About: 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: Hi, I’m Jake and am new to Rover! From my time looking after friends and families pets and homes consistently for around 2 years, I have developed an affinity for caring for animals and am now interested in branching out to care for others during my remote working schedule. As I currently don’t have a rating on here, I kindly ask that you take time to check out my testimonials 🙂 I work a hybrid job, attending the office only part of the week, the rest of my time is spent remote working, allowing me to spend all day caring for pets. When caring for pets in their own home, I make it my priority to keep your pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine. When following feeding, exercise and care instructions from owners, I can ensure that your pets are safe and secure whilst away. During housesitting, homes are treated with respect, keeping the place clean and secure and providing regular updates.

About: My names Amy & I have two beautiful dogs called Narla and Mika! Narla is an XL Bully and Mika is a Patterdale Terrier. I have loved animals ever since I was only a few years old, ranging from Cats, dogs, gerbils, degu’s, skinny pigs and many more! I have worked with many different breeds with many different temperaments. Every dog is different and that’s what makes them all special in their own little way. I’m currently working part time, meaning I have time both before and after my shift to care for your pets. Whether that’s for a cuddle or a feed! I am DBS checked, have pet first aid and many other animal qualifications meaning my knowledge of pets wellbeing and what to do in the harder situations is advanced!

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.

About: I've grown up around animals and have had pets in the house for as long as I can remember, so looking after someone else's dog or cat feels completely natural to me rather than like a job. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits for feeding, fresh water, litter trays and a bit of company, and overnight or house sitting when you're away. I work from home, which means I'm around during the day and pets in my care aren't left on their own for hours at a time. It also makes me genuinely flexible. I can take early mornings, evenings, weekends and short-notice bookings that other sitters often can't. What you can expect from me: I turn up when I say I will, I stick to your pet's normal routine rather than imposing my own, and I'll send photo updates so you can see how they're getting on. Happy to give medication, handle nervous or older animals gently, and take as long as you need over a meet-and-greet first so both you and your pet are comfortable before anything is booked. I work from home, so pet care fits into my day rather than around it. I can do early morning, midday and evening visits without rushing between them, and I'm available weekdays and weekends including short notice, the bookings people with fixed office hours have to turn down. For house sitting I stay at your place for the whole booking, so your pet keeps their normal routine, sleeps in their own bed and isn't left alone overnight. I'll agree exact visit times with you in advance and stick to them. I look after pets in your home only, I don't board animals at mine. That's deliberate: your pet never has to settle into a strange house or meet unfamiliar animals, which takes a lot of the stress out of you going away. In your home I follow your setup exactly: same feeding routine, same food, same rules about which rooms they're allowed in, doors locked and windows shut every time I leave. I'll ask you to walk me through it all at the meet-and-greet and I write it down rather than trusting my memory. Dogs go out on lead and harness unless you've told me otherwise. I treat your keys and alarm code as confidential and never share your address. You'll get a photo and a short update after every visit, so you always know what's happened. If anything concerns me, off their food, limping, just not themselves I'll tell you straight away and I'll have your vet's details to hand.

I would highly recommend Mia to anybody looking for someone to take care of their pets! My dog Dougall can be quite energetic and boisterous so I was really apprehensive when looking for someone to walk him when I returned to work full time. Mia’s calm and confident approach completely put my mind at ease and I knew from our first meet and greet that Dougall would be in safe hands with her. Mia is responsible, trustworthy and above all else a genuinely lovely person who clearly loves animals and enjoys taking care of those entrusted to her. Dougall is always so well looked after and so content when I get home from work and I can see from the regular updates I get that he’s had a really good, long walk which is exactly what he needs. I’m so happy we found Mia and I can’t thank her enough for everything she does!

About: I've taken care of family and friends' dogs from a young age. Particularly my grandma's border collie mutt regularly through my teenage years. I have dog-sat amd walked a lovely german shepherd girl in the past. While I'm doing some self-directed study my calendar is wide open for cat care and dog walks :) I'm currently studying on my own part-time schedule so I have plenty of time to take care of pets. I'm available all week though I do need go return to my house to also look after my own fur babies :) I am a naturally quiet person, which works well for introducing myself to new cats. During visits I would feed your pet(s), stay while they enjoy their meal and give them a nice play time once they are finished. My cats keep to separate spaces and I would ensure each pet in the home gets the attention they need.

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.

FAQs for Dog Walking – Oldham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Oldham on Rover is £18.4 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 4,580 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Oldham. 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 Oldham. 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 Oldham.

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.

  • 93% of Walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.

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 4,580 Walkers in Oldham, 45% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.
