“I’ve never met a more punctual person in my life. She was always on time every day. In all honesty, I don’t think anyone could do a better job walking and caring for our dog like Donna does. She’s the best by far and you will not be disappointed with her service.”
About: Ive had all sorts of pets since childhood i.e. cats dogs chicks bunnies. I have experience with puppies, both golden retriever pups and German shephard pups. I currently do not have any pets for the first time in my life and so I've decided to create an account to supplement my income as well as satisfy my desire to be around furry creatures. For the record, I do not work with reptiles. Furry creatures only :) I am reliable and will keep you updated as much as you'd like me to, with pictures and videos of your pets! Cats and dogs preferred but also have experience with bunnies. I'm currently working in a very flexible industry, so my schedule isn't very rigid, however I will sometimes need to leave the house for 6-8hours. I enjoy being outside with the pups in the evening, when I have the most time. I do not have the ability to care for pets in my home. I try and stick to the animals routine in their home, although sometimes they can be stubborn and not stick to their own routine. They will, once they trust and warm up to me, sometimes it takes a day or two :) I'm very patient and gentle and will show them all the love :)
“This was our first time using a dog walker for our pup, Addie. Annalise was right on time and was great with Addie. Annalise was very reponsive to my messages and took some great photos of Addie during their walk. Highly recommend and will definitely be using Annalise again in the future.”

I’m currently in between jobs so I will have all the time in the world to play with some puppers!!! I’m very mobile, so i’d be able to come on weekdays and weekends! I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

I also make sure they have a cozy space to rest and follow any special instructions such as medications or dietary needs. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. This may include feeding, walking, cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water, and giving attention and affection. I’m also mindful of home security, like locking up properly and bringing in mail if requested. My goal is always to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free until their owner returns.

“Michael was wonderful with my dog Shelby. He showed up on time each day, and was gentle and patient with her. (She was reluctant to go out sometimes). He communicated with me each day about how it went. Shelby acquainted herself quickly with Michael and started to look forward to her walks. I would highly recommend him. He's definitely a dog lover and is responsible and communicative. Thanks Mike!”

Angela was wonderful with Ro! ❤️ She was reliable, patient, communicative, and skilled in handling him during his walk. Ro is a sweet, playful dog who can become very excited when he sees other dogs, and Angela managed him calmly and confidently. Her communication was excellent, and she kept me informed throughout the walk. I truly appreciate the thoughtful care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, professional, communicative, and caring dog walker. Thank you, Angela, for taking such great care of Ro! 🐩🐾❤️🫶🏾

The average cost of Dog Walking in Timbuctoo is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $32 per walk.

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 Timbuctoo. 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 Timbuctoo after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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 Timbuctoo. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
