About: I’ve worked in animal care full-time for the last 4 years. I left the kennels/daycare world 7months ago to take care of them in a more comfortable, personalized, & loving way I think they deserve. I’ve worked in very large groups, administered medications, & have fallen in love a million times. Animal care is my full-time 24/7 job. I like trying different enrichment games & activities. I also additionally offer field trips or trail hikes that can be discussed at meet & greet. I have a large, fully fenced yard. We play, walk, or snuggle as they prefer. Pets are allowed on furniture & in my bed unless owner prefers otherwise. If your dog is well socialized & you’d like them to play/stay with others that can be discussed after an initial stay.
About: Hi I am still available for your pet needs please feel free to call or text me. I am home full time and I honestly love animals i will work with all animal's and i can provide references upon request and I have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. As aa kid when I had a dog I fed my dog trained my dog took my dog out my mom only had to do my dogs potty run when I was at school and what I was not able to do she did but I spent a great deal of time with my dog and the dogs I have now are very much loved trained and well behaved and I always tried to find the best ways and different ways that work with the dog. In my opinion a dog is a dog it's not the dog to be judged it's the owners who teach them and train them that counts. I am not working the pet service is my work so schedule is flexible and I work with cats and dogs and even birds.and I am open with covid I do not have a fenced in yard I walk my dogs and occasionally do dog parks. I will gladly work with the owners on what they wish done. I am home 24/7 I do not work.The only time I am not home is if I have drs appointments or another client pet to attend to. I am very flexible in schedule. Please feel free to call me or text me. I care for my clients pets the way my clients ask of me in terms of feeding potty breaks walks etc. I care for the pets as I would want my pets treated with love kindness and respect. My clients I treat with the upmost respect and gratitude.
About: I’ve experienced helping with pets since a young age, including my own childhood pup, and worked 2 years at a boarding and grooming facility playing with, caring for, and interacting with all kinds and sizes of pets and pups!! Balancing pet care services with my full-time cosmetology studies, Tuesday through Friday, requires careful time management, but it’s become a rewarding part of my routine. After my morning classes, or before my night classes, I typically set aside a few hours in day—whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing basic grooming services. This flexibility allows me to earn extra income and unwind from the intensity of my studies while giving me the chance to practice patience and attention to detail, skills that are also vital in cosmetology. It’s a great way to stay grounded and connect with animals while continuing to work towards my professional goals. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I make sure to follow their specific instructions to ensure the pets feel comfortable and safe. I take the time to get to know each pet's routine—whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime preferences, or medication needs—and stick to it as closely as possible. I also make sure their living spaces are clean and organized, providing a calm and familiar environment for the animals. Whether it’s taking them for walks, giving them attention, or just keeping them company, my goal is to make sure they feel loved and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: Hi! I have taken care of cats, dogs, chickens & lizards. I feed them, enjoy walking them & spending time with all of them. Thanks. I currently work full time and this is something I do part time, on the side. My full time job is flexible but I would need notice to adjust my work schedule.I can’t promise I can do this all the time… I like to do a meet n greet first so I can meet the family, let the pets sniff me & have some interaction. I follow the regular routine when I am in the clients home. If they are crated, I crate them. If they need to be let out in the middle of night & that is what the owner does, I let pet out…I make sure they are well taken care of. I treat them as they are my own.

“My dog, who can be nervous, loved Brynna right away! She was a lifesaver, giving our Siberian Husky a potty break and walk on a day we had to be away. This is my first experience with Rover, and Brynna made it a great one! Thank you so much.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, especially larger breeds, and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve personally owned two Pit Bulls, one weighing 70 pounds and the other 132 pounds, along with a Pomeranian, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels! My family has always had larger dogs and has trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away. I’ve also helped friends with cat sitting, so my love and experience extend beyond just dogs! For the past year and a half, I’ve been a stay-at-home mom, which has taught me even more about patience, responsibility, and maintaining a loving, attentive environment. I understand that pets are family, and I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I’d give my own pets! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week, including weekdays and could be flexible depending on weekends. I’m happy to provide dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship while you’re away. My 1½-year-old would accompany me during visits, so I ask that pets be comfortable and safe around young children. I understand how important it is to find someone dependable to care for your furry family members, and I’m committed to providing reliable, loving, and attentive care while working around your pet’s individual routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! While I do not offer pet care in my own home, I’m more than happy to provide care in the comfort of yours, where your pets can remain in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, as well as smaller dogs and cats. I understand that every animal has its own personality, needs, and boundaries, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Since my young child accompanies me, I only accept pets that are comfortable around toddlers. I prioritize safe interactions, close supervision, and respecting each animal’s personal space. I’m also happy to follow any specific feeding schedules, walking routines, household rules, or special instructions you provide. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are receiving dependable, compassionate care while you’re away!
About: My unconditional love for all animals. Every cat or dog that I meet I treat and cherish as if they were my own fur baby. I do work a full time job, 8-4 Mon-Fri. However, I am looking to use some of my free time taking care of your fur baby! I do my best to maintain whatever routine you have with your fur baby. I am willing to go the extra mile to make your pup feel safe and comfortable while you are away.
About: My husband and I are workampers! That means we move every season to a new campground and work there. This time, we are at Jellystone Caledonia!! We love to have the presence of animals, since it gets boring living in a campground without an animal to walk. There is a great dog park here with great socialization opportunities (for us and the dogs 😆😆)!! I would love an opportunity to pet sit any type of fur babies, I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life!!! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!! Pet care fits seamlessly into our routine. My husband and I travel full time, which gives us a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability. We both enjoy meeting new people and animals along the way, and our lifestyle allows us to be present, attentive, and adaptable. Caring for pets fits easily into our daily life and is something we LOVE. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I make sure feeding schedules, walks, litter care, playtime, and medications (if needed) are handled consistently and with attention to detail. I respect the home and keep everything clean and orderly while you’re away.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Elkhorn is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per walk.

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 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 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 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 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 Elkhorn. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
