About: I’ve always lived with pets in my home and love spending time with them. Previously, I’ve helped watch my sister-in-law’s senior cat and have lots of patience with all animals. I’m currently between jobs so I’m very available to spend as much time as needed with your pets! I also love going on walks frequently throughout the day. Currently, I only live with a cat and she is quite independent. I’ve watched a few of my friend’s dogs and am able to stick to a routine for food and walks. I’m naturally a very detail-oriented person.
“Grace was great with our energetic puppy Darcy. He was anxious to meet someone new, but she calmed him down with treats and pets. She was very communicative and arrived right on time. Would definitely recommend her as a dog walker!”

About: I’ve had two wonderful dogs since they were 10 weeks old. We’ve completed dog training classes together and I’ve learned all about pet care through them. Im currently working from home and never travel because I have a toddler son and 2 dogs, so im often available on weekends for pet care and during the week for walks I have two friendly dogs to keep your dog company and a large house for plenty of play space. I’m also experienced with picky eating dogs.
“Nicole is amazing! She treated Diesel like he was apart of her family. He went on atleast 30 minute walks which is needed for my dog. If you have dogs that are interested in other animals, Nicole knows how to regain attention from your dog and complete the walk. I will definitely be using Nicole again.”
“Carla was on time and sent me pictures of the walk she took with my dog. I appreciate her help and she has been flexible with my confusing schedule. Would recommend and plan to use her services again in the future.”

About: I have just relocated to the DMV area and am excited to finally meet all of my neighborhood pups in 2026. :) I have had my own dog, a small yorkie, since I was 16 and have always loved dogs. I have also fostered a pittie for about a year in 2025 and he was the sweetest. He was reactive to particular dogs so I have experience with reactivity if distance or certain avoidance (including time, certain people, dogs, etc) is needed for peaceful walks. This also includes training techniques for reactivity. I have experience dog sitting and walking for all sizes - extra small to extra large, and ages - puppies to senior care. I have provided day visits and overnights stays within care periods. My senior dog care is always handled with love and care as I have experience putting diapers on if needed and aiding in movement, potty breaks, and clean-ups. I have dog walked and provided drop-in visits, for families, neighbors, and friends regularly throughout my life. I am a regular with Brandywine’s ASPCA “Dog’s Day Out” to help shelter dogs decompress from their cages. I also volunteer with Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and P3 Rescue regularly. Additionally, I work with DC Dog Hikes, taking small packs on morning hikes to get their exercise in. My own dogs, my yorkie and pittie, I trained with my own expertise. My yorkie I had since he was 8 weeks old and my pittie at the ripe teenage years of 1. As a reactive pittie, we worked through a lot of behavior and obedience and I set him up for success with his forever family! Obedience and patience training should always be an enjoyable experience for dogs. I am currently aiding my neighbors in training their two young pups, cane corso annd German shepherd mix, out of littermate syndrome. If you need reinforcements of training you are working on, or overall tips and tricks, I am your girl! As I am currently an empty nester with no pups at this time, I am open to all ages, sizes, breeds, and energies. I love canine’s and plan to give your pet the best care possible and make sure they’re having just as much fun as I will. :) I have a fully remote job. I will have meetings daily but create my own schedule. That allows me more flexibility with all puppers in my care. In my clients home I can easily play with your dog(s) and care for them as needed (i.e. - walk them, take them out to play, train them, play inside, crate them if needed/desired by client’s request, follow training instructions if needed, etc). My top priorities are giving the best care your pupper needs, following and meeting the desires of my clients, and providing a fun and loving experience for your pet.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riverdale Park
Maria has been just exceptional! She’s been walking my boy regularly for the last few weeks and she really puts her heart into looking after him. It was too hot to take him out for a full 1/2 hour so she spent the remainder of the time playing with and petting him. She’s also been great at letting me know how he’s been during the day. I’d highly recommend her!

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 Riverdale Park. 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 Riverdale Park.

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 Riverdale Park. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs

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.
