About: Veterinary Technician working towards veterinary school. Prior experience as a kennel technician at a boarding facility. Experience with senior pets, puppies, Medication administration/injectables, and special case animals. My experience with all animal behaviors makes me a great fit for your pet!! I am currently working at a clinic where times vary per week. I usually know my schedule the week before and can update my availability. Always available after 7pm!!! In your home, I will do my best to make your pet feel comfortable before I handle them. This builds trust and will ensure the safety of me and your pet. If I am waking your dog, I will bring extra leads to ensure accidents outside do not occur. Safety of the animal is always my priority.
About: I love animals so much I want to become a veterinarian. I have cared for animals before and have had some of my own. I am just hoping to get as much experience as possible. I am a full time college student and I have some free time after class and on weekends. I love going on walks and lounging around the house. I would enjoy the company of a furry friend to do these things. I have a decent sized home and a good fenced yard for them to roam around in. My house would be their home, they would be free to do as lay around as they please.
About: As a studying veterinary student at Texas Tech University, I have many years of pet experience under my belt! From taking care of horses to dogs to hamsters, I provide the utmost care for any pet that I service. I am currently a studying veterinary student, however, I am available during lunch time, various weekday evenings, and most weekends to service your pet needs! I have pet sat in clients homes numerous times and love the opportunity to play with your fur babies! I have two dogs of my own, a 10yr old Great Pyrenees and 2 yr old blue heeler. Both get along great with other cats and dogs
About: My parents had dogs before they had me - I've always loved them, and as an adult, I have two of my own! I have loved & kept my "first born" alive & thriving from when he was a newborn pup to now 10 years old. Ready to love on your pets like they're my own! I work remotely & make my own schedule. I am very flexible and available, and eager to take long walks/jogs! I'm ready when you are! For two years, I've had to use Rover to take care of my two dogs when needed. I know what it's like to let your precious pups in the care of someone else, and I know how refreshing it is to not have to worry! I will respect your pup's routine & you will feel confident that they're being taken care of by a trustworthy dog-mom.
About: I’ve cared and watched over many different breeds of pets. I am a fond advocate of good animal care and strongly against abuse and neglect of any kind. I’m not biased to only dogs, but love animals of every kind. I’m currently working part time and also attend school, but I am not tied down to a 9-5 so I can generally work around things if need be. I have great time management and work well maintaining a schedule/routine. In my home: I will make sure they are well fed as instructed and get plenty of fresh air and socializing with me. In client’s home: I am great at following directions however the client would like or asks of.
About: Every animal MUST have a collar with a phone number on it in order to board at my house. I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and I am currently working as a professional dog trainer. I have experience with reactive and aggressive dogs, as well as special needs dogs. I have flexible work hours; thus giving me the liberty to cater to YOUR schedule and your dog's routine. As a dog trainer, I understand how important routine and structure is to animals, especially younger puppies or senior dogs! For dog walking, I do offer to do training sessions during the walk (hence why my prices are higher). If your dog has issues with pulling on-leash, this is definitely something I can work on! I tend to wake up early, so each dog has their own outdoor time. Outdoor time is limited during the winter, and always supervised. Under 40 degrees, no dogs are out longer than potty/play requirements. Above 90 degrees, dogs only go outside to potty and play. I train and play with my own dogs daily, but just for safety reasons I do not allow client dogs to play with my own dogs. However, your dog will get individual playtime/sibling playtime, and I will maintain any manners/training by request. (Ex. Huck has to sit by the door before he can go out)
About: I have an affinity with helping those who do not know how to help themselves, especially those who walk on 4 legs and are unable to communicate verbally. I present good and calming energy that all pets enjoy. I work a typical 8-5 Monday- Friday and I am off the weekends. I am able to be flexible and I can complete drop in visits during over night stays. I have no issues checking in and letting your pets out during my lunch break to ensure they are relieved!

About: I have been dog sitting for years now! Ever since I was little I have taken such joy in taking care of dogs! I have two of mine and I absolutely love it.

I will keep pets separated if needed I have extra crates and a spare bedroom. I live in an apartment with a patio but there is a dog park I take my dog to for exercise.

About: Since I was a kid I took care of the pets in my family and have been trusted by friends to help care for theirs when they’ve gone out of town. I have done training with my dogs so I understand dog behavior. I am a college student at Texas Tech and am off for the summer so I have availability any time and any day of the week for the rest of the summer! For my dogs I set up a loving and safe environment for them so they can roam freely. I spend plenty of time ensuring they are happy and healthy.
“We had never used Rover before and reached out to Shilee to help walk and care for our rescue lab we had never left before. She kept me updated and sent pictures. We got home to a happy pup. We will definitely be using her again and recommending to others. She was awesome.”

I promise to make sure they don’t find anything that could possibly hurt them or let them be away from me at any point in time. At any point in time you will be able to contact me for an update, and I’ll automatically provide updates throughout my time with your animals just to ease your mind!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Bishop Hills on Rover is $16.05 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 135 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Bishop Hills. 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 Bishop Hills. 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 Bishop Hills.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
