About: Hi, I'm Terrie! I'm the person your pets will accidentally like more than you and may file a formal complaint when I leave. Don't worry, they'll still be thrilled when you come home! I'm basically a part time butler, snack distributor, belly rub technician, professional poop scooper, personal paparazzi and a humble servant to whichever four legged CEO is currently in charge. If it has paws, claws, wings, or a personality bigger than its body, I'm probably going to adore it. Pet care is truly a family affair in our home. My family is very hands on and shares my love of animals, which means your pets get plenty of extra attention, affection, care, and at least three separate rounds of “who’s the cutest?” commentary. I’m the proud human of 2 huskies, 10 cats, 2 chameleons, and a fish crew - so chaos, cuddles, and a little bit of fur are basically my normal. In our house, dishing out treats is an Olympic sport, and I am absolutely going for gold. I’ve mastered the art of negotiating with pups and earning cat approval. My mission? Keep tails wagging, whiskers twitching, and pet parents completely worry free. I'll send plenty of updates, lots of adorable photos, and return your pets happy, loved, and only slightly convinced they've hired me as their new personal assistant. New Pet Friends = Mandatory Meet & Sniff! 🐾 I have one tiny rule: every new pet friend gets a meet & greet before we make things official. I like to let your pet decide if I'm worthy of joining their staff, and hopefully earning a tail wag, nose boop, or dramatic cat stare of approval. It's the perfect time to learn their routines, favorite treats, secret hiding spots, and any adorable quirks - so when booking day arrives - we're already best buds! Travel Policy: If you're more than 15 miles away, there's a $10 travel fee per visit will be added to help keep my gas tank as happy as your pets. I have an embarrassingly open schedule. Rain? No problem. Sunshine? Even better. I'll happily brave the weather for potty breaks, neighborhood adventures, epic games of fetch, or a cuddle session worthy of an Olympic medal. Your pets set the agenda - I'm just their very enthusiastic assistant. Life loves to throw curveballs, so I do my best to accommodate last minute schedule changes whenever I can. Whether you're stuck at work, planning a spontaneous getaway, or your meeting magically turned into "one more hour," I've got you covered. Big, small, fluffy, scaly, feathery, or suspiciously crunchy - I love them all. I've cared for everything from tarantulas and snakes to rabbits and hedgehogs, so I don't scare easy. Your pet will be treated like royalty, spoiled beyond reason, and lovingly convinced this is their all inclusive vacation resort. Belly rubs? Unlimited. Snacks? Duh. Personal fan club? Already formed. I'll happily accept my role as their humble servant while they run the household.

About: I’ve always had a passion for nature and animals you can find me taking my dog out on a trail hike every weekend! I’ve had multiple dogs in my life and know how to handle a variety of breeds (border collies, terriers, and larger dogs.) Animals are angels in my eyes and I hope to be able to take care of your angel and give you peace of mind and a carefree day! I currently attend LSU, so my schedule fluctuates depending what my classes require or if I have a test scheduled or even acting performance. Currently, I attend LSU on Tuesdays & Thursdays! I’m highly committed to my studies in wildlife conservation and resource management! I prefer not to host dogs in my house due to being a college student, but the app requires a response to be a sitter.

About: I have been the go-to professional and friend for pet care and house-sitting for many. My goal is always to give your pet and home the same care and consideration I would my own. I have had pets since I can remember. My first pet was a jet black cat resembling the color of a raven. I learned and practiced numerous pet care tactics which allowed my cat to live a very fruitful life to 20 years old. I also had a delightful Bischon with a spunky personality that was always the life of the party. I am no stranger to large size or senior age pets, but am also well acquainted with service dogs. I have experience with pigs, fishes, snails, but my most favorite of all horses! I truly enjoy engaging with furry loved ones and giving them the tender care they obviously deserves! I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give your fur baby lots of attentive care, playtime, and mental stimulation by providing activity throughout the day. I have a fenced-in yard with ample space and love to go for strolls around the neighborhood and local parks. I love to play games and engage throughout the day.

About: Hi! My name is Shayna Malonson, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals—especially dogs. I grew up with dogs my entire life, and now as an adult with my own home, I’m lucky to have two of my own: Ally (4 years old) and King (2 years old). They are a huge part of my daily life and have taught me so much about responsible, loving care. I personally bathe my dogs, brush their teeth, and handle their basic grooming after learning how to properly care for them myself. Through experience—especially managing my older dog’s dry skin—I’ve learned a lot about different dog food brands, skin-care products, and overall dog wellness. This has helped me become very attentive to each dog’s individual needs. In my free time, I enjoy playing fetch, going on simple walks, and giving my dogs plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I would love the opportunity to care for your dogs as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m home often and able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to plan feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest periods without rushing. I build my day around the dogs in my care, making sure they receive regular supervision, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s morning and evening routines, midday check-ins, or overnight care, I’m flexible and dependable. I enjoy keeping pets on a steady schedule so they feel comfortable and secure I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, dogs are treated like family and are always supervised. I make sure the space is clean, pet-safe, and free from hazards, with plenty of room for rest, play, and comfort. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m experienced with basic grooming care such as bathing and brushing, and I pay close attention to skin sensitivity, diet needs, and overall well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I never leave pets unattended outside. Trust and communication are very important to me. I provide updates, photos, and messages so owners feel confident and at ease while their pets are in my care. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: All the Doggies sleep with me in my bed! They are allowed on furniture & anywhere they’d like to be comfortable. I worked for Companion Animal alliance in Baton Rouge working with dogs & cats as a caretaker. I mobile groom for people around the Livingston parish area & I’m well known on the nextdoor app. I have a bunch of references! I am very passionate about your fur babies & one day will open up my own business building for grooming/boarding & as new clients you would be adding to my fund for that. It has been my life long dream to accomplish this one day & I am going to keep working towards that. I want to expand this business into something much bigger & for people to feel at ease with leaving your babies in the care of someone who will love them unconditionally. All you have to bring for your baby is their dog food/cat food. I have dog/cat bowls, leashes, toys, puppy pads, litter boxes, litter, cat toys, cat/dog beds, ( I supply dog treats ) I do not put the babies in kennels unless instructed to do so by you if you bring your own. At bed time I put on relaxing music for the dogs to calm down & sleep, heating pads for cold nights, lots of blankets & beds. Any of their comfort items I would suggest bring with them. I do live in a new trailer, lots of room for your babies to roam & play! non smoker. I have experience with large dogs to small dogs, senior dogs & ones with bad anxiety or kennel aggressive ect. I also have experience with birds, especially parrots. I know how to handle in any situation when it comes to different behaviors from animals. I am also pit bull friendly 💕 The babies I board/doggy daycare have FREE ROAM. Which means they can go as they please anywhere in my home, they can sleep with me or they can sleep on the couches or their beds, but If you prefer your baby in a kennel at night, I will respect your wishes. I only have one kennel designated just for that.. You will receive lots of pictures/videos & updates to the point where it may be a little annoying but you’ll never have to text me first checking on them. I give them lots of love! I stay home everyday with the babies, so they will get all of the attention they need. The night before pick up/drop offs, I do give them a bath, each one no matter what. I can pick your dog up or drop them off, I have never had an issues with any dogs fighting, running off or accidents. I am VERY experienced in RUNNERS, the ones who wait for you to open the door to escape. Never had a runner succeed in getting away. I can clip your babies nails & give them a little trim if need be free of charge. If your dog needs medication I can administer it to them at the times needed. Prozac, prednisone, insulin, antibiotics ect, I’m familiar with all. Thank you for taking the time to read this & hopefully you have found the right sitter for your baby/babies. 🐶 I bring the babies to the dog park twice a week along with water treats & toys. I can manage 5 at a time ( leashed ) I do have a fenced in yard with a doggy pool, it’s covered & has pet turf. Lots of room for your baby to play!! This is what I do for a living! I eat breathe & sleep doggies. I stay home full time & when I say full time it’s me & the pups home everyday. I LOVE & taking care of your 4 legged sweetie pies, when you book with me it will allow me to continue to care for the fur babies & accomplish my life long dream to open up a bigger place to care for more. 💕 I truly appreciate repeat customers, but with inflation the way that it is, the cost of gas being so high, I had to make the difficult decision to raise my prices up to $2 more since last year. I understand if you choose to look elsewhere for services, but I hope that you choose to continue to use me. & for new clients ❤️ I have a small male dachshund that gets along with animals & kids very well! I am 100% committed to your pets to make them & you comfortable with my services. I treat my clients babies just like I would my baby!

About: I have owned and lived with dogs and cats my whole life. I have 3 fur babies who are spoiled and well-loved, Mylo the Siberian Husky (2 years old), Lily the sweet mix breed rescue (6 years old), and Baxter the Dachshund Beagle rescue (7 years old) and 1 fur nephew, Rufus the Corgi (3 years old) who frequently stays with his cousins and auntie to play. We love the dog park, long walks (Mylo especially), and couch snuggles/naps. They enjoy chasing each other in the backyard and to birdwatch/neighborhood watch from the living room windows. I have experience with many breeds and all ages. Having two rescues myself I am also comfortable with rescue dogs who may need more time to warm up and trust you. I also love cats and have always had one-I just don’t currently have one. Fur babies aren’t just pets-they are family. I work from home with a very flexible schedule. I am available for walks, drop ins, and boarding any day of the week or weekend. I can come to you! I have a fenced yard and 3 fur babies who are dog friendly and love to play! I am happy to use crates if that is preferred. While I don’t mind your dog staying here with us, I am also able to come to your dog in your home if that is more comfortable.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Walker

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Walker is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $24 per walk. On Rover, 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 551 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Walker. Enter your ZIP code 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-on-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 Walker. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood 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 poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Walker 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.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program 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 is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Walker. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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 have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have 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 are 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 will have a chance to walk 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
