“Isabella is great! She's very responsive, flexible to help with added walks on unexpected days that pop up during the week, and she takes extra special care of my pup who can be stubborn at times and sensitive to heat. Highly recommend!”
“This was a very last minute booking, but I gad recently used them for boarding so I was very comfortable knowing that they already had a relationship with one of my dogs. Took pictures! Showed great enthusiasm to come walk the dogs!”
“Lenny did a great job taking our 2 Great Danes on daily walks. The girls really like her and were very excited when she arrived every day. It is apparent how much Lenny likes animals and her enthusiasm and care for them really shows.”

About: Hi! My name is Sarah. I grew up taking care of our family dog, rabbit, guinea pigs and fish. I feel comfortable and confident walking/caring for all different sizes and ages of dogs due to previously working for a dog walking/pet sitting company in the NOVA area during 2016-2017. During that year, I was also was responsible for overnight stays, and day time cat visits. My primary experience with pet care since that time has been taking care of my own dog (his name is Rudy, he is a toy poodle who has been the best friend we could dream of for almost 10 years and counting). I am in the medical field and am currently in between jobs, which allows my schedule to be flexible. I am available every weekday (and most weekends). For house sitting, I will keep to your desired schedule as my Rover schedule allows (as I will likely need to leave a few times during the day for other pet visits). I am comfortable staying overnight in your home. For dog walking, your dog’s safety is my top priority. I will avoid other dogs and if walking 2 dogs at the same time, I use a waist leash. I prefer to use a harness and non-retractable leashes (when available). Before or after their walk, we can also play fetch/play with toys inside or outside (if you have a fenced in yard). For cat visits, I am happy to clean their litter boxes, feed them, and play with them inside your home (only if they are interested, of course!) For either dogs or cats, I am able to administer oral or injectable medication if needed.
“Macy is awesome! She is so understanding, patient, and loving with our two labs (including one that takes a while to warm up)! Macy has excellent communication and is always on time, often early. It gives me such peace of mind to see how much our dogs love their weekly walks with her!”
About: I’ve cared for both cats and dogs since I was very young. Through my former work at a local animal shelter, I gained valuable experience with pets of all species, ages, sizes, and needs. My days are very flexible, so I’m easily able to fit in visits at most times throughout the day. If we schedule recurring visits, I prefer they mostly stay at the same times from week to week. At this time, I am only able to care for your pet in your own home. If you have any questions about my services, please message me. I will do everything possible to accommodate the individual needs of your dog or cat.
“Excellent walk! Bella was instantly drawn to Sweta and I was very comfortable with their first walk together! Grateful for Sweta’s availability in a lay minute pinch!”
“Sofia is the best! Our pup loves her! She is flexible with scheduling and is super friendly! 10000/10 care provided for Knox! We have already rebooked with her and cannot recommend her enough!! 🙃🐾 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for over 13 years. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends, family, and others who have trusted me with their pets. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and needs, and I approach each one with patience, consistency, and kindness. My experience includes daily walks, exercise, mental stimulation, reinforcing positive behaviors, and providing calm, reliable care, especially for dogs who need extra reassurance or structure. I have firsthand experience working with shelter dogs and understand how important trust and routine are in helping dogs feel safe and confident. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make each walk or visit a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet sitting and dog walking fit perfectly into my current schedule. We recently moved to the area, and at this time I am not pursuing full-time employment so I can settle in, explore the community, and maintain a flexible daily routine. All of my children are in school, and my own dogs are on a consistent schedule with early morning walks and daily exercise starting around 5:00 AM. This routine allows me to be fully present for my pets first thing in the morning while freeing up a large portion of my day for additional walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Because of this structure, I am reliable, flexible, and able to accommodate daytime and early afternoon care with consistency and attention. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and my schedule allows me to provide unhurried, attentive care to every animal I work with. I am a very meticulous person and strongly believe that a clean environment is a safe environment. Whether I am caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I prioritize cleanliness, organization, and consistency to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I keep living spaces tidy, food and water areas clean, and ensure toys, leashes, and resting areas are safe and well-maintained. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting care as needed to reduce stress and promote well-being. My goal is to provide calm, dependable care in a clean, structured environment so pets feel safe, relaxed, and at home, no matter where they are.
About: What sets me apart is my experience as a veterinary assistant, which gives me a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and emergency care. I’m confident caring for pets of all ages—from energetic puppies who need training and structure to senior pets requiring gentle handling, medication, or special attention. I prioritize safety, consistency, and love, treating every pet like family. Whether it’s playing with them or just providing a calm, reassuring presence, I’m here to give your pet the best care possible! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I’ve built my schedule to make them a priority. As a veterinary assistant, caring for pets is already a big part of my life, and I extend that same dedication to my pet sitting clients. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I plan my day around each pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, loving attention. I’m usually available weekdays in the afternoon and Friday’s and weekends I’m free pretty much all day to care for your fur babies! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I make sure they feel safe and comfortable by giving them plenty of attention, affection, and patience. I will also keep your home tidy, respect your space, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away! My goal is to make your pet feel like you’re never gone! :)

I treat every pet as if they were my own and will always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm an active-duty Soldier, so my schedule is structured and dependable. I'm generally available on evenings, weekends, holidays, and during approved leave.

I'll provide regular photo and text updates so you always know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for.
“We love Steph! She is super easy going and fun. She takes great care of Charlie and also a ton of really cute photos during her walks. I look forward to the pictures during my work day! Steph is awesome and I highly recommend her to care for your pet. In fact, we have gained a trusted friend thanks to Rover! ?”

“We had the pleasure of having Natalie take care of our dog while we were on vacation, and we couldn't be more pleased with her service. She was absolutely wonderful with administering our dog's medications, ensuring they were given exactly as prescribed. Natalie also followed our dog's walking and feeding schedule to a tee, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We returned home to a very happy and well-cared-for pup. We highly recommend Natalie to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Miranda has been so amazing to work with so far! She is so understanding, reliable, accommodating, and patient with our rather nervous Golden. She has tried different things to help her walk more and has even offered to show us some of the strategies she uses. Our dog, who is also hesitant to warm up to new people, seemed to love her immediately. Highly recommend Miranda!”
About: Raising two Micro Bullies since 2022 and 2024, I prioritize strict health routines, muscle-focused exercise, and consistent leash training for a well-behaved, happy, healthy pair.

McKenna is fantastic! She is truly a professional-attentive to details, asks great questions to make sure she’s caring for our pup to the highest standard, and gives our little guy so much love. The way he is always excited to see her is also a testament to the quality of care she provides! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy person to care for their pets.
Janna was AMAZING with Buddy. We were in a real pinch and needed a dog walker on super short notice. She jumped in, was able to do a meet-and-greet same day, and I felt so relieved to be able to leave my pupper with someone I could trust. I will definitely be reaching out to Janna any time I need a dog walker. She was awesome!
Angela was amazing with our doggos. She was very thorough in her reports and provided lots of pictures. We especially appreciated how patient she was with our older doggo and made sure she ate her food as she takes a while - definitely will be rebooking again and recommending to our family and friends!
Leah has been an absolutely amazing dog walker for our pup!! I was so impressed with her professionalism from the start and she has been so consistent and thorough in providing the best care for our dog. She is a great communicator and you can tell she really cares about taking care of animals. She has put my mind at ease on a daily basis knowing my pup is receiving the best treatment and attention. I could not recommend Leah enough!
My boy, Henry, and I are repeat customers and so very thankful for Miranda! She walks Henry on a weekly basis and I know he looks forward to her visits! Knowing she had experience with a dog who just went through ACL surgery gave me so much added peace of mind. Highly recommend Miranda!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Woodlawn on Rover is $17.12 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 15,231 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Woodlawn. 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 Woodlawn. 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 Woodlawn.

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 Woodlawn. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
