I can’t thank Joshua enough for the wonderful care he’s given Melvin. He’s been incredibly patient and understanding with my pup, and it’s clear that he genuinely cares about animals. Highly recommend Joshua to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog walker!

Peyton has been great with my dog who struggles with aggressive greetings towards people and other dogs. She is very responsive, understands dog behavior, and is always on time. I’m relieved to have someone I can rely on for when I need to travel.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. My heart is always happy with pets, I enjoy to play with them, feed, bath, walk or just snuggle together. I work in my home office, so I’m able to take care of the pets in my house every day and night in a week. I have a couple doggy parks nearby so I can take pets every day to park. Also I like to walk around lakes and natural trails so will have a lots of fun together.

About: Hi there! I'm Lyndsay! I am a 29, and I've been doing this for 8 years, so I am very understanding of what a dog needs, and will always keep their emotions, safety and energy level all into focus for them to have the best time possible that is beneficial to them! I am known to aimlessly walk around the streets of nyc, letting the city call towards different spots it wants me to see, a perfect quality for walking lovely dogs! Now that I have moved to Flordia, I have all of this pent up energy to be around all the amazing flordia dogs that need love and care! I have three family dogs, one older American Eskimo, and two Border Collies under the age of 4, meaning I am still pretty equip and up to date with handling puppies. My baby sister turns 18 in May and is a type 1 diabetic! Through this experience, I want to help find her the perfect diabetic dog to aid in her growth! I used to have a senior dog who passed away from cancer (bless his soul) but in his final stages, we crafted such a lovely last year of his life through love, support and comfort. This meant, taking medications, being fragile and cautious, but above all, find the love in his heart. I can't wait to meet, play and love your furry friends :) I have a very relaxed schedule, so I am easily accommodating and eager to help out! This is a full time job for me, as I have had over 200 clients over the past 8 years, juggling both this Wag! and personal clients. I have a fenced yard and 3 other dogs inside of my own family home! If they want friendship, we can have playtime. If not, I can crate my own if needed for the safety of everyone involved!

Bethany and Aaron did a great job. Our dogs love them both. They communicate regularly and even send pictures. This is the second time we have used them and we are sure our pups are well taken care of. Would definitely recommend.

About: I have always had an admiration for animals no matter the type. But for some reason the love that you get in return from a dog is just indescribable. I know that it is always a weary feeling to leave your babies in the care of someone else. But it definitely helps to know that the person caring for your pet shares the same passion that you do. I never thought that I would own small dogs but I am actually glad that I do have two Chihuahuas now because I can take them almost anywhere! There has been an occasional weekend trip where I haven't been able to bring the pups along and it just didn't feel the same having to leave them behind. So if you have to leave them, leave them with someone who will care for them just as well as their own! I definitely prioritize my pets before any plans are made! No matter the time of day, week or year. They are my fur babies and anyone that knows me will agree! Depending on the environment or location, I would definitely say to use a leash first and foremost. I would also like to know if you know about the other animals in the area, just to provide as much safety as possible.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs on and off since I was 12 years old. From Rottweilers to Malteses, I have experience with many different breeds in all sorts of shapes and sizes. I enjoy feeding, socializing, and exercising dogs, even minor grooming such as brushing and nail clipping. I’ve traveled to North Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania to care for dogs long term in their residences. I truly care for dogs as they’re such loving, loyal companions who deserve the same love and loyalty reciprocated. I also have 5 years experience of bird care! I currently have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to have plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m more than happy to discuss your needs. Caring for your pet in your home allows them comfort and a sense of peace that they wouldn’t have in a new environment. I respect your home as I respect your pet! I will always follow your rules and conduct myself in a professional manner. Your pet’s care is my #1 priority!

About: I have been pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family since I was 13. I have been trusted to care for, feed, walk, bathe, play with, and clean up after all kinds of pets. I am always respectful to you, your home, and your pet. I have a Golden retriever of my own who I love an insane amount, and I will always treat your pet with the same love as I treat mine! I’m currently working a part time job, so I will have plenty of time to stop by and feed, walk, and play with your pet between shifts! I will gladly walk your dog on a leash, or just let them out in a yard. I will always keep eyes on your pet and will play with them during the whole visit! I will feed/give them water as instructed, and am always interested in learning any commands or skills your dog may know!

About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do it’s who I am. I’ve had pets my entire life and can’t remember a time when I didn’t have a dog in my home. With years of hands on experience, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I work from home, which means I can give your dog the attention, playtime, and companionship they need throughout the day whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or 24-hour boarding. Your dog will be treated with the same love and care I give to my own always safe, always loved, and never alone. I’ve had animals my whole life and can’t recall a time I didn’t have a dog by my side. I currently work from home, which means I’m able to give your pet the love, attention, and companionship they deserve whether it’s for a walk, a visit, or 24/7 care while boarding. I live in the peaceful Walden Lake area with access to several beautiful walking trails perfect for getting fresh air and exercise. I also have one dog of my own, a 10-year-old Jack Russell mix who is my absolute baby. I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I give him because they deserve nothing less. I work from home, so your dog will never be left alone and can get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced-in yard, giving your dog safe and easy access to potty breaks, fresh air, and playtime as often as they need. Plus, I live in the beautiful Walden Lake area with access to scenic walking trails for daily adventures. Whether it’s for a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, your dog will be in a home full of care, comfort, and companionship just like they deserve.

Rosemary has been an incredibly dependable and caring dog walker for my senior dog, Lola. She shows up on time, communicates clearly, and handles Lola’s aging needs with such patience and compassion. Her gentle bedside manner gives me real peace of mind, knowing Lola is in thoughtful and capable hands. I’m truly grateful for the care she provides and highly recommend her to anyone with an older or special-needs pup.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for over five years now. My family and friends rely on me when they go out of town or call me when they need advice on how to care for their pets :) I work fives days a week Monday-Friday 5a-1:30p and I’m off on the weekends so that leaves plenty of time to spend relaxing around the house or running around the yard or whatever else they may fancy I live in a large house with a huge fenced in yard that all the doggies love! So there’s plenty of space for the furry friends to frolic and just be happy and play

We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter! Joshua took amazing care of our four dogs and our fish over 10 drop-in visits across five days, and we had complete peace of mind the entire time we were away. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention and affection during every visit. We really appreciated the consistent communication, updates, videos, and photos, which made it easy to relax knowing everyone was doing great. Even our fish were well looked after! It's not easy finding someone you can trust with multiple pets, but he exceeded every expectation. He was reliable, professional, and genuinely caring. We will absolutely book with him again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Willow Oak

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Willow Oak on Rover is $16.65 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 4,194 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Willow Oak. 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 Willow 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 Willow Oak.

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 Willow Oak. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
