About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages since I was a kid. Family and friends have often relied on me to feed, walk, and hang out with their pets while they are away. I prefer to have written/typed instructions to reference while I care for your fur baby. I can be available for pet sitting on weekends upon request. If that’s what you need, please ask and we can see if it works! Aside from taking care of my own fur baby, my schedule is pretty flexible due to the amount of work available this time of year, so I am available most days (and weekends upon request)! I have a senior cat named Dexter who is very particular about how he receives affection, as well as his food and toys that he likes to play with. This sweet boy has shown me just how important it is to prioritize a pet’s boundaries so that they can be healthy and happy. I always follow exactly what a pet parent has asked me to do regarding the care of their pets.
“My older dog is SO skiddish and reactive and really takes a confident walker to get him warmed up! Melissa did amazing at engaging with him and giving him his space for him to warm up to her on the first 30 minute walk. Highly recommended”

About: I have loved animals my entire life! I'm the go-to petsitter for my family and friends, including cats and dogs, and I have been for years. I've been dog walking, petsitting, and catsitting for more than 7 years, including walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I currently don't have any pets of my own, but I love spending time with my roommate's cats and I can't wait to spend time with your pets, as well! I'm a grad student working part-time at a coffee shop, so there's a lot of flexibility in my schedule right now! I usually work 6-8 hour shifts in the northern suburbs of the city, giving me plenty of time before and after to spend with your pet and make sure their needs are met and they're having a good time while you're away! While I cannot board pets in my home now, I can offer a variety of services to ensure that I'm meeting your needs in other ways, including staying at your home for petsitting, drop-in visits, visiting for walks, or whatever combination best meets your needs. I believe in consistent, clear, and direct communication, and I want to make sure everyone is on the same page, cared for, and happy. I also love sharing photos of your pet if you're interested!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Elko on Rover is $18.87 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 17 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Elko. 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 Elko. 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 Elko.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
