“Jason was awesome with our dog! He is super responsive, easy-going, and you could tell he cares about making sure he follows all the owners requests. He came out of his way to meet us beforehand which helped me feel more comfortable with a new dog walker, especially since beagles have some quirks ;) Douglas had a great time with Jason and we will be sure to book with him again in the future!”
About: I had 2 dogs growing up, and helped my parents take care of them. My parents were busy most days, so I was the one who would take them for walks. My dog recently got his teeth removed, so I also learned how to take care of him and how to feed him properly with that in mind. I’ve also had to take care of both dogs when my parents are out of town, taking them outside, administering medication, and feeding and providing water for them. I have done the same for my grandparents. I love animals a lot, and I volunteered at animal shelters in high school and can properly care for and clean up after many pets.. I’m currently taking all of my classes online, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I can be available at any needed times, both weekdays and weekends. I will provide food and water according to instructions. I will keep a clean, safe, and loving environment, and ensure that they get time to play and exercise regularly. I’m great at following instructions, and I am very attentive to any special requests that are given by the owner.
“Karina was delightful to meet and she did a great job with our two dogs. She went the extra mile for us by doing it all on a short notice. We really appreciated her being available to lend a walking foot so we could go to Chicago for the day.”
“We recently had the pleasure of working with Amy and Lamar to care for our dog, Ralph, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. They consistently went above and beyond—giving him extra-long walks and even taking care of his feeding schedule twice a day, which gave us so much peace of mind. What truly stood out was Lamar’s work on training during his time with Ralph. His calm, confident approach made an immediate impact, and we are amazed at how responsive Ralph is to his guidance. It’s clear that both Amy and Lamar have a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of how to connect with them. We are incredibly grateful for their reliability, professionalism, and the affection they showed Ralph. We highly recommend Amy and Lamar to anyone looking for dedicated and trustworthy dog walkers, and we absolutely plan to use their services again in the future!”
“Diana was prompt, responsive and reliable! She was great to work with and I felt so much relief leaving my pets in good hands while I was away. Thank you Diana! Will absolutely rebook soon”
“Luna loved Nataliia! She was so sweet with her and listened to all the care instructions for Luna. She was responsive, professional and shared details and photos! We can’t wait fo for her to come back.”
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: I've been caring for dogs since I was young, starting with my neighbor's Old English Sheepdog. Today, I'm the go-to sitter my sister relies on to care for her little fluffball, whether it's for an evening away or extended vacations. I'm comfortable providing consistent, attentive care for every pet -- and following your every instruction to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you're away. I currently work a flexible, non-traditional schedule that includes fantasy illustration projects and teaching art classes. This gives me built-in gaps during the day that I'd love to fill with dog care, whether that means walks, playtime, or multi-day companionship. Your dog's routine and well-being are my top priorities. I make sure that your dog gets the best care possible and will follow all instructions to the letter: setting phone alarms to ensure potty breaks and meals happen right on time, monitoring treats so your dog is neither over- nor under-indulged, and sticking closely to established sleep schedules. I'm equally respectful of your home, taking care to leave it as clean and orderly (or better) than when I arrived.
“Christina is awesome. She takes my 5 month old puppy on walks, and she absolutely loves her. She gives updates as well so I know she’s in good hands while I’m gone at work.”
About: I've taken care of my families dogs for 10 years and just moved out and could use some doggy time, my 16 year old dog Ellie has passed away recently I have experience with dealing with older dogs because of her I'm working part-time at a retirement home so I have plenty of time to take your furry friends on a stroll, I do stand up and improv comedy so I'm not free late nights but most days I'm free till 5:30 I unfortunately am not allowed to have dogs in my apartment but because of that I'm more than willing to travel to your house to spend some time with your puppies!
About: I have had at least two dogs at a time throughout my entire life, ranging from mid size mutt to large Bernese Mountain Dog, and from puppy to senior age. I am equipped to handle dogs of all kinds of temperaments and sizes for whatever your canine-related needs might be. Open to work nearly every day of the week for walking, drop in visits, or dog sitting. I currently have a part time job that takes up many weekdays during the evening, however outside of 5 days a week evenings I am free pretty much all day to be able to help out with pets. I have two dogs at home anyways that I need to take care of. I am a very non invasive person who does not seek to invade on yours or the dogs space. I am looking to connect with any animal I might take care of and develop a relationship with them.
“Paige is extremely kind, reliable, flexible, and responsible. She did three walks a day with our dog, Ralph, for over two weeks. She was very understanding about the many changes in our schedule that we made during that time. I am so grateful to have found her and look forward to working with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Paige! - NanC, Jerry, and Jessica”
About: I've been taking care of pets since I was 8. We got my first dog when I was three. He winked at me on the way home so I named him Winky. My favorite photo is of me napping on the couch with WInky in the 60's. Since then, I've had a love for dogs. But since my son has an allergy, I can't have a dog right now. I would love to walk your dog! I'm currently semi-retired so I have time to walk dogs. I need to walk every day so I'm happy to take on this role. I can't have dogs at my house due to my son's allergy. I can come to your dog. I am a trustworthy and prompt person (always on time!). I am gentle with all dogs and, if I may say so myself, dogs love me.
About: I love animals and grew up with a miniature schnauzer and have babysat/ walked dogs for my family and friends when I can help out. I work as a night shift nurse so I am unable to own a pet at the moment unfortunately but I would like to adopt or own as soon as possible. I’m an open book so me any questions you might have :) I work three 12 hours shifts a week. I would babysit/ take care of dogs on one of the days on one of the days I have off. I live in a clean and dog friendly townhome with a fenced in yard to play with them in. I would ensure to take dogs out to potty as often is necessary :)
About: I’ve taken care of different types of dogs since I was 14. I had a golden doodle pet of my own for 12 years. I have given injections and pills to dogs. I have been trusted to take care of dogs with epilepsy and diabetes. I have plenty of time to be with your animals. I love cuddling with them and won’t have a problem having them in my bed. I am from Riverwoods and it is soon to be my senior year in college but I have time off now. I also love being active and outside. I have no concerns about anxious dogs and I know they will warm up to me with time. I can crate your dog if needed. For extra outdoor time, I have a a zip line cord to connect to a collar that prevents them from going past a certain point in the backyard since we do not have a fenced in yard. They can roam around there.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for 35 years. I currently have a German Shepherd and a domestic short hair cat. I volunteer at the humane society socializing cats. I am retired and have time and love enough to care for your small dog or cat. We travel a bit but am available when in town. I’m available for drop in visits or overnights. I am experienced keeping an active dog entertained. I can take small dogs for walks in your neighborhood

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bannockburn
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.
Erin is the first person I’ve used with River & I couldn’t be happier! Erin has been great taking my dog, Bruce, for walks. She’s on time & very communicative, I love seeing the pictures after she’s done. I’m a big fan, but I think my dog might be a bigger one! Highly recommend!

The average cost for Dog Walking in Bannockburn 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 .

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 Bannockburn. 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 Bannockburn.

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:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
