About: With six years of experience in dog/house sitting and dog walking, I have cultivated a strong rapport with both pets and their owners. My journey began with a genuine love for animals and a commitment to providing them with the care and attention they deserve while their owners are away. Dog Walking: As a dog walker, I prioritize the physical and emotional well-being of each dog I care for. I understand the importance of regular exercise and socialization for dogs, and I tailor each walk to meet their individual needs. My approach includes: • Ensuring safety during walks by using appropriate leashes and harnesses. • Adapting routes to accommodate the dog’s energy level and preferences. • Providing companionship and engagement, making walks enjoyable and stimulating. House Sitting: In my role as a house sitter, I take on the responsibility of maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for pets and their homes. My services include: • Feeding, grooming, and administering medication as needed. • Maintaining daily routines to reduce stress for pets. • Keeping the home secure and tidy, including watering plants and collecting mail. • Regular updates for pet owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Commitment to Care: I am dedicated to fostering a loving and safe environment for pets in my care. My goal is to provide not only a service but also companionship, ensuring that each pet feels comfortable and valued during their owner’s absence. My experience allows me to handle various breeds and temperaments with confidence and care. Having 2 cats myself I dedicate myself daily to making sure they’re each happy and well cared for. Love playing with them and keeping them sharp! Stick to daily routines since animals tend to rely on schedules. Love to make sure everyone’s cared for as well as the space they live in.
About: I am flexible to any needs you or your pet require and really just want to help make you feel more comfortable being away from them while also giving the love and care they need while you’re away! You can rely on me to take good care of your fur baby! Updated as of 11/17/25. Right now, I am available frequently for any services I have listed and have a flexible schedule. I can travel to Cedar City, Enterprise, Saint George and Beryl. I do however have a baby that will be coming with me to any or most bookings. Message me to chat more about any questions you may have! Just let me know what kind of schedule you have for your pet and i’ll always try to follow it so they don’t feel any major changes while you’re away! i will also always send pictures and let you know how your fur baby is doing :)) i understand being an anxious pet parent hahah.
About: I’m a huge dog lover and have been around dogs my entire life, dogs of all different sizes and breeds. I’ve experienced caring for special needs dogs as well as senior dogs! When your fur baby comes to my house they will be treated like one of our own. We have a pup of our own, a German shepherd husky mix named Chloe, she’s almost 8. She loves keeping other pup friends company when they stay in our home. We live in an area with endless trails and would love to take your pup on walks or adventures with us if you are comfortable with that. I recently lost my beloved 12 year old German Shepherd just before Christmas of 2025. I currently work at home full time, other than every now and then when needing to run my kids to school or activities. Your pup and I can keep each other company and I would love their companionship to fill the void I am missing in my daily routine! I can provide all day care to your pup and provide potty breaks when needed. We have a fenced back yard with a locked gate. I also have a indoor kennel if your pup needs to be in a kennel to go to bed or if we need to leave the house. I can provide any care that your dog is in need of when staying in my home!

The average cost for Dog Walking in Rockville on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Rockville. 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.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .

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.
