About: A long time animal lover, I have 20 plus years of experience with dogs! I specialize in senior dogs. I can administer medication and am first aid certified! I am currently looking for long term employment, so my schedule during the week is very open. I care for my father every other Saturday. I have a fenced in yard, and a big comfy dog-friendly couch to lounge on! I have all the equipment necessary, including a crate that is sized for large dogs.

About: As a lifelong dog lover and detail‑oriented professional, I provide safe, structured, and affectionate care for every pup I host. I’m committed to keeping your dog’s routine consistent, their environment calm, and you fully updated with photos and check‑ins. Whether your dog loves long walks, quiet snuggles, or playtime, I tailor each stay to their needs so you can travel with total peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I structure my days around consistency and reliability. I make time each morning and evening for feeding, play, and check‑ins, and I keep my schedule flexible enough to accommodate drop‑ins, medication routines, or extra attention for pets who need it. I prioritize maintaining each animal’s normal rhythm — whether that means early breakfasts, midday enrichment, or quiet evening companionship — so their routine stays steady even while you’re away. Clear communication is part of my daily flow as well, so you can expect regular updates and photos throughout each visit. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, predictable environment that feels safe and familiar for them. I follow your instructions exactly — from feeding and litter box routines to preferred play styles and comfort needs — and I take time to build trust at your pet’s pace. I’m attentive to small details like keeping spaces tidy, refreshing water frequently, and monitoring behavior for any signs of stress or discomfort. I also respect your home by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. Throughout each visit, I send updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel confident they’re receiving thoughtful, reliable care.

About: I have had seven dogs throughout my life and currently have a friendly 7-year-old Beagle. I have also pet-sat dogs for family and friends over the years. Caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities has given me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playing, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions carefully. I am patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with animals! I currently don’t work and I am home all day so I can be with your dog most of the day and let them out frequently. I have a big fenced yard and like to walk dogs. I care for pets with the same patience, attention, and responsibility that I would want for my own. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also follow each pet’s individual routine and any specific instructions from their owner, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and other needs. In a client’s home, I am respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being and communicate with the owner regularly so they know how their pet is doing. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, comfortable, and loved while in my care.

About: I have great experience in dog handling, training, walking, and sitting both in groups and individually. I also hold a certification in Canine & Feline CPR/First Aid from Pet Emergency Education. I am highly vigilant of behavioral cues and feel my best when I am around animals. I regularly go for long distance walks and do barbell strength training to ensure I am strong enough to keep your pup safe. I also have experience with kitten care as I raised 2 litters! I am a stay-at-home wife so I am available anytime Monday through Saturday for your pet's needs! I know the Norristown area quite well as to ensure shady, safe walking areas for your pet. I am Canine & Feline CPR/First Aid Certified by Pet Emergency Education. If pet-sitting or overnight stays are needed, I always listen attentively for owner preferences. Any specifications regarding food, medication, bathroom breaks can be ensured. I also have experience providing ear drops and pills to dogs, and bottle feeding for kittens.

About: My pet care experience goes far beyond simply loving animals. I have cared for cats, dogs, fish, horses, small mammals, and wildlife, and I recently earned my M.S. in Wildlife Science. I have worked as a dog walker, a pet/house/plant sitter, an animal research technician caring for mice, rats, rabbits, pigs, and dogs, and as a veterinary assistant at a mobile cat and dog vaccine clinic. I also have experience drawing blood and administering medication to a variety of domestic (cats, dogs) and wildlife animals (tortoises, bighorn sheep), so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and paying close attention to each animal’s needs. I am very much a cat person, too, and I understand that cats have different needs than dogs, including patience, quiet companionship, respect for boundaries, and careful attention to subtle changes in behavior. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to animal behavior, and I enjoy helping pets feel safe, whether they need a good walk, playtime, calm companionship, or plenty of cuddles. I currently work remotely part-time, which allows me to maintain a very flexible schedule for pet care. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, pet sitting, and plant care throughout the week. While I am not able to provide boarding in my own home, I am happy to provide overnight care in your home so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency by carefully following each client’s instructions and keeping pets in their familiar routines as much as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and household rules are handled with care. I also pay close attention to each pet’s body language, comfort level, and behavior, and I provide calm, respectful care that helps them feel secure while their owner is away.

About: Hi! My name is Olivia, and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs since I was 14 years old and have spent years helping care for my own pets as well as family pets. In addition to dogs, I currently care for my own cats and have experience looking after a coworker’s two long-haired cats and a friend’s two cats while they were away. I offer drop-in visits, pet sitting, feeding, fresh water refills, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, cuddle, or simply have a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I work full-time during the weekdays, but I am available after 5:00 PM for visits, walks, and pet care. On weekends, I have open availability and can dedicate more time to caring for your pets. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, and I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your furry family members. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully and do my best to maintain their normal routine. I will ensure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive plenty of attention and exercise, and that their environment stays clean and safe. I also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide reliable, loving care that both pets and owners can feel good about. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for in my daily routine. I work full time during the weekdays, but I’m available after 5 PM for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need. On weekends, I have open availability and can dedicate even more time to caring for pets and sticking to their normal routines. Since I’m already a pet owner myself, caring for animals is naturally part of my everyday life. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away, and I always strive to provide reliable care, communication, and plenty of affection. In my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and sticking closely to their normal routine. I make sure they are fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection based on their personality and energy level. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and follow all instructions exactly as given, including feeding routines, litter box or potty breaks, medication needs, and any specific care preferences. I also make sure to keep things clean and tidy, and I always double-check doors, gates, and anything needed to keep pets secure. I understand that every pet is different, so I take time to learn their behavior, comfort level, and routine so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured and connected while they’re gone.

About: I don't have any crazy special certifications or experience but I have loved dogs, my entire life I had a beagle growing up names snickers.. i was young but I swear that was the most stubborn dog ever. Due to school and work, I was not able to get my own.Dog until I was in my 30s. Izzy is my ride or die soul dog. For the last 5 years, I have been fostering and volunteering with various rescues in the area. When I have some downtime. But day to day i am a working professional single dog mom seeking additional puppy play dates... for me and my pup Izzy. I honestly just do rover on the side as an excuse to get off my behind and play with some local fur friends but also for my pup Izzy to get out bc she is sick of me now that I wfh full time unless i have business trip. Depending on your location or needs I am happy to schedule my day accordingly for walks, stop ins, etc. - at the end of the day very flexible with sufficient notice or schedule permitting within 5 mile radius from east norriton. I can only board or house sit if our dogs get along so reach out for a meet n greet. Walks/check ins I can do solo. In the summer of 2026 i started a new job working from 100% unless traveling. Need accountabilibudies to. Help me step away from desk through the day. Also could use some extra money to cover my own dog care for when I need to travel for work Important to assess the needs of all dogs during a meet and greet prior to the first visit. When I am out and about the dogs are always leashed. If I have a dog staying with me, I never leave then out with my dog.I would separate them with a crate or a bedroom door. i would also feed separately

About: My love for dogs has been with me since I was a kid, but it truly took off when I got into hiking and the outdoors! There’s something magical about seeing a dog’s pure excitement on the trail—the way their tail wags nonstop, the burst of energy as they explore, and that unshakable bond they share with their humans. Watching my friends' dogs thrive on these adventures made me realize just how much I love being around dogs, and soon enough, I found myself pet sitting for coworkers while they traveled. That’s when everything clicked—I wasn’t just helping out, I was doing something that brought me real joy! Over the past two years, I’ve gained a deep understanding of dog behavior, problem-solving, and structured care. I know how important trust and communication are when it comes to caring for someone’s pet, and I always keep owners in the loop with updates and insights into their dog’s well-being. I’ve also developed a strong ability to read body language, making sure every dog I watch feels safe, comfortable, and excited for their time with me! Whether it’s juggling multiple dogs with different needs, sticking to medication and feeding schedules, or adapting to new situations with patience and confidence, I’m always ready to step up and provide the best possible care. Now that I’m back home in New Jersey, I’m beyond excited to continue this journey! I’m always looking to grow, learn, and bring even more love and energy to the dogs I care for. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s something I truly love doing! I can’t wait to meet your pup and make sure they’re happy, safe, and having the best time ever! I currently have full availability from Thursday to Sunday, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time to your pet. On Monday through Wednesday, I work a flexible schedule that still allows for drop-in services, walks, feeding, and other care needs. I am happy to work with your specific situation and can accommodate hybrid or work-from-home scenarios to ensure your dog receives the attention they deserve. Creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for pets is my top priority! I will adhere to your expectations and routines; Prepare meals and refresh water regularly; Provide daily walks, playtime, and exercises tailored to your dog's needs; maintain hygiene and grooming; Send updates and communication to pet owner; Secure outdoor areas and ensure leash handling during walks.

About: Dog mom who has an incredible love for all. Experience in watching in my home but will also stay at yours. Experience in administering meds, walking, play time and mental stimulation. Your pet in my care would be loved and cared for like my own. Pet sitting is not a new experience for me, however, the joy it brings me making new friends and memories with the owners and pets brings a new joy every time! I am newly retired and have a flexible schedule that would allow me for drop in visits, walks, feeds, medications, play time and or boarding. I have a very gentle 4 year old labradoodle who would make a good playmate. My home or yours. I have an electronic fence for my boy but I would take your pets for leashed walks. YOUR PETS WILL BEG TO STAY! 💙🐾♥️

Amanda met with Dora a few days ago just to see and meet her. Today Amanda came and took her for a walk for half an hour in my neighborhood Dora was definitely out of breath but still enjoyed the walk in the neighborhood with Amanda. We're hoping if she starts walking a little more she may lose some weight as well. Amanda is understanding of animals and k n e w when she needed to take a break.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Plymouth Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Plymouth Valley on Rover is $22.2 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 9,685 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Plymouth Valley. 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 Plymouth Valley. 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 Plymouth Valley.

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 Plymouth Valley. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
