About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I had a beagle and a dachshund mix growing up. Now I have a sweet cavapoo named Ivy! I am gentle with all kinds of pets and really pay attention to dogs behavior and mannerisms. Their safety and happiness are my number one concern. I will be graduating from Mizzou in May! I just finished up an internship that I had this semester, so I have all the time in the world now! Feed, take out, take for walks, play, cuddle, and any other tasks that you would like for me to do, and give them all the love they need.
About: I’ve lived with my dogs for around 10 years. I take them for walks, feed them when my family needs some help. I have a big dog and a medium sized dog! I don’t have any professional experience but I take care of my dogs often. :) I’m a student at Mizzou, so I will typically be busy until 3pm when I’m in Columbia. When I’m back home in Ballwin over breaks, I should typically be free at all times. I can’t have pets in my home, but in others home I am able to give walks, play with animals, and do anything that’s needed! I love taking care of animals and I’m super careful with them.
“Alli accepted a week before when another sitter cancelled on me …she was so professional booked a meet and greet right away. She took such good care of my babies (I have three and two are older seniors - and one active puppy!) she took amazing pics and never worried about them she is AMAZING”
“Cynthia was amazing- she went above and beyond the call of duty. It’s obvious that she loves animals. It stormed all weekend while we were gone, but she was very careful to make sure that our dog was comfortable. Thank you, Cynthia.”
About: As a performer who travels the world by sea, I know how comforting the love of an animal can be and while I’m away I miss that connection so much! I have loved, snuggled, and pet animals around the world and while I’m back on land I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same attention! I’ve had dogs my whole life and grew up in a home full of furry friends. My parents volunteer with Duo Dogs, so our house has always been a revolving door of puppies and big dogs alike. Two of our English Labs are especially sensitive to fireworks and thunderstorms, so I’m no stranger to calming anxious pups with patience, love, and a gentle hand. Whether it’s a walk around the block, a game of fetch, some cozy snuggle time, or maybe it’s your turn to get out and see the world, I’m here to keep your pets happy and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is wide open during my time home-so don’t hesitate to reach out and let’s set something up! Since I am taking a land break, my schedule is very open! I enjoy my time at the gym, but other than that I don’t have many routine commitments. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I offer care in your home where your pet feels most secure and relaxed. I always follow your instructions closely, respect your space, and treat your home with care. You can trust that your pet will be loved, safe, and well looked after while you’re away.
About: I’ve watched dogs for several of my friends and family in the past and have decided to take my care pet scratches to others in need. I’m currently a personal trainer. So I’ll have afternoons to come home and let the pups out. And I’m there for several hours at a time. I like to walk so they will get exercise in. I have a fenced in back yard. So the dogs will have plenty of space to run and play. They have a pond to drink from.
About: Just reactivated my Rover account in June, 2026. I am a dog person. I have two dogs, Clover and Nova which are 70+ pound husky/ Aussie mix dogs that will play hard and sleep harder. I will give your pup tons of attention, play time, and can work on training if needed as well. I love training my dogs as well as other dogs, so if you’re looking for a trusted dog walker with training experience I’m ready to help. Look forward to meeting you and your dogs. I work long days and most evenings and looking to walk dogs on my lunch break close to my office. I love walking as I walk my dogs multiple times a day. I will always leash your dogs on walks. I am familiar with the gentle leader leash and training no-pull harness. I can handle dogs that may be aggressive and will go to the other side of the sidewalk if your dogs aren’t friendly with other dogs.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog and cat lover with experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I currently have both dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable with multi-pet households and different temperaments. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for dependable walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m calm, attentive, and detail-oriented, and I always follow your pet’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable. You can expect consistent communication and photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family in West County! I work from home, which means I get plenty of breaks for dog walks, potty breaks, and cuddle visits throughout the day. I’m usually available mornings, midday, and early evenings on weekdays, plus weekends with a little notice. I love building routines with pets (and becoming part of their daily favorite-human rotation). I always follow your instructions closely so your pet can stick to their normal routine and feel comfortable. I treat your home with respect and make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. On walks, I stay aware of surroundings and keep things safe and calm. I use secure leashes/harnesses and adjust the walk based on your pet’s energy and needs—whether that’s a relaxed sniff-around or a more active walk. And of course, there’s plenty of love, attention, and reassurance built in. I’m also happy to clean up after pets as needed so everything stays tidy and stress-free. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe, cared for, and at ease while you’re away.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my love for animals and my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages. Growing up, my family had two dogs, so I have cared for pets through every stage of life, from puppies to senior dogs. After caring for both, I gained valuable experience in dog walking and watching. Overall, I am confident that I can adapt to each dog’s individual needs. I am also very reliable and great at communicating. I will make it a priority to updates the parents with messages and even photos. I am currently a college-athlete, so during the school year, I do have to dedicate time each day for class and practice. However, I want to make time for this because I really enjoy spending time with animals. Since I can not be with my own, pet walking/sitting is the perfect opportunity! When I care for a pet in a client’s home, I would follow their routine as closely as possible so that their pet feels comfortable. For dog walks, I would make sure to match the dog’s energy level and needs. As for their safety, I am always alert and off my phone so that they have my full attention.
“We have used Barbara multiple times. She always communicates well and is extremely nice to our dog. We appreciate having someone so reliable and never have any doubts about the care and attention given to our dog. Would absolutely recommend her.”
About: I’ve grown up around pets and taken care of dogs, cats, and rabbits. I’m currently in college and don’t have a part time job, so my schedule is mostly free. I am currently working part-time as a babysitter, and I go to university in the fall and spring, keeping me close to the area at all times. My schedule is very open, so I will be able to spend adequate time playing with and giving attention to your pet! I treat all animals with love and respect, just as I would treat my own. I am flexible, being able to provide care for your pet and open communication for you!
About: Through my life I have experienced taking care of family pets, from the puppy stage to crossing the rainbow bridge. I often think I love animals more than people. I am currently working from home part time with flexible hours, so I can play with and cuddle your fur babies as much as they want. I can board, pet sit or just walk your dog weekdays or weekends day or night. I have a fenced in yard with one senior dog. I can crate a dog up to 40lbs. We can go for walks if desired.
About: I have two dogs in my own and have taken care of numerous different breeds in my neighborhood, along with family and friends. I enjoy taking walks and enjoy spending time with all types of dogs I am currently unemployed for the past 20 years I’ve been raising my kids. Looking for a job! I have a very flexible schedule. I love spending my time with dogs. Make sure they are happy and loved. Feed and make sure they get enough food, water and affection. Most of all exercise love and safety
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors pets and house sat for several years. I have multiple years of pet sitting and baby sitting experience in the stl area. I’m currently home for nursing school for the summer and am looking to get a part-time gig while still having time for online classes and studying. I’ve taken care of animals that have a fence and also those who need walks. I’m a big hiker so if your dogs love a hike I’d be a great fit.
About: Over the years I have taken care of so many different kinds of animals. Personally, I’ve had three bunnies, a hamster, a fish and currently have a dog. I’ve learned that pets make life more fun and interesting! I’m currently working part time, so I am available most days. I am usually flexible and I am willing to frequently communicate with you about your pets needs. Pets often have to be at home alone, so I love getting to brighten their day! I think it’s important to give them love and attention because they deserve it and need it!
About: I have grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve dog sat for family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve helped train my family’s dogs in the past so if there are any reinforcements or cues necessary on walks I’m more than capable of helping to keep a routine! I’m currently full time graduate student, but I have some free afternoons with plenty of time to walk your pets! I am also flexible to do drop ins for potty breaks and evening feedings. I do not have any pets but I can help care for your pet with walks! If there are specific needs your dog requires such as to be crated after walks I am more than willing to follow any directions for making sure your pet is safe and comfortable!
About: I have been taking care of dogs of any kind ever since I can remember! I have been working at a local daycare and boarding facility for two years, and have been taking care of neighbor and family dogs for my whole life, I promise to give you an above and beyond experience! ❤️ I work part time at a local daycare and boarding facility, so I have plenty of time on my hands! I am home from college for the summer, so I am willing to spend as much time as possible with your pet! I have a sweet elderly dog named Olive to keep your pet company! And most importantly, I have a large yard to keep your dog active and on their feet!
“This is the second time I’ve hired Amber for dog walking and just like the previous time, she did a great job, She’s very skilled with my senior dog and her visits are usually the highlight of my dog’s day. She’s reliable and efficient, with great communication through the Rover app. I highly recommend Amber!”
About: I am an animal lover at heart. It’s been my job to care for my neighbors and clients pets well being for years now. Pets are family and I’ll treat them as my own. I work part time from home so my schedule is flexible! I am available weekends, early mornings, late at night, etc. When I’m not working, I stay at home with my 20 month year old son who I’ve also now turned into a huge animal lover. My house is small and one of my dogs is very selective so I’d prefer to keep your furbaby at their home. I can stay over or visit multiple times a day- whatever works best for you.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ellisville
I have gotten the pleasure of working with Callie several times. She is reliable, takes incredible care of my dogs, and puts thorough updates in for every visit. I have had bad experiences with other Rover sitters, but cannot say enough good things about Callie I love her and so do my dogs, thanks so much, Callie!
Caitlin is amazing, and we feel fortunate to have found her! She took time to get to know us before starting and even offered tons of great advice for raising a puppy. Her background is in veterinary sciences, making her incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. She’s kind, calm, and respectful as well. She arrives on time, goes above and beyond our expectations, and is flexible with scheduling. We would recommend Caitlin in a heartbeat!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Ellisville on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 2,492 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ellisville. 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 Ellisville. 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 Ellisville.

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 Ellisville. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
