“Glen has been great to work with and my Sasha just loves him. She will lay by the door and wait for her buddy. He has been walking her daily for over a year now, never had a schedule conflict or a "No show", and if I had to adjust something I can almost always expect the return text to read "Ok sounds good". He is so easy to work with, very pleased with the service!”

About: When I'm not caring for pets, I help families understand the importance of being insured. As a licensed Primerica agent I know how important it is to have a state license and insurance. Not only do you get the Rover Guarantee but you get me, a sitter, who takes her job seriously enough to get general and personal liability insurance and state licensing for your protection and mine. I specialize in Cats , Senior Dogs and Small Dogs, and Exotics. I have been caring for pets PROFESSIONALLY for 14 years. Experienced with small dogs and seniors who utilize pee pads or fenced yards for their needs. I provide attentive care for multiple pets while maintaining their existing home routines. Dedicated to safety and consistent communication. Gentle Leisure Walks / Potty Walks I currently offer calm, slow-paced neighborhood walks that are ideal for potty breaks, fresh air, and gentle movement. My walks are best suited for senior dogs, small dogs, low-energy dogs, or pets who enjoy a relaxed stroll rather than vigorous exercise. Walks typically include a short outing close to home at an easy pace, with plenty of time for sniffing, potty breaks, and comfort. I do not offer running, fast-paced exercise walks, or long-distance walks. I provide calm, gentle care and leisurely walks, some breed and temperament restrictions do apply to ensure the best experience for every pet. Exotics I have experience with exotics; rabbits, guinea pigs, gerbils, mice, hamsters, tarantulas, birds, fish, hedgehogs, iguanas, bearded dragons, axolotls, lizards,and turtles. During the meet and greet we will go over the very specific needs of all your special babies. The only medication I administer is the kind that can be mixed into their food. Please make sure to always check what days I am available and times bookings may fill up so it's best to check with me not just my calendar. Also please make yourself acquainted with my cancellation policy. I value every pet and every visit I’m trusted with, and I always strive to be punctual and reliable. In the event of unexpected delays such as traffic, weather, or emergency situations (including other pet care visits or personal emergencies), I allow a reasonable grace period of up to 45 minutes per visit. During inclement weather, for everyone’s safety, visit times may need to be adjusted earlier or later depending on conditions. Communication is always a priority. In any situation that affects timing, I will provide updates as promptly as possible so you’re never left wondering. I appreciate your understanding that real-life situations can occasionally affect timing, and I remain fully committed to providing consistent, attentive care for every pet I serve. Winter is coming, and daylight hours are shrinking! To ensure safe driving conditions, my available visiting hours are strictly between 8 AM and 4 PM. Since kitties don't need late-night outdoor walks like dogs do, this daytime window leaves plenty of room to keep your pets routine perfectly on track while the sun is up! Additionally, I'm available 7 days a week and holidays. ​I maintain strict safety protocols, requiring secure fencing or a leash/harness for any outdoor activity. I double-check that all doors and gates are locked and secured. For my safety and yours, I require clear communication regarding who has home access.

About: I took care of a puggle for years from infancy into senior years, so I am used to walking dogs with any demeanor from reactive puppies, heavy sniffers and slow seniors. I have an adjustable routine, and have the ability to walk for long or short distances depending on your preference. I am flexible in the mornings and evenings for walks. I unfortunately cannot accept any walks after 7pm. I can easily leash, crate, unleash your pet for walks. I can also administer post/pre walk treats and rewards. However you want your bud attended to, just let me know.

About: Everything is negotiable as far as how many pets, how many days or weeks involved, accommodation needed etc. so please message me if you have any questions. I prefer to house sit at your home but, again, I can be flexible! Im pretty empathetic towards animals so I’m aware that they need love, attention, and to be movin’, movin’! I work 3-4 days a week and go in at 4pm and I can get out anywhere from 10pm-12:30am. Checking in with your pet would be my first priority as soon as I got off of work. I will make sure doors, fences, crates (if used) are locked. Dog is always on leash when outside and constant monitoring of whereabouts as needed. Pets provide the best photo ops so expect a lot of updates and funny flicks ^-^

About: I had dogs my whole childhood, and have had cats in adulthood. As a kid, I loved caring for and training our dogs, both basic commands and some fun tricks! I was responsible for letting them out when they needed, feeding them on time, playing with them, and taking them on walks. I wanted to be a dog trainer for years, and had a training manual I would study to know all the right actions and reactions for different situations and behaviors. I can't say I remember many specifics for training, but I definitely have plenty experience in basic care and play. As of right now, I am available all day on Sundays, and until 2pm all other days— perfect for midday walks or drop-ins while you're at work! I can provide basic care for both cats and dogs in their homes. I will feed, play, cuddle, walk, and even clean up after if necessary.

About: I have been caring for animals since the age of 5. I have always loved animals and wanted a job where I could spend as much time with them as possible. I have raised and trained all of my own pets. I lived on a farm for years caring animals of all ages and sizes. I enjoy anything outdoors but can make the best of any situation. I’m experienced in animal therapy as well. I have many friends and family who have relied on me to care of pets while away or sick. I am an animal lover and would make sure your pets are cared for as if they were my own. I do not currently work as I stay home. Being able to do a job (which I wouldn’t even call it a job) working with animals would be a dream. I care for all pets as if they were my own while abiding by the owners rules. I enjoy being outside as much as possible so exercise is no problem. I also can offer baths/mail trimmings/desheddings as well. I am here to care for your pet as you would yourself.

“Did a great job with my 9 month old puppy! For her dog, walking service, took him on a nice walks, and was able to recognize when he was getting tired to give him a break. It was very attentive to his cues. Christina also provided lots of photos and detailed daily updates about how Bubs was doing. I would absolutely let her care for him again!”

About: *The prices you see on my account are negotiable! I enjoy helping others and believe in just paying what you can!* I have been an animal owner my whole life. About 5 years ago I started animal sitting and house sitting for people I know and am now wanting to reach out further! Since I am unable to have a million of my own animals I love to care for other peoples babies like they are my own! I really enjoy making a special connection with animals and learning their quirks :) I have never had a problem while sitting, and I am positive when the time comes I can work through what is thrown at me. I am capable correctly administering meds to animals in need and adhering to a strict diet and feeding plan. I work full time (3 Days a week) at a hospital as a PCT. I generally work every other day MWF so I will be home quite a bit. In the past my boyfriend (who is a HUGEE animal lover) has also stayed and helped care for animals with me, he gets off work earlier than me so he generally helps with potty breaks and play time. On the days I am off I like to go on walks before the heat kicks up for the day and after dinner around 7pm when it cools down. I generally only care for clients animals in their own home to keep the pet feeling safe and leading to a more trustworthy relationship. There has been many times after the pet and I have gotten comfortable that we go on car rides to my home or out to watch little kid baseball games. I have taken dogs to day care to get some extra enrichment with their doggie friends as well.

Clowee walked the doggies separately because our girl didn't like getting her feet wet. I am impressed. Both dogs really look forward to seeing her!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Pottstown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Pottstown is $18 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 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 196 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Pottstown. 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 Pottstown. 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 Pottstown 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 Pottstown. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 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.
