About: I have worked with animals my whole life. I absolutely adore animals, any animals! I use to work with my aunt at the clinic she works at helping her care, feed, water, clean and play with the animals that would board there. I also help her with the animals that she fosters. I do lots of research on animals and learn how to handle them and care for them. I am pretty acknowledged with animals. I know different types of breeds and their behaviors and the care they need. I would be an awesome candidate to care for your animals because I would love and treat them as my own and put their needs above mine, it would be a dream to care for any and all of your animals! Please don't hesitate to ask me anything! I am available anytime to help you and your animals! I absolutely love caring for animals and it’s all I want to do! I have a pretty flexible schedule at the moment. I live in an apartment that is fenced in and on the bottom floor so your pet will be very safe! I do home visits as well!

When it comes to your beloved furry family members, I can guarantee open communication and reliability to keep your time away from home stress-free. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to care for your furry friends on YOUR schedule. You can count on me to dedicate my full attention to your beloved pets. My goal is to make your pets as comfortable as possible while you are away, even with their quirks. Need me to sing your dog a song to get them to eat? You got it! Your cat needs to snuggle with their favorite toy to fall asleep? Say no more!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog, a pitbull that I have raised since she was a puppy and who is now five years old. Through that experience, I have learned the importance of consistency, excercise, patience, and attentive care. As a teacher and coach, I am naturally responsible, organized, and dependable. Caring for others is a huge part of my daily life, and I bring that same level of attention and compassion to pet care. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I am committed to following your instructions to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while your away. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, feeding, or simply some extra attention and companionship, I will treat them like a member of my own family. As a teacher and coach, I have a structured and dependable schedule that allows me to provide consistent pet care. During the school year, I am available for morning, evening and weekend dog walks and drop in visits. During school breaks, holidays, and summer vacation, I have additional flexibility and availability throughout the day. I understand how important routine is for pets and I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, playtime, or a quick check in while you’re away, I will make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Your pets safety and well-being are always my top priorities. During walks and drop-in visits, I carefully follow each owners instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and any special needs their pet may have. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I am attentive, patient, and committed to providing a positive experience for both pets and their owners. I also believe communication is important, so I will provide updates and photos during visits to give you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to care for your pet as if they were my own and ensure they receive the attention, care, and love they deserve.

About: Hello! I have interacted with dogs for most of my life and currently have three pets that I consider to be my own and is spoiled as such! I am a veteran and a current full-time student and enjoy taking walks around the neighborhood and exploring new areas. I have always had a love for all animals. I take pride in everything that I do so rest assured that your pup (or kitty) will be in good hands. There are multiple trails and parks in the area that I would be happy to take your dog to. My own dog is high-energy so I take multiple walks throughout the day and have multiple toys and treats that he doesn't mind sharing :) If your dog is a couch potato, that's ok too! I am flexible to the needs of the individual. Currently working part time from Thurs-Sun in the evenings and am only gone 5 hours. Once school starts back up I will only be working part-time Friday and Saturday. I let my own dogs roam free. I do have a cat and the litter box is in my closet so if your pet likes getting into things they would only be allowed in the living room. I can take dogs that are not cat-friendly as I have family that could take the cat for those days. I take direction from clients if I am visiting their home.

About: Animals have always been a meaningful part of my life, not just a job or responsibility. What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to understand their individual needs and personalities. I take the time to build trust, especially with pets who may be shy or anxious, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. I am attentive, patient, and reliable, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My goal is to provide consistent, compassionate care that keeps pets happy and owners reassured. I am a senior in college with a lot of free time, I love to be around and care for animals so this is a good fit for me. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, receive plenty of attention and playtime, and get the rest they need. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, and I’m comfortable following specific instructions, including medication or special care needs. I also keep the home clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with owners to provide updates and peace of mind.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and treat every pet like my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I also have experience with puppy training, including reinforcing basic commands, potty training routines, and creating positive habits. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, give them plenty of attention and affection, and ensure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a full-time nursing student, so pet care is the perfect way for me to spend my free time doing something I genuinely enjoy. I’m available most weekends and select weekdays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I provide a safe and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. At my home, I have two separate fenced-in yards, which allow plenty of space for playtime, exercise, and separation if needed for different pets’ comfort and safety. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions from the doggy parents!

I’m able to swap days with 48 hour notice. I look forward to caring for your fur baby! 🐾 I am not currently a pet parent so your animal(s) will have my full and undivided attention.

About: I’ve loved and had pets my whole life! I have always had a hard time finding someone to help watch my own cats, so I figure I can help others that feel the same way! We currently have two kitties, Zoe Nugget and GirlCat (and yes, that’s her real name lol) . It’s been so fun to watch them interact with our daughter as she growsl. I swear she learned how to crawl by wanting to follow them around the house! Kitties are all so different and have special needs and personalities. Let me know how I can best help take care of your babes!! Meow! I was also foster mom for years to several dogs of all different breeds and ages! That experience made me understand why dogs are truly man's best friend and I quickly became a "foster failure" after adopting a deaf pitbull pup stole my heart forever! I even taught him sign language! Not having dogs now just gives me more time to help love on your pups! Let me know how I can provide them the best care for their specific needs! Woof woof! Update!!! Buddy, our two year old poodle, basically fell in our laps from God himself!! He was being mistreated and our friends were fostering him, but already had two large dogs and a toddler. I didn’t have any rover jobs booked at the time, so I offered to help watch him and we instantly fell in love! He’s the most gentle, sweet and calm dog I have EVER met! We just adopted him in the middle of February!! He does great with other dogs, cats, and kids! We’ve had no issues watching other rover pups and kitties since he joined the family!! I take pride in the fact that I do this job the way I would want someone to do it for me if I was going out of town or in need of a sitter! Thank you in advance for trusting me with your fur babes! I’m currently a stay at home mama, so I can be flexible to help take care of your pups and kitties whenever works best for their schedules! I can feed, give meds, brush, play and give all the pets and cuddles! I will treat them like they’re my own and follow any and all directions!

About: I’ve been a pet sitter for 10 years and a trusted member of Rover for 8. I absolutely love all dogs, cats, or any little creature. Animals are my passion and I don’t intimidate easily nor would I ever allow a pet to be mistreated! When watching each pet I take care of them like I would take care of my own family member and worry about them like they are my own child. I truly love them because they are just innocent babies. This will all be taken care of before the visit. Every pet and family are different and I’ve found that a schedule is custom to every visit. In a client's home, I strive to maintain the pet's usual routine to minimize stress. This includes following specific feeding schedules, walking routes, and any medication regimens precisely as instructed. I also make sure to keep the home tidy and secure, respecting the space while ensuring the pet's comfort and safety. I prioritize open communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos to reassure them that their beloved pet is in good hands. This customized care ensures that every pet receives the attention and love they deserve, regardless of the setting.

About: Any animal I’ve met I have loved like my own! From the time I was a child I’ve always been surrounded by animals. From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets, I’ve got experience with it all! I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes. Including puppy’s with little training, so teaching them tricks was always a fun time! I work from home so I can accommodate any schedule or special requests you may have. I am also available for pick up and drop off. I would love to hang out with your pet. I will take care of them as if they were my own child. We will play and take long walks and get plenty of belly rubs. I will try to make them feel at home with me while you are away. They will be well fed and watered. I will keep u updated while you are away if needed. I have a clean home and fenced in yard for plenty of bathroom breaks.

About: I have always been around dogs since I was little but I have officially dog sat for about 7 years. I grew up with all different types of dogs, so I am able to get along with many different breeds. I have also watched cats, horses and donkies and am willing to learn how to watch any other animal. When I would watch the dogs I would go to their house to feed, water, and let the dogs out as needed. I am willing to do anything with the dogs that is in their normal routine of their days. I am a teacher and nanny so I have different hours day to day but willing to work it out with you. And during the summers my schedule can be a lot more open.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Elmo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 1,738 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Elmo. 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 Elmo. 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 Elmo.

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 Elmo. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
