“Lola is so comfortable with Josie, I am so pleased about that! Today she already recognized Josie's car and got excited about her walk, she couldn't wait to get out with Josie!😄”
“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. ❤️”
“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.”
“Hannah was wonderful with my aged little terrier and I really appreciated her flexibility with the time I needed for him and the kindness she showed when looking after my ‘little old man’. Thank you Hannah! 🤩”
“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 🙌🐾”
“Excellent dog walker. Lots of pictures, videos and updates of Dougal on his walk. Very attentive to Dougal’s needs, can tell Dougal enjoyed his walks with Susanna. Highly recommend.”
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
“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”
About: I’ve always lived with cats but am a lover of all animals. Have lived with a large dog part-time for the past 3 years (a crazy Vizla shown in my photos!) so am not intimidated by bigger/ high energy dogs. I have looked after cats, dogs, hens as well as small pets since around age 12. I’m very calm, will make sure your pet feels safe and happy to help however I can. Have experience dealing with senior animals and administering medications too, very willing to discuss requests like that. 🌟 I’m a final year uni student studying Biology. Happy to sit and study if pets just need some company while you’re out, as well as get out and about on a walk! Very adaptable depending on their needs, happy to cuddle or leave them be. I totally understand each animal has their preferences and I’ll always accommodate to what they like🐕.
About: Throughout my childhood I've had dogs, a bordie collie and a German shepherd cross labrador, and have now had several years experience of looking after neighbours's and friends' dogs. In the past year I have been walking dogs with a university group, and have walked a range of dogs including a couple dogs who struggled with anxiety and separation anxiety. I have walked and looked after dogs with a variety of sizes, energy and needs. I'm currently a uni student but with minimal contact hours, so I'm free for most of the day each weekday and happy to devote as much of my day as I can to your pet. I also have varying weekend availability I'm happy to check in on pets as often as required, and spend as much time with them as suits individuals' needs and requirements
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.
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for both cats and dogs. I grew up with cats and had a dog from the age of 16, so I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, play and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. My cat also had kittens when I was younger, so I’ve had experience being around cats from a very young age. I’ve also helped feed and look after neighbours’ pets on occasion and have spent lots of time around animals through friends who work professionally with them, including dog walkers and zoo staff. Although I’m new to pet sitting professionally, I’m confident around animals, attentive to their individual needs and happy to follow any routines or instructions you have for your pet. My schedule is currently quite flexible, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they need. I’m available throughout the week for walks and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine where possible. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone with both your pet and your home. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and respect your pet’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime and any house rules. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention while keeping their safety and comfort my priority.
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: I’ve always had a dog at home and have looked after dogs for neighbours, family and friends over the years, as well as a few cats. I just really love being around animals and getting to know their different personalities. I’m happy taking dogs out for walks and playing with them, but also very happy just sitting with them and having a cuddle in the evening. I’ll always do my best to make them feel comfortable and looked after while you’re away. I’m a uni student in Exeter, so I’d be able to fit pet care quite naturally into my daily routine. In the mornings, I’d feed them and take them out for a walk before heading to lectures. During the longer breaks in my day, I’d come home to let them out and spend a bit of time with them. Then in the evenings, I’d take them out for another walk, or we could just have a cosy evening together watching a nature show or something! Then weekends are totally free so a nice long walk if they’re up for it! I love animals and would treat them with lots of care, patience and attention, while making sure to follow their usual routine and anything their owner asks of me. I’d also be respectful of their home and keep everything clean and tidy. I’d be happy to give regular updates and photos too, so the owner knows their pet is doing well and feels reassured while they’re away.
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
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Exeter is £14
Dog owners share their Rover experiences – Exeter
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Exeter on Rover is £15 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £10 and £25 per walk.
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 October 2026, there are 486 Walkers on Rover offering Dog Walking across the city of Exeter. About 81% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.
Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
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 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 poo breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Exeter 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.
You can find dog walkers on Rover who have experience of walking dogs across a wide range of breeds, sizes and temperaments. Each walker's experience and the dogs they're comfortable handling will vary.
When searching for a walker, use the dog-size filter and select either 18–45 kg or 45+ kg. Then review walker profiles and verified reviews for experience with dogs of a similar size, strength, temperament, and energy level.
Before booking, tell the walker your dog’s breed and weight, how they walk on a lead, their usual pace and commands, any triggers, and how they react to other dogs, people and traffic. Explain any walking equipment or handling instructions the walker will need to follow.
Complete your dog's profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before the first walk. These steps can help you and the walker confirm that they're a good match for your dog.
Every walker must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the walker is the right fit before booking.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
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.
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've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've 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're 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'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Walking. With 486 Walkers in Exeter, 50% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.
Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.
