About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, including my own and others! I currently have no pets, so I have the time and space to care for yours :) I mostly have experience with dogs, young/old/big/small, but I am open to sitting for other pets as well. Although I don’t have formal training experience, I do enjoy taking time to teach dogs tricks/commands you maybe working on. Majority of my camera roll is my family dog and dogs I see out and about, so you will receive plenty of pics of your happy pet :) I work 3 days a week, so I plan on doing this on my days off when I have the whole day available for your pet! I do not have a set schedule, but I will be sure to update ASAP. I do live in an apartment complex that includes an outdoor dog area that is available for playtime or potty breaks. I also love taking dogs for walks at the beach, parks, or trails!

About: I truly love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I take time to understand their personality and routine so they always feel safe and happy. I have experience with both playful puppies and gentle senior dogs who need extra care. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or meds, I make sure they get the love and attention they deserve — and I always keep you updated with photos and messages! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine — I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals every day. I plan my schedule around walks, playtime, and check-ins so each pet gets my full attention. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, afternoon walks, or evening cuddles, I make sure their needs always come first. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me — it’s something I look forward to every single day. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to keep their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions closely. I give them plenty of love, playtime, and attention while respecting your home and privacy. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, safe, and cozy space where they can relax and feel at ease. I make sure they get daily exercise, cuddles, and lots of affection — just like they would with you. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, safe, and stress-free no matter where they are.

I have a fully fenced yard with a grassy area and plenty of space for dogs to explore and enjoy a nice run. All outdoor time is closely supervised to ensure safety while allowing them to burn off energy and have fun.

About: I am 30 years old, I was the owner of 2 dogs. Sadly one passed away. I have devoted myself to help other owners with their pets, over time I learned the characteristics of dogs, I am patients towards there character and am willing to become the pack leader to have an outcome for a submissive dog. I am in another app as well and I got to be with other dogs who can be so energetic. It is my mission to make them happy and comfortable. I want owners to feel proud of tbem wagging a tail at the end of the day. I hope to meet your dogs and I know they are special to you as they are to me as well. I am a full stay home mom and will always be attentive to your pup! On weekends I attend my church service but come back home to more cuddles! Every pet has freedom in my home and has access to my yard mainly to play and run. If they potty while playing that’s okay it is no problem but mainly they must be able to take potty walks every 4 hours with me on leash. I make sure to feed them and dedicate time to exercise and lots of cuddles! I also want to add, fees will be charged for constant peeing in the home and use of emergency female or male diaper for precaution. Every dog will always like to make their mark. But each dog has their own dominion.

“We had our first meet and greet and walk with Suyoon today, and she was absolutely lovely. She asked thoughtful questions and took a genuine interest in getting to know my dog, Ziggy, and his personality, which I really appreciated. She has a friendly, calm demeanor and immediately put both of us at ease. Suyoon was timely and communicative through the Rover app, which made everything feel seamless and reassuring. Ziggy 🐾 loved her, and that says a lot. I would highly recommend Suyoon to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog walker.”

About: I have experience walking dogs of all sizes, including Great Danes and Chihuahuas. I currently care for my Chihuahua, Phoebe, who has anxiety, so I’m patient and understand the importance of making dogs feel safe and comfortable. I treat every dog with the same love, care, and attention I give my own. I work a desk job 7am-3pm weekdays. Anytime after that I am free for pet sitting/ walking. I love all animals and I love getting my steps in. I can tailor my walks however the client prefers. I allow my dog Phoebe to sniff everything she wants but I’m careful of the surroundings because she is very small.

About: I make sure every walk was filled with fun, fresh air, and lots of tail wags! Ensured dogs got the exercise and attention they needed while keeping them safe and happy. Send updates and cute pictures to owners to keep them connected. I’m more open during the week ( especially the mornings!) than the weekends. I have múltiple dogs on my own so I’m used to the routines. I maintain a structured feeding schedules, plenty of activity, and lots of mental stimulation through toys, enrichment games, and training. Keep a clean living space and monitor their behavior closely to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for every day.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, from energetic German Shepherds and playful Shih Tzus to my beloved Akita who was with me for 13 years. I also have hands-on experience with my fur nephew (a mini schnauzer) mini and standard poodles and maltipoos, so I understand the different temperaments, needs, and quirks of both large and small breeds. My background gives me patience, confidence, and a deep love for caring for pets of all personalities. I know how important trust and reliability are when it comes to your furry family, and I treat every pet like my own - with attention, safety, and plenty of love. I hike and take long walks daily — so dog walking is an extra plus for me with a buddy alongside :) Because I work from home, I’m able to take dogs out for regular walks, provide bathroom breaks on a flexible schedule, and give them plenty of attention throughout the day. I work from home, which allows me to keep a close eye on pets and ensure they’re safe and comfortable at all times. In both my home and a client’s home, I prioritize clear routines, clean spaces, and secure environments. Walks are always on-leash in safe areas, water is always refreshed, and I provide consistent updates so owners feel confident their pets are being treated like family

About: I’m a dog owner myself and currently have a Malshi-Poodle named Cookie. I’ve always enjoyed being around dogs and have experience with different sizes and breeds. When I was younger, I regularly helped walk and care for my uncle’s Golden Retriever and German Shepherd, including taking them to the park. While most of my recent experience has been with my own small dog, I’m comfortable around larger dogs as well. I love walking, being outdoors, and playing with dogs, and I’m happy to give them the exercise, attention, and care they need. I previously worked as a mail carrier, so I’m very used to being on my feet and walking for long periods. I have a pretty flexible schedule right now, so I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, and playtime. I enjoy walking and being active anyway, so spending time outside with your dog is something I’d genuinely enjoy. I’ll make sure your pet is safe and comfortable while they’re with me. I’ll follow any instructions you give me, keep an eye on them during walks or playtime, and make sure they get plenty of attention. I can also send pictures and updates so you know everything’s going good.

About: I’ve cared for family and friends’ pets for years, loving them like my own. I’ve welcomed many animals into my life and even helped find safe, happy homes for those in need. “I provide reliable, loving care with daily photo updates and flexible scheduling. I’m active, patient, and experienced with energetic and senior dogs. Your dog will get safe walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I have plenty of time, patience, and love to give to your fur baby and the attention they deserve and need having a flexible job means I have more than enough time to make time I can care for your pet exactly how you prefer. As someone who had a pet , I understand how stressful it can be to trust someone with your baby — I’m very cautious and protective with my own pets, so yours will be treated the same way.

Patty has been great with my dog Nova! My dog is a nervous girl around new people. Patty took the time to allow nova to slowly warm up to her on their initial visit, and even offered to come over later that night while I was home so she would be in a more comfortable environment if needed. Nova now loves seeing Patty and I’m overall very happy with the service!

We have a chow chow and have an hard time finding someone that our dog likes. She typically is not trusting of other humans and it takes a lot for her to trust people she doesn’t know, but with Daylin something was different she felt super comfortable around her and definitely saw some trust there. I was really shocked because as soon as we gave Daylin the leash she right away went with her and Daylin told us she did great and had a nice time, we were definitely happy and so was our pup. Aside from that Daylin is super nice and provided photos of our pup, a progress report and overall she was just really great. I am definitely happy we got Daylin. She’s awesome and our pup chica gives her two paws up!

We are so glad we came across Su! Before booking her services, we did a meet-and-greet, and Obi liked her from day one. Not only Obi, but all of our fur babies at home warmed up to her immediately. Su followed all of our instructions carefully, and what I appreciated most were the photo updates and regular check-ins while we were away. We are beyond happy with her service and truly can’t say enough great things about her. I was a little skeptical at first about trying the app, but I’m so glad I did. Obi absolutely fell in love with Su and already misses her. We definitely found our person, and we’re excited to book with her many more times in the future. Thank you so much, Suyoon!

FAQs for Dog Walking - West Athens

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in West Athens is $12 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $28 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 20,581 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across West Athens. 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 West Athens. 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 West Athens 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 West Athens. On Rover:

  • 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
