About: I’m a genuine and dependable animal lover trustworthy and responsible. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I’m happy to follow specific feeding, walking, playtime, and care routines, and I’m especially patient with pets who need extra attention, including young, energetic, shy, or senior pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure their owners can feel confident and at ease while they’re in my care. I am available daily for pet sitting and boarding and dog walking! I love being around animals and will provide a beautiful experience that's safe and trustworthy! I have a fenced yard and live in a pet friendly subdivision with several trails that your pet may enjoy! I love animals and I am taking this as a full time job and following my passion for animal care.
About: I have had cats ever since I was little and have also worked in a cat rehoming and adoption center! I also love dogs and am comfortable walking them and tending to their needs. I’m a teacher on summer break so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets and give them all the attention and care they need! I am not able to board dogs where I currently live (due to my lease) but I can travel to you and give all the services needed! I am comfortable traveling to homes as well as boarding kitties.
About: We have lived with both dogs and cats, plus fish and hamsters, through our entire lives and we look forward to making new pet friends. Hilary: As a home-school mom of teens and young adults I have a flexible schedule so I can work walks and pet check-ins around our other daytime activities. Scott: Semi retired and home based for business, my schedule is flexible. Having pets ourselves, we understand they do best in familiar environments. By caring for them in their own homes it should ease any stress they may have at an owner’s absence.

About: With the exception of a few years during college, I have always had animals in my life! I grew up always having a cat and a dog in the house and taking progressively more responsibility for their care as I got older. Now, I'm owned by two dogs (a boxer mix and a lab mix) and two cats, one of which followed my boxer and I home one day and decided to stay. They are by far the best part of my day. With all these fur babies, I've run the gauntlet of pet care challenges, from pilling cats, to dealing with allergies, to working on behaviors like marking and excessive barking. I don't claim to have it all figured out, but what I do know is that it's made me incredibly patient and compassionate with any animals in my care. Plus I've learned a trick or two along the way! I currently work for myself (from home) as a research consultant. While I do have periodic meetings throughout the week, I usually have a significant amount of flexibility in my schedule during the mornings and afternoons. I often find myself going out on multiple long walks throughout the day and generally finding any excuse I can to be outside. So why not use that time to hang out with some new animal friends? My flexible schedule means that I can accommodate most any pet needs. I go for multiple walks every day both on my own and with my own dogs, so it's easy to incorporate lots of activity in your pet's day. I also have an enclosed front porch that we all love sitting outside in the shade on, just enjoying the fresh air. And on hot days, I even have a kiddie pool that one of my dogs likes to play in to cool off. Both my dogs are very friendly and would love to make new friends! One of my cats even enjoys horsing around with the dogs. My dogs have free reign in the house, but usually hang out with me. I'm happy to have your dog(s) make themself at home as well or to crate them if that's your preference.
About: I have taken care of neighbors, friends, and family’s pets! I have worked in a boarding facility for 1 year and absolutely love all furry friends! I’m currently working part time, so I have extensive availability to play with your pups! I do have trips but I am generally always in the area! I love to run around and play with any furry friends and am willing to do any tasks you need to make sure they are happy!
About: I’ve had dogs since I was born and began caring for them as soon as I was able! I also have pet sat for friends and family in the past and have been doing Rover for around 2 years! I have a strong love for animals and find it hard to pass by a dog or cat or even squirrel in the street without saying hello. I would love to meet more pets and would find joy in taking cute pictures of them and playing with them! I also currently have 3 cats who are the best lil friends ever. I have off on Wednesdays and half days on Fridays which gives me lots of time for animal cuddles! I would love to find some pets to walk/ feed/ play with! In a clients home I would respect their rules and wishes, and ensure I give the pet lots of attention, that they are fed on time, and any medications are given when needed.
About: I have 4+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I’ve done dog walking, feeding, and overnight house sitting. I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I stick to their routines and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I study online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays, and can adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort by following their routine and keeping a calm, clean environment. I’m very attentive, make sure doors are secure, and always supervise pets. I treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages.
About: My daughters complain that their fur babies are spoiled when I return them. (And, they keep asking me to take care of them despite this. ) I prefer it over the Day job, And find the company of pets so rewarding. If I could make pet care a full time job, I would. I welcome them in like guests. But, of course follow instructions given pertaining to their care. I have a soft crate and raised dog beds with covers that can be washed each visit.
About: I have had a lot of animals all throughout my life and am very respectful of their boundaries. I make sure every pet is well loved, respected, and fully taken care with food and water and also walks and treats! I’m available anytime of the day durning the week or weekends, I am very flexible and reliable I have my own vehicle and a valid drivers license. I make sure they have food and water all the time and take them on walks when needed. I make sure they are loved and that all there needs are taken care of and that they have food and water.
About: I have had dogs my whole life along with reptiles I also worked as a dog bather and take care of my family and friends pets when they go on vacation I am currently in school looking for a part time job I have 3 dogs of my own but would love to meet and play with other pups I have a small fenced yard where my pups go potty but I like to take them to the park to run and take my puppy on walks to keep up his training
About: Growing up with two other siblings and multiple pets, I was the one who was always caring for our animals. Whether it was walking our family dog Pepper, changing our rabbit Max's litterbox, or even giving our cat Tiki her insulin shots. Honestly, fast forward 20 years and not much has changed as I watch and care for my brother and sister's dogs, Smalls and Birdy, respectively, often. Oh, I also have my own 100% purebred good boy Yuki. Hes a 5 year old black field lab I've raised and trained since he was a puppy. Currently working part time and studying for IT certifications so I will have ample opportunities to walk, play, and care for your animals. Having a dog of my own I am very congniscient of feeding and walking times, willingly or not. Yuki and I go for walks twice daily around our neighborhood and even stop off at the park to throw the ball (finally, a dog that retrieves xD).

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 6,526 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Edwardsville. 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 Edwardsville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Edwardsville after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Edwardsville. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
