“Allison is awesome. She walks my dog, Binx 3-4 times a week while I’m at work, and she’s been absolutely wonderful. She’s also so pleasant and communicates extremely well. She is always incredibly accommodating whenever I need to adjust a walk time and is always understanding. My dog is always excited to see her, It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I highly recommend Allison 10/10”
About: I grew up with my family’s various rescue cats and dogs, so I’ve always been an animal lover. Since childhood, I’ve also enjoyed pet sitting for friends, family members, and neighbors whenever I’ve had the opportunity to do so. I’ve mainly looked after cats and dogs, but I also have experience caring for birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, horses, and a couple of different types of lizards. I have some experience with training my family’s pets, and lots of experience with giving love to animals of all kinds! I donate 5% of my profits from each Rover booking towards humane societies and animal rescue organizations. I’m currently a full-time college student, so the remainder of the money I make on Rover is set aside and used to afford care for my own cat. During the school year, I’m a full-time student at the University of Vermont and, when I’m not in classes or doing Rover visits, I’m often spending time with my own cat! I spend summers, and most other school breaks, at home with my family in IL. This summer will be my third year working part-time as an inclusion aid for children with disabilities and special needs in summer camps. My weekday mornings are spent there, but the rest of my schedule is more flexible, so I’m looking forward to doing more afternoon and evening Rover visits! I recognize that every animal is unique and has their own wants and needs, and it’s important to me to ensure that your pet is as comfortable, happy, and healthy as they can be while you’re away! I’m happy to follow any instructions you have to care for your pet and your home. If there are any particular precautions you want me to take, or if there’s anything else I can help out with (e.g. bringing in mail, putting out trash cans, etc.) while you’re away, just ask!
“Ryann is conscientious, thorough and friendly. Our Border Collie loves her! She takes her on lovely walks and gives me a thorough report afterwards. She was great even when it was pouring rain ! We'll be asking her back frequently!”
About: I’ve grown up and taken care of dogs ever since I was little. I would say I’m knowledgeable on dog training and have a lot of experience with all different types of dogs. I love to walk and pet pups so hopefully we can be good match!! I’m currently working part-time in the afternoon (3-6) so I have lots of free time to check in or walk your pet. I have owned Goldens my entire life so training a high-energy dog is something I’m experienced in. I’m all about creating a safe and enriching environment for dogs, so I’m open to adapting to your pets daily routine.
“Veronika came to the rescue on very short notice. She handled my very timid chihuahua mix without any difficulty. She arrived right on time, sent photos of each walk with my dog and demonstrated an understanding of my dog's needs with much warmth. I found her to be a trustworthy and capable. I would hire her again without hesitation.”
“I am so happy to be able to rely on the fact that James is extremely punctual. He is here every morning at the designated time. He has been patient with my small dog, who has a preference for women and has had to grow accustomed to a male dog walker. James has given him space and encouragement.”
About: Since the day I was born I’ve been surrounded by animals. Everything from chickens and ducks to cats and dogs to even reptiles!! I’ve always been trusted to watch the animals because I believe animals love me as much as I love them!! I currently attend online school so I am free 100% of the time to help. Let me know if I can help with your fur baby! I live in an apartment with a small back yard, but my courtyard is very grassy and open with plenty of room for your pup to run around. I have a cat named Haven and she’s fed twice a day. She is good with dogs but does take awhile to warm up to them
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and currently help care for a French Bulldog, so I’m used to daily walks, feeding, and just keeping them happy and comfortable. I really enjoy being around dogs and getting to know their personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and will treat your dog like my own while you’re away. I am home full time so my schedule is pretty flexible, I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on what you need. I also can accept last minute availability! I can work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, and play time. I always try to make pets feel comfortable and at home, whether I’m in your space or mine. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so they feel safe and relaxed. I’ll stick to your routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and anything specific your pet needs. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure they’re getting the care and attention they deserve.
About: Raised with dogs and trusted for over 4 years of pet sitting. Dependable, caring, and committed to providing attentive, safe, and responsible pet care services. Current home-from-college student looking for extra work with open availability during the week for dog walks, pop-ins, and house sitting anytime after 9am. Available weekends 10am–8pm for dog walks and pop-ins as needed. Just a heads up, I will be returning to school in August and no longer available for services :) I treat every home and pet with respect, following all instructions carefully. I maintain routines, give lots of attention, and ensure a clean, safe environment.
“John treats my dog like his own. I have a large dog, and she can be difficult to handle, but John is comfortable setting boundaries and managing her behavior. He is always friendly and arrives on time, and my dog is always happy and well exercised after her walks. He communicates well, and I would trust him with my dog any time.”
About: I’ve helped care for my own dog for ~6 years. I also often help look after my neighbors’ and friends’ pets. A couple years ago I worked at a vet clinic and was around dogs of all temperaments, ages, and sizes. I am home for the summer from college (until mid/late August) and I have lots of availability each day of the week. I am incredibly willing to work around your schedule! I have a large fenced back yard and an older, very friendly 60 pound Australian shepherd who loves to meet and play with other dogs!
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages for friends and family members, in addition to raising my own cat. I have experience caring for animals with health concerns and administering medications as directed. I understand the importance of maintaining feeding schedules, providing exercise and enrichment, monitoring for changes in behavior, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently taking a flexible, self-paced class so I have open availability to take care of pets as needed. I have open availability on weekdays and can do weekends as needed. I have a medium sized yard for the pets to get outdoor excercise. I also have a large basement where I can set up a crate, litter box, toys, etc
About: I love dogs and cats have been dealing with animals since I was 12 years old also did work in a perfect grooming salon for Petco! Im open to same day appointments and setting up future schedules if needed! I am available for early morning pick ups and drop offs before 8 and after 4:30-6 Depending on the animals daily fitness and eating routine I’d work to continue it as close to their daily lives that the owners have already established for them
About: Hello! I’m Ellie, and I would be thrilled to be your go-to pet sitter while away. I have a super sweet dog named Frankie, who’s not just my furry companion but also my best buddy. Frankie has a playful spirit and loves to run around and play at the dog park, but she also knows how to relax and enjoy some quality couch time, so I always aim to provide a good balance of play/enrichment time and resting. Our daily routine includes long walks where we explore the neighbourhood and visit the dog park every day, ensuring plenty of exercise and socialization. I love getting outside and enjoying the fresh air, and I can’t wait to share that experience with your pup. I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. This means I can give your dog the attention they need, whether it's playtime, walks, or just some gentle cuddles. My primary goal is to ensure your furry friend feels safe, secure and loved while they’re in my care. I believe that open communication is key, so you can expect regular updates and photos to keep you connected with your dog while you’re away. I’m excited to create a nurturing and fun environment for your dog. Let’s connect and see how I can help make your pet’s time with me enjoyable and stress-free! I work from home and care for my dog Frankie so I am home most of the time to care for your pup. The most I might be gone is a couple hours at a time to run errands and if I do have to go out I make sure your pup is well exercised, tired and ready for a nap. I live in a very spacious apartment within walking distance of multiple parks and walking trails. While in the home I can set up separate areas for your pet to make them feel secure and at home or let them have free rein of the apartment (whatever works best for your pet's needs). I take pride in giving my dog the best life possible and would extend that sentiment to any dog in my care. Throughout the day I offer tons of attention, treats and playtime and regular pictures and updates to give you peace of mind while you are away!.
About: Long term dog owner and cat lover, have taken care of my dogs since I was 12 years old. Have two cavapoo dogs one 7 and one 13, so I have experience with senior dogs. I only Rover when I have a fully open schedule, so I ensure that I will be able to provide full attention and care to your pet. I was often the one in my family to take care of our dogs during the summer, and I ensure that they have full attention and all needs are met including food, bathroom, entertainment etc.
“Morgan and John were lifesavers taking our chompy little puppy for a nice long walk to burn some energy in the middle of the day when we had to return back to work full time. We’ll definitely be using them again!”

Ana has always done an amazing job caring for my fur baby, Dakota. I’ve worked with her locally many times and was so excited to see her join Rover to continue growing her dog‑sitting career. Ana truly cares about the animals she works with and always takes the time to listen and understand what each pet needs. Dakota is not an easy dog to care for, between her cancer‑related medical needs and her reactive fear of other dogs and children, she can be complicated to leave in someone else’s care. Ana has always risen to these challenges and made us feel completely at ease trusting Dakota with her. This year, we went on a two‑week vacation to Italy, and Ana stayed in our home to care for Dakota the entire time. Not a single walk or medication was missed, and Dakota was loved and cared for as if she were Ana's own pet. I will always trust Ana with Dakota’s care and would confidently trust her with any pets we have in the future. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

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 .

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 Hinsdale. 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 Hinsdale.

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 Hinsdale. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
