About: My doggies taught me everything I know. They are no longer here - they went to doggy heaven and we miss them all the time. My teens and I have a lot love to give and want to share with your doggy. You can rest assured we would treat your doggy as if it were ours. Also, anything under 10.5 miles for more than 1 day I offer pick up and dropp off. I work from home and have a very tight routine in our home that will help your pet feel calm and secure. Since pets thrive on routine it will bring them peace and calmness. I can give extra walks when it's a nice day and make sure we stay active if need or relaxed and enjoying a lazy "dog day". I have a quiet, grassy backyard that gives dogs a calm place to sniff, stretch their legs, and enjoy fresh air. It's a low-stress space that's great for potty breaks and relaxed outdoor time. I'm very mindful of which dogs are a good fit for my space and always put safety and comfort first so that your pups feel happy and at ease while they're with me. Doggies are allowed on our beds and couches and even our bathrooms :) - we keep a light sense of humor

About: My name is Justin and I'm a professional actor, traveling the world! I'm a big animal lover, a true dog person, and I'd love to spend time with your doggo. Over the pandemic, my family got a beautiful black Labrador puppy (Lucy), and I ended up being the one to train her. I discovered I not only enjoy spending most of my time with dogs, but I have a knack for giving them friendly discipline, keeping them engaged, and helping them learn obedience. I've watched dogs for many friends over the years, and feel confident I can show some love to pups all over the world. love taking walks (and runs) with dogs, playing fetch, and most definitely flying a frisbee around the yard. Things I offer in my time with your pet: - Attentive and engaged - optimal interaction with your dog based on your/their needs - Active - let's tucker your pupper out, doing what they enjoy most (running, walking, swimming, fetch, etc.) - Socialization - depending on your dogs comfort interacting with the outside world, I feel confident bringing your dog into public areas under a watchful eye and allowing them to connect with other dogs and loving humans. Always ready to separate a negative connection if need be. - Discipline/Obedience - I am more than happy to spend time reinforcing any training the dog is working through or learning with a trainer or from you! - Housesitting! Happy to spend the night with your doge and keep them company! ...As long as there are no cats at the house too, sorry cat families :( Let's connect! I'm sure it'll be a treat! As an actor, my schedule is always in flux. However, when I'm not doing a gig, my schedule is pretty flexible and open! Let's connect and I'm sure we can work something out. Mornings and daytimes are always great for me. In other people's homes, I am diligent about observing cleanliness and safety, and following instruction about closed off areas, eating schedules, portion sizes, and access points a pet may try to exit from. Be as clear as you can with what you're looking for, and I will follow it to a "T"!

About: I've taken care of dogs pretty much non-stop since 2003. I take the welfare of any animal very seriously and promise to be attentive to all your pet's needs. My #1 goal is your peace of mind while away from your fur kids or any other animal family members. I'm retired and working part-time. A job that involves caring for animals is by far my preferred option, and making sure I'm available to devote my full attention to pet care is very important to me. If I were lucky enough for you to entrust your pet(s) to my care, he, she, or they would be my #1 priority. I pay close attention to the welfare of any pets entrusted to my care, including my own, of course. They're always the center of attention, and I am always focused on being responsive to their needs.

About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was in elementary school. I’ve been responsible for things like feeding them, walking them, and taking them out at night and in the morning Right now, my only commitments are on Sunday mornings, when I teach religious school in Deerfield. I’m looking for my next full time job currently, and heard about Rover through word of mouth. I’ll take your dog out first thing in the morning and last thing before bed. I’ll feed them right after they go out in the morning, and before I have dinner myself. I’ll also walk them at least once a day, weather dependent

About: Hi everyone! I am a teacher & dog mama who is looking to keep busy this summer and help take care of your fur babies! I have been helping take care of pets and house-sitting for over 8 years. I’ve had both dogs and a cat as pets so I am very familiar & comfortable with them. I have experience with caring for dogs starting at 8 weeks up until their senior years, so I know how important it is to stick to a schedule when it comes to potty breaks or medication. Since I am a teacher, I have most of the summer completely free on the week days and weekends other than a few weeks where I will be traveling. I am able to stay at your home all day and night if needed, to help watch over fur baby. I ensure that your pet stays comfortable in your own home by respecting their space and boundaries at all times. If you have a pet that is a bit shy towards new people, I do my best to give them space and not overwhelm them with my presence. I will stick to any schedule you may have to ensure that your pet has an easy transition while you are away.

About: I’ve taken care of many different furry friends since I was 14. As soon as I moved in with my roommates I was more open to taking care different types of pets. I do have a morning job. I am available after 3:30pm. Just give me a heads up if you’re interested so I can work around my schedule. I am looking to further my knowledge on taking care of many different loving animals. I’m excited to meet new furry friends and reptiles! I will always stay on top of your pets schedule, weather it’s walking them on a specific time or feeding them. I always pay attention to certain requirements your pet needs.

About: The dogs I have taken care of have always received excellent tlc. I am able to use commands, for example sit, stay, and place! I have experience with senior dogs administering oral medication. I will keep a close eye on the geriatric dogs and make sure they don’t have any issues. I am very flexible when it comes to caring for pets. I’ll be able to get to the pets as soon as I get off of work. If I don’t work then I’ll usually be open all day. I work 7a-3p. I’m off Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. Unfortunately I cannot provide boarding in my apartment because it’s a 2 pet policy. When I’m in the clients home I’ll let the pet roam freely. I will also pick up after they do their business. I feel that a dog and human bond is really unbreakable, so I will be comfortable with any pet that I connect with. I’ll also need to know where things are, I.e food, treats, leash.

About: I've owned two dogs and cared for both from puppyhood through their senior years, so I'm familiar with the different needs that come with each stage of life. My second dog also managed to get into more than a few unexpected situations, which taught me to pay close attention, stay calm, and recognize when something doesn't seem right. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I've dog sat for a number of others, each with their own personalities, routines, and preferences. I know every dog is different, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel comfortable and happy. I treat every dog in my care like they're my own and always do my best to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I currently work at Starbucks as a supervisor. I have semi-flexible hours and given enough notice I can make myself more available. (3 or so weeks) I always work try and work my schedule around yours. I typically work 8 hours a day and can’t usually step away to do a pop in during that time. I always strive to leave your home as you left it and your pups happy to see you arrive home again! If you need me to do house duties while I’m there I will do my best to assist with it.

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have been walking/sitting since high school. I have walked dogs of all sizes and even those that are reactive. I've lived in two big cities so I am used to walk dogs in busy environments! I am currently unemployed so I am fully available to help out with your pups! I also have a car here so distance to you is not a problem! My #1 priority is your pups and my safety on our walks. I will never put us in a situation that could go bad. I will also prioritize having your pup trust me on our walks so everything goes smoothly, so if possible meeting your dog prior to our first walk if I have to grab them when you aren't home.

Chloe was great with Ellie and I am sure Ellie would give her four stars…. and bunches of puppy kisses. Chloe impressed me with her punctuality and positive energy. Most remarkable was her determination to get to Ellie on time last Monday despite the ongoing major storm. She faught thru severe weather and hazardous driving conditions to get to Ellie and keep her calm and safe. If I could give Chloe a medal I would but will have to settle for a tip to say thank you so very much.

Sarah was a fantastic sitter for Milo. She checked in with us almost every time she interacted with Milo, giving extra time for belly scratches and letting us know when it seemed like wasn’t eating enough. I would strongly recommend her.

She did an amazing job with our pup. He is a 99 lb, scared (at first), and sensitive puppy. She was very sweet with him and game him all the time and treats he needed on the walk. Will definitely book again.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Bannockburn

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Bannockburn is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 12,257 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Bannockburn. 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 Bannockburn. 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 Bannockburn 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 Bannockburn. On Rover:

  • 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
