About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since as early as I can remember. Honestly I get along with animals better then people! We've always had a dog and more recently cats. My in-laws ask for my help when they take a trip and I am always happy to help! Currently I am caring for my kids during most of the day but I am open on evenings and weekends as needed! I'll try to fit anything in that I can! I'll always greet the animals first and make sure they are comfortable with me. Then I check for water and food. Once I make sure those are good we are off for play time or walk time!

About: I am experienced in caring for senior and special needs pets, as well as administering oral, transdermal, or injection based medications. I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all temperments, personalities, sizes, and energy levels, as well as small animals including rodents, birds, and reptiles. I do not work a traditional job, so I am fortunate to be able to make loving and caring for your pets my priority without the rush! I take the safety and security of your pets and home very seriously, I treat your home with the utmost care and respect during visits. I tend to be pretty on top of communication, and I love sending owners picture and video updates of their pets. I know how upsetting it can be when you're missing your pets, and my goal ultimately to reduce the stress and uncertainty of both you and your pet while you're apart. I prefer to care for pets in their home if they are typically distressed outside of their normal environment. However, if you would prefer your pet be taken care of in my home, that's not a problem! I have a fenced in yard with lots of places to walk and parks nearby. We have a friendly Australian Shephard to keep your pets company, as well as plenty of activities and toys for enrichment. I strive to keep your pet on the same routine they have at home and add plenty of activity to reduce the distress they feel in your absence. We do have a cat who is more reserved and tends to stay in his room, as well as three kiddos, all around age 10 with unlimited energy and love for your animals. As far as transportation, I have an SUV with a doggy hammock and seatbelt for safe transport, as well as many different size pet carriers.

“Molly is the best!! Right from the start it’s obvious she’s a great human and a dog whisperer. Excellent and professional meet and greet…my pups instantly adored her. My older pup, Aba, was experiencing acute back pain during the meet and greet and it got worse after. Molly gave me awesome advice as she has worked with animals as a vet tech for years. She even let me last minute borrow her Assisi Loop (for pain) which helped so much. This was all out of the dog sitting window I had her booked for which was so kind. While we were out of town she gave excellent and honest updates, picked up the yard, lots of pics, LONG walks for the pups and even discarded some boxes we had sitting around that needed recycling. Above and beyond my pet sitting expectations…as a Rover sitter myself…so impressed!! I highly recommend Molly.”

“Laura has been absolutely wonderful with my nervous dog! She is incredibly patient and has been more than willing to help establish consistent routines that build his confidence and help him feel more comfortable. She communicates well, is very flexible with my schedule, and I always feel confident knowing he’s in good hands with her. I’m so grateful to have found her!”

“Barbara was very prompt with her responses and arranging a meet and greet before her first walk. Angel liked her right away! Everything went well on the first walk of the day, and Barbara communicated well about things so the second walk went even better. Thanks so much to Barbara for taking care of our senior German Shepherd, Angel!”

About: I have been taking care of primarily cats since I was 5 years old, but have come to love our canine friends just as much over the years, and have taken care of many friends' and family's furry family members over the years. I pride myself on being an attentive caregiver, with a respect for animals' unique personalities and boundaries, allowing me to take the time to gain each animal's trust in their own time. My days are currently very free and I am available for all your pet care needs. As a night owl myself, I also am more than happy to take on late night/early morning work for the pet owners with more late-night oriented schedules. I promise to always be an attentive caregiver for your pets, making sure I always know their location within the property, providing photo/video status updates if you'd like, and monitoring their behavior for signs of their moods and needs. As someone who works well within structure, any schedule you provide for regular care tasks will be followed to a T. I respect that while I am taking care of your companion I am in both your home and theirs and will treat the space with the utmost respect. Please do inform me ahead of starting of any areas that are restricted to your pet and any other expectations you have for your space so I can ensure that all things run as though you never left!

About: I've spent 13 years caring for my own dog, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. While I'm new to Rover, I'm excited to meet new furry friends and provide attentive, dependable care tailored to each pet's personality and routine. Whether it's a walk, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I'll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I'd love the opportunity to earn that trust! I currently have a flexible schedule while building my personal training business, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and companionship throughout the week, and I can work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet's needs. I understand how important consistency and routine are for animals, and I'll do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you're away! For dog walks, I prioritize your dog's safety and comfort while making sure they get to enjoy their time outside. I'll follow your preferred walking route, pace, and instructions, and make sure your dog is securely leashed before heading out. For drop-in visits, I'll follow your pet's usual routine, including feeding, refreshing their water, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I'll take the time to help them feel comfortable with me. I'll also provide updates and photos so you can feel reassured that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away!

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. I started taking care of dogs a little bit before I turned 10. I've taken care of my family's and friends' pets for many years. I've been relied on for feedings, walks, baths, and medications. I love dogs with all my heart. I always want to make sure that they feel loved and cared for. I am currently working a full time job, but try to make time for some pet sitting! I am able to do most morning pet sitting/dog walking. Fridays and Saturdays are always 50/50 since I'm working either one of those days, but can do evenings if I am working. I'm always off on Sundays, so I'm always free! I live in an apartment, so I make sure that my dog has plenty of opportunities to go outside for a walk. My dog has a schedule that we stick to that also works for her. I would make sure that I follow your dog's schedule and specific instructions. With me, your dog will get all the cuddles, love, and playtime they could ask for!

About: I've been a pet owner for as long as I can remember and have been a sitter of cats and dogs for the past fourteen years, both seniors and little ones alike. I am a full-time professional working hybrid so I have the flexibility to take your pet on walks, pay them visits at home, and have some play time. I have experience in pet walking, bathing, feeding, and administering medication. I would love to make sure your pet is safely cared for while you're away! I work a hybrid full-time job, so most of the week I am working from home. During this time, I can check on your pet as often as needed, or stay at your home full-time to ensure your pet has company or someone there for their needs at all times. I am all about making sure your pet is in the environment they, and you, feel most comfortable being in. I am able to keep them crated if you prefer.

Sadie is the best! She’s been walking Ace for almost two years now, and he absolutely loves her. He knows when she’s coming through the door and gets so excited every time! We’re so glad we found her and couldn’t ask for anyone better to take care of him. Highly recommend!

Andrey is awesome! I have 2 greyhounds which are a bit high maintenance because they are greyhounds and he took such great care of them. Took them to parks and long walks. They were always happy when I came home. I didn't have to worry. He always uploaded tons of pics which I like. Highly recommend him for your fur babies.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Paxtang

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Paxtang is $16 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $28 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 1,511 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Paxtang. 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 Paxtang. 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 Paxtang 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 Paxtang. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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.
