“I had a work obligation, so I needed help in walking my puppy for a week, including one evening. She showed up on time every day, Saba was well taken care of in my absence. I will definitely be hiring Diane in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11yo. I’ve cared for Australian Shepherds, Poodles, Rat Terriers, Cairn Terriers, Papillions, Irish Wolfhounds, Pit Bulls, Bichon Frisés, and more. I have four dogs now: German Shepherd Mix, German Shorthaired Pointer, and two Pembroke Corgis. I’m familiar with small and large dogs. I’m non-judgmental and understanding if your baby has separation-anxiety. I work 8AM to 4PM Monday through Thursday, but am free to watch your babies in the evening and Friday through Sunday. I provide drop-in visits and house-sitting. I have a fenced-in yard, two crates and four dogs all ready to be their new best friend! I do prefer to watch them in your home, not mine as I have one dog that isn’t the most friendly.

About: I have hands‑on experience from my two years working in a veterinary clinic, where I cared for dogs of all ages & needs. I’m a mature, fully background‑checked, Wilson County school employee with extensive experience supporting senior dogs, administering medication, helping dogs with anxiety needs, & pets who require extra patience. I provide calm, consistent, & loving care each & every visit. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, whether you’re at work or out of town. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your baby at home is safe, comfortable, & cared for. I’m an Educational Assistant from Mt. Juliet High on summer break. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my senior dog, Penny, every day. My schedule is very open & flexible. I’m home all summer, available throughout the week & nearly every weekend. I'm trying to fill-in for those missing summertime paychecks while providing reliable, loving care for other people's pets. I’m fully background‑checked & fingerprinted through the school system & I take safety very seriously. I bring years of life experience, maturity, and reliability to pet care. Families can appreciate my calm, steady presence & the consistency I bring to every visit. I provide safe, reliable care by following each pet’s routine exactly as instructed. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, attentive to details, & focused on creating a calm, stress‑free environment for every visit. I know how tough it can be to leave your pet behind, even for a short time. I’ll treat your baby or babies with the same care & attention I give my own, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: Hi! I worked at a local vet office for 2 years helping with boarding, care while in room, walking dogs and providing love and care. I have also owned a dog or dogs since I was 10. I adore animals and will treat your family’s sweet pet as my own. I currently work from home and have flexible availability to come and go to better assist families. I am available at all hours that are needed. My current pet, Jack, is walked multiple times daily. We only crate when we leave. I am offering dog walking services. I am aware on how to safely walk dogs in their familiar areas. I am aware of how to harness and walk dogs of all sizes and safely return to the home. If the family has preferences for crating or putting away in certain rooms, I will follow directives on how properly place your loved animal away safely until you return home.

I have a fenced yard, a pool, and a very sweet little dog who loves company. With a very spacious car and a personal fondness for hiking I can take your pet on nature excursions or to vet appointments. If needed, I can easily separate pets for feeding or quiet time to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable in their own space.

About: I make sure to show the animals all the love and attention they need! It is more to taking care of pets than just feeding and walking them! They need physical affection as well! I have two dogs myself so i’m very used to taking good care of animals 24/7. I want to do this full time so it would fit into my schedule very well! I make sure to take lots of time with my animals and i also make sure to keep a very close eye on certain animals!

About: My entire life I have been raised around large breed dogs, cats, and fish. I am also familiar with reptile, monkey, equestrian, farm animal, and small mammal care. Such as cleaning pens, feedings, cleaning tanks, ear canal cleanings, nail trimming, bathing, and deshedding! The personal pets you see listed on my profile are 100% accurate as well, most people find it shocking but I’ve always been raised around an entire pack of animals and they are all in the best health with the most love we could possibly surround them with! I am completely available to watch your animals! I am hoping to make this a full time job, so please book me for your long trips, and daily walks! I can ensure that I will leave your house cleaner than when I arrived. My parents run 5 AirBnB cabins, and I am the housekeeper for the guests to ensure sanitary sheets, towels, and plates/dishes are provided. As well as a well kept, and clean living environment while they enjoy our stay with us! I was previously a school custodian for South Warren Middle School in Bowling Green, KY, so cleaning was a daily job for me and I thoroughly enjoy it. Now I hope to love on animals and make sure that THEY stay in a sanitary and clean environment.

About: I’ve never met a doggie I don’t wanna love on! Growing up with my family boxer Quila ( 13 yrs old) it’s no wonder why I love dogs so much. They are the kindest creatures ever. My favorite past times are trips to the farmers market, local park adventures and movies nights cuddles. I occasionally care for my family and friends dogs while they skip town of a bit. From small walks around the block or baths and feeding Im the best pick for your furry friends. I work at a local grocery store but usually work early morning so I’m free in the afternoons and evenings mainly. Weekend availability as well I cater to your pets needs. I will protect them as if they were my owe. Safety is my first concern for every pet sitting I work a Monday thru Friday job but make it work. I use my lunch breaks to go check/ care for then. I’m free all weekend. It all depends on your pets comfort. Most times I stay in comfort place their home to make sure they feel the best while you’re gone. From daily Roy tunes to spontaneous walk/ play time outside my goal is always to keep the doggies the happiest during their sitting 💕

About: I grew up around animals my whole life. I had a dog named gizmo who was a purebred collie for 13 year, who was my best friend. I understand taking the extra gentle care needed for dogs that are senior or have dementia. I like to talk animals and make them always feel safe. My dog that's currently still in Florida until time being with my mom, I used to sing too every day. I just moved from south Florida after 12 years. I have alot of down time currently. I do Uber and door dash for other side work. I am very flexible if you need me to do pop in visits during any hour, overnight stays etc. I understand the importance of having someone you can trust depend on while youre away from your fur babies. It can be a very stressful situation. I am good at communicating. I understand the importance of phone calls, texts, picture updates, and keeping you daily informed on your animal. I would follow through on your list of instructions and if I had any questions contact you, to make sure everything was done to ensure the highest quality care for your pet. I would treat your animals safety, happiness, well being like they are my own 😃

FAQs for Dog Walking - Rome

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Rome is $13 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $16 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,149 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 bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Rome after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rome. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
