“Ronald walked my two dogs - one who small and anxious and the other who is medium sized and high energy. He came over to meet them beforehand and they warmed right up. Will definitely ask him to walk them again in the future!”

About: I am a ex-corporate zombie that has embraced my love of nature and animals. I have owned dogs my entire life and have volunteered at several rescues and training facilities. I am conscientious, loving and go above and beyond. I live in a great area with an abundance of amazing outdoor adventures or a lazy stroll down the walking paths. If your pooch is adventurous, let's go on a hike. A dog vacation wouldn't be complete without playing ball, hiking, trail running, I can accommodate any level of adventure. One-on-one service is my priority, as piece of mind should be yours. Cats: I love cats and offer cat house sitting as well as dog sitting! I'm to visit your kitty while you're away. I currently work from home and will accommodate what schedule your pet currently has. There will be times that I will need to leave, but it will be a short time out of the house. I always but collar/harness and leash on before exiting the house. Having a set of guidelines from the owner is helpful, every dog is different on what they enjoy on a walk.

About: I love animals more than people! Been petsitting all my life. First to offer my friends and neighbors to be Auntie to their little muffins. I owned a petsitting and dog training business in Portland for many years... had to move and change jobs but I still love having as many furfriends as possible! I consider myself very intuitive and always respect a pets boundaries. Listening is key and watching for body language. I will take the very best care of your home and pet!! Just like they were my own. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around what works best for you. Great at time management and super reliable. I prefer sitting at my clients homes and have extensive experience with housesitting alone. I have managed luxury homes and can offer extra things like plant watering, mail pickup, coordinating with staff, etc.

About: My first fur baby was Minnie (chi-weenie) gifted to me when I was 7 years old! Since then I grew up with her, my other fur baby Kobe who is a chihuahua mix, Lilly (Pitbull mix, and Chico (Pitbull mix.) My home was full of their love. I get to continue to share the love with all the doggy’s I have met so far. I am that friend everyone would come to for advice for their fur babies and to take care of. The last couple pictures are my precious babies that I would frequently care for in LA. I hope I am able to share these fun days with your fur baby! Whenever I get the chance to take a long walk I love including any doggy with me or just relaxing and watch bluey with my new fur pals. I’m very respectful of my surroundings and will always ask questions to know exactly of what you expect of me. Can’t wait to spend time with your pup!

“Christiana was absolutely wonderful during her time with Dory. I booked her for a walk and got no less than three pictures and updates during and after the walk. I have never felt more comfortable with my dog in the care of another person. If I could give more than a five star rating, I would have. I cannot wait to use her spectacular services again!”

About: Growing up with dogs of all types gave me a love for animals and taught me how to care for them properly. Their loyalty and playful nature showed me the importance of patience, love, and having fun while taking care of them. I’m self-employed, which gives me the flexibility to care for your dog with personalized attention, love, and consistency throughout the day. I ensure their needs are met, from meals and walks to playtime and companionship. I treat every pet in my care as part of my family. In my home, I provide fresh water, nutritious meals, daily walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention to keep them happy and healthy.When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and any special needs. I make sure their space stays clean and secure. My goal is always to ensure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away.

About: My love for pets began with caring for my friend's cat, which ultimately inspired me to adopt my own shelter cat. This experience deepened my appreciation for both cats and dogs and the joy they bring into our lives. I’m passionate about extending that joy to your pets, and I would be thrilled to offer them the same love and attention that brighten my own days. I am dedicated to making time for your pet. Whether it’s for a quick drop-in visit or a more extended play session, I’m eager to ensure your dog or cat receives the attention and care they deserve. I am dedicated to providing the highest level of care for your pets, ensuring they are safe, happy, and loved just as you would while you’re away for work or vacation. I will focus on their safety, engage them in play, and offer them the affection they deserve.

About: I have had my own pet for 10+ years and added a husky to the family 3 years ago (I think they are one of the final bosses of learning to care for doggies) I befriend doggies I care for once we become acquainted :) I work from home most days, active with exercise so walking is already a big and important part of my daily routine and am pretty flexible :) I follow directions thoroughly as if your fur baby was my own as I would want somebody to do the same for me. Their family being away is already hard enough so important to keep everything else routine!

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of pet you can think of. I started using Wag a few years ago and fell in love. Each has a specific personality and all are very loving. I have watched my dad’s boxer, my mom’s shitzu, wag customers’ dogs from lab to terrier, a few friends’ cats and most recently began caretaking my own kitten. I have worked with dogs and cats that need to take medication and crate training as well. I am excited to meet your furry friends! I make my own schedule and currently have Sunday, Monday and Tuesdays pretty open. I also can fit in a drop in or quick walk when I am not in meetings! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats while their owner was away. The most important thing to remember is a. Always refer to the owners manual they have given you! And b. Just give them love and keep their routine the same and you’re golden :)

About: I've been a pet owner/lover all of my life. I rescued and rehabilitated my orange tabby from the age of 4 weeks old, when we found him in the street close to death. I can bottle feed, give medication, and am always available for cuddles. I work from home and have a large back yard so I can walk/let your pups out all day long, and give them a great space to play and roam in. I work from home Monday-Friday, so I am available from dawn til dusk, and am also available on weekends to handle all of your pet care needs. We have a 2k sq ft home, a fenced backyard, and two cats. If I am boarding I am available to walk/feed your animals morning through night, and they will have a large yard to roam and be free in. In warmer and colder weather your animals will be inside, in either AC, or heating. Whatever the weather is feeling that day. I can walk/feed your animals in the morning, afternoon, and evening, and can take them to parks as needed. I have reliable transportation, and am a dutiful pet lover who is extremely attentive and in tune to animals.

Ronald was great with our dogs and even though our dogs tend to be a little nervous, they bonded with him immediately and had a great time. It’s clear Ronald has a lot of experience with dogs and was great at communicating with them. Would highly recommend!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Shellville Colony

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 9,153 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Shellville Colony. 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 Shellville Colony. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Shellville Colony 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 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 Shellville Colony. On Rover:

  • 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
