“Ian really is a treasure! My partner had an emergency hip replacement so we're using Ian for daily walks with our biggest dog for 3 months (and maybe more). Our Finn is a giant dog (over 105 pounds and dog reactive) and Finn loves Ian. She starts checking for him a couple of hours before her walk time and then squirms with crazed excitement when he pulls in the driveway I cannot recommend Ian highly enough. Thank you Ian!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been caring for my own pets and my neighbors’ pets since I was a kid. I’m a certified veterinary technician and currently work at a doggy daycare, where I’ve spent over two years giving dogs lots of love and personalized care. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, and pets who need a little extra patience, attention, or medication. I am in college and I work, but I am always ready to work around it. I’m available for drop-ins and walks Monday through Thursday after 7pm, Fridays and Saturdays all day, and Sundays before 12 and after 5. I care for both cats and dogs with safety, patience, and respect for their individual needs. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and litter box or potty schedules. For dogs, I focus on leash handling, safe play, and proper supervision. For cats, I prioritize a calm environment, clean litter boxes, and playing if they’d like. I keep pets in safe, clean spaces, respect your home, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. As a child, wife, mom and teacher, I have taken care of and loved many animals over the years. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, frogs, turtles, birds, fish. As an educator, I have open availability during the summer. I'd love to show your pet some extra TLC during your workday to ease your mind! I have all of my security clearances as an educator. I hope this helps provide you with peace of mind when I come to take care of your pet.
About: Growing up surrounded by pets, I’ve been an animal lover since I was little! My experience includes feeding and caring for dogs and cats, animal enrichment through play and exercise, administering medications, and keeping a clean environment. As a pet parent myself, I understand every animal has individual needs and will make sure your pet is well cared for! I have a flexible schedule, and I’m able to provide animal care frequently. I am happy to work with each pets specific routine and schedule. I would follow the instructions the owner left and keep each pet’s routine as consistent as possible while treating the home and pet with respectful care.
“Devyn was great! She did so well taking care of our little dog for a week. We got pictures, updates, and knew our pup was in great hands. Our dog loved Devyn and it seemed like a mutual feeling! We would highly recommend her and will absolutely use her next time we need her help!”
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have a lot of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities!! At home I’ve got a sweet tabby cat, a very energetic 90 lb Labrador, and two small but loud and cuddly Chiweenies🤣🤣so I’m used to everything from high energy dogs to relaxed cats, and both big and small breeds. I’m patient, attentive, and really treat every pet like they’re my own. I genuinely love being around animals and caring for them is something I take seriously and enjoy a lot. I also have experience with special needs pets and am comfortable administering medication if needed. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, gentle senior care, help staying on a routine, or just a reliable and loving presence, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.👍🥰 I just graduated college and I’m really looking forward to taking things a little slower right now. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so it fits perfectly into my life right now. I’d love the chance to spend my time taking care of and keeping company with your pets while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which leaves me with a lot of flexibility and open availability. I’m available for overnight pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. I’m also happy to house sit and help with small things like taking out the trash, bringing in mail, and keeping things tidy while you’re gone. I’m reliable, calm, and easygoing, and I really do enjoy being around animals, it doesn’t feel like a job to me so much as something I like to do:) I am very cautious, patient, and detail-oriented when caring for pets. I always follow your instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I treat every home with respect, keep doors secured, monitor pets carefully, and do my best to provide a clean, calm environment where they can relax and feel completely at ease.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog and other dogs since I was 13. I fed, and supported my dog as well as others by giving them constant love. Pet care for dogs fits perfectly into my life and I would love to be with them and give them lots of love and treats if allowed. I care for my pets at my house by making sure they have all the love they need as well as food water and an appropriate shelter for them.
“Marielaina really helped me out of a pickle after my surgery. I couldn't walk my dog for a while after my surgery and my care giver was not physically capable to assist. Marielaina stepped up and helped with multiple walks and even taking him to play with his red ball at our community's private dog park. My dog is so excited to see her when she walks up to the door, giving her all the wiggle-butt anyone could want.”

I have experience with dogs of all sizes, strengths and personalities and would love to care for your pets!! I work full time but am available for early morning and night time visits and walks. I’m off Saturdays, Sundays and Tuesdays so am available all day those days. I may be open to over nights, depending on my schedule and how far they are from me.

“Caroline is very responsive and professional. My senior pup loved walking with her in the morning. Honestly she is a godsend. I had major surgery and can not walk my dog for a while, she was able to step up and help right away. I feel like my pup is in good hands with Caroline.”
“I have really enjoyed having Shanon coming to walk my big boy. My big boy is a rescue and is not great with new people. At 140 pounds he can be very intimidating to others. We need someone to watch our dogs for a long trip this year which will require work and time to build a relationship. Shanon is very intuitive to my dogs need to build a relationship slowly. She doesn't react to him the way most would and genuinely takes clues from him. Ive been so worried to try and have him build a relationship with someone and I dont think I could have gotten anyone better. She does rush him or force him to be near her and he is very quickly getting comfortable with her which is something I wasnt expecting to happen so soon. I can not rave enough about her natural intuition and willingness to work with us, its been a perfect fit and I know our dogs will be just fine with her for an extended period of time in a few months!”
About: I've been taking care of my best friend's and my neighbors' dogs since before I can remember, and have two very happy and healthy cats myself. I can take care of any animal, but cats and dogs are my favorites. I love to take dogs on walks and playing fetch (even on 100+ degree days) because every dog deserves the best treatment. Pet care is 24/7 for me with two cats, but since it's summertime, I'm able to be free any day of the week at any time to take care of pets, and can spend long amounts of time with pets without having to leave them. I will follow any and all rules and set by you, including feeding times, walk requests and more, as all I want is to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and taken care of properly. I am very enthusiastic about walks and even just playing with and petting dogs, and I just want to make sure pets are happy and healthy😸.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Plumstead is $16 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $16 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.

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 Plumstead. 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 Plumstead 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 Plumstead. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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.
