About: Hi there! 👋 My name is Kate. I’m a mom of 2, and I have always had a strong love for animals. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats, some of whom are rescues. Growing up, I had a medically fragile dog that I administered insulin to and because of this, animals with disabilities have a special place in my heart. I have experience caring for multiple pets — up to 10 cats at one time. I have cared for pets of all sorts of temperaments and sizes and feel confident that I can provide exceptional care for your pet. It’s extremely important to me that you feel you can not only trust me but know that I will follow your instructions/routine perfectly and treat your pet like they are my own. I am a stay-at-home mom to my 3-year-old. Our days consist of being at home and playing in our backyard when we’re not running the occasional errand. I have open availability morning, afternoon and evening Monday—Sunday. My pets are family, and they are treated just that way. They all love to play, whether it’s fetch in the backyard, puzzle boards stuffed with treats or running after toy mice. In the evenings, they love to cuddle on the couch together. Each of my pets have different needs. Once I understood their personalities and behaviors, I tailored my everyday routine.

Briaunna is great! She came out before the scheduled walk to do a meet and greet with my dog and she really cares about meeting you and your dogs needs. Briaunna updated me on when she picked my dog up and dropped off, as well as sending photos and leaving a note on Koko's behavior/walk. If you want your dog to be well taken care of, you should book Briaunna!

About: I have been around animals of all kinds my entire life, my mom was always bringing little critters home so I have gotten to experience lots of different four legged friends I have a full house. We have two dogs. A 14 year old miniature Schnauzer named Zoey. A 4 year old Yorki named S'More who thinks he is master of the universe. We also have two cats. A 12 year old ash point lynx named Viktor. And a 2 month old kitten named Roscoe. They are both strays We picked up. And four Sugar Gliders: Stitch, Ziggy, Joey, Gizmo. So to say we have wild daily pet routines would be an understament. I see meeting new pets as making new friends. Because that's what we are to them. I am more than happy to be your fur babies best pal, whether that's someone to play with, or chill with.

Even though Simone comes everyday, she always takes A LOT of photos which I greatly appreciate because I get to enjoy knowing my pup’s in good hands and he looks happy on his daily adventures. It’s so fun looking at his daily album of adventures while I’m away. I know Simone treats my pup just like her own and always shares his wins, I can’t highly recommend her enough!

About: I have worked at an animal hospital for 5 years total where I learned how to train dogs from Kathy Sadao who used to train the wales to relinquish the bombs for the Navy. I have owned large and XL breed dogs my whole life as well. I will treat your dog like a human child as they will be allowed on my furniture, my bed, and probably my kids beds as well. I have a little over 10 acres for them to play on. We are starting a small farm style residents and would love to shower your fur babies with love and attention. Since starting Rover, 90% of my clients are returning, and become part of our family as well. I have trained people’s dogs in the time I have had them along with help manage dogs anxiety’s to different things. I helped a water aggressive dog become no longer water aggressive. A dog who pulled on a leash so hard you couldn’t walk him to now, my 6 year old son walks him with no worries. As much as my family loves to play with and cuddle your 4 legged babies we also love to help you out by training them if we can. I have plenty of time for all pet care needs to be met. I am a stay at home mom, but all my kids now go to school so your fur babies will have all my attention most of the time during the week. I have a fenced yard, very safe neighborhood, loving high energetic family, big house, 10 acres, and I have worked at an animal hospital in the past I can tell if something is wrong with your dog. If you would like I love sending pictures and videos as well.

About: Available for last minute/odd schedule requests. Everything sets me apart from others because I've learned over all my yrs experience that when trust is shown trust is given. Then everything else falls into place. ***Available for last minute/odd schedule requests.*** Animals are my escape I enjoy all of them! Life would be boring without them. They bring so much happiness to me!!!l Life is just better with them in it to enjoy with us. Remember ***(Available for last minute/odd schedule requests.)*** Fur babies run the roost! I usually take them out every half hour just for exercise or fun as well as potty breaks (which is a good way to break bad marking habits for ones training). If it's a nice day usually we are outside all day playing and walking teaching the ones who are still in need of guided assistance. Which actually makes things way easier on me. Unless of course it's just to hot to be out side. Rainy days are our lazy days or indoor activity days. Lots of cuddles and loves. My personal fur babies are not kenneled but I do have kennels for ones who prefer it. It's whatever makes them happiest. Or feel the safest. I'm a pretty good judge of character when it comes to fur babies. We read one another very well. Which in turn makes us more comfy with one another. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience with one ever.i know when to back off or come in for loves. Mutal respect is the best policy I feel.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Elk Plain

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Elk Plain on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 .

As of August 2026, there are 5,925 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Elk Plain. 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 Elk Plain. 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 Elk Plain.

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 Elk Plain. On Rover:

  • 93% 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.
