“Tammy was so great with my Bella girl while I was gone. I was super nervous about leaving her for the first time for 2 weeks and having Tammy really put me at ease. She was super great with Bella and really took the time and care to make sure she was cared for on the walks!☺️”

“Cherie was amazing while caring for/walking my dear Abuelo. He has since transitioned above. Cherie accommodated my crazy work schedule which was a huge help! Always a great communicator & updated me when needed. Cherie will always be considered a member of Abuelos Village who cared for him. Thankful we met. Blessing to all the future fur babies 🐾”

About: I have a special love for animals and have been relied on by friends and family for many years to help out with their pets when needed. I am able to take care of pets of any age or breed, but am especially good with senior care. I am available to come help out after 5pm during the week, outside of my other job hours, and am available all day on the weekends. We have a fenced in backyard at home for when we had dogs to let outside. We now just have cats, and spend time playing with them, cleaning litter boxes, and loving them.
About: I grew up with a Shih Tzu (Scruffy) for 15 years and absolutely loved him. I’m very comfortable around dogs and am looking forward to getting my dog time in :) I also volunteer at the Twin Cities Pet Rescue as a supply donation coordinator. I have a full-time job Monday-Friday, so I am available after work around 4pm to walk your dog as well as anytime on the weekends. I live in a house with a nice outdoor patio, and I live by a variety of parks and walk paths. It is a very safe neighborhood as well.

“Winnie Lu , had such a good week walking with Lindy. She got the job done, and was so reassuring that Winnie was going to be walked while her mommy was out of town.”

About: Hi! I’m Steph — a full-time pet caregiver through Rover and the heart behind a growing pet photography business. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have experience with all kinds of animals, from high-energy pups to quiet companions. I share my life with my dog Scooby, who’s a big lovebug and gets along great with both people and other animals, and two leopard geckos, Helios and Haku, who each have their own little quirks and charm. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have hands-on experience with pet nutrition and wellness—I've worked with a variety of healthy foods, natural supplements, and holistic care routines. I’m great at picking up on subtle signs when something’s off and take pet health seriously. Whether we’re playing fetch, going for a walk, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m all about creating a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always follow your instructions to a T—because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels loved, understood, and completely at ease while you’re away. I am very flexible with my schedule so please feel free to send me a request or a direct message to sent up an appointment! I have worked with certified fear free trainers as well as being a groomer for 3 years now I am very aware of animal body language and how to meet their needs so they feel safe in their environment. I do have a dachshund mix named Scooby that is incredibly friendly with Small to XL dogs. She’s always up for having a play date!
“Nicole was great with our 100 pound dog. He really enjoyed his walks with her. She was very flexible & able to walk him even in poor weather. She was very dependable, which was a comfort to us. She also had great communication & lots pictures letting us know he was doing well.”

About: Hi! I’m Isabelle, and if there’s an animal in the room, chances are you’ll find me hanging out with it. I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all kinds. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or your cat prefers a quiet companion and some extra treats, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I know every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and spoil them with lots of love and attention! I have a very flexible schedule and am able to accommodate a wide range of days and times, including weekdays, weekends, and last minute requests when needed. I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets get consistent, reliable care whenever you need it I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. This includes feeding them on schedule, making sure they get exercise and playtime, keeping their space clean, and giving them lots of love and attention. I always pay close attention to their behavior and needs so they stay happy and comfortable while their owners are away.
About: Hello! My name is Steph and I have been caring for animals my whole life. I would love to meet your pets and give you one less thing to worry about while you’re away. I have had dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, geckos, bearded dragons and a tarantula. I am experienced with animals that have special needs and sigh administering medications. I work from home most days and my schedule is flexible. I also have a list of trusted back-up pet sitters that are able to fill in if your needs don’t align perfectly with my availability. I am happy to provide drop-in or stay-in care for your animals. Your pets will be cared for just as you would. They will get the love and attention that they deserve.
“Steve was wonderful with Mac over the past few weeks. He took excellent care of him and paid close attention to Mac’s cues, helping him feel safe and happy during their walks. Mac was always happy to see Steve at the door—a sure sign he was having a fun time. Thanks again, Steve! :)”

About: My husband and I grew up with dogs our whole lives and we owned a small dog for 15 years. We are often one our neighbors and relatives call when they need a pet sitter. We are excited to meet new dogs and families and offer pet care. Our home is warm and welcoming and we like to give pets a lot of attention. We feel they are a part of our family when they are with us. You will receive pictures and regular updates while your dog is with us, so you can be reassured your pets are having a wonderful vacation too. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members! My husband works from home. I work from home at times and we have two older kids who are often home to help too. We are never away for more than 4 hours at a time. We follow the owner’s preferences. We will use leashes, harnesses, etc. when on walks. We will administer medications as needed. Dogs can sleep in our beds.
About: I was lucky to grow up in a dog-loving family. We had an high-energy English setter named Cooper growing up, and my parents currently have a sweet golden retriever Bodie who is 11. They also had another golden Louie who we lost unexpectedly this past summer ❤️🩹 We miss him a ton. I lived with my parents and helped raise Bodie and Louie and now have a 6-month old golden of my own Sonny! (Can you tell we love a golden retriever?) Our pups have given me great experience caring for high energy dogs as well as calm ones. As a dog walker I will make sure your pup gets exercise and is taken care of when we get back home. Nothing is more important to me than making sure your fur babies get the love and care they deserve. I also have had experience house and dog sitting for families when they are on vacation. I will make sure your pets have ample time to roam around, as well as guarantee that your home is clean and taken care of when you are out of town on weekends. I currently work full time remotely, so I am available early mornings, lunch, or evenings and weekends. Depending on the circumstances I do have some flexibility to stop by and check on your pet midday. I live in a two-story twin home with a good amount of living space for your pet to roam around, yet is still contained for their safety. I have a fenced in backyard and live in an area with great, safe walking trails! Along with that, I also have a 6-month old golden retriever puppy who loves to play with other dogs!
About: Howdy howdy! I currently work 36 hours per week within the disabled community. I help folks with disabilities get out into the community and discover their passions! My job is my favorite thing, and coming home to a sweet pet and - quite frankly, a bed nicer than mine, is always going to be welcomed! I spend most of my off hours training my rescue Shibas. I am a tv show connoisseur as well! I provide stability and consistency. I also do provide cuddling services if so requested by your pet. Thanks for reading and reach out with any questions! ** in case you are wondering the story behind photo 7, sweet Bianca gets really scared of fireworks and thunder, she has a favorite spot in the bathroom and I didn’t want her to be alone! So I camped in the bathroom with her and brought in the trusty ol kindle. :) I work full time within the community to help disabled communities. I work Monday-Friday typically between 32-40 hours weekly outside of the home. I love coming home to a new face & sticking to a dog’s regular routine. Willing to wake up early for a good walk and some quality time on the couch when dinner comes! When taking care of a clients pet, I try not to stray from their routine and lots of loving. I am extremely patient and will give any dog the time they need to warm up to me - I’m a stranger! By the end of my stay, your dog will miss me when I go out the door - guaranteed by all paws I’ve dogsat for already!

About: I’ve grown up with and loved dogs my whole life! Most of my experience has been with larger dogs, but I’ve also cared for plenty of smaller dogs through friends.

I’m comfortable with all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’ll make sure they’re happy and healthy while you’re away! My schedule is currently pretty open, so whether you’d like a mid workday check in or a morning/ afternoon walk I’ll be there! Same goes for longer stays! Your pet’s safety and comfort is number 1!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Chanhassen on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,444 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Chanhassen. 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 Chanhassen. 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 Chanhassen.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Chanhassen. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
