“Felisha is an absolute GEM 💎 she took such great care of our baby boy Maverick while my Aunt was watching him for us! I believe Maverick even walked better for Felisha then he does for my husband and I 😂 My Aunt couldn’t say enough great things about Felisha and stated ANYONE in the area that needed some help with their pup 🐶 should use her! Thank you so much Felisha we will definitely use you again!”

About: I've care for my childhood dog since he was a puppy and all the way till his passing of old age. I have two sister's who all have doggies and they rely on me to care for them when needed. I know the importance of maintaining routine, identifying any triggers they might have, and being alert for any situation. I have a dog of my own, and through training him. i have learned a lot more then i knew before. But of course , you never truly stop learning. I'm excited to get to know each and every pet that i get the chance to meet. I work part time. I'm available 6 am to 10:30 am all days. Weekdays it varies. Some days I'm free until 4 pm. Other days I'm free 5pm till 10 pm. That is why i need a day in advance to know. I live alone with my dog, Zeus. he is super friendly with all dogs but i also have an extra bed room that is not used. whatever it is that you need me to do, i will do it.

About: I have been surrounded by the love of four paws my entire life between friends or family and my own sweet fur babies (and cute gecko). I have been trusted to care for others’ fur babies from dog walking to pet check-ins over the last 5 years. My love for all animals guarantees exceptional care (and lovings) for your pets! My flexible career schedule gives me plenty of opportunities throughout the week to provide mindful walks, attentive care, and lots of love for your fur baby! I am mindful of my surroundings at all times to ensure there is safety, which applies for your four legged friend as well with my attentiveness for their care.

“Misty was great! She cared for my two dogs for an evening at her house which has a fenced yard so they could be outside much of the time, which they love. She was very loving and caring, and took great care of them. Highly recommended!”

“Kira has been so fantastic with Doug, The Cooper, and Moshi. We could not be more pleased. She uses the Rover app to let us know when she arrives, how long Doug is on his walk, his “action” and the photos are priceless. We will continue to use her as long as possible. A+”

“I can't recommend Ashley enough as a dog walker! She has been walking my golden retriever, Molly, regularly for a couple of months now, and I couldn't be happier with her services. Ashley is incredibly reliable and always shows up on time, which gives me peace of mind during my busy days. Not only is she friendly and approachable, but her genuine love for dogs truly shines through in her interactions with Molly. It’s clear that she goes above and beyond to make sure Molly is happy and well-cared for during their walks. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy and has a real passion for dogs, look no further than Ashley! She’s fantastic, and I’m so grateful to have her!”

About: Get to know me: Hi!!!! My name is Gianna. I've taken care of dogs big and small since I was a child. With 3 pups at home right now giving me years of experience with dogs young and old. I have had breeds such as French bulldogs, pit bulls, and chihuahuas personally, but have cared for many others! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pups. My job is to care for your pup as if it were my own, making sure they are happy and well cared for. Schedule: I am currently employed with a 7 am-5:30 pm job during the weekdays. My weekends are typically clear unless suggested otherwise. After work and before work i am able to care to pets as needed! Safety, care, and environment: When it comes to a clients home I have a range of questions to better prepare myself for the best care. I will ask for a feeding, walking, and potty schedule for your pup to better care for their needs. Information like how much food the pup gets, is the pup friendly with other pups is also a must have! I will ask for permission before walking with multiple pups, and always check fence gates before letting pups out. Nonetheless I will always keep you updated with cute pictures and videos and I will always leave a home better than I arrived!

About: Lifelong pet owner here! I have known many cycles of pups and kittens and watched them transform into the greatest companions. Not only am I qualified but I am also overjoyed to be a guardian to your pets. What that means is I treat them as my own. I find it very easy to dial-in to an animals specific temperament so they can feel comfortable and happy in my care. Whether its walks, baths, playtime, "wanna go outside!?" "treat?!" senior care, dietary protocols, I can provide an open space for pets to unwind in a home away from home:) Currently, I work part-time and from home! This leaves me with an extremely flexible schedule for coordinating the pet-care needs of clients. Ideal for availability! I have a comfortable, spacious home and your pets are welcome! I have 3 cats with the option of extra company, or can be kept in their personal cat playroom if your pet is shy or if other animals bring them discomfort. I embrace your pets personality and they are free to roam through out the pet-proof premises. Fun, warm, safe and relaxing is the environment I work to create. I am looking forward to accommodating their needs during their stay!

About: Hi, I'm Lucy! I'm a lover of all things small, cute, and fluffy. I've grown up around yorkies, pomeraninans, and other small breeds so I know them best - their unique, sweet, loving, and sometimes yappy souls hold a special place in my heart. ;) I love and respect these kind creatures with everything in me! My rescue dog ended up being pregnant! So I learned how to care for 4 pom ups from birth. I love to connect and care for animals with the same attention, warmth, and kindness I would want for my own. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets for vacation, so I want to create a safe space in my care that you and your dogs feel comfortable with! I send lots of detailed updates and photos of your furbaby :) My profile is new! So I would be honored to earn your trust to be your sitter - i'm happy to set up a meet and greet before we lock in the real dates to make you more comfortable if you prefer! I work full time remotely, so I have flexibility to pop in as needed. I have full weekend availability and can usually do mornings and evenings on weekdays, or afternoons if you are nearby. When in a clients home, I treat it with extreme respect. I tread lightly and only come in to care for your pets and take boundaries seriously as this is your personal space, your comfort is my priority!

About: I have experience with dogs of various breeds and ages ranging, who are most often from shelters or rescues. While I have 2 dogs of my own (shelter & foster), I have 5 years of experience fostering dogs who come directly from their rescue location who often need adjustment/bonding time, medical care & basic training (potty, crate, walking, etc.). The fosters I have cared for range from ages 3mo-8 years, and I am comfortable with senior care and rd ministering medication. I have experience with dogs who are more reactive. My work schedule allows me to be available during the week in the early morning or evening. During the weekends I am able to fill in afternoon slots for walks or a home visit! I have raised dogs with both fenced in and partially fenced in yards. Their off-leash time in the yard required supervision and thorough training to keep them engaged in staying in the yard. I walk my dogs on a leash and crate them when I leave the house.

About: I got my first dog when I was 6 years old and have taken care of them ever since. On multiple occasions I’ve cared for and walked my neighbors and friend’s dogs as well. I’m a student at Michigan state university but I often come home to my family. I’m available most days in the week, depending on my academic schedule. I live in a condo with my family and thus, will be going to clients houses rather than keeping their dogs in my house. I will also be available to walk their dogs as well.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Pontiac

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Pontiac on Rover is $21.4 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 3,746 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Pontiac. 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 Pontiac. 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 Pontiac.

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 Pontiac. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
