About: Dogs are part of the family! Being pet parents for over 10 years means we have a lot of experience taking great care of dogs and giving countless belly rubs and snuggles. We love all animals so much! Especially our 2 year old Beagle, Ollie and our 9 month old puppy, Sidney. They are the most loveable and playful boys 🥰 We’re currently available Monday-Friday for drop ins and dog walks from 8am-7pm. Please let us know if you need pet care outside of these hours and we’ll do our best to accommodate. We have a very large fenced in yard. We have a 2 year old male Beagle (neutered, very playful and friendly). Dogs will never be left unattended outside!
About: Lover of all dogs, I enjoy spending time with them as they provide so much happiness in my life! I've had a dog since I was 13 years old, and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their dogs in the past. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I structure my schedule to ensure I have dedicated time in the morning, midday, and evening for walks and playtime. I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so regular walks and engagement are something I already prioritize. I would love to walk your dog when you don't have time. I can make sure your dog spends quality time outside and stays active throughout the day. During the week, I can stay organized with scheduled exercise and quality time so your dog feels comfortable and cared for. I’m also flexible and can adjust my routine depending on your dogs energy level and needs, whether that means longer walks, extra playtime, or just more companionship.
“Jess was wonderful. We have an 11 year old stubborn dog and she was great with him. She gave in-depth details every time she gave updates. Would definitely recommend Jess.”

“Gabriella is absolutely amazing! She took such good care of our puppy at put my mind at ease (as this was the first time using a dog walker) by sending pictures of my little guy walking and playing! Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind, from my family dog to my friend’s dogs with special behavioral needs. My family and friends have relied on me to feed, walk, and give medication to their dogs and cats. I currently work part time at a dance studio for children that is mainly open during the evenings, allowing me to have a flexible schedule during the day for more walks and playtime. I can walk, feed, play with, and give medications to your fur baby to give them the extra love and attention they want during the day.
“Isabella and Mike are clearly dog lovers and our boy took to them easily. They were on time for their scheduled appointment and did a great job, making sure he got a nice long walk and a good drink of water. Very friendly and personable. Will definitely reach out to them again!”


About: I’ve had dogs in my life since day one! I grew up with four huskies throughout my lifetime, more recently a lab, and now I’m a cat mom. I love animals so much and feel strongly about loving and protecting them. I have experience caring for both young and older pets. I am also an active person and love to exercise myself and the dog! I work fully from home with occasional travel so I am always looking for ways to get outside and get some movement in. I am home most of the day/week besides the occasional errands and trip to the gym. Ample time for pet care and activities! When I am with your pet, they will be the number one priority! I will make sure they are safe, happy, and always fed/hydrated. Unlimited pets and good boy/girl at all times.

About: I have taken care of dogs whether that be overnight care or just going for walks around the neighborhood! I have a dog of my own she is a golden doodle! Taking care of pets blends easily into my everyday life since I’m organized, reliable, and love being around animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I enjoy making pets feel safe and cared for. I prioritize creating a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and any specific needs to make sure pets feel secure and stress-free. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every animal like my own, giving them plenty of attention, patience, and care. Whether during walks or drop-ins, I always aim to provide a calm and loving environment where pets can feel happy, safe, and at home.
“Carys was great with Harley! She always gave her long walks, was super kind, responsible, and easy to talk to. Communication was always great and I always felt comfortable knowing Harley was in good hands. You can tell she really cares about the dogs she works with. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: Hi! I’ve been dog sitting for about 7 years and have experience with pups as young as 4 months all the way up to senior dogs. I honestly love them all, but puppies are my favorite because of their energy, and I also love a good cuddle with an older dog. I’m comfortable with all breeds and personalities, and I always try to match whatever routine your dog is used to so they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. Whether that’s walks, trips to the dog park, or just hanging out at home, I’m happy to do it all. I can also administer medication if needed, and I know the cheese trick very well so giving pills is usually quick and stress-free. I recently moved to the area and am currently rebuilding my client base, so I’m very flexible and can often accommodate last-minute bookings. I’m a local college student who is home for the summer, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I plan my days around the pets I’m taking care of. On days I have work, I’m still able to stop by before and after, and on my off days I have even more availability for walks, visits, or overnight care. I always make sure to follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions you provide. I 100% respect the environment I’m in and the boundaries I’m given. I treat your home like it’s my own and always leave it exactly how I found it, with the exception of a toy or two left out from playtime! My goal is to keep your pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Victoria is the best!!! Look no further - you found a wonderful dog caregiver! She has walked our dog, Riley, many times: she is organized, receptive and has excellent communication skills. I feel so very comfortable when Riley is with her. She sends detailed updates and photos while also responding promptly. She is very flexible when scheduling which we truly appreciate! We look forward to having her again and HIGHLY recommend her!!!”

“Timothy is hands down the best dog walker Ollie has had. He takes him on actual walks, gives him so much care and attention, and Ollie absolutely loves him. He gets excited every time he hears Timothy is coming! The trust piece is huge for me, and I fully trust Timothy with Ollie. Highly recommend.”

About: As a first-grade teacher with years of experience caring for children, providing a safe, nurturing, and dependable environment comes naturally to me. I bring that same level of patience, attention, and care to every pet I look after. I have been the go to pet sitter for neighbors, friends, and family since I was in middle school! With two big dogs and three cats of my own, whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I’ll treat them like one of my own while you’re away. 🐾 I am currently working part time in the summer so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am available Monday/Tuesday after 4, and Wednesday-Sunday anytime! I can easily walk your dogs safely and crate them if needed! I can play with your pets securely in a backyard! I can also feed your pets when needed!

About: I have had 2 dogs growing up. One large German Shepherd and one small Cockapoo. I have also taken care of my family and friends dogs when on vacation, ranging from tiny Chihuahuas to medium Labs. I love dogs and love to take them on long walks I currently work part time so I have lots of time to go on walks. I am a big runner and have done half marathons. I love to run with dogs and take them out for miles. I can pick them up and take them around anywhere near the area. I know how to hold back a strong dog and keep them from going where they shouldn’t.

About: I have 4 years of experience as a veterinary technician and have pet sit for friends and family for many years. I am a cat lady at heart but of course I love dogs too! At home, we have 3 cats, a chinchilla, and a pittie :) Comfortable with all ages, sizes, breeds and giving medication if needed! I currently have relatively flexible availability as I am currently searching for a new full time job and looking to keep busy and make some supplemental income in the meantime. I am very passionate about pet care and want nothing more then for your pet to feel comfortable and safe in my presence. I will take the time to feel them out and make sure they get what they need and stay safe while of course respecting your home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Smithburg on Rover is $21.09 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 4,640 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Smithburg. 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 Smithburg. 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 Smithburg.

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 Smithburg. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
