“Tyler will continue to be my go to dog walker when I need help getting my 2 dogs their daily exercise. My pups are spoiled with daily outings , and dog park trips - we usually average 6-8 miles per day but often hit 10-12 miles once or twice every week…. with Tyler, I have peace of mind and confidence that my dogs will get a walk and the type of exercise they are accustomed to. They always return content , satisfied and most importantly exhausted! Thanks again Tyler!”
About: I’m recently unemployed and looking to get my steps in and earn some dollar tree money! I have experience running a BOOMING neighborhood dog walking business in the 90s! Also the proud owner of 1 Bombay cat. Not much specialized experience, but wide open availability to help at run of the mill drop ins and/or walks. Hope to meet you! Newly unemployed, so availability is quite literally wide open! I would like to avoid far drives. Would love some weekly walking jobs (rather, my fitness app would love) I will follow your instructions and treat your family members how I treat my own! I am not well versed with special care but am willing to try and learn
“Five stars for sure! Amanda walked our dog a couple times a week for several months (until we moved to a far away suburb). She was so fabulous with our quirky, senior dog - he absolutely loved her. Don’t hesitate to book! Thanks Amanda!”
About: I have had cats and dogs in my household my entire life, I take care of them at home and also for many neighbors, and they continue to request my services. I love Animals I take car of the pets in our house and enjoy hanging out with them on a daily basis. I watch pets in our neighborhood almost every week as our neighbors have come to enjoy and rely on my pet care services I have watched pets in my home but have additionally visited neighbors and stayed at their home to watch pets overnight. I am comfortable caring for pets in any of these enviroments.
“Wow! What an incredible dog walker! Carolina went above and beyond, she provided detailed and adorable updates, provided her own water and bowl for the walks and sent many pictures and a video. She even sang Happy Birthday to my dog when I let her know it was her birthday. This is the person you want spoiling your dog!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about 8 or 9, mostly family dogs to start. I have also house sat for not only family dogs but friends as well. I work at a doggie daycare facility currently, so I am familiar with dog behaviors and care. I currently work full-time in evenings, so that gives plenty of morning time for walks and cuddles. I am available for both boarding and daily care most of my week and always try to be flexible with clients. I love to have animals be as comfortable as they can be in their owners home, whatever that might look like. My goal is to make the clients and dogs as comfortable as possibly while building trust and good relationship.
About: I have always loved being around dogs! I had a pup in my family for about 5 years when I was younger. Other than him I enjoy my family and friend’s dogs. I love taking them out for potty breaks and walks. I have house/dog sat multiple times for my family members. Treats are my love language and I never mind cleaning up accidents! I currently work full time but I get done with my days around noon. My schedule can be flexible if I get noticed ahead of time. I also travel for work. It’s not often but I will give a good heads up! Dogs will always be on a lease with me, unless trusted in a dog park. I take child and others safety seriously when it comes to public interactions.
About: *** I now travel for clients for stays 2+ weeks. Pricing TBD. Thank you!*** That title quote was from a former employer, owner of a pet care company. She turned to me when all else failed. Best compliment, ever! I meet with first time clients to get the lay of the land. We go over everything from vet contact info, to the everyday things- food, exercise, the chasing of squirrels. :) Schedule is tailored to your munchkins needs. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to come and go when doing overnights. We can discuss. I do not do boarding. I only sit in my clients homes, where their pets are usually the happiest. Just like us! (Their own bed, blankie and bowl!)
About: Hi there! I’m Macy, a veterinary student at the University of Minnesota with over 8 years of hands-on experience working with animals. I’m passionate about what I do and truly love spending time with pets of all shapes and sizes! As a future vet, I bring a deeper understanding of animal behavior, health, and safety to every walk or visit. Whether your dog is young and full of energy or older and needs a little extra care, I’ve got the knowledge and experience to keep them happy and comfortable. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes—including strong pups over 70 pounds—and I’m happy to walk multiple dogs or visit as often as needed for walks, feeding, or check-ins. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priorities, and I’ll always treat them like one of my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! As a veterinary student, my schedule can vary throughout the school year—some weeks are busier, while others are more open. That said, I’m often able to work pet care into my routine between classes and clinicals. During the summer, my schedule is much more open, and I have lots of availability for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. I’m happy to be flexible and do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs! As a veterinary student with years of experience working in veterinary clinics, I have the knowledge and training to care for pets in a variety of situations and ensure their safety and well-being during drop-in visits and walks. Whether I’m stopping by your home to feed, check in, or take your dog for a walk, I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, health, and happiness. I’m confident handling pets of all sizes and temperaments and can provide extra attention or care as needed—especially for pets with medical needs or special routines. I aim to make each visit a positive experience, offering reliable, loving care while you’re away.
“Emily was incredibly patient and caring for my two dogs. My boy can be a bit fussy and my girl is terminally ill. Emily always checked in and made sure that my requests were met and went above and beyond to make sure my little girl was ok. It was a great relief to have her help while I also had an extra dog in the house and to know the dogs were getting exercise and extra attention.”
“Carley was amazing! She did a fantastic job taking care of my 85 pound German Wirehaired Pointer named Moose. She is always on time, super flexible, and went above and beyond with Moose. Her updates were thorough, and it’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she works with. Highly recommend!”
About: With 11 years of hands-on experience caring for both my own pets and others’, I specialize in cats and dogs — I know how to read their body language, keep them comfortable, and stick to their routines. Since I work from home, your pet gets consistent attention throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. And because I don’t have other pets in my home, your pet gets my full, undivided attention — no competing for space, food, or affection with a resident animal. Pet care fits naturally into my everyday life, not just around it. My work is flexible, so I’m either home or able to come back frequently throughout the day — your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. I’m available all seven days of the week, so there’s no gap in coverage between weekdays and weekends. Boarding • Your pet stays in my home with no other pets competing for attention. I keep feeding and routines on schedule, and since I work from home, someone’s around for most of the day. Drop-ins • I follow whatever routine you’ve set — feeding, medication, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, and playtime — with a photo update after each visit. Walks • One walk a day, paced to your pet’s comfort level, on-leash and supervised the whole time. I pay close attention to their cues, especially with cats and small-to-medium dogs, where I have the most hands-on experience. House-sitting • I usually do NOT stay at clients homes overnight or for extended periods during the day! • I will check in with your pets in the AM/PM (as needed) and follow their routines so their schedule is consistent, and provide photos throughout the stay. *Every visit ends with a photo, so you always know your pet is happy and cared for.
“Helen did a wonderful job working with my senior pitbull’s quirky little personality, and habits. She also sent quite a few really nice photos, of Maya, through the Rover app. Thanks!”

Marni was great with Logan! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly really cares about animals. Logan was comfortable with her and well taken care of, and it was nice knowing I didn’t have to worry about him while I was away. I’d definitely trust her with him again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring.
Tyler is an absolute dog lover, and it truly shows in the way he cares for Maple. He is extremely responsive, responsible, flexible, and always willing to go above and beyond to accommodate a request or help in any way he can. I can genuinely tell that Tyler thoroughly enjoys the time he spends with Maple, and knowing she is with him gives me complete peace of mind. I never have to worry when she’s in his care. I especially appreciate how thoughtful he is about making the right decisions and how he consistently keeps Maple’s safety and well-being at the top of his mind. I would give Tyler 5 stars without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, kind, compassionate, attentive, reliable, and supportive dog walker or pet sitter. Thank you so much, Tyler! We greatly appreciate all of your support and, most importantly, all the love and care you give our sweet Maple.

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 Arden Hills. 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
