Gio was an excellent dog walker. She helped me when my current dog walker could not continue walking buddy. She reported all the details of the visit efficiently and gave us peace of mind. She was informative and responsible. This was my first time using rover and I had a great experience thanks to Gio. She has a true love for dogs and what she does. I will definitely work with her in the future.

Michael walked our two big dogs for all of the college football games we attended this season. He was always on time and took our dogs for a nice long walk. He has helped us out many times and has always been very professional and caring with our dogs.

Our dogs love Helena! She is very kind, caring, and punctual. Our dogs loves Helena’s warm personality and they greet her with lots of love. Our little cavapoo Whitney is typically fearful and a little anxious at times. Whitney has quickly warmed up to Helena and not as anxious doing the transfer of leash at the door. Thank you so much Helena for your love, care and patience you give our fur babies.

About: I work full time remotely. I love pets and have grown up with various kinds of pets my whole life. Im very comfortable with them and love to cater to them. I am a responsible professional that also uses this app for my beloved dog and know how it feels to want your pet to be safe and happy while in the care of someone else. I work through the week but have weekends available to take care of your pet while away. I too have a little chihuahua mix that needs attention when I’m away. I understand loving your fur friend but having other obligations and being in need of someone to tend to them. My little pooch is friendly and loves other dogs. He totally vaccinated and has his rabies shots as well. I will have your dog in doors however will take them for walk to get fresh air at your request. I live in pet friendly apartment accommodation with dog parks throughout it.

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.

Any time through Tuesday-Saturday I provide the space in the house, i have a yard where they can use. I do allow dogs to roam almost anywhere inside if potty trained

My pup Brandice is sometimes a little hesitant around new people but during the meet and greet with Kayla she ran right up to her for pets. Kayla's experience with reactive dogs put me at ease knowing she would be able to handle some of Brandice's quirks. I appreciated the updates and photos that were sent after each walk. I would totally recommend her to anyone in the area for drop-in's and walks and will definitely book again in the future!

Naomi did a fantastic job taking great care of our three rambunctious dogs while we were away on vacation. Walking them twice daily, sending photos on daily walks, and checking in. It was a relief to see them so happy and well cared for while we were away. Naomi was very kind and gentle with our dogs even though they have a tendency to pull and she kept us updated thru text messages. Since we arrived back home our dogs have been sitting in the window looking for Naomi most especially around the normal times she would arrive. I would not hesitate to have Naomi care for our pups again. Very consistent and reliable, Thank you Naomi for your great care and kindness!

We went on vacation for a week and were so happy to find Jonathan. He was very responsive and made sure our dog was well taken care of. He sent us photos and videos of her walks and the time he spent with her. This helped to assure us that she wasn’t lonely while we were gone. He was also extremely flexible and we were able to add on services at the last minute. Thanks so much! We would definitely book with Jonathan in the future.

FAQs for Dog Walking - North Kensington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in North Kensington on Rover is $17.12 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 17,126 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across North Kensington. 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 North Kensington. 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 North Kensington.

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 North Kensington. On Rover:

  • 89% 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 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.
