About: Currently I work full-time from home so I can give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I have the ability to take the dog/dogs out for walks or potty breaks as often as necessary. With my family dog, I have over 9 years of direct experience caring for her during her healthy years and when she was sick. Currently, I have a 4 year old Goldendoodle who is my inseparable best friend. Both of my dogs mean everything to me, and I know how important dogs can be to a family. I'm a huge animal lover and have the biggest heart for dogs of all sizes. I am comfortable caring for any breed and any size. I have experience with Pitbulls, Huskies, Shepherds, and various small dog breeds. Your dog will feel at home and cared for while their loved one is away. I work full-time from home. My schedule is flexible around my meetings for the day. This allows me to spend time with your furry friend/s while you are away! I have experience with many kinds of breeds, ages, and size ranges. I love all! I know just how important pets are to a family. I promise I will care for them as if they were my own.

About: I will fully cater to your dogs needs, including diabetic and senior dogs-over 20 years of loving and doting on doggies! I’m able to solely focus on your dogs wants and needs. I have a nice sized deck for fresh air and sunbathing (once the weather warms up!). I don’t have pets of my own anymore so I really enjoy having new friends to bond with. I also enjoy the reassurance that I’m able to provide dog families knowing their furry friend is in good hands, while they focus on the reason their away from them in the first place. ❤️ I will do my very best to accommodate any routine that your pet is normally used to-and I always appreciate detailed instructions and tips that you’re willing to provide me. Your pets aren’t left alone during the day. At least one walk a day, more if weather permits- I try to always make the most of good weather in this area! Overall, I’m as active as the dog wants or needs to be.

“She completely exceeded every expectation. She was incredibly caring, attentive, and genuinely took the time to make sure my dog felt loved and comfortable. After the walk, she stayed and spent extra time with my dog simply because she cared. Then I walked into my kitchen after an exhausting day of work and discovered she had washed my dishes—something I never expected and certainly never asked her to do. That simple act of kindness spoke volumes about the kind of person she is. In a world where people often do only what’s required, she went far beyond that. She is kind, hardworking, thoughtful, and has an incredible work ethic. It’s so refreshing to see a young person with this level of integrity, compassion, and initiative. She is truly one of a kind, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She didn’t just care for my dog—she left me believing there are still genuinely exceptional people out there.”

About: Hi! My name is Mia F. My little family includes 1 small dog, 1 large dog, 1 very large dog, and 1 cat. Throughout my 31 years, my family has always had pets. I have been taking care of and loving animals my whole life. I have experience with dog sitting larger breeds (German Shepherds, Pitbulls, etc) as well as smaller breeds (Yorkies, Chihuahuas, etc). Having cared for 2 senior dogs and a cat when he was a baby, I have experience (and tips) for administering many types of medications in both dogs and cats. Also, I am dog CPR/First Aid certified, with training on pet drowning as well as poison training in pets. In addition to taking care of my fur family, I volunteer at Griffin Pond Animal Shelter. I have been so passionate about all types and sizes of animals since I can remember. I love being around animals because I think it's so amazing that each one has their own unique personality. Whether your pet wants to go for a run at the park, learn some tricks, get belly rubs, snack on treats, or sleep, my promise to you is that they will be cared for as if they were my own fur baby! Your pet will be safe, happy, full, and won't even realize you're away! I work very close to home, and I am able to leave if there is an emergency. I can come as early, late, or in the middle of the night if you need me to! I will dedicate all of my time and attention to care for your babies! No need to worry if you have to schedule last minute-you can count on me. Whatever you ask me to do to care for your pet, I will do. I go on runs, if your dog would like to join, or I will take them for a nice long walk. I will care for their needs however you would like to do because I have experience with every size and age of animals, even including giving medication. I have so much love to give to your fur babies!

“Another great visit by Lori. She is mindful of timing the arrival to the dogs schedule. As I have one older dog, she is careful to watch and see if his is up to the usual walk. If she gets through the walk early, she takes time to play with the dogs back at the house. We are grateful to have Lori as a dog sitter/walker.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for about 6 years now, all different breeds and sizes. My family, friends, neighbors, and bosses have hired me to take care of their own dogs for days at a time. This included walking, playing, feeding, taking to vet appointments and much for for their beloved dog. I am currently a junior at West Chester University, studying Finance. I will be free everyday in between classes, after classes, evenings and weekends. I have a very flexible schedule! I live in an apartment so I would not be allowed to have dogs stay for a long period of time. I do have my own reliable transportation so I can be anywhere where I am needed!

About: Peace of mind pet care! Hi there! I'm Noelle! I'm a 35 year old animal enthusiast. I have years of personal experience being a dog and cat guardian. I have also worked with animals in a retail setting and a shelter setting. I bring to the table knowledge of pet behavior, basic care, food, toys, treats, health and wellness products, accessories, and more (a little of everything). I believe all pets are family members and will treat them as though they were my own. I will try my best to accommodate any special needs or requests you may have. I'm always receptive to questions or concerns so feel free to ask! I'm trying to earn money to help support my furry family by spending some time with yours! I look forward to making some new fur friends! Please allow enough time before your furbaby is under my care for a Meet and Greet. I will not accept service requests without a proper meeting! I want to confirm your baby, my babies, and myself will be safe and comfortable during our interactions! Don't hesitate to ask me questions if your booking falls outside my normal availability. I will do my best to make your needs work with my schedule! I am Fully Insured and Bonded through BIC and a member of NAPPS since 2026! Currently trying to make this my main kibbles and bits! I take clients on all days of the week and am NOT an early riser! Afternoons and evenings are perfect! However, I'll consider any request and try to make it work! I am hypervigilant with my own furbabies and will be with yours as well! Potty time will always be supervised (if you have a fence) and a leash is a must for walks! I will stay by their side the whole visit!

About: My Roomate and I have been working with dogs our whole lives. We both work full time at doggy daycares as managers. I also have experienced in working with farm animals as well.

We have experience in bathing, nail trimming, administration of medication and supervising large play groups between 5 to 60 dogs by ourselves. Including dogs of all sizes and temperaments. We have 2 dogs and a cat of our own. We take pride in providing a sweet loving environment for every dog and making sure every dog receives the needs personalized to them. We would love to meet your fur babies and give them a fun time to enjoy their vacation just as much as you enjoy yours. We look forward to hearing from all of you. We are available for drop ins, walks and overnight boarding in our home from Friday nights to Tuesday mornings. During the time that your pet is with us we will be home with them 95% of the time to make sure they get the love and attention that they deserve. We give every dog 24/7 attention and activities that suit every dog based on their own needs. We supervise any group play with dogs to make sure of everyone’s safety.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Throop

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Throop is $14 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $20 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 325 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Throop. 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 Throop. 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 Throop 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 Throop. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
