About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old. Not only have I been responsible for my own family pets, but I’ve also helped care for the pets of friends and family members over the years. These experiences have taught me the importance of being reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m committed to following your pet’s routine, providing plenty of attention and care, and maintaining a safe environment. I communicate clearly, follow instructions carefully, and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind.I will treat your pets with the same care and affection that I give my own. I’m available all day Monday through Saturday. On Sundays, I’m available after 1:00 PM. I’m flexible and happy to work around your schedule whenever possible. Safety is a nonnegotiable and I will do everything I can to keep your pet safe. When it comes to instructions for your animal, I will ask as many questions as I can do to ensure everything is planned out to your liking. When it comes to trust with animals I will give them all the space they need to get use to me.

One of our dogs is very wary of new people and takes a long time to warm up to them. Not with Kali. She met him once before we left on vacation. Her first walk it took him 2 blocks to chill out. After that he was so stoked to see her and leave the house with her. Dogs came back so happy and fully exercised. Highly recommend. Will 100% use her again.

I am so grateful to Monique, she did such a great job helping to take care of our Yoyo while we were out of town. My dog is not always easy but took right to Monique. She kept me updated and sent me photos. Especially when you are out of town it is so important to know someone is taking such good care of your pet. I will definitely be reaching out to Monique again and appreciate her so much.

Savannah was excellent! I appreciated how thorough she was and how she put so much care and intention into caring for my dog, Yuki! We scheduled a meet and greet beforehand so that we could go over some details and get acclimated with each other. On the day of the walk, she followed all of the instructions and sent some cute photos from the walk. Will definitely be working with Savannah again soon!

About: Hi, my name is Amanda, and I'm currently a stay-at-home mom. I've always been an animal lover and have had dogs for most of my life. . I had two dogs, Cal and Luna. Cal recently passed away after battling cancer, and taking care of him during that time taught me so much about the extra love, patience, and attention some dogs need. From keeping up with medications and special feeding schedules to just making sure he was comfortable, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet. . Luna is a little over 7 years old, and I've had both of my dogs since they were puppies, so I understand the different care dogs need through every stage of life. . Losing Cal has left a huge hole in our hearts, and while no dog could ever replace him, caring for other people's pets has been a really meaningful way for us to share that love again. It brings so much joy back into our home, and we'd love to make your pet feel like part of the family while you're away. . I treat every pet like they're my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, going on adventures, or just wants someone to cuddle with while you're away, I'm happy to do whatever helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Since I'm home full-time, your pet will get lots of attention and won't be left alone for long periods. . I look forward to meeting you and hanging out with your best friend!

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 10 years old when I got my first dog. I now have two dogs and have cared for mine, as well as other peoples dogs :) I have two dogs to care for: a 2 year old chihuahua terrier and a 13 year old chihuahua/dotson mix! I take them on walks, make sure they're fed, bathe them and give them all the love they need :) I make sure they're not getting into anything they're not suppose to, make sure they get outside for walks and general outside time/car rides, snacks when they're being good!

About: I have no specific pet care experience but I have had many dogs, cats, reptiles since I was young. I have an incredible love for life which extends to animals highly. I work as an independent contractor so I have a completely open schedule and love being around animals note than humans at times. I have a natural warmth that almost all animals can sense and immediately create lifelong friendships. Always positive and plan to give your pets the most exemplary sitting experience known to man. I am willing to study or brush up on specific requirements depending on the animals in my care. I am very active and love to run. So I can run with your dogs or walk them, whichever you prefer. Also have tons of energy to play and make them sleepy and relaxed. Currently I work as an independent contractor building a financial brokerage and do Lyft on the side in my free time. So my schedule is my own and would love to find regular clients who have pets that would want some love and attention when their owners have work or trips that they can’t bring them along for. My roommate has own dog personally who I always look out for and make sure he is taken care of with water and food if necessary. HI’s girlfriend who lives here with us as well has two smaller dogs and two cats as well that I make sure are all in well standard of living when I am home and notice they need something. Both of them are great pet owners but life can be busy so I’m always there making sure they get anything that might go unnoticed at times. We have a large fenced in backyard where all the dogs can play and run around as well as use the restroom at will. I also take them on walks if my roommate does not have time with his mobile mechanic business.

About: My experience includes caring for puppies, senior pets, multi-pet households, birds, rabbits, fish, reptiles, chickens, and pets with unique routines or care requirements. Having worked with many different species over the years, I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's individual needs and personality. Our daytime availability is expanding as I shift away from retail work, but we still recommend that your pet be comfortable being alone for moderate stretches of time. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely; feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions; to help them feel comfortable and secure in their own space. I treat your home with care and provide regular updates so you can relax while you're away.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about 7 and have always enjoyed every second of it. From the puppy stage with biting, to hyper teens, to senior dogs requiring extra care, I’ve done it all. As a past dog owner myself, I understand the importance of getting a trustworthy and caring sitter that is capable of providing even those small services that are unique to your pup. Do they need specific music to fall asleep? A home cooked meal for their special appetite? A weird food combination to get their medication down? I’ll do it all and with a smile! Can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently a college student home for the summer so I will have all the time needed to make sure your dog is cared for and given all the attention not only needed but also wanted! The free time allows me for great at home care but also possible trips outside enriching for both your pet and I. My home has a nice outdoor space for dogs to roam freely when they please as I like to keep the door open for easy bathroom/barking breaks. There is fencing and gates ensuring their safety if they prefer to be outside while I’m indoors. I currently have no dogs so your pet will most likely be the only one to enjoy the space.

About: I’ve had pets and taken care of them since I was a kid. Whenever I’ve had pets I always have treated them like if they were my babies and I don’t just care them as animals. I love treating them really good and making them happy. I currently working every day except Thursdays and Fridays. I always get out as 6 and I don’t have a lot of daily after work activities so I just spent a lot of time at home with my own fur baby. I have a cat of my own and he’s very playful so he would make sure your own fur baby is never feeling alone and has fun playing with him. I have various space for playtime.

He took the time to ask thoughtful questions to get to know Gucci, her personality, routines, preferences, and any special needs. It was clear that he genuinely cared about providing the best possible experience for her. His attention to detail, communication, and genuine love for pets truly set him apart.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Emerald Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Emerald Hills on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 9,324 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Emerald Hills. 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 Emerald Hills. 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 Emerald Hills.

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 Emerald Hills. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
