“Nicole took great care of my pets while I was away. She checked in often, and sent great updates and photos. I’m lucky to have found her and won’t hesitate to use her again when I’m out of town. Thanks , Nicole!”
“Jacqueline is awesome! She took great care of our Dorothy. She is extremely sweet and great with animals. She was great with communication and sent pictures of Dorothy. We first did a meet and greet and I knew right away she would be great. Her love for animals is evident! I felt safe leaving Dorothy in her hands. I would 100% recommend Jacqueline for any of your pets needs! I would 10/10 use her again! 🙂”
“Angela was great, Charlie enjoyed her walks. Charlie is pretty well behaved but still a big girl at 80-lbs and they did great together. Angela even brought in a package for me.”
About: I have been in the caring business since my teenage years - babysitting my younger siblings, caring for my family dog, running a summer enrichment program for at risk youth, caring for horses at a dude ranch and a western suburbs farm, minding many friends' dogs, and wrangling my own two senior dogs - brother and sister, now 14 years old. (But, so rambunctious for their first 10+ years). I love dogs and will care for your dog just as you would. One of my dogs is now blind and the other requires daily subcutaneous fluids so I am willing and able to help out with any of your pet's special needs as well..... I know how stressful it can be to ensure a routine is kept. Pet first aid and CPR certified. I am currently on a full time job hunt in marketing analytics and very available (with notice) to care for your dogs most days and evenings as I can search and do freelance work remotely. Depending on your dog's needs I can usually provide bathroom breaks every 4 hours in between errands, etc. My calendar will be updated to show days I plan to be away. At this time, I can care for pets in my client's home. I do need to bring my dogs for the overnight portion of the stay but will keep them separate in a room/space of your choosing during the evening (and on bedroom floor at night). They are very dog friendly just very sleepy and do well snoozing someplace quiet.
About: Fully insured for your peace of mind. Dog mom to my pup Zephyr. Over 25 years of hands on dog experience. Reliable dog lover treating every pup like family and every walk like an adventure. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog mom to my lab, Zephyr, my days are built around walks, exercise, and making sure he is happy and well cared for. I structure my schedule to provide consistent, reliable walks and visits, so each dog gets the attention, safety, and care they deserve. I do 3 walks a day, depending on your dogs needs and physical limitations. I also provide mental stimulation activities to balance out their energy. I will not be hosting another dog while your pup is in my care because they are my number 1 priority. I have 1 very friendly 5 year old Labrador that gets plenty of walks, treats, kisses and love. Your pup will be very welcome in our pack!
“Emily was wonderful with our Great Dane! She was prompt, kind and patient with her. She was very in tune with our pups needs during their walks, and was so mindful on the very hot days to take it slow or return for water when needed. Our pup is known to have some undesirable behavior on walks, and Emily came a few days early to meet her, learn her nuances and took notes so she was prepared to manage it. Looking forward to working with Emily again!”
“Sam took the BEST care of my girl while I was away on a long trip. I had booked ahead of time and she committed to the plan and even accommodated last minute adjustments on my end! I am so thankful for Sam and her dedication to her clients!”
“Barry is the absolute best. It took my my dog 0.5 secs to instantly fall in love with him & become besties for life lol Barry is always on time & so helpful & informative & takes a ton of pictures so I know my dog is having an absolute blast while getting some much needed exercise while I’m out with an injury. Mikey gets so excited when he sees him cuz he knows he’s gonna have such a fun time with a really nice dude who clearly loves all dogs.”
About: I started walking dogs as a first job when I was a kid! My family and I have always had dogs. Our most recent dog is an adopted mix, named Gogurt! I’m experienced caring for the pets of my family and friends. Looking forward to meeting your four legged friends! I am currently working PT, and have been with the same company for 30 years. I have flexibility on my off days, and can manage hours during the days/evenings. I am happy to meet your schedule needs when possible! At this time, I do not offer overnight services. In addition to walks and drop ins, I do home care during the day in clients’ homes.
About: I’m a devoted dog lover and stay-at-home pet caregiver with a friendly, nearly 5-year-old beagle who adores canine company. I have lots of time to cater to your dog’s needs—whether that’s plenty of cuddles, neighborhood walks, or longer hikes—and our beagle has a calm, social temperament and has never met a dog he didn’t get along with. He even helps new dogs settle in at daycare thanks to his gentle nature. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and energy levels and tailor walks and activity to each dog’s needs (short, slow strolls or more active outings). Safe, attentive care and lots of affection are guaranteed—happy to discuss routines, feeding, and any special needs your dog has. I’m currently not employed so my days are flexible. Any doggos that come to the house will be joined by our friendly beagle. Walks are completely up to your discretion. I will do whatever is easiest and the most safe for your pets. We have a crate in our house that can be used if needed. We also have a yard that is not fenced in.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I’m all about communication and getting to know your furbaby. Whether it’s at my house or yours I will treat your pets like family! I own a small cleaning business that keeps me busy but allows flexibility too. I’m available for sitting and boarding on weekdays after 3pm and on weekends. I can care for pets in my home or yours. I have a large yard with walking trails to the reservoir. Not fenced. I have a friendly dog who will be 15 in Oct and loves to play still.
“Juliette makes both my day and the dogs day so much better, the dog gets some exercise and i get the best pictures and commentary! It’s so reassuring knowing she’s in good hands with someone who cares ! We can’t say enough good things about Juliette !”
“Shreya is communicative, friendly and Scarlett always looks forward to her walks. :) She was very receptive of my info about Scarlett as she tends to be leash reactive toward other dogs. She handles her well, no complaints!”
“Abhay has had 5 visits with Peach and will be coming regularly. Abhay has been wonderful with Peach. He is patient and kind with Peach. Peach has a history of abuse and is very fearful of strangers but she is comfortable and happy to see him”
About: Certified "Fur Grammy" and the go-to for any pet related questions. I have been caring for not only my own but my kids dogs for as long as I can remember. I have fostered just about any pet including goats, sheep, ponies, dogs... I love all animals (maybe more than humans, shh!) and my life has always revolved around pets. My current household includes a 9 year old male mutt, Diddy. He is friendly and playful but appreciates his snuggle time as well. Have experience with various breeds including Bullies, St Bernards, Spaniels, you name it ! I am very flexible and available for any pet needs. My pup rarely goes more than 2 hours alone, if ever, and neither will your dog. I have a fenced in yard, that has been safe for 13 sheep, 2 goats, a pony and 4 dogs all at one time. I live next to expansive conservation land with a wonderful trail through the woods for the dogs. We truly feel our home is the perfect set up for pets & have homed & baby sat & fostered many wonderful animals here. I hope to add your pet to that list!

Nicole has been walking my dog Banjo for a few months now. She does a wonderful job communicating, giving me a recap of their walk together and making sure he has food and water before she leaves him. She's attentive to detail and highly responsive. Definitely recommend!
Madeline has been walking our Pittie for several months now and does a great job burning her energy out! It has spoiled her and our dog now expects an afternoon walk everyday. Madeline also lets us know if she notices any issues with her habits or stools so we have another set of eyes to help in our busy schedule.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Rockland on Rover is $17.76 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 9,828 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rockland. 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 Rockland. 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 Rockland.

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 Rockland. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
