“Robert was great to work with. He and Waffle got along really well. Robert took the time to do a meet and greet and visit before the first walk, even on a short notice. Robert has been flexible and accommodating with his schedule to meet our needs. After the walk, he sent us detailed comments and photos of their walk. I plan on continuing to work with him on an ongoing basis. I feel like Waffle is in good hands!”
“Tony takes such good care of my girl when I’m working long days. It’s such a comfort knowing she’s getting loved on and lots of playtime, and she recognizes Tony’s name with a pitty smile and thumping tail.”
About: Hi there! I’m Macy, a veterinary student at the University of Minnesota with over 8 years of hands-on experience working with animals. I’m passionate about what I do and truly love spending time with pets of all shapes and sizes! As a future vet, I bring a deeper understanding of animal behavior, health, and safety to every walk or visit. Whether your dog is young and full of energy or older and needs a little extra care, I’ve got the knowledge and experience to keep them happy and comfortable. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes—including strong pups over 70 pounds—and I’m happy to walk multiple dogs or visit as often as needed for walks, feeding, or check-ins. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priorities, and I’ll always treat them like one of my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! As a veterinary student, my schedule can vary throughout the school year—some weeks are busier, while others are more open. That said, I’m often able to work pet care into my routine between classes and clinicals. During the summer, my schedule is much more open, and I have lots of availability for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. I’m happy to be flexible and do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs! As a veterinary student with years of experience working in veterinary clinics, I have the knowledge and training to care for pets in a variety of situations and ensure their safety and well-being during drop-in visits and walks. Whether I’m stopping by your home to feed, check in, or take your dog for a walk, I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, health, and happiness. I’m confident handling pets of all sizes and temperaments and can provide extra attention or care as needed—especially for pets with medical needs or special routines. I aim to make each visit a positive experience, offering reliable, loving care while you’re away.
“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: I've owned a dog and/or a cat since I left college and once had 3 dogs, 3 cats and 2 children under age 6 in the same house! I worked for a pet sitting business in Virginia for two years and love to observe animals and get to know to know them on their terms. Experience matters with pets and I have that, combined with great communication and common sense. I'm the person you want watching your furry friends when you can't be there. I'm also a photography lover and I'm happy to work to get some good shots of your animals while taking care of them. I'm a semi-retired journalist who often works remotely, so I have plenty of time to pet sit. With my kids in college, my nest is empty except for my Pueto Rican chihuahua mix, Nina. We walk two or three times a day when the weather and my schedule permits. I'll care for your pets as if they were mine. I've owned multiple cats and dogs, from 8 pounds up to 90. If you have the patience and experience, almost every animal will give you clues on how they want to be treated.
“Sharron does a great job and communicates well with us on schedule adjustments. Fiona my Goodendoodle waits at the door for her to pull up to the house and is excited to see her every walk.”
“Emily took great care of our dogs! She was on time for our meet and greet and made sure she got to know both Pete and Rosie. When she came to walk the dogs, she was able to get Rosie outside and down the road (which is a big accomplishment with a timid, blind dog)! We definitely would recommend Emily.”
“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 treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love. Whether it’s administering medications, deep-cleaning litter boxes, or taking them on long walks I am currently working mornings and evenings so I have plenty of time in the afternoon to play with your pet and taking long walks. I’ve done house sitting at others home and have respected all of their wishes with their pet and their home. It is better for pets to stay in their home so they are comfortable.
“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!”
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.
“Nice to meet Cooper. Dogs liked him right away. He took them on a power walk and they were happy resting back at home for more than a few hours afterwards. Grateful he was available last minute.”
“Michelle did an amazing job with Daisy. Very timely with communication in the booking process. Very impressed and will be the first place we look when we have walking needs!”
About: I’m a college student who had the pleasure to work with the PAWS program at the University Of Minnesota which helps people meet animals safely. It helped me educate more people about how pets support mental health and wellbeing. My favorite thing in the world is hosting those angels in my residence. I’m currently taking classes mostly Monday and Wednesday morning but when i’m not in school i’m usually at home with the pups. I take a long walk every morning so i usually like to have a buddy to accompany me! I prefer to adjust to the owner’s style rather than doing my own way. I’ve learned that some pups can get overwhelmed with sudden changes to their environment and routine.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Falcon Heights is $20

Tyler is an absolute dog lover, and it truly shows in the way he cares for Maple. He is extremely responsive, responsible, flexible, and always willing to go above and beyond to accommodate a request or help in any way he can. I can genuinely tell that Tyler thoroughly enjoys the time he spends with Maple, and knowing she is with him gives me complete peace of mind. I never have to worry when she’s in his care. I especially appreciate how thoughtful he is about making the right decisions and how he consistently keeps Maple’s safety and well-being at the top of his mind. I would give Tyler 5 stars without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, kind, compassionate, attentive, reliable, and supportive dog walker or pet sitter. Thank you so much, Tyler! We greatly appreciate all of your support and, most importantly, all the love and care you give our sweet Maple.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Falcon Heights on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,688 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.
