Emily walked our older dog while we were away. She always sent photos and seemed to pay very close attention to him. Would definitely recommend Emily!

Alejandra was great! We have a puppy who needs patience with her walks as she’s interested in every smell. Alejandra gave Rosie time and was allowed her to walk at her own pace.

Kendall is very responsive and reliable. She's a "dog person" which was immediately obvious from the moment she met Remington! Now, Remington enjoys his walks with her, and we appreciate the periodic photos!

About: I have had a cat since I was 10 and A dog since 12. I have experience with my cat giving birth to kittens and raising them. I also have adopted a cat who was FIV +. My first word as a kid was dog lol and I absolutely adore all dogs. I am active and live walking/ running almost as much as the athletic dogs but I am also always down to chill with a senior dog or little dog who needs a different kind of attention to feel loved. I have taken care of several senior dogs with arthritis or blindness and understand the importance of intentional care. I would love to help make your furry friends feel loved while you’re away. I work part time at night so I am free all day and nights when Im not working. Taking care of your pet is my priority I’m happy to care for pets in their home, whether that means stopping by for playtime, feeding, walks, or simply giving them some company while you’re away. I also offer walks and fun outings to help keep pets active and happy! I’m not currently offering overnight stays, but I’m happy to provide dependable daytime care. I also have a friendly cat of my own and would be happy to host a cat in my home if they are comfortable and friendly around other cats. 🐾🤍

About: Hi! I’m Abbey. I grew up in a household that always had dogs, so living with furry friends is second nature to me. I truly love dogs, cats, and all kinds of animals. Most recently, I spent seven years caring for a dog from his adult years until he passed away at 13.5. That experience taught me so much about the patience and extra care that older dogs need, but I love the energy of younger pups and the company of animals. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and kindness I’ve given my own family pets my whole life. I know how stressful it is to be at work wondering if your pet is okay. I’m here to help! I offer lunchtime visits, after-work walks, and full weekend availability for walking and feeding. I’m not a professional “business”-just a lifelong animal lover who wants to make sure your pets get the fresh air, food, and affection they need while you’re busy.

Mary stayed overnight at our home with our pup for two nights. She was fantastic with Selina, who can be a little aloof with new sitters. Selina seemed happy when we came home, and obviously was given lots of attention. The home was also in great condition. We can’t wait to book with Mary again!

About: He convivido con perros desde que nací. Me apasionan las razas pequeñas, especialmente los yorkis. trabajé en LA RED DE APOYO CANINO, sin fines de lucro. Tengo disponibilidad de tiempo, para realizar paseos de media hora. Me avisan con un día de anticipación, y con gusto busco al consentido de la casa. Lo primero es conversar sobre las costumbres del peludito, para poder atenderlos como se debe. Comida, medicamento, enfermedades, para estar muy bien informada. Ellos no hablan.💚 Y lo más importante, conocer su carácter. Respetar su manera de recibir afecto. Las mascotas, saben pedir y poner límites. Y no exponerlos a situación que puedan alterarlo o asustarlo. Estar atento todo el tiempo y reportar a su dueño constantemente, sobre su perro. Tratarlos muy bien, para ser personal de confianza y que me vuelvan a contactar, a través de este medio.

Patricia has been an incredible walker for my high-energy pup, Kobe. She communicates clearly and consistently, and she’s always willing to adjust to my schedule when things shift around. During this brutal heat, she makes a point of keeping Kobe hydrated and well cared for on every walk. I also love that she mixes up his routes instead of doing the same loop every day. It keeps him engaged and burns off all that energy. I trust her completely with Kobe and highly recommend her.

I am so pleased to have Katie walking my energetic chocolate Labrador! One of the things I appreciate most is her punctuality and reliability. She has only been walking my dog for a couple of weeks, but it already feels like she’s been part of our routine forever. Katie is caring, dependable, and clearly loves what she does. I am so happy with her services and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker! 🐾

FAQs for Dog Walking - West University Place

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in West University Place on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 6,300 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across West University Place. 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 University Place. 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 University Place.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 University Place. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.
