About: I have always been passionate about helping and caring for people and animals. I have care experience with many breeds and types of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, rodents, reptiles, and horses. I adore dogs especially — their friendliness, loyalty, and energetic demeanor is contagious, and I love them so much for it! My dream is to rescue animals and help to find their forever homes. I will love and care for your pet(s) like my own. As for more about me, I am originally from Kentucky, and I studied music, specifically opera, all throughout college. I am a singer, actress, model, chef-in-the-making, fitness guru, social media influencer, artist, writer, and much more. I enjoy meeting new people and animals, and my greatest goal in life is to help as many others, human and animal, as I possibly can! I am able to check in as early at 9am, and as late as 9pm. I often have my children with me, and they either wait in the car or join us for walks in their stroller. I like to gather as much information from you as possible so that I can recreate your pet’s daily routine while you’re away! I enjoy giving animals the best, most comfortable and familiar experience as possible.

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long a so can remember. Growing up wi would always take care of neighbors cats while they were out of town, and now I dog sit, cat sit for family friends. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals. I am an active person so I will walk your dog, run with your dog, take your dog to the dog park, or even go on hikes with your dog. Of course it is all up to you and I will not do anything the owners are not comfortable with. I love all kinds of animals and their safety is my top priority. I currently am a full time student so I am trying to prioritize my school over a part time job. So, while in school I decided that pet sitting and walking would be a job that could fit perfectly into my school schedule. I am free almost every day of the week depending on the week, and I am flexible with hours. Your pet and their safety is my biggest priority. Every pet varies on how they need to be taken care of as well as different safety measures needed to be taken. I am very flexible and a fast learner if the owners need specific things to be done I will meet all those needs. I cannot have pets stay at my own house because there is not a fence and there are a lot of people living in my house so the environment may not be the best for the animals because of all the noise.

About: I have been dogsitting for over 5 years. The clients I have worked for I have done overnight stays, dog walks, and day sitting for up to 8-10 hours. I do have one dog I sit for that doesn’t do walks so I adjust to what the clients needs. On overnight stays, I do clean up and bring in mail/ newspaper if the clients ask. I am a big animal lover so your dog/ cat will get lots of love. I do have a clients that likes to receive pictures during my stay. The dog will get plenty of exercise and playtime. Also I am flexible and very reliable. I can provide references of my regulars if needed and their type of dog. I enjoy providing lots of fun and love. I am flexible and reliable. I am able to meet to whatever the client might need. I am available whatever day and time. I do my best to meet the needs of the client. I haven’t cared for other animals in my home besides my own. When I go to someone’s residence, I follow what the owner normally does. I am usually left instructions to follow.

About: Families book with me for loving, family-style care, frequent photo updates (if desired), and the peace of mind that comes from working with a sitter trusted by repeat clients since 2021. 🐶 I simply love dogs. They are truly my passion. 🐾 Caring for them isn’t just something I do, it’s something that fills my heart. 💚 I have a special love and deep experience with breeds such as English Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Lhasa Apsos, Shih Tzus, Shorkies, Greyhounds, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, and Bernedoodles, but I genuinely enjoy caring for all breeds and personalities. Every pup deserves to feel safe, adored, and understood. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. While I can’t be a full-time fur mama to them all, dog sitting allows me to pour love into as many pups as possible and I wouldn’t trade that for anything. It has been such a blessing to learn and care for new breeds through my bookings. Each dog I welcome into my home deepens my knowledge, strengthens my skills, and grows my love for dogs even more. What truly sets me apart is the family experience I provide. When your dog stays with me, they aren’t just “watched”—they become part of our home. While your family is away, your fur baby enjoys a warm, loving, family-style environment filled with cuddles, attention, and genuine connection. I happily send plenty of photo updates (if desired) so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well-loved. My family loves dogs too, and on occasion, trusted family members may stop by simply to meet my furry clients and share a few extra cuddles (not to assist with care), but purely because they enjoy loving on dogs. 🐶 Some of my favorite repeat clients even get to travel with me, including family visits and store outings (photos available!). Your dog gets real-life experiences, companionship, and enrichment—not just a place to stay. Over the years, I have lovingly been a full-time fur mom to up to three dogs at the same time, gaining daily, hands-on experience managing multiple dogs under one roof. Currently, my home includes Khaleesi, my sweet English Bulldog girl. I also carry deep love for my Lhasa Apso, who crossed the rainbow bridge in August 2023 🌈. My Shorkie was lovingly rehomed with an older family member to provide emotional support, and while she no longer lives in my home, she remains part of my extended family story. I’m also what I proudly call a “Mid-Woof” 🐶—I have independently and successfully delivered 4 litters of puppies in my home and have personally whelped, nursed, and raised two litters until 4–8 weeks of age before helping them find their forever homes. I understand canine behavior, comfort, and care on a deeper level than most. I will love on your fur baby as if they were my own. Bulldogs, in particular, require a special level of patience, knowledge, and care and if you’re a bulldog parent, I’m absolutely your girl. (Bulldog hugs are always welcome 😉) I’m proud to share that I have 10+ repeat clients, including several families who have trusted me with their fur babies consistently since 2021—relationships built on love, reliability, and peace of mind. I look forward to being your dog’s Bonus Mom while you’re away. Let’s get your pup booked, loved, and spoiled! 🐾💕 I work in an office Monday–Friday but return home on lunch breaks for potty breaks and check-ins. After working from home for seven years, I’ve adjusted my availability while remaining intentional and reliable. I’m a mom to young children under 10 who are gentle, respectful, and great with dogs 🥰. I’m available for daytime drop-in visits, and on weekends (when in town) I’m fully available for dog sitting in your home, my home, or for additional check-ins. I have plenty of grassy space where I live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I also have a fur baby to keep your dogs company if needed for service in my home. I have a dog area set up in my home. We also travel to dog parks when weather permits, if your dog needs activities, we will go on walks and even to our favorite dog park!

About: I’ve been around animals all my life and I’m always the friend who gets asked to watch the dogs while the owners are out of town. I’m also a college student who moved away from my dogs so it’d be nice to see some furry friends still! I might even teach them a new trick or two! I am currently unemployed so Rover is a great option for me right now while I’m figuring out what I want to do in the future. Therefore I’m available 24/7 and would love to help take care of your animals! I’ll do whatever it takes to make sure your pet(s) still have a fun time while their human is away! I’ll treat them as if they were my own!

About: I am pretty flexible around my work schedule with caring for dogs, I can find a way to make sure your dogs are a top priority in my daily schedule. Since my work schedule does range, I will keep my availability updated. I have always taken care of my own dogs and other people’s almost my whole life since I was a preteen. I absolutely adore getting to know other dogs and giving/receiving love from them. I’ve been training with dogs since I was 11 years old in basic manners, tricks, and agility, so I am experienced in training puppies and younger dogs. I am always up for learning more about other dogs and their personalities as well. They are such intriguing and beautiful animals. I make sure to walk dogs before and after work. Dog park a few times a week. (If that’s in their routine) And lots of cuddle time! Brushing and brushing teeth are weekly tasks normally. I ask for the pets’ normal routine. This way, it is less stressful on them that their routine doesn’t change as much with their person/people gone.

About: Hey there! I am a pet/animal lover and enthusiast. I would have all the animals in the world if I could. I currently have 1 dog, Kash, and 1 cat, Darla Jean. Animals and caring for them are my life! Here’s my why: My grandmother lost her husband at a young age. She never dated again. She took in dogs and taking care of those dogs became her life purpose. Growing up, I would always want to visit my grandmother so that I could stay up all night with her and take care of the dogs. It became our thing. I feel that I am now living out my grandmother’s purpose by fulfilling my own purpose in giving unconditional love and care to any animal that crosses my path, just as she would have done. I love animals, and quite honestly, more than people, haha! I look forward to meeting, loving on, and caring for your fur baby as if they are my own. ❤️🐾 I am a special education teacher full time, but my toddler and myself love to show unconditional love to animals by taking care of them like they are our own. I get to do what I love as a part time “side hustle” plus also show my little boy of my own how to treat and care for animals plus teaching some responsibility! I’m available evenings, most weekends, and most holidays/ school breaks. It says on my profile “no children in the home,” but since I started Rover, I have had a baby and there is a 2 year old in the home. I tried to edit that info but literally cannot find it anywhere. Just wanted to make sure that was said though. Anyway, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own child. I like to meet with my clients face to face first so that I can get to know not only their fur baby, but their expectations in caring for their pet. I’m a great listener and follower of directions, so if you tell me exactly what you need, I will do my very best to make that happen.

About: Ever since I was a baby I have had a dog in my household. As soon as I could get a dog of my own I got Bentley, my German Shepherd/Coon Hound mix. I adopted him at only 6 weeks old back in 2020. Growing up neighbors would ask me to cat sit when they were on vacation which included changing litter, feeding, and playing with the cat daily. Additionally, I have been asked to help walk dogs and to house sit in the past! I live in the Hamburg area and work full time at the University of Kentucky. My traditional work hours are 8am-5pm M-F with an hour lunch break. I would be willing to carve out time in my lunch to walk or care for pets. I do not work weekends, and have the most availability to care for pets during that time! I am extremely trustworthy and will abide by any rules you have for your fur baby. I am experienced with crating, and have no concerns with helping to put your animal back in a crate after caring for it. My fur baby, Bentley, is also extremely dog friendly so if your animal needs socialization with another, I could provide that! Unfortunately, due to the nature of my living environment I cannot board myself as I live in an apartment.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Winchester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Winchester on Rover is $18.87 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 705 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Winchester. 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 Winchester. 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 Winchester.

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 Winchester. On Rover:

  • 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
