About: I come from a family of dog lovers and have raised my cairn terrier since she was two months old and she’s now 12!! I’ve worked with big dogs, small dogs, old and young. I currently train my dog in emotional and psychiatric care as she is training to be a service animal. I am currently working a part-time job and do online school so don’t worry about me leaving your pets high and dry!! I have two pets of my own so I know how important attention is. I’m available whenever you need me I live in a dog friendly neighborhood where all the dogs (and dog owners) know each other. I have a large yard and live only a couple minutes away from a park. I can easily crate your pet if necessary and have a super shy dog that won’t bother yours at all. We have plenty of things to keep your pet entertained including a splash pad and plenty of toys

“Jontia was fantastic! She handled two big dogs even when one of them likes to stop (she is on a weight loss journey reluctantly) and the other is young and hyper. She’s also very kind and easy to talk to! I would highly recommend.”

When I care for your pet in your home, I’ll treat them like my own.

About: I’ve worked many professional jobs that have allowed me the opportunity to work with cats and dogs from all ranges of breeds and ages. I have my own dog as well as 5 household cats! I love the joy pets bring into our lives and I enjoy caring for them. I’m flexible with most schedules and can incorporate them into my schedule. As long as I know of any changes ahead of time, I will always try my best to meet your needs. I respect others’ homes with the upmost regard and strictly follow instructions given i.e., “walk dog, ensure they have clean water, feed kibble” etc. Any specifics can be discussed and mutually agreed upon.

About: I have extensive experience in caring for both cats and dogs. I have a rescue Bombay cat named Mojo, who unfortunately has FIC (Feline Idiopathic Cystitis). However, this has made me proficient in administering medication to animals and monitoring them closely! Additionally, I grew up with many Pit Bulls in my childhood home. This has given me the ability to handle larger animals effectively. I actively volunteer at local shelters in my free time as well. I aim to create safe yet homely environments to ensure optimal well-being for every furry friend under my care. I am currently on summer break from college, granting me open availability. With no constraints on my schedule, I can provide round-the-clock attention and care to furry companions. Whether it's early morning walks, midday playtime, or late-night cuddles, I am fully committed to catering to the individual needs and preferences of each animal under my care. I provide a fenced backyard for safe playtime and a separate room for restful sleep. With the presence of my friendly cat, Mojo, companionship and socialization are encouraged. Animals are free to roam, including my room if comfortable.

About: Throughout my life, I have been the go-to pet sitter for my neighbors, friends, and family. Whether it’s providing a high energy walk, managing feeding schedules, or simply offering a calm and comforting presence, I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine so they feel secure while you are away. My experience ranges from caring for playful puppies to providing the gentle attention required by senior dogs. I work from home full-time, ensuring your pet has constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of playtime. My own friendly dogs provide built-in company. I prioritize routines and close supervision. Without a fenced yard, all outdoor time is leashed. You will receive daily updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience raising and training a Cocker Spaniel, a Pitbull Terrier, and a Rottweiler from puppyhood into their senior years, my goal is to provide patient and dependable care tailored to your pet's unique personality. Whether they need playtime, walks, cuddles, or just a calm place to stay, they will always feel safe, loved, and cozy while in my care. I currently work full-time in Alexandria, VA, but I work remotely on Mondays and Wednesdays. I do have open availability on weekends, and I am available to board throughout the weekend into Monday. My care is tailored to the individual needs of every animal. My apartment complex is incredibly pet-friendly with a large area right outside my unit for long walks and playtime. We also have a grooming station in case your fur baby needs a little TLC before going home. As an active young adult and someone familiar with the challenges of the puppy years - I am also available to walk dogs as frequently as needed. I also have no problem administering medication or patiently supporting elderly or special needs animals.

About: I’ve taken care of several pets since I was young. I had several dogs and cats (sometimes at the same time!). I love walking and playing with dogs, I’ve trained my puppy. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I have also taken care of kittens and adult cats. I have litter trained kittens and played with them often. I currently work full time, but am more than happy to watch your fur baby on my days off! I have days off where I have no plans and would love to spend it with more dogs or with your cat! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies (dogs) of my own who are friendly and can keep your fur baby company. I am use to watching other people’s fur babies in a 24 hour care setting.

About: Hello there! My name is Romon, you can also call me Griz. I suppose my friends see me as the momma or papa bear of the group haha. Anyway I've been taking care of my friend's, family's, and of course personal 'furry best friends'. I have a background in personal training and fitness. Never really ran into a dog that didn't like or respect me at least after the first couple treats or games I was able to play with them. Recently lost two friends one moved away the other, Sasha; a poodle mix of 12 years, passed away I was luckily able to spend more time with her during 2020 before she had to go. Her memories are still with me and I know many are back to work and wish they could spend more time with their newest pups. We can work together to make sure they're, well taken care of, and I just wanted to help out and lessen the load of watching over these wonderful epitomes of joy and energy. I've walked, sitted, played with, slept besides, and even cleaned up after all sorts of dogs from puppyhood to very senior dogs, 10lbs to 100+lbs believe it or not, can't seem to get a break from them, which I don't mind! Lastly I hope to get to know your fuzzy yet amazing family members on a professional and even better, personal level. Feel free to message for any questions I pay very close attention to any special instructions. I've recently found great streams of income im able to maintain at home while working on my online degree Fortunately my major for the 3rd semester in a row is online only. My schedule is pretty open and flexible so I wanted to make the most of my situation and again the main thing is to help out new or out of practice pet owners. Im free at all hours of day and night outside of a select few evenings where I train clients to achieve their fitness goals. Mostly online so feel free to reach out and schedule with me if youd like recurring services. We'll make it work. Im a capable and loving pet owner that doesn't mind breaking a sweat. I would love to keep your fur baby busy AND happy whether its a small walk with portable water bowls, at home self made doggy puzzles to keep their minds sharp and busy, even if I am tired, for those longer sessions. I have access and experience to great doggy parks equipped with fencing and great walking areas, and lots of car space for those longer trips or incase of an emergency where I have to safely transfer your fluffy children quickly. I have a lot of experience to share and rely on too much to list here but go ahead and quiz me at Fanaticallymotivated email on google for those of you new or unsure of my services with the Rover service provider. I hope to work with you both and take care of any worries.

About: I have a genuine love and care for different animals. When time permits itself, I do want to open up a nonprofit for animals who have been abandoned. I care for all animals not just dogs and cats 💕 I currently work on an intermittent schedule, which causes me to travel at the last minute. Sometimes I am gone from a few weeks to a few months, with little to no notice. I care for everyone’s animals as if they were my very own. From puppies/kittens to senior animals. If your animal is in need of medication and special treatment, I am definitely able and capable of administering medication CPR, etc. I look forward to meeting my new furry friends. 🐶 🐈‍⬛ 🐦 🐖 I currently can take care of other pets after I get off work and on the weekends, I do however take my dog out several times a day for potty breaks and walks and give her treats when she does a good job I make sure that I clean up after them if they have accidents and I also make sure that they are on a leash at all times and I will feed. I feed the animals on a twice a day schedule however whatever the client likes to do I will honor that.

About: Im a DC based management consultant with a soft spot for “furry baes”! I’m an experienced pet owner looking to help out my neighbors. You can count on me to be affectionate, trustworthy, and professional. When I’m not working or pet sitting, you can find me at a gallery opening, a new restaurant, at the local movie house, or spending time with my cat Javier. I fostered a dog this summer, and although I loved her dearly, I found her a fantastic home and taught her a few tricks! I love animals of all kinds, and they love me back! Contact me to schedule a visit. I’d love to meet your furry family member! I was unfortunately laid off last year from my consulting career. But that’s ok! I now have more time to connect with nature, decompress, and nurture my inner animal lover! I believe the best sitters and walkers enter your home with good energy, as animals often recognize when a human is well intentioned. I know how to approach pets, and most importantly, wait for them to approach me.

I had a very last minute booking and Tamela and her daughter made time to walk Asher for me. She was very communicative and kind and I know Asher had a great walk from how calm he was when I returned from work. I would definitely recommend for dog walking services.

Cayla was the best! She was timely, professional, and so kind and loving to my Bodie. Bodie can have a lot of energy and be a puller on walks, but she was patient with him and made sure to take long walks to get all of his energy out. I will definitely continue to book with her in the future. Thanks Cayla!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Temple Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Temple Hills is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 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 15,608 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Temple Hills. 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 Temple Hills. 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 Temple Hills 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 Temple Hills. On Rover:

  • 85% 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.
