Your pup will be so happy, they’ll seem like a puppy all over again🥰 I also used to work at a dog grooming company!

“Kassidy🌸 has been great she took lots of pictures and I know my pup had a good time with her. She showed up on time and kept me informed. Will be setting up future dog walks with her🌼”
“Lucas is super friendly, patient, dependable and great with our pups. He takes his time walking them, and goes the extra mile with their care. He gives us great updates and communication. We don’t worry about the pups on work days anymore. :-)”
“It has been a sound piece of minding knowing my puppy will be walked while I'm gone. Neige has done a spectacular job! She sends pics and locations while walking. And always locks up the house before she leaves. I highly recommend selecting her for your fur babies!”
“Atlas adores Luke. Luke did very well with him on his walks, and even a run at one point. He is dependable and flexible, I couldn't have asked for a better professional dog walker. Thank you so much Luke.”

Your furry friends will be treated like my own, receiving reliable and loving care every time. I've been living and pet sitting in Elizabethtown, KY for a few years but am now moving back to the Owensboro area. My calendar is ready to add you to it! I'm available and ready to give your fur baby everything they need with lots of love! The only scheduling consideration is that I must be at church on Sunday mornings. Outside of that, I have a very flexible schedule and am committed to making everything work smoothly. I will love your pets like my own and I can’t wait to meet them! As a Christian woman that's a former missionary, I value safety, trust, and a nurturing environment for all pets.

I have experience taking care of animals ages 8 weeks all the way up to 20 years! I am available 7 out of 7 days of the week! I get how chaotic life can be! That’s why my scheduling times are flexible to meet your and your pets needs. Safety is the top priority! My services and activities will be customized to the outdoor conditions (too hot or too cold = shorter walks outside and more indoor play time). As a pet parent, my house stays pet proof: no loose wires, batteries, sharp objects, etc. I have a 6ft privacy fence and use no chemicals in the yard. I am certified in animal first aid and CPR.
“I couldn’t be happier with my first experience with Olivia on Rover. From the start, she was communicative, punctual, and clearly passionate about caring for dog. My pup enjoyed every moment of the walk and came home tired and content. The detailed updates and friendly demeanor made all the difference. I highly recommend Olivia’s services!”
About: I have always loved animals. I have rescued animals for the last 30 years. Currently my newest rescue is 1 and full of spunk. I tend to rescue seniors and of course care for my sisters and parents animals why they are away. This is giving me the opportunity to care for animals while the owners are away! I do house sit for my neighbor when he is out of town and my dogs get along great with his. I currently have 4 very spoiled dogs. I will follow instructions to the letter provided by the owners, I feel it is important to follow all rules.
About: I’m a middle school teacher first, but I’ve had dogs all my life and have been dogsitting for the past five years through word of mouth and friend recommendations. I started then and loved it, so thought I would expand by joining Rover! We are a pet-loving family who loves having animals as “extra family” in our homes to give their own family peace of mind while they are at work or traveling. During the summer break, I’m available during the day, nights, and weekends. During the school year I am only available for overnight and weekend sitting. We have a large fenced in yard and a friend-loving golden retriever and a really big 2 year old helper. Pets kept in our home are treated just like our pets. Some of our clients even pile up in our bed! We want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible with us as it can already be stressful being separated from family.
“Whitney was awesome!! Oscar loved her and was overjoyed to see her each time. He is a sweet boy but quite a headstrong beagle. She handled him perfectly. He was happy and tired at the end of each walk. This was the first time using Rover.com. Home recovering from an accident and Whitney saved the day. Considering getting on a weekly schedule. ?”
About: I’ve taken a year long course at Liberty K-9 in Hawsville, KY, learning how to teach and instruct dogs. I love them. Dogs are interesting and intelligent creatures. And each has their own personality. Let me care for your dog the way I would care for my own. I am currently a stay at home mother of two school aged children. And I have copious amounts of availability. And I am very flexible and willing to work around schedules. We have a two story home with a fenced in back yard. Lots of room to run around and play. I also have big couches for lazy dogs and warm beds with kiddos who love dogs. We also have a guest room for dogs that prefer not sharing a bed with a kiddo. We have a dachshund for a playmate. We have kennels for average and large size dogs. And I have a pass for the bathing station at pet supplies plus for all the bathing needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Rome on Rover is $18.87 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 167 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rome. 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 Rome. 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 Rome.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
