The best dog walkers! They go beyond and above for my dog. Always sending me updates during my long hopsital shifts. They even give my dog baths and provide homemade organic treats my dog loves.

Sherri did a great job taking care of Pico once again. She was also willing/able to work with us to extend our trip, when our original vacay plans fell through, so the trip wasn’t a loss.

We cannot say enough about how awesome Amanda is! She is so sweet!! She came twice a day to walk my mom's papillon for a good halfhour each time and little Courtney just loves Amanda! As I live out of town, finding Amanda to walk my mom's pupper was an absolute godsend!! As I'm the one with the River app, I had great peace of mind getting the daily updates that she was picking up and returning little Courtney and the daily pics were nice to get too! We will definitely rebook with Amanda anytime we need her because of the great care she took of Courtney.

Julie has been an exceptional sitter for my dog, Kingston. My schedule can be unpredictable, and trips often come up at inconvenient times, but Julie has always been flexible and accommodating to make everything work seamlessly. She took the time to come over, carefully review all of Kingston’s care instructions, and followed them perfectly without any issues. I had complete confidence knowing Kingston was in great hands, from his daily walks to administering his medication. Julie provides outstanding communication, professionalism, and genuine care for pets. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter.

About: I have taken care of animals for as long I can remember! I am a patient, dependable pet owner experienced and comfortable with all ages and breeds, including cats, kittens, puppies, seniors, and handicap pets, providing attentive and basic medical care with compassion. During drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting I dedicate my time to loving your fur babies and making them as comfortable as possible while you are away. I am a high school teacher, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I am available full time this summer for drop ins or house sittings when needed, and I look forward to spending time with your animals! When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks and continue their normal routine to make them the most comfortable. I care deeply for pets, providing attentive, daily care. At home, I sit with my cats during meals, clean, play, and groom them. During visits, I enjoy snuggling, going to walks, and spending quality time with your fur babies, to make them feel safe and comfortable.

About: 🐾 Your dog will be treated like family from the moment they arrive. I know how hard it is to leave your furry best friend with someone else, which is why I make it my mission to provide a safe, loving, and fun environment where they feel right at home. I’ve spent over 20 years caring for dogs of all personalities and sizes, and I genuinely love every minute of it. Whether your pup enjoys playing fetch, going for walks, exploring the yard, or getting plenty of belly rubs and attention, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for throughout their stay. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your dog is in great hands. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and personalized care, and I treat each one as if they were my own. I’d love to meet you and your four-legged family member, send me a message and let’s see if we’re the perfect match! I work from home, which means your pup will enjoy plenty of companionship, attention, and supervised time throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to provide regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of love. Like any family, I occasionally step out for errands or appointments. If your dog experiences separation anxiety or isn’t comfortable being left alone for short periods, I kindly ask that you provide a crate or let me know their specific needs in advance so we can ensure they stay safe and comfortable while I’m away. My goal is to make every pet feel at home while giving owners complete peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I care for both dogs and cats, and I treat every furry guest like a member of my own family. For dogs staying in my home, I provide frequent, structured potty breaks and exercise throughout the day. Since I don’t have a fenced backyard, dogs are taken on regular walks every 2–3 hours and again about 40 minutes after meals to keep them comfortable, active, and on a healthy routine. My home has an open-concept layout, and all pets remain safely on the downstairs level with a baby gate blocking access to the stairs, creating a secure environment where they can relax and play under supervision. For cats, I provide a calm, low-stress environment that respects their unique personalities and routines. Whether they’re playful or prefer their own space, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving them the attention they need on their terms. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, playtime, and any special instructions. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, relaxed pet—and to have complete peace of mind while you’re away.

I recently hired Nicole to take care of my dog, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From our first meeting, it was clear that they genuinely love animals and understand their needs. Nicole is always punctual, reliable, and communicates regularly with updates and photos from their walks. My dog absolutely adores them and comes back happy and tired after each session, which speaks volumes about the care and attention given. The walks are tailored to my dog’s energy level, ensuring he gets the exercise he needs. I highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!

About: Hi! My name is Isabel and I truly love animals. I have several years of experience caring for pets for friends and family and I treat every dog like part of my own family. I provide a safe, calm and loving environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy walking, playing and giving dogs the attention they deserve. I always send photos and updates so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness and comfort are always my priority. During the week I am available in the mornings and early afternoons (8 AM – 4:30 PM). I attend classes from 5:30 PM to 8:15 PM, but I am available again in the evenings after that if needed. On weekends I have more flexibility and can work mornings or afternoons. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. When I stay in a pet owner’s home, I follow their routines and instructions carefully to keep their pets relaxed and happy. I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect, just like they were my own.

About: I was a sophomore in high school when I first dog sat Myla, a golden retriever. She ignited my love for animals. For my 16th birthday, I begged my parents for a dog and got Troy, a golden retriever. I have loved him like my own child. My love for Troy has led me to babysit so many other fur babies ranging from my in law’s Australian Doodle to neighbor’s golden doodle. I have experience caring for pups and senior dogs. Families describe me as trustworthy, organized, warm-hearted, and easy to communicate with. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I strive to provide peace of mind through reliability, respect, and professionalism. I will care for your fur baby like my own. I currently work part-time as a flight attendant so I’m open and flexible to scheduling. Every pet is different so I adjust my schedule to their unique schedule and needs, whether that includes exercise, medication, or extra cuddles and companionship. I care for pets as if they were my own. In my clients’ homes, I follow their established routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while maintaining a clean and safe environment. My goal is to keep pets happy, stress-free, and well cared for while their owners are away. 🐾💕

I cannot express enough how amazing Dana was with my dog Pongo! To start, I reached out very last minute in need of her help and she responded super quickly and professionally. She asked about the care he needed and even asked for an emergency contact in case something happened since I was at work. Then she of course arrives in time (which is always appreciated) only to find my lock wasn’t working properly so she could get in. Where others would likely have tried calling once before giving up and leaving, she was persistent and waited until she could get in contact with me so she could get into the house to take care of Pongo. Last but not least was her care for Pongo. She went above and beyond showing up, walking him, and leaving. She took excellent care of him playing, walking, and refreshing is water. All while keeping me updated along the way. Dana was absolutely amazing and I will be using her again in the future!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Progress Village

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Progress Village on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 7,566 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Progress Village. 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 Progress Village. 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 Progress Village.

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 Progress Village. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
