“We can’t say enough good things about Macie! Our dog absolutely adores her walks, and it’s clear she’s in the best hands. Macie is always reliable, caring, and goes the extra mile to make sure our fur baby is happy and well-exercised. We love getting updates and photos from their adventures-it gives us real peace of mind when we’re away. Highly recommend Macie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog walker!”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a kid, especially dogs of all breeds and cats. I am the go to for pet sitting by friends and family. Right now we have an 13 year old mini dachshund named Frankie; 3 year old tuxedo cat named Oreo; 2 year old mini pincher/jack Russel terrier named Nala; 2 year old long hair tabby; and 1 year old short haired tabby. There is plenty of time to take care of my fur babies and yours. I am at home daily with my daughter as her school learning coach. All of the doggos and cats sleep in the big bed with us and they are world travelers since we take them everywhere we can with us. We are a pet on furniture kind of house but will stick to your rules if you don’t allow it at home.

About: Previously worked for a doggy daycare. Many years of experience and knowledge with different breeds and dog behaviors. Loves all shapes and sized dogs! Also available for baths & nail trims. LOCATED IN TARTESSO - just a psa for all my tartesso neighbors, I’m in the area. & for everyone else it’s kind of a drive to get here but a nice little stop if you’re heading to LA! I work mornings during the weekdays so I’m limited to the times I can do drop ins and walks during the week. Can do it all on the weekends! Very accommodating and anything can be arranged. Very large fenced in backyard with a doggy door! I have a two year old Cane Corso mix who is the friendliest boy you’ll ever meet and would love a buddy to play with for the day. Dog isn’t friendly? No worries, we’ll equipped to keep my pup separate if needed.

“My experience with Elizabeth as a pet sitter was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs. She house sat for a full month while caring for our dog and cat. Our dog can be anxious around new people and requires medication three times a day, and Elizabeth handled everything with ease. Her background in veterinary care, calm presence, and compassionate approach gave me complete confidence while we were away for several weeks. I will absolutely be contacting Elizabeth again for our future pet care needs. Thanks again!”

About: I offer a calm, clean, and supervised home environment for boarding. My fully fenced backyard provides a safe space for potty breaks and outdoor play, and the covered screened patio gives pets a comfortable place to enjoy fresh air while staying protected from the weather and insects. I also have a quiet dining room that can be sectioned off for pets who need their own comfortable, low-stimulation area. I follow each pet’s normal feeding, exercise, medication, and care routine as closely as possible. My experience is also from fostering senior and foster dogs I work full time and my available days do change at times. I would love to talk to you and see if my schedule works with yours. On the weekends I typically stay home. I have a chihuahua mix. I do have a fenced in backyard. I also walk client's dogs around the neighborhood and nearby dog friendly parks.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over six years, and spending so much time around animals has taught me that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and way of communicating. My experience includes caring for dogs both in Colombia and in the U.S., as well as cats, so I’m comfortable with different temperaments and daily care needs. I’m patient, dependable, and always focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, so I treat every pet with the same kindness, respect, and attention I would expect for my own. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, going on walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care every visit. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they receive the care and attention they need. I provide attentive, reliable care in the client’s home to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any special care needs such as medications or senior support. I focus on creating a calm and safe environment while owners are away, making sure pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for. I also keep owners updated as needed so they have peace of mind during every visit.

About: I have worked as a kennel tech for dog daycare and took care of multiple dogs with different personalities. I’ve also pet sat cats and dogs for family friends. I typically work 4-5 days a week and work to integrate your pet needs into my schedule so that they’re taken care of while you’re away At a clients home I like to go over any safety precautions and routines so I can stick to what your pet is familiar with while I’m there.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Throughout my life I’ve cared for dogs, cats, fish, and even a frog, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I also worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility in Alaska (The Hound Lounge) for almost 2.5 years, where I handled feeding, water, medications, enrichment, photos for owners, and making sure every pup had plenty of playtime, comfort, and attention. I currently have two dogs of my own, one of which has IVDD and I care for from giving medication to expressing her bladder and colon and the other of which I walk daily. I’ve worked with pups of all sizes — from tiny Yorkies to giant St. Bernards. If you’re looking for someone confident, reliable, and comfortable with all dogs (and happy to care for cats, too!), I’ve got you covered. I currently am a stay at home dog mom and am caring for my dog who has IVDD and is paralyzed in her back legs. Because of that, I’m most available for check-ins or daily walks, along with occasional overnight care when I have advance notice. This helps me plan ahead and make sure I can give your pets my full attention. As I build my client base, my goal is to transition to full-time pet care and open up even more flexible availability for all of my clients. I always ask pet parents to leave detailed instructions on how they’d like their furry friends cared for while they’re away. This can include anything from walk lengths, feeding amounts, and medication schedules to whether they need a leash in the backyard, are allowed to roam freely, or prefer a crate during the day or night. I also ask where they sleep—whether that’s in their own bed, on the couch, or cuddled up next to me (which I’m totally fine with!). I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely, and if no specific directions are provided, I will use my best judgment to ensure their pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.

About: I've been fostering puppies locally since 2022. All the effort and mess (let's be real) is worth it for puppy breath and dog snuggles. I prioritize socialization and I can reinforce basic skills. We have lots of toys and play outside too. I stay at home so I have lots of time to provide care and attention. I am not away from the house for more than an hour or so, for any dogs that need close attention. I have a fenced back yard and a dedicated room inside the home. I have a pen, a large crate as well as a medium crate.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. Animals are my passion. I grew up with golden retrievers and currently have an almost 6 year old goldendoodle and a 16 year old cat, who recently passed. They mean the world to me. I’m a stay at home mom with plenty of time on my hands and I love being around animals. They are such sweet seratonin boosts! My goldendoodle is currently 5 year old and she is currently on a schedule that works great for the two of us. She sleeps through the night until wake up time which is 7am. Then we go out to our fenced backyard to potty and it’s breakfast time. We do 15 minutes of training then a walk and typically a long snooze til lunch. Then repeat til dinner and bed. Our cat is basically a lounge lizard. He is free fed and an indoor cat. He’s been the easiest boy and loves his pup sister MOST of the time. 😉

About: I have taken care of dogs for years. I believe they are apart of your family and are your children. Last year I watched about 15 dogs at one time back to back for the holidays! They all slept in my bed. I have had dogs in every size from big black labs to small chihuahua. I have watched several dogs that have had to have medication. I have taken care of a pup and put 4 drops in each eye 3 times a day.I have taken care of a sweet pup that was blind so I had to clap for it to get its way around. I absolutely love animals and showing them that they matter. I stay at home with my two children that also love animals so my schedule is always open. I am very flexible for your convenience. If I am away from my home it's mainly in the evenings or to take my kids to appts which varies. I have a fenced-in backyard on Travis AFB that looks out to the hills and trains along with several dog parks around me. I also have a big garage where if it rains they can be played within a big open space as in fetch or tug of war!! I love to send so many pictures and videos to the dog mommy and daddy also, so you won't have to worry about how they are doing! I have two children aged 3 & 1 that adore dogs and are great with them. Our little 8 lb Shih Tzu puppy will also be around, she sleeps in a play yard and is very well with other dogs. My husband also lives in the household but is gone during the day. We love to go on walks and runs every day!!! We LOVE the outdoors.

About: I grew up with dogs as far back as I can remember. Many family members had dogs and cats as well, so I am extremely comfortable around pets and absolutely love being around them. I understand they can feel like our children and we love and care for them in the same way. I have been pet sitting at homes for the past two years and love it! My career for most of my life has been a Human Resources professional, so I bring the love and care for your pets, paired with professionalism and reliability to you! I've always been a very clean and organized person, so your home would be well taken care of. You will not have to worry or doubt any specific instructions for care or routine, no matter how detailed or rigorous you feel it may be. I am highly respectful and understanding about anything you prefer for your pet's care while you are away. You can count on me to care for your animal as you would with all the love and attention they may need. I enjoy going for walks or staying in and playing around if they feel playful. If they need their space own space, of course they shall have what their little hearts desire. I was recently part-time as a nanny and household manager for a family. My current job is working in the Mortgage Department at Eglin Federal Credit Union. MY AVAILABILITY: I am available all day Saturdays and Sundays. I am free for drop-ins after 5pm, Monday - Friday. I always ask the owner what specific routine or activities they have for their pet and follow that. In addition, of course, I love to play with pets if they have toys they use or just like to run around in a game of chase. I will talk to your pet and make them feel okay in your absence and give them the attention they need.

About: As a dog owner for the past 20 years I know the stress of worrying about your pets when you can't take them with you. I want to take some of that stress and worry away by providing a fun loving place for your pets to stay. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for the past 15 years. As a stay at home mom your pets will get a lot of love and attention. I also have experience with taking care of dogs with special needs. Rest assured your pets will be well loved and cared for while you are away. I currently work for myself from home, so I have plenty of availability and flexibility. Also, my two teens are usually home in the afternoons and on the weekends so there’s always somebody here with the animals. . I have two beagles that are super chill and super friendly. I also have a huge yard on a corner cul-de-sac that’s completely fenced in so there’s plenty of room for them to run around in the backyard as well as take daily walks.

About: Hey there! I’m LeeAnn 🙃 I’m here to help with your cutest, cuddly kitty and sweetest pupper needs! Whether I’m popping in for potty breaks, a quick stroll or making sure Whiskers can’t see there’s an empty spot in the food bowl (Cat parents, am I right?) Honestly I’m looking for something that allows the ability to create my own “flexible” schedule and be more present for my kiddos..the less furrier ones, although they act like wild animals! 🤪 I follow the instructions of the owners requests! In the summertime I am very mindful of the heat* I take a lot of shorter walks for the safety of myself and the dog - I want them to get their energy out but also don’t want the hot pavement burning their paws and/or a heat stroke for the animal nor myself. A lot of inside play consist of toy play! But again, I’m always going to be mindful of owner requests/demands

FAQs for Dog Walking - Shalimar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Shalimar is $20 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $20 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 892 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Shalimar. 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 Shalimar. 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 Shalimar 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 Shalimar. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
