About: I learnt the responsibilities of caring for dogs early on in my childhood. I have grew up with dogs since I was a baby, and have always had a deep love for animals. I took this passion and love of animals and wanted to pursue it as a career. I studied animal management at college where I gained 3 years work experience in a boarding kennel. I then wanted to expand my knowledge further and continued my studies at Hartpury University in Canine Training and Performance, where I graduated with a 2.1 (upper second-class honours). Through this time I have gained a lot of experience on caring for a wide range of animals. Including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds and even pigs! I volunteered at a pig rescue in Ireland where I learnt a lot about these spectacular animals, who are a lot like dogs! I've learnt to deal with animals of all kinds of temperaments and how to pick up on body language to adapt my approaches quickly to ensure safety for all parties involved. This also helps to ensure that the animals are as stress free as can be. I do work full time however, I am typically available Mondays and Tuesdays, and most evenings. However this can change due to my work schedule. I have a fenced of garden to ensure security during their stay. I am also very knowledgeable about canine behaviours and training so am easily able to pick up on signs of distress when out on a walk to adapt and change to the environment

We felt very comfortable leaving Otis with Lisa whilst we went on holiday. He loved her as soon as they met and enjoyed every walk. Lisa also left detailed messages after each walk and I would definitely use her again!

About: Hi, I’m Emily! 🐾 I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I had my own Border Collie from the age of 4 until I was 21, so I grew up caring for her and being responsible for her day to day needs, from feeding and walking her to giving her lots of love and attention. Since then, I’ve continued to look after friends and family members pets, and I really enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy and cared for. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be a big decision, so I’ll always treat your dog as if they were my own. I’m happy to provide plenty of walks, attention, playtime and cuddles. I absolutely love dogs and would be delighted to meet yours! 🐶❤️ I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I can fit walks and drop in visits easily around my routine. I’m available throughout the week and can be flexible with timings where possible. I’m happy to work around your dog’s usual routine and make sure they get the care, exercise and attention they need. 🐾 When your dog is in my care, you can expect lots of love, attention and plenty of tail wags! 🐾 I’ll take the time to get to know your dog and understand their routine, personality and individual needs. Whether we’re out enjoying a walk or spending time together during a drop in visit, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and cared for. You can expect regular updates about how your dog is doing, and I’m always happy to send photos from our time together. My aim is for you to feel completely reassured knowing your dog is in safe and loving hands. ❤️

Shannon was warm and friendly. She ensured we had a meet & greet before walking Luka and asked me questions about Luka's needs. Shannon went the extra mile in looking after Luka for longer than agreed due to a mix-up by my mum, and she was very patient and understanding about it. Luka came home happy and nicely tired out from his walks. Would recommend Shannon and use her services again.

About: I am new to the pet setting world, however I've grown up and owned dogs all my life (including collies, spaniels, jack russels and labs). I've looked after friends dogs and spent time walking dogs on borrow my doggy. I'm patient and comfortable with many animals, including cats, guinea pigs, rabbits etc. I am not currently in a position to have pets where I live. Hence, me offering this service to spend time with animals, and to give others piece of mind when away. I do have a job, which is why my free time is predominantly first thing in the morning, evening, Friday afternoons or weekends. I am happy to discuss possible lunch time drop ins via messenger. I work full-time, however I'm in a hybrid role so can spend time with your loving pet while I'm on my lunch break. I can also finish work at 4pm, so plenty of time to go for a long walk or play in the evenings. I only work half days on Fridays and often have weekends free. I only offer care for pets in your home, so they are used to the environment. When out walking I also won't let them off the lead until we are confident they will recall.

About: I’ve always had a family dog since I was born - two weinmaranas. This encouraged me to walk both neighbours and family members dogs from a young age of 10. Therefore, animals have always been a passion of mine leading to me committing to a zoology degree at university. It has taught me how important animals are for our ecosystems as well as for our own health. Apart from university, I have no other commitments meaning I am only available on weekdays: Monday/Tuesday- 12:40-4:30, Thursday/Friday- 9:15-12:30. I am fully available over the weekend. I will follow all the owners instructions of the routines and/or equipment they would like me to use appropriately to ensure the best care for their pet.

About: I've been around many different dogs my whole life. I grew up in a family where everyone has a dog, including myself. I love working with dogs and love helping out people with their pets. Family members, neighbors and friends have relied on me to look after, walk and check in on their beloved fur-babies. I am currently working part time, so I can work around you and your fur-baby's schedule! I am available most mornings and some evenings depending on my work shifts. I make sure to understand what you and your pup need from me when going on a walk. I will ensure that you dog is well supervised in public areas, especially if they are well trained off lead. Along with walks, I am happy to take them to a park and play ball with them, if you are comfortable with me doing so.

About: I'm someone who's always had a soft spot for dogs and animals. I absolutely love going on long walks in the park more than anything, and would love having some company. Whenever my friend head out of town, I happily step in to look after her two adorable cockerpoos. Those weekends are filled with cuddles, playtime, and all the care they could ask for. I'm most of my friends go to person to look after their pets when they go on holiday. :) I have a very flexible schedule and work from home most days, so I'm easily available anytime of day. When it comes to following your rules and sticking to your pet's routine, consider it done. Your fur babies will be in the best of hands, and I'll make sure they have the best time. I work from home most days, with a very flexible schedule. I’m pretty much available most mornings, during the day and most evening until quite late I am not able to host any pets. Taking care of pets in your home, I understand is a huge amount of trust, however i’m a very respectful person and would follow all and any instructions.

About: Having grown up in a multi-pet household in Manchester my entire life with three dogs and three cats, caring for and loving furry friends isn't just a hobby for me, it's second nature. I understand the importance maintaining the daily routines that keep pets feeling safe and secure, especially with a someone unfamiliar. I have relocated to Cheltenham and wish to turn this passion into my full-time career. Because this is my focus, I offer flexible, dedicated, and highly attentive care full of belly rubs and cuddles (if permitted, of course). Multi-pet environment: Comfortable and experienced in managing households with both dogs and cats, ensuring everyone gets along and receives equal attention. Active walkies: I love being outdoors with the company of a furry friend and am fully prepared to give high-energy dogs the long, stimulating walks they need to stay happy and healthy. Routines: From precise feeding schedules to administering basic medication or managing specific behavioural quirks, I pride myself on maintaining the exact structure your pet needs to feel safe. Update photos: I treat every animal as if they are my best friend from the get-go, whilst also understanding their boundaries, of course. I am highly communicative and will always send you photo and text updates so you know your pet is happy and having fun while you're away. Tailored check-ins and housesitting: While I cannot host pets at my current home, I am fully available for drop-in visits and overnight stays in your home to help your pet stay stress-free in their own comfortable environment. My current routine allows me to easily accommodate your pet's needs throughout the week: Weekends & Evenings - am 100% available every weekend and evening for long walks, dinner feedings, evening drop-ins, and overnight house sitting. Part-Time Days Off - On my days off from my part-time work, my schedule is completely open to accommodate any service you need, including mid-day walks and playing, check-ins or full-day care. Part-Time Working Days - On days I work, I am available for early morning walks/feedings and evening care to make sure your pet is look after before and after the standard workday. My routine is consistent and non-demanding so I am very flexible and able to adapt to your pet's preferred feeding and walk schedule. Since I provide drop-in visits and house sitting directly in your home, your pet gets to stay where they feel most confidence and secure. I like to prioritise safety, trust and stress free environment through the following: In advance meeting: Before any booking, I am very willing to meet you and your pet in person to learn their personality, favourite sleeping spots and any dietary or house rules. Security: I ensure doors and gates are always double checked and keys are kept securely to maintain the security of your home. Emergencies: I am attentive to sudden mood, appetite or behaviour changes and any concerns will be expressed in my commitment to clear communication with you throughout my stay. Daily updates: You'll receive photo and video updates and a note after every visit so that you never have to worry how your furry friend is doing.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, growing up with four schnauzers and a cocker spaniel. I also had my own schnauzer, Teo, back in Colombia, so I understand how much pets mean to their families. I’ll care for your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own. I run my own freelance interior design business from my home studio, which gives me the flexibility to organise my schedule around my clients’ and their pets’ needs. This means I can offer home visits throughout the day for feeding, walks, playtime, toilet breaks, and companionship. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends where possible, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your preferred times. I’m also happy to arrange a free meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other and make sure it’s the right fit for both you and your pet. Your pet’s wellbeing is always my priority. I currently offer home visits and dog walking, as I believe many pets are happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, making sure they have fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages for extra peace of mind. At the moment, I don’t offer pet boarding at my own home as I don’t have a garden. However, it’s something I’d love to offer in the future when I have the right outdoor space. Until then, I’m committed to providing reliable, caring visits in your pet’s own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable.

About: I’ve lived with dogs my entire life and have always jumped at the opportunity to pet sit! I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I love getting to know what makes each dog happiest. Whether your pup needs lots of walks, playtime, and adventures or would rather spend the day snuggling on the sofa, I’m happy to match their vibe and routine. With clear instructions from you, I’ll make sure your dog gets all the care, attention, and love they need while you’re away. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your dog, and I’d love to be that reliable, safe, and caring person for you and your pup. My goal is to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and right at home! 🐾💕 I'm a self-employed yoga instructor with lots of free time throughout the day and evenings to give lots of love and support to your pup! My availability is very open during the week and Sunday but with Saturday mornings being busy for me from 7am to noon. I live in a flat on the 2nd level of an apartment building. I have access to a large unfenced garden and dog-friendly park just outside. I do not own a crate, but am more than happy to assemble yours in my home if needed! I offer walks and overnight pet sitting services done in your own home as well if that is more convenient with you. With plenty of experience in fostering dogs, I feel more than comfortable around all doggy personalities and abilities.

About: Experienced in pet and house sitting, always receiving positive feedback from owners.

I’m currently working part time, aswell as managing my own art and photography business from home. This allows for a lot of flexibility in my schedule. All safety requirements are handled professionally, and your home environment will remain secure during any home visit services. I can appreciate any uncertainty when booking for the first time - which is why I can provide many references on request! I value professionalism just as much as high-standard pet care.

My dog chooses his own walkers/minders and given how he bounces up and down in delight when Clare arrives at the door, he has obviously made his decision !! Clare’s quiet and calm demeanour is perfect for my excitable little mutt, and I feel completely relaxed when she takes him out. Regarding my dealings with her, she has shown remarkable patience with my uncertain situation, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a professionally minded and reliable walker and sitter.

FAQs for Dog Walking – Cheltenham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Cheltenham on Rover is £17.25 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 1,384 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Cheltenham. Enter your postcode 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-to-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 Cheltenham. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood 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, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Cheltenham.

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 dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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 must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.

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.
