About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. I regularly pet sit for family dogs and have experience looking after their different personalities, routines and individual needs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m patient, caring and responsible, and I understand how important it is to treat every dog as an individual. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and would love to provide your pup with plenty of attention, exercise and companionship while you’re away or busy. At the moment my schedule changes from week to week so I will update this when needed. But I will be available full days at least 2 days a week. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and regularly pet sit for family dogs, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and routines. Dog walking is my preferred service, and I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention and care while keeping them safe at all times. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and any specific instructions you provide, including feeding, treats, playtime and medication where appropriate. I can also provide pet sitting in your own home if needed, helping your dog feel comfortable in their familiar environment while you’re away. I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is in safe, caring and responsible hands.

About: I had a dog for 11 years growing up - taking care of her from when she was a puppy until she was a senior dog. I have lots of experience caring for smaller dogs at any age! I also have experience taking care of partially sighted dogs. I am aware of the impact on their depth perception and being careful of their blind spots. I work from home most days, so have lots of time to look after your dog, or take them out for a walk. We also live in close proximity to several parks. I will always supervise dogs when outside in the garden especially and be vigilant on walks. During periods of warmer weather, I have a cooling mat, cooling bibs and even a dog paddling pool, which I can bring along to keep your pup cool!

About: I had a dog when I was a teenager and I used to live in Spain before coming here. Here in London I have taken care of two of my friends' cats and the dog of a third friend when they have gone on holidays. I have stayed at their houses as is easier for the pet to feel safe and at ease, I have made sure that they are feed, change the cats sand and taken the dog on walks and to the park to play. I am currently working 2–3 days a week in the mornings, up to 1:00 PM, 2:00 PM, or 2:30 PM per day in retail, and three evenings a week as a childminder from 3:30 PM to 6:00 PM (sometimes 5:30 PM). I am always free one whole day per week (mostly Tuesdays), most evenings, and Saturday afternoon. First of all, I make sure to follow all the instructions that the owner gives me. I keep an eye on anything they can eat and I play with them.

About: Hello! We are Giuliana and Lucas, a dedicated couple currently traveling around the UK. For the past 4 months, we’ve been housesitting and pet-sitting full-time across England and Scotland. We are thrilled to now bring our passion and experience to the Rover community! What sets us apart is our extensive, hands-on experience with a wide variety of pets and needs. We don’t just watch over pets; we treat them like family. Our background includes: Puppy Care: We know the patience, energy, and consistency required to look after high-energy young pups and maintain their routines. Senior & Medical Care: We are fully experienced in administering medications and providing the gentle, attentive care that senior or special-needs dogs require. All Shapes & Sizes: From large, energetic dogs that need strong handlers to independent cats who just want a cozy lap, we adapt perfectly to every personality. Since we travel and work as a team, your pet will get double the love, attention, and supervision. We are organized, extremely clean, and committed to giving you peace of mind with regular updates and photos! As full-time house and pet sitters, looking after animals is not just a side job, it is our primary focus and daily lifestyle. Because we travel and work remotely as a team, our schedule is incredibly flexible. Your pets will rarely be left alone, as at least one of us is almost always at home to keep them company, stick to their exact feeding schedules, and give them the attention they deserve. Our daily routine completely adapts to your pet's needs: from morning walks and playful afternoons to administering medications on a strict timeline or simply sharing quiet cuddles on the sofa. Your pet’s comfort and routine dictate our day. We care for pets exclusively in the owner's home, ensuring they stay in their safest, most comfortable, and familiar environment. We treat every home we step into with the utmost respect, cleanliness, and responsibility. Safety and Trust are our top priorities: Home Security: We strictly follow all security guidelines, ensuring doors and gates are locked, alarms are set, and keys are safely managed. Pet Safety: We maintain a sharp eye on their environment, making sure harmful food or hazards are out of reach. On walks, dogs are always kept securely on their leashes unless specified otherwise by you in safe, designated areas. Medical Peace of Mind: We are highly responsible with medication schedules and always have the details of your preferred local vet on hand in case of any emergency. Communication: We believe communication is key to your peace of mind. You will receive daily updates, photos, and videos so you can see exactly how happy and relaxed your pet is while you are away.

About: I've spent the past three years caring for all kinds of pets, from energetic puppies to laid-back senior cats, and it's been a truly rewarding journey. Whether it's pet sitting or dog walking, I love getting to know each animal's unique personality and needs. I've become pretty skilled at recognizing what makes them happy and comfortable, whether that's a game of fetch, a leisurely stroll, or just some good belly rubs. One of the best parts of this job is the bonds I build with both the pets and their owners. It's a great feeling knowing that pets are excited to see me and that their owners have peace of mind while they're away. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for every pet I look after. If you're looking for someone who will treat your furry friend like family, I'm here to help! Mornings start with cheerful greetings and energetic walks, setting a positive tone for the day. Throughout the day, I ensure pets receive timely meals, play sessions, and plenty of affection, all tailored to their unique personalities. Evenings are dedicated to winding down together, whether it's cuddling up indoors or enjoying a leisurely stroll before bedtime. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets in their own homes. I take extra care to ensure that their environment is secure and comfortable. This includes double-checking that doors and gates are properly closed and secure before any outdoor activities. Inside, I'm vigilant about removing any potential hazards like small objects or toxic plants that pets could accidentally ingest. I also maintain a routine of careful supervision during playtime and ensure that any medications or special instructions from pet owners are followed to the letter. By maintaining a safe and loving environment, I aim to provide peace of mind for pet owners, knowing their beloved companions are in good hands.

Aveline is responsible, punctual and easy to work with. She was able to make our two furry babies feel comfortable and safe when on walks with her. Aveline takes them to the park and they get tired after long walks. One of our dogs is almost 15 years old and Aveline was able to make him feel comfortable. What I appreciate the most is that Aveline is always on time, positive and responsible. Sometimes Aveline walks them extra 10-15 minutes. Highly recommend Aveline!

Enrica has been an absolute lifesaver for both me and Haku. Her attention to detail and willingness to accommodate Haku's unique needs, from ensuring she's walked with the right gear to keeping her safe and happy during their outings, truly sets her apart. Enrica's thoughtful approach and clear communication have been invaluable, making it easy for me to trust her with Haku's care. Enrica truly goes above and beyond- from taking Haku to an agility course (which is her favorite), to preventing Haku from scaling trees when she goes full-on squirrel-chaser. And Enrica, thank you for your understanding and patience as I finally write this review! You're truly a gem, and I'm grateful to have you as our trusted dog walker.

About: Hi, I’m Yan Yi! I’ve got an 14 year old golden retriever at home in Singapore, and have been regularly walking dogs in London since I moved here for uni in 2022. I love walking around the city, but whenever I'm walking in a park, I always think to myself: this would be so much more fun with a dog. I'm fond of long walks, so if you've got an energetic pup that needs a lot of exercise to tire them out, I'm your girl! I’m currently an postgraduate university student. I am willing to work around your preferred timings as much as necessary, and can take on last minute bookings as well. Outside of the parks, I will never walk your dog off-leash, and even then will only do so if I have met and spent enough time with your dog for mutual trust to exist. (And of course, only if I have your permission!)

About: I bring a lifetime of experience owning and caring for dogs, including training them as puppies and taking care of them when older. My patience, love for play, and fitness guarantee engaging walks and quality cuddle time for dogs of all sizes and ages. As a student with flexible time, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. With exams behind me, I have ample availability throughout the week to dedicate to your furry friend. Whether it's early morning walks, midday playtime, or late-night cuddles, I'm here to provide attentive care whenever needed. For pet care in my apartment, I provide a cozy and safe environment, ensuring ample space for play and relaxation. Living near Royal Holloway campus allows for plenty of outdoor adventures in dog-friendly areas like Founders Field, providing ample exercise and stimulation. Additionally, I'm thrilled to fulfill my dream of exploring Virginia Water with a furry companion, offering enriching experiences and long walks. When caring for pets in their homes, I quickly adapt to new environments, prioritising the comfort and well-being of the pet while maintaining their routine and environment as per the owner's instructions.

FAQs for Dog Walking - London

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in London on Rover is £17.25 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 23,135 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across London. 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 London. 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 London.

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 Walkers who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 87% of Walkers can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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 23,135 Walkers in London, 46% 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.
