“Hon walked our sweet Maggie 3 times a week for over a month, while we adjusted to new work schedules. She loves him and he has always been a reliable, kind, and communicative walker for our family. We highly recommend working with him for any of your furry friends’ needs. He is fantastic, and we certainly plan on working with him again.”

“I couldn’t be happier with our experience! My two 60lb pups can have a lot of energy, but they handled them with total confidence and care. You can tell they genuinely love what they do. I also loved getting updates and photos after every walk. It gave me such peace of mind while I was at work. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable walker!”

About: I have been around dogs and puppies for as long as I can remember, and currently I have a 5 year old Maltese. She has lots of energy and I love playing with her! I've always gotten along perfectly fine with pets and I'm sure i'd be a great fit to take care of your fur baby. I'm very patient when it comes to taking care of pets so I could definitely manage with any sort of behavior that may arise! I am a college student and have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I love being around them, whether thats going on a walk or just playing inside! It’s all okay with me! I keep a close eye on every pet, follow your routines and feeding instructions, and make sure pets are securely leashed or indoors. I'll send regular photo updates and contact you right away if anything seems off!

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I work from home, so pets receive lots of attention, supervision, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I have a clean, calm home with a fenced yard and currently focus on providing personalized care for small dogs and cats. I understand how important trust and communication are, so I make sure pet parents receive regular updates and photos while their pets stay with me. I currently work remotely full-time, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with pets, keeping them comfortable, active, and well cared for in a calm and loving environment. I have a clean, calm, and pet-friendly home with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and play. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines, while making sure every fur baby feels safe, loved, and comfortable.

About: I know how important it is to find someone you truly feel comfortable leaving your pet with. They’re part of your family, and choosing a sitter is a big decision. My goal is to give you the peace of mind that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’ve been providing pet care for clients for over 5 years and have been a Rover sitter for the past 2.5 years. I’ve also grown up caring for pets throughout my entire life, with about 20 years of experience caring for pets in my family as well as being a cat mom myself now! This gives me a deeper understanding from both perspectives: both the sitter and the owner. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all different ages, personalities, and needs. I really enjoy getting to know each pet individually and learning their routines, quirks, and what makes them feel most comfortable. Whether they’re energetic and love attention, shy and need some time to warm up, or happiest curled up beside you, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I’m very attentive to their care and routines, and I’ll treat your pet with the same patience, kindness, and care I’d want someone to show my own. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you can see how they’re doing and feel reassured while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your fur babies and hopefully become someone you feel completely comfortable trusting with them! 🐾 I currently have open availability throughout the week. I take some remote classes, and do freelance remote work. Additionally, I do have some other freelance work such as figure skating coaching that will require me to leave the home for 3-4 hours maximum, however if your pet needs constant care that is something we can discuss as well! I care for pets based on the owner’s care sheet and schedule! I can easily adjust my schedule to fit their feeding and walking needs.

About: I have been caring for pets since I was 10 years old. I love all animals I always have. I'm a very sensitive soul and I really feel their energy. They seem to love me as well. I've always treated all of my fur babies as just that, part of the family like a very important part! So when I care for your pet rest assured they will have a luxury experience and pretty much run the show. I let them decide where and when to walk and go outside and play and eat, all within your guidelines, of course. I would be honored if u would allow me to care for your amazing fur baby or babies🐾💖 I currently work part-time so I have plenty of time to spend spoiling your fur babies. My schedule can be flexible so please reach out to see if we could be a good fit I am extremely flexible and can customize care to fit you and your pets specific needs and make sure your pets are comfortable and feel at home.

This is the third or fourth time I’ve had Hon come to take care of Woody while I’m on a trip, and I find that he continues to go above and beyond to make sure my baby feels loved while my kids and I are away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Pleasant Plains is $23 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $32 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 October 2026, there are 5,458 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Pleasant Plains. 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 Pleasant Plains. 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 , 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 Pleasant Plains 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pleasant Plains. On Rover:

  • 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
