About: Hi! My name is Emily, and I'm a Registered Veterinary Technician with hands-on experience in animal care, I have my associates degree in Veterinary Technology. I've worked closely with dogs, cats and exotics of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, so I'm very comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra care. With my veterinary background, I have hands-on experience working with animals in both general practice and emergency situations, so I'm comfortable recognizing signs of illness, handling medical needs, and staying calm under pressure. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal like they're my own. Whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I'm reliable, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I'm also happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I'd describe my personality as Friendly, dependable, detail-oriented. I’m always available to care for your pets and have a very flexible schedule with no restrictions. I’m happy to accommodate your needs and make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for! I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether in the client’s home or my own. In the client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications, while also keeping their home clean and secure. In my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment where pets can relax, stick to their usual routine as much as possible, and receive plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection. In both settings, I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication with regular updates for peace of mind.
About: Hi! My name is Kaylee and I would love to spend time with your furry babies! Message me with questions about days I have open availability in the mornings! Growing up taking care of dogs made me realize how special the bond can be between you and any furry friend. I have experience in my daily profession working as a dog bather and in a doggy daycare! I love making friends with all of them and making sure they're all taken care of like family. During your dogs adventure with me I'd like to make the experience the most comfortable and enjoyable for them as possible. Additional services such as nail trimming, trail hiking, adventures and training sessions can all be included as well! All pets must be completely up to date on rabies, bordetella and distemper vaccinations and documentation must be presented. The safety of your pet is my top priority! Full shot series proof required. I have a very friendly fur baby of my own so even on days that I work I find it essential to make sure he gets plenty of exercise for the day. We love to hike, go swimming, go to the dog park and run around together, and we both would enjoy having some extra company along the way! At home, we have tons of cuddles and love to give. We go on walks often and many other adventures. For example, the dog park, hikes, bike rides, runs (etc). I can give baths too but am still saving up for some supplies needed to properly bathe long coated dogs (we’d have to do some sun bathing to get dry!) I regular clip nails, so if you’re interested we can include that too. In terms of dog sitting, I’d love to include all of the same activities, with any accommodations needed!
About: I have had dogs my entire life. At the moment, we have two rescues and a golden doodle. Since our golden doodle will be 13 this year, I am especially good with senior pets. I definitely still love puppies and all their craziness as we have had a few growing up!! Since I am currently home from college, my schedule is very open! I am pretty much available most days and times. I will be able to take majority of the day before bookings as I know emergencies happen and your fur baby might need a visit before you are able to get home. My dogs are my whole world and yours will be too. I treat every dog with kindness, understanding, and respect no matter what. I am very good at following directions when caring for your pet in your home and am not afraid to ask questions if I am unsure of something.
“Joe and Laurie are awesome! They take such great care of our dogs and send lots of photos to let us know how happy the dogs are! Thank you, Joe and Laurie!”
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Recently, I've looked after British Cocker Spaniels and Rottweilers, and I'm currently a proud cat parent to two wonderful felines who require daily medication—so I'm fully comfortable administering oral meds with care and patience. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether it's feeding them, changing litter, going for walks, or simply offering companionship. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I am currently not working. I can drop in anytime for walks, providing food and medication and spend time with them. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, whether it’s morning walks, mealtime, play sessions, or quiet companionship. I build in time for check-ins, grooming, and any special needs like medication. I also make space in my week for updates to pet parents like photos, notes, or quick messages, so they feel connected and reassured. Caring for pets isn’t just something I fit in; it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize comfort, safety, and consistency. I make sure their routine stays familiar in terms of meals, walks, playtime, and rest all happen on schedule. In my home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly space with toys, soft bedding, and plenty of room to explore or relax. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual environment and habits. I also keep the home tidy, respect boundaries, and send regular updates so owners feel confident and connected. My goal is to make every pet feel secure, loved, and well cared for, just like family.

“Daniel was amazing! We needed someone who has a lot of experience and could confidently care for multiple 40-50 lb dogs with various medical and anxiety/behavioral needs. Daniel was impressive! He took a good amount of time to meet with us and learn our dogs habits, personalities and quirks, and the commands we use with them. He had no issues walking our 3 dogs together, acknowledging them and giving them treats along the way. The dogs were very comfortable with Daniel, happy with thier walk, and responded well to his commands. My rescue dog who is wary of strangers even gave him kisses after their walk. On the 2nd walk, the dogs got very barky and excited when Daniel arrived and he was calm and confident and got them settled down and leashed with ease. We've had many pet sitters over the years and Daniel shines above all of them. His communication skills are excellent, he actively listens, very observant, understands the dogs, and overall seems like a natural who "knows what to do" to provide excellent care of our pets.”
“Callie fed Chloe and took her for a walk while we were away for the day. Aside from loving and taking good care of our dog, which was evident from the many photos that were taken, Callie has great customer service skills. She’s friendly, a super communicator, and very dependable. I definitely recommend Callie to all.”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in The Woods is $20

Bethany did a great job taking care of my mom’s fur babies! She was able to assist us on a very short when I was in California for work. Smoke and Bandit are senior dogs and require some breaks when walking and Bethany did a great job with that and keeping me updated while I was out of town. She sent plenty of pictures and updates when she walked them. She is very easy to communicate and work with and definitely recommend her for your fur babies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in The Woods on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 2,657 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across The Woods. 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 Woods. 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 Woods.
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 Woods. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
