About: Having grown up with several dogs, I've developed a lifelong love for animals and an understanding of their needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience looking after and walking other people's dogs and pets, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I've always had a love for animals and enjoy spending time outdoors, making dog walking the perfect way for me to combine both passions. I am dependable, attentive, and dedicated to ensuring every dog receives the exercise, care, and affection they deserve. As a recent college graduate, I have full availability this summer before starting my first teaching position in the fall, making me a reliable and flexible option for your pet care needs. I always prioritize a pet's safety, comfort, and routine when caring for them in and out of a client's home. I follow all instructions provided by the owner, and any specific preferences or restrictions. I understand that consistency is important for animals, so I strive to keep their daily routine as normal and stress-free as possible while their owners are away. During walks, I ensure dogs are safely leashed, hydrated when needed, and given appropriate exercise based on their age, energy level, and individual needs.
“Kita was Chico (14 yrs old) and Rusty’s (4 yrs old) first dog walker. Our boys are quite the handful and Kita handled them like a pro! She was always on time, kind, and attentive to the boys and their unique needs. They quickly attached to her and her great energy. We will be using her services again. Book her - your animals deserve it.”
About: Hi! I would love any experience and I love all animals. I also have a very flexible schedule! I would love to help anyone I can! I can help out most days of the week. Mostly mornings or afternoons, but working during the day on the weekends works perfectly for me! I love all animals and treat any I meet like my own! I would not mind having to respectfully visit client’s homes if that is needed!
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 50 years. I've cared for my own pets as well as regularly helped family and friends by watching their dogs, walking them, and making sure they were well cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like part of the family. I am retiring and love working with dogs, so my schedule is very flexible. This allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care while keeping active and meeting new furry friends I provide a safe and loving environment with a fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time. I make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and plenty of attention. I also enjoy keeping pets engaged with toys and fun activities, including an outdoor pool in the summer, so they stay happy, active and comfortable.
About: I've been pet sitting for over 15 years. I routinely watch my friends and family's pets. I have also had pets of my own, including dogs and cats. I have summers off and am very flexible with schedules. During the year I am free most days but can also work around with any schedule. I have experience with crate training. I also have experience using dog diapers on unspayed dogs. I am flexible and adaptive to whatever your wishes may be!

A someone who has been around pets their whole life, I pay very close attention to detail. I cater to you and your pets needs by asking questions and going above and beyond.
“I highly recommend using Raquelle to help with your pet. She naturally loves animals and bonded quickly with my dogs. They looked forward to their walks with their new friend. She is a wonderful person that I will definitely hire again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a youngster. They have always made my heart happy! Family and friends have trusted me to care for their pets whether it was dog sitting, walking, or just dropping by they have always known their fur babies were in good hands with me! I currently work part time as a Medical Assistant which leaves lots of room for me to do what I love- spend time with dogs. If your dog prefers a furry companion- I have a very well socialized pup of my own who loves to play and go for walks. I am a lover of the outdoors myself so long walks are just as much as a bonus for me as they are for your pup. If your dog prefers to lounge around I can handle that as well!
About: I love walking, playing, & watching all sorts of dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs in the house since I was a little girl. Dogs are my best friends!

My home is friendly & welcoming to all different dogs. I do have a fenced in yard, & a dog who gets along great with others!
“Lindsay walks our Labrador Retriever several times a week. Moose loves Lindsay and I appreciate the walks and training tips that she offers when she returns home with our boy. She is professional and her experience with dogs and their personalities, different levels of training, etc. is really helpful to Moose and to us! I highly recommend Lindsay, as we are very pleased with the work that she does with Moose.”
About: I have taken care of my friends dogs for multiple nights in a row while her and her family were on vacation. Done this multiple times. I am part time.

Just the usual feeding and cleaning the litter box. I also love to cuddle so they are definitely loved.
About: I have taken care of dogs all my life. I have looked after dogs of all sizes. I thoroughly enjoy the presence of puppies and have had the pleasure of training puppies, caring for elder dogs, and everything in between Currently, I am conducting research at the University of Buffalo til the end of July. I am working a typical 9-5 but have all time around that flexible. I can work nights are even early in the morning as well, but lunch time check ins will be difficult for me. I am staying in a dormitory at the University of Buffalo so I will not be able to offer any services at my temporary residence, but I can offer dog walks, check ins, feedings, anything that can be done early in the morning or after 5 pm.

I’ve pet-sat for all kinds of dogs, cats, and fish for neighbors and friends. Feel free to reach out and I can drop by to feed and play with the cat, take the dog for a walk, whatever you need! Have taken care of both old and young pets. Currently have a flexible schedule. Let me know what your needs are and we can see what works ! I have a car which gives me even more flexibility. I’m diligent in following instructions and always keeping an eye on potential hazards or escape routes for your beloved pet. I’m a quick communicator and won’t hesitate to ask any questions !
About: I love animals, and I've had pets since I was a little kid. I love both cats and dogs. I had a chocolate lab for most of my childhood. Then, when I graduated college, I got a cat named Winston. He was my best friend until he died when he was 13. Now that I'm settled with a son and a partner, I have a mini Australian Shepherd puppy named Nugget. I have lots of love to give your pets, but I also prioritize safety and communication. I want you to feel at ease when you're away from your pets and know that they are in good hands with me. I will follow your instructions to a t and make sure that your pet gets so much love and attention. I have experience in caring for cats, but I also have experience dogwalking, housesitting, and dogsitting. I can't wait to meet your pets! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work from home several days each week, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend more time with the pets in my care. Because of my schedule, I can often accommodate visits throughout the day and provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, and care. Outside of work, spending time with animals is genuinely one of my favorite things to do. I love using my free time and weekends to care for pets, whether that means going for walks, playing, providing cuddles, or simply keeping them company and helping them feel comfortable while their owners are away. Caring for animals never feels like a chore to me. It's something I truly enjoy and look forward to. When caring for pets in a client's home, my goal is to maintain their normal routine and help them feel as safe and comfortable as possible while their family is away. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am happy to accommodate any reasonable requests regarding feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, medications, sleeping arrangements, or other aspects of their care. I treat every client's home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own. I am conscientious, trustworthy, and committed to leaving your home just as I found it. Most importantly, I strive to provide pets with companionship, patience, and attentive care so they can feel secure, relaxed, and loved in their familiar environment.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West New Kensington
Yasmeen has been walking my dog for the past 10 months, and she has been an absolute joy to work with. My dog adores her, and I always feel at ease knowing he’s in good hands. She’s communicative, reliable, and has even helped with last-minute walks when needed. I’m so glad we found her on Rover!
We reached out to Ashley for last minute walks we need unexpectedly and she responded immediately that she was available and excited to meet our pup! She was right on time both days and left a detailed note and so many photos!!! Thank you Ashley we will be reaching out when we need walks next!!
I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am to have had Suzy while we were on vacation. The time she took to learn about our sweet pup and our routine meant so much to us. She’s very thoughtful and though and really made us feel at ease. The peace of mind I had knowing our dog was in such good care allowed us to fully relax and enjoy our time and I’m so thankful. I will definitely be reaching out again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,493 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across West New Kensington. 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 West New Kensington. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood 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, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in West New Kensington.

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 New Kensington. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
