“Nicola is absolutely amazing! We couldn’t ask for a better person to care for Rocky while we’re away. She is always reliable, on time, and goes above and beyond to make sure he’s well cared for. She doesn’t just walk him—she spends time playing with him, makes sure he’s fed, comfortable, and happy, and treats him like one of her own. Knowing Rocky is in Nicola’s care gives us complete peace of mind. Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We highly recommend Nicola to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”
About: I have lots of experience administering medication to dogs and cats and I am comfortable doing so. I am also comfortable watching puppies, who are not potty trained, and cleaning up after them. I have had many puppies in my life and cleaned up a lot of messes. Depending on your requests (and your dog's preference), I will take your dog on a long (2 to 3 mile) walk a day or to the dog park (probably in Pheonixville: on Longford Rd). A dog deserves to get all his energy out, and I do not charge more for walking them. I recently moved to the Valley View Apartments in Pottstown, PA. I work part-time at The Home Depot (6 minutes away). I have a BA in English from Stony Brook University in NY and I am returning to School this fall, part-time, to begin a new journey in Engineering. I love dogs and I would enjoy watching them and taking care of them. I have had dogs my entire life, and due to my recent move, this is the first time in my life I am without them in residence. Your dog(s) is free to go and sleep wherever they want in my apartment. My dog, Oliver, is a gentle, sweet pup with random bursts of puppy energy. He suffers with epilepsy, which is where I gained experience administering (over fifty: not an exaggeration) pills a day to my dog. Our dogs and cats are free to go wherever they want at the house back at home and when they stay here at my apartment. Although I am not living with them currently, I believe taking them out either for a long walk or to the dog park for at least forty five minutes is essential.
About: Hello! I love making new fur friends! I’ve been using rover for a few years now but took a break. I just started back on here and looking forward to meeting new clients! I am very dedicated to the wellbeing of animals, both mine and others. I got my first animal at age 11, lived 15 long years with me. Then, since the age of 13 I have taken care of animals that were not mine, normally for weeks at a time. I’ve bottle fed and fostered kittens. I’ve helped find homes for animals that would have otherwise been sheltered and I’ve rescued abandoned cats. I currently have 3 cats and 1 dog who’s over 60lbs of muscle! I treat pets as family and would treat your animal just the same. A meet and greet is preferred so that both me and the dog are familiar with each other. If you are unsure what service to choose pick something and message me your needs so we can determine what works best and adjustments can be made :) I am willing to drive a distance depending on the service needed but please note that before confirming a booking, if the commute is long I may charge extra or have to decline. This would all be done in advance. Please keep in mind the weather when asking me to drive a long distance when say it’s icy or otherwise hazardous. Safety first :)! IMPORTANT PLEASE READ: About my schedule; I wish Rover would be more specific about time slots. I am available almost everyday at some point in the day. Please reach out with your request In advance to make sure our schedules work out. Please feel free to ask me any questions! Please note: I have not worked with aggressive dogs and would not consider it at this point in time. I have a fairly flexible schedule. Any conflicts will be let known in advance. Each day is different so please message me your needs in advance if you’d like specific hours that care is needed. Care will vary depending on the preference of the owner. Please let me know in advance all your preferences so that I can make sure we are a good fit.
“Ella was unbelievable! Couldn’t have been happier with her treatment of my dog. She treated him like her own. I feel very comfortable with Ella being my dog walker going forward and will be my go to anytime I am away.”
About: I grew up with dogs and while my current situation isn't conducive to owning, dogsitting and walking suffice the immediate urge. I grew up with St. Bernards, so I can handle dogs of all sizes. My schedule will be very open, but I enjoy waking up early and going on walks, so if that is something that you are looking for I would gladly volunteer my services. I am very active and am ready to tire out your dog in the yard or on a run when necessary. Looking forward to spending time with your dog! I'm taking some time in between jobs, so my days are wide open, but I play soccer in the evenings very regularly, so that is the only part of the day where I may have limitations. I am not able to offer boarding given my apartment restrictions, but I can assure you I will treat your home with care and respect.
“We had a positive experience with Andrew. It was a last minute booking and he confirmed promptly. He was punctual, with proactive communication before and during the walk. Our pup was happy and he paid attention to our special instructions to keep her from picking up trash off the ground. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been taking caring of dogs since I was 8, I’ve had three of my own dogs, my current household has three dogs in total. My current household also previously had two cats I helped take care of as well. I am a very caring pet parent and treat others pets as my own. I am a full time stay at home day with my wife and I’s 20 month old daughter, but that does not stop me from taking care of pets. I have a fenced in yard for the three dogs I live with, get them exercise, plenty of water and feed them every morning and night. I can do the same for all of your pets and whatever else you request if I can accommodate it.
“Katie is amazing with my dog. My dog love love loves her. Katie is very with with animals and is able to handle my 60lb pitbull on a walk (not many can say that)! I highly recommend her!!!”
About: Hello! I have been caring for four legged babies big and small for over 10 years, personally I have been owned by four legged babies for over 18 years. Over the years I have cared for dogs, cats, exotics, farm animals, and alpacas! I’m always happy to go on an adventure or just snuggle up with my four legged friends. Attention to detail is a major strong point that I provide to ensure the safety and well-being of your four legged family. I am able to brush, bathe, feed, fluff beds, clean-up any oops, and entertain your four legged family. Also I am able to provide any special care requests that your four legged family needs. Whether your fur babies want to explore or just snuggle up, let’s go!
About: I had my own dog from age 10-16 who I took care of every day and my brother now has a dog who lives with us who I also help take care of. We also had two cats when I was younger and plenty of other pets such as fish, lizards, and hamsters. I now own two of my own cats who are my world! My oldest cat, Solomon, has cerebellar hypoplasia, so I am experienced in taking care of special needs animals as well! I am currently in school attending classes at Kutztown. I commute (obviously lol) so I my schedule is pretty wide open other than class! Right now I just have class MWF from 10-2 (plus commute time), but I’m free otherwise! I know the ins and outs of taking care of animals as I have plenty of experience. I know how to take care of trained and untrained dogs whether that be crates or something else. For cats, I have two of my own so I can assure you they’d be in great hands <3
“Amanda is the absolute best!! I reached out to schedule dog walking services with less than 24 hours notice, and she responded right away to book. She did such a wonderful job. Amanda arrived right on time each day, sent pictures of my dog during the visit, and even filled up his water bowl before leaving. I am beyond thankful that she took such great care of my dog and he loved her company. I would highly recommend her services and can’t wait to book with her in the future!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Jenn has been great. I work several weekends a month and it’s nice to know she enjoys spending time with Stanley while I’m gone for a long day. She provides nice updates and Stanley likes playing with her from what I can tell! I will continue to use her when she’s available.
Nicola is absolutely amazing! We couldn’t ask for a better person to care for Rocky while we’re away. She is always reliable, on time, and goes above and beyond to make sure he’s well cared for. She doesn’t just walk him—she spends time playing with him, makes sure he’s fed, comfortable, and happy, and treats him like one of her own. Knowing Rocky is in Nicola’s care gives us complete peace of mind. Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We highly recommend Nicola to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Pottstown is $16 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $20 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 5,093 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:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
