructions given by the fur parents. You know your fur baby the best so I make sure I follow the routine as closely as possible.
About: I’ve had animals in my life since I was 7 years old, so caring for pets has always been a big part of who I am! I’m 23 now and have plenty of experience taking care of animals independently, from meeting their daily needs to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I have trained puppies and taken care of kittens, and I've also taken care of elderly cats and dogs. As an occupational therapy student, I’ve developed strong empathy, patience, and an understanding that everyone has different needs and personalities. I bring that same approach to animals by paying attention to their individual needs, respecting their routines, and helping them feel at ease. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! As an occupational therapy student working toward my doctorate, I have a busy but flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care. I am available after classes and on my days off, which gives me opportunities to provide pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I am organized and responsible when balancing my schoolwork with other commitments, and I can work with pet owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I look forward to making pet sitting a rewarding part of my routine while providing reliable, loving care for your pets! When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their usual routines to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I will follow all instructions regarding feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any other specific needs. I also make sure to give each pet plenty of attention, affection, and patience while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I prioritize their well being and make sure owners feel confident that their pets are in loving, responsible hands. I am also happy to provide updates and photos so you can see how your furry family member is doing.

“This was our first time using Rover and it was an amazing experience. Even though our dog was being stubborn at first, Olivia, our walker, was caring and patient with our dog, Zuzu, and soon won her over. Olivia kept us up to date, spent time with Zuzu, and is absolutely trustworthy. I highly recommend using Olivia as a walker. She’s the best!!”
About: I own 3 Labrador Retrievers of my own, and have professionally trained service dogs for the last 5 years as a volunteer, for the non profit organization, Canine Companions for Independence. I am very experienced in caretaking of dogs of all sizes. I have cared for neighbors Jack Russel Terriers, Great Danes, Golden Retrievers, Boxers, and more so I am very knowledgeable on all types and personalities of dogs. I am currently working a part-time job, so I have plenty of time to take your pups for a nice walk to get their energy out. If you have more than one dog, no worries because I do too! So I am very comfortable with walking more than just one dog at a time. I am perfectly okay with driving, so when it comes to needing your pups walked I am more than willing to come walk them whether that's around your own neighborhood or a near by park (whichever you are more comfortable with).
About: I have done a pretty good job of taking care of my own dog for a few years now as well as doing a good job taking care of my families dogs as well. I believe I am capable of doing so for others. I also believe I would be capable of fulfilling any other asks from the dogs owners. I am currently searching for a part time job but have a pretty flexible schedule as it is. Would be able to fit in some dog care whenever I have free time! I care for my pet by giving them constant care and making sure they stay on schedule for walks and food. If a dog has any other needs I make sure to make note of it and to make it
“Abigail was absolutely wonderful! She arrived exactly as discussed and immediately gave us peace of mind knowing our little guy was in great hands. I especially appreciated that she has experience with Chihuahuas and understands their little quirks and specific needs. She knew that Chihuahuas typically aren’t fans of the rain, so she actually planned ahead and made sure to come before the rain started so he could get his walk in comfortably. That level of thoughtfulness really stood out to us! She even went above and beyond by bringing in our Amazon packages that were delivered while we were away. It’s those little extra touches that make such a difference. Abigail is reliable, attentive, thoughtful, and clearly genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. We would absolutely recommend her and will happily use her again! 🐾❤️”
“Wendy is fantastic! She is so nice, professional and was extremely flexible when we had to change our plans which was incredibly appreciated. When she first came to our apartment for a meet & greet she came with a folder she had put together herself which I was very impressed by (and shows she goes above and beyond). Our dog Nola instantly felt comfortable with Wendy and I could tell Wendy was someone we can trust. A few days after our meet & greet Wendy took Nola for a walk and Nola absolutely loved it! Wendy was also extremely communicative which I thought was really great. I was away at the time so it was so nice to get updates and I really appreciated how she kept me informed along the way. I plan to book again. 5 stars! :)”
About: I had a multiple dogs growing up, one who is 11 years old now, and also am a Fur Mom to a golden retriever. I am an animal lover and just want to be helpful since I use rover myself for sitters, and i figured I’d be just as helpful as the many sitters on here have been for me!! I work full time but that is just 3 days a week, so any other day I am available most of the day to accommodate your fur babies! My schedule does change every week though I live in an apartment complex but have access to a dog park within the complex and will be able to take your pups to local dog parks as well

Christine was a last minute booking and she was able to walk paisley for me, which was so great having that peace of mind that she was being taken care of at such short notice. Paisley loved meeting her and I know enjoyed the walk and the company. I will be booking with Christine again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Newtown is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $34 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 9,097 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Newtown. 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 Newtown. 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 Newtown 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 Newtown. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
