“We booked Hannah to walk our dog Loki all week whilst I was away on a work trip and my partner struggled to balance our 10 week old baby and walking Loki. Hannah created such a great bond with Loki straight away and after a couple of days he was sat waiting by the door for her to arrive at 10am! Clearly very experienced and loves spending time with dogs - would 100% recommend, and seeing daily pictures of Loki having a great time gave me peace of mind whilst away from home. Will be our go-to for any boarding/walking requirements in the future”
About: Both my husband and I have always had animals in our lives and it is a love we continue to share with our dog, Bailey. A house is not a home without the sound of little (or big) paws following you around. As a family, we love exploring new places to walk and frequently find ourselves on bike rides and walks! Rest assured, your pooch will not be bored at any point during their stay. We are available for boarding Friday through to Sunday with minimal limitations, making weekend trips away stress free for your family. We are happy to consider boarding in the week but both my husband and I work in the week however I often work from home so this would be discussed on an ad-hoc basis depending on the circumstances. We have a secure garden that is big enough to run around and let all the zoomies out! We also are very lucky to live on the back of a very big park!! We are happy to crate your pup if provided. Our dog loves company and there are no off-limit zones in our house with doggy cuddles on the sofa and sleepovers upstairs (unless of course you would prefer to reflect what you do at home which is absolutely fine!)
About: I have had family dogs ever since I was a baby, grown up with Staffordshire bull terriers. Have since had Labrador/collies now currently have a 5 year old lurcher. Love taking long walks with my dog, he loves other dogs and happily accepts them into our house. Please get in touch if you need help with your dog wether it's just a one off or on a regular basis I'll be happy to help and can't wait to meet them. I don't work anymore so I am very flexible for dog walks, home visits and boarding. Let me know what you need and I will try and accommodate. I have a full enclosed back garden and a fur baby to keep your dog company and to play zoomies with around the garden. I am around almost all day to feed, walk, play and look after them. Also have a dog flap fitted so they have the freedom to come and go into the garden as and when needed

About: I am a licensed security dog handler and also own 4 large breed dogs myself which I have trained to a high standard. Owning working dogs too, I am very capable of handling all breeds of dogs. I am happy to accept dogs with behavioural issues, lack of manners, lead pulling or reactivity. These are all things I have experienced and overcame with some of my own dogs and foster dogs in the past. I own a Belgian Malinois who is my working security dog, so I also understand that high drive dogs may not be fulfilled with just a walk around the block. I can offer enrichment and fulfilment sessions to suit the individual dog. I am fully insured, DBS checked and first aid trained. My insurance is also inclusive of banned breeds, I specifically chose this due to me having 2 XL Bullys myself so you have peace of mind that I’m fully aware of the exemption rules and these will be followed at all times. Please be aware any exempt dogs will need to be a 1:1 ratio dog to handler at all times. I offer both group walks and solo walks, adventure days, house sitting, pop ins and overnight stays. I currently only work part time and I am self employed so I’m able to change my work schedule to fit around the dogs in my care. I have a house with a large secure garden, situated in a very small village in the countryside. I am able to keep my own dogs completely separate from any other dogs.

“Paul has been great with Marley, she always loves when he visits and we love the updates. She even gets excited when we say Paul's coming to see her. Thank you for taking care of our little old lady.”
About: I spent 14 years caring for my own Labrador, so I understand the daily rhythm dogs and cats need — regular walks, feeding times, and plenty of attention. Alongside that, I've helped friends and neighbours look after their dogs and cats whenever they've gone on holiday, covering everything from walks and feeding to daily drop-in visits to check in, play, and keep them company. I know how much peace of mind it gives you to know your pet is in safe, familiar hands while you're away. Whether it's a daily walk, a feeding visit, or a full day of company, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, consistency, and genuine care. I'm based in Stoke-on-Trent. I'm happy to discuss your pet's specific routine and needs before we get started. My schedule gives me great flexibility for regular care. On Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I'm free all day and can offer morning, midday, or evening dog walks, along with drop-in visits at any time that suits you. Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I'm at university, so I'm generally available in the evening. On weekends, I'm available in the afternoons around my work schedule. I'm happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet's routine. For dogs, I focus on giving them plenty of exercise with long walks, along with lots of playtime and attention throughout the visit. For cats, I bring that same energy minus the walks — spending time playing, engaging with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and looked after while their owners are away. Whether it's a quick drop-in or a longer visit, my goal is to make sure every pet gets genuine attention, not just the basics.
About: I am a qualified Dog Trainer, with a BSc in Canine Behaviour. I have cared for family friends and neighbours dogs and even cute puppies! I’m currently volunteering part time but happy to adjust, depending on timings and owners’ preferences for their dogs. Ensuring dogs are happy and healthy! 1. I will ensure the environment is safe and secure on arrival and departure. 2. Making sure the dog(s) are okay and not stressed.
About: I have had dogs as pets pretty much all my life when living at home. Now that I live alone having a dog of my own wouldn’t work due to my job and working away. I would really love to still be able to look after dogs for other people and still get time with yours 😅 I currently work 2 on 4 off which means I’m away for 2 whole days sometimes 3 but back home for 4 so I have alot of free time. I live in a secure 2 bed flat but my estate has a lot of greenery where they can be out and about doing lots of walking.

FAQs for Dog Walking – Stafford
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Stafford on Rover is £14 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £8 and £22 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 2,328 Walkers on Rover offering Dog Walking across the city of Stafford. About 78% 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 Stafford. 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 Stafford 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Walking. With 2,328 Walkers in Stafford, 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.
