About: Ive adored animals of all kinds my whole life and have rescued and cared for several. I have pets of my own, including: 1 dog, 3 cats (one of which is a super senior) . I also have experience in both pet rodent & reptile care. My extended family has trusted me to care for their pets on various occasions over time. I pride myself in continuously educating myself on all sorts of animals and my ability to determine your pets needs, wants and mood. I want nothing more than your fur baby to stay comfortable, happy and healthy. I follow directions well and have no problem adapting to your and your pets needs. I have plenty of free time to help care for your furry friends. My partner travels around the NWA, SWMO and SEOK areas for work and I intend to do the same. I read and follow directions well and can adapt to your pet needs as they come and of course respect your home rules as needed.

Kaitlin was great! She hustled over to my apartment in a snowstorm and walked my boy almost 2 miles! Which he super needed. He came back ready for a nap. Communication was great. Super friendly. Would love to have her walk Apollo again.

About: I provide fun playtime and activities. I have been a lifelong pet owner in the past of Cinnamon, a rescued soft coated wheaten terrier whom we adopted since he was 3 months old. I currently assist my husband with his flooring business preparing emails with estimates and details about the process. My time is certainly flexible due to being an assistant. I do not own a fenced yard, but I live in a safe neighborhood where one can walk on the sidewalks without worrying about other animals being aggressive. There’s several people who own small dogs.

About: I’ve had a lifelong passion for caring for animals and have grown up around pets from an early age. For the past 3 years, I’ve also cared for and trained my own dog, giving me hands-on experience with daily care routines, behavior management, and creating a safe, loving environment for pets. I’m currently on summer break from my role as a substitute teacher, which allows me to have a flexible and open schedule for pet care services. Aside from two previously scheduled trips this summer, I am available to provide reliable, attentive care and ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with a fully fenced backyard that allows for secure outdoor play and exercise. My home is shared with two friendly, well-socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other pets and help create a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. I also have crates available if needed, whether for your pet’s established routine, comfort, training preferences, or safe rest time. My goal is to ensure every dog feels secure, cared for, and right at home during their stay.

About: I have worked with animals most of my life. I have experience administering medication of all types. When I pet sit I will run, walk, and/or continue training with dogs and puppies. I will take the time to learn what both you and your beloved pet need while you are gone and update you as much as you prefer. ❤️ I am striving to turn working and caring for dogs into my full-time career. I love caring for dogs in my home and offering my clients detailed communication regarding their dog(s) while away. I gladly accept reactive dogs, special needs dogs, and high energy or high maintenance dogs as I am home full-time. When boarding, big dogs and little dogs are kept separate. During unsupervised times such as when we are sleeping dogs are either in a kennel or allowed to roam the household if they are not destructive and owners are comfortable. Generally, dogs eat twice daily unless otherwise discussed. Medications are given at the times they are needed and each dose is logged in the app for peace of mind. I usually send one or two pictures a each day with a brief update. On occasion I send videos if we are doing something fun. I do work with dogs that are not dog or people friendly. With reactive or unfriedly dogs I ask for a little more notice so I do not book other dogs during that time. Discounts offered, please ask me about them. :)

About: Hi, I’m Cooper. I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who loves both dogs and cats and understands how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone new. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or just calm company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and good at adjusting to each pet’s personality — energetic dogs, shy cats, senior pets, playful puppies, or animals who just need a little extra time to warm up. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and send updates so you always know how they’re doing. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and my goal is simple: your dog or cat gets loving, reliable care, and you get total peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I’m dependable, flexible, and able to plan walks, visits, feeding, and playtime around each pet’s needs. I make sure every pet gets attention, care, and consistency. I care for pets by following the owner’s instructions closely and keeping their routine as normal as possible. In a client’s home, I respect the space, make sure doors and gates are secure, provide fresh water, handle feeding carefully, and give pets calm, attentive care. I focus on safety, comfort, and trust so every dog or cat feels secure while their owner is away.

About: I grew up with many cats and dogs, and love animals of all kinds! My last dog was an 80lb boxer who thought he was a lapdog, I miss him every day! I currently have 3 cats: a spicy little tabby girl named YoYo who is my baby but only on her terms, and my twin orange chunky boys, Comet and Cupid. I would love to give your fur babies the love and attention they need while you need to be away. I am available for drop in visits and dog walking. I work full time as an accountant, but I have flexible schedule most days. I am available for drop-in visits and/or walks before work in the morning, in the evenings after work, and most days mid-day as well. I will do my best to make sure your baby is happy, healthy, and well loved. I have an enclosed kennel that allows my kitties a little outdoor experience while keeping them safe! They are spoiled rotten with toys, things to climb on, and empty boxes which they prefer over any bed lol I enjoy play time with my kitties as well as snuggles as often as they need. I also have experience caring for and playing with a hyper, muscular dog who enjoyed tug of war and walks.

Your fur baby will spend all day with me, my little boy and our 4 year old, ultra sweet border collie, piper If needed, we have a dog crate for sleeping in, but your dog is welcome to sleep in whatever arrangement he or she is used to. I prefer to host dogs at my home, but I can come to you too, so long as it's not too far away. I hope to see you soon! I am currently a stay at home mom and typically home nearly all day.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 827 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Decatur. 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 Decatur. 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 Decatur.

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 Decatur. On Rover:

  • 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
