About: I am available in the evenings and weekends so I can be with your pets at all time and tend to their needs. I have owned dogs my whole life as well as cats. I have also grown up on a farm so I am very comfortable caring for large farm animals as well. I have 2 dogs of my own who are both very dog friendly and 1 cat who sometimes thinks she's a dog but doesn't care for other cats as she was attacked by other cats before we took her in. I love all animals and breeds don't matter to me. Your fur child will be treated and cared for like they are my own! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have long leads, go for walks and go to the dog parks frequently so your pet would get plenty of exercise.
“From the minute our dog met Morgan I could tell things would go well. Morgan was very timely and sent pictures and details about each visit with our dog Leo. I was out of town and when I asked if she could do a couple of extra things to care for Leo she happily agreed. She is very trustworthy, attentive to details and caring. I look forward to having her help with Leo again in the future.”

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I’m a professional canine trainer, behaviorist, groomer, and full-time caretaker with 12 years of hands-on experience. I’m certified in dog behavior, temperament, body language, and care—so I understand what dogs need to feel safe, confident, and happy. I create enriching, balanced environments where every dog can thrive. From playful activities to structured downtime and personalized attention for pups with unique needs, I tailor each day to your dog’s individual personality. With me, your furry family member is treated like my own—showered with love, positive guidance, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! I give every dog my full attention, making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Most days, you’ll find us outside soaking up the fresh air—running, playing, and exploring together. And if you ever wonder where I am, I’m probably out back with the pack having a blast. When winter hits, we move the fun into our heated, pup-friendly garage. It’s set up just for them, with turf or rubber mats for comfort and tons of toys to keep tails wagging. No matter the weather, your dog will always have a cozy, engaging, and joyful space to call their home-away-from-home. Your pup’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 700 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:
- 97% 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.
