About: While my specialty is cats, I've also had a bit of experience with taking care of dogs. I recently started voulnteering at a local shelter to gain a bit more experience. I've also done some dog sitting for friends and neighbors. Currently, I don't have a traditional job so my schedule is super flexible. I'd be happy to take care of your fur babies any day of the week. I understand that cats have wildly different personalities and will do my best to make them feel comfortable while I'm around. I will spend time with them in whatever way they prefer, whether that's playing, petting or just existing quietly in the same space. With cats especially I do my best to be a calm and quiet presence and unless I have to give them medication or something where I have to get in their personal space, I usually let them come to me to reduce the risk of stressing them out.

About: Hi my name is Diane, and I have been caring for dogs, cats, fish and birds most of my life. I will care for your precious babies just like my own. They will receive professional care, love, attention and affection. This is my full time job, if you can call it that. It's a blessing. I have a nice yard and field for walks, and a large covered deck for outside play time in severe weather. I only take one family's pets at a time. So, your babies will get plenty of quality attention and companionship. My home is pet friendly and all safety precautions have been implemented. Your companions will be kept separate from my own for the safety of both parties. I am also comfortable and experienced taking care of special needs pets that might require medications to be administered or other accommodations. I now have a bedroom designated for cats. It has a king size bed and lots of windows for bird watching. I only book one family's cat or cats at a time. I have excellent reviews and references. Thank you for your consideration. This is my full time job. A labor of love. So, caring for your companions will be my top priority. You can feel confident and secure while they're in my care. I will accommodate your companions needs and your requests. All pets are kept safe and attended to at all times. I am trustworthy and reliable.

About: Without having a ton of experience, I work well and will live up to your expectations! I love animals; I have two dogs and a kitty. I'm good with all different types! I'm a senior high school, trying to start a part-time job here. I've kept the same job for two years and have loved that experience working with kids! I'm good with keeping puppies safe on walks. My cavalier loves to go on long walks. Keeping a good eye of roads, what they step on, and what they eat!

About: In 22 years, I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, horses, hedgehogs, etc, etc. I love all creatures of any shape, size, or temperament. I will adapt to your pets’ personality and boundaries and discover how to make them feel the most loved! I am taking college classes online, which means I entirely make my own schedule! Day or night, I will make time to love and care for your pet. I work 2 days a week and can often move my shifts around with advance notice. I always let the animal come to me first. The most important thing is to let them know that they can trust me, so that I can learn more about what they need to feel comfortable and cared for. I follow the lead of the pet, whether it be fast-paced walking, stopping to sniff every tree, or relaxing on the couch for an overnight stay. I’m very attentive to an animal’s communication and would love to build a trusting relationship with your pet.

About: I currently have 2 dogs and have had dogs my whole life. Both of my dogs are very high energy so I am used to keeping them busy. My male dog is 3 years old and he requires a lot of love and attention. He is great with kids and other animals. My female dog is 6 years old and she's a very anxious girl. She prefers to be the only pet but is extremely affectionate with people. I have experience with small and large dogs from puppy to elderly. I am comfortable feeding, grooming, walking, and caring for your pets. My availability is flexible. I am willing to stay at the owners home so the dogs feel safe in a familiar area. I am available for daily walks or extended stays. I have experience with special feeding and medication routines for pets if needed. I also have experience caring for more than one pet in the same home that are on different schedules or need to be kept away from another pet in the home. I will treat you fur baby like my own and they will be well cared for! I'm currently in the process of going back to school so I am not working a scheduled job right now. My availability is flexible. I'm available for daily check ins and walks. I'm also available for extended or overnight care throughout the week and all weekend. I will do all of my care at the client's home per the client's instructions on their pets needs and will provide care in the way the client specifically wants their pet cared for. My availability is open and very flexible! I can take last minute requests, overnight stays any day of the week, can stop in multiple times a day to check on your pet if needed. I will do my best to accommodate any situation and make sure to take great care of your dog/cat! I will give your pet lots of love and attention! I will make sure to follow any instructions or requests while I am caring for your pet(s). I like to send daily pictures and updates to give you piece of mind while you are away. I always keep notes with your normal routine with your pet as well as any other information I need to know while caring for them. Before caring for your pet(s) I like to spend some time with them during a meet and greet because it is extremely important to see how your dog or cat responds to me before I am hired to care for them. Being a dog mom myself I would want to see how my dog responds to someone before I made the decision to hire them. Your pet(s) safety, comfort and wellbeing are my top priority when caring for them!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I can play with them, pick up after them, bathe them and make sure they’re happy and well fed. And I can take the dog on short or long walks and make sure they’re happy and safe. Also for house sitting I’ll make sure the house is clean and any messes the dog makes is cleaned up as well I’m a student at an online university, but I am taking a break from perusing my BS in forensic accounting. So I have plenty of time to watch your pets. I have two dogs that I take care of with my family. And they are well cared for and I play with them throughout the day and feed them when they need to be fed.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have cared for pups from their playful puppy stages all the way through their senior years. Because of that, I’m comfortable with all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, a calming presence, or gentle senior support, I’ve got them covered. I work night shift, which means my days are completely free for pet care. I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, dropins, and giving your pet lots of attention. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe right away. I keep their routine consistent, give lots of attention, playtime, and regular potty breaks to keep them relaxed and happy.

About: I can do it all from big breeds, to small breeds; from happy breeds, to sad breeds. I’ve also got experience in tending to aggressive animals or animals who react out of fear so don’t worry! Growing up, I had an aggressive pup who people refused to come around and it made things hard on me, I want to give ALL pet parents a chance to feel safe knowing their aggressive or reactive dog is in good hands. I know the do’s and the don’t’s! Animals are a passion and if I could have every animal in the world, I would! Give me a shot to take care of your baby and you won’t regret it! I’m an active duty military member, but I work in a 24hr shop so my schedule shifts a lot. However, that is no issue for me as long as I have a heads up from my clients! I will work with them to create a schedule that best suits both me and the animals! Your animal is now a priority of mine(: I have a 6” vinyl privacy fence with a very large backyard. I have 3 dogs of my own and can accommodate some animals in my home. However, I will need to have your animals formally meet mine before making that decision so that we don’t put anyone in harms way. I will also request an updated shot record for any animals entering my home and will provide you with the same(:

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. You can rest assured your pups, big and small, will get all the love and attention while you’re away. I currently work full-time, Monday through Friday, but have three pups of my own at home and can board additional pups overnight during the week and can do daytime walks on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and keep your pets separated from my household pets unless they are long-time visitors and we know everyone gets along well.

About: For years my neighbors have relied on me to take care of their four dogs when they are away for weekend trips or even for trips that last over 2 months. Each one had their own personality and I was able to adapt to it and get along with them well. Over the years I have also had my own pets and have taken care of others. I have taken care of animals from cats, snakes, guinea pigs and most of all dogs. I am patient and contempt with taking care of dogs. In all, I've had a lot of experience with animals! I adore animals all the like and have had the best experiences taking care of lovely pets. I'm a part time worker but that's only on the weekends as I have night school. That leaves me plenty of time in the day during the week and weekends to check on your fur babies. I will be able to drop in later at night at around 9:30-11 p.m. If ever in emergencies, I have a fenced yard that is very very roomy for a dog who loves to run around and play outside. I am more than happy to drop into the clients home and even help clean and pick up after the place for comfortable living for their fur baby. I don't make messes and will no matter what pick up after myself. I will always address to the client in emergencies.

About: I’ve had pets since i can remember. There’s never been a time in my life i haven’t had a cat or dog! As I got older, I began shaping a better life for myself, for them! I’m just trying to give my dog the yard she deserves 🫶🏻 I’m between jobs right now so my schedule is yours! I’m excited to take time and do things i enjoy, including caring for pets 🐶🐱 I have a fenced backyard and two pups who are the sweetest little fur balls ever. I have three cats who live like kings (and queens) inside, who stay out of the dogs way and watch from their perch as the doggos do their things. I never want my animals to feel bored so i keep an abundance of perches, toys, beds, and even the television for them to access all day.

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life! I have gotten into pet sitting more this last year and people have trusted me to stay with their animals for a week or more at a time! I love helping others who needs someone to care for their pet while they are busy. I have very open availability throughout all days of the week so I am able to visit and care for animals as frequent or as long as you would like! In my clients home I always care for their pet using the instructions they give me. I can walk them as often as you’d like and feed them on a certain schedule if needed. My biggest concern is making sure my clients feel comfortable about leaving me with their pets.

About: I run a 5k every day and can handle large or small dogs. For boarding I have 2 acres of fenced in grass nearby where I run by husky at daily. My experience : I've had dogs in my home since I was 7 and was tasked with their walks and training. I now have a 2yo siberian Husky, Shryko, who I have off-leash trained for hikes and river adventures. So I'm very active, and my dogs have a lot of enriched exploring and exercise. All this with only treats, praise and regular patient consistency. I am a circus artist and entertainer by nights and weekends when the work is available. I spend most week days free at home honing my skill set and arranging bookings. Therefore plenty of time to head out for walks, or break and enrich a dog's day with playtime. I have a fenced in yard and large living room. 1 dog, 8 month 40lb siberian husky girl who loves company and playtime. Also have a large crate if separation is needed.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Woodcrest

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Woodcrest on Rover is $22.2 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 .

As of June 2026, there are 2,346 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Woodcrest. 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 Woodcrest. 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 Woodcrest.

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 Woodcrest. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
