“Debbie has worked with us for about 2 years and has been great with our dog! Our dog started out as a very shy puppy that was scared to be walked down the street and with Debbie’s patients and kindness he now loves to explore on his walks. Debbie is the best dog walker you can find”
“Justin did a great job walking Stu while we were out of town and Stu was staying at our cousins house. The communication was outstanding and we couldn’t ask for a more professional, kind person. Thanks very much Justin! We appreciate you!”

About: I’ve had pets (dogs of all sizes and cats) my whole life and currently have two corgis. If there’s a dog or cat in a room, that’s where you’ll find me. I follow your instructions to a T because I believe the way you need pet care doesn’t stop when you leave for a trip. Also available for emergency drop ins and help, because you never know when life get crazy. Having pets myself, pet care it’s my routine! I focus my day around making sure pet’s needs are met, as well as try to go above and beyond to make them as happy as they make us. I follow your instructions to a T - if you need/want your pets cared for in a certain way, I’ll make sure that it’s done just as you need!
“Our two wild animals had a great time on their walks with Sabrina. She treated them like they were her own fur babies and it’s such a relief to know that she’s around! We came home to two very happy, clearly well taken care of pups. We are so thankful!”
About: Thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Katie, and I am here to help you with your furry family members! I've been a pet owner for 20+ years. I've owned a cat and 5 dogs to date! I have always considered my pets family and have gone above and beyond to ensure they receive exceptional care. I have cared for pets of all different ages and sizes, including puppies and elderly pets needing special care. I have a calm and caring demeanor, which allows me to easily connect with new fur babies. I offer housesitting and can watch your pet from the comfort of their home. I also offer drop-ins and love to walk dogs (all sizes & breeds)! It would be great to be able to show you how well I can care for your furry family member! I treat all pets like they are my own! Please send me a message with any questions you might have. Please Note: I do require a meet and greet with all new clients. Safety is very important to me. My schedule is fairly open & I am able to help almost anytime Monday - Sunday. In most instances, I can rearrange my schedule to fit yours. I will ensure I am always in the same vicinity of your pet when visiting your home. I can crate your pet if needed and always make sure they are leashed before leaving your home with them. Please reach out if you have any specific questions. Thank you!
About: We have three dogs who are more spoiled than our children. We dont like people, but we love animals 🤣. We love walking and playing, and so do our pups! Our babies are spoiled rotten and we can't help it. Our pups have their own doggie pool that they can use any time in the summer. We have tons of toys and one of our favorite things to do is just be home with them and de stress. We sometimes go to the dog park or take walks on the Black River Trail, too! We care for our own fur babies every day, having extra in the house is just an added bonus. Our animals are loved all day long, and we promise to deliver the same to yours. We have a large fully fenced in yard in a rural area, so we have lots of room for running! Our pups go in and out as often as they want. We do allow pets on the furniture, always! ***FOR FULL TRANSPARENCY *** We do require all dogs who are boarding in our home to eat and sleep in a crate, as well as be in their crate if we need to leave the house for any reason. This is strictly for safety reasons to keep all dogs and our children safe. We understand that not everyone is a fan of crating their dog, and we would never do so without consent. This is non negotiable. If you feel strongly your dog does not require needed a crate please reach out to me and we can talk as I do make very rare exceptions. If your pup shows behavioral issues that make it difficult to maintain safety, such as biting or excessive aggressiveness, we will add on an extra charge to the booking. This is almost never an issue, and we are able to separate dogs as needed. When staying in our home, your pups safety is always our number one priority.
About: I worked on a farm when I was in high school where I worked with horses, goats, cats, dogs, and so much more! I’ve also worked as a kennel tech at Sit Means Sit dog training for 4 years. No matter how big or small, I can’t wait to meet them! I’m currently in school and looking for a side hustle to keep busy throughout the day as I finish my last online classes! I’m free all week! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience working with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I always make sure they receive attentive, loving care. I will follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while they’re in my care.
About: I have always had a fond love for animals. I enjoy catering to their needs as applicable, as well as servicing their busy owners as needed. I am a college student that is currently in between semesters. I have free time to service pet owner's beloved animals as needed. I have an open and flexible schedule. I live a couple doors down from a large, enclosed space for your animals to run with me. I am an avid runner, and enjoy having a partner to increase my running pace.
About: I’ve always been around animals from a young age, many tend to gravitate towards me. Caring for them is something I’ve always loved to do. I work full time but I’m available anytime after 3:30 pm on weekdays and fully available on weekends as I get those off. I’ll have more availability during the summer months I will always provide timely bathroom breaks and ample amounts of exercise. I will also stick to any routine that you have your pets on.
About: With three years of experience as a veterinary assistant, I have developed strong skills in pet care, handling, and health monitoring. I am comfortable administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable. My background in a clinical setting means I understand the importance of proper nutrition, exercise, and individualized care for each pet. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or providing companionship, I prioritize their well-being and treat every pet as if they were my own. As an online student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive pet care. I can adjust my availability to meet your pet’s needs, whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or last-minute requests. My open schedule ensures that your pets receive consistent care and attention whenever you need it. I care for pets in my client’s home by following their routine to ensure comfort and consistency. This includes feeding, fresh water, exercise, and playtime tailored to their needs. I provide medication if needed, clean up after them, and monitor their health and behavior. My goal is to keep them safe, happy, and stress-free while their owners are away.
About: I’ve grown up with animals in my life since I was born and my mom worked at a Vet Clinic for 13 years so I’ve seen my fair share of all sorts of breeds! From little Pugs to giant Cane Corsos! I’m up for anything and happy to help in anyway I can! I am usually free throughout the week especially with a heads up I should have no problems being able to help you out with whatever needs to be done! And I’ll be happy doing it! I have a dog named Motley who is 4 years old! She’s a mutt but we love her so much and she gets along well with other animals. Sometimes she’s a bit excited with new people/ animals but she is crate trained and potty trained so shouldn’t be a problem!
About: Hi, nice to meet you! Please call me Eliza. Firstly, thank you for considering me to take care of your fur-babies while you're away. Here's a little bit about me and my history with pet care. When I was little, I always knew I wanted to work with animals in some capacity. My journey with pet care began when I was 12 years old. One of my neighbors had a black lab puppy that they never let inside & never had company. One day, I walked up to their door, knocked & asked them to hire me to walk their dog everyday. I never looked back. Since then, friends, family, neighbors & strangers alike have entrusted me with all of their pet's needs. When considering booking with me, please keep in mind that I also work 35 hours a week, giving me plenty of time to pay attention to your pets. I do not have breed restrictions & am happy to work with any special needs or requirements your pet may have. FOR ALL NEW CLIENTS, I do require a meet & greet before booking to ensure that everyone (including your pet) is comfortable and to be able to ask/answer any questions we may have for each other. I've found this helps to ensure trust between all of us. Please be upfront with any triggers or quirks so I know exactly how to take care of your pet. *The meet & greet is a FREE service to ensure we're all a good fit for each other before the stay. For the time being, I do not offer boarding in my home. During my stay with your pets, I provide the utmost care & attention to your pet & their needs. My main priorities are making sure your pet is as safe & as comfortable as possible in an already anxious situation with their parents being away. Thank you so much for considering me to take care of your fur-babies while you're away.
About: I have experience with dogs my entire life from daily care routine to caring for senior dogs. Your member of the family would be treated very well and we are able to care for dogs that require special attention. Your dog would not go more than 2-4 hours without someone supervising them. I would make sure your animal is safe. The world class care your fur baby would get would be unmatched. My doggies are literally spoiled but well behaved. They are sweet so there will be plenty of attention and exercise for your loved one. ❤️❤️❤️
About: I have had numerous dogs over the years, from rescue to purebred, ranging from 8 weeks old to adopting a rescue at 4 years old. I have worked with potty training my dog, to helping my rescue dog realize she's safe now and loved. Lucy is my dog I have now, she is a rescue and the sweetest dog I've had. I am happy to offer professional dog walking and drop-in services. I am currently available Monday-Fridays, morning and lunchtime walks, and all day on Saturdays. My dog walking and drop-in includes walking, spending time with your dog, making sure they have fresh water and food if they need to be fed. I like to meet with you and your dog before I start so they become familiar with me. During this meet and greet I can find out if there are specific needs (oral medications, puppy training, senior dog) you would like me to do while I’m there. I provide updates when I arrive and when I leave letting you know how they are doing. I look forward to meeting you and can be trusted to follow the instructions you provide for the best care and safety for your family dog.
About: I have worked in the animal care industry since I was 14 years old. I grew up with my mother whom bred and showed various different breeds of dogs as well as we kept a small mixed livestock farm. I have worked as an equine manager, I have worked at TSC, and currently am employed at a veterinary clinic where I was originally working with boarders. My skills include basic training, basic grooming, administering preventatives and medication (including insulin), providing effective and safe restraint, and I have taken multiple educational courses on animal welfare, behavior, and stress-free approach to handling. I work full time, but only mid day so I am more than capable of doing morning and afternoon visits as well as mid day on the weekends. I take care of animals the same way I would want to be cared for: with patience, kindness and love but above all safely. Working at a veterinary clinic I have learned a great amount about safe animal care (including with reactive animals).
About: Hello pet owners! My name is Kylie, and I am a lover of all animals. I currently have 2 cats that are 7 years old, a Black Lab pup that is 6, a Hound dog that is 4 and our most recent rescue is a Pitbull pup that is 10 months old. I have also raised 2 other rescues that I had the joy of having from the time they were pups though their senior years. I have 20+ years of experience in animal care and would love to take care of your family members. I am currently a full time teacher looking to work with part time with your pet. I am currently able to do pet care in your home. At this time I am not able to take care of pets in our home. We are still working with the new rescue dog and getting him adapted to our home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Black River 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 117 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Black River. 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 Black River. 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 Black River.

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.
