“Murphy is extremely punctual, and really optimized his time with my dog on her walks. I saw how increasingly excited she got seeing him with each passing day, which says a lot!”
“Sarah has provided us a fantastic first Rover experience. She is extremely communicative and we love the photo updates she sends. We would recommend her to other dog owners.”
“Jana is the best! Gordy has a lot of energy but also tuckers out quick, she's great at observing where he's at and going gentle when he needs it but also reving up when he can use it”
“Margaret was lovely! She was prompt, professional, and generous with her time with my senior dog. Lily absolutely adores her and I intend to use Margaret for all future boarding, sitting or walks needed!”
“We just started working with Daniel and we are so happy to have connected with them! They are so kind, accommodating and excellent with communicating! My puppy was so excited to see them again! 🙌🏽✨”
About: Hi there! My name is Maddie and I am very excited to be joining Rover. Thank you for considering me as your new pet sitter or dog walker. I have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was 14 years old and have always enjoyed taking care of animals. I am always punctual (usually early) and keep a very organized schedule. I like to go above and beyond when it comes to customer service and will care for your pet as if it were my own. My schedule is currently very flexible and I am happy to accommodate you and your pets needs. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or would like to meet in person! Thank you.
“Matthew is great with the dogs and we are happy we found him! Plus the dogs are quite enamored. Billie loves to watch him leave through the dining room window after each walk.”
“Wonderful with my reactive dog Betty. Completely understands the approach to walking her and even offered some new strategies. Very friendly and Betty loves him.”
About: I have had a family dog my entire life and take care of her while my parents are gone. I walk, feed, and play with her every day. I also have experience with puppies! Pet care is a natural part of my routine, throughout my childhood and now. Daily walks with my dog Lily are also a way that I relax in the morning and evenings and enjoy them as much as she does! I feed our family dog Lily twice daily. She receives two walks daily in the mornings and evenings, and a few times a week she runs off-leash in our local golf course. She loves treats and playing with toys!
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and other pets, each with their own unique personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve built wonderful relationships with pets and their owners. I treat every furry guest like part of the family and always strive to make their stay a positive and enjoyable experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend plenty of time with my furry guests, making sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety is always my priority. I provide a clean, welcoming home, follow your pet’s usual routine, and carefully supervise all activities. I also send regular photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Gisele was heaven sent for our family- she walked our dogs for 2 weeks while i was out of town to help my husband and she was prompt, friendly and efficient. Our dogs loved her! Highly recommend !”
About: Hey There! My name is Damian! I’m a 23 year old dog loving guy who is always excited to meet new and recurring dogs. I can handle almost any size dog with my experience of growing up with 20 chihuahuas and owning massive boxer’s and dogo aregentino’s. I love walking because it allows me to exercise with a companion who needs and enjoys the walk as much as I do. I have volunteered at the Human Society in Honolulu, Hawai’i, and have been an affiliate of multiple veterinarian clinics who’s clients are seeking a dog sitter. I love dogs with my whole being and the ability to meet and take care of these babies while getting paid doesn’t even sound like work. Hopefully you hire me, but if not, atleast you know about me. Thank you! I’m an actor with lots of free time. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to be with your pups! I have auditions about once a week and I bartend on the weekend but that’s about it. I try and provide them with the essentials if not already given to me. That varies from client to client. I make sure the dog is given enough attention but also enough space since I know they’re probably missing their owner.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Highland Park
Andrew was professional, friendly, and reliable in every way. He was always quick to respond, punctual, and excellent at communicating. Most importantly, his morning walks brought so much joy to my dog! I highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.
Steven is the best! My dog Seymour gets super excited to see him, and he isn’t the greatest on-leash (big dog, lots of energy) but I know he’s in great hands with Steven for both walks and overnight stays. Can’t recommend him enough and Seymour definitely agrees!
Alejandro was fantastic with our dogs, Juji and Leo! He was reliable, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease while they were in his care. It was clear they were well looked after, and we really appreciated the updates and attention he gave them. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust, and we’re excited to book with Alejandro again in the future. Highly recommend!
Maggie has been an amazing weekly walker for Riggy! Riggy gets so excited every time she sees her, which says everything. She handles Riggy’s rambunctious energy like a pro (even when she has to wrestle with the harness because Riggy insists on trying to bite it when it gets put on her 😂). Maggie always makes sure Riggy has water during her walks and even refills her water bowl afterward, which we really appreciate. She’s incredibly easy to schedule with, reliable, and it’s obvious she genuinely loves animals. Most importantly, we completely trust Maggie and know Riggy is in the best hands whenever they’re together. That’s exactly why she’s become our number one go-to walker. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

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 Highland Park. 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 , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
