“Lexi has been a tremendous help! I am unable to take my dog on walks due to an injury and she’s been taking him out and about for me! He loves his walks I’m so glad she’s can get him out of the house when I can’t! My dog loves it!”
“We’ve used Vivian multiple times and she’s been great every time. Tobie loves his walks with her and always comes home happy. We really appreciate her consistency and care!”
“Amazing! I cannot thank Courtney enough for taking such good care of both of our animals. I will definitely use her again if we ever go out of town. Made our trip so much more fun knowing we didn’t have to worry about our girls getting good love and care. Cannot recommend enough!”
“Stephanie has been reliable, a great communicator, and our dog loves her! She gives him plenty of water breaks on their walks together. I’m so happy we have found her! I recommend her to anyone who needs a kind person to help out with their pets.”
About: Hi, I’m Liz! I’m the proud human of two dogs—an anxious Dachshund/Jack Russell mix and a floofy energy-ball Corgi —which means I have extensive experience in both being bossed around by a moody sausage and trying to keep up with a potato who has approximately 47,000 thoughts per minute! I absolutely love dogs and genuinely believe they are our most precious family members. My own pups are spoiled, loved beyond measure, talked to way too much, and make up more photos in my camera roll than people do. So when your dog is in my care, you can expect plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and—when appropriate—a completely reasonable amount of treats. (I will, of course, follow your rules. I promise not to undermine your parenting.) I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful. I want you to feel confident that your furry family member is safe, happy, and getting lots of attention while you’re away. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routine, favorite activities, and all of their adorable little quirks. I will meet them where they are. Is your dog a professional cuddler? Excellent. A walking enthusiast? Let’s go! A little shy and needs time to warm up? No problem. Convinced they are the CEO of the household? I’m familiar with that dynamic! I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet gets the kind of individualized care I’d want for my own boys. My goal is simple: when you’re away, I want your dog to be safe and happy. I want them to be thrilled to see you, but relieved they spent time with a friend. I’d love to meet your four-legged family members and give them all the love and attention they deserve! My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care a meaningful part of my day. I have two dogs of my own, so caring for pets is already a natural part of my daily routine—from morning walks and feeding to playtime, cuddles, and making sure they get plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I have flexibility in my schedule right now, I’m able to give your pets the time and attention they deserve rather than trying to squeeze their care in around a hectic schedule. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. I also understand that consistency is important to pets. I’m happy to follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in their/your home, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their people are away. I live in a clean and clutter-free apartment with a dog park, so I am happy to care for a single dog in my home, if needed, or I’m happy to come to your home to keep your pet comfortable and happy in the environment they know. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll make sure they get exercise, playtime, attention, fresh water, and potty breaks. For in-home or overnight care, I’ll keep their normal feeding, sleeping, and activity routines and make sure they get plenty of companionship and affection. I’m also very respectful of your home and your instructions. I’ll carefully follow any special directions you provide, including medications, feeding requirements, behavioral considerations, or things your pet may be nervous or uncomfortable around. Communication is important to me, too. I’ll keep you updated and send pictures so you can relax knowing your furry family member is doing well.
“Savanna was prompt and great with communication! So good with our girl and loved getting the updates. Will definitely be using again for walks in the future.”
“Rose is awesome! She has truly been a blessing to help with my dogs while am at work. She is courteous and professional. She is also very kind and display thoughtful consideration for the need of my dogs. I am truly grateful that she accepted my request to care for my dogs!!”
“TONYA IS AMAZING. with my new job position I am at work much longer than before and Tonya has helped me so much with taking care of my pup. My pup has separation anxiety as well and he seems to be doing really well with her stopping by. I have full trust in her that my dog is taken care. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!”
“Cameron is great and dependable for walks with our dogs. Our dogs love him and look forward to the walks when we are not able to. Nice to have confidence that he will take care of our guys.”
“Jaycie is amazing! She goes above and beyond what is expected as a dog walker. It always gives me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring and dependable hands. She is so kind, attentive, and always keeps me updated along the way. My pup is always super excited to see her.”
“I have had Kara walk my Solita twice now and she is excellent . Kara always communicates well with us and is incredibly professional . Kara takes great care of my pup and is someone who I would trust with any pup. I highly recommend Kara to anyone who is looking for a responsible, trustworthy , and professional dog walker.”
“Dezerae has been great walking my dogs. Even my normally fearful Chihuahua has taken to her kind spirit quickly, which is a feat in and of itself. Would recommend Dezerae to anyone!”
About: I have previously volunteered with a county SPCA organization taking dogs out for car rides and walks. And giving cats the love they needed during a very unsettled time for them. In homes, I have cared for up to 3 dogs (each about 100 pounds) and cats at a time, dropping in two or three times a day when the owners were away for work or vacations. I would refill food and water, play with the animals, and let them out for toilet breaks/ clean the litter box, and water plants. I have had dogs for about 10 years, and I have dog/cat sat on and off while going to school for just as long. I have also aced Rover's Safety Quiz for recognizing behaviors and keeping your animal safe. I work part-time leaving ample time to do pop-ins and walks. I'm available: Mon-Thurs: before 8:45am and after 1pm Fri and Sat: before 8:45am and after 6:30pm Sun: All day I prefer to meet you and your animals first, so that we can establish trust and go over any specifics for your fur baby. Taking care of animals in their usual environment allows them not to stray from routine and gives them a sense of ease. And, you can rest easy knowing that when we are on a walk I am only walking your fur babies.
“I am very happy with Tyson and Adrienne's first visit with Kira & Riley. The portal through Rover made it easy to communicate. Pictures were taken during the visit and the "kids...dogs" looked happy.”
About: Hi! My name is Dani, and I’m currently a graduate student looking to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely love — caring for animals. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and since high school I’ve volunteered at animal shelters helping care for dogs and cats of all personalities and needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets, and I always treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, sticking to routines, or just making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I truly put care and attention into every visit. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and experienced with animals that are shy, energetic, anxious, or need a little extra love. As a grad student, I also have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to your pets and give them the care they deserve. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! As a graduate student completing my degree online, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to your pets throughout the day. I also go to the gym daily for about an hour and a half, which fits easily into my routine while still allowing plenty of availability for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, drop-ins, and overnight care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I love being able to spend my time with pets while also earning extra income during grad school. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I always follow routines carefully, pay close attention to behavior and surroundings, and make responsible decisions to keep everyone safe — including your pets, your home, and myself. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, or needs extra patience, I provide attentive and compassionate care at all times.

About: I've had dogs and cats usually both at the same time as my children were growing up. Since early 70's. I loved them and they seem to like me ok. The last dog I had was a Border Collie rescue that I adopted in Omaha 2017 she was found in Louisiana. Her and I moved to Colorado in 2020. She was very sweet and also loved other animals in the building where we lived including cats. Sadly, she passed 2024. We could communicate just with body language and looking into each other's eyes as I spoke to her. I still interact with all the dogs in the building when I see them. We would also go on hikes up at Palmer Park on the off-leash dog trail. Made a lot of friends with dogs there as well. I now live with my children and their 3 cats. They are very sweet also. Lots of cuddle time. Our pets just need love and attention and know that we care. So, I do tend to spoil them while abiding by the rules. I do have obligations a couple of times a week during the day. I'm usually gone about 2-3 hours when that happens. Evening meetings twice a month for couple of hours. I will do errands and help friends out from time to time. However, when I am scheduled to take care of a pet I work my schedule around them. Thursday mornings are the only day I cannot reschedule but I'm only gone for 2-3 hours average. Take the dogs for walks if client wishes / allows. Pay attention to cats and dogs so they don't feel alone. Stick to the routine the clients have set for them. Also change cats litter boxes when needed.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Black Forest is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Black Forest
Cassie has been an incredible dog walker for my service dog, Reina, on Mondays and Fridays. Her reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for animals have given me complete peace of mind knowing Reina was in such caring hands. Over the time she worked with us, Cassie built a wonderful bond with Reina and always went above and beyond to ensure she was happy, safe, and well cared for. Her kindness, patience, and dedication never went unnoticed. Reina and I are truly saddened to see Cassie leave, but we are so grateful for everything she has done for us. While we will miss her tremendously, we wish her nothing but success, happiness, and exciting new adventures in this next chapter of her life. Thank you, Cassie, for your outstanding care, friendship, and commitment. You have made a lasting impact on both of us, and we will always be grateful. ❤️🐾

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 Black Forest. 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.

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.
