“Aivy is always so good with my baby . She has a very calm and relaxing demeanor which helps Athena. I love all the pictures and updates I get while she is there. I highly recommend Aivy!”

“Sarah is truly great! Upon meeting her, the dog instantly took a liking to her (and the cat did not take off under the bed). She quickly jumped in and has been a blessing as she comes in and gives the dog a potty break and a chance to stretch her legs/burn off some energy. My puppy is a giant breed so her playful mess can be "a lot." Her photos of their walk and the time she takes to love on the cat are a bright spot in my work day. And best of all, I don't worry about my girls while I'm away.”


About: Since I’ve had a lab from puppy to sending him off puppy heaven 😭 I am well experienced with taking care of any dog in all stages of life. Now I help with friends and family’s puppies when needed. I am currently working remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup! As an active person, walks are always more enjoyable with a companion. Understanding every dog is handled differently, I can accommodate to what your routine is! Please don’t hesitate to let me know what your pup's feeding schedule, potty habits, or any specific rules you follow at home are so I can keep their day as normal as possible.
“Daniela is the best, she made sure my fur baby was safe, comfortable, and loved while I was away. Don’t hesitate to book her she does a great job and will go as far as bringing an ice cream for the pup, I hope we all have a great experience with her!”


“Kyra has been the best walker for our dog! She’s always prompt and on time, communicates well, and leaves our dog nice and tired after her walks. I appreciate you Kyra! Highly recommend.”

“Kathleen has been an incredible help with my energetic seven-month-old labradoodle. Her patience, consistency, and supportive approach have made a noticeable difference in his behavior. I’m especially impressed with how she’s been training him on proper walking etiquette—he’s made great progress under her guidance. I highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable dog walker.”

“Denise was amazing! She was able to accommodate a last-minute request on a holiday weekend to check in on my dog while I was out of town and take her on walks. She quickly set up a meet and greet beforehand so she could meet my dog, learn exactly what was needed, and get familiar with the routine. She communicated with me throughout my trip by sending photos and updates to let me know how everything was going. She even alerted me after noticing that someone else (besides her) might’ve been in my home between walks, which I REALLY appreciated. My dog clearly adored her and responded very well to her care. I’d trust Denise with her again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”

About: I am the designated dog sitter amongst my friends. I have taken care of my brother's dog for a month, a friend's dog for 2 months, and many times more with 8 years of dog sitting experiences. Since I do not have a dog of my own, I treat all the dogs I take care of as my own. This means they will be well fed, exercised, and bathed in joy :) I work a hybrid schedule so this creates flexibility on my end to watch you pet for the whole day when I work from home. I am an active person so I try to go for a 20 minute walk everyday and by providing pet care, this creates a win win situation for me and the pet! On weekends, I enjoy going for a run, if your pet is active, I can take the dog out for a jog too. I have a fenced yard and live in a pet friendly neighborhood with easy access to trail. Pets are allowed on the couch for comfort.
About: My family has worked with rescue groups since I was little, so taking care of dogs and cats is second-nature to me! Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets for years and I have two of my own dogs that are my fur-babies and get only the best love and attention. I will treat your pets as I would treat my own! I am home full-time and my husband works from home, so there will always be someone here with the dogs. I'm available for boarding on weekends and weekdays as needed. I can check on your pets at your house and take them on regular walks. I have a fenced yard and doggy door for easy access to the backyard, if your pet can't decide on in or out. I have two friendly dogs to play with and can crate your pet if they would be more comfortable in their own space.
“My saving grace!!! She was available last minute and a complete angel with my scared pup! Thank you for being flexible and so loving and patient with my dogs!! Thank you, thank you!!!!”

About: From furry babies to senior care, I have worked with all types of pets. I am very adaptable to any specific needs your pet may have. You let me know and I can make it happen! Im reliable and dependable, always being on time. Daily, weekly or whatever your needs may be..its my pleasure to accommodate your schedule. Im flexible to work with you on whatever your pet may need. With the convenience of coming to you, your pet is always happy and comfortable in their own environment. From daily visits to house sitting, your pet is always taken care of.
About: What sets me apart is my deep love and dedication to dogs of all ages! With 5 years of experience, I’ve gained a lot of hands-on knowledge in caring for dogs, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I’m not just about feeding and walking—I'm all about making dogs feel at home, comfortable, and happy. I’ve also got a knack for puppy training, whether it’s basic obedience or fun tricks, and I’m experienced in senior dog care, making sure they get the extra love and attention they deserve. Your pup will feel like they’re on a mini vacation with me! Working remotely gives me the flexibility to integrate pet care seamlessly into my daily routine. I can provide consistent attention, whether it's frequent potty breaks, playtime, or just giving cuddles during work breaks. My schedule allows me to be present for walks, meals, and even some training sessions, ensuring your pet gets all the care they need without being rushed. Plus, with no office to go to, your dog has me all day to make them feel safe, loved, and entertained. For drop-ins and walks, I focus on providing personalized care in your pet's own home, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. During drop-ins, I check in on your pet, provide food, fresh water, playtime, and any necessary potty breaks. If I’m walking your dog, I make sure to keep it fun, safe, and suited to their energy level—whether it's a brisk walk or a leisurely stroll. I always prioritize your pet’s routine, safety, and happiness, making sure they feel well cared for even when you're not around.

Angelica is absolutely amazing! This wasn’t my first time booking with her, and she has been wonderful every time. She came to check on Oakley right after she had a small procedure and stayed with her to make sure she was comfortable, which meant so much to me. She also came through for me on a last-minute request without hesitation. She’s so sweet, reliable, and truly cares. I always feel at ease knowing Oakley is with her. I highly recommend her!

Alexis is so sweet and really takes time and care with your animals. She is very detailed and always provides great updates. Knowing that my dog is well looked after when i'm not home gives me peace of mind. I love having Alexis as my dog walker and my dog loves her too!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in The Colony on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 7,922 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across The Colony. 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 The Colony. 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 The Colony.
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 The Colony. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 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.
