About: I’m always that person at the party who hangs out with the sweet dogs. I’ve always had pets in the house. When your pet is happy, I’m happy. I enjoy getting to know them! I’m currently on a very flexible schedule. Having a position like this brings me great joy. I’m also a flexible personality, and an excellent communicator. I am very thorough with communicating with you about your pets needs. I feel very comfortable being in the pets home. I can imagine it’s hard for an animal being in a new home with totally different and unfamiliar scents. I’d be happy to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. Getting to know them, and what they enjoy, is one of the best parts about this position!

About: With a nurturing touch and an innate ability to quickly bond with animals, I provide exceptional pet care by treating them as cherished family members. Specializing in both puppy training and senior care, I ensure that each pet receives personalized attention and the highest standard of care. Drawing from my experience of owning multiple dogs since the age of 12, I understand the unique needs and dynamics of canine companionship. After completing my morning workouts, basketball training, and studies, I have plenty of free time throughout the day. I find solace in spending time with pets during these moments of relaxation. It's a genuine joy for me, and I'm always available to make new furry friends whenever the opportunity arises. I create a safe and cozy environment for pets, whether it's at my place or yours.

About: Ever since I was little, I have had a passion for all animals, big and small, of every kind. I have 4 pets of my own, 1 cat and 2 dogs (a Shih Tzu and an American Staffordshire) and a guinea pig! I have been taking care of pets for over 20 years. Anytime a family member or friend will be out of town, they all know they can count on me to provide unconditional love and care for their pets, because they know... PETS ARE MY PASSION. THEY ARE FAMILY! I am open and flexible with my schedule, and can accommodate most needs. I have experience with puppies, kittens, birds, bunnies, older cats, and older dogs, (and sick pets too 😞) I have lost a few pets in my life, but all have lived long healthy lives with so much love. I'm familiar and comfortable with giving pets their medicine if needed. I have lots of love to give, to all the animals I meet! Rest assured, your pets will be cared for! **AVAILABLE ON HOLIDAYS!** I am a self employed house cleaner, so my schedule is very flexible. I can and will work around your schedule to provide the utmost care for your pets when needed. I ALWAYS provide photos and keep you updated on your pets!! I understand that time is a valuable thing, so I always make sure my pets, and others are always taken care of. I take pride in my pet care. I am honest, and patient, and it makes me so happy when pets get excited to see their owners, or guests.

About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.

About: I have dog sat for family friends several times and stayed over at their houses while doing so. I have a dog of my own and I trained her when she was a puppy. I have worked with different sizes of dogs and different levels of obedience. I am currently a college student so my hours will differ depending on the day, but I know that I have have time to fit pet care into my schedule. I am after 12pm on Tuesdays and after 2pm on Thursdays. The remaining days of the week I am pretty much free almost any time during the day. I find that even though my schedule is a little weird that may be beneficial as I can provide pet care at a variety of times. I care for pets in the way that they need to be cared for. I check on them often, make sure they are not anxious, as well as ensure they are getting plenty of exercise. If I am in a clients home I ensure the space is kept clean and the pet is happy and healthy.

About: I’ve always loved animals and treat every pet like family! I’m caring, patient, and attentive, and I love giving pets plenty of love, playtime, cuddles, and companionship. My goal is to make your fur baby feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐾💕 Hi! 🐾 I’m a stay-at-home mom with a very flexible schedule, so I’m home most of the time and available to give your pets plenty of love and attention. I’m dependable, caring, and would treat your fur babies like they’re my own. I’d love the opportunity to help with walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting! 💕 I have a nice-sized home and prefer pets who enjoy being indoors. Your pet will have their own comfortable space in my home, and you’re welcome to bring a crate or kennel if they’re more comfortable with their own setup. I can also provide their usual food if needed. I have two children, ages 2½ years and 7.5 pmonths. My older child is very mature and understands boundaries and directions. I’ll always gradually introduce her to your pet and only allow interaction if you’re comfortable with it. Otherwise, your pet can have plenty of quiet space downstairs with me. I also have safety gates on my stairs to help keep everyone safe and comfortable.

As of October 2026, there are 2,263 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Glen Carbon. 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 Glen Carbon. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Glen Carbon after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 , 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 .

  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

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.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
