“Susan was a BLESSING for me and my dog when we needed a last minute check-in. She was so incredibly thorough and took great care to make sure she fit our routine and connected with Birdy. I recommend Susan to absolutely anyone who’s looking for competent care, a bubbly personality, and patience with an energetic and home-defending fuzz butt!!! We loved her!”
“Always on time, even when it was pouring rain! Very responsive to text! Super grateful for his flexibility and understanding when my flights got changed at the last minute!”
“Tabitha's walks saved my pup from turning morose & depressed while I'm recovering from an injury. Haiku is cheerily anticipating her arrival as something to look forward to ... I especially appreciate her conscientiousness, concerns & flexibility during the current heat-wave, not to exhaust & stress the dog's welfare. Thanks, I'm truly grateful for this match :-)”
“Brent continues to be absolutely amazing. He’s reliable, trustworthy and my dog absolutely loves him. Always a pleasure to work with and he takes such stress away from me when I’m traveling. Highly recommend.”

“Priscilla has been watching Jake for almost a month now and she is great. Jake adores her, he loves walking and playing with her, and she takes great care of him. Priscilla communicates very well with me before and after she walks Jake, and she sends several pictures and video. She also asks a lot of questions about any special care or needs Jake might need. I can tell she really cares about Jake, and animals in general, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker/sitter”
“Natasha is a dog whisperer! She’s fantastic with Keiko. I’ve been working with her for months now and she’s very reliable.

I’ve recommended Natasha to a few friends already and will continue to recommend her to anyone needing a reliable dog walker!”
About: I’ve been working with animals all my life! I’ve worked in animal shelters and pet stores all around, and I’ve always had pets of my own. First thing I do every morning is walk, and feed the dogs. I make sure they’ve peed, pooped, and eaten breakfast, a walk midday, dinner and a walk afterwards. I work about 2 hour shifts very close to home so I won’t be gone for too long I will take pay close attention to your pets and carefully follow the instructions given to me to ensure their safety and happiness while you’re gone
About: I have grown up with dogs and currently help take care of my family’s Corgi and German Shepherd mutt. I love dogs of all sizes and can’t wait to help take care of yours I will be able to take care of animals in the morning and evenings. I am not able to get away from work for mid day care. I will go outside with the dogs on walks and in their yards making sure they are properly watched and safe. I always make sure the animal is comfortable in their environment.

Katherine is incredibly sweet, kind, and dependable. She was able to meet my dog and take her for a walk on very short notice, which I greatly appreciated. She arrived on time, asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s care, and carefully followed all instructions. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she works with. We are very happy to have her as our regular sitter and highly recommend her!
Nia is so kind and loving with my dog. She's very patient with my dog's reactivity and helps her to be calm. She's even gotten her to walk in the rain, and my dog HATES the rain and will often refuse to go. She's good about following directions for food and treats and checks in if she has any concerns. Thanks Nia!
Kaitlin arrived on time, took our dog out in this frosty weather and managed to get Bentley moving despite the snow and ice. She is very friendly, responsible and conscientious- I felt comfortable when I first met her and I’m very happy with the quality of her work.
Menkaure was very kind, respectful, and punctual. He has a very calming personality that jives well with my rambunctious dogs. He took my two large Huskies for 4 walks in the past week and he did an amazing job. He followed all instructions and the dogs loved him.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Ilchester 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 12,621 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ilchester. 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 Ilchester. 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 Ilchester.

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 Ilchester. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
