About: We're a family of five who adore pets of all kinds! We had a wonderful dog named Peace for about six years and plenty of experience petsitting for friends and relatives. Due to travel commitments, we currently have no pets-- which gives us plenty of time to care for yours. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works on a hybrid schedule, which gives us plenty of flexibility and allows us to be home for the majority of the day. Our daughter is currently enrolled in online high school, so she has plenty of time to walk, care for, and play with your pets! We have a large fenced yard and are able to crate your pets if provided. We'll take dogs for walks a minimum of twice a day and let them roam in the yard/provide at least a couple more potty breaks.

Mario is a gem! Olive and I had such a great experience with Mario — he’s friendly, professional, and truly knows his stuff when it comes to dogs. From the very beginning, he connected with Olive and made her feel at ease. She was always excited to see him, and I felt completely confident leaving her in his care. What really stood out was how Mario handled an unexpected stomach issue Olive had one day. When he arrived for her walk, he noticed she’d had an accident inside and immediately recognized that something was off. Not only did he take care of the cleanup without hesitation, but he also kept me updated with calm, thoughtful messages and even brought rice on a follow-up visit to help settle her stomach. That kind of attentiveness instills so much confidence and really reinforces just how much he cares about the dogs he works with. Mario goes well beyond the basics — he’s compassionate, attentive, and clearly invested in the dogs he looks after. Olive and I are both so lucky to have found him. Can’t recommend him highly enough!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — from growing up with them to raising my own now. I currently care for a black Lab with a strong personality, so I understand leash control, structure, and clear boundaries. I’m calm, consistent, and confident with all breeds, including high-energy or reactive dogs. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walks, feeding, cleanup, and calming routines. Whether your dog needs structured exercise or just a reliable visitor, I’m ready to show up. I work part-time with a consistent, flexible routine that allows me to care for your dogs during the day. I’m available for walks and drop-ins: • Mondays after 11:00 AM • Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after 8:00 AM If your dog needs structured exercise, calm energy, or just a mid-morning break, I’ve got you covered. While I do not offer in-home boarding, I provide dependable drop-ins and walks tailored to your dog’s needs. I live with my own dog, Sam, who is reactive to other animals, so I cannot bring pets into my home — but this also means I understand how to work calmly and respectfully with dogs that may need space or structure. I’m confident handling leash reactivity, high-energy dogs, and special instructions.

About: I live in Edison Park, but work in McCook/Chicago during the day/week or sometimes from home. I manage my time really well, so I can make anything early in the morning,/on my lunch break work- plus weekends or after work. I have always had dogs my entire life. I grew up with a chocolate lab mix, then when she passed away my family got a three legged black lab and a chesapeake bay retriever. Then, when I was in college, a chocolate lab climbed into my car and after months of trying to find his owners, I decided to keep him. Those puppies have since passed, but our family has 2 giant black labs currently. I’ve also had 4 Guinea Pigs who I loved dearly. I currently work from home part of the time and love four legged angels (sometimes 3, I had a 3 legged dog growing up). I am available in the early mornings, evenings and on the weekends consistently, but can work out weekday daytime availability with advanced notice. I make sure the animals all have the appropriate food/water setups at all times (per owners instructions depending on pet’s specific needs), as well as making sure the temperature is comfortable for the pet. I prioritize exercise and bathroom breaks for each pet. There is never a lack of social interaction when I am around. Pretty much, I view pets as family and think they deserve the best. If they have specific requirements, I will always follow whatever rules the owner requests and talk through any concerns before booking.

About: I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine love and affection I have had for animals since a very young age. I have had 2 fur babies growing up. I make an effort to get to know each dog and their unique personality, habits, and routine. I’m happy to care for energetic puppies, provide gentle care for senior pets, and give every dog plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I want every pet to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their family is away. All in all the overwhelming love I have for pets has always been in me. I have graduated from college and have all the time in the world to give my all into your furry babies. Currently I am not working and this is something i’ve wanted to do for years and I finally have more than enough time to pursue it! I live in an apartment in which we have a big backyard for the pups to play, go potty and it’s perfect for walks. I do not have any other pets in my home. I am able to take them out for potty and play whenever they would like or need.

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.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Golf

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Golf 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 12,708 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 your Golf. 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 Golf.

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 Golf. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
