About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with three Yorkies, so I know small breeds and their big personalities well. As an adult, I had a German Shepherd and Lab mix who was my loyal companion for 12 wonderful years. Since he passed, I've regularly cared for friends' dogs, and they trust me because I treat every pet like my own. Right now I care for a 3-year-old Goldendoodle, a 7-year-old Yorkie, a 6-year-old Shih Tzu, and a 3-year-old Schnauzer. That gives me daily experience with a wide range of sizes, energy levels, and ages, from playful young dogs to calmer seniors. I'm comfortable with feeding routines, walks, grooming needs, and giving each dog the attention and patience they need to feel safe and happy. I work from home, so your dog won't be left alone for long stretches. I love taking dogs on three walks a day, and honestly it keeps me active too. I live right across the street from a large park in Morton Grove, so there's plenty of green space for sniffing, exploring, and burning off energy. I also have two kids who adore dogs, so your pup will get lots of love, playtime, and attention from the whole family. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I work from home. Each morning and afternoon I walk my kids to and from school, and your dog is welcome to join us for those walks. After 3:30, my kids are home and love spending time playing with and giving attention to the dogs. On weekends, your pup gets extra walks, playtime, and cuddles with the whole family. I live in a single-family home with a yard, giving your dog a safe, comfortable place to play, relax, and get fresh air between walks. Since I work from home, I’m around most of the day to keep a close eye on them. When I do need to head out for work, dogs who are comfortable with car rides are welcome to come along with me. Otherwise, your dog can stay in our bright, cozy sunroom, where they’ll have their own calm, secure space until I’m back. I follow your dog’s usual routine for meals, walks, and bedtime so they feel right at home.
“Caroline is so dependable and truly great with dogs. Sue absolutely loves our dog and he looks so forward to playing with her. I have complete trust in her knowing Cody is in great hands.”
“Susan is FANTASTIC! Very knowledgeable and great at working with our young occasionally over energetic large breed puppy! She's very reliable and holds herself to high standards of communication and we've really enjoyed having her work with our family and hope the opportunity presents itself again in the future! Work with Susan...she is THE BEST!”
“We had a great experience with Jenny! She was right on time and kept us updated throughout the walk. Our dog was happy and well cared for. We were very pleased and will absolutely be using her again. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie was wonderful! She was quick to respond and showed up early. My puppy loved her! They walked and played and he had such a great time. Stephanie was very professional and easy to work with. I would absolutely use Stephanie to watch my dog. She showed him love and attention and knew what to do with a puppy. Great experience!”
“Tamara's great! While she was on vacation, Mosie had another dog walker whom he also liked but he and I are both excited to have Tamara back! She adjusts her schedule to meet Mosie's needs and truly cares about him; the dogs she walks are not just job and the dogs can tell that she cares.”
About: Starting at a young age of 8, I've cared for animals of friends and family. Ranging in all ages of cats and dogs, I'm confident in administering medication if needed and not scared of any sort of clean up. Having just moved back to the Chicagoland area from NOLA, my schedule is flexible. I am available for drop in visits and dog walking! I like to bike when weather permits but have access to a car as well. I do not offer services at my home but would treat yours as my own. Of course, cleaning up after your fur bb(s), following specific directions, and making sure they are settled before leaving.
About: I’ve had a passion for animals since I was a little girl. I get along with all my neighbors’ dogs and my neighbors rely on me to take care of them some times. My old roommate has a golden retriever and I love taking care of him, giving him a bath and walking him. I have two cats at home and I even taught them some tricks! I’m currently working part time only on Mondays and Thursdays. So I have lots of free time outside of work taking care of your dogs and playing with them! I also have a car so I can drive to wherever you are and take your dogs for a walk where they are the most comfortable with. I live right next to the bike trail and woods, which is a paradise for dogs! If you have an athletic or active dog, I’ll take your dog running the trails, swimming in the pond, and have all the fun in the outside world! If your dog is less active, I’ll give your dog all the comfort and love at home, making sure they are well fed and entertained.
“This was our first time using Erica. She was great. She arrived within our pre set time frame, took Baxter on a good walk and played with him at home before leaving. I got cute pictures and he was happy and tired when we got home. She’s already been rebooked.”
“I would highly recommend Kevin and we will be using him again. He is very responsible and extremely punctual. He was on time for every visit. He sent pictures and videos for every walk. He responded to every concern promptly when I texted him. My dog Patch liked Kevin so much he did not want him to leave.”
“Alexis is awesome! She clearly loves and is comfortable with dogs and connected with my owner-attached dog straight away. She is super friendly and easy to work with. She also is very responsible--she was on time, listened to and executed my exercise requirements for my dog. I will definitely use her again!”
“Jasper was great! I had a very last minute booking and my dog was a little nervous but Jasper was very communicative and easy going which smoothed things over with no problems.”

Stephanie was wonderful! She was quick to respond and showed up early. My puppy loved her! They walked and played and he had such a great time. Stephanie was very professional and easy to work with. I would absolutely use Stephanie to watch my dog. She showed him love and attention and knew what to do with a puppy. Great experience!
Amy was wonderful! She had great communication and was very flexible, which we really appreciated. Our dog Brady can be very nervous around new people, and Amy was so patient, respected his boundaries, and followed our instructions without pushing him. We felt very comfortable having her work with him and are so happy we connected with her. We’ll definitely be using Amy for future walks and highly recommend her!
First time using Rover and I have full confidence in Claire C. I have a senior dog with health issues so I’m always concerned but Claire allows me to relax and focus on my job. Her communication is perfect and ability to adjust to dogs needs are fantastic. I appreciate her. Highly recommend.
Mirna is amazing! Milo looks forward to his walks with Mirna because she lets him take walk at his own pace and is so sweet around him. We look forward to her "Rover Card" every day because she is very detailed with her notes and you can not only tell she has experience with dogs, but also loves them. Thanks for everything you do.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Golf is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $24 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 12,544 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Golf. 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 Golf. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Golf 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 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 Golf. On Rover:
- 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
