About: I grew up with lots of animals that always needed extra care and love. I also have taken care of seniors that need extra attention, patience, and medication. I just recently graduated cosmetology school so I’m taking time off in the mean time to explore other areas. I have open availability so my focus can be on your fur babies I keep plenty of toys and litter boxes around the home. I keep evening tidy and clean for my animals. I like to meet the animal first to make sure it’ll be a good fit and to ensure I am capable of taking care of them
About: I have a genuine love for animals and experience providing caring, reliable pet care. I enjoy keeping pets happy and comfortable through walks, playtime, feeding, attention, and maintaining their daily routines. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I am a college student home for the summer so my schedule is quite open and flexible which allows me to easily accommodate your schedule. I will feed, walk, and care for the pets whatever their needs may be. Whatever the pet owners demand, I will provide to the best of my abilities.
“Jim did a great job! He put my shy dog at ease pretty quickly and didn’t rush his walk. He was much more attentive to my dog’s needs than I expected. Will book with him again.”
“Melissa was great. My dog doesn’t always walk well for new people and he took to her right away. She took the time to come by for a meet and greet and we were really impressed!”
“Toni A. is awesome! Our fur baby loves her. He is so excited when he sees her drive up & eager to leave for his walks with Toni. It’s clear to see that she loves dogs. Toni is Punctual, friendly, energized, engaging, and comforting. Of course we were concerned w/starting walking Service with Rover or any dog walking service. This is our baby. Toni calmed all our fears.”

“Melissa was such a wonderful source of support to us and our puppy! I had to travel for work and her support made me feel a lot more comfortable traveling. Our puppy is 8 months and still learning to adjust to the heat and Melissa did a wonderful job walking her!”
About: I’ve taken care of smaller dog breeds since I was 10 since I was a pet owner myself. My childhood pup of 17 years recently passed. I took care of medium-to-large breeds during the pandemic and during grad school. I’m familiar with anxious dogs and older dogs, and like to give animals their space to feel comfortable around me. I’m also experienced in cat sitting (~ 5 years) and have taken care of multi-pet households before. My day-time schedule is flexible and my weekends are pretty much open, especially in the mornings. I like being outside, so I am often at a park or on a hike on weekends! I currently live at home with family, no children and no other pets. We have a large backyard. In a client’s home, I like to be familiar with all entrances and exits and am extra careful to pay attention to feeding and medicine schedules. I take care of my client’s home like I take care of their pet. I am respectful, caring, and responsible. I want the pet to feel as less stress as possible.
About: I’ve spent years taking care of pets—from shy seniors to high-energy pups—and I really take the time to get to know what each one needs to feel happy and comfortable. I’m super patient, and I love finding the little things that make each pet light up, whether that’s a favorite toy or a long walk! My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and totally at home while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins, so giving pets consistent care fits really smoothly into my day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening chill time, I make sure each pet gets the attention and structure they’re used to. Even on busy weeks, I carve out dedicated time so every animal I’m caring for gets patience, affection, and a routine that feels familiar to them. I listen to you. In my home, I keep pets on their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. If I’m at a client’s home, I follow their rules and their pet’s normal schedule so everything feels familiar.
About: I've had dogs my entire life. In the last few years I've boarded over 30 dogs at the house. I've completed over 250 services on wag with dogs, cats, and a pig while maintaining a perfect 5.0 rating. References available upon request. Pet care is my full time job. Dogs will have free range around the house and I'm with them 100% of the time unless I have to go walk another dog. My house has a dog door attached to a fenced backyard which the dogs have full access to throughout the day. They're also allowed on the furniture and bed. We have a nice trail by the house which my dog and I walk about 5 miles a day on.
“Brianna was absolutely wonderful with my baby girl, Sammy. She communicates well, shares cute photos every day, and took the time to come meet Sammy and see how she’s doing! I would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve never been without pets in my life. I have been taking care of (feeding, walking, etc.) them since I was a little kid! I’ve helped with cats, dogs, and bunnies. All of our pets were raised from babies and cared for until they passed away. I’ve given sick pets pills and other medications. I know how important it is for pets to get exercise and enrichment! I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule! I have my own transportation with a reliable vehicle and can swing by for a quick visit or plan a longer stay to care for your pet! I can adjust to your environment! I am a traveler and have moved around so I understand apartment living and family-style homes and how that can affect pet care. I can feed, walk, and play with your pet no matter what that looks like.
“I had the pleasure of having Lilly, walk my Dog Simon 3-4xs a week for 2 months. She was always punctual on timing and if she was ever running behind she would make sure to give a notice. Most importantly I enjoyed seeing Simòn happy upon her arrival, tail wagging through my Furbo Dog camera, she always greeted him with scratches and made sure to give him a treat before leaving. I appreciated the photos during the walks around the neighborhood or if Simòn was being lazy instead of ending the walk she would sit outside with him while he sun bathed giving him scratches. Lilly thank you so much for helping me out during this time!”
“I can't say enough about Nataleigh. She is very responsible and communicates well. She does great with our 2 year old Malinois, Sela. We are so glad that we found her. I highly recommend Nataleigh if you want your furry baby to be safe and happy!”
About: I’ve been caring for my own dog, Shaggy, for the past 11 years, so I understand the patience, love, and attention pets need every day. A few years ago, my family also welcomed another dog, Bella, into our home, and we’ve been caring for her ever since. Looking after two dogs has taught me how to meet different personalities and needs, whether that’s going on fun walks, playing, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and always make sure they receive plenty of love, care, and attentio I am working part time and have plenty of time this summer to meet and take care of many cute faces I am available almost anytime. In my home we have two dogs who are my best friends I love carrying for them a well as having a good time and seeing them have fun.
“Tracey was wonderful! She took care of my 2 dogs and cat. They got exercise, fed, and love during her visits. I would definitely look Tracey again. Thank you so much for watching our babies!”

Alyssa was a total lifesaver! We wound up needing to bring our dog on a trip to Northern VA at the last minute and needed someone to walk her. Alyssa was prompt in her communication and asked great questions to make sure our dog was comfortable. She kept us posted on her arrival, let us know how the walk went, and sent photos. We will definitely contact her again when we are in town visiting. Thanks, Alyssa!
Elizabeth has such a calm and reassuring demeanor, and my dog absolutely lights up when she comes over for a walk. She communicates quickly and clearly, which makes scheduling around my work week incredibly easy. I always know my dog is in good hands with her. Highly recommend!

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 13,427 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Woodhaven. 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 Woodhaven. 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 Woodhaven.

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 Woodhaven. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
