“Jackson I 10/10 recommend!! I will be scheduling with him again in the future! As a new user on here I was very skeptical with all of this. I have a big pup who is very hyper-active. He was amazing and very professional with all aspects. From the communication, reassurance, and detailed plan (he will provide). I felt so much better about this process! I know my dog can be a lot for other people but he was a champ!! Thank you so much again! For taking care of my baby as your own✨✨✨✨🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼”

About: From a young age, I’ve been surrounded by furry friends and have always adored them. My four-legged companions have included a German Shepherd, a Newfoundland, a Poodle, Staffordshire Terrier and 2 rescue cats. After many moves, and in my first year living in America, we adopted a Havanese-Bichon mix, and it has been the best decision ever! To me, dogs are an endless source of joy. They are the most loyal and loving creatures on the planet! I love playing with them, teaching them new tricks, going for walks, watching them, and giving them lots of cuddles. A walk with a dog fills me with energy and positive emotions. I love them, and they feel it and love me back. When it comes to cats, I understand that cats choose you, not the other way around. I’m patient, calm, and attentive, providing respectful care that helps cats feel safe, relaxed, and at home. You can trust that your furry friends will be safe and surrounded by love when they are with me, whether it’s for a walk, feeding, or just spending time together. I work from home and have a flexible schedule that I set myself. I’m generally available to come feed and walk the fluffies from early morning until late evening. I offer in-home pet care services. I can come to walk, feed, or stay with your dog or cat at your home from early morning till late evening.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fox Valley
Maryna did an amazing job pet sitting for our pup. She spent over an hour on the first day allowing our dog to get used to her. She was on time each day twice a day to walk our dog and made sure she had plenty of snacks. We really appreciate the updates while we were out and will definitely look to rebook in the future. Thanks again for the care you shared to our dog!!!

We had a meet and greet with Lynnette before her booked walk with Cooper and we knew she would be great! She was attentive and caring in a way that immediately put us at ease. Cooper was relaxed, happier, and clearly excited for every walk. The updates we received were thoughtful and detailed, often including little observations that reassured us our dog is in great hands. What really stands out is the level of trust Lynnette inspired. It’s not easy handing over your pet to someone new, but she exceeded every expectation. Punctual, communicative, and clearly passionate about dogs, we could not have asked for a better experience! We're lucky to have found Lynnette and couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Gillian was absolutely amazing with my Dalmatian I would definitely recommend her over and over again. She put my little guy at ease and he always came back smiling and he would hug her when she got here, so I would say he’s a very happy client, that adored her. Thanks Gillian! We appreciate you!

Lauren is an exceptional walker with unmatched qualifications. Her level of care goes beyond anything that any other walker can provide. I've had great experiences with every dog walker we've had over the years on Rover, including Lauren. Every walker has been highly reliable, compassionate, and a good communicator - including Lauren. But Lauren is also an experienced veterinary nurse, which makes her combined qualifications entirely unmatched in my experience. Having previously owned a mature business, one of the many perks was being able to choose who I worked with. Being able to turn away a prospective customer - or letting go a current customer - is a reward for any successful business owner or practitioner. Consider yourself fortunate if your dog is in Lauren's great care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Fox Valley on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 11,535 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fox Valley. 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 Fox Valley. 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 Fox Valley.

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 Fox Valley. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
