“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 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 in grad school and doing an externship, so I’ll mainly be available Monday-Thursday after 4pm, Fridays and weekends. However, feel free to reach out because my schedule can vary. 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.
“Thank you Jennifer! I know we had a glitch with the door security and I'm sorry about that but, everything else went well. Thank you for the daily updates and pictures as well. I hope you enjoyed Tyrion as much as he enjoyed seeing you everyday. We will definitely call you in the future.”


About: Your animal will receive plenty of affection, treats, and playtime. I have spent about five years babysitting and caring for animals. Because my neighbors foster cats frequently, I have handled many kittens and bottle feeding, and I have provided proper care for any animals found on the streets, ensuring they receive the necessary treatments and medications. I enjoy giving animals the attention they deserve, playing with them, and learning their needs; I believe an open mind is essential for understanding what they truly want. I recognize that every animal is different, so I apply my best effort to accommodate any animal’s needs. I can assure you that your furry companion will enjoy time with me. Your furry friend will have a blast with me. I’m currently a swim instructor at aquatics for you. I teach babies the basic survival skills of how to swim and float. I’m also attending HCC right now to pursue a degree in diagnostic sonographer. I just graduated from Riverview high school where I played volleyball for six years club and school season. I love going outdoors playing soccer and volleyball. I also enjoy listening to music and dancing. I believe life is way too short, so you have to soak in every moment that you can. I’ll make sure that every animal dog or cat is completely put in a safe and welcoming environment. I think every animal just wants affection and love and they definitely will receive that with me. Any expectations or rules that are given to me will be followed to the T. there are no excuses for any sort of disrespectful or bad behavior on my end. I’ll make sure to provide any service that you would like.

About: Hello all! I currently work from home and have all the time to pay close attention to the care of your beloved family member. I grew up in a show dog home and to this day I still help my family at dog shows around the state. I used to be a veterinary technician so I can care for pets who are on a strict routine. I play very close attention to routines, and give a bunch of pets and love. From puppies to seniors or docile to rambunctious. I can handle them all. Your beloved family member will be in good hands with me. I also know how to do a bit of grooming. Say if you needed bathing, brushing, nail trimming, ear cleaning or all of the above. I would love to care for your lovely family member. Thank you so very much for your consideration. I work full time remote from the comfort of my own home. I am very thankful to be able to have as much time as I can with my own personal pets and those of others. Animals are my passion. I studied animal science/zoology in the university of Florida and was a veterinary technician for 5 years. I strive to give every animal the amount of love I give my own.
About: Hi, I'm Shontavia! I have an immense love for animals and years of experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and species. Whether your furry friend needs a long walk or requires specialized attention, I treat every animal as if they were my own. As a dedicated dog sitter, I provide comprehensive care tailored to your dog's specific routine. I handle daily feedings, energetic playtime, safe neighborhood walks, and refreshing baths to ensure your pup stays happy, clean, and healthy while you are away. I understand the unique environments and specific diets these specialized pets need to thrive.I look forward to giving your pets the high-quality love, safety, and attention they deserve! Working from home with a flexible schedule makes pet sitting exceptionally easy to manage. I seamlessly blend animal care into my workday without disrupting my professional productivity. If you choose in-home boarding, safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. While I have my own beloved pets, they enjoy their own dedicated personal space. This allows me to maintain strict, secure boundaries, giving guest pets their own comfortable, stress-free zone to relax without any forced interactions. Whether I am caring for family members in my home or visiting yours, I treat every animal with the high-quality love, patience, and attentive care they deserve!
About: I’ve had dogs almost my entire life. Nothing makes me happier the meeting a new pup friend! I will treat your dog like it’s my dog. I am a recent retiree and have lots of availability. I have plenty of time to play with your pup and make their time with me special. I live in a great neighborhood with plenty of room. There is a small park just a short walk away that would be perfect for your pup to play and run.
About: I believe pet sitting is more than just stopping by for a visit. Every pet is cared for with patience, attention, and the same love I would give my own. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine and personality, send regular photo and text updates so you always know how they’re doing, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel right at home until you return. Pet care is a part of my daily routine, not just my work schedule. I plan my days around my clients’ visits to ensure every pet receives reliable, on-time care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, evening feedings, or overnight stays, I maintain a consistent schedule so pets can stick to their normal routine. Caring for animals is my full commitment, and I take pride in being dependable for both pets and their owners. For drop-in visits and dog walks, I focus on keeping each pet’s routine as consistent as possible. During every visit, I make sure they have fresh water, are fed according to your instructions if needed, receive plenty of attention and affection, and have the opportunity to go potty and get some exercise. Dog walks are tailored to your dog’s energy level and comfort, while drop-in visits include playtime, companionship, and any other care you’ve requested. I also provide photo and text updates after each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I've taken care for dogs since I was a child. My truly love for them is unvaluable. They are my angels on the earth. Love each activities with them. I am completely available on weekdays and weekends. I can receive your pets and give them all the attention required as the case may be. My patio area is long and fenced, it meets safety guidelines. I don't have my own pets. I provide your pet with the same guidelines as an owner.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was about 9 years old, and animals have truly been a lifelong passion of mine. I grew up on a ranch in Pennsylvania, where I gained hands-on experience with all kinds of farm animals as well as dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, and more exotic species. Growing up, I also helped rescue and care for animals until they were healthy and able to fend for themselves again. Today, animals are still a huge part of my everyday life. I have two 15-year-old long-haired Chihuahuas, a 130-pound Sulcata tortoise, and five Fennec foxes. I am also a USDA-licensed breeder of Fennec foxes, which has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for animals at every stage of life—from newborns requiring close attention and specialized care to senior pets who need a little extra patience and TLC. Because of my experience, I’m very comfortable around animals with different personalities, sizes, ages, and care requirements. I understand how important routines are and how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else’s care. I work full-time as a Realtor, but I’m also a full-time animal mom! Since having so many animals of my own makes traveling difficult, I often find myself caring for friends’ and family members’ pets instead—and I genuinely love it. I decided to join Rover because spending time with animals is something that truly brings me joy. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and needs time to warm up, a senior who prefers a slower pace, or simply happiest sticking to their normal routine, I’ll take the time to get to know them and make them feel comfortable and cared for. Your pets aren’t “just pets”—they’re family, and that’s exactly how I’ll treat them while they’re in my care. ❤️🐾 I make my own schedule and have a great deal of flexibility throughout the day. As a Realtor, I’m frequently driving throughout the area for work, which makes it easy for me to incorporate drop-in visits, walks, feedings, and other pet care into my daily routine. My schedule varies from day to day, so I can often accommodate mornings, afternoons, evenings, and last-minute requests. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine whenever possible! I provide drop-in care for many different types of animals and understand that every pet has their own routine and individual needs. I can assist with feeding, fresh water, walks and potty breaks, playtime, crate or enclosure cleaning, litter boxes, and other routine care. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats as well as reptiles, birds, small animals, senior pets, newborn animals, and many exotics. I have extensive hands-on animal experience and am a USDA-licensed exotic animal breeder. When caring for pets in a client’s home, safety is always my priority. I carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, keep doors, gates, crates and enclosures secure, and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable before I leave. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

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
About: I’ve taken care of many breeds and sizes of dogs. As a mom of two angel dogs, I know all the ins and outs of caring for pups. From playtime and walks, to administering medication and specialized feeding routines, I will care for your fur baby like they are my own. I work part time and am self employed, so I choose my own hours and I can accommodate any timing needs for pet care 24/7! I am very detail oriented and will follow your care instructions exactly as you want them. I can help with any pet care aspect you need.
About: My family and I have fostered dogs for years. That experience has taught me how to handle everything from nervous rescues to higher energy pups with patience and love. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, snuggles, or a calm routine, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for. My job is hybrid so I’m in office 2 days a week but my work is flexible so there’s always room for adjustments. I care for pets in their own homes to help them stay comfortable in their familiar environment. Animals that love to cuddle or play go hand in hand with my personality.
About: Over 25 years experience raising my own personal dogs and caring for my families dogs along the way. I enjoy giving dogs love and care, exercise & indoor/outdoor enrichment. Currently accepting small dogs excluding aggressive breeds unless they are puppies, for sitting, drop-ins & walking, weather permitting. I am CPR & First Aid certified. I am retired and available Mon. - Fri. excluding major holidays for sitting, walking & drop- ins. after a meet & greet. I love spending time with animals. I can walk your dog, drop-in to feed & provide water, medication if necessary or sit in your home for short periods. I can also brush your dog and provide enrichment during an extended stay.
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.

About: Having been raised by a father who was a veterinarian, I’ve had experience raising and caring for various types of animals. I believe our fur babies aren’t just pets, but are our children, family, guides and protectors I recently resigned from teaching and only have to care for my kitty child Lyran, so I’m pretty free and available for most dates and times requested. Having a cat baby at my house, I would prefer to go to the clients house to care for their pets. I can make exceptions and keep a clients pet depending on the pet and requirements for care.

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.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Sydney is $11 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $11 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 6,545 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 Sydney. 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 Sydney 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 Sydney. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
