“When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.”
“Beth did such an amazing job and was so patient with Betsy who can be very shy at first. Beth went the extra mile and came and met Betsy ahead of time to make her more comfortable. She sent updates of their walk and showed so much care towards Betsy. I highly recommend Beth, she is great with dogs and is a very reliable and outstanding dog walker!”
“Cara is the BEST! My buddy Apollo is always happy to see her because he knows he’s going for his walk that he loves. Cara is always pleasant, great with Apollo and has concern for his welfare whether it’s too hot, if he can have a treat, or if he pooped haha! Cara rules!”
“Ella is fantastic. She is so sweet and kind and really connects with our dog. My wife and I can tell Ella really cares for our dog. She is great at communicating and is always on time. We highly recommend Ella.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was a little girl. My family has fostered animals growing up, showing me the true meaning of giving someone love even if it’s just temporarily. Being your pets home away from home is important to me and guaranteed! I am available when ever needed my schedule is completely freed up! Let me know what days you need and I will get right back to you! The pets I babysit for are my first priority. Every single one of their needs will always be met and is the most important part of my day.
About: I have owned dogs for the past 20 years, including a mastiff and pit/Shepard mix. I also grew up with cats. I have also helped out a rescue I am home at lunch during the week to let your pet out and home by 5:15 pm . Weekends I do not work and can be home all day I have a separate gated off part of the house the animal can be housed in instead of sitting in a crate if I am not home
About: I have a lifetime of experience and have owned pets of all shapes & sizes from hamsters, ducks, chinchillas to cats & dogs. I'm skilled in administering medication and caring for elderly pets. I will care for and love your babies just like my own. If you have any questions feel free to reach out & ask! Between my fiancé’s and my work schedules, your pups won’t be alone for more than 4 hours at a time, so they’ll have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. On weekends, I’m completely free and will be 100% devoted to your pups! ❤️ I’ll make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while they’re with me. I have a large fenced dog with two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. They’re welcome to lounge on the furniture & I have no problem crating if that’s what you prefer.
About: I grew up having pets since I was born, including dogs, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and others. My daughters and I have taken care of our neighbors and friends dogs, and we have experience interacting with cats from my brothers and friends. We have a cat named Pumpkin and a guinea pig named Cozy, but my daughters are longing for any dog-sitting especially, so we have plenty of space, love and affection to spare, if needed. I am a teacher with my summers off. My daughters are in camps periodically, but we are largely staying local throughout the rest of the summer, and I have a number of house projects that will keep me based at home for most days. I have a pet-friendly townhouse community that I live in. Safe, slow-moving cars, dog-walking areas with doggie bag stations, coupled with open grassy areas, and conveniently located near several close-by parks and even a dog park 10 minutes way. Other dogs are leashed in the community. If needed, your dog can be kept in our finished basement, with plenty of space to move around. In your home, if you prefer to have the dog walked nearby and/or caged at night, that will not be a problem.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I love meeting new dogs and cats. When I am out at a park I always want to say hi as long as the owner is ok with saying hello. I am available daily for pet visits, walks and playtime. I am a full time pet sitter and available to fit your schedule or if you go on vacation. I will follow all instructions in and at your home. If you want a drop in visit I will be sure to play with them and give them lots of attention.

I’m very good with puppies as well as seniors. I have extensive experience caring for animals, including being a veterinary technician at a vet hospital. Im currently a full time college student, but with multiple long breaks between classes I’ll be able to care for your animals. On weekends, I have no classes so I’ll be available for your animals anytime. I can easily crate your dog if needed, and I have a fully fenced in yard. I have two sisters who are full of energy who would love to play with any dog that will walk past them, as well as two friendly dogs
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs my entire life. I love to treat them like they are little humans. Animals have always been a big part of my world, and I bring a calm, loving presence to every pet I care for. I’ve looked after both energetic pups and older cats with health issues—including one of my own—so I understand how to be patient, attentive, and gentle. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a reliable routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I work full time but I can pop in before or after work and on weekends. I am open to other times if it works for the both of us. My schedule can be flexible depending the week! I am available in Wilmington de and Brookhaven, PA area! You will receive the best photos so you can frame! 🐈📸🐾 I have two cats in my Household currently. I care for them everyday by cleaning the cat box, fresh food and water. They love play time and bed time is at 10pm. They are well trained kitties.
About: I have cared for animals all my life. We've had cats, dogs, guinea pigs and hamsters. I have also volunteered at 2 animal shelters. I am newly retired. I play with my 4 cats every night with a laser toy and I also have a rod with a toy on the end of it that they love to play with. They all like to sit on my bed and watch TV with me. My cats help give me purpose. I treat them like my children. They all have different personalities that make me laugh! They are very affectionate.
About: I have been interacting with dogs of all breeds and ages since I was 8 and volunteer at local animal shelters as well as taking care of my own pets.

I have a studio apartment with ample park access including a fenced in backyard. I have a 7 year old pit mix who is potty trained and loves other dogs! I also have a crate if needed :)
About: With three dogs of my own, I'm used to a little chaos, lots of personality, and plenty of love! I've had dogs my whole life, and my current dogs are different ages, so I understand that each one has their own pace and needs. I've also cared for family pets and know how much it means to trust someone with your best friend. I'll take the time to learn your pet's routine and quirks so they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you're away. I have a flexible schedule and am available most days for walks and drop-in visits! Caring for my dogs is already part of my daily routine, and I'd love to make time for yours too. We can discuss the timing that works best for your pet. I'll care for your pet in their own home, where they're surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and their favorite things! I'll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, and playtime, respect your space and make sure your pet is safely settled before I leave. You can also expect photos and updates along the way!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Woodacres is $31 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $32 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Woodacres. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Woodacres after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Woodacres. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
