I’ve trained my own dogs and understand how important it is to create a bond built on trust, comfort, and fun. When I’m with your pet, their happiness and well-being are my top priorities. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing fetch, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved—just like they would at home. I truly enjoy spending time outdoors, so active dogs who love walks or playtime will be right at home with me! My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your needs to make sure both you and your pet feel completely at ease. Your pet’s care and your peace of mind mean a lot to me. I’ll always communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure you know your furry friend is in good hands (: I am currently working in a restaurant as I finish school! I am available Monday-Wednesday anytime and Thursday until the evening. I do have some weekend availability but it varies so please feel free to reach out with any service you need! I am eager to provide the best care for your pet in your home environment!

About: I have been a dog lover all my life. I got my first dog, Lily in 2008, when I was about 8 years old. We grew up together and she was my best friend. She passed on in 2021 and now I live with no pets. I am eager to spend time with and care for some four-legged friends! I am responsible, hard working and go above and beyond to ensure you and your pet have the best experience! I have a part-time job and I own my own business, both of which I set my own hours. That said, I have availability throughout the morning, day and evening to care for your fur baby when in need! I am very flexible and want to make my clients comfortable every step of the way. I’ll do everything in my capacity to give your pet and you a smooth and stressless experience. My goal is that your pet is happy, and you can focus on your day/trip/work/etc. Whatever the reason for needing sitting, I will make sure the needs are not just met but exceeded, with cleanliness, communication, and quality care

About: I've been pet-sitting for different families for the past three years, and I also have experience caring for animals on a farm. I love being around animals and making sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I'm happy to work around each pet's needs. I make time for feeding, playtime, walks, and giving pets attention and care while their owners are away. I'm responsible, flexible, and enjoy making sure every pet feels comfortable and safe. I make sure every pet gets the care and attention they need, whether that means feeding them, playing with them, going on walks, or just spending time with them. I try to stick to their normal routine, so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I also make sure to follow any instructions the owners leave me and keep their space clean and safe.

About: Pets are our emotional sustenance and the most trusted friends. I have always been very fond of pets.I can take good care of them and protect them. Monday 7AM-12PM Tuesday 7AM-12PM Saturday after 4PM, and Sunday all day 🙌 🤪 Love with pets walk and running that more like exercise together!! I’m thrilled to offer a range of pet care services tailored to keep your furry friend happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. My services include daily dog walks, drop-in visits, overnight pet sitting, and playtime and exercise sessions. Each activity is personalized to suit your pet’s personality and routine, so whether they’re energetic pups or mellow seniors, I’ll ensure they receive the care they deserve. I usually leave sanitizer and wet wipes at the door and wash my pet and my own hands after walking the dog. Change your clothes and keep them clean when you leave the house and when you come home.

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and grew up always having them around. My family has a 10 year old dog that still lives with my parents, and since I don’t get to see him often, I’d love the chance to share that love and care with other doggies <3 I'm working full time on site but I get off early on Fridays and I can take care of your dog on the weekends :) live in a very dog friendly apartment community with plenty of trails and walking areas nearby for dogs to enjoy. The complex also provides poop bags throughout the property, making it super convenient for walks and cleanup.

Alison walked my dog on the days I worked for over a year, and I truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was always reliable, caring, and so accommodating with my odd hours and schedule changes. My dog is very shy and usually takes a while to trust new people, but she loved Alison from the moment they met, which meant so much to me. I never had to worry when she was with Alison because I knew she was in loving, trustworthy hands. I’m so grateful for the care she gave her and would highly recommend Alison to anyone!

He showed up on time the day of the scheduled walk and took care of Daisy. She seemed to really like him. I would definitely use him again and would recommend his services.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Strathmeade Springs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Strathmeade Springs is $33 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $39 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 15,588 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Strathmeade Springs. 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 Strathmeade Springs. 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 Strathmeade Springs 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 Strathmeade Springs. On Rover:

  • 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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.
