“Can’t say enough good things!! Communication was excellent. Reliable and prompt. We had a wonderful four days of dog walking. In fact, I think my dog is sad that he’s back to having me walk him. 🤷♀️”
“Amy has walked our greyhound Benny for a few months now and it's going great. She also gives him his mid day meds. Now that the weather is nice, Benny loves laying in the yard for a stretch and she accommodates him. He's a very happy dog when she comes to walk him. I Highly recommend Amy!”
“Nataliia is wonderful! Extremely responsive and provided detailed reports and photos of her walks with Bessie. Our dog loves her and we will be reaching out to her in the future! Thanks so much Nataliia!!”
“Despite feeling under the weather today and it being rainy day outside, Jason came out and walked Ralph three times today as scheduled. He went above and beyond to ensure that Ralph’s needs were met and took the time to share important information and adorable photos with us. Jason is a kind and responsible person who you can rely upon to take excellent care of your furry family members.”
About: I’ve taken care of and loved dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. From puppies/kittens to seniors and in between. And all sizes! I also have experience with special needs dogs, including my own collie who had lower jaw removal surgery. I’ve had 2 cats in this time from when they were young to seniors. I recently adopted 2 young cats who love people. For dogs, I’ve adopted dogs of all different ages with various health needs. I only occasionally go into the office and work from home Mon - Fri. I’m used to having multiple animals so I’m comfortable with whatever their schedule may need. I want to follow the routine you have created and anything else to make sure they feel comfortable in my home or yours. They will get lots of love and attention from me during our time together!
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was young, starting with my neighbor's Old English Sheepdog. Today, I'm the go-to sitter my sister relies on to care for her little fluffball, whether it's for an evening away or extended vacations. I'm comfortable providing consistent, attentive care for every pet -- and following your every instruction to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you're away. I currently work a flexible, non-traditional schedule that includes fantasy illustration projects and teaching art classes. This gives me built-in gaps during the day that I'd love to fill with dog care, whether that means walks, playtime, or multi-day companionship. Your dog's routine and well-being are my top priorities. I make sure that your dog gets the best care possible and will follow all instructions to the letter: setting phone alarms to ensure potty breaks and meals happen right on time, monitoring treats so your dog is neither over- nor under-indulged, and sticking closely to established sleep schedules. I'm equally respectful of your home, taking care to leave it as clean and orderly (or better) than when I arrived.
About: Hi, I’m Soojin! I recently moved to the Deerfield area and I truly love dogs, cats, and all animals. I have many years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from curious little puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a bit more patience and gentle attention. Rover isn’t about money for me. It’s about sharing love and comfort with animals I miss so much since moving away from my own dogs in Korea. I enjoy calm walks, quiet companionship, and warm cuddles with furry friends. I would be so happy to give your pet the same care and affection I would give my own. My work schedule is flexible and my husband stays in home since he works in remote. We prefer to have dogs in weekend but weekdays are also fine! We have a green yard back of our place so dogs can easily go out for a walk. I have many experiences with senior dogs who doesn't want to go out very often, so I can fit any routine they need.

“Hanna helps us out on an emergency basis and has been amazing! She has been so accommodating with unique requests, is super responsive and takes great care of our pup. Thank you, Hanna!”

I’ve had experience staying overnight at clients’ homes to care for their pets, making sure they’re comfortable and following their normal routines while their owners are away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Deerfield
Chloe was great with Ellie and I am sure Ellie would give her four stars…. and bunches of puppy kisses. Chloe impressed me with her punctuality and positive energy. Most remarkable was her determination to get to Ellie on time last Monday despite the ongoing major storm. She faught thru severe weather and hazardous driving conditions to get to Ellie and keep her calm and safe. If I could give Chloe a medal I would but will have to settle for a tip to say thank you so very much.
Erin is the first person I’ve used with River & I couldn’t be happier! Erin has been great taking my dog, Bruce, for walks. She’s on time & very communicative, I love seeing the pictures after she’s done. I’m a big fan, but I think my dog might be a bigger one! Highly recommend!
Shannon was absolutely wonderful with our dog Mabel this week! Mabel is blind, so she needs extra care and patience, and Shannon handled everything beautifully. She was always on time, gave detailed and thoughtful updates after each walk, and treated Mabel with so much kindness and attention. It gave us total peace of mind knowing Mabel was in such capable hands. We’re so grateful for Shannon and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional dog walker!

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 Deerfield. 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 Deerfield.

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 Deerfield. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
