About: I've looked after animals my entire life. I come from a family full of different kind of animals so I care for them very well. I’m available at any time during the week and weekends so I have plenty of time to look after your fury friends! Just let me know when suits you best :) I will be walking your dogs so I will ensure that I will keep a bottle of water on me at all times and a small bowl so they can drink. I will also make sure that I carry some treats with me too and a dog toy so they can play!

The lovely Nadia, and her equally lovely daughter, walked Stan for me this morning, and did such a great job! It was my first time using this app, and she really put me at ease. They popped round to meet Stan the day before (and got on like a house on fire), so he was mega excited to see them again this morning! I'll definitely be hiring Nadia again, and would highly recommend her services! Stanley has 2 new best friends :)

About: Hi there! I'm an experienced pet sitter and walker, as well as owner, and have always done it as a favor since I love all kinds of animals and have had some friends who needed somewhere to leave their pets sometimes. I decided to make it professional to help whoever needs a little extra help! I've had pets all my life and was always good with them. At my flat I only have one cat, Nala. I'd love to petsit your cat/dog or take them for walks, making sure to keep them company and provide toilet breaks whenever needed, as well as play and relax a lot! If your pet has any special needs, please tell me, I'll gladly accept and cherish them! I'll also gladly take photos of the walk/daycare with your pet and keep you updated throughout the day! (: Currently working full-time and a Photographer but still looking after your little ones whenever possible! Limited availability but I'm more than happy to help (: Currently not offering boarding services but I can drop in at yours for either a quick check in or a day of fun and relaxation! I usually have some work to do or shows to watch so if your pet is a laid back one, I'll have no problem just chilling with them (:

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. I take this job seriously. I can also train dogs but the simple tasks using treats for this I’m currently a university student. But my timetable is very flexible. I can do also weekends which are more suitable and more free for me. I love going on walks throughout the city and if i had company by a dog that would be really good. The safety of your dogs is my number one priority and i would never risk or do anything that can harm you or your dog.

About: I truly treat every pet as if they were my own with patience, affection and close attention to their unique needs. What sets me apart is my calm and reliable nature, especially with pets that may be anxious or need extra reassurance. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs who require gentler handling and a slower pace. I’m attentive to routines, medication needs and body language, ensuring your pet feels safe and loved while you're away. Pet care fits into my routine perfectly as I currently work part-time, usually between 5pm and 11pm. This means I’m available during the day for walks or extended visits. I enjoy starting my mornings with pet care whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping your pet company. On my days off, I’m also flexible with longer daytime care. When doing dog walks or home visits, I always prioritise the pet’s safety, comfort and routine. I make sure collars and harnesses are secure before walks, avoid unsafe or overly busy areas, and adjust the pace based on the dog’s energy level and needs. During home visits, I follow your instructions closely, from feeding and fresh water to playtime or just some company. I respect your space and make sure everything is locked and secure when I leave. I also send updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is well cared for.

About: I had a dog back home for over five years, and he was such a big part of my life. I really miss having that companionship and joy, especially the little moments that make each day brighter. That’s why I signed up for Rover—to bring that feeling back and spend time with dogs again. Also I’ve taken care of pets back at my home country. I have looked after many of my friends and family members dogs. What makes me different is that I will try my best to keep your pet happy. When I study I stay home and I have plenty of time to watch your pet and give it what it needs, anytime it needs it High windows create a safe environment for a pet, plenty of doors to stop a pet from escaping. And I am always close to it to watch it

About: I’ve grown up in a farm, surrounded by big and active dogs, like my beauceron Marky and my Belgian shepherd Newton. My cat Arma also shares my life since I’m 18, I love pets and providing them the most comfortable environment and most entertaining time. I’m usually flexible and available short notice, and we can keep in touch anytime during your time away. I am very flexible and I have a car (which can carry a pet). I also run, if your dog is active and likes that! I’m very reliable and trustworthy. I’ll always respect the directions given to keep the most stable routine for your pet. We may also video/call before a booking if that’s reassuring!

About: I’ve been caring for my cousin’s dogs for years and have my own dog who’s been with me for over 10 years. I’ve gained a lot of experience understanding different temperaments, routines and needs whether it’s keeping playful dogs entertained or making sure older pets are comfortable and cared for. I treat every dog like my own with patience love and attention to detail. I’m currently studying at university, but I have lots of free days and love spending that time caring for animals. I’ll always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve! Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow the owners instructions, keep a close eye on the pets at all times and make sure their environment is secure and stress-free. I believe trust is built through consistency, patience, and genuine care.

About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for animals, both through volunteering at an animal shelter and privately for friends and family. Working with animals has always been an important part of my life – something I truly enjoy and find deeply rewarding. I currently dedicate most of my free time to animals, simply because I love their company and genuinely care about their well-being. As a student with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to spend with the pets I look after. I understand how important routine, attention, and patience are when it comes to animal care. Each pet is unique, and I always do my best to understand their personality and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease in my care. Your pet will have full access to my home. I also have a quiet, private room where pets can relax whenever they need their own space – a great balance between comfort and calm. Whether it’s an energetic dog that needs long walks or a shy cat who prefers a cozy corner, I adapt to what makes each animal feel best.

About: Hi, I’m Emmanuel and I’ve had the opportunity to cater to Fur besties for 7 years! I owned 2 dogs back in my country and I have taken care of dogs and cats here in Leicester. I really cherish and value fur besties. I don’t see pet sitting as a chore and I’m able to connect to pets easily. I have a part-time job but I can easily make plans to sit/walk/care for your pets, I’m pretty flexible with my work schedule and I can make room for my fur besties with a 1-day prior notice. I love to think of every pet in my care as mine, accordingly, I give as much love as I can. I’m very much attentive and aware of your pets thus I do a proper scan of their environment every now and then just to make sure they are alright.

About: I currently work at Dogs Trust, so I've got lots of doggy experience, of all breeds, shapes and sizes. I've also had lots of experience working in other rescue shelters across the world, such as in Asia, South America and in Europe! I have done dog sitting for friends and family and send regular updates and photos to make sure the owner can relax, knowing that their pet is happy and safe :) I completed an Animal Behaviour and Welfare Degree at University and have always had a keen interest in animals! I'd say that animals are better companions than humans (lol). I've volunteered at a Canine Hydrotherapy Pool which was very interesting to be a part of and also worked at a dog training and boarding kennels, so I feel I have lots of experience working and being around dogs :) I am available most Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays. I work Tuesday - Friday, so am unavailable in the daytime, however some evenings could be possible. Feel free to message me with any availability enquiries :) I am patient, attentive and caring, so always giving your doggo the best time, whether that is popping round for a visit, a play and toilet, or having a nice walk in the park. I love an adventure and love walking so I'm very happy to walk! If your dog prefers a more chilled atmosphere, I am also more than happy to relax at home. I have walked many dogs in public and non public spaces, so I am confident walking your dog on lead. I can also be trusted in your home with your dog (I have had many responsible roles in the past, I was a keyholder and managed a shop by myself). I am always happy to answer any questions about myself.

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover with lifelong experience caring for pets including cats, dogs, chickens and fish. I have experience with dog walking, dog sitting and cat sitting, and I genuinely love spending time with animals of all personalities and needs. I’m especially confident with shy, nervous or rescue pets who may need extra patience, gentleness, and understanding. I know how important it is to help animals feel safe, comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I also have a beautiful cat called Charlie who means the world to me, so I completely understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, reliable and compassionate to care for your pets. I’ll always treat your pets with the same love, attention, and care that I’d want for my own. 💗 I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for pet sitting, drop in visits, and walks. I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, companionship and consistent care throughout the day. I’m reliable, attentive and happy to work around your pet’s usual routine to help them feel as comfortable and settled as possible while you’re away. I prioritise safety, trust, and a calm, secure environment for every animal in my care. I have experience caring for both indoor and outdoor cats, as well as puppies, kittens, and older animals, so I understand the different needs at every stage of life. I’m confident handling daily care tasks such as litter box cleaning, changing puppy pads, feeding routines, and maintaining a clean and hygienic space. I also provide dog walking and enjoy engaging pets through play, enrichment, and gentle interaction tailored to their personality and energy levels. I have experience working with animals who are anxious, temperamental, or have had difficult past experiences, and I approach them with patience, consistency, and respect for their boundaries. I always aim to build trust at the animal’s own pace. My home and care approach are calm and structured, with a focus on reducing stress and ensuring pets feel safe, understood, and well looked after while their owners are away.

About: Hi all, I’m a caring and compassion individual and my career choice reflects this. As a student nurse I aim to expand my aspects of care across all individuals, including animals. My family dog has recently passed away aged 16. Getting to be apart of other dogs routines will really help me on my grief journey. I am currently on study leave for a year from university. I will be working part time so I would want to fill my weekends with something special. My family dog that has recently passed away was well loved and cared for. She lives 16 long loving years. Always entertained with loads of walks and play time.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Leicester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Leicester on Rover is £16.1 per walk (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 2,515 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Leicester. 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 Leicester. 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 Leicester.

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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .

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. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

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.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Walking. With 2,515 Walkers in Leicester, 43% 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.
