Simone does so well with my active blue heeler Australian Cattle Dog! He does really well with her and he gets a full 30 minute walk in. She is always on time and is easy to work with!

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for them. Growing up, I was the person friends, family, and neighbors trusted to pet sit, and that’s continued into adulthood. I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare, where I gained hands on experience caring for multiple dogs, understanding different temperaments, and maintaining a safe, structured environment. I have experience with large breeds and am comfortable handling big dogs, as well as administering medication when needed. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and I understand how important it is to keep them safe, happy, and on their normal routine. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and work from home, which allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. Because I build pet care into my daily routine, I’m able to stay attentive, stick to your pet’s schedule, and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I provide a calm, structured home environment and intentionally care for only up to two families at a time, allowing every dog to receive plenty of individual attention, love, and care. I offer complimentary meet and greets before every boarding stay so we can get to know each other, discuss your pup’s routine, and make sure we’re the perfect fit. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications (if needed), and bedtime routines. Your pup will enjoy supervised playtime in my spacious backyard, walks, enrichment, plenty of love and attention, and a calm home environment. If they get muddy or messy during their stay, I’m happy to give them a bath with your permission. I provide a clean XL crate and cozy dog bed for dogs that are comfortable using one, but I understand every dog has a different routine. If your pup normally sleeps in bed and you’re comfortable with it, they’re welcome to snuggle up with me at night. My goal is to make every guest feel as safe, loved, and at home as possible. You’ll receive photo updates throughout the day, plus a bedtime photo each evening so you can relax knowing your best friend is happy and well cared for. If I ever notice anything out of the ordinary, I’ll contact you right away.

About: My husband and I love animals, and although we don’t currently have a pet of our own we’ve been watching dogs for friends and family for as long as we can remember. I work from home, which allows me to give your dog plenty of care and attention throughout the day. We live in an apartment with one flight of indoor stairs. When we need to step out, we do have an indoor security camera that allows us to keep an eye on your pup and check in on them while we’re away. We provide a safe, loving, and pet-friendly home where your furry friend can feel comfortable and happy. I’m experienced caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors who need extra comfort. Every visiting pet is treated like family, with love, care, and attention, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I only host multiple dogs together when they come from the same household, so your pup(s) will never be boarded with unfamiliar dogs.

Rebecca was awesome! She left my a very detailed note of what my dog did before, during, and after the walk. She took a very cute photo and I can tell she gave great care to her. My dog can’t wait to see Rebecca again, we’ll definitely be using her in the future and referring her to my friends!

Regina is a very experienced dog walker/pet sitter. Her professionalism is apparent from her first visit. She is not someone who walks dogs to make a few bucks...this is a business she takes very seriously. My dog very much enjoys her daily visits and is very excited when Regina arrives. She makes us aware of any concerns she may have with my dogs heath or if there is any concerns at my house during the visit, which gives me peace of mind. I recommend Regina to anyone looking for a professional and reliable caregiver for their pet.

Daria has been great! She came over to meet with our dog (who has stranger danger) before their first walk so she was comfortable the first time. We get adorable photos while on their walk and to ensure she is home safely. My husband and I know we can count on Daria on some of our longer work days and we are so grateful she takes such good care of our fur baby ❤️

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life. I lived with a Bichon Frise and Tabby cat in my family home. I have pet sat my friends furry pals for over 10 years and treat them like my own. I currently have 2 pups living with me who are my whole world. Rover allows me to spend time with other animals and love them as my own! I currently work a hybrid job that allows me to work from home Mondays and Fridays (also having weekends off). This is a great mix for anyone who is taking long weekend vacations. I have a large apartment with 1 dog to keep your fur baby company. We have lots of activities, a doggy park across the street, and lots of toys to keep them occupied. If your pet is used to crate training I can certainly do that as well.

Colton has been absolutely amazing with my two Frenchies, Vaan and Krypto! From day one, it was clear how much he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with. He’s reliable, communicative, and always goes the extra mile to make sure they’re happy, safe, and well-exercised. Vaan and Krypto absolutely adore him, and I have total peace of mind knowing they’re in such great hands. He’s attentive to their personalities and needs, and it really shows in how excited they get every time they see him. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and fantastic with dogs, I can’t recommend Colton enough. Truly a 5-star experience every time!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Westwood Lakes

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Westwood Lakes 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 6,847 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Westwood Lakes. 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 Westwood Lakes. 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 Westwood Lakes.

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 Westwood Lakes. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
