About: I've had a dog in my home my entire life, and am always the one my friends/family turn to if they need someone to look after their pets. I have also fostered multiple dogs with leash reactivity, and have had some 1-1 work with an R+ (positive reinforcement) trainer to ensure pups can have the best experience out and about in the world while still getting their sniffs and exercise in. I occasionally run outside so I can offer to run with your pup(s) 1-2 times a week if you'd like, and I live 5 minutes away from Baron Cameron park if you like for them to play with other pups during the day at a dog park as well. Or of course we can just snuggle most of the day while I work from home. Well either way there will be lots of snuggles and pets... My last dog passed away in 2025 after a year long battle with cancer, so I have no problem giving medicine and making sure we stay on a strict schedule with food/medicine if that is what your dog needs. I look forward to becoming your pup's new best friend! I work part-time from home. I'm available for day-sitting while you're at work or overnight boarding when you're out of town. I'm typically up by 7:30, have a fenced in backyard, go on walks/runs throughout the day and love going to the dog park if your pup enjoys it! I have a 6 foot fence in my backyard that your pup can play around in. Take 2-3 x 25 minute walks around the neighborhood throughout the day and can occasionally go for 30-60 minute jogs if your pup enjoys more exercise (1-2/week)

About: I currently work at a dog rescue. I volunteered as a dog washer at the humane society for a year. I pet sat relatives dogs in their home. I know how to respect dogs boundaries. Right now my schedule is somewhat flexible. I am available weekdays and weekends. I am unavailable on Monday, Tuesday and Friday from 4pm to 730pm. I am respectful of everyone’s home and treat it how I’d want a pet sitter to treat my own. I know the signs to take it slow with dogs and cats.

Francisco is an outstanding dog walker! He consistently goes above and beyond to make sure our dog is well cared for. After every walk, he communicates with me and provides thoughtful updates about how everything went, including anything he noticed that I should be aware of. What really stood out to me was his attention to detail and genuine care. During our last walk, it started raining, and he reached out to ask where he could find a towel so he could dry our dog off before leaving. That level of thoughtfulness meant a lot to me and showed how much he truly cares about the pets he looks after. I highly recommend Francisco to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. Your pet will be in great hands!

About: I have taken care of dogs since before I can remember! I grew up with my grandma’s chihuahua, Lucky, and our current dog Elsie, who is now 12 years old. Additionally I have frequently taken care of my neighbors pets as well. I am an animal and nature lover, and love spending time outdoors. I’ll be heading to graduate school in the fall, so this summer I will be very free to take care of your furry friends. Apart from an occasional family trip, I will be in the area and ready! Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities. I'm responsible, reliable, and attentive to your instructions and your pet's unique needs. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm environment with a securely fenced backyard for safe play and plenty of love and attention.

Skylar is the most professional and caring for our pet, he has been very communicative despite his busy schedule and always takes our dog on the best walks. We’ve been repeat clients for months and had we not been moving, we would have loved for him to be a part of our dogs life. Wish him all the best for his future and hope to meet him again down the line!

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, so I’ve had years of experience caring for animals and learning how to handle different personalities and needs. I’ve dog sat before and really enjoyed it—it made me realize how much I love being around animals. I love both dogs and cats, and I feel really comfortable caring for either. I’m a trustworthy, responsible person who takes pet care seriously, whether that means sticking to routines, going on walks, or just making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, not just “watching” them. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits pretty easily into my routine. I’m flexible with my schedule, so I can plan around walks, feeding times, and whatever each pet needs day to day. I’m already someone who likes staying active and being out and about, so I don’t mind making time for drop-ins, walks, or longer stays. I’m good with sticking to routines and making sure pets get consistent care and attention while their owners are away. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and sticking closely to their normal routine, feeding, walks, meds if needed, and any specific instructions. I’m very mindful about safety, like making sure doors are locked, leashes are secure, and always keeping a close eye on pets. I treat every animal like my own, so I’m really attentive to their behavior and needs. I also respect the home I’m in and keep things clean and organized. Overall, I try to create a calm, safe environment where pets feel cared for while their owners are away.

About: I’ve cared for animals for years and have experience with both dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, administering basic medications, and providing lots of attention. I also have experience caring for my own cat and helping friends, neighbors, and family with their pets. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends depending on the booking. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to work with your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any specific care requests. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable in their environment. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Great Falls

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Great Falls on Rover is $15.54 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 16,438 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Great Falls. 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 Great Falls. 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 Great Falls.

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 Great Falls. On Rover:

  • 89% 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.
