About: I have always had animals in my home growing up. Currently I own 4 cats but have had small rodents such as hamsters and guinea pigs as well. I worked in pet care for Petsmart and worked there for 2 and a half years before beginning my teaching career. As someone who has had rodents and taken care of reptiles at Petsmart, don’t hesitate to contact me if you have exotics! I have taken care of and watched my parents animals which consisted of 6 cats, one had to have insulin twice a day. I’ve given different animals medications and am confident I can watch your fur babies! I look forward to hearing from you! I am a full time teacher and am currently only available on weekends or holidays as of right now. I’ll have more free time over spring and summer break! I prefer to not board animals in my home as I do not have room for them. However, I would very much enjoy coming over and taking care of them for drop in visits!

About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for all animals. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level—whether they’re energetic, shy, senior, or still learning. I’m attentive on walks, gentle during sitting, and always focused on safety, consistency, and positive interactions. I’m especially mindful with senior pets who may need slower walks, extra comfort, or medication reminders, and I’m patient with puppies who are still learning routines and leash manners. I communicate clearly with owners, follow care instructions closely, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is simple: happy, relaxed pets and complete peace of mind for you. My open availability allows me to be hands-on and fully present, giving your pet(s) lots of attention and personalized care with patience love and consistency. I make sure your pet(s) feel safe, happy, and loved in their own home. I stick to their routine, give plenty of cuddles, play, and gentle attention, and make sure they’re comfortable every step of the way. You’ll get updates, photos, and lots of peace of mind while I care for your furry (or feathery!) family members.

About: Welcome to your pet’s home away from home 💛 Hi there! We’re a fun-loving, animal-obsessed couple who believe life is simply better with paws, tails, and a little bit of fur on everything. We moved from Colorado a few years ago, where we had the joy of hosting all kinds of animals—big, small, shy, energetic—you name it, we’ve loved it! Both of us grew up on farms in the Midwest, so caring for animals has always been second nature and one of our favorite things to do. These days, we both work from home during the week, which means your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and snuggles all day long. Our home is very much a pet-first household—around here, animals run the show! Whether your pet loves curling up on the couch, stretching out in bed, or following us around all day, they’re welcome to make themselves completely at home. No strict rules here—just lots of love, comfort, and flexibility. We also have a super friendly pup who absolutely loves making new friends and gets along great with other animals. Daily life includes walks around the neighborhood, and the occasional trip to the dog park for extra zoomies. We’re very laid-back and flexible with schedules—whatever works best for you and your pet, works for us! Our goal is to make sure you feel completely at ease while your furry family member is safe, happy, and spoiled. We can’t wait to meet you and your pet—and give them all the love they deserve! 🐾 I currently am working remote so 3 - 4 long walks is my current routine. I live close to numerous trails so you can count on your pup always getting the best outdoor experience while he/ she is with me. I have one very friendly dog who loves to play, I am always home to keep an eye on him and any other friends we have at the time. I am very diligent in my care because I know I would expect the same of someone watching my guy, you can always be sure that in my care your fur baby will get lots of love and attention… and treats of course.

About: Hi! I’m Jordyn, and I’m someone who truly loves dogs—not just watching them, but caring for them like they’re my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your pup behind, so my goal is to make sure both you and your dog feel comfortable, relaxed, and happy while you’re away. Every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to get to know each one. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just curling up for a cozy nap, I’m happy to match their energy and routine. I’m very attentive, patient, and gentle, and I always make sure your dog feels safe and loved. I also work as a veterinary assistant so I have lots of Experience with pets of all kinds! I currently work as a vet assistant 4 days out of the week. I have three days off which includes every Saturday and Sunday and mostly Tuesdays. Some times they change the schedule up and I can have off either Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. It just depends. Other than that I have every Saturday and Sunday off and I am always available on the weekend as I stay close by the house. I like to dog sit at my clients home because I feel the animal is most comfortable in their own home and I have one dog of my Own and two cats that live at my house and I wouldn’t want that to interfere with your animal. I like to dog walk, dog sit all weekend or as needed, and anything else you would like me to do. I can give Baths, cut nails and etc.

About: I have had and worked with dogs my entire life, from puppy to elder dogs. I have had big dogs my entire life, such as German Shepherds and Labs. I mostly work afternoons twice a week, as well as doing some occasional other jobs, so I will most likely be able to spend a lot of time in your home and do drop off visits in the morning and evening. I am an online student, so I will not also be going to class on top of my job. I am able to work with young puppies to elder dogs with the ability to give pills. I can work with dogs of all sizes, from big dogs to small dogs. I am available to sit for your dogs in your home, as well as exercise with them through walking, running, or playing with them. I do not have dogs come into my home. I am also available for last minute dog sitting or drop-ins. I have open availability, so I can spend plenty of time with your pets! I have great time management skills which allows me to attend to all your pets needs as well as give them the attention and exercise they need to be happy, especially when you are away! I offer in your home house sitting, drop-in, and dog walks. I feel that it keeping pets feeling the most comfortable is when they stay in their home, and I feel that they includes keeping them on the same routine!

About: My expertise spans across all age groups, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. I understand the specific needs of each age group, whether it's providing gentle care and attention to senior dogs or engaging in lively play and training with puppies. I have a genuine love for dogs. I hope your dog can sense my kindness and affection, that will create a nurturing and comforting environment for them! Although I love playing and making sure dogs under my care are energetic and happy, I also love to relax at the end of the day with treats and cuddles! I do currently work at a Massage Envy, full time, as an assistant manager and esthetician. I know my schedule for 3 weeks out but rarely past that. As I transition into full time esthetician, I will have a more set schedule! I follow the pet's regular feeding, walking, and play schedules as instructed by the owner to maintain familiarity and comfort. I engage in interactive play sessions and provide companionship to alleviate any separation anxiety and keep the pet mentally stimulated. I respect the owner's guidelines regarding furniture use, sleeping arrangements, and any specific rules they have set for their pet.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Emit

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Emit on Rover is $18.19 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 3,595 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Emit. 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 Emit. 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 Emit.

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 Emit. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
