“My first meet and greet walk with Austin went great! He seems to have a good understanding and handle of reactive dogs and I’m looking forward to booking more walks.”
“I had such a great experience with Angela while I was away! Communication was always easy and consistent, and I felt very comfortable knowing Max was in good hands. What made me feel even better was seeing how quickly Max got comfortable with her. Every time he saw her, he would wag his tail and get so excited, which gave me so much peace of mind because I could tell he was happy and felt safe with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to walk their dog. I would absolutely use her again anytime I need someone to take care of Max. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him! ❤️”

“Hemei has been great with my dog Kiara! She walks her a 3-4 times a week and is very responsive, professional, and communicative. She is very flexible with her schedule which is amazing since my week to week work schedule sometime varies. Hemei made the extra trek for a meet and greet before starting so that I could rest assured that my dog would be comfortable with her. She is reliable and a true dog lover and you know she will look after your fur baby as her own. Highly recommend her!”

“Janet is an outstanding dog walker! She bonded immediately with our two English Setters, and they happily anticipate her arrival when it is time for a walk to our nearby park. Janet sends us photos, videos, and updates throughout the walk. She keeps up a brisk pace but is sensitive enough to allow the girls to sniff when they wish, without them sneaking any inappropriate "snacks" that might be lingering on the path. Janet has an upbeat personality, and is always on time yet very flexible. We can’t recommend her highly enough!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 2 decades. I’ve helped train dogs, provided prescribed medication, assisted in emergencies and give lots of puppy pats. I’ve worked with 15- year-old chihuahuas and 6 month old Labrador puppies without any issue or worry. Overall, I’ve been a pet owner and understand how important it is to feel comfortable putting your dog in a new situation. So I’m happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. My main priority is that your pet is safe, comfortable and cared for until your return. I’m a freelancer and I usually can work remotely, so I have the freedom to schedule my week as I see fit. That means I can take dogs out multiple times in a day, without it disrupting my schedule. In my home, I live in an apartment which means I take dogs out every 2 hours. Depending on their size and energy I take longer or shorter walks. And at other people homes I’m happy to follow specific instructions but, as my own set of rules, I make sure to clean any messes I find on the property, if a vacuum is available I’m happy to vacuum hair/fur, especially if the pet owner is away for more than 5 days, I’m always available to communicate if any owner wants to check in with me and of course I’m happy to face time if you’d like to check in on your pet. I usually send and end of day message with a picture of your pup and a review of our day.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals since I was 3, especially exotic animals like reptiles and avians. I’m a volunteer at ASPCA shelter now. Although I’ve never had dogs and cats myself, I had some experience of baby sitting them for my friends. I’m a freelancer now, so I’m pretty flexible with my schedule everyday. Feel free to contact me even if it’s the same day work. I’ll make sure I crack the door open a little bit first and always keep the door closed when I clean cat litter or anything to make sure my client’s pet won’t sneak out

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East Elmhurst
Angie was amazing!! She communicated with me clearly and is super articulate. It’s difficult for me to trust because I am a nervous dog Mom, but Angie put my mind at ease. She’s sweet and super caring with my pup. She also scheduled a meet and greet to go over everything I require for walking my pup. So happy I found someone relatable .
I had such a great experience with Angela while I was away! Communication was always easy and consistent, and I felt very comfortable knowing Max was in good hands. What made me feel even better was seeing how quickly Max got comfortable with her. Every time he saw her, he would wag his tail and get so excited, which gave me so much peace of mind because I could tell he was happy and felt safe with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to walk their dog. I would absolutely use her again anytime I need someone to take care of Max. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him! ❤️
Stop scrolling and just book Shamira already. Her communication is lightning-fast, she’s impeccably punctual, and the photo updates she sent gave me total peace of mind while I was out. Most importantly, my dog took to her immediately and always returned home happy, relaxed, and perfectly content. Finding someone this reliable, respectful, and naturally skilled with dogs in the city is rare. Shamira is the real deal, book her before her schedule fills up!
Brandon is amazing! My dogs are a little older and need a little more time to walk, he's patient and caring with them! Responsive and came out of his way to meet my boys before their walk to understand what they need and ask questions to give them the best experience. Highly recommend!

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 East Elmhurst. 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.

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 East Elmhurst. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
