About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats since I can remember. I’ve always had them in my home growing up and now I have a dog of my own. I also had smaller pets such as hamsters and gerbils as well as fish and hermit crabs. I love going for walks with pets or even spending time with them in your home so they feel comfortable. I work full time for the Rochester Public Schools as a Mental Health Practitioner, so I have summers off. My availability during the school year is weekdays I am available 4pm and after, and weekends I am wide open. Summertime I am available and free to fit you and your pet’s needs. I know how it feels to have something pop up last minute and have to stress on what to do with your pet, so I am more than happy to work with you on such short notice. Currently only accepting requests within the Kasson, Byron, Hayfield, Dodge Center area due to my kid’s daily schedules. I have two sweet boys, along with a cat. I know how different each dog’s personality and needs are, so I am happy to work with their routine and their comfort level. I like to make sure that there is as much normalcy for them as possible.

About: I've taken care of and owned many types of animals in my life including but not limited to Dogs, Cats, Mini horse, turtles, geckos, bearded dragons, snakes, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, ferrets, birds, and rabbits. I love all animals and nature! I currently am working a full time job 7am-3pm Monday - Fridays and want to see where rover takes me as I enjoy all animals I have 2 dogs one is 14lb and the other 22lbs. They are spoiled and love to play and will keep your pup company. I own 2 crates if needed. My dogs usually have 24/7 access to their food. However if needed during boardings (when I'm offering that service) if feedings are scheduled for a specific time this can be worked with as well.

Hound has been great with our dogs and they seem relaxed and happy when we get home. Manages the needs of our very old husky and young border collie mix very well so they both get the attention and exercise they need.

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and I currently have a 7 year old, large breed dog. He comes with his own health related needs, including abnormal development of his hips and arthritis. This has allowed me to learn how to handle and care for dogs with similar issues, as well as be cautious and considerate of the needs of the animals I care for. I am able to follow special instructions and make sure I’m giving your pet the care they deserve. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter for several years, providing mostly socialization and walking of the pets. I work limited hours during the summer months, but typically am working 7:30-4:00pm during the end of August-May. With most of my summers off, I am looking to spend additional time during the day to play and care for your pet(s)! I have a Great Dane/mastiff mix and he is my whole world! He has high standards for his care and knows it too. I will treat your pet just like I’d treat my own. I will do my best to make your pet feel comfortable and happy during their time with me!

About: I have taken care of dogs as large as an Italian Mastiff and as small as mini schnauzers. I am comfortable and confident with handling dogs of all temperaments. I currently go to college full time. I only have classes in the mornings, so my days are pretty open to spend time with dogs or take them on walks. I currently have 4 mini schnauzers at home and provide them with a safe and loving environment. I would bring that same care for your beloved pet.

About: I have always been around animals and have had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and even birds. I really enjoy taking care of all animals and providing excellent service. My family has a bird, two shih tzus, and a cat. I have frequently been around bigger breeds as well so I am comfortable with any-sized pet. I have experience walking other people's dogs and pet sitting for family and family friends. I am busy this summer preparing for college in the fall, but I wanted something that I care about to fill some of my free time. I am also saving up for college expenses. I would love to make pet sitting/walking a major part of my life. I would be able to watch pets at the owners' home. I will be able to watch them overnight, and or come over to check on them as well as taking walks and playing with them.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my unique combination of skills in puppy training and senior dog care. I use positive reinforcement methods to help puppies develop good habits and social skills, ensuring a smooth transition into adulthood. For senior dogs, I provide compassionate care that includes tailored exercise and medication management to keep them comfortable and healthy. My personalized approach and commitment to open communication ensure that both you and your furry friend feel secure and cared for while you're apart. On workdays, I start my morning with walks and playtime before my shift, setting a positive tone for both myself and the you fur babies! In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their pet’s routine to minimize stress. I follow their established schedules for feeding, walks, and playtime, while ensuring that their space remains clean and organized. I provide plenty of attention and affection, and I keep the home environment safe by being mindful of potential hazards. I also communicate regularly with pet owners, sending updates and photos to keep them informed and connected to their furry friends. Whether in my home or a client’s, my goal is to provide a nurturing and engaging experience for every pet in my care.

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs since I was 5 years old and have a lifelong love for animals. Over the years I’ve gained experience caring for many different pets, including helping take care of my sister’s three German Shepherds as well as watching friends’ cats and dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family and always make their comfort and safety a priority. I run my own business so can make my own schedule to meet with my customers schedules as well. Very flexible on my days and times for stopping by your house. Can let the dogs out inside your fenced in area and sit outside until they come in. Can also do the same if they go on leash or chain around the yard. Will sit outside until it's time to go back in the house.

About: I’ve had dogs consistently in my house since I was born. We have had big german shorthairs, as well as miniature schnauzers so I’m accommodating to any size dog, and can easily take care of them. I’ve just returned from school abroad and am back looking for a full-time job but in the meanwhile will be petsitting/walking/etc. whenever is asked of me. I have a pretty free schedule, so most any booking should work. I would be super considerate of any rules applied by the owners whether in the clients home or mine. I just have a lot of fun bonding and playing with animals, so I’m happy to perform all pet care servcies.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including dogs of all ages. I have hands-on experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs who require extra attention, medication, and a gentle touch. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime, or just providing comfort and companionship, I genuinely love caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and happy. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and calm, caring nature. I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to learn their personality. I’m reliable, communicative, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable. I fit pet care into my routine during my free time, usually in the mornings and evenings during the week, and more flexible on weekends. I ensure a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent routines, and lots of affection. I follow specific care instructions and prioritize the pet’s comfort and well-being.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Grand Meadow

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Grand Meadow on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 264 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Grand Meadow. 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 Grand Meadow. 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 Grand Meadow.

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 Grand Meadow. On Rover:

  • 82% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
