“Snoopy was crazy about Heidi. It was love at first sight. She took such good care of him like he was her own. I will definitely call on her again. I just wish I could afford it every day. Thank you, Heidi! We really appreciate you. 💜😃🥰”
About: Hi! I'm a dependable, active dog walker who loves spending time outdoors with dogs of all sizes. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, exercise, or just some extra attention while you're away, I'll make sure they're safe, happy, and well cared for. I proudly travel by bicycle, allowing me to provide reliable, eco-friendly dog walks with a focus on my local community. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I’m available 7 days a week and offer flexible scheduling to fit your dog’s needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to work around your schedule. Whether you need a weekday walk or weekend care, I’m available to help! Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and routines. During visits, I'll make sure your dog has fresh water, exercise, attention, and plenty of affection. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your dog is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Wow! Ed has been just amazing. I came back from knee surgery and just wasn’t able to walk my dog . Ed has been so kind. Consistently prompt and incredibly dependable, Ed always was flexible when I needed a schedule flex. He offered really helpful insights for my dog’s aging (he’s almost 17), was always on time and so thoughtful. Ed even brought me a cookie and hauled my empty and full garbage cans to the curb and back! My dog really loved him and I appreciated the updates. I’ve so enjoyed having Ed’s assistance with walking and would highly recommend him for any help you may need with your pets.”
About: Hi! My name is Phouthavone, but I go by Kat! 🐾 I’ve been around and cared for dogs my entire life. I currently have a 7-year-old rescue dog who’s been part of my family for five years, as well as a 2-year-old cat—so I’m very familiar with caring for both dogs and cats and all their different personalities! Both of my fur babies have sensitive stomachs, so I understand how important it is to follow feeding instructions, dietary restrictions, and routines carefully. I’ll make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and well-fed while they’re in my care. I also have previous experience as a human caregiver, which has taught me a lot of skills that transfer naturally into pet care—patience, attentiveness, responsibility, following routines, and making sure the person (or pet!) in my care is comfortable and safe. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and will treat your fur babies like they’re my own. Whether they want playtime, walks, company, or just lots and lots of cuddles, I’m happy to give them all the attention they need. 🐶🐱💕 I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! I currently work part-time, so my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your fur babies! I’m available throughout the week and can work around different feeding, walking, and potty schedules. I’m also happy to spend extra time playing with them or just keeping them company and giving them lots of cuddles. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’ll always follow any instructions you leave for me. I’m very attentive when it comes to feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, medications, walks, and anything else your pet may need. I also have a dog and cat of my own, so I know how nerve-racking it can be trusting someone else with your babies! I’ll treat them like I would want someone to treat mine and keep you updated while you’re away.
About: I have experience caring for newborn puppies, as well as dogs and cats with special needs or medications. I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and making sure pets get the attention and care they need. I also have experience house sitting, so I’m comfortable staying in a client’s home and making sure both their pets and their home are well cared for while they’re away. I’m very attentive and flexible, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m new to the area and currently looking for a full-time position, so my schedule is very flexible right now. I have plenty of availability throughout the week and can easily work pet care into my daily routine. I’m flexible with timing and locations and am happy to accommodate different schedules and the individual needs of each pet. I love having the opportunity to spend my extra time caring for animals, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. I always want pets to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’ll follow their normal routine and any instructions their owner gives me, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or just giving them some extra attention and love. I know every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to get to know their personality and what makes them comfortable. My goal is to make sure they feel happy and cared for while their owner is away and to give the owner peace of mind knowing their pet is in good hands.
“Carla was fantastic. She came to my hotel while on vacation so Cuervo could get some exercise and attention while I did the tourist thing! She kept me updated with photos and texts and was flexible with scheduling. Highly recommended”
“Ben was absolutely fantastic! He walked our 150lbs Great Dane, Walt while we were out of town. We got detailed notes everyday which put us at ease. We’d gladly have Ben back to walk our dog! (Walt also loved Ben and gave him lots of cuddles & licks!)”
“Iris was fantastic! She was able to help out last minute, even though we had never met before, and she immediately put me at ease. She showed up right on time, took great care of Tussey, and sent plenty of pictures during the walk. It was such a relief knowing Tussey was in good hands. Highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!”
“Glen was great with my dog, who needs to have medication twice a day and can't walk very far due to a leg injury. He was also an excellent communicator and very professional! I'm grateful for his services and would definitely recommend him to anyone.”

About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As the owner of three dogs, I have hands-on experience with the daily responsibilities of pet care. Caring for multiple dogs has taught me patience, consistency, and how to manage different personalities and energy levels. I’m available Wednesdays and Fridays after 3:30 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays after 12:00 p.m. I’m dependable, flexible, and committed to giving every pet the care and attention they deserve.

Instagram: cnkphotographymn I work 8-5 during the week, but it is flexible so I can accommodate specific needs depending. Kennels may need to be provided based on size, though I do have my own here. My whole house revolves around the animals. They get to rule all. So toys are everywhere to choose from, and can be restricted based on dogs needs or preferences. They are watched at all times and get solo time out.
“Jessica was great! She was able to fit us in last minute to walk our dogs when we were out of town and it tired both of them out perfectly for our dog sitters. She’s very experienced and I appreciated the pictures and notes about how it all went. I will for sure book with her again!”

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 Bloomington. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
