“Cassidy is an AMAZING walker for my Millie girl! She gives her all the love and I trust she’s in capable hands every day for her midday walk. Millie can be a bit of a puller/barker on walks and Cassidy handles her perfectly. She is a great communicator with anything going on (even random repair people showing up at my house). I so much appreciate the love she shows my baby.”
About: I have been an animal lover all of my life, and was raised with 5 huskies. Since then, I’ve had a variety of animals, including a salamander, chinchillas, ferrets, dogs, cats, and hamsters. I'm looking for clients who will not mind if my son tags along for a visit or a walk, and an excuse to get us both out of the house (walking is a bonus!). I have experience working as a dog trainer with shelter and rescue dogs, so difficult behaviors are no issue! I would love to take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! I currently work 3-4 days a week and have availability Fridays thru Mondays (sometimes Tuesdays) to help care for your critters while you take long weekend getaways :) I treat a client’s home with respect, and do my very best follow routines as closely to what you do as I can. My goal is to provide safe, secure care thag you can rely on.
“Matt does an excellent job on walking my pup during the week. He has great communications letting me know when he is on his way and how things go on the walk with plenty of pictures.”
About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a young girl. I know a lot about body language, feeding routines, and behavior. I have no issues with any pets, as long as they don't bite! I work a full time job as a barista, hours ranging between 4:30a-3:30p sometimes even as late as 4:00 (I try to change my availability on Rover as I get my work schedule!), but I want to incorporate my pet care calling into my life, so I decided to pick this up as a part time! Caring for your animal, depending on dog or cat, I will have them leashed outside when walking, and monitor when outside in a fenced in yard, or given treats!
About: I was working in a Dog daycare for 5 years before I started my own business. In that time I also received my dog training certificate. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs in my time working with animals. Pet care is my full time job. All I need are the days you're looking for and I can add you onto my schedule. I also offer limited services on the weekends I travel to my clients for the services requested. Depending on the set up of the clients house determines how I go about looking after the animal. I always request that vet information be readily available just incase anything happens and I generally like to meet the animal first to make sure they are comfortable with me before I commit to working with them.
“Jessica was absolutely fantastic! She was prompt in her responses, incredibly reliable, and took great care of my pups. From the start, her communication was clear and professional, and I always felt confident knowing my dogs were in good hands. She showed genuine care and attention, which means a lot as a dog owner. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Jessica again and will absolutely look to book her whenever possible. Highly recommend!”
“Alexandra has done an excellent job checking in on my puppy! She makes sure my girl has enough water, snacks, and exercise. Even with puppy behavior, Alexandra doesn’t seem to shy away from my lil girl! Would definitely recommend booking her for your walking/check in needs.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet owner currently owned by three cats—Chewy, Peanut, and Tigger 😸 With 30+ years of hands-on animal care experience, I know every pet has their own personality, routines, and very specific opinions. I’m comfortable caring for cats and dogs with a variety of needs, including medical support—my cat Chewy has asthma, so I’m experienced with daily treatments and paying attention when something seems off. I’ve also cared for dogs of different sizes, from my own growing up to helping with my brother’s Great Dane. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I’ll care for them with patience, reliability, and the same attention I’d want for my own pets. Since I work from home in Hummelstown, I have flexibility in my schedule that makes pet care a great fit. I intentionally keep my service area close to home so I can reliably stop by in the morning, during lunch, and after work for visits, walks, feedings, or check-ins. I’d rather provide consistent, attentive care to nearby pets than overextend myself. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routines and feel safe in their own environment. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any little quirks or preferences that make your pet comfortable. Safety is very important to me, whether that means double-checking doors and gates, following leash safety, being mindful of food restrictions, or simply paying attention if a pet seems stressed or not acting like themselves. As a longtime pet owner—including caring for a cat with daily medical needs—I know how important attentiveness and consistency are. I also understand the trust involved in having someone care for your pets and enter your home, and I take that responsibility seriously.
“Ashley takes such good care of my boy Samson when I’m away. I never have to worry. She’s always on time and spends plenty of time with him. He enjoys seeing her every time.”
“Michele is absolutely awesome!! She has taken away all our worries with leaving our spoiled pup on long work days. Michele was so friendly when we met her and it was great knowing how familiar she is with dogs. Every walk Michele has provided pictures and a little summary of how our dog was that day. Cannot recommend enough! She’s so great!!”
“Amanda is the best there is! She is always on-time, completely transparent and trustworthy, my dogs love her and I can have a worry free day knowing that she’s caring for my crew of fur-kids. Book with her!”
“Siyani is absolutely AMAZING! My rescued pup is a reactive dog, and it’s usually very difficult for him to warm up to new people,!especially when it comes to walks or being cared for by someone new. But with Siyani, he felt safe right away!! She has such a calm, kind energy that made Toby comfortable and confident, which is something I honestly didn’t think I would find outside of our family. Finding someone who can handle a rescue pup with patience and love is rare, and Siyani has completely earned my trust. This experience gave me the peace of mind I needed, and now I know I’ve found my go-to sitter for Toby, not only for dog walks but also for when I travel. I couldn’t recommend her enough!!”
“We have used Abby a few times now to watch our dog Penny when we travel. All of the other reviews are spot on, she is dependable, prompt and so good with our dog. Even when we sprung on her that medication had to be added to the food for a time! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Abby.”
“So thankful for Dani! We had something come up last minute and she quickly replied that she was available to walk our dog. She was great at communicating about their trip. Will definitely confide in her in the future to take care of our pup!”

Cassidy walked my Millie girl almost every weekday while I was at work for 6 months. She’s been fantastic with my crazy girl and we will both miss her very much (we are moving). She’s very thoughtful and kind to my baby even when she can be a bit of a pain on walks. Appreciate her patience and love! Wishing her all the best. 😭❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Palmyra on Rover is $16.65 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 1,870 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Palmyra. 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 Palmyra. 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 Palmyra.

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 Palmyra. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
