About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I offer drop-in visits, overnight stays, and dog walking, and I always adjust my care to fit each dog’s routine and needs. Whether it’s a walk to burn energy, a check-in for feeding and playtime, or staying overnight to keep your pet comfortable, I make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m reliable, patient, and provide updates so you have peace of mind while you’re away. I also have references available upon request. I’m currently working full-time. My schedule is 6am-2:30pm Monday-Friday. I can walk your dog after 2:30pm. I can also do drop in visits if you’re out of town. I can come before I go to work to play-feed-let them out. Let me know what you need from me as I’m very flexible! I will care for your dogs in your home. I love walks playing fetch with your dogs and I love doggy cuddles. I will send you pictures of your dogs!

“We highly recommend Liz! She has been walking our dog, Sailor, several times a week over the past couple of months and has been absolutely wonderful. Liz is incredibly kind, caring, dependable, and responsible. Sailor always enjoyed her time with Liz, and we had complete peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We are so grateful for the care and attention Liz has given Sailor and would recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic dog walker!”

About: I've had and cared for pets my entire life. I've cared for dogs, cats, chickens, fish, ducks, snakes, a crab, hamsters, and rabbits, no partridge in a pear tree yet! I’m a graphic designer so I work from home. This mean I have very flexible availability to work from my clients home and give their pets a lot of extra love and care throughout the day. I also occasionally work on a farm but wouldn’t be away from my client’s pets for more than 4 hours. I am very thorough with my assessment and questions I ask when house/pet sitting at houses to make sure anything needed is available, or that I may be ready for any issue that may come up. I also LOVE to leave the house I'm sitting at better than I found it. My mother taught me at a young age how incredibly nice it is to return to a very clean house after a trip. It's a lovely gift I truly enjoy to give when I'm finished housesitting.

About: I have been a dog own for almost 30 years. From puppies to seniors, small to large, I love them all! While you are away, I want to give your best friend the same love and attention that you would give them. I work full-time during the week, but have plenty of time on the weekends. My daughter is off at college so I have all the time in the world on the weekend to hang out with your pup. I am happy to spend the night if that is what works for you. I can stop in multiple times per day and I am willing to stay the night with your pup if that something that you would like

About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter/house sitter (3+ yrs) who is passionate about making pets feel safe and comfortable when I’m watching them! 🤗🐶 I am also an active person, so long walks (5+ miles), farm animal needs, or pet medical needs are totally okay with me. I take pride in being able to make my furry friends feel special and enriched during my time with them, so I frequently have clients tell me that their fur babies miss me when I leave! I am also a neat person who is up for completing any household tasks/chores while I’m watching your space. Outside of pet sitting, I have am a masters student (MPP) and researcher, which means I am in the office only occasionally: Mon-Thur, 10am-4pm (~6hrs) Federal Holidays I am off of work. I have a flexible schedule which allows me to come home for a quick potty break in the middle of the day! I am a very responsible, clean, and honest person who prioritizes communication and safety when I am watching your fur babies or your home. I understand the trust that my clients give me to watch over their homes and pets is very very sacred, and I am honored to give my clients the best possible experience. I frequently send updates (i.e. pictures/videos of my activities with the pets, weather reports if there are storms, etc.). I am also available by phone 24/7 for clients to reach out. I am flexible and open to completing household tasks (i.e. watering plants, cleaning, etc.) if need be.

“Patrick was always on time, and walked each of my dogs for the amount of time agreed upon. I truly believe he loves my dogs as much as I do! I would 110% recommend Patrick and Jillian! I’m home with a broken foot, and Patrick went above and beyond by helping get my trash out and brining up my packages. This is my first time using any app to help with my dogs, and I was a little apprehensive to let a stranger be with my pets, but I’m beyond thankful, grateful, and pleased by my experience with Patrick. He’d take the dogs for their walks while I wasn’t home, and have complete and utter trust in him. Thank you Patrick for your help during my difficult time.”

About: My focus is on providing a stress free and activity filled adventure for your dog! I have a securely fenced acre of land (six foot high fence with jump guards) with plenty of room for safe free running. My personal dogs are all dog friendly and we enjoy frisbee and long walks daily and have previously competed in various dog sports. I have senior dogs and understand the extra care that seniors can require including medication administration and providing rugs for footing. Puppies who have been appropriately vaccinated are welcome as well. I work from home and my life revolves around the dogs and the schedule that includes feeding 2-3x per day, medications for my senior dogs and exercise as both individuals and in groups. My motto is happy dogs = happy clients. As mentioned above, I believe strongly in routine and schedule. My property has a secure fenced back yard and the yard is divided as well. Some of my clients love to sun themselves all day, some prefer to go sprint the back acre. I’ve had both positive and negative experiences with pet sitters myself and never want it to be a stressful experience for the owner or the pet. Updates are given daily with photo and/or video.

About: I have always been passionate about animals and other’s well being! That passion embodied itself in my 8 years working with an animal rescue agency and the many hours I put into caring for the animals. I have experience in walking energetic pups, feeding, light grooming (bathing and skin/fur treatments), administering medications, and enrichment. I also have three cats myself. In addition to the basics, I am an avid animal lover and I can guarantee that your pets would be in the best of hands. Communication is very important to me, and I understand the little “anxieties“ so while you’re away I am more than willing to provide updates and pictures to keep your mind at ease. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends!

About: My husband and I are the go-to pet sitters for all of our friends. They always say they come home to pets that seems so well loved and happy! We have watched all kinds of pets including disabled, health-needs, aggressive, anxious- we can handle it all! Emily is a grad student and has a lot of availability to check in during the day and night, or stay over. I work a full day on Mondays, so that’s the only day I would not be able to be home a majority of the time. We employ a force free method and want all creatures to feel loved and cared for when they are away from loved ones. As for going to your house for sitting or visits, you will come home to a house unchanged except for some super well loved pets :) We can also water plants and do trash recycling etc, no cost.

About: I am a pet sitter for St Bernard’s and Yorkers, and I do have experience with giving meds, reactive dogs, and cleaning up around the house. I am not working during the day at the moment, so I am more than able to accommodate overnight stays, and have a flexible schedule during the day I have a large open yard in the mountains so we have lots of long walks by the beach and play time. We do have a long lead line in our yard for our excited pups that like to run

About: Hello my name is Talia! The job experience I have with animals was attending Omaha Henry Doorly zoo academy working in Madagascar caring for lemurs and bats. I also currently work at a dog daycare (7 years) Caring for those animals made me realize this is the life I want to have helping any animal in need. Thank you for reading my little speal and I hope you consider me when finding you next pet sitter or walker. In conclusion if you have any questions or concerns please message me I’d happy to answer them all. I work weekends in the morning until early afternoon. During the week I usually do a couple drop in’s for other dogs. With that in mind I am not home 24/7. I have watched numerous dogs and have been recommended to their friends and family. I take numerous pictures of your dog throughout the day and send updates regularly.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of attention, patience, and adaptability I bring to every pet I care for. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—each animal has its own personality, needs, and routines, and I make it a priority to learn and follow those closely so they feel safe and comfortable. I have experience working with both young and senior pets, which means I’m comfortable handling very different energy levels and care requirements. For puppies and kittens, I focus on reinforcing positive habits like basic training, crate routines, and socialization, all while keeping things fun and consistent. I’m patient with accidents and understand that early stages require structure and encouragement. For senior pets, I provide a calmer, more attentive style of care. I’m mindful of mobility issues, medication schedules, and any special dietary or health needs. I also make sure they get gentle exercise and plenty of companionship without overexertion. Beyond that, I’m very detail-oriented and communicative. I keep owners updated with messages and photos, and I’m quick to notice any changes in behavior that might need attention. Whether it’s an energetic puppy or a slower-moving senior companion, my goal is always the same: to provide reliable, thoughtful care that makes both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I build my schedule around consistency and reliability. I structure my days to make sure I have dedicated time blocks for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, so pets are never rushed or treated as an afterthought. On a daily basis, I plan my mornings and evenings to align with typical feeding and exercise schedules, and I leave flexibility in the middle of the day for walks, drop-in visits, or extra attention if a pet needs it. I’m very mindful of maintaining the routines pets are already used to, since that helps them feel secure and comfortable. Throughout the week, I manage my availability ისე I don’t overbook, which allows me to give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s regular visits or longer stays, I make sure I can be fully present and responsive to their needs. Overall, pet care isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I intentionally plan my routine around so I can provide consistent, dependable care. I tailor my care depending on whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home, but in both cases my focus is on keeping their routine consistent, reducing stress, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where animals have space to relax as well as opportunities for play and exercise. I stick closely to their usual feeding schedule, potty breaks, and any training routines they’re used to. I supervise interactions carefully and make sure each pet gets individual attention, affection, and downtime. Cleanliness and safety are a priority, so I keep the space secure and free of hazards. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and preferred activities, and I respect the home environment by keeping things tidy and organized. Staying in their familiar space helps pets feel more at ease, especially those who are anxious or older. For both settings, I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and energy levels so I can quickly notice if something seems off. I also provide regular updates with messages and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away. No matter the service, my goal is to provide dependable, attentive care that keeps pets happy, healthy, and comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Elkhorn is $26 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 981 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Elkhorn. 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 Elkhorn. 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 , 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 Elkhorn 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elkhorn. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
