About: I grew up with a house full of pets including cats, dogs, and budgies. Currently I have my own cat Cloe and a turtle named Joe. I have experience caring for my elderly childhood cat who requires chemo pills, laxatives, and special food. Im currently searching for employment so my schedule is completely open. Can work weekends and weekdays at any time, preferably weekdays 10 am to 5pm. At my apartment I care for my 4 year old feline. She likes to play with her string toy and watch cat tv. Shes very food motivated so we always have treats on hand. At my parents house we have a fenced in backyard for the dog and lots of indoor space for their 4 cats. My childhood cat needs medication and special food so he is fed seperately from the other 3 cats. Every cat i've ever owend has been exclusively indoor.

About: Pets have been a big part of my life, and I know the difference between a pet who is just being watched and one who is truly cared for. I currently share my home with a cat, so daily care is second nature to me: feeding on schedule, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and the small routines cats count on.Especially Anxious (i know when your gargoyle wants to lurk-and when the rubs are needed. I’ve had two dogs, and both taught me a lot. My first, Ed, was an 80-pound American Foxhound rescued as a suspected abandoned hunting dog who had never lived indoors. Together we worked through house training, leash manners (no more yanking), a fear of stairs (which involved carrying him up three flights until he stopped being scared), and a distaste for rain. His name was not what he was rescued with, but he was clearly always an Ed. With my second dog, Kovu, I spent a lot of time on socialization with other dogs and on keeping him calm and quiet when left alone. Because of that, I’m patient with nervous, rigid, big dogs, and dogs still learning the rules. I know that consistency and a calm presence go a long way. All Creatures Welcome! Friends have long turned to me for help with their pets, whether furry, scaly, feathered, or creepy-crawly. I’m happy to talk through any pet’s needs, so ask me about yours. I’d love to meet you and your pet before booking. Send me a message and tell me about them! I am a remote worker with a need for reliable wifi more than happy to drop-in, sleepover, or sit for a while with my laptop on your couch. Clear updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away Strict adherence to your pet’s feeding, medication, and walking routines A calm, patient approach tailored to your pet’s personality

“Emma was kind, patient, thoughtful and all around great with my sometimes reactive 50 pound rescue dog ( my dog gets nervous around other dogs sometimes due to previous dog attacks). I highly recommend Emma for dog walking. She made my girl feel protected and what is more loved during the walks which is highly appreciated. Hire her today before someone else does!! Five stars.”

“Alex was great. I appreciated that he took the initiative to schedule a meet and greet before walking Shadow. I got a good vibe from our conversation and meet and greet. Alex seemed comfortable with instructions on handling Shadow's fear/aggression reaction to other dogs. And he was amenable to feeding Shadow on walk day as my neighbor, who usually feeds my animals when I'm away, had a conflict. I was so grateful for that! Lastly, I appreciated the update given with Shadow's walk, letting me know that everything had gone well. I will use Alex again when needed, and highly recommend him to others.”

About: I have a passion for all animals and 3 years of experience. I have an older dog myself and I am very comfortable working with animals of all ages. I am currently home from college on summer break with a very flexible schedule that can be tailored to any and all needs a pet may have. I'm all about making your pets day. It's already hard enough on them not having their favorite people home so anything I can do to bring them enjoyment and pass the time brings me so much pleasure.

About: I enjoy pet sitting and have tried to do it consistently as I can for the past 5 years. I am responsible and experienced. I have experience with domestic pets and turtles. I have a lot of experience with households with multiple dogs or a combination of pets such as cats and turtles or dogs and rabbits. I have other contract type jobs, but I really enjoy pet sitting and try to do it as much as possible. It is a consistent part of my week. I will always focus my energy on the pets in my clients home while I’m there. I will live my life on the schedule they are on to the best of my ability.

About: I've taken care of pets since I was a teenager. As a family, we've had several different dogs over the years to take care of. My most recent pet had a heart murmur and needed a lot of care and attention and I enjoyed providing it. I have a full time job M-F, but I am usually home on weekdays around 4:30 pm. I am mostly home on weekends hanging out with family. I live in a townhouse and have a fenced small yard, no grass. Typically I would make sure the pet is fed and walked in the morning and if it needs play time I would schedule it for the afternoon after I get home from work.

“Courtney was amazing! We had 13 long visits required over several days while we were away on a very important business trip. Courtney handled everything in a extremely competent and professional manner, keeping us informed while allowing us to do what we had to do on our trip. One of our dogs had a health issue and she even handled that in amazing fashion. Knowledgeable. Experienced. Reliable. Trustworthy. Communicative. And the dogs (and cats) loved her. Priceless peace of mind for us while away! Totally recommended. We’ll be back!”

I treat each pet as family, ensuring they're well loved and cared for ❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I can adjust my visits if needed. I’m also available during most weekends for care. I stick to your pets schedule, providing walks, meals, and play at times they’re familiar with. I ensure they’re comfortable and loved while you're away.

“We absolutely LOVE Hannah! She showed up every single day last week at 1 p.m. and was always right on time. Our puppy absolutely adores her, and it’s easy to see why. She’s such a delight and makes sure he gets plenty of walking, playtime, and love. Her visits are the highlight of his day while we’re working, and knowing he’s happy and in such good hands gives us so much peace of mind. She even went above and beyond when our puppy got into something and cleaned up the mess for us. That extra care means so much! Hannah is dependable, thoughtful, and just wonderful with our puppy. We’d happily have her care for him any time, day or night, and recommend her to absolutely everyone. Truly 10/10—we’re so grateful she’s our dog walker!”

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for animals, including horses, farm animals, cats, and even exotic species, I bring a wealth of knowledge and dedication to the table. As the proud owner of a two-year-old dachshund, whom I've raised from the tender age of 7 weeks, I understand the importance of providing reliable and attentive care. Your beloved furry companion will receive the utmost care, attention, and affection, ensuring their well-being and happiness. Trust me to provide a professional and personalized experience for your pet's needs. I currently have a job where I can work from home, so I have a pretty free schedule when it comes to necessary and extra pet care. In my home, I provide a cozy and welcoming environment for pets under my care. I ensure that they have their own designated space with comfortable bedding, toys, and access to fresh water. Regular feeding schedules are followed, taking into account any specific dietary requirements or restrictions. Daily exercise and playtime sessions are incorporated into their routine to keep them active and engaged. I also maintain a clean and hygienic living space, regularly attending to litter boxes, cleaning cages, and disposing of waste appropriately. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I prioritize creating a familiar and stress-free environment for them. I adhere to their usual routines as closely as possible, maintaining consistent feeding times and following any specific instructions provided by the client. I make sure to spend quality time with the pets, offering companionship, playtime, and lots of affection. Additionally, I am attentive to their safety and security, ensuring that doors and gates are properly secured and any potential hazards are eliminated.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and older pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m great at picking up on individual needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, handling clean-up routines, or giving pets the one-on-one attention they deserve. I am free most weekdays after 3pm and open on weekends. I can guarantee you my undivided attention to your pets. I will make sure they are taken care of wonderfully. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and calm space with plenty of love and attention. I follow their routines carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space, follow all instructions, and ensure their pet feels secure and cared for. Clear communication and gentle, attentive care help build trust every step of the way.

About: Hi! I’m Laura, a veterinarian from Colombia with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly love. Because of my veterinary background, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, ages, and needs. I can also help with basic medications and special care when needed. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and I always take the time to make pets feel safe and comfortable. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pet with love, respect, and plenty of attention. 🐾❤️ I currently work four days a week with a rotating schedule, usually from 8 AM to 6 PM. My days off vary each week, but I have good availability on my days off for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and pet care. I’m also available in the evenings after work on some days. I’m happy to coordinate with each pet parent’s schedule and provide reliable, loving care for their pets. 🐾❤️. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. As a veterinarian, I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats and understanding their individual needs and behaviors. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where your pet can feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. ❤️🐾

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 7–10 years, looking after the animals and homes of friends, family, and neighbors who know they can rely on me. I believe every pet has different needs, so I take the time to get to know them, follow their routines, and give them the attention they’re comfortable with. I’ll send daily pictures and updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel at ease while you’re away. If there’s something specific you’d like me to do, I’ll make sure it gets done, and if I’m ever unsure about something, I’ll ask. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and in good hands. I work early mornings at Starbucks, so I’m used to getting up early and planning my day around a schedule. When it comes to caring for your pet, I want to understand their specific needs and routine rather than take a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits, I’ll do my best to accommodate their schedule and make sure they get the care they need. I believe it’s important to communicate with you, follow your instructions, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I believe pets feel most comfortable when their routines and surroundings stay familiar, so I’m happy to care for them in their own home. I treat every home with respect and make sure to follow the owner’s instructions, whether that means feeding schedules, walks, medications, or specific safety precautions. I take the time to understand what each pet needs, respect their boundaries, and ask questions whenever I’m unsure about something. I want you to feel comfortable trusting me with your pet and your home, knowing that I’ll treat both with care and respect while you’re away.

Daniel took me on a fabulous 1.4-mile adventure! I inspected the countryside, left three important pee-mails, deposited one official statement, encountered a suspicious snake, and conducted diplomatic relations with a very affectionate horse. Daniel was an excellent chauffeur, photographer, and security detail. I returned home exhausted from my important work. Five paws! Would hire again!

I had plans fall through with late notice and needed a few days of dog walks for my 7mo puppy who is going through his second fear phase. Plus, there wasn’t time to meet Kendall ahead of time, or even be there when she met him for the first time. She did an AWESOME job easing in with my pup and getting his trust so quickly, and the second day he was already excited waiting for her return. Feeling so relieved and grateful for her, and this first experience with Rover in general.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Brookfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Brookfield is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 15,506 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Brookfield. 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 Brookfield. 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.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Brookfield after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 Brookfield. On Rover:

  • 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
