“Sophia's availability and reliability are excellent! I can tell she genuinely cares about and enjoys working with animals. Our dogs are like family to us and we appreciate sitters like Sophia who treat them as such.”
“I had a family emergency and had to leave town ASAP, Ivy without hesitation stepped up and made sure Bear had his walks and was taken care of. I cannot thank Ivy enough for helping me out on such short notice during such a stressful time. She is truly the best!”
“Us and our dogs love Renee! She is always so accommodating and she takes such great care of our dogs on their walkies when we are working or out of town! We always love and appreciate the updates and photos from their adventure time”
About: I have owned pets my entire life and miss having them around. Timing is not right for me now to have my own so I am opening my life up to caring for others’ pets. I currently work from my home office which allows me flexibility to care for pets periodically throughout the week. Most weekends are open for me. My apartment complex has a fenced play yard for dogs. I also walk for exercise frequently and would take your dog on walks with me.
“Isa did a great job with our dog, Frida. She’s reliable and communicative, and it’s clear from the pictures that all of our animals (dog and 3 cats) wanted to be around her! We recommend her for your dog and cat care needs, and we’ll definitely be rebooking her again.”
“Andrhu is so great with our girls! He plays so well with our social dog so that she is worn out and happy when we get home. For our shy dog, he gives gentle attention and praise, working to form a bond of trust. He was also so thoughtful to stow our Amazon delivery safely out of sight. He really is the best!”
“Rose is highly reliable, prompt, experienced, communicates well & often, handles my large hound skillfully, and is a pleasure to have helping with my dog. I intend to keep booking with her into the foreseeable future.”
“Callie is always on time and very professional. I often have schedule changes and have to book last minute or change bookings around last minute and she makes everything work out whenever possible. Always a pleasure to work with.”
“Raeven is clearly gifted! She is one of the good ones. She is truly a dog whisperer. My dog, Gabby, absolutely loves her like I have never seen her behave with another person save for me and my husband. It makes my heart smile. I know she is being well taken care of and super happy. Raeven is communicative, sends pics, and clearly cares about each animal like they belong to her personally.”
About: My name is Samantha! I am teacher and have breaks to help out other dog owners. I have owned dogs my whole life. I am very safe and responsible and am used to managing 30 kids all day, I can definitely handle a couple pups! I will be very respectful of your time and can be flexible to accommodate you and your pup. I love going in walks, and would love to take yours on safe ones as well. I can do drop in visits and overnights as well, thank you!! I am off for tbe summer so I have lots of time currently! I no longer have pets of my own anymore, so it's even easier for me to make space in my schedule. I have a yard but it is not fully fenced so pets would always be leashed. I no longer have any animals in my home.
“Extremely impressed w/Adam. We’re scheduled to go out of the country for our 10yr anniversary, and had an already booked Rover unfortunately cancel on us so close to our departure week. Scrambling for someone for our 3-fur kids, we combed through the Stellar Sitter list and found Adam. He was quick to respond after we explained our sitch and was also very empathetic. And let’s talk about the meet & greet for an acclimation period, which is our policy. We wanted to ensure the vibe was right, and suffice it to say, the kids LOVED him. He had a very calm and disarming demeanor, and he went down to their level, which we’re sure lent to the seamless intros. We could immediately tell it was going to be the right fit, so we moved forward with the bookings. Adam just successfully completed one week of acclimation period with the kids. He’s very communicative, respectful of property, and very engaging. The kids respond well to him and they’ve been very excited with their interactions. We feel at easy leaving our precious kids in his care. He’s essentially an extension of our pack! He has our highest recommendation. We’ll certainly book with him again!”
“Lauren was quick to notice Riley's patch he had been scratching and took a photo for me. It was a great way to help me see what I was coming home to and how to prep for his care. AWESOME job.”
“Kristen is awesome. Extremely responsible, great with our sometimes difficult husky mix - who always just melts when she sees Kristen. Kristen takes lots of pictures and communicates in a timely manner. Highly recommend!”
“Oh my goodness. What a great human. Emilia was so patient, sitting with my shy dog before going on the walks and she warmed up so well after the patience. I got videos and pictures. Emilia went above and beyond, so grateful!!”
“Francesca was so so great with our pup who definitely takes a minute to warm up. We’re doing a bunch of walks before she stays with her in a few months and are so glad we found her!! Highly recommend and has an energy that our pup loved immediately.”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Algona is $25
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Algona
Gretchen was a life saver! I recently had surgery and was unable to walk my little guys. Gretchen helped me out last minute with walking them. She is friendly and my dogs loved her. They don’t always want to go somewhere without me, but they trotted off without a care!
We needed a dog walker as my husband was recovering from foot surgery and I was leaving town for a few days. Xiaotong did a fantastic job with our pups. She sent lots of photos of their walks. They were thrilled to go with her each day. We will certainly call on her again.
We have been using Adriana for some time now and she is the best. She is so helpful and communicative. My dog was very scared and shy when we started and she took the time to make sure she was comfortable for our walks even with an extra meet n greet. Highly recommend her services to anyone who needs it!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Algona on Rover is $22.2 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 11,816 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Algona. 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 Algona. 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 Algona.

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 Algona. On Rover:
- 92% 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 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.
