I highly recommend her as a dog walker. She is reliable, dependable, and always available when her calendar says she is. It gives me great peace of mind knowing my dog is in such caring and responsible hands. My dog is always happy and well cared for after every walk, and it’s clear she truly loves and understands animals. I trust her to always show up on time, handle my dog with care, and treat him like her own. I truly appreciate her consistency and the trust I can place in her to take great care of my dog.

About: I've taken care of animals my entire life, having had many throughout including dogs, cats, and more. I have cared for pets for neighbors, friends, and family for both short and long term periods. I love spending time with animals and always give lots of love! My schedule varies slightly due to part-time work, but I’m flexible and do my best to accommodate requests! I’m generally available for overnight care and have daytime availability that varies week to week. Feel free to message me, I’m happy to discuss scheduling! I care for pets in their own home or come for walks to keep them comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, maintain routines, and prioritize safety, cleanliness, and respect for your home. I also provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

I had a wonderful experience with Tiffany as my first time using Rover. She was very communicative and engaging, always clear in the directions and attentive to my concerns. I appreciated how she listened to my worries and anxiety about my dogs, making me feel welcome and truly comforted. Tiffany was very flexible and provided excellent care for my dogs, offering regular updates as needed, which really eased my mind. Since I recently moved to this area, she was also willing to recommend better veterinary options and other resources for their care. Overall, it was a fantastic first-time experience, and I am very thankful for Tiffany’s kindness and professionalism. I would definitely recommend her to others!

Jenny has been fantastic watching after my dog Sophie for the last couple of weeks while I was away. She really came through in a bind and added a last minute walk when a flight was cancelled and I had to leave earlier than expected. And she's gone above and beyond addressing some health problems Sophie has been experiencing. Daily updates and photos have put my mind at ease and it's clear Sophie trusts her and really enjoys her company. I would recommend Jenny to anyone and would absolutely call on her again when needed.

About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals and have been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards, fish, and other animals has given me a strong understanding of their unique needs, behaviors, and personalities. As an experienced pet sitter, I understand how important it is to provide pets with a safe, comfortable, and stress free environment while their owners are away. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, maintaining routines, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s individual needs and personality to ensure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for. I am currently in online college working towards a degree in environmental science. Pet sitting is a good way for me to stay focused on school while still be able to work. In addition to caring for pets, I take pride in being clean, organized, and reliable. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat your space with the utmost respect and ensure it is clean and tidy when you return.

About: I've taken care of dogs all my life, from a large collie, down to my current 15 lb chorkie. He's 17 years old and still a happy critter. I've volunteered with Angels of Assisi and Red Dog Farms. I have also offered temporary care to cats. My schedule is wide open at this time, so I am very flexible. Let me know when you need me and we can make it work. I'm not currently offering dog care in my home, but I am happy to bring your critter to the nearest dog park for some sun and fun.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a child, and I’ve always felt a deep connection with them and been able to easily read their energy. I tend to be a magnet for strays, injured animals, and pets that “don’t like anyone.” I have previous experience with administering medications, training, caring for special needs, and making homemade food and treats. I follow instructions meticulously, because I know it is important for your pets to have consistency while you are away. Pet care is my main job and first priority. I do grocery deliveries on the side but can set my own schedule. My boyfriend, Tommy, lives with me and also works for himself, so he is able to assist with pet care as well. I have a fenced back yard and live in a neighborhood that is safe for long walks. Whether in my home or yours, I will treat your pets and home with respect and love.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. What started as overnight visits for family friends, quickly grew into referrals and neighbors trusting me with their furry loved ones. Over the past 15 years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walks, administering medications, preparing special diets, and providing individualized care. Most importantly, I bring a fun, playful, and compassionate approach to every pet I meet. They deserve to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I grew up with 2 Labradors, and currently have a Labrador of my own. I also had 2 cats while I was in college. I currently work part-time as a real estate agent, which means I have plenty of time to give your pups the love, attention, and play they deserve. I am open during the weekday or on most weekends! In Your Home When I care for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their routine as close to normal as possible. Whether that’s mealtime, walks, medications, or cuddle time. I also give plenty of updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. In My Home If your pet is staying with me, they’ll be treated like family. I provide a safe, cozy space with lots of playtime, walks, and snuggles, along with any special food or care instructions you provide. I also have a fully vaccinated Labrador puppy who would love to have a friend to hangout with!

It’s always nerve-racking when you have to find a last-minute dog sitter. Especially hiring someone you don’t know and probably do not have time to meet them. Well I can say that I am so happy that I had Alexandra take care of my pup while I was away. She accepted the last-minute appointment and I was quite pleased with her service. She was professional and a great communicator. She always informed me when she was on her way to my home and sent plenty of pictures. I highly recommend her and I personally will be using her again when there is the need.

I highly recommend that you book Stephanie if you need help taking care of your dogs! She’s the best dog sitter we’ve found on here so far, and went above and beyond taking care of our dogs when we went out of town! So we have two big dogs that can be a lot of work to take care of, and we needed someone to take care of them on our trip. We booked with Stephanie, and she did an amazing job taking care of them. She constantly sent us multiple updates each day, and each update was extremely thorough and detailed. We constantly felt like we were in the loop, and we really appreciated her doing such a great job! So if you are looking for someone to help take care of your dogs, we highly recommend that you book with her!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Silver Lake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Silver Lake on Rover is $18.87 per walk (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 1,263 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Silver Lake. 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 Silver Lake. 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 Silver Lake.

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 Silver Lake. On Rover:

  • 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
