About: I’ve owned and cared for animals my whole life. I started pet-sitting in high school, ranging from brief visits with cool cats to house-sitting with feisty fidos. I’m a fan of any and all animals! My schedule is very open most days. I currently have commitments 7-9pm on Tuesdays, and 8am-12pm Wednesdays and Fridays. I’m open to working early mornings ☀️ I keep treats on me to reward positive behavior. I’m not usually especially stern with animals, but can be if given the instruction. I make sure to keep houses clean and tidy.
About: After traveling thousands of miles and leaving my home country, I also had to leave my little pet in the care of the most important person in my life, my mom. My dog has always been my greatest emotional support, and being apart from him inspired me to stay connected to the love, energy, and purity that pets bring into our lives. I want to care for your pets as if they were my own, giving them all the affection, attention, and respect they deserve. I am currently dedicating myself full-time to pet care. This allows me to be 100% available to take care of your pets throughout the week. For now, I’m available 24/7 and fully committed to giving them the attention and care they need. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness while in your home. I ensure they’re in a familiar environment, maintaining their routine to reduce any stress.

I respect your home, following any specific guidelines you provide, and ensure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. My goal is to create a trustworthy and safe experience for both you and your furry friend!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so taking care of animals has always been a normal part of my life. I’ve cared for my cat, Lincoln, for the past six or seven years, especially when my parents are away. I genuinely love being around animals and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well taken care of.

I would treat them like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’d follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, and playtime, while making sure they always have fresh water and a clean space. I’m also comfortable with the extra care older dogs may need. I’d respect the owner’s home, follow any instructions they leave, and keep them updated so they can feel at ease knowing their pets are in good hands.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Aurora
Morgan was fantastic! She came reliably as promised, on time every day we agreed on for the week of dog walking. Her communication was excellent, and she worked very well with our somewhat challenging dogs, showing patience, persistence, and creativity to get them to trust her. She walked them for the full hour I had asked for, even though the weather was very hot and humid. But she showed good judgement on the day that a thunderstorm hit during the walk, and my dogs were scared of the storm. That day she wisely brought them home early. She communicated all of this very clearly and in a timely manner, using Rover report cards immediately after every walk. I hope we have another opportunity to have Morgan care for our pets, because she did such an excellent job.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Aurora is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 Aurora. 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 Aurora 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 Aurora. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
