About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and currently help care for a French Bulldog, so I’m used to daily walks, feeding, and just keeping them happy and comfortable. I really enjoy being around dogs and getting to know their personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and will treat your dog like my own while you’re away. I am home full time so my schedule is pretty flexible, I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on what you need. I also can accept last minute availability! I can work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, and play time. I always try to make pets feel comfortable and at home, whether I’m in your space or mine. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so they feel safe and relaxed. I’ll stick to your routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and anything specific your pet needs. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure they’re getting the care and attention they deserve.
“John was wonderful with both our dogs! He was on time, got to know them first, and won them over very quickly. Even our older dog who is very skittish took to John immediately for a walk this week. Would highly recommend!”
“Dolla was excited to see Angela the moment she saw her and I knew it would be a good fit for us. Angela is nice and has a pleasant demeanor and I will work with her again”
About: I've grown up with dogs all of my life. From puppies to seniors, small and big, I've taken care of them all. I've taken care of my dogs after surgeries and kept them comfortable and assisted them getting around safely. I have completed dog training classes with dogs and have taught them tricks! I have a huge place in my heart for all dogs and will take care of your dogs like they're my own! I am currently a stay at home mom with our 5 year old son. I would be available to take care of your dog(s) throughout the day. Israel, Jaxson and I live in a house with a fenced in yard with our 9 year old dog Sophie, a Wheaten Terrier. We love meeting new dogs and enjoy seeing our dog friends return for another visit! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions! I am a Stay At Home Mom with a 5 year old son and our dog, so I am available throughout the day to take care of any new dog friends.

“Anna has been great with our dog Hershey, who can be anxious around new people. She’s patient and understanding, taking the time to make Hershey feel comfortable. We appreciate her reliability and the updates she provides after each walk. Highly recommend!”
“Phyllis has been a godsend!! We have used her twice to care for our dog, Maggie. As soon as we met Phyllis we knew our dog would be in good hands and she was! Phyllis met our dog and us to ensure it was a good fit. She provided consistent update and pictures showing Maggie was doing well. We would highly recommend Phyllis!”
About: I am a happy owner of 3 large dogs- goldendoodles and a labradoodle, along with a cat and a rabbit! I love animals and love being around them and playing with them. I used to co-own an in-your-home pet care business called Mollycoddles. I make trips daily to people's houses to take care of their pets while they're at work or on vacation. I have experience with dogs off all sizes, ages, and conditions. I took a break during 2025 to focus on a new career and just moved to the Darien area from Lisle- so I’m ready to meet some Darien/Willowbrook/DG pups and cats! I work from home most days and care for pets in the mornings or during your lunch breaks! Late night visits can also be arranged with repeat clients! During the summer. Hours can be flexible for visits, especially on weekends. All services will be done in your home- I will travel to you and your pup or cat and take care of them there! No worries of having to pack bags or overnight items. Potty breaks and walks are the best for working paw-rents!
“Sam never fails to go above and beyond with her care. She gives long walks and even takes extra time to sit and give pets and love afterwards (and even checks food and water, how nice!) Our dogs absolutely adore her and she's always so helpful and gives us such peace of mind that our lil pups are in the best of hands. We honestly feel so lucky to have found such a reliable and trustworthy walker to keep our dogs happy while we're away!”
About: I’m a passionate and reliable pet lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I’ve had four dogs of my own, including my current puppy, so I understand the energy, attention, and patience that younger dogs require. I’ve also cared for two senior dogs with health issues, which taught me how to provide gentle, attentive care and manage more complex needs with compassion. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've cared for pets of neighbors, friends and friends of friends! I’m comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, extra playtime, or calm, attentive care, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially during the summer when I’m home from college and able to make it my main focus. I have a very flexible schedule and can plan my day around each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or check ins. Because this is my primary commitment over the summer, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stay consistent with their routines, and be available for a variety of times throughout the day. I prioritize reliability and communication, so you can feel confident your pet is getting the care and attention they deserve. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and needs to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, so they can stay in a familiar environment. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also keeping their space clean and secure. Across all services, I focus on clear communication, dependability, and treating every pet like my own, whether that means energetic playtime for puppies or gentle, attentive care for senior dogs.
“Morgan and John were lifesavers taking our chompy little puppy for a nice long walk to burn some energy in the middle of the day when we had to return back to work full time. We’ll definitely be using them again!”
“Truly the best! Ken has been working with my high energy, rambunctious pitbull mix every week for walks. He is so patient with our baby, and treats him like family. He even spends a little extra time with Kida after his walks to play with him! From the first moment I met Ken, I could tell that he is very passionate with what he does and has a lot of experience working with all sorts of dogs. He is also great with communication and gives me pictures/videos/updates after each walk. Kida blessed to have a friend like Ken around!”
“She is absolutely amazing! She follows instructions perfectly, communicates quickly and clearly, and always prioritizes safety. I really appreciate how she reinforces our dog’s training and handles dogs with so much care and confidence. We trust her completely and feel very lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”

Veronika came to the rescue on very short notice. She handled my very timid chihuahua mix without any difficulty. She arrived right on time, sent photos of each walk with my dog and demonstrated an understanding of my dog's needs with much warmth. I found her to be a trustworthy and capable. I would hire her again without hesitation.

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

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 Burr Ridge. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
