About: I have over 12 years of experience in dog care, with a strong background in grooming, vet assisting, training, and behavioral work. I’ve completed educational courses through colleges and attended numerous seminars and certification classes to deepen my knowledge. This hands-on experience, combined with formal training, has allowed me to work effectively with dogs of all breeds and temperaments, ensuring they receive the best care and attention. Whether it's grooming, behavior modification, or general wellness, I am dedicated to providing top-quality care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. Pet care is truly the core of my daily routine. My day begins with feeding routines, followed by cleaning my dog training room and conducting morning training sessions or walks. The rest of the day is dedicated to various aspects of animal care, including grooming, training, playtime, feeding, meal prep, and administering medications when needed. I do it all to ensure the well-being of every pet I care for. On weekends, I’m usually at a dog sport trial or competition, or enjoying outdoor activities like hiking and swimming with my pets, or simply relaxing and bonding with them. Pet care is not just a job for me; it's my passion and lifestyle. I provide exceptional care for dogs, whether in my own home or a client’s, by combining my animal medical experience, grooming skills, training expertise, and dog behaviorist background. With my experience in training and behavior modification, I can address a wide range of behavioral issues, ensuring dogs are well-mannered and comfortable in their environment. I am well-versed in administering medications and handling medical needs, ensuring each dog’s health is closely monitored. My grooming experience allows me to maintain their coats, keeping them clean, comfortable, and healthy. Above all, I approach every pet with respect, recognizing their unique needs and preferences. I take pride in being responsible and reliable, offering a safe and loving environment while upholding the highest standards of care.

About: Hi! I’m Jada, a lifelong animal lover who grew up surrounded by pets of all kinds. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I understand how important it is to have someone you trust with your furry family members. Whether it’s playtime, walks, meals, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I am fully remote, which allows me the flexibility to check in on pets during the day. Taking time for mid-day walks, check ins, or playtime is a perfect way to break up my workday while doing something I love. I know many pet owners can’t make it home during the day, so I’m happy to help keep their pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for until they return home. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I always aim to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I take time to understand each pet’s needs. I make sure their environment stays clean, safe, and comforting, and I treat their home with the same respect I’d want for my own. I also love sending photo or text updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of fur babies for weeks on end. I have two that I watch often and have watched them for weeks at times. I love animals and I love being active. So play time and walks with fur babies are one of my favorite things to do!! I’m a part time worker, working 3 days a week which leaves me plenty of time to walk your fur baby and take care of them when need be If doggies stay, I have plenty of back yard space for them to play, go potty, or even just to have some fresh air! And inside, there’s more than enough room for them to play around and take some naps

About: I have over 20 years experience as a pet sitter. I had two dogs named, Gizmo, breed - Shiatsu/Maltese mix, 7 pounds, 16 years old and Bullet, breed - Maltese/poodle mix 25 pounds 16 years old who've passed away displayed in my profile pictures. Your Pet's home away from home. Taking care of your babies is important, by providing a Pet friendly neighborhood with a park a block away and a fenced in backyard for your pets to enjoy. My experience in Pet care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I'm currently working from home full-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I'm availble weekdays and weekends from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm. I have a fenced in back yard and I'm an empty nester so can provide your fur baby with all the attention they need. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

We just hired Kristi as our dog walker, and she's been wonderful right from the start. Our dog is pretty shy with new people, but Kristi was patient and gentle, taking the time to let her warm up instead of rushing things. By the end of the first walk, our dog was already more comfortable with her. It's clear Kristi genuinely understands dog behavior and knows how to put a nervous pup at ease. Really glad we found her!

About: I stand out by prioritizing each dog’s comfort and well-being. I take the time to earn their trust and ensure every visit is handled with thorough, attentive care. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time, which allows me to reliably drop in and take care of your pet while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, refreshing water, letting them out for a potty break, or simply spending time giving them attention and companionship, I’m happy to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I understand how important it is for pets to maintain their routine, so I make it a priority to be dependable and attentive during every visit. I live in an apartment with limited space. My services will take place in your home while you’re away to ensure your fur baby feels comfortable!

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Growing up, I had dogs, cats, a pig, and a variety of small animals, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. For more than 20 years, I've provided pet and house sitting for friends and family, caring for everything from farm animals to energetic puppies, senior pets, and cats. I'm comfortable with pets who have special needs and have experience administering medications, including oral medications, allergy injections, and insulin shots. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, drop-in visits, or overnight in-home care, I can accommodate a variety of schedules while making sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care. When you're away, I'll treat your pets and your home with the same respect, patience, and love that I would my own. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. I work from home full time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable drop in visits, midday walks, and in home pet sitting throughout the week. Because I work remotely, I'm able to be flexible with visit times and can give your pets the attention and companionship they deserve. While I don't offer boarding, I'm happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel most secure. Your pet's safety and well being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to follow your care instructions closely. Whether it's administering medications (if needed), maintaining feeding schedules, reinforcing training, or simply providing a calm and reassuring presence, I strive to make your pet feel safe and cared for. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: With my family I’ve cared for a chihuahua terrier (Tiny) that we’ve had since I was 12 years old. She’s an old lady now, so she’s more into cuddling these days . I was a dog mom of an energetic, very playful, and very loving 5yr old pitlab (Nino) and cared for him up until his very last day (1/31/24). Noting my experience with both small & big dogs, varying levels of play, needs, and energy. Pet care fits into my daily routine as I used to have a dog, but he’s passed on and routine doesn’t just go away. There’s plenty of room in my days and in my heart for your fur babies. I used to live in the city, so my dog and I used to go on walks around the inner harbor often. We’re originally from NC so Nino loved being able to run around off leash and roll in the grass, so sometimes at we would go on night walks in the park just so he could be free.

I work in the animal field, and so it is a daily job for me not to mention taking care of my own personal animals My animals are my children, and I would treat others animals the same way. I believe in being respectful of people’s opinions and the ways that they take care of their animals.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Stanley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Stanley on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,215 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Stanley. 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 Stanley. 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 Stanley.

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 Stanley. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.
