“Sophie has been walking our dog twice a week for the last few weeks and it’s been awesome! Sophie is always on time, is a strong communicator about what happened on the walks, and most importantly takes really good care of our dog. Our dog loves her and that makes me so happy. Thank you Sophie!”
“Laura has been excellent - you can tell she loves animals! She is great with the dog that she walks for us. She is dependable, great with communicating and responses!”
“Molly did a wonderful job walking our pups while we were out of town! We appreciated how punctual and communicative she was, sending us lots of pictures each time she visited. We could tell she gave the dogs lots of TLC and was very attentive to each of their different needs (one dog is a young energetic pup and the other is much older and low key). We’d absolutely work with her again!”
“Shayla has been an amazing dog walker for our little Mabel! She’s very attentive, fast at communicating, always takes lots of pictures and always fills out the Rover card! If I could give her ten stars, I would! 😊”
“Tyler will continue to be my go to dog walker when I need help getting my 2 dogs their daily exercise. My pups are spoiled with daily outings , and dog park trips - we usually average 6-8 miles per day but often hit 10-12 miles once or twice every week…. with Tyler, I have peace of mind and confidence that my dogs will get a walk and the type of exercise they are accustomed to. They always return content , satisfied and most importantly exhausted! Thanks again Tyler!”
About: My name is Serenity, and I guarantee peace of mind when you leave your animals with me. I grew up on a farm and with a mother who adores animals. I've cared for all kinds of animals and have extensive experience with looking after their well-being and health. I love any animal from big dogs to baby kittens. I know that your pet is like family to you. If you choose me as a sitter, I can promise that they will be treated as family. I can work with rescues and special diets. I can bottle feed and help with disabled animals as well. Not only am I able to look after your animals with the care that is necessary, I can also ensure the loving environment any animal deserves :) I am a college student who has lots of extra time this summer. I recently moved states and I deeply miss my own pet family; for that reason I plan on working with animals as much as possible. Tell me what you need, I'll work with you! I don't plan on hosting because I live in an apartment, however I am very respectful of spaces that aren't mine. If you need me to watch your babies over night, I promise I'll treat your space with as much respect as my own- even if your pet makes a mess, you wouldn't be able to tell because I'd clean it asap!
About: As a college student working from home, I offer a flexible and caring pet care service tailored to your furry friend's needs. With a lifetime of experience owning dogs and cats of all breeds and temperaments, including seniors, I'm comfortable with any number of animals. I'm particularly familiar with breeds like Boxers, German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and Beagles. Having cared for dogs with allergies, I'm very sensitive to dietary needs and restrictions. Plus, my flexible work-from-home schedule means I can accommodate almost any request. I have a history of leaving furry friends sad to see me go, and I promise to give your pet the same love and attention! I work from home and it is a very flexible job so I can provide service services at pretty much anytime any day of the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's routine, medical needs, and dietary instructions to ensure a stress-free environment. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and communicate exclusively through the Rover app to keep all details secure.
“Gretchen is the best! She accommodates our last minute requests, is flexible with our schedule and takes such good care of our dog, Ruby. Ruby is very high energy and she always comes back tired and happy from her walks with Gretchen. She loves loves loves her time with Gretchen and our lives have become simpler knowing we have a great option to come be with Ruby.”
About: I've cared for a variety of pet animals over the years, and currently own two cats of my own who I raised from kittenhood, one who was even prematurely removed from his mother. I'm currently doing mostly online schooling so with proper notice I can work with any type of sitting needs, no matter how odd the job. I'm able to board pets of any type, as I have more than enough space to seperate or integrate as your individual pet requires for a comfortable stay! I also have the flexibility to be within your home for any amount of time your pet needs.
“Cindy took my dog on some walks while I had an injured ankle. She was very kind and punctual with awesome communication and nice updates on how the walks went. I definitely recommend her to others and will look her up again when we need it in the future!”
“Robert is awesome and came over to walk my Winston on very short notice. My dog loves him and came back very happy! I highly recommend Robert for his animal expertise and professionalism!”
About: I’m an Animal Science graduate and I train service dogs with Can Do Canines, so I have a lot of experience working with dogs in different environments and understanding their behavior and needs. I’ve worked with puppies, high-energy dogs, and older pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m very attentive to body language and routines, and I always try to make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I also grew up with dogs and have hands-on experience raising and training my own family pets—including a feisty dachshund puppy who I helped train into a gentle, well-behaved dog, along with two other dogs with strong obedience and great temperaments. My background means I naturally reinforce good habits, use positive reinforcement, and keep things consistent with what your pet already knows. I truly love spending time with animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them some extra attention and cuddles. After graduating from UMN, I’ll be working part-time at the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in Roseville (around 20 hours per week). My schedule varies slightly week to week, but this also gives me a lot of flexibility for pet care. Outside of my shifts, I have a wide availability and love filling my time caring for pets. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can often accommodate mornings, evenings, weekends, and extended stays. I currently provide care in clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable in their own environment and routine. I always take the time to learn your pet’s schedule, preferences, and any specific instructions so I can keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. Safety is my top priority. I’m very attentive to surroundings on walks and in the home, and always monitor pets closely. With my background training service dogs, I’m confident handling a variety of behaviors and situations calmly and responsibly. I also have experience administering medications, including oral, topical, and injectable medications, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions when needed. I respect your home as if it were my own, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. I’m happy to send regular updates, photos, and communicate as much as you’d like so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Phoebe has a 6th sense about what dogs need I think. She was terrific with our bashful Abby, being able to adapt to Abby only wanting to take a short walk and instead spending the rest of the walk time giving Abby extra love and belly rubs. We will definitely will call on Phoebe again!”
About: I've lived with and taken care of animals of all types both in my home and as a house sitter off and on for friends and family for most of my life including all sizes and types of dogs and many different feline friends. I've cared for multiple temperaments including shy, protective, adventurous, friendly, etc. as well as done medication application, bandaging, scheduled feedings, mobility issues, and end of life needs. I've had many pets myself and love to bond with even the shyest of critters. I work as an EA in a charter school in St. Paul, so my schedule is completely open and free during the summer, weekend availabily during the school year (Mid August-First Week of June.) I personally have a cat at home that I care for and I grew up with both indoor and outdoor dogs, as well as house-sitting for friends and family so pet care has always been part of my daily life. At home, I measure food and free feed my cat and she has an automatic water fountain that's maintained regularly and her litter box is spot cleaned twice a week and fully scrubbed twice a month. She has many toys that are always available and I always spend some time playing with her every day. She loves cuddles and has them on demand because as soon as she sits on you kitty law is invoked and you can't move till she does. When I have cared for dogs I have done everything from walks in parks, neighborhoods, and dog parks as well as just playing in the house or yard as well as taking take of outdoor dogs, like working dogs. I have done scheduled feeding, free feeding, medications, etc. If I am staying in your home I will do my best to keep life as close to normal for your pet, apart from there being a different human in the house. I would also prefer to meet your pets and see your home before any official start date of a booking for us both to get a feel for each other.
About: Worked for four years at a dog boarding and daycare facility over summer and winter breaks from college as a dog handler and eventually as a supervisor. Per employment requirements, I am now certified in dog body language and dog group management! I also have a high-energy breed of my own at home who is still in her puppy phase. At school I am a double major in environmental science and human-animal studies and have a strong passion for working with animals. I currently have open availability for this summer and fall and would love to take care of your pet(s)! I may be starting a part-time position in the future but for now I’m available most days! I am happy to accommodate and follow whatever routine your dog/cat is used to! I have worked with all different kinds of dog breeds to the working breed, high-energy dogs to sleepy couch potatoes. Whatever your pet needs I will make do!
About: I've dedicated most of my life to the care of animals in my life as well as others! I currently take care of my at home pets that includes fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds, a cat and many pet bug friends. Nothing has ever fazed me when it comes to behavior or health, I've worked at PetSmart, Petco, vet clinics, with lab animals, as well as most recently I worked at SeaQuest taking care of the various animals there (including otters, wallabies, and sloths!). I know how to administer any meds/supplements and can help train and bathe pets as well. I dedicate all of my time to pet care, whether it's my own pets or others. I have no other obligations or distractions from pet care and look forward to enriching more pets' lives! I do daily checks on each of my own pets in my home as well as client pets to ensure nothing has changed and there aren't any concerns that may pop up, as well as monitor any outdoor time in clients home, with or without a fence. I ensure no foreign/dangerous objects are within reach to be eaten and when not in a fenced in yard, ALWAYS have the pet leashed unless owners have trained and informed me their pet is capable of off leash. I am also aware of all local vets, both emergency and regular.

We hired Eleni to walk our dog, Bowser, while we were out of town and the friend watching him at night worked all day. When we discovered an 8 week old puppy under a car days before our trip, we scrambled on what to do. Eleni was more than happy to add her to the booking and spend extra time with her after the daily walks. The photos and updates were great, and we will definitely hire Eleni again in the future!
I maybe have left a review before but what's the harm in another! My pup is a little bit of a nervous girl and Haley has been very patient with her. Haley takes great care of my pup during, before and after their walks! And the updates I get from Haley about my dog are great!
Claudia did a great job walking my lab, Cleo, while I was out of town! She is very prompt with any communication. She always sent photos from the walks, and the map of the walks; and let me know how Cleo was doing. I felt very assured that Cleo was in excellent hands. Claudia is experienced and was sensitive to Cleo’s needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Falcon Heights on Rover is $22.2 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 5,669 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Falcon Heights. 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 Falcon Heights. 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 Falcon Heights.
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 Falcon Heights. On Rover:
- 92% 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.
