Rosalind helped pur friends with walks whilst they looked after our lovely dog. She went out of her way to be helpful and communicative with us all. Even though the dig was with friends, she updated us too so we had absolute peace of mind. She was fab and I wouldn't hesitate to leave Charley with her again 💕

About: I always wanted dogs growing up, and have often cared for friends’ pets when needed, and when I moved to Whiston I finally got the chance to have one full time - my ex-partner’s family dog needed to move, and we took him in. As we’re no longer together I don’t have him any more, and I would love to be able to give the care and attention to pets who need a home from home. I’m comfortable administering mediation (the dog mentioned took 4 different tablets, twice a day) and promise to always provide them with as many walks, playtime and treats as they want (treats within moderation obviously)! My work is hybrid so I’m able to be at home a lot, and I would never commit to taking in a pet if there was a chance I couldn’t be at home with them all the time. When working from home I can be flexible to ensure I can match your pets normal routine as closely as possible. They’ll also provide me with the perfect distraction to procrastinate! Although the back garden is unfenced, I would never leave your pet there unsupervised. I do have a fenced and gated front driveway. I would stick to your usual routine as closely as possible - pets are allowed wherever they are comfiest in my house, so they’d have full and complete roam of the house to make sure they found their most comfy spot! I’ll send photos and updates every day to let you know how they’re doing and what we’ve been up to for your peace of mind!

About: I've studied animal management at college which I hold a HND (Higher National Diploma) qualification for. I did animal behaviour, training, welfare and ethics etc. I did work experience in a kennels, so I am used to dog walking, cleaning up after dogs, feeding etc. I can work with senior animals, adults, puppies etc. I work with dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles and invertebrates. I work part time as a carer at my home for my autistic brother. However I take bookings based on what ones I already have on (so long as the pet owner doesn't mind me popping out from time to time then I'll take it on) We have fencing to keep our dogs in the garden. In someone else's home I'd keep windows shut, doors locked unless going out, and only walk your pets in areas you advise as safe for peace of mind.

About: Hello! We are Gypsy and Mark, and we live for animal care and welfare. Gypsy is an expert in cat care, with a lifetime of general cat care experience and over 15 years in cat rescue and rehabilitation. This means she can administer medication expertly, is patient and understanding of timid and nervous cats, and skilled in feline health and hygiene. Having also previously volunteered at a number of veterinary clinics in and around Birmingham before she moved to Yorkshire, she also has experience in caring for rodents, birds, reptiles and some farm animals. She will travel anywhere for the chance to look after animals, and we have our own car. Mark is a gentle giant, retired and adores all animals regardless of their species. He is more the playful-spend-time type, while Gypsy takes care of the animal's needs (food, litter trays, hygiene care etc). He keeps a calm head in stressful situations, can deal with small handy-man type jobs, and also has a lifetime experience with a variety of animals including cats and avians. Both of us are non-drinkers and non-smokers. We don't eat meat, so we won't be preparing or bringing meat into your home except for your pets or upon your request. We will observe and respect any religious requirements when in your home, and we both enjoy exploring and seeing new places. We're a very quiet couple. rarely having the TV on if at all, unless the pets need this as some do. There won't be any issues with noise from us in regards to neighbours, thin walls and nervous animals. We can provide an up to date DBS check upon request. We have a large SUV, perfect for any size dog and multiples. We have reputable seatbelt-harness straps but feel free to provide your own for peace of mind. We carry a pet safe first aid kit that we've built up ourselves, with pet-safe antiseptic and bug repellents, just in case of any oopsies or frolicking in the irresistible long grass. We are very cautious with walks with long grass in the spring and summer, however, and we thoroughly check any pets in our care for ticks daily and after walks. Gypsy holds diplomas in Animal Psychology, and, Petsitting and Dogwalking. She is working on a Level 3 Animal Care course from Oxbridge. We are making our way in the world by offering exceptional petsitting and housesitting services. Petsitting IS our routine, with one of us being retired (Mark) and the other petsitting professionally, we have teamed up to make a fantastic team. We both have bags of patience and understanding, both educationally and practically and, if we may say so, through pure common sense. We will follow your instructions to the letter if you have a specific routine, or, we will learn your pet's language fast enough understand *their* routine. Rest assured, discretion is at the heart of our mission. Sensitive information of any kind will not go beyond us, messages will be taken discreetly without informing the other party of your absence. We have experience providing discreet and reliable pet care services for high-profile clients, maintaining confidentiality and professionalism at all times. Also - Gypsy loves jetwashers. If you have a jetwash, and want your patio or house or pool or entire dang street jetwashed, she's all over it.

About: I’ve had dogs of one sort or another all my life. They have been my constant source of support, company and joy. Now retired after years working from home I am walking dogs for those that need help and support. I am now retired, after years of working from home and looking after the family’s various dogs, cats and assorted weird and wonderful pets. As a retiree, I really don’t have a schedule. As always my dogs dictate my day and we try to be flexible with each other. I really am free to meet the needs of my customers and will always negotiate a way to help. My dogs and cats share my home. I keep them fed and watered and cared for and loved. I consider them my friends and family. I will treat your animals with the same care and consideration.

I currently work nights so my days are free to give you the satisfaction of knowing your dog is taken care of, walked, fed and loved. My partner (Carys) also works along side me so we have 24/7 availability. I have a fully fenced off garden, with plenty of room to run and play. Our full attention will be given to providing the safest and most calm enviroment.

About: I have a pet dog who we raised back home in the south who I raised since he was 6 weeks. We trained him to do above average levels of commands until his illness took root and we had to reduce the exercise he had. But always able to provide fun and friendly care for animals! I’m currently not working so I’m available all day and weekends of daycare, boarding or pet sitting. I’m an outdoorsy person and couple so walks will always be common with any services. I have a ground floor pet friendly apartment with a riverside greenery area just outside common with city suburbs dog walkers for socialising, walks and playtime

About: I am a huge dog lover and have been taking care of them professionally for the last few years but have had pups my entire life. I have lots of experience of walking and caring for all different kinds of doggos, big and small, with various needs and personalities. I promise to care for your fur babies as I do my own, with lots of love and play and will give them a home away from home where they can relax and feel comfortable. I’m currently fully available for walks any day of the week. Whether this be for a regular same time walk or a last minute one off. I would treat your pets just like I treat my own, with lots of love and play. I am used to caring for dogs of all ages, I recently lost my Peaches at the age of 12, she had a push chair and needed extra time on her walks. Whilst my Pru at age 3 and Folly at 10 months are both full of energy and zoomies.

About: Both myself and my partner Matt have grown up with dogs all our life. Up until August 2025, we also had a Samoyed who unfortunately passed away. Max is a highly energetic dog who loves to play so we’ve got more than enough experience with him alone. Our garden is fully fenced off and quite large so lots of space for your pets to run around! We also live close to Waverley lakes so have lots of great walks nearby! We already walk Max each day so what’s the harm in one more!? We have an 12 year old son who absolutely adores animals so is very excited to join us on this venture and give your pet all the love! We also have a newborn baby. Currently Matt works Monday to Friday so ideally we keep to boarding on the weekend so that we are both available for your pets. I am currently on maternity so I’m happy and available to do drop in visits and walks during the week. Myself & my partner Matt will be looking after your pets so you’ll have both of us to provide that extra care. Feel free to ask any further questions you need! Matt works Monday to Friday whilst I’m currently on maternity leave. Our preference is to board on a weekend as we are both available to look after your pets. I am available for drop in visits throughout the whole week. We have a secure garden and we have a dog to offer your pet lots of play time if wanted! We are happy to crate your dog if needed but you will need to provide the crate.

Marie and Tony provided exceptionally professional walking services, keeping me updated with regular photos while I was away. Since my Akita is naturally cautious and stubborn with strangers—especially males—I was thrilled at how quickly he warmed up to Tony. I highly recommend them and will certainly use their services again - Axl will be looking forward to it. Thanks to both of you.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and spending time outdoors, so dog walking is something I genuinely enjoy rather than just a job. Whether it’s a relaxed stroll, a long adventure, or exploring new routes, I’m happiest with a four-legged friend by my side! 🌿🐕 I’m an active, caring, and reliable person who will always match the pace, personality, and energy of the dog I’m with—whether they’re full of zoomies or prefer taking life one sniff at a time. A little about my experience 🦴 I’ve had dogs for over 10 years and have regularly cared for the pets of family and friends, so I’m comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and routines. I also have a Labrador of my own, so I know all about the energetic, slightly chaotic “crazy dog” moments! Whether your dog loves to run, play fetch, swim, or simply curl up for cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved throughout our time together. Every dog is unique, so I’ll always take the time to get to know their routine, personality, and what makes them happiest. ❤️ I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages 📸 so you can relax knowing your best friend is having a great time. I’m currently working part-time, so I’m able to offer flexible availability Monday- Wednesday. I am happy to provide morning, afternoon, and evening drop-in visits where possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I make sure to follow all care instructions closely, keep pets secure during walks and visits, and provide a calm and caring environment while you’re away.

Alex was very generous during our first walk and meet-and-greet. He took the time to listen carefully to Fred’s needs and to the type of training we want him to continue with. It’s clear that Alex is confident working with large and power breeds. We will definitely continue booking walks with him, and so far we are very satisfied.

About: I’ve grown up with animals and currently have one dog and three cats, so caring for pets is just part of my everyday life. I’m used to the little messes, the different personalities, and the routines that come with them, and I genuinely enjoy it. Being around animals feels natural to me, and I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable handling whatever comes up. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. I’ve recently graduated from university and am currently based at home, which means I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout most of the week and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets, whether that’s regular check-ins, longer stays, or last-minute needs. While I’m not able to board pets in my own home, I’m very happy to care for them in the place they feel safest in your home. I understand how important it is for pets to stay in their usual environment and routine, especially when their owners are away. I can stay in your home to provide consistent care and companionship, or carry out regular check-ins to make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and doing well. I’ll always treat your home and your pets with respect, and make sure you feel updated and reassured while you’re away.

About: Ever since I can remember dogs were a big part of the family! And that has never changed! As a pet owner (dog and hamsters) I know how important it is that our pets get the care and attention they need and that we are there when they need us! I would love to give your pet (and mine!) the attention they need when you have important things to do! :-) I work remotely so I have availability to do dog walks and drop in visits throughout the day and evenings. I like a good early start with Willow (my Shiba Inu) before starting my day. I love to spend time and socialising my Shiba with other pets (dogs and cats alike) whenever possible! She gets along with other dogs once comfortable and also happy to do the walks with just your dog if you prefer!

Megan immediately put me at ease with her professionalism and attention to detail. She is clearly a very experienced dog owner, and I was confident in leaving my dog Shakti in her care. Shakti can be reactive to other dogs. However, Megan provided a detailed report on her overall behaviour and some valuable suggestions to try to alleviate her reactivity. I would be happy to leave Shakti in her care again. Thanks again.

We hired Kim last minute to walk our reactive rescue Barney, and she was kind enough to fit us in with only a couple of days notice. We asked for a meet and greet which she was happy to do and went fine, although she didn’t seem to notice Barneys signs of anxiety such as lip licking and whale eyes. Our only criticism of Kim was that she brought someone else along on her walk with Barney, without informing us prior. In her original message she said it would be just her and Barney as he is a nervous dog around new people. We did raise this with her, and she was apologetic that she forgot to mention her wife comes along on weekends. We’d recommend Kim if you have a dog who doesn’t have any major issues 😊

I booked Kim to walk my rescue dog Nay, Nay has had a really tough life with lots of nervousness around people and other dogs. I was really impressed that Kim not only suggested a meet & greet but also a trial walk with herself and myself to ensure all went well. I felt really at ease with Kim she knew how to get Nay to respond on our trial walk, Nay was completely focused on her the entire time and the usual chaos walk I’m used to was completely different. I was more than happy to then let Kim and Nay go off together and enjoy there walk. Nay came back exhausted and happy she even tried to follow Kim to the car to go home with her. I’ve never known her to take to someone so well and I now can be at ease knowing Nay is being walked while I’m at work by someone who is so easily to get along with. Very friendly young woman with lots of knowledge and nothing was too much trouble. I had to change the time at short notice and Kim made me feel like it was no trouble at all. I would recommend her without a doubt.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Rotherham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Rotherham on Rover is £13.8 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,833 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rotherham. 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 Rotherham. 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 Rotherham.

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 3,833 Walkers in Rotherham, 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.
