About: Hi! I’ve loved animals my whole life—I was always the one begging my parents to take in every stray I found 🐾 I’m currently a nursing student, so I’m very detail-oriented, responsible, and focused on safety. I also have a prior military background, which has taught me discipline, reliability, and consistency in everything I do. I’m very active and love running, so I’m great for high-energy dogs who need walks and exercise, while also being calm and patient with cats and more relaxed pets. I’m comfortable following routines, giving lots of attention, and keeping you updated with pictures so you always know your pet is happy and safe. My schedule varies with school during the week, but I’m available outside of those days, along with mornings, evenings, and most weekends. I also have occasional required skills hours, but I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your pet’s needs 🐾 During visits, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care based on their personality—whether that’s going for a walk, playing, or just keeping them company. I always prioritize safety by ensuring secure leashing, clean water, and a safe environment before leaving. I also provide regular updates with pictures so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away 🥰
About: I am a lifelong pet owner and animal lover with over 25 years of caregiving experience. I have had dogs almost continuously since kindergarten ranging in size from a 5 lb poodle mix (Trooper) to a 95 lb yellow lab (Nala), in addition to 3 years as a parent to 2 cats, Jules and Gemini. Jules was with us only briefly due to her advanced age when she was adopted, while Gemini is a much younger kitten who wasted no time claiming my home as her own. I also recently lost my 10 year old corgi (Sadie) unexpectedly to an extremely aggressive form of cancer, and so would love the opportunity to spend some therapeutic time with your furry kid. Prior to beginning work through Rover, I have several years of experience caring for cats and dogs for a variety of friends, family, and neighbors including everything from drop-in visits and dog walking to full-time house/petsitting. Outside of my petsitting duties, I am a PhD chemist working hard to make the battery in your phone last longer and your electric car drive further. My wife and I moved to the Silver Spring area in 2024 for her job as a television producer and I am in the process of establishing myself in the DMV research community. Availability: Except in special cases, I am available for booking at any time of day, any day of the week. I am happy to provide everything from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays. I am currently working part-time from home, so I am excited to have the opportunity to care for your pets at any time! This can include drop-in visits to your home, overnight stays with your fur baby, and day-care or boarding at my home (as long as they're friendly with my cat Gemini). I am glad to visit your home as frequently as you prefer. All visits will include checks for water quantity and freshness, any prescribed food refills or walks, and of course play time. I'm also happy to provide overnight care for your pets and home if preferred, please send me a message if you are interested in more long-term visits. I'm also very happy to host your pets in my own home! I have plenty of room for cats and dogs up to 50-70 lbs. Both my wife and I have had pets our entire lives and between the two of us, someone is nearly always home to supervise and provide any needed care. Since I live in an apartment complex, I do not have a private yard but do have plenty of communal space for walks and other outdoor activity.
“Sydni is amazing with my dog and cat. My dog has a habit of hiding under the couch despite the meet and greet. She loved Sydni. Anytime one of my pets had an accident, she went above and beyond to clean it up. Great with communication!!! I.”
“Rebecca accepted my last-minute booking request to walk Casper, which I really appreciated! Sent me several photos and I was relieved the little guy had a walk and some company while I was stuck at work!”
“Oliver is the best—a responsible animal-lover who walked our corgi for two weeks while I was out of the country. Oliver sent photos and videos, and kept in touch via text message. We will be using Oliver’s services again soon. Highly recommend! Thanks, Oliver!”
About: i have been walking dogs around my neighborhood for 5 years and i have 2 dogs myself, love animals and i love walking! Your dog will be well take care of by me! Here's a short, sweet response: Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time. I love being outdoors and going on walks, so I enjoy giving pets the attention, exercise, and care they need throughout the day. When caring for pets, I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of attention and affection. In a client's home, I follow their specific instructions to keep their pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine while they're away.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kind since I was a little girl, friends and neighbors even family members have depended on me to walk, train, feed, and play with their pets I currently have an open schedule so I can be available from anytime from 11 am to anytime in the afternoon I am busy on weekends so that’s the only time I won’t be available. If you have any questions don’t be afraid to send me a text. I will only be available to watch pets in owners home due to people having allergies in my home, I will take care of pets just as their owner would if they were home, when you leave nothing changes.
“Gio was an excellent dog walker. She helped me when my current dog walker could not continue walking buddy. She reported all the details of the visit efficiently and gave us peace of mind. She was informative and responsible. This was my first time using rover and I had a great experience thanks to Gio. She has a true love for dogs and what she does. I will definitely work with her in the future.”
“Really appreciate you Hailey, walking Max. For the second time you were totally dependable in getting him out and around the neighborhood. Even saw him out in his raincoat! Loved all the pics. Max received so much love while we were away! We were so comfortable. Thank you!”
“Amanda was great! We have a small, super friendly but high energy dog that will not sleep through the night unless she’s had enough exercise. Inanna slept through the night after just one 30 minute walk with Amanda. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Marika is the best! She shows up when she says she will and has even been flexible with small last minute time adjustments, when possible. She is gentle and sweet with my initially shy guy, Hank, who warmed up to her in no time and clearly loves her! She always sends adorable photos, is a great communicator, and I feel extremely lucky to have someone I feel confident will take great care of the love of my life while I’m at work. (:”

“Jonathan was great with our recently adopted dog that gave him a hard time. He was calm, patient and adapted to the situation as needed, communicating well along the way.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for 25 years now. Growing up I had a dog, five cats, and our house was known to feed the stray cats in the neighborhood. I’m a huge animal lover. I’ve been pet sitting clients for the past 4 years, and I absolutely love the work. Dogs and cats are so sensitive to change, so I love catering to their needs to make sure their time apart is free from stress. I do this by maintaining their routine, providing plenty playtime/exercise if they’re open and able, lots of pets and cuddles if they’re interested, and staying home as much as possible so they can have the security of a present and consistent caretaker (overnight care). I want the pets to feel like they’re on vacation too! As for the pet owners/stewards, I love to send plenty of pictures and videos, so they can feel at ease knowing their pets are cared for! I don’t have a lot of selfies/photos with the pets but under my photos you’ll see all the sweet pets I’ve cared for! Please let me know if you have any questions! I’m a part time actor— mostly theatre. I’m free during the daytime and normally have rehearsals in the evening. When there are evening rehearsals I walk dogs in the early evening 5 or 6 before leaving and walk them before bed, around 10:30.** **As of April 12th 2026 I’ll have full availability for dog/cat sitting and dog walking I prefer staying in a clients home so pets can stay in an environment they’re used to. I provide lots of cuddles for the pets that need it. If clients have carpeting, I’d like to know their preferred carpet cleaning methods (I.e. machine or hand scrub) in case of any accidents.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - White Oak
Molly is very responsible and caring and easy to work with. She took the time to get to know our dogs, showed up on time for every scheduled walk, and provided a thorough report about their outings. I love working with Molly and the dogs really feel safe with her. I highly recommend her!
Zaena was professional, timely and easy to work with! She is very quick to respond and was able to do a meet and greet same day. She took the time to make our dog Guinness comfortable before the first walk, took lots of pictures and had great communication updates for me. She even went out in the rain and made sure Guinness had his raincoat on. I will definitely be a repeat customer.
Oluwaseun is such a wonderful dog walker! I will definitely use her again! She went far and above the walking responsibilities. She communicated before arrival and completion, sending cool photos of what my dog Ralph experienced on his walk.💗💗 She was attentive to all the details of what my dog needed. I felt so at ease having her walk my senior dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in White Oak on Rover is $19.26 per walk (as of June 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 .

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 White Oak. 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 White Oak.

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 White Oak. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 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.
