About: I have had animals my entire life and caring for them has always been a huge part of who I am. Over the years, I've cared for pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels-from high energy pups who need lots of playtime to older pets who prefer a slower pace and extra TLC. I'm well versed in basic pet first aid and always pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe capable hands. I know how important peace of mind is when you're away, and i take that responsibility seriously. At home, I have a very full (and very spoiled) house-one dog, two cats, and a guinea pig- so I'm used to managing different routines personalities and needs. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, or just someone to keep them company, I'll treat them like one of my own-with plenty of attention, care and extra belly rubs! This is currently my main focus so i have a completely open schedule to accommodate pet parents that may need me at all hours based on their needs I have access to several dog friendly parks and trails near my home as well as a crew cab truck so even the largest dogs can enjoy a ride. I also keep a dog seatbelt and pet friendly steps in the truck in case anyone needs a little extra hand getting in
“Tamara helped me all week with my French bulldog. She was very punctual and communicative. My frenchie is very sweet but he can be stubborn, Tamara was patient with him. I will book her again in the near future! Highly recommended.”
About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Having loved and handled animals since I was 8 years old, pet care is truly second nature to me. I’m incredibly flexible and dedicated to following your exact routine, whether that means high-energy playtime or long walks. I treat every dog as if they were my own and can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and open blocks of time to dedicate to your pups. I usually work nights but not everyday so just reach out! I have one adopted dog who's been with me for a year, and a cat I've had for six years. Because I am a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to maintain your pet's normal routine, keep a close eye on their environment, and ensure all doors, gates, and leashes are completely secure while you are away.
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and other pets my whole life, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I have two cats of my own. Ultimately, I’m a passionate animal lover and will treat your fur-baby with all the love and respect they deserve :) I’m currently doing an externship, so I’ll mainly be available Monday-Thursday after 6pm, Fridays, and weekends. I’m also happy to get a quick play session or walk in before my externship if needed! I treat every client's home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I follow your pet's routine closely with feeding, walks, litter care, and playtime while making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'm also mindful of keeping your home tidy and sending updates while you're away. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience so both pets and their owners feel at ease.
“Tifaney is the best dog walker I could ask for! I love that my dog Teddy gets some exercise in while I’m at work and I have peace of mind knowing that he is in great hands. Thanks Tifaney!”
About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do it’s who I am. I’ve had pets my entire life and can’t remember a time when I didn’t have a dog in my home. With years of hands on experience, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I work from home, which means I can give your dog the attention, playtime, and companionship they need throughout the day whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or 24-hour boarding. Your dog will be treated with the same love and care I give to my own always safe, always loved, and never alone. I’ve had animals my whole life and can’t recall a time I didn’t have a dog by my side. I currently work from home, which means I’m able to give your pet the love, attention, and companionship they deserve whether it’s for a walk, a visit, or 24/7 care while boarding. I live in the peaceful Walden Lake area with access to several beautiful walking trails perfect for getting fresh air and exercise. I also have one dog of my own, a 10-year-old Jack Russell mix who is my absolute baby. I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I give him because they deserve nothing less. I work from home, so your dog will never be left alone and can get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced-in yard, giving your dog safe and easy access to potty breaks, fresh air, and playtime as often as they need. Plus, I live in the beautiful Walden Lake area with access to scenic walking trails for daily adventures. Whether it’s for a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, your dog will be in a home full of care, comfort, and companionship just like they deserve.
“Rosemary has been an incredibly dependable and caring dog walker for my senior dog, Lola. She shows up on time, communicates clearly, and handles Lola’s aging needs with such patience and compassion. Her gentle bedside manner gives me real peace of mind, knowing Lola is in thoughtful and capable hands. I’m truly grateful for the care she provides and highly recommend her to anyone with an older or special-needs pup.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care, attention, and love I give to every pet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them as if they were my own while they’re in my care. I am dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I also believe in clear communication, so pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is happy and well cared for while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM. Since I work from my laptop, I have a flexible schedule and can provide care from your home, make drop-in visits, or spend quality time with your pets throughout the day. I enjoy staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to. My only regular commitments are church on Sunday mornings and ministry on Tuesday evenings, but outside of those times, I have a flexible schedule and can work with a variety of pet care needs. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any specific instructions provided. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel comfortable around me. Whether they enjoy being active, playing, going for walks, or simply relaxing and cuddling, I adjust my care to what makes them happiest. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I am my neighborhood’s designated pet watcher and I also own three big dogs of my own. I have experience with very energetic dogs as well as dogs with anxiety. My dog Bear has epilepsy so unfortunately, I am used to giving medication and taking care of his special needs. I am a college student at Columbia University working a part-time remote job this summer with the US government. My schedule is super flexible. I wanted to find another job that I would always enjoy. I am currently working a part-time remote job at a consulting firm this summer. I am a rising junior in college with a car and loads of time. I am willing to drive just about anywhere and make sure your beloved pets are safe while you are away. I am very reliable, prompt and professional.
“Leroy and Reina are absolutely amazing! They were so gentle and loving with my fur baby, they even bathed her while we were away. My Noel absolutely loves them, she made new best friends! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone - I will be booking them over and over again!”
About: Ever since I was a baby I have always grown up around animals. About four years ago I started watching my grandparents Rottweiler and stayed several nights and days taking him on walks, feeding him, and interacting with him by playing. About five years ago I got into fostering dogs ranging from puppies to adult, and sometimes having several at the same time. I have experience with puppies due to fostering and owning my own, and I have experience with adult dogs from fostering and owning my own. Besides having experience with just dogs I have experienced and taken care of dogs who have had previous surgeries, dogs who have cancer, and dogs who have to take several medications several times a day. I am currently working a full time job M-F from 9-6 and im off on the weekends. I would be able to help in the mornings and around lunch time everyday, and be able to help after work. Although I can not care for animals in my home due to complex regulations when I had dogs I had a fenced in yard and would go outside and interact with them. When I was at other clients homes if they didnt have a fenced in yard I would walk their dog or put them on a leash in their yard.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sydney
Alyssa was so great with my Mom’s mini golden doodle. She helped our family tremendously with morning and evening walks while my Mom recovered from a hospital stay. Our nervous pup quickly became comfortable with Alyssa and even improved her on leash behaviors throughout the week which is a lasting benefit to all of us. We highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Sydney on Rover is $10.7 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 6,542 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Sydney. 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 Sydney. 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 Sydney.

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 Sydney. 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.
