“Melanie was an excellent dog-walker! Incredibly reliable and communicative. She did a great job taking care of my dog, Theo, and I will absolutely be booking her in the future!”
“Trevor was amazing! Took a last minute scheduled walk and made sure that my shy/hesitant dog was comfortable. He really went above and beyond and it was soooo appreciated. He was quick and through in his communications.”
About: I’ve had a dog for 12 years and family and friends have trusted me to take care of their dogs and give them the proper care. I am playing in a summer baseball league and I work at a summer camp for 4 weeks so during that time I’ll only be available on weekends but when that isn’t happening I am mostly available during the day. I routinely feed and walk my dog at home and go to my friend’s home when they are on vacation to feed and let their dog out.
About: I have a dog currently and have taken care of him for 7+ years! He loves to play, I taught him how to handshake, sit, lay down, and to play fetch. I have a welcoming energy so pets love me! I am friendly and above and beyond when it comes to taking care of pets! I have a Doggy of my own! I took care of him for 7 years and he eats well. He loves to play and has a lot of energy just like me so we get along well!! I have a certain schedule for him so he is well taken care of. I take My dog on walks, feed him at the times given, make sure he are occupied with play time and he enjoys his time! I also clean his paws and wipe his face and coat with doggy wipes so he smells nice and is clean.
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Angela! I booked her last minute on a Friday because my cousin’s family and I were going away to a wedding, and we needed urgent care for our pets. She responded so quickly, was incredibly understanding of the situation, and immediately put my mind at ease. Throughout the weekend she sent constant updates and pictures, which meant the world to us. She even stepped in to care for another pet I added last minute—without hesitation—and did it all with such care and professionalism. Truly, I could not have asked for anyone better. If you put your pets in her hands, you can trust they will be loved, safe, and so well taken care of. She was amazing, and I am beyond thankful for her help. I would absolutely love to book with her again in the future.”
“Amelia is the best!!! She’s been so very patient with our dog, Leah, who has major anxiety issues. She’s always prompt and timely in her communication. Leah just adores her and that makes us very happy.”
“Teffni is so sweet and communicative, and she had to deal with a lot: my dog not wanting to walk in the rain and the front desk attendant giving her a hard time. Really appreciated her help.”
“Rosemery has been great for our walking needs. She is always flexible with scheduling and very attentive. Our dog is always excited for their walks. I will have Rosemery as my go-to for caring for my pup!”
“Amanda was great! We have a small, super friendly but high energy dog that will not sleep through the night unless she’s had enough exercise. Inanna slept through the night after just one 30 minute walk with Amanda. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Whitney is an excellent walker! Sully was immediately excited and eager to meet her and was clearly very happy after the walk. I’ve already booked a second walk with Whitney!”
“Excellent walker. We could not be happier! Communicative and takes great photos. Always on time. Our dog can be a little shy with strangers and she was very patient with him. Would book again.”
About: Hello! My name is Sylvia. I have several years of experience pet sitting dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits, although I’m open to all kinds of animals. Since my family does not currently have an animal to keep us company, I jump at every opportunity to walk, feed, and spend time with any pet. I am currently home for the summer, so I’ll have plenty of time to play! I am also babysitting on the side, but my hours are very flexible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize making sure the dogs feel safe and comfortable with plenty of attention and exercise while the owners are away. I understand every pet has unique habits and personality, so I try to stick to the routine they know.
About: I’ve had multiple dogs all of my life. From taking care of their basic needs to cuddling and playing, I am there! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m very available, only working on some side projects this summer! I can fit almost anything into my schedule! No matter what your pets needs are I can accommodate! I am very respectful of anyone’s home and will keep all behaviors limited to what is comfortable with the owners. I am very cleanly and will clean up after pets if needed.
“Melika is very communicative and does a fantastic job. I’m very pleased with the work she does and the loving way she cares for Loki. I hope I get to use her services frequently.”
About: Hi! I’m Juliana, a lifelong dog lover and proud mom to Panela, a sweet Yorkie mix, and Milo, my spirited little Chihuahua. Having two very different personalities at home has taught me how to read each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and quirks, whether that’s a high-energy walker who needs to burn off steam or a smaller, more anxious pup who just wants gentle reassurance. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight boarding right here in the DC area. Because I get around mostly on foot and by bike, I know my neighborhood inside and out, including the best walking routes, quiet streets, and nearby parks, which means your dog gets a real outing, not just a quick lap around the block. During boarding stays, your pup will have a calm, attentive home environment and become part of the routine Panela and Milo already know and love. I send photo and video updates during every visit so you always know your dog is safe, happy, and having a good time. I’d love to set up a meet-and-greet so we can make sure it’s a great match before booking! “I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed in around a 9-to-5. For walks and drop-in visits, I’m able to check in for feeding times, potty breaks, and play sessions throughout the day, with flexibility for visits if your schedule needs it. For boarding stays, your dog becomes part of my daily routine, joining me for walks, meals, and downtime at home with Panela and Milo, so they get consistent care and company around the clock rather than being left alone for long stretches. My two dogs, Panela (a Yorkie mix) and Milo (a Chihuahua), are both friendly and well socialized, so your dog will have some good company during their stay. My home is set up to be safe and comfortable for small to medium breeds, with secure spaces for rest and play. I keep a close eye on new dogs at first to make sure everyone settles in well together, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine for feeding, walks, and bedtime.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in North Kensington is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Kensington
Jana was amazing! She was very patient and understanding, even when we forgot to leave the key for her to access Bella (completely our fault!). We really appreciated her flexibility and kindness. Bella was happy, got plenty of treats, and was clearly well cared for. We would definitely book Jana again. Thank you!
Concetta is terrific with my dog Riley, and she’s very responsive and great at communicating. She also asked many detailed questions about Riley that demonstrates how much she knows about dogs and her conscientious about taking care of them and ensuring that they’re comfortable.
Cannot possibly overstate how wonderful Bianca was to us and Kona. We had to adjust days and times twice and she adjusted in the app and was extremely malleable, assertive and professional about everything. We added extra walks before leaving town and she was able to accommodate. We never waited on a response, she was always present when we needed to communicate. Bianca exudes trust, efficiency and professionalism - an extremely kind, gentle but assertive presence. Kona is pretty big/strong and sometimes difficult, reactive to other dogs and we were very anxious using rover walking services for the very first time - she provided the ease of mind we so desperately needed. Incredibly detailed feedback and tracking of every single walk, pee, etc… multiple pictures. Whenever we leave town and need help with Kona, we will be crossing our fingers that Bianca is available.
Katherine does an excellent job with Otto. He is a very spirited pup and doesn’t always have the best walking etiquette (we’re working on it!) and Katherine handles it beautifully. He always excited to see her and it’s clear he feels safe with her. Katherine is also punctual, dependable and personable.

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 North Kensington. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Kensington. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
