About: Dogs aren’t just my passion—they’ve been my way of life for as long as I can remember. Having raised and cared for breeds of all shapes and sizes, from tiny lap dogs to gentle giants, I understand that every pup has a unique personality and pace. As an active foster parent, I specialize in creating a calm, supportive, and safe environment tailored to your dog's exact needs. Whether your pup thrives on high-energy hikes, loves exploring neighborhood trails, or prefers gentle neighborhood strolls, I make sure every outing is safe, engaging, and thoroughly exhausting in the best way possible. When your dog stays with me, they get the full royal treatment. My home features a spacious, fully fenced yard for safe daily zoomies, alongside a comfortable, loving indoor setup where they can stretch out and relax like family. I’m currently building my full-time career around doing what I love most: providing top-tier care, safety, and endless belly rubs so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. i do currently work part time monday-friday so i am available for dog walks after 1pm and i am open friday after 1pm- sunday evening for any stay the nights i do have a fully fenced back yard, tons of room for fur babies to run. 3 fur babies of our own along with a senior cat. i have 2 senior fur babies along with a 4 year old that is great with both seniors and puppies.
“We’re so grateful for Abigail! This was our first time using Rover, and it was a last-minute request after I missed scheduling doggy daycare. She responded quickly, was open to receiving additional information, checked in when she arrived, and communicated clearly throughout the visit. I truly appreciated her professionalism and reliability. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, from raising my cat since he was four weeks old to looking after large breeds like Mastiffs. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'm currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I'm available throughout the week and can easily accommodate feeding, walks, playtime, and other daily care routines. I follow each pet's routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, fresh water, and litter box cleaning. I provide attentive care, affection, and regular pic updates to owners.
About: I’ve always grown up with a wagging tail by my side. With 4 labradors and a past as a kennel technician; I’ve cared for all ages of pups. From the babies with little toe beans, to the cute little powdered sugar faces. I will care for any pet like my own. I’m currently open to any walk or drop in any time of the day Monday-Friday. I will make sure to communicate and update my profile to fit my schedule. I will care for the pet as loving as possible and make sure to follow the owners needs for the pet. I am aware of my surroundings and the pets at all times to make sure they are safe.
About: I have had dogs ever since I was a kid. I also worked at dog daycare/boarding places. I will take really great care of yours dogs. I am available anytime during the week and weekend. I can stay overnight with your pets in your house also. Just send me a message. I have 3 friendly and loving dogs. I have a fenced backyard. And a crate if they need to be crated.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13 from friends and family, I’ve always loved dogs, but my parents weren’t really a fan of them, now that I move in to my own house, that has plenty of space for dogs to run and play I’d love to take care of your pets as if they were my own I’m a stay at home mom of 2 girls and 1 baby boy, I’m all day at home almost every single day of the week I have a fenced yard, my backyard it’s kind of unusual, it’s like a double fenced yard, one for my house and behind that is another fenced yard for my husbands horses, so if you’d like your dog to have some kind of farm experience they can be on both yards, but if you preferred for your dog to stay away from the horses that can be too
About: As a devoted pet owner, I share my life with two amazing dogs: a sweet senior pup named Cookie, who is 12 years old and has a calm, gentle spirit, and a playful, energetic puppy named Roscoe, my lively puppy who keeps me on my toes with his boundless energy. Together, they’ve taught me so much about patience, playfulness, and unconditional love—and they’re my inspiration for becoming a trusted dog walker and sitter. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make sure to wake up early to give my dogs their morning walk and some playtime. Throughout the day, I set aside breaks for feeding, training, and cuddles. By the evening, we have a wind-down routine—more gentle walks and lots of bonding time—so they fit in seamlessly with my schedule. At home, I care for my pets by making sure they have a structured routine. I provide them with regular meals, fresh water, and daily exercise. It’s all about balance, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and stimulated every day.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, ducks, geese, chickens, and roosters. I currently care for backyard animals for a regular client, so I’m very familiar with feeding routines, cleaning, and making sure everything stays safe and secure. Pet sitting is my full-time job, allowing me to be fully available and attentive for every booking. My partner Brayden is also on my profile and comes with me to bookings. He has over 10 years of experience working with horses and farm animals, including owning his own horse. Together, we’re confident handling multiple animals and assisting with farm routines and basic horse care such as feeding and turnout. We always follow instructions closely to keep your animals safe, happy, and on their normal routine. I provide full-time, professional pet and farm animal care with a flexible schedule throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight stays. Because this is my primary job, I am able to give each booking my full attention and maintain consistent, high-quality care. I have experience with dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals including chickens, ducks, geese, roosters, and horses, and I tailor my care to each animal’s routine and comfort level. I provide attentive, reliable care with a strong focus on safety, consistency, and trust. I carefully follow all instructions for each pet’s routine, including feeding, handling, and any special needs. I maintain a calm, clean, and respectful environment in every home I care for. I also believe in clear communication and provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away!
About: Hey fur parents, I just wanted to come on here and provide a 5 star service to you and your fur baby! Here’s a little bit about me… I’ve pet sat, walked pets, administered medication to many pets that require it on a day to day basis (via orally and injection), and many drop-in visits for a little over 5 years now to highly anxious, aggressive, and elderly animals. I’ve also worked it the veterinary field assisting doctors to provide hands on care to your fur baby for a little over a year now. I’m also in with the AKC. I compete with dogs in conformation, agility, dock diving, scent work, and barn hunt etc. and have been doing that for about a year with all types of breeds and sizes. I have always had a special connection with dogs and all animals for that matter and enjoy every second I can get with any of them. I look forward to doing some pet sitting or walking for you and your fur baby! I work part-time at the veterinary clinic (2 times a week for 5 hours a day) which gives me plenty of time during the week to play with your precious fur baby! I’m also a college student who has recently switched to online classes giving me even more time with your pet! I have a fenced in yard for endless potty breaks and plenty of play area! I have two loving Labrador retriever’s dogs to bring your pet a buddy to play endless tug of war with or if your pet isn’t on the energetic side just a good ole snuggle buddy! 😁
“Very nice and sweet individual, helped me out in a time where my girl and I just had a baby and needed assistance with our high energy dog. My dog took to her immediately making the experience very easy and comfortable. Thank you so much Joalice!”
About: I took care of my two dogs with multiple breeds, i’ve watched my aunts pitbull and boxer, I love Siberian huskies they’re my dream dog. I usually stream and stay up during the night so as long as it’s not early morning I should be available and able to play with your puppies. (All my bookings i had mornings as well, whatever is their routine i will do it) I have a sort of tiny fence in the back yard and two little grown dogs if your furry friend is playful to keep them company.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 6. I absolutely adore animals and their innocence. I am reliable and sweet to them at all times! I am currently working a part time job and my hours fluctuate, but I still have a flexible schedule to dog walk either when I get off or before work! I have a shih tzu at home who is a very calm dog. I feed her twice a day with blood pressure meds. She might already be tired of how much love I show her every second of the day!
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. From pet sitting for friends and family members to just stopping by for food and playtime. Your pets regardless of age are in great hands. I am currently working part time so I have Thursdays, Fridays, and some weekends available to play with and cater to your sweet fur babies! I have worked with pets of all different sizes and personalities. I know what signs to look for and how to safely monitor play and social environments.
About: I really like going on long walks, and I’ve taken multiple dogs on walks. I enjoy being outside and it’ll be ten times better if I have a dog with me ! I currently only work a part time and it’s mostly at night so I have plenty of time to take your dogs on walks during the daytime just about any day! I like to make sure pets are well fed and have fresh water available at all times. I make sure there isn’t anything they can get into that will hurt them and of course I keep them occupied with pets and plenty of play
About: I’ve always loved animals since I was a child so being knowledgeable on creatures is one of my strong suits. I’ve trained for a few years and I’ve taken care of animals for longer. Wether it be fish, rodent, feline or canine, I’ve been called to watch, heron, and/ or feed all types of creatures Whether it’s early morning or late at night always available to engage with creatures. Man best friend, cat or dog I’m willing to take my time of the day to take care of said animals It always depends on the animal itself on how you should take care of them during stress. Usually I’d follow and rules/ procedures the owner have for said pet but if there weren’t any specifics I’d just do the base line of what they need and read body language
About: I have two cats, Lana and pumpkin , that are my everything. grew up with dogs, and have been pet sitting for two years. Being around both cats and dogs has taught me that every pet has a different personality and needs. I’ll be patient and caring, and I take time to help pets feel comfortable with me. I do work part time and also a student but I have time off I’m available Tuesday all day Wednesday afternoon, Friday afternoon and Saturdays I have 2 fur babies as well , 2 adults cats , they get very comfortable after introduce to any animal , they mostly stay to themselves and sleep all day
About: I have hands-on experience with dog sitting and basic pet training, caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether it’s high-energy puppies who need structure and consistency or older dogs who thrive on routine and gentle care, I adjust my approach to meet each pet’s individual needs. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and supervision throughout the day. I already have a dog of my own, and I’m very structured and committed to maintaining his routine and schedule. Because of that, caring for other pets blends seamlessly into my lifestyle. My day is built around walks, feeding times, play sessions, and rest periods, so adding another pet simply means extending the same level of care, structure, and attentiveness. Working remotely also gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, engagement, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods.
About: I have always been very good with animals ever since I was little. I like animals more than humans so I promise to take care of your pet like it is my own. I have volunteered at the Human Society and I am going to college to work with animals so I would love to care for your pet to gain more experience. I am currently home from college so I am free all day, Monday through Friday. Then starting in August I will be home Friday through Sunday. I have an unfenced yard but plenty of yard for them to run around and I have a in ground runner that they can be put on for some freedom. I also have two fur babies to keep your fur baby company but they can always be kept separate if needed.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Youth is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $22 per walk.

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 Youth. 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 Youth 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 Youth. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
