About: As a dog-owner with plenty of neighbours with pet, I have been a reliable source whenever my neighbours have needed someone to look after their dogs / cats. I am super-active and love taking dogs out for long walks on beaches, local parks and discovering new places! I am an incoming medical student starting at Oxford, looking for a little extra cash to help me with my studies, as well as an opportunity to look after loads of furry friends!!! I’m currently not working and am in a stage where I am in preparation for university, and so I have plenty of time and flexibility to look after your pets. I have a 14 year old dog who is super friendly, but as I live with my family I am able to accommodate your pet without bringing my dog. I have a medium-sized garden and live right by lots of parks and the quay so there are lots of lovely walks that I will be able to take your dogs on! My own dog is super pet-friendly and would love to keep your little one company. I take my dog out for regular breaks and so your furry friend will have lots of outdoor time should they need it!
About: Hi! I’m currently a postgraduate student living in the UK. I’m quite a calm and patient person, and I really enjoy spending quiet time with animals 🐱🐶 I once rescued a stray cat and took care of it for about 6 months, so I understand the responsibility of feeding, cleaning, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I also have some experience with dog walking, and I’m always gentle and attentive when looking after pets. As a student, my schedule is quite flexible during the week. I’m happy to follow your routines carefully and send updates, so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. I may not have years of experience, but I will genuinely care for your pet as if they were my own. I’m available in the mornings from 7–9am (Monday to Friday), evenings from 5:30–9:30pm (Tuesday to Friday), and I have full availability on Saturdays. I try to be flexible whenever possible, so feel free to message me to discuss your needs! When caring for pets in your home, I will make sure to respect your space and follow your instructions carefully. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I will try to keep their routine as normal as possible. I’m a clean and tidy person, and I will make sure everything is left as I found it. I’m also happy to send updates and photos, so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I work a desk job during the week and spend my weekends staying active with my own dog, exercise, mental estimulation and rewards— and I’d love another furry companion to join us! I am available all day Saturday, Sunday and bank holidays normally for walks, playtime, and potty breaks. We can also do introduction sessions with my dog and even training together. Reliable, active, and genuine dog lover. Preferably social dogs for day care in my house as I have a social dog, not necessarily for 1-1 walks. Please book in advance. I’m a Monday-Friday professional, so my pet care routine is strictly weekends-only. This allows me to treat dog walking as my favorite hobby and give your pup 100% of my energy on Saturdays and Sundays. In the Owner’s Home & On the Move: Arrival Ritual: I start with a calm entry to build trust, followed by a quick "wellness check" (fresh water, checking paws, and ensuring they are ready for the walk). Tailored Exercise: Since I only work weekends, I offer longer, high-energy walks or "adventure strolls" to local parks to help pups burn off weekday energy. Safety First: I stick strictly to your preferred routes and commands. I use a "double-check" method for harnesses and leashes before stepping outside. Post-Walk Care: Every walk ends with a paw wipe (if it’s a typical British rainy day!), a water bowl refill, and a quick "pupdate" text to you with a photo of our session
About: Hi! I’m a 19-year-old university student home for the holidays and looking to earn some extra money doing something I genuinely love caring for animals. I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and currently have a dog, two tortoises, and a much-loved cat who has been part of my family for 16 years and still sleeps on my bed every night without fail! I’m reliable, caring, and understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. Currently, i’m in my 2nd year at Exeter Uni studying neuroscience. This means that i will have specific times where i’ll be needed to attend classes and practicals but im great at communicating and will be able to find time every single day to do drop ins! I have a fenced garden aswell as 1 small friendly dog who gets along with everyone and everything. I also have 2 tortoises who are kept in a cage
“Sophie is one of Chunk’s favourite people ever! He is always so happy to see her & play with her! She is so caring & loving towards him! Super attentive to his needs, he’s a frenchie and can be quite stubborn (and likes his routine), but it’s never too much for Sophie. There’s no one we trust more to walk & spend time with our boy. ❤️”
About: Thanks to my dear friend Silvia, probably you know her, I started to think in start my new journey taking care of other people's family members. I have been around pets most of my life, and recently I started to share time with my beautiful neighbour Willow, so she taught me so much about cats. I am new and willing to learn all about it. Thanks for the trust! See you soon. I'm currently working part-time in the evenings from M to F, so I have plenty of time. Just contact me, and we can arrange it. Open to listening to your needs and seeing what I can do. I can offer sitting at home and also walking on the green; I can also walk and use a bicycle to reach your place. If the distance is long, I can use public transport; I will let you know the transport fees.
“Anneka has been amazing with my boy Drake! I knew he was in good hands as soon as I met her and her daughter. Lovely, kind and attentive! He is clearly very happy and well looked after by the photo updates. Thank you and he looks forward to seeing you again! :)”
“Imogen was brilliant with Dexter! A hyper 5 month old puppy, she definitely had her hands full. But she took him on a lovely walk, kept me updated throughout on pick ups and when walk was finished. Ensured she walked in shaded areas and that it wasnt too hot during the heatwave. Sending lots of happy photos, felt very happy that Dexter was safe and looked after throughout and after his walk. Will definitely be booking again! Thank you”
“Thank you for taking care of Beetle and being so flexible/helpful! Yung Hon has made my transition into school 100% less stressful by taking such good care of my pup.”
“Ryan is absolutely wonderful. My highly energetic working cocker spaniel really looks forwards to his walks with Ryan. He is so reliable and as his profile says”practically raised with dogs” which comes across with how much time he spent getting to know Ralph and understand his personality and needs before walking him. Really recommend Ryan lovely guy and our dog absolutes him 🙌🐾”
“I can not recommend Anna enough. I gave Anna next to no notice this morning due to being let down, unfortunately these thing happen. I was obviously stressed and was in a bit of a pickle. Anna responded almost immediately and came to the rescue. Kirby my 9 month old husky took to her kind nature straight away and we honestly cant thank or recommend highly enough.”
About: Hi, I’m Denise, a caring and reliable pet sitter with a lifelong love of animals. I grew up with dogs and cats, including rescue dogs, and have experience looking after dogs for friends and housemates, from walks and overnight stays to caring for them while their owners are away. I’m naturally very outdoorsy, so I love taking dogs on long walks where needed. I currently work part-time as a support worker with young adults with learning disabilities, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I treat every dog as if it were my own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m happy to look after high-energy dogs as well as more relaxed ones. I also have experience with puppies, nervous dogs, and rescue dogs. I have public liability insurance too, so you can have that extra peace of mind. I’d love to look after your dog and make sure they have a happy, fun and comfortable time while you’re away 🐾 I also offer dog walking and drop-in visits! I currently work part-time as a support worker, so I have plenty of flexibility. My schedule changes weekly, but I’ll always do my best to accommodate your needs. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask! I always follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure at all times, and I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages if you ask for it so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t offer pet sitting in my own home at the moment, but I’m happy to travel anywhere within 30 miles
About: We've had our own family dog for 5 years now and bred our own puppies - keeping 2 of them. I've always loved walking them, and playing with them and am brilliant at long or fast walks designed to tire them out so you can watch them peacefully sleep all day without trouble and watch them be excited for their next walk or playdate I'm a uni student, so have quite an irregular timetable but plenty of time during the morning, day and evening for pets if worked out in advance. I can be very upfront about when I'm available and also generally have weekends free. I will strive to always talk to you about boundaries and rules for your pet before being left with them, as well as for myself. I keep a watchful eye on the pets - I'll always subconsciously want to be playing with them regardless
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Exeter is £14

Rachel was absolutely brilliant walking our two boys from April 13th–17th. We started with a meet and greet where she was incredibly chilled and patient, even with the high-energy chaos that comes with spaniels! They bonded with her immediately. Throughout the week, Rachel was punctual, friendly, and provided fantastic communication. I loved receiving the Rover updates which included their walk times, distance, and lovely photos of them out and about. It gave us total peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker. Thank you so much for your help!

The average cost for Dog Walking in Exeter on Rover is £15.53 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 461 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Exeter. 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 Exeter. 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 Exeter.

Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
