About: Animals have always been a part of my life, growing up with household dogs and cats. I've had experience with elderly dogs as well as puppies/kittens. Currently my husband and I have a 5 year old cat named Pepper and a 6 month old black lab, Kobe. Our yard is a decent size, plenty of room for dogs to run and play, and our home has space for new animal friends. Having a pup myself, I understand the feeling of leaving your animal and wanting them to have the best care possible. My goal is to make sure your animal is well taken care of and give you peace of mind. I'm currently working part-time, with a very flexible schedule. This leaves me lots of time to be able to take care of your animals! Week days are very available for walks and check ins, boarding can be available on the weekends. To make sure your dogs are safe and have no chance of running away from the house or on a walk, I will keep a leash on unless in a fenced in area. I will treat your animal with the same sense of care as my own dog, making sure it is fed, walked, and especially - loved.

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! 🐾 I absolutely LOVE animals, and I truly believe they all deserve plenty of love, attention, and belly rubs! I’ve had experience caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with a variety of furry friends. I also completed an Animal Science program in high school, where I learned about animal behavior, how to read behavioral cues, and the basics of animal care and grooming. I’m happy to care for animals of all ages, sizes, and breeds! I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 💜🐶🐱 I currently work from home part-time and my daughter is in school 3 days a week. On school days and weekends my schedule is very open and flexible I prioritize every pet’s safety, comfort, and individual needs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications, and care. I respect pets’ boundaries, pay attention to their behavior, and make sure doors and gates are secure. I keep spaces clean, including litter boxes, and provide regular updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

“My dogs love Doreen. She is wonderful with them. She is so patient, Macy can be a little challenging when meeting new people, and takes her a long time to warm up, but it only took a few minutes. That right there speaks volumes. I highly recommend Doreen and will use her again soon.”

About: My veterinary assistant experience with small and large animals sets me apart as I keep a close eye on your animal’s health and well-being. I am not easily spooked, but I want your pet to receive the best care I can give. I am not a trainer, but I am comfortable dealing with some pets with behavioral issues. I want to create the safest and most comfortable environment for your pet, your sanity and myself! I currently work four days a week and have a three day weekend. I am looking to pet sit for people who are going on a short trip or need routine weekend care. I can be flexible with week nights, but it will need to be established well in advance. I am looking to house sit in the owners residence. My cats would not be happy to have any new comers to our family. I am very punctual with breakfast and dinner time, and I am typically one to spend time wherever the pet would like to whether that be indoors or outdoors!

About: My family has fostered over 25 dogs throughout my lifetime, many of which we have adopted. I have a wide range of experience caring for dogs of different personalities, as well as different ages, from puppies to seniors. I work part time and have a fairly flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time make sure your pups get the care they deserve! When completing drop-in visits, I can easily play with your dog(s) if there is a fenced-in yard or measures in place to ensure their safety. If needed, I am also willing to take them for a walk if that is their usual schedule. I will complete all requested tasks with the utmost care and attention to detail.

About: I have years of experience dog-sitting and cat-sitting for friends and clients, often staying at their homes to make sure pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. My friends and clients trust me to care for their pets as if they were my own, and I'm committed to providing the best care possible! My schedule allows me to visit or walk your pet after work, Mondays to Thursdays (7 am or 6 pm), and anytime from Friday to Sunday. I am also available on weekends, Friday to Sunday, for house pet sitting, so your pet will have plenty of attention and care even if you're away for an extended period! With years of experience in dog-sitting and cat-sitting, I understand the importance of creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I follow a consistent routine, ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable, and I take precautions to maintain a safe space within your home. I'm committed to reliable communication, sharing updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. By allowing each pet to approach me at their own pace, I foster trust and a positive bond, ensuring they feel comfortable and relaxed in my presence. Your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities.

About: I've had at least one dog in my house since I was in first grade. My first dog is no longer with us however, I currently have a 9-year-old black lab and a 7-month-old silver lab. My dogs love to go on hiking trails, and with your permission, I can also take your dog to new locations. I unfortunately don't have experience with other people's dogs except for friends and family. I'm currently working part-time, so I'm very flexible with times. I will put my dogs' needs first, however, making sure I have time to give them the exercise and attention they deserve. My dogs are my best friends. I always show love and respect towards them. I also understand how a dog's life can be boring sometimes. Giving them a new environment to sniff out creates a happy and exhausted pup. I try to take my older dog on a new walk/hike every week to give them an adventure and something to look forward to. I'm hoping to provide the same for your dogs. I am also a runner, so I wouldn't mind running alongside your dog. Walking/hiking/running, whatever you prefer.

About: Hi, My name is Brooke I go by Seven and my entire life has been surrounded by animals, from catching frogs, lizards, feeding the squirrels and always just having that touch even with the animals that don't trust or care for most humans. I have that special something. I started walking the whole neighborhoods dogs when i was 9 years old, i would walk up to 5 at a time. At the age of 13 i started volunteering for an animal rescue fostering dogs and cats. I was the girl growing up all my friends would bring stray or lost animals too. 16 i started working as a vet assistant, at 18 working a 150 dog ranch/doggie daycare and boarding facility to then move on into my early twenties working a place in Seattle called Dogwood Play Park, the first of its kind. It was an indoor outdoor 21 plus play park and daycare. Owners could bring their dogs to play while they had a beer and got to know other dog lovers, I built many beautiful dog... and people friendships there. I have always been told by the owners they that their dogs listens to me better..I say its just cause i am alpha pack leader!! I have massive respect and love for all animals. I worked in Portland Oregon on a farm in 2022 called Trisklee farm where i cared for all the animals on the property as farmer seven, i did weekend tours of the farm and helped run kids summer camp.I am very good with all ages and types of animals. My biggest strength is animal body language, i can read an animals move before they do it. Something i have picked up over my life span over working with animals everyday. I can administer medications and very aware of your pets behaviors to make sure they feel the most comfortable at all times. I owned guinea pigs, giant Flemish Rex rabbit, cats, and just recently lost my best friends Clyde who was a mastiff Doberman this June , he was almost 12. And Alice my English mastiff who was almost 11 back in 2023 . large breeds are my specialty. I just had a new born on July 29th 2026 and have a year and a half year old as well. I am a stay at home mom who misses her pets and want my children to grow up around animals without making the commitment right now to add to the family. So being good around children who are young and learning boundaries is a must so we don’t put your pet or my children in an uncomfortable or dangerous situation. Hope to hear from you and care for your furry babies . I am a doula and stay at home mom I jsut lost my soul dog and looking to add some furry friends to our pack as friends for my children to learn to be around and get some love . I am very loving at attentive, I notice your pets needs almost immediately and what works for them. I’ll be as involved or chill as they need me to be. It’s your pets world I’m living in it. Yet I’m still alpha and set boundaries

About: Prices can be discussed and adjusted within reason. I love animals, I grew up spending the summers with my Aunt who dog groomed and also dog sat, 5-6 dogs at a time. I have had dogs of all sizes, mini dachshund, labs, golden retriever, etc and one beautiful cat. I also grew up horseback riding, so the love for animals has always been there. Life doesn't feel right unless a dog is present. There's so many trails to take if your dog likes walks but if your pet likes to stay local and cuddle, I'm always up for that too. Whatever makes you happy and your pet feel safe and loved. I'll be sure to cater to your beloved pets as if they were my own, that is ALWAYS my goal. Give me a list of the do's and don't and I'm on it! My prices reflect the quality of my work. I also have a team as well, mentioned here and there in the reviews. I only want happy clients so my team reflects that as well. & sometimes my boyfriend does help, he's a plumber and the kindest man. Also means more people to give love and attention to your dog. With this job, you tend to be in other peoples homes more often than your own so it helps us as well. I also do not do anything you are uncomfortable with and would always discuss who is in your home. I do as I'm told by the owner and always handle with care as if they were my own and I treat my own with unconditional love. I understand this job is a vulnerable situation with having new people in your home and taking care of your fur babies. I don't take that lightly and you can see by my reviews that's what I strive for, for you to be worry free and everyone happy and content. Send me a message! Looking forward to making your life easier and worry free. ☺️✨🐶😻 If you book me, expect cute picture updates of your pets :) I do pet sitting full time. I usually am there for the most part, I do leave to drop in on other dogs, doctor appointments, things like that. If I do have an event I would always keep my time away from your pets during the duration of when they can be left which normal is 4-6 hours unless otherwise discussed. Puppies are less, 2 hours. Again, I really am not leaving, I enjoy being with the animals and bonding. I do what their routine is & if they need a kennel/crate I ask that you bring what they need that keeps them comfortable with me. In your home, I just do exactly as you would with them.

I needed someone to take my dog out for a walk on short notice. Nicole was able to make time on the Fourth of July to walk and play with my Rosie. She was gracious to clean up a couple accidents Rosie made in the house while we were away. I always enjoy seeing pictures of my dog on her walk or playing fetch with Nicole when we are away. Nicole has been very dependable and helpful!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Preston City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Preston City is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 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 1,248 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Preston City. 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 Preston City. 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 Preston City 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 Preston City. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
