“I booked Christa last minute while I was traveling, and she was absolutely amazing. She came by twice in one day, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly great with my dog. I could tell my dog felt comfortable and well cared for. I’m so grateful she was available on short notice and would definitely book her again. Highly recommend!”

“Michelle has been fantastic. She's great about sending updates and photos during the walk, so we never have to wonder how things went. We're completely comfortable having her let herself into our house - she's clearly trustworthy and treats our home with respect. Both of our dogs, Max and Louis, get genuinely excited when they see Michelle, which says it all. Highly recommend her!”

About: I'm the proud owner of a rambunctious little goldendoodle that I've raised from puppyhood to adulthood, so I have plenty of experience with caring for dogs through every stage of life, in both sickness and health, and from fussy moods to bouts of hyperactivity. Moreover, I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have kept everything from gerbils to birds. As a pet owner, I know it can be stressful leaving your sweet little angel with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind and provide attentive care for your pet. More than happy to accommodate any special requests. Glad to send pics and updates as well! I occasionally travel for work, but when I'm home, I have a very flexible schedule and can devote plenty of time to the pets I'm caring for. I'm also an early riser, so morning walks and feeding schedules are never a problem. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I take the responsibility seriously and will always keep you in the loop. If your pet has any special needs or routine (whether it's avoiding certain foods, allergens, other dogs, or following specific care instructions), I'll be happy to accommodate them. Your peace of mind is my priority.

About: I worked for doggy daycare four years. I mainly worked with little to medium size dogs, but would help out with the big dogs from time to time. I was a shift lead. This means, I have experience in giving oral medication and injectables. Such as insulin for diabetics pets. Not only dogs, but cats as well! As well as making daycare/boarding groups based on age temperament and size. I’m well-versed in dog behavior. Knowing the difference between play and fight is important! At the doggy daycare I worked with a range different age of pets and breeds. This helped me become more adaptable to all of my clients needs. Of course I did the basics! Including regular, and deep cleaning of the yards, the kennels and the grooming room! I continue working with animals today as a technician assistant! I have been working in veterinary medicine for over a year now! I currently work overnight three days a week at emergency vet hospital! Also, in my own home, I’ve always had animals! I enjoy working with high, intelligent dog breed such a German Shepherd! I’ve owned three. As you can tell, I have a strong passion for animals! I’m a College student living with my boyfriend, taking 16 credits this semester! I work three day a week as a technician assistant at an emergency hospital! Tuesday, Thursday-Sunday, I will be available 9am-4pm, to do walks and potty breaks. Thursday and Friday my schedule is open for overnight! I have a fenced in yard for my two dogs. The dogs are usually out every 2 hour for 15 to 20 minutes of outside time. And five minute potty breaks we needed. If weather permits, my German shepherd goes on 30 minute walk daily. For mental and physical stimulation! When there is bad weather days, puzzles and interactive toys are a must! Both of my dogs went with me when I worked at Hound Dog pet hotel West. So they know how to be socially around other peoples dogs.For my cats I have two family cats, and one of my own. Each cat litter is cleaned out twice a week minimum. For all of my animals water is available 24/7. I will treat your pet as I would, my own. By making a routine that keeps him happy and healthy and showing them as much love as possible!

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was 3, and caring for them has always come naturally to me! I’ve grown up with two Labs, a Lhasa Apso, and a Maltipoo, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve taken my own dogs on hour-long walks and runs, so I’m more than happy to keep up with high-energy pups who need to burn off some energy. I’ve also been trusted to care for dogs on my own for entire weekends while their owners were out of town, including keeping up with their routines, exercise, feeding, and giving them plenty of attention. I’m extremely active, responsible, and comfortable handling dogs independently. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own and want every walk to be something they genuinely look forward to! Since I work fully remotely, I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my day. Monday through Thursday, I’m available during my lunch break as well as anytime after 4:30 PM. On Fridays, I’m available between 1:00–4:00 PM, and I’m also available Saturday and Sunday mornings from 8:00–11:00 AM. I love having the flexibility to get outside during the day, so dog walking is a perfect fit for my routine! Your dog’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority! I’m a very caring, attentive, and responsible person, and I’ll treat every pup like they’re my own. During walks, I’ll make sure your dog is secure, comfortable, and getting plenty of positive attention while we’re out. I’m mindful of traffic, other dogs, hot weather, and anything else that could affect their safety. I’ll also follow your instructions closely and make sure I understand your dog’s routine, personality, and any specific needs before heading out. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pup is in good hands and getting some fun, loving attention while you’re away!

About: I have 10+ years of pet care/sitting experience and a lifetime of caring for dogs, I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and sizes. I currently care for my own aging dog, so I understand the patience, attention, and extra care senior pets may need. I’m also experienced with puppies and the energy, consistency, and supervision they require. I volunteer at my local Humane Society, which has given me even more experience caring for and understanding a wide variety of dogs. Above all, I treat every pet as an individual and provide the same loving, dependable care I’d want for my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for your pups! Whether they need walks, playtime, or some extra companionship, I’m happy to work around their needs. Let me know what you’re looking for, and we can work something out! I care for every pet according to their individual needs and routine. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and anything else your pet needs to feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll keep their routine as consistent as possible and give them plenty of love, attention, and companionship. I’m always happy to meet new furry friends and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away!

I am the ones my friends, family and neighbors call to watch their loved ones, and i am always more than happy to! I am comfortable pet-sitting for any dog at any age (& i have a soft spot for the seniors!!). I am currently working full-time, but my role is hybrid so i am home some days during the week. My schedule is very flexible, and I am available most weeknights and weekends and can absolutely make time during the weekdays. Let’s connect! I live in a spacious apartment in Scottsdale with a roommate who is also a dog lover. I am tucked away in a safe & friendly neighborhood that is very dog-friendly, as people are always out walking their dogs!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for several years and truly treat animals like family. I’ve owned multiple dogs at once for about 4 years and cared for two cats for 3 years, so I understand the patience, consistency, and love pets need to feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with potty training, maintaining routines, and recognizing pet body language, especially with reactive or nervous dogs around people, animals, or bikes. I always prioritize safety on walks and in new environments. I’m comfortable handling vet visits calmly and responsibly, and I understand how important trust and communication are when caring for someone’s pet. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away. work a hybrid schedule (2 days working from home, 3 days in office), which gives me flexibility for pet care. On my work-from-home days, I’m available for mid-day walks in addition to morning and evening care. On office days, I can provide early morning walks, evening walks, and overnight care. I also have availability on weekends depending on my schedule. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment with a small private patio. There are several safe walking options nearby, including a park directly across the street for daily walks and outdoor time. A local dog park is also just a few blocks away and can be accessed by car if permitted by the owner. I do not have any pets or children in the home, which allows me to provide a calm and focused environment for your dog. I prioritize safety, consistent supervision, and following each pet’s routine exactly as instructed.

About: Hi! My name is Bridget, and I've owned and cared for cats for 25 years. I grew up with Devon Rexes, so I know all about energetic, play-centric breeds, but I also have loads of experience caring for shy kitties who need their space. No matter what your cat's personality is like, I'll make sure he or she knows they are king of the castle. I'm available to care for your pets at your home, and can do daily feedings. I work 9-5, but am also available for 2x/daily visits depending on location. The majority of my experience is with short-term care (<two weeks) but I am also able to provide long-term care. Please let me know of any questions or concerns - I would love to help pamper your pet while you're gone! I work 6-3, and can spend some of my work day at your home so your pet doesn’t get lonely. I’m also available for 2x/daily visits depending on location. The majority of my experience is with short-term care (<two weeks) but I am also able to provide long-term care. I always let pets come to me on their own time, and will never force cuddles or photos on an animal who isn’t enthusiastic. Your pet’s comfort is of the utmost importance for me - so if that means sitting in silence in the same room together, perfect - and if they prefer to go crazy chasing a toy, I’m ready to play!

Emma was exactly what I was looking for in a dog walker during the busy months this summer for my senior dog! I worked long hours twice a week and needed an extra hand making sure he was taken care of: walked midday, watered, diaper changed, etc. (He’s about 80lbs and 11 years old), and she helped with him for about 2 months and was GREAT! I cannot say enough amazing things about how easy it was to work with her! My pup and I recently moved across the country and will miss her services dearly! I would recommend her to any friends + family, personally. Thanks, Emma!🫶

FAQs for Dog Walking - Scottsdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Scottsdale on Rover is $21.4 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 6,864 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Scottsdale. 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 Scottsdale. 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 Scottsdale.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 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 Scottsdale. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
