About: I have loved animals all my life, and my experience has ranged from caring for my own pets, to short-term and long-term fostering for friends and military families. I have cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, lizards, bunnies, birds and small livestock. I love them and treat them all as though they are my own. I am currently a currently a stay at home mom, and my children are now all school-aged. I care for my animals at home, and I have an open schedule, heart, and home to care for other animals. I have a about 1.3 acres of land with a dedicated (vinyl) fenced in area for dogs so I have plenty of room for outdoor playtime. Indoors, a few of my animals are crated at night based on their individual needs but all walk freely during the day. In your home, I am open to whatever is most comfortable for your pet.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young girl. I also have worked as a Veterinary Technician on Langley Air Force Base. I enjoy pet sitting all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am retired and involved in some weekly activities, so pet sitting fits perfectly with my schedule. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility of pet sitting, not to mention the joy of being around pets. I am attentive, detail oriented and versatile. I believe in leaving things the way I found them, or better. I always strife to do my best at whatever I do, and I am a very trustworthy person.

Savanah was great walking my 2 beagles. She was always on time and my dogs really liked her.. one of my dogs is a little special and Savanah seems to figure that out and made her feel more comfortable when walking with her. I would recommend her!

Victoria is amazing! She is extremely communicative and reliable in her services. I have a nervous pet and she went above and beyond to ensure that my dog and I were at ease. She was also able to help me in short notice. She is fantastic and I plan to use her again in the future :)

About: I have three dogs that I have trained and taken care of since they were puppies. My oldest is 10 years and youngest is 4 years old. They are my world and I truly love training and taking care of them. I am my friends and family's go to pet sitter when they are out of town, so my pups are used to having other dog visitors! I'm very reliable and will treat all animals as if they are my own. I'm on Rover so I can meet and take care of other dogs instead of adding another to my pack ;) I work from home mostly so I am flexible regarding when I can take care of your pet. Morning, lunchtime, or evening walks - I will try to accommodate to whatever you and your pet needs! I have three friendly dogs and a large fenced yard. I’m downstairs with my pups all day while working from home. I enjoy taking breaks and playing with them through out the day.

About: Animals have been part of my life since the day I was born. I grew up on a farm outside of St. Louis where animals of all kinds were just daily life — not pets you visited, but family you lived alongside. As an only child, they were my closest companions, and that relationship followed me through every chapter of my life, across three states and a military base in Japan. My family’s experience with animals goes well beyond dogs and cats. Over the years we cared for an array of reptiles, frogs, rabbits, turtles, fish (at one point well over 100), two large-breed dogs, and multiple cats. My parents also bred and sold birds privately and to pet stores, including budgies, cockatiels, finches, lovebirds, and parrots. My first real taste of pet care as a service came when we were stationed in Japan, where we informally provided doggy daycare for my dad’s coworkers alongside our own two dogs. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m consistently available Monday through Friday from 9am to 3pm, which means your pet gets attentive, present care during the hours most sitters are at a desk job. No rushing home, no checking the clock. I left home to serve in the Navy, and while our household is currently pet-free (we’re waiting to see what direction our daughter gravitates toward before adding a new family member), the knowledge and instincts I built over a lifetime of hands-on animal care don’t go anywhere. One thing I always want to be upfront about: my daughter will be with me when I provide services. She’s 3 years old and genuinely one of the gentlest kids I’ve seen around animals. She approaches them the way she approaches babies — slow, soft, and full of care. She would happily take one of every animal home if she could. That said, I completely understand that some pets don’t do well around small children, and I’d rather be honest about that upfront than put your pet in an uncomfortable situation. If that’s your pet, I may not be the right fit, and there’s no hard feelings in that. What I can offer is a lifetime of real, hands-on experience with an enormous range of animals, a calm and attentive approach to care, and genuine love for the animals I work with. Your pet won’t just be looked after — they’ll be treated like family. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine rather than being squeezed around a work schedule. I’m available Monday through Friday from 9am to 4pm and can give visiting pets consistent, unhurried attention throughout the day. Walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins all happen on a real schedule; not whenever I can manage to fit them in. All care takes place in your home, so your pet stays in the environment they already know and feel safe in. For drop-in visits and daycare, I follow your routines, your rules, and your preferences — my job is to be a seamless, trustworthy extension of you, not to do things my way. I’ll always communicate how visits go, including any changes in behavior, appetite, or energy that you’d want to know about. If your pet needs medication, has specific dietary needs, or requires a particular routine, I’m comfortable handling that. I bring 25 years of hands-on experience with a wide range of animals and temperaments, so you can feel confident leaving your pet in my care.

About: I genuinely love animals. I am the type of person who stops everyone and asks if I can pet their dog. I do have professional training in taking care of animals; I worked at an animal rescue and a doggy daycare! I am 25 years old and I have my own transportation and will work very hard to take care of your pet! I have experience walking dogs of all ages and sizes. I also have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages. Including animals with special food requirements, feeding instructions and giving medications such as pills. I have some training in dogs with temperament issues. I also have experience in taking care of cats, fish and reptiles if needed. I just graduated with my masters degree so my schedule is all over the place, just ask me if I’m free and I’ll let you know! I have my schedule in advance normally. I have experience in crating dogs if that’s what’s required for your pet. My own dogs now are free roamers around the house so I have experience with excited or guarded animals when entering the home. I like being given clear directions so I know how to best care for your fur babies!

About: Ever sense I was a kid I've loved taking care of any animal under the sun, and I still do. When I got my first dog I was so excited and loved him no matter what. I am currently not working so I have all the time in the world for your pets. I am avaliable on weekdays at anytime and will give your pets the attention they want. I can give all of my attention to your pets and make them feel happy and excited or the opposite where both of us can relax and enjoy eachothers company.

Nice gentle with my girl. Willing to try whatever thought would motivate, but usually based on what I suggested. Appears to be cautious and not wanting to hurt dog. Definately likes animals. Much interactive with my dog after we all called it a day. Client was being very recalcitrant. Perhaps do some bonding before attempting walk next te

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs since I was barely tall enough to see over a food bowl, and that lifelong hands-on experience shaped me into someone who naturally understands animal behavior, routines, and training. I’ve personally trained my own dogs and have always been deeply involved in their care, from daily structure to behavior shaping and enrichment. Right now I share my home with a cat who keeps life interesting, and I’m very attentive to creating a happy, stable environment for pets. Animals have always been a constant part of my life, and caring for them feels less like a task and more like second nature. 🐾 My schedule is pretty structured around my work hours: I work 4pm–12am, and outside of that I’m home and available for the rest of the day. I keep my routine simple and steady, and I’m usually around in the mornings and early afternoons before heading into work. I’m not someone who’s constantly on the go or juggling a million commitments—my life is more grounded in work, home, and taking care of my pets. That balance gives me a lot of consistency and time to focus on what matters day to day. I take safety and trust seriously when it comes to animals and their environment. In the past, I’ve crate-trained my dogs and learned how to create calm, structured routines that help them feel secure and well-behaved. I’m comfortable setting boundaries in a gentle but consistent way, depending on the needs of each pet. My home is also very pet-safe, especially because my current cat is extremely curious and determined to investigate everything. I’ve adapted my space to keep hazards out of reach and ensure it’s a safe, enriched environment where pets can explore without getting into trouble. I pay close attention to what they can access and how they interact with their surroundings, so safety is always built into the way I live with animals. 🐾

About: I’ve always loved animals, I have a 4 year old Australian Shepherd and he is my whole world. I will treat your fur baby with the love, care, and attention that I show my own fur baby. When I’m watching your pet, they will be safe, happy, and have the best time! I currently work full time, but I am available late evenings on week days and all day on most weekends. I am always happy to be flexible with my schedule. I live in an apartment so my dog gets plenty of walks, outdoor time, mental, and physical stimulation throughout the day. I provide a calming, safe environment in my home for my pup, and I bring that same calm and caring energy to every animal I meet.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Grove on Rover is $10.7 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,096 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Grove. 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 Grove. 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 Grove.

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 Grove. On Rover:

  • 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
