“Leah is the best! She goes above and beyond for scooby and genuinely can tell she loves animals. She takes him on great walks and adores her from all the photos I see! 💖”
“Maricela P. was just amazing with our Winston! He can be a handful at times just because he gets very excited to meet new people but Maricela handled him with the same care and affection as we do. She was the best with Winston and we are very grateful for finding her!”
“Rena helped me out last minute when I needed a walker after a family emergency. She was quickly responsive and able to pick up the shift and I couldn’t have been more grateful!”
About: I've been dog walking since I was very little around age 9, so for 15 years now. I've had 3 dogs in the past and lots of family members dogs I've looked after and cared for. Currently I help out with my neighboring dogs, walks, eat, potty time, etc playing catch. Dogs need to go outside, get some sunshine! Hi, I am very flexible with my current schedule. I am working part time while I’m in school at Harper college! My work schedule is m-f 7-9, and 3-6! I do have availability for overnight stays + dog walks in between or after hours. Weekend availability as well! I will keep your dog company, make sure he's completed every checklist/medicine/potty time/ outdoor time/ even nap time, and lots of pets, and a treat of course! I will ensure to follow your dog's diet, household rules. No exceptions, and with respect to household items.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was little and grew up caring for family dogs long before having my own. Being around different breeds, personalities, and energy levels has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to make dogs feel safe and comfortable. Now I care for my own dog, Bruce, who’s taught me even more about trust, consistency, and understanding dog behavior. I’ve spent a lot of time working on training, recall, leash manners, and reinforcing good routines with him, which has made me even more attentive and confident around dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, leash handling, and making sure dogs feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. I also understand how important reliability and communication are, so I’m always happy to provide updates and photos along the way. Spending time with dogs has never felt like a job to me — it’s something I’ve genuinely loved my whole life. I recently graduated from college and currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to pet care throughout the week. Because I’m doing this full-time, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, so I love being able to give pets the time, attention, playtime, and companionship they need instead of rushing through visits. I’m also reliable with communication and happy to provide updates and photos so owners always feel comfortable and informed while they’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. I take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while in my care. I’m attentive during walks, careful with leash handling, and experienced around dogs with different personalities and energy levels. Working with my own dog, Bruce, has also given me experience reinforcing leash manners, recall, and consistent routines, which has helped me become patient, observant, and confident around dogs. I keep a clean, calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, potty breaks, and comfortable places to rest. I also understand how important communication is when trusting someone with your pet, so I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and at ease while they’re away.
“Jazalyn walks our 3 dogs on a weekly basis. We have a very old dog with some mobility issues that needs medication and a puppy so it is complicated, a lot of work and we really have to feel confident and be able to trust someone. Jazalyn does a wonderful job and we feel very lucky to have found her.”
“Deepthi was absolutely wonderful with my fur baby. She sent me frequent updates and pictures. My dog warmed to her very quickly. I would use Deepthi again as well as recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She was truly great.”
About: I grew up around many dogs. My parents LOVE English Bulldogs and we always had 2-3 in our home whether we were fostering or they were ours. A few years ago we found a cat in the woods and decided to add to the family! After moving out, I have decided to rescue two cats of my own and they have been such a blessing! I also watch my friends dogs and cats from time to time. I am currently studying to be a personal trainer and work at a gym opening a women’s fitness program. My schedule is pretty open currently as I am studying for my personal trainers certificate! I am also a bodybuilder so my life really revolves around the gym! My schedule is currently very flexible. I currently have two cats, and I play with them often. They have many toys and cat trees. I would consider myself very playful. I also love to walk dogs! My bulldogs at home love walks 1-2 times a day which I have been able to help out with when there. I hope to offer similar services!
“Thank you for walking amber again. She is always so excited to walk with someone other than me and she loves it when you take her to the park. Hope you continue to enjoy Amber”
About: I have experience working with all types of dogs in several settings. I have been trusted as a dog walker for breeds of many sizes and temperaments and pet sitter for both daily and overnight stays for dogs of all ages. I have loved it all! I am currently a full time college student and part-time volunteer, which means my availability is primarily dictated by my class schedule. During school months, I am most available in the afternoons and evenings, but over breaks I am much more free! I currently live in a dorm and am therefore unable to bring your pet into my living space, but am willing to use my car to transport your dog(s)!

“Jessica did an amazing job walking my pitbull! She was punctual, professional, and clearly experienced with handling dogs. My pup came back happy and well-exercised. She was also very communicative, giving me updates during the walk, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Collette has been so good with my pups! So glad that I found her. She is very detail oriented and accommodating. Collette keeps me updated on everything. Thank you again Collette.”
About: My family and I love dogs. We also love cats, but unfortunately I’m allergic to them. We’ve raised three dogs over the years and currently have a 4-year-old Golden Retriever named Jax. I pretty much work from home and have a 4 year old Golden Retreiver named Jax so our routine is already made for a dog. I have a fenced in back yard. Your dog will have a playmate in Jax. I enjoy going out and playing fetch with Jax although he's not much of a fetch guy. He enjoys me faking like I'm going to chase him and then he gets the zoomies and runs around the yard like a crazy boy.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hoffman Estates
Sana has been fantastic taking care of my dog Rocky. He was sick the first day she started working for us and she communicated quickly, alerting me to what was going on, and followed up on his wellbeing. Fortunately, he's recovered, and Sana continues to care for him. I really appreciate her loving care for my fur baby.
Kace did a great job as our dog walker. She communicated well throughout and followed all instructions exactly as given. She handled both of my dogs with no issues, including my larger pitbull, which I really appreciated. She also made sure they were fed, had fresh water, and were well taken care of. Everything went smoothly and I felt confident leaving them in her care. I would definitely recommend Kace for future walks.
Jackie is absolutely amazing! I was extremely nervous about using/trusting rover since it was my first time using any kind of dog walking app. We did a meet and greet and she was fantastic with my two elderly boys. She was extremely gentle and let them take their time to feel her out. She sent pics and a really detailed note when taking them for their walk, which made my day! She really eased my anxiety. Overall, a great person. So happy I found her!!
We had a wonderful experience with Alina. She’s professional, thorough and handled our dog Nitchky’s routine perfectly. We really appreciate the detailed report cards after each visit. She genuinely cares about the pets she’s watching. We will definitely be using her services again and highly recommend.
Arsh was great with Zaza! I could tell as soon as he walked in that he was kind and caring. Zaza took to him immediately. Because I live in a neighborhood with no sidewalks, so that dogs have to be walked on the street, I had a fairly long list of "rules" to follow in order to keep Zaza safe from vehicles (and actually having to think through these motivated me to up my own game). Also because of having to walk in the street, I asked him to wear several forms of LED lighting after dark. He immediately understood and each time he walked her, he made sure that all of these precautions were followed. He was on time for every walk and always very congenial. I absolutely would recommend Arsh as a dog walker.
Thank you so much for your flexibility & accommodating my last minute request before my trip! I truly felt no worries while you were walking them, and knew each day they would get their exercise and go to the bathroom on their walks which gave me such relief. Wonderful to work with, will absolutely book again in the future with Oriana!! She is the best and I could tell my dogs loved her and felt comfortable with her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Hoffman Estates on Rover is $22.2 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 .

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 Hoffman Estates. 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 Hoffman Estates.

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 Hoffman Estates. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
