“OMG!! Lanese was a last minute lifesaver before my trip! She was very thoughtful and accommodating towards the task of daily walks for Max. Lanese was always on time and made sure she thoroughly fulfilled the walk. Her daily communication while I was away gave me assurance. She is a 10/10 and I definitely recommend her for any one in need of her services! Will definitely call on again in the future! Thanks so much!!!”
“Ryan was reliable and showed up on time and made an extra effort to get to know my dog and make my dog feel comfortable. I really appreciate Ryan walking Eli and will be booking him in the future!”
About: Hi! 💖 I’m Amanda, a recent University of Maryland graduate and animal lover. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, and fish throughout my life and love learning about their fun personalities and behavior. I trained my Labrador retriever as a puppy and have experience caring for dogs of all personalities, including senior dogs with hearing and sight issues, anxious dogs, and animal reactive dogs. I’m a very active person so I’d be more than happy to take your dog out multiple times a day. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. Currently I have open availability as I study for nursing school so I’m taking care of dogs all day/everyday! I’m happy to find a time that works for your schedule. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I am very agile, organized, and attentive to the behavior of every dog I walk.
About: 🐕 About Me Hi! I’m a dedicated pet caregiver with over 10 years of experience in military contract service, now balancing life as a law student and dog lover here in Maryland. I specialize in structured, loving care for busy families who want more than just a quick walk or check-in. Think of me as your pet’s second home—where routines are respected, details are never missed, and your dog is treated with patience, affection, and intention. As a mom-minded caregiver, I naturally tune into behavior, energy, and comfort. Whether your pup is playful and high-energy or needs a calmer, more reassuring presence, I adjust to them. Pet care is my morning noon and night , if not my big guys , then most definitely someone’s needs a walk or rub. This is my passion, your buddies have my undivided attention I have two fenced areas available for running and play, as well as our location provides to dog parks within close range. A Normal day we attend the dog park twice, morning and night, followed by a mid-day walk and lots of lazy couch snuggles. Our home is a place to come sit stay and play for a while🐾♥️ 🧐should you stay a while? We do have two kennels for sleep if your buddies are down with sharing . Couch is first come first served, all paws welcome..
“Always on-time, great communication, flexible, and my dog’s new favorite playmate, Rebecca is professional and comes highly recommended by me…I don’t just trust my puppy-friend-son with anyone.”
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, I provide more than just pet sitting — I offer a second home for your furry loved ones. From daily walks and feedings to cuddles and playtime, every pet is showered with so much love and attention. Whether it’s senior pets needing gentle care or energetic pups who love adventure, I tailor each visit to meet their unique needs. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. I always communicate clearly so you feel at ease while you’re away. Because pets aren’t just animals — they’re family. 🐾 I stay busy driving for Uber and caring for dogs full-time. I have a super flexible schedule so if you need me to take care of your dog on a short notice if I’m not already booked, I’m happy to help! I’m devoted to giving your furry loved one plenty of attention, affection, and all the snuggles they deserve! 🐾 I live in a very safe and dog friendly environment. I do not have a fenced yard, however, my community is very dog friendly that has a park right behind my house and walk friendly paths to take your fur baby on. I also care for cats as I grew up with both dogs and cats and have experience taking care of little kittens and pups to seniors. If you’d like me to check in on your fur baby at the comfort of your home, please feel free to reach out so I can coordinate a time where I can come and give your fur baby some loving care 💕
“Whitney is an amazing walker for our full of life puppy WALL-E. Her introduction was very friendly. Her communication is great. I would definitely recommend Whitney to anyone and for the new and existing ROVER members that's in the area. Take heed to what's needed for our handsome little guy!! You Rocks Whitney!!”
About: I’ve always been drawn to animals and getting to be around them is such a blessing. I’ve been around all sorts of animals growing up having: dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and even sharks at one point! I’ve always taken pride in caring for these pets and making sure they’re enjoying life and being taken care of properly. I just recently graduated from college and have a lot of free time. I am available all day, every day, and would love to spend my time with your furry friends! I am able to attend to any needs that the animals provider may ask and will happily and joyfully take care of your fur babies!
“Fennel is an outstanding sitter! They always keep me informed about the status of my pet and provide feedback and photos even when it is just for a short walk. They were also extremely helpful and reliable when I booked them for an all day stay. Highly recommend!”
“Emma has been on time with my big guys (Rocko, Atticus, and Axel). We sat down for a “meet and greet” ahead of starting the walks to make sure it was a good fit, and so far it has been great. She will be watching them while I go away; I’m sure they’ll be looking forward to her visit.”
About: Caring for animals has always been part of my life (horses, goats, chickens and my beloved GSDs). I volunteered at a humane society and interned there as a dog trainer as part of my formal behavioral dog training program. My training philosophy focuses on positive and constructive relationships between dogs and their carers. I strive to create a “fear-free” environment focused on the needs of the dog and the expectations of the owner(s). In caring for my own dogs, I do all my own bathing and grooming and provide massage for rehabilitation, health benefits, and to comfort and calm them. My formal dog training education includes a Pet CPR and First Aid certificate as well as a Pet Massage certificate in addition to my certification as an Obedience Dog Trainer. Massage proved to be of particular benefit to my senior dog who suffered with osteoarthritis. Training and care of senior dogs is often overlooked and I aim to positively impact this area as well as providing the highest standard of care for dogs of all ages. I am currently completing a course on dogs with aggressive behaviors as part of my continuing education in dog care and wellbeing. My at-home hours enable me to provide lots of stimulating mental and physical activities in caring for your pups and older dogs. This schedule allows me to provide careful monitoring and supervision of your pet. Dogs will be crated at night for safety and for no more than two to three hours during the day for adult dogs (less for puppies). I have a small training room with dog play and fitness equipment indoors and have a large fenced-in area for outdoor play, exercise, and training. Any activity will be agreed based on client needs and all activities will be constantly monitored and supervised. This is also an extremely dog-friendly area for loose-leash walking. You and your wishes will be respected and your dog’s needs will come first. Additional services may be requested.
About: I’ve owned dogs of all sizes and cats my entire life! I’ve grown up in a big animal lover home so I love to occasionally foster, volunteering at shelters and pet sitting! I have decades of experience with animals - dogs, cats and reptiles! I’m comfortable teaching new commands, and grooming if requested! My cat and dog are both good with other dogs and cats so they will love the company! I currently work from home full time so expect lots of cuddles, walks throughout the day and trips to the parks on weekends! I’m currently working at home full time with a flexible schedule so I’m able to fit in feeding times, walks throughout the day and plenty of cuddles! I have a dog and cat of my own so a furbaby’s needs are already part of my everyday life! I have a shaded fenced yard and an entire home for your furbaby to explore! I have a very friendly dog and cat (both small) that love new friends and will keep your furbaby company with playtime! We will fit in several walks in a day in my very quiet and green neighborhood, plus so park time on the weekends if allowed! I have a very comfortable spacious crate if it is preferred for continued training and my own toys and blankets which I have cleaned regularly !
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, giving lots of attention, and sticking to routines. I’m patient, dependable, and love making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience with puppies, energetic dogs, and keeping pets active and happy. I’m currently home from college for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available during weekdays and weekends for walks, and drop- ins. I’m very reliable and can work around most schedules. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are supervised, secure, and cared for like they are my own. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and any special needs to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free. I’m responsible, trustworthy, and will always keep owners updated while their pets are in my care.
“Shane & Brittany did a great job with walking and caring for my dog while I was away on a work trip. My dog requires extra attention (and understanding) which was handled well and made me feel at ease being away from her. I would recommend them to care for anyone’s dog. The daily reports and photos were also appreciated.”

Highly recommend! Super responsible and reliable dog walker. They always provide detailed updates with lots of pictures, which really gives me peace of mind while I’m away. They followed all of my instructions carefully and were very attentive to my dogs’ needs and routines. You can tell they genuinely care about the pets they work with. Thank you so much for the wonderful care!
Sam has been so sweet and loving with our boy Charlie from the moment they met. He’s been super protective of the pack since we got a new family member but she was able to convince him to leave the house and walk farther than any other dog walkers have. Highly recommend Sam!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Yorktown on Rover is $26.75 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 13,516 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Yorktown. 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 Yorktown. 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 Yorktown.

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 Yorktown. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
