Leann was great! Our pup had surgery and she was extra cautious with him. Asked questions. She truly cares and was a great help for us! Thank you! Highly recommend her and she'll be my first request in the future!!

About: DEDICATED TO YOUR PET ONLY when sitting! I only allow one reservation at a time. I raised a beloved 4 year old dog named Leo and recently lost him to an immune disease. I’m passionate about sharing my love for pets and experiences with others. I enjoy spending time with dogs, taking them on walks, and have a great fenced-in yard for their safety and enjoyment. Let me provide a caring and loving environment for your furry friend. I do not always update my availability, so please reach out if you don’t see a date that works! I work from home Monday & Friday. I’m also around most weekends. I like being active and outdoors. My fenced it yard would be great place for us to play! I no longer have a dog and will only have one dog at a time for sitting. This will allow for safety and prevent issues. My yard is fenced in and my house is clean and safe.

About: Between my own family and my wife's, I've had alot of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I've house sat for elderly dogs and raised and trained our own puppy. I've rescued half a dozen lost dogs from our neighborhood. Every dog I meet gets lots of love and yours would be no exception! We already have our miniature poodle pup Winston, so your pup would fit right in with us! I am working from home the vast majority of the time and if I was gone, my wife would be there. As the kid who was always the first to notice when a dog needed to go out and do its business, I'm very attentive to the needs of all dogs. Your pup will be a part of our family during their stay and kept company by my whole family.

Erin was a life saver this week! With my husband out of town for a week and me with my hands full with a three year old and baby, getting out to walk our energetic and LOUD husky was going to be a challenge. Erin was always right on time and such a great communicator. I liked and trusted her immediately and Aurora Dog warmed up to her right away as well. She started waiting at the door for her in the morning. Thank you so much Erin!

About: Ever since I can remember I've always had a dog in my house, all different kinds. My own, and some of my parents fostered or took in temporarily from friends. I'm ready to walk, run, play, or nap with your pupper or kitty! Some of my favorite things are walks, fetch with a ball, and blowing bubbles. I have a dog named Wheezer and a cat named Titan. I'm so excited to meet you and your furry family members, thank you so much for your consideration! I am currently self employed in theatre (in the process of creating my own company) and have lots of spare time, especially during the day, to help take care of your pets! I have a high functioning car, and am ready to travel to you and your pet and/or being them to their favorite park! I live in an apartment, so my current favorite way to help out is to come to you and your furry friend!

About: I love dogs and have a fenced in yard for them to play. 🐾 I am knowledgeable about dog behavior and recognize signs of illness or distress. I have experience with potty training, medication administration, and reinforcing basic training commands. I work day shift while my husband, Chad, works evening shift. One of us are home most of the time - there might be a few hours in the afternoon/evening when we both work. We crate our pups when they’re home alone and have a dog camera to monitor them closely. I have a fenced in yard and lots of space inside my home for pups to make themselves comfortable. In my home, dogs are welcome on furniture and will receive lots of pets and playtime. I will maintain a safe, clean, and loving environment for our fur babies.

About: I provide reliable, personalized care, with experience in puppy training basics and senior pet support, including medication assistance, patience, and attentive daily routines for every pet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine by scheduling dedicated time for visits, walks, feeding, play, and check-ins around my other responsibilities. I prioritize consistency, making sure each pet receives care at the same times each day when possible, which helps maintain their routine and comfort. I also build flexibility into my schedule to accommodate different pet needs, whether that’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening care. On a weekly basis, I plan ahead to ensure availability, manage bookings, and stay organized so each pet gets reliable, attentive, and uninterrupted care. I care for pets by following their established routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. In a client’s home, I maintain a calm, familiar environment to reduce stress, keep everything clean, and ensure pets feel safe and comfortable. I provide plenty of attention, supervision, and enrichment activities tailored to each pet’s personality and energy level. I also respect the home, follow all instructions carefully, and provide regular updates with messages and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

Kari was great and very professional. Even though my pup was just a little too rambunctious on their walk Kari did the professional thing, and let me know for his safety it wasn’t a great fit, and I very much appreciated her honesty and professionalism! Once I get my pup some extra training we do hope to use Kari in the future!

Rozalyn picked up a week of walks on very short notice and did a wonderful job with my dog. She was very knowledgeable on how to get him mental stimulation in the face of Smokey hot conditions when a walk wasn’t safe on one of the days. I’d recommend her!

Summer is very genuine, timely and kind. She has been so great with our two dogs - one high energy JR pup and a soft of a pittie mix who is 9. They love their walks with her. We are grateful she’s so close and someone one we fully trust with our fur family.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Oakdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Oakdale on Rover is $19.98 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 5,428 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Oakdale. 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 Oakdale. 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 Oakdale.

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 Oakdale. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
