About: I have my own dog and two cats, I can pick up after and play with your pets. I am easily adaptable, so if your pet requires things like medications I am willing to help. I currently have a part-time job, so I will only be available during weekdays. I am mostly available around midday hours, but can be flexible if I can work it in my schedule. I can take your pet on a walk or simpley watch over your pet for a bit. I myself have a dog and two cats, so I am familiar with feeding and picking up after animals.

Just had our first walk and she was as very patient with my two dogs that were a bit confused by walking with someone else for the first time.

Kim is the most caring dog walker we’ve ever had on Rover. She was attentive and sweet from day one with our dog Leo and we’re sad to see her go.

About: With over a year of dedicated pet care experience, I treat every animal like a member of my own family. In addition to providing reliable dog walking and drop-in care, I currently work in professional animal care, volunteer at my local shelter, and am studying to become a veterinary assistant. This extensive background means I am highly skilled at reading animal body language, managing high-energy walks, and ensuring your pet stays safe and happy right in their own home. My goal is to keep your pet's daily routine perfectly on track and give you total peace of mind while you are out. My Availability for Walks & Drop-Ins My schedule is highly flexible and built around my animal care commitments. I am in class two days a week from 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM, and I work my other animal care job on Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays—but my work hours on those days are pretty flexible! Outside of my class times, I have plenty of availability throughout the week for morning, afternoon, and evening drop-in visits or walks. Whether you need a consistent mid-day break or a quick evening feeding, I can easily adjust my calendar to fit your pet's routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. Because of my formal training as a future veterinary assistant and my experience volunteering at the shelter, I am highly attentive to animal behavior, body language, and home safety. During drop-ins and walks, I ensure your home remains secure, double-check that gates and doors are locked, and keep a watchful eye out for any potential hazards. You can trust that your furry family member will always be in safe, capable hands, receiving the same gentle care and respect that I would give to my own pets.

Emily is very good with my two dogs Alfie and Beanie. They are always happy to see her and go on their walks. She always arrives on time and is very easy and nice to deal with. I plan to continue having her walk my pups and hope it's working out well for her as well.

About: Hi my name is Yocheved, but a lot of people call me Yo, or Ava. I am an only parent to a wonderful, active middle schooler. We have a happy home full of love and laughter, and 2 kitties. After 14 magical years together, we lost our dog to old age, a couple years back. I miss the feel of having a dog around, but I know in my heart of hearts we are all a little older, and a little busier, and our home cannot house a new permanent four-legged resident. But I do not accept the lack of dogs in our lives! I said yes to dog sitting lately, and I have made so many new friends since. Hanging out with your dogs or cats when you're unable to be there- it's become a thing I look forward to in my home. I love walking the neighborhood or doing drop-ins to feed cats. Let me help you! I'm currently WFH part time, and tend to end my days on the early side, for parenting purposes. Because of this I'm pretty flexible and available throughout the week. I tend to all pets, like I would for my own. I cared for my dog through cancer, twice- so I'm pretty familiar with medicine, senior care, and all the extra effort needed for older or sick animlas. I love to walk, burn off energy, and snuggle. Happy to do light grooming (brushing), and send photos and videos throughout our time together!

About: I have owned and cared for more than 50 animals in my 38 years 🥰 I currently have a 3 year old cat, a 2 year old cat, and a 1 year old cat. I had 2 dogs over the course of almost 19 years (12 years old and 16 years old when they passed). I grew up with skunks, cats, dogs, hamsters, lizards, and more. I also have been fostering with local rescues for more than 10 years. Overall, I am just a big animal lover and find joy in watching other people's fur babies 🥰 I work from home full time, which allows me to have a flexible schedule. Evenings, weekends, and overnights can also be arranged. If you need anything overnight I prefer to stay at your home with your pets so they are comfortable and can stay in their normal routine. Let's discuss your needs! I am happy to follow whatever instructions you have for me to care for your furbabies! I know each pet is different. Generally, dogs go out to potty several times a day, as well as need fresh food and water daily. Cats also need fresh food and water daily, plus cleaning their litter boxes at least once a day.

About: I’ve owned pets almost my entire life. I’ve had cats, turtles, and dogs! There’s not an animal I wouldn’t love. Animals has always been a security blanket for me. I currently own 1 dog, her name is Trixie. Shes a rescue and came with a lot of trauma. Shes been making huge progress. I had a 14yo Yorkie Poo who recently passed— he lived a long, happy life. I am attentive, loving, playful, organized, and happy to help where I can! I am a full time teacher so my Summers are pretty open! I can be available Monday-Saturday starting early mornings to evenings. I can be very flexible. I have a fenced in backyard where my dog can run freely. We go for leashed walks around the neighborhood as well. I know how to crate train. I had a senior dog who passed at 14yo so I know how to take care of senior dogs who takes medication. I am active if dogs need to release energy. I’m organized and can stick to a schedule/routine for dogs in training. I can do it all! Lol

About: Hi my name is aaziya and I have over 10 years of pet care experience and I am very flexible. Whether your fur baby is reactive, special needs, or you have specific instructions on how you want them cared for, I do it all! My schedule is very open due to the fact that I just left a pet grooming job where I didn’t feel very much comfortable and couldn’t fit into my day to day life Since I don’t have anything other than getting my son to and from daycare that needs my attention, your pet will have all of my undivided attention to care for all their needs! I also have a very large yard for them to either burn energy or just relax in the sun.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. When a couple of years ago we lost our senior family dog, I started volunteering with a local rescue and have fostered 20+ puppies over the past few years. Fostering has given me experience with everything from energetic, playful pups to post-surgery care—things like baths, basic grooming, medications (even injections), vet pickups, and lots of patience and love. I also help neighbors with dog walking and pet sitting, so I’m used to different personalities and routines. I truly just love being around dogs—and getting outside for walks is a bonus for me too! I’m available for afternoon and evening walks or check-ins during the week. On weekends, I have much more flexibility and I am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, or multiple visits if needed. I’m also happy to stick to your dogs’s usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. During walks and check-ins, I follow your instructions closely, keep dogs secure on leash, and make sure they get the right balance of exercise, attention, and care. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet like my own.

About: I have walked dogs ever since I was little. I have also always been trusted to dog sit and house sit for family and friends. I take caring for pets very seriously because they are my favorite too! I’m a recent college grad looking to provide pet care! I’m available pretty much any day of the week. I have a friendly dog and can take walks and play. I also am going into training so I might practice or work with any pets if possible! For now I just offer house sitting or drop in visits for walks or other needs. I love a good play time in or outdoors and go on walks.

About: Hi! I’m Hannah, and I absolutely love pets of all kinds. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have cared for three of my own. I’ve also provided dog-sitting and cat-sitting over the years, which has given me a strong understanding of different personalities, routines, and care needs. I treat every pet like family and focus on creating a fun, safe, and loving environment. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I prioritize giving each pet consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. A typical day starts with morning potty breaks, fresh water, and a walk or play session to get their energy out. Throughout the day, I provide regular check-ins, feeding on schedule, enrichment activities, and lots of love. I stay flexible so I can match your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I follow whatever routine the owner prefers to make your pet feel comfortable and at home. I can take dogs on walks or runs, provide fresh water, give meals on schedule, and spend quality time playing or cuddling whatever your pet needs! Safety, clear communication, and trust are my top priorities.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Gates Mills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 2,275 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Gates Mills. 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 Gates Mills. 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 Gates Mills.

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 Gates Mills. On Rover:

  • 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
