Kayla made my first experience using Rover great! She made me feel comfortable during our meet & greet the day before services. She was communicative and included plenty of pictures to let me know how things were going. Overall I would definitely book services with her again!

About: I currently have a dog and have had both dogs and cats my whole life. I love walking and animals so I figured this would be great second job. I am willing to discuss any arrangement that works for you and both of our animals. I am currently working part time and have time to drop in for walks, water plants, etc. Evening shift is better for me . Weekends anytime. My schedule varies. If you work 3 to 11 weekdays I am a perfect fit. I will care for your pet in your home. If walks are needed that is fine. If just outside play.. that will be fine. I am flexible

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and other pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a Yorkshire Terrier, a Mini Goldendoodle, and a ferret, so caring for animals is part of my daily life. I have experience with basic training, administering medications, and understanding each pet’s unique needs. I personally trained my dog to become a service animal, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to build trust with animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention and care. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s routine and will do my best to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, walks, and daily routines to help pets feel secure and stress-free. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs while providing plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship. I respect both the pet’s environment and the owner’s home, ensuring everything is kept clean, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to provide reliable care and peace of mind while you’re away.

For the past four years, I've worked as a veterinary technician, giving me extensive experience caring for animals and ensuring they stay happy, healthy, and safe. My veterinary background allows me to confidently administer medications, recognize changes in behavior, and provide attentive care for pets with special needs. In addition to my clinical experience, I've been pet sitting for many of my veterinary clients over the past few years. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

I am able to care for your dog or cat in whichever way feels most comfortable for you, whether that is a puppy who needs training, walks, and crated time, or a senior cat that requires more frequent, attentive visits and a strict schedule of medication. Given my background, I am also happy to provide additional services such as baths, nail trimmings, and gland expressions when necessary.

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is the combination of genuine love for animals, reliability, and attention to each dog’s unique needs. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments, including those with special medical or behavioral needs. I go beyond basic pet care by offering extra services like daily walk routines, photo and video updates, and even basic training reinforcement when requested. I’m certified in pet first aid and CPR, which gives my clients peace of mind knowing their pets are in safe, capable hands. I’m known for being flexible, dependable, and calm in unexpected situations—qualities that help dogs feel secure and happy in my care. Whether it’s a quick check-in or an extended stay, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I work part-time and choose my days on and off, I work at Kidspeace as a mental health technician! I have a very flexible schedule to accommodate with yours! I take pride in providing reliable, compassionate care for pets both in my own home and in the homes of others. When caring for animals in my home, I ensure they have a clean, safe, and welcoming environment that mirrors the routine they’re used to—complete with regular feedings, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. When pet sitting in someone else’s home, I respect their space and closely follow all instructions regarding the pet’s care, including diet, medication, and behavior needs. I aim to maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress while keeping the home neat and secure. I also provide consistent updates, including photos and messages, to keep owners reassured while they’re away. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, love, and the highest level of care.

About: Hi! I’m Brooke, and I’m a lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines—from relaxed couch companions to active walkers who love to explore. I’m dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I pride myself on sending regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I intentionally structure my schedule to allow dedicated time for walks, drop-in visits, and consistent care without rushing. This flexibility allows me to be reliable, punctual, and fully present during each visit. I care for pets by following their established routines and prioritizing safety, comfort, and individual needs—whether I’m in your home for a drop-in visit or out on a walk. I carefully review all instructions related to feeding, walking routes, harnesses, training cues, and any special care needs. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get bathroom breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. I also check the home environment to ensure everything is secure and clean before I leave. For walks, I focus on safe leash handling, awareness of surroundings, and pacing the walk to your dog’s energy level and comfort. Communication is important to me, so I always provide updates after each visit or walk so you know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make every experience calm, consistent, and positive—for both you and your pet.

FAQs for Dog Walking - South Sterling

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 573 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across South Sterling. 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 South Sterling. 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 South Sterling.

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 South Sterling. On Rover:

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