About: **Currently not taking on bookings for Jan 2027 onwards** As a proud owner of two dogs, I know that your pets aren't just animals—they’re family. I’ve spent years providing a 'home away from home' for the pets of friends and family, ensuring they stay happy, relaxed, and loved while their humans are away. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior cat who just wants a quiet lap, I’m comfortable with a wide range of breeds and temperaments. My daily routine already revolves around long walks and playtime with my own two dogs, so you can rest easy knowing your pet will get the exercise and attention they deserve. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend! I currently part-time working around 20-30 hours spread out across the week. I always have lots of free time where I can love your animals, make sure they are relaxed, fed and happy. I will ensure your animals are fed around their schedule, taken on walks suited for their needs, let out regularly for a bathroom break and well loved for the entire stay. As a dog lover myself, they will receive lots of attention and cuddles if they want them. I can adjust to a dogs different needs as I know all dogs are different and they will be receiving the requirements they want and need.

About: I have experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, hamsters, and rabbits, and I always make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after. I live in a house with a secure, medium-sized fenced garden, giving pets safe outdoor access whenever they need it. I’m also just a short walk from local woodland areas, which are perfect for giving dogs proper exercise and a change of environment. I work from home, so I’m able to provide regular attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, or just a calm place to relax, I can adapt to their routine and needs I work from home in a flexible sales role, which means I’m around throughout the day to give pets plenty of attention, care, and supervision. I’m able to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, and feeding, and I’m available every day of the week, including weekends. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can easily adapt my routine to suit their needs. My home is a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I have a fully fenced garden for secure outdoor time, and there are no other pets or young children in the house, so your pet can relax without stress. I keep a clean and tidy space and always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m attentive to each pet’s routine and needs, whether that’s quiet rest time or regular play and exercise. I also take care to keep the environment safe by securing gates, removing hazards, and supervising outdoor time.

“Victoria is great! Frankie loves spending time with her and fatty, he always comes back a happy boy! She has made him feel comfortable enough to poo when out walking with her now which is a huge thing as he is anxious about doing his business. Thank you so much for your help”

“Mia’s love for dogs shows through everything she does. Mia shows just as much love to my dog as I’m sure she would to her own dogs. Mia is very flexible in her approach and was a massive help to us! Mia did some walks for us with our 14 week old puppy who is not the easiest on walks. Mia also attended to the house and cleaned up accidents that our pup had whilst waiting for her walk! Would definitely recommend Mia if you are looking for someone to show your dog love and attention just as you would! Could not praise Mia enough”


About: Looked after dogs all my life, have loads of experience with dogs. Love walks and will cater to all different types of breeds! I provide attentive, tailored and reliable care to each pets unique needs too. I work from home either 3 days or 4 days a week. I’m constantly looking after my family’s dog in my own home so already have all the necessary basics! In My Home: I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your dog is treated like part of the family. I maintain a consistent routine with regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, and rest. Pets are never left alone, and I always follow any specific care instructions you provide to keep your dog comfortable and happy. In Your Home: I respect your space and your pet’s routine by maintaining their familiar environment and daily habits. Whether it’s feeding, administering medication, or simply keeping them company, I ensure they receive loving, attentive care. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of multiple breeds of dogs during my time at a doggy daycare centre for work experience in 2020. I am also currently studying a Level 2 animal care qualification at a local doggy daycare. My friends and family have become reliant on me to pet sit whilst they were out of the UK. Over the years i have owned 2 Jack Russell's and a springer spaniel and i now currently own 2 Jack Russell's and 2 budgies! I have also helped deliver 2 litters on separate occasions, one of which was my Jack's litter and the other was my siblings dachshund. Other breeds i have taken care of include: Labrador, border collie, German shorthaired pointer and dachshund! I have some experience with cats however i would preferably suit pet care for dogs. At the moment i am flexible but this will change coming towards the end of july. I am free Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays and friday however this can change and I can work mornings, afternoon and evenings. I don't offer pet sitting/boarding at my home address due to my female dogs being heavily territorial and also still living at home with family. On the other hand, i will update owners with pictures whilst they are in my care.

About: Hi! I’m Laura 😊 I’ve always loved dogs and have a French Bulldog called Gus, who keeps me on my toes! He’s energetic and loves his walks, so I’m very used to keeping an active dog entertained with plenty of exercise, playtime and attention. I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes, including brachycephalic breeds like French Bulldogs. I’m more than happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, training and any instructions you leave, so they feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. I have a fully enclosed garden and plenty of space for dogs to relax, play and get some fresh air. I’m also a teacher, which means I have lots of availability during school holidays, as well as some evenings and weekends. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. Lots of love, walks, playtime and regular photo updates guaranteed! 🐶❤️ As a teacher, I have all school holidays free, which means I can completely work around your dog’s usual routine during those times. Whether they need early morning walks, lunchtime visits or evening cuddles, I’m happy to fit around what works best for them. During term time, I’m available on evenings and weekends for walks, drop-in visits and pet care. I’ll always be upfront about my availability and will only accept bookings that I know I can give my full attention to. I have a fully enclosed private garden, giving dogs a safe outdoor space to relax and enjoy some fresh air as well as easy access for toilet breaks. My own French Bulldog, Gus, is energetic and loves his walks, so I’m very used to giving dogs plenty of exercise, attention and playtime throughout the day. For dogs staying in my home, I’d need to know they’re comfortable around other dogs. Gus is very friendly, playful and still thinks he’s a puppy! He’s also good at listening when another dog lets him know they’ve had enough. I’d always arrange a meet and greet beforehand to make sure everyone gets along and feels comfortable.
About: I bring a calm, patient, and attentive approach to every dog I care for. My experience includes working with puppies, high energy breeds, and senior dogs who need a little extra support. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering oral medications, reinforcing training, and managing dogs with special needs or anxiety. I focus on creating a safe, loving environment where each dog feels understood and cared for. Whether it’s helping a puppy with basic manners, offering gentle support to older dogs with mobility issues, or giving shy pups time and space to warm up, I tailor my care to each dog’s personality. I treat every pet like family making sure they stay happy, comfortable, and well loved while you’re away. Pet care is an integral and deliberately structured component of my weekly routine. I organize my schedule to ensure consistent availability for feedings, exercise, medication administration, and any specialized care requirements. By maintaining a controlled and well-planned calendar, I am able to devote the necessary time and attention to each pet without exceeding capacity or compromising the quality of care provided. I designate specific periods throughout the day for walks, check-ins, and enrichment activities, and I align my personal and professional obligations around these commitments. This structured approach allows me to uphold each pet’s established routine while ensuring that their needs are met promptly and reliably. My schedule is intentionally designed to offer both stability and flexibility, enabling me to accommodate the unique timing preferences of each client while maintaining a high level of professionalism, consistency, and attentiveness. I place the highest priority on creating a safe, controlled, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. Whether I am caring for a pet in my home or in the owner’s residence, I adhere to consistent standards designed to promote security, hygiene, and well-being. In My Home: I maintain a clean, organized living space free of hazards, with secure areas designated specifically for pets. All doors, gates, and access points are monitored to prevent accidental escapes, and I provide appropriate supervision during indoor and outdoor activities. Pets are introduced to the environment gradually to ensure they feel calm, supported, and confident. In the Owner’s Home: I follow the owner’s established routines with precision, respecting their household rules and the pet’s familiar environment. I ensure doors, crates, feeding stations, and walk routes are managed exactly as instructed. I take care to maintain cleanliness, adhere to all safety protocols, and communicate promptly regarding any observations or concerns. Regardless of location, I prioritize clear communication, punctuality, and meticulous attention to detail. My goal is to ensure each pet receives consistent, reliable care in an environment that promotes both physical safety and emotional comfort, allowing owners to trust that their pet is in responsible and attentive hands.

“Very pleasant young lady. I booked Yarah to take my dog out for a midday walk. The meet and greet went great and she was eager to learn all she could about my dogs personality and his temperament. After the walk she discussed everything with me and was open and honest about how it went. Would definitely recommend Yarah she is passionate about all animals.”

Victoria answered my last minute need for a dog walker and went above and beyond for my puppy who needed the walks as well as my older dog who loves a bit of attention! She was quick to respond and always followed my requests which calmed my anxiety significantly! I could not recommend Victoria more!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Oldham on Rover is £18 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £13 and £23 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 4,645 Walkers on Rover offering Dog Walking across the city of Oldham. About 80% 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 Oldham. 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 Oldham 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.
