“Andi was extremely responsive and easy to work with for my last minute dog walking booking! Andi was great with my dog Maddy, and I would definitely book with Andi again.”
“Hope has been fantastic with my easily excitable pup! I was a bit worried because my pup has a tendency to pull on the leash and jump up on others when excited. Hope does a wonderful job of redirecting his behavior while on walks. My pup returns happy after each walk!”
“Renee takes great care of our elder dog, Chuck Norris. With her help, he's been able to go on longer and longer walks, truly enjoying the last bits of life. We are incredible thankful for Renee's continued involvement as our dog walker - she for a phenomenal job.”
“Jeremy is such a reliable and caring person. We left our Claya, our 14-year-old first baby, in his care for eight days—the longest time we’ve ever been apart. Jeremy kept us updated every step of the way, always going above and beyond, even coming in rainy and stormy weather. Thank you so much for all that you do, Jeremy. Best of luck to you, and thank you again!”
“Brooke is the absolute best caretaker for dogs! She's responsive, trustworthy, dependable, and continually provides top care to my puppy! She also provides thorough reports and pictures after every visit which helps reassure that your pet is in loving and responsible hands when you're away from them!”
“Rachel has been wonderful with our dog, Hazel. She’s been taking Hazel on long weekday walks and has truly gone above and beyond. Hazel used to pull and get easily distracted on walks, which made them challenging, and Rachel immediately offered to work with her on loose-leash walking. In just a short time, Hazel has improved so much and is now walking calmly, paying attention, and doing great on leash. Rachel is incredibly kind, patient, and attentive. She sends thoughtful updates and the cutest photos, and Hazel absolutely loves her and gets so excited when she arrives. We’re so grateful to have found Rachel and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog walker.”
About: I have a special place in my heart for dogs! I’ve been around dogs since I can remember. I have taken care of many animals for my own family and friends. I am also college athlete who loves to take dogs on walks as much as I can! I am currently working part time throughout the week but I am very flexible with those times so pet care can fit in very easily. I have a big fenced yard perfect for dogs to run and play! I live on a long street perfect for walks! I can also crate your pup if needed
About: I had a corgi until I was 12 years old who I fed, walked, and played with for much of my childhood. I also have frequently walked my neighbors’ dogs and gone over to feed/watch them when they aren’t at home, including when my neighbor’s golden retriever was still a puppy, although I am also capable of handling big dogs too. I have always loved animals and, especially as an introvert, getting to hang out with them all summer is something I am more than happy to do! I am currently back home for the summer until around mid August, and this is the only form of work I’ll be doing while I’m here. Any activity I want to do is something that can be done at more or less any time, meaning my schedule will be very flexible and able to cater to what you need. I make sure to give the animal as much space as needed before jumping straight in. Some pets are more reserved and it can be tough for them to get used to a new person in their space, so I like to make sure I meet them where they’re at. I ask the owner any questions I have both in advance and also while they’re gone if something comes up. I like to be prepared and know where everything is and how to deal with any situation that might occur, so open communication is something I really strive for.
About: I have five years of experience dog sitting and house sitting for friends and family. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always make it a priority to help them feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m responsible, reliable, and respectful of clients’ homes, and I make sure to follow instructions carefully. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I enjoy spending time with animals. I have experience house sitting and caring for pets while owners are away, and I make it a priority to follow each pet’s normal schedule. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or simply providing companionship, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for. I communicate regularly and can provide updates and photos throughout my visits or stay. I understand that trusting someone with your pets and home is a big decision. I always follow care instructions carefully and make sure pets remain safe, comfortable, and on their usual routine. While house sitting, I keep homes clean, secure, and well cared for, and I treat both pets and property with respect. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and needs, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pets feel loved and you feel that your house safe and secure while away.
About: I love both cats and dogs equally. I am very adaptable, active, and consistent. I would love to provide my services for your pets this summer. I will be working part time this summer from June 18-July 30 as I prepare to move states for law school. During this timeframe, I’d like to make some extra money for school and stay healthy by getting my steps in. My rates are negotiable! I have had a dog since I was 11, and have lived with a cat the past two years. I am cognizant of feeding and potty schedules, pet energy levels, animal care, etc.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Cottage Lake on Rover is $33.3 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 .

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 Cottage Lake. 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 Cottage Lake.

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 Cottage Lake. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
