“Willow loves her walks with Colleen. Colleen is very attentive to this senior Great Dane and her ability to take long or short walks. Colleen is very flexible with my schedule-some weeks I need her 3 days per week, and other weeks I need her to walk Willow 2times a day each weekday. I highly recommend Colleen.”

“Very recently I asked Pam to walk my dog over lunch since I had a last-minute obligation. She was able to accommodate us and sent us several great pictures of our dog. Pam is definitely the best dog walker I’ve experienced on rover.com”

About: I have always been the person that friends, neighbors and family have called on to watch their pets. I personally have had dogs, cats and a bird . Two of my dogs had ACL surgery so I am familiar with the care that is needed after such a procedure. I am a retired MRI tech and would love to walk , play, care for and spend time with your furry family members. I am retired now and an empty nester- both children and pets. My husband and I have started traveling a bit now that we have the time, which is why we have not gotten another pet right now. I miss having a furry companion around and want to love on yours! I am available most of the time for walks or visits. Flexible for your needs. Live in Marshall Township close to Sewickly Farms and Cranberry Mall. Available for your spring break or summer vacations , work trips or any other getaways . Happy to meet and discuss your requirements. I am currently not caring for pets in my home. Will come to your home and walk or let your dog out into your yard and follow whatever instructions and requirements you have.

About: Hi, I’m Joceline! I’m a lifelong dog and cat lover who knows that every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members while you’re away. I work remotely full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for drop-in visits and walks. During each visit, I’ll make sure your pet gets exactly what they need, whether that’s a walk, potty break, fresh water, meals, medication, playtime, cuddles, or simply some company. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality to help them feel safe and comfortable. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of your home. You’ll also receive plenty of photos and updates after each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: to provide dependable, personalized care while making sure your pet feels loved and comfortable until you’re home again. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family! I work remotely full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the day. I always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and provide dependable, consistent care. I respect your home and your pet’s routine as if they were my own. I’ll carefully follow all instructions, make sure your pet is safe and comfortable, and always leave your home just as I found it. You’ll also receive detailed updates and plenty of photos after every visit.

About: Hello! I'm a long time dog sitter who took a few years hiatus while starting a family. I have a high energy but aging Vizsla (Cooper), a new to the family rescue shiba inu (Winston), two young children (4, 1) and a husband who works from home most days. I love all animals but have a special place in my heart for dogs. I would love to treat your pet like family while you are away! Why I love dog sitting I have always loved dogs, ever since I was a little girl. Some of my earliest memories are me snuggling and playing with my first dog, a beautiful black lab named Winchester. I had years with a beloved boxer named Ebony that mark most of my childhood and the best Christmas I ever had was when my parents surprised me with Lionel, our family goldendoodle, as a puppy. I have grown up with dogs and can't imagine a life without a furry friend in it. My experience administering medication I'm a nurse practitioner so I regularly deal with medications and would be willing to help your pet as long as I am given proper instructions on how to give the medication safely! I work full time but have some flexibility with my hours. My husband works from home most days so your pup would generally have one of us home to play with them and care for them while you are away. We have young children so we are rarely out long or late! I have a large fenced back yard with plenty of space for your pup to play with mine! I take safety very seriously and monitor all playtime between your dog and mine.

About: I grew up with two dogs in Florida, so I have experience with walking, feeding, and taking care of them. If my friends need a dog sitter, I am always around to help them out. My current family dog has resource guarding, so I have experience with dogs that have behavioral issues as well. I miss having a dog of my own in Pittsburgh, so I would love to help out with yours! My schedule is flexible. I can guarantee that I am free Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays to meet your needs. I am usually available on Tuesdays and Thursdays as well. I am able to help out in your home to care for your dogs. I am able to follow any instructions that you give me. I am a very detail oriented and conscientious person, so you can rely on me to take care of your pet (walking, feeding, exercise, water). I am happy to communicate with you throughout the visit as well!

About: For the past seven years, I had the privilege of sharing my life with my dog, Agatha, whom I adopted when she was around seven years old. She recently passed away at an estimated 14 years old after battling cancer. Caring for Agatha, especially during the last few months of her life, taught me patience, compassion, and how to meet a dog exactly where they are. As she got older, she needed more hands-on support. Whether it was helping her stand, carrying her when her body wouldn't cooperate (all 55 pounds of her!), or hand-feeding her because that's how she was most comfortable, I learned that every dog has unique needs and deserves care that respects their personality. Agatha was fiercely independent, so I always tried to give her as much dignity and choice as possible while making sure she felt safe and loved. While I'm not ready to adopt another dog just yet, I truly miss having one in my life. That's what brought me to Rover. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet, whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion nearby. I live in an apartment with easy access to outdoor walking paths, sidewalks, and a nearby dog park, making it easy to provide plenty of exercise, fresh air, and opportunities to explore. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in loving hands. I own a local fitness studio, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. Most weekdays, I'm available between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for walks, drop-in visits, or spending quality time with pets. My mornings typically begin around 8:00 a.m., and I'm at my studio from approximately 9:00–11:00 a.m. and again from 4:00–7:00 p.m. Because I have flexibility throughout the day, I can provide regular potty breaks, exercise, meals, and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys an active walk, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care while you're away. I know that every pet is different, so my first priority is getting to know your dog's routine, personality, and any special needs before their stay or visit. I'll follow your instructions closely, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, favorite walking routes, or little routines that help your pet feel comfortable. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm environment with plenty of attention, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and a comfortable place to rest. I live in an apartment with easy access to sidewalks, green space, and a nearby dog park for dogs who enjoy socializing (only with your permission). If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own while keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Above all, my goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

About: I've had a tremendous love for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I cared for a guinea pig, a hamster, and two Flemish Giant rabbits, which helped me develop an understanding of the importance of proper care. Over the years, I have also dog-sat and cat-sat for friends and family many times, making sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I truly love animals and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets. I can work pet care into my daily routine and prioritize making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes so their pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their usual routines. I follow each owner's instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other specific needs. I love giving pets plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m also happy to keep owners updated while they’re away so they can have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands!

About: I currently live in Plum with my family and our 7 year old Golden Retriever, Zeke. We are very active and walk several miles a day. I grew up taking care of dogs, and I love taking care of my mom's Golden Retriever and brother's Pitbull when they are busy. Although my experience is mostly with medium/large dogs, I have dog sat for many small dogs too. I know how important it is for your pet to be active, social, and well cared for. I can feed, give medication, and transport your dog if necessary. I live an active lifestyle and would love to run, walk, or hike with your dog! I require very thorough instructions and a meet and greet before taking care of your dog to make sure it's a good match. I will provide you with as many updates as you would like, and I am happy to answer your questions any time. Contact me to learn more and learn my availability. I work full-time, but I work remotely and have a flexible schedule so I am able to accommodate the needs of you and your pet! At my house, I will treat your dog like my own! Your dog will go outside and on walks 3-4 times per day. They may go to the dog park a few times a week, or at your discretion.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life so caring for them has always been second nature to me. I have hands on experience caring for them through all stages of life from energetic puppies to senior dogs. As a college student on break, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on pet care. Without classes or campus commitments, I can dedicate my time to regular walks. For dog walking, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid unsafe areas, and keep walks at a pace that’s comfortable for each dog. Clear communication with owners helps ensure trust and peace of mind every step of the way.

About: Throughout high school, I dog sat multiple times for people in my neighborhood. I have been around dogs and cats my whole life including owning my own and constantly being around my family and friends pets. I just graduated college this May, and I’m 22 years old.

About: I have been dog sitting for over 3 years and have experience caring for a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages. I am also a sitter with Freedom Paws, where I care for service dogs when their raisers are in class or at work. Many of these dogs are puppies under one year old, so I help reinforce their training, including basic obedience, socialization, and leash manners. In addition, I have experience dog sitting and house sitting for families, caring for dogs with a variety of needs. I am comfortable caring for puppies and can administer medications according to owners' instructions to help ensure pets stay healthy and comfortable while in my care. I work full-time on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday mornings. However, I am available all day on Tuesdays, Thursday mornings until noon, and Fridays after 2:00 PM. I also have weekends completely free and am comfortable providing overnight and weekend pet sitting when needed. I offer in-home pet sitting so your pet can stay relaxed in the comfort of their own home. I take time to learn each pet's routine and preferences, ensuring they receive consistent care, exercise, affection, and attention. I am reliable, respectful of your home, and happy to provide updates and photos throughout my stay so you always know how your pet is doing!

About: Hello!! I've had my own cat since 2017 and am an avid stray feeder (and occasional trapper). I also volunteer at Kitty Queen Cat Rescue at least 2 days a week, usually doing morning cat care (but sometimes you can find me there during open hours). I feed all of the cats, replace water, scoop litter boxes, clean up whatever I might find, and give medication when needed. I encounter all different types of personalities and customize my approach to each one. I've been volunteering there since October 2025. I've also been pet sitting personally to friends since I was a teenager. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of animals and building trust with them, especially the shy ones. Truly nothing makes me happier than scooping 20 litter boxes with cats all around me. I also regularly take care of my friend's dog who is a spunky and reactive, but very sweet, terrier mix. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to my own cat, so I will understand if you need consistent pictures or a FaceTime call to calm your nerves! I once drove home in a blizzard because I couldn't see my cat on my cameras (she was completely fine). I'm also working on getting my Fear Free Pet Sitter Certification as I believe in preventing as much fear, anxiety, and stress as possible in all pets. Furthermore, I don't believe in assigning spite or malice to any animals. They are all innocent creatures to me. <3 I'm currently only working part-time so I have a lot of time to take care of your pets!! I can do mornings, afternoons, evenings, etc. One of the things I pride myself on is not only taking care of your pet like I would my own, but also your home. I'm a neat freak so I promise to leave it better than I found it! My least favorite part of taking a trip is coming home knowing my apartment would be a mess due to my cat sitter just not really caring. Not with me!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Warrendale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Warrendale is $16 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $25 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 November 2026, there are 2,371 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Warrendale. 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 Warrendale. 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 Warrendale 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 Warrendale. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
