“Dawn was so great! Over the Christmas holiday I had surgery and my boyfriend got really sick. Poor Ranger was desperate to get out and Dawn came the same day we made the request! I will definitely book again. Thanks, Dawn! ☺️”
“Chey was an absolute godsend to my family during a last minute need for dog walking services! I contacted her about 3 days before having to go out of town and she responded promptly and was able to arrange a meet and greet the very next day. She was insanely attentive to my little pup, Gertie, for 2 weeks while I was out of town and her daily updates and pics of Gertie were personable and very much appreciated! Chey is reliable, communicative and overall an awesome resource for all of us dog owners who are over protective of our 4 legged babies. Thank you Chey!!! 💕💕”
“I can’t say enough good things about Jennifer!! This was the first time having someone walk my boys and what an incredible experience. Will be using Jennifer’s services again!! 10/10 RECOMMEND!!!”
About: I’ve spent over 21 years caring for cats, 10 years raising dogs, and 5 years caring for bearded dragons through personal experience. Throughout the years, I’ve cared for animals at every life stage, from kittens and puppies to senior pets that require extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed feeding and medication schedules, and caring for cats with FIV. Every pet has a unique personality, and I’m experienced working with everything from calm, shy companions to energetic, playful pets. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, active playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care while you’re away! My regular availability is Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. I’m also available for weekend visits, overnight stays, and extended care when you’re traveling. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I strive to keep them on their normal schedule for meals, bathroom breaks, medications, exercise, and playtime. I’ll communicate with you throughout each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for! Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine are my highest priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, personality, and any special care instructions before every visit. I provide plenty of exercise, playtime, affection, and mental stimulation while always respecting your pet’s comfort level. I’m also happy to take dogs on walks, transport pets to grooming appointments if requested, and provide regular updates with photos so you always know how they’re doing while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved until you return!
About: I have had dogs and many different animals my whole life. I have also worked as a pet technician in a dog daycare for a while so I have experience with small medium and large dogs. I have a lot of open availability and I make time for pets. I have a big heart for animals and this is what I love to do! I am currently not working, I am taking college classes online so I have a flexible schedule. I am very dependable and will make sure your dog has a good time during the whole visit. I am very overly cautious when it comes to watching dogs mainly because I have 2 of my own and make sure they don't eat anything they aren't supposed. I know how crazy some dogs can be and they need to be watched at all times. I also do potty breaks every 2 hours to prevent any accidents and I make sure the dogs don't get too hot on walks.

About: Hey! I have experience as a veterinary professional with over 10 years of caring for pets, including emergency medicine. I’ve always had a burning passion to care for animals since I was young. I am experienced in giving medications and also providing lots of attention and love while you’re away. I have pets of my own and understand the love, care, and affection they need while you’re away and I know what it’s like to need someone special to take care of them. I enjoy being active so going on walks, playing tug-of-war, or even ball is not a problem. I love to keep pet parents updated with pictures and videos. I like to follow the same routines as you would for your furry family members to ensure they have a calm and comfortable experience. I will provide exceptional and experienced service for you and your furry friends so you can relax in knowing they are safe and comfortable:) We can always figure out a schedule that works for everyone! I am always trying to figure out what works best for everyone’s schedule, so if you have questions we can talk prior to booking. I do not board at my home. Typically to keep a nice stable and calm environment I encourage my clientele to allow me to stay at their home or periodically check in on their pets in their own home. I have found that over the years being in their own home is where pets are most comfortable and safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Ridgeville on Rover is $18.87 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 .

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 Ridgeville. 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 Ridgeville.

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 Ridgeville. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
