“We’ve been fortunate to have Christina walk our dogs several times now, she is the absolute best! She is very knowledgeable and understanding of special needs of one of our 3 dogs. I don’t trust many with them but I trust Christina. I highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again.”
About: Growing up there was never a moment we didn’t have dogs or cats running around the house. I currently have 3 dogs and 4 cats that I love deeply. I do have some kitten and senior dog experience, our dog Zooza had been with us for 14 years. As she got older she required some small medications, so I do have some experience with smaller medications. I love to give all my animals love whether it is giving cuddles, playing with them, or walking them. I hope I can do the same for your family one day! As stated before I currently have 3 dogs and 4 cats, so it is a daily routine with them. I’m usually in charge of the dogs getting their weekly wash. I also take turns with my family when it comes to feeding. I have a cat of my own and I am capable and responsible to change and clean her litter boxes. I can safely crate your dogs if needed, I will also assure that all doors are closed at all times. If you request walks, I will make sure the dogs are safely harnessed. There will always be enough food and water for them. Their safety is my top priority and making sure they are always comfortable.
“Daniel has been walking our dogs when we head out of town and he has been so reliable and responsive. Very easy to communicate and book with him! I’d highly recommend him to anyone seeking dog care in any form.”

About: I have owned and taken care of many different types of animals in my life. I was a dog walker and pet sitter for many of my neighbors and family members growing up. I have the most experience with large dog breeds such as german shepherds, Australian shepherds, golden retrievers, labs, and huskies. Im currently working part time and going to school but I am flexible most of the time most weekdays. I love talking early morning walks :) As I said before, I love animals, so if I was housesitting, and I spend as much time as possible, bonding with your animal. I will require specific instructions in order to take care of your animal to the best of my ablility

About: I have grown up with dogs for as long as I can remember. My mom was a poodle breeder and I would help her take care of puppies and play with them. If they ever got sick I was able to help with shots and keeping them clean. I also have house sat with my grandmas pets, two have diabetes so I also know how to give shots if needed. I also have experience feeding animals specific foods and amounts. I love animals and get along with them greatly. I also care deeply about making sure your animals feel comfortable and happy. I enjoy walking my three dogs so I figured I could walk other peoples dogs and make some extra money while enjoying spending time with them.

About: Hi all :) 👋🏼 I’m a dog lover and recently became a Mama of 1, so that means lots of walks and park visits. I figured dog walking would be the perfect addition to my day. I grew up around animals.. dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, chickens, you name it. I'm also more than willing to learn any tips/tricks to better equip myself to take care of your little fur baby. I am an Esthetician by trade and I love what I do, but recently had a baby so I’ve taken time off to be with him. Our days are we really calm so I thought adding a furry friend would make our daily routine more exciting! Each pet is different, but having patience with each animal and knowing they have their individual personalities is what I’ve discovered works best in any situation.

Jennifer goes above and beyond!! I am a repeat customer and I am very satisfied with her care and devotion to walking my 2 fur babies. We had the heaviest and steady rainfall every time she was scheduled to walk the dogs and she never canceled. She followed through with the responsibility rain or shine. Thank you Jennifer 👍🏼😊
Christina was an absolute delight to work with. She was very responsive in communications and easy to contact. She took the time to meet with our dog and get the know him. During the walks we received photos and a very detailed description of our dogs activities, including interactions with other dogs. She was a joy to work with and very flexible in meeting with us before and after our trip. We would highly recommend her services!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 277 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rector. 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 Rector. 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 Rector.
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 Rector. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
