“Felisha is an absolute GEM 💎 she took such great care of our baby boy Maverick while my Aunt was watching him for us! I believe Maverick even walked better for Felisha then he does for my husband and I 😂 My Aunt couldn’t say enough great things about Felisha and stated ANYONE in the area that needed some help with their pup 🐶 should use her! Thank you so much Felisha we will definitely use you again!”

About: Hi! I’m Brooke, a proud cat and dog mom with over 5 years of personal pet care experience, plus more than a year of professional dog sitting. I’ve personally trained and raised two German Shepherds — so I’m no stranger to handling energetic, intelligent, or challenging breeds, and I understand the importance of reading body language, managing behavior, and creating a safe, loving environment. I’m known for being reliable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, medication, or just companionship, I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. Until July 30th 2026, I will be in school Wednesday–Friday from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Pets in my care may have some alone time during those hours, but I always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and have everything they need before I leave. Outside of school hours, I’m fully available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnights! • Calm, patient handling, especially with nervous or excitable pets • Experience with basic training and reinforcement • Detailed updates if you want to hear how your fur baby is doing •Respectful, tidy care in your home
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for many years, and I’ve also helped care for my aunt’s dogs, who she groomed professionally. My patient and gentle nature allows me to connect with dogs of all personalities — from energetic pups to shy or nervous ones. I’m attentive to routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or basic training reinforcement. I follow instructions closely and am happy to help with commands, leash manners, or gentle encouragement for anxious dogs. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and plenty of love, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is an important part of my daily life, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need. I plan walks, visits, and playtime around your pet’s routine, and I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and enrichment activities. I’m available most days after 3 PM, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can adjust for regular visits or last-minute needs whenever possible, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I provide loving, attentive care in your pet’s own home, following your routines and instructions closely. I offer walks, playtime, enrichment, and medication if needed, making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
About: I have always known the love of having a pet. Whether that was hamsters, reptiles, cats, dogs, and even hermit crabs. I have found love for each individual species, including snakes! I have been training my previous dog since I was 15 and was able to teach her to sit, shake, and release. I currently have a senior cat who is prone to seizures and is partially blind and deaf. I have been caring for him for 6 years now and he is my everything. I am currently pursuing my masters degree and am interning as well so my schedule can be tight sometimes! I will communicate with you if there are any scheduling conflicts. I can shift around my schedule where needed so let's talk more about what you need and we can work through it together to make sure your pet gets the best care possible! I can care for your best friend in whatever is best suited their needs. For my cat, Peanut, he receives oral liquid medication 3x a day at strict times. For my roommates cat who is also a senior, Fig, she receives a pill medication that is taken orally. I have experience in giving medication to animals. If an animal needs any special care, I will pay close attention to the instructions to make sure they receive the best care possible.
About: Hi, I'm Bradley! By day, I'm a pilot, which means I naturally bring focus on safety, communication, and extreme reliability to everything I do. But when I'm on the ground, my real passion is hanging out with dogs. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and understand that every pet has their own unique personality. Whether your dog is high-energy and needs a long walk or a shy rescue who needs a patient, calm presence to feel safe, I tailor my care to exactly what they need. My goal is to give you total peace of mind while you're away. Because of my aviation background, I'm a stickler for routine, text updates, and keeping your pets safe and happy. I can't wait to meet your pup! I currently am on an extended break from work so I will be available almost all the time. I update my schedule frequently, so my availability is always accurate. Safety and providing an enjoyable experience are paramount for me. I understand every dog is different and like to provide a tailored experience for my clients. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. I treat every dog as if they were my own, which means double-checking doors, using secure leashes in all public or unfenced spaces, and strictly following any medical or dietary routines you have. I adapt entirely to your dog's comfort level.

About: I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have an animal in my life. From shepherds to terriers, I have experience with large, medium, and small dogs. I also have experience caring for cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve trained my own dogs, cared for foster puppies, and have experience handling pets with different needs and temperaments. I’m very open to feedback, learn quickly, and always strive to provide the best care possible. When you book with me, you can expect meaningful, attentive, and reliable care for your pet. Your fur baby will have my full attention, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Rain or shine, I will show up and give every pet the patience, attention, and care they deserve! Over the summer I am working fully from home. Which means I have an open schedule to care for your pets. I am open from morning to night. I can do daily visits, weekly visits, and more. When house sitting for your pets, I prioritize a respectful and responsible approach. I value clear boundaries in my own life, so I make it a point to treat your home and privacy with that same high level of integrity. I’m fully open to your specific rules and feedback, and I’ll keep you connected with consistent updates so you never have to wonder how things are going.
About: I love working with all animals from dogs and cats to lizards and parakeets! I have a very flexible schedule for the most part and would work on your time. My past experience was boarding with a Labrador, so big dogs are great for me. I also have done a couple drop ins for a chihuahua and loved him. I am great with all sizes of dogs (and cats). I have a golden doodle of my own and he is 110 pounds so walking and taking care of bigger dogs is no problem! I am going into a veterinary career and would love to be more hands on with all different types of animals. The more the merrier! I would love to watch or walk multiple animals at once! I have an open schedule to care for your furry friends. I would love to take your dogs on an early morning or afternoon walk. I am available in the evenings as well for dinner time or after dinner walks! I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel right at home! I offer a friendly and safe environment where they can relax, play, and get lots of love and attention while you’re away
“We’ve had such a great experience with Anna! She’s taken care of our dog multiple times now, and each time she’s been incredibly reliable, communicative, and an absolute joy to work with. Our dog clearly loves her, and we always feel confident knowing he’s in good hands. Most recently, she reached out ahead of time to check in about the weather—specifically the rain and poor air quality—and offered to do a quick bathroom break with indoor playtime instead of a full walk. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness and flexibility, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. Highly recommend!”


About: I have taken care of lots of pets growing up. My parents dog is in her senior years so getting a lot of practice with that as well. I love animals but my apartment doesn’t allow me to have a pet, I miss having one around. I work a hybrid position so my schedule can be more flexible on some days! I am also open most nights after the work day and on weekends! I live in an apartment so my home is not the best for a pet at the moment, but I am very respectful in someone else’s space and prefer a clean environment so I will always pick up after myself & your pet.

About: I have been pet sitting for over five years and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’ve also cared for cats, including frequently watching my sisters cat, so I am comfortable with feline friends as well! I love being around animals and treat every pet as it’s my own. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide reliable care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention to make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routines and can adjust my schedule as needed to meet their individual needs. Whether it’s daily visits, overnight stays, or weekend care, I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care and treating every pet like family. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routines and providing plenty of love and attention. I’ll follow all feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, provide walks and playtime, clean up after pets, and make sure they always have fresh water and a safe environment. I understand that being away from their owners can be stressful, so I strive to create a calm, familiar experience and treat every pet with the same care and affection I would give my own. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I have been taking care of dogs all my life. I grew up with two and currently have a Husky and Terrier. On the days I am in the office (Typically M-W) I will only be available for drop ins/walks after 2:30 pm and early mornings. I do ask that if you need me M-W that times are flexible, I cannot always do hard set times. When I am WFH, I am available all day. Friends and family over the years have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, stop in and check on them for a simple belly scratch and potty break, all the way to staying the night to give them piece of mind while they're gone. I currently work full time. M-W I am able to stop into clients homes after I get off work, after 3. Thursday and Friday I work from home so besides meetings, I am able to drop in at any time of the day. Saturdays and Sundays I am pretty flexible as well :) Each client is different but I will learn what is best for their pet when I meet them. I won't crate their pet unless asked. Going outside with pets when they're out doing their business, and keeping them on a leash to keep them safe is my standard for caring for anyones pet. The parents know best and I'd follow their rules.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a little girl. I currently don’t have any pets of my own and also have a lot of extra time on my hands, which makes me a perfect candidate for your next pet sitter! I’m currently between jobs so I have plenty of time for walks, drop ins, belly rubs, scratches, playtime, feedings, and can even board your animal at my house if needed! I have a large fenced in yard for any animals requiring boarding. I keep my eyes on the animals at all times while outside to make sure they’re safe, but can easily crate your dog if preferred. I am equipped for drop in visits or longer extended visits too. I currently have no pets of my own in my house.
About: My family always had a dog, and when I moved out on my own, the first thing I did was get my own! I now have a chihuahua/papillon rescue named Jorah Borkmont, who loves to play with others. I make my own hours out of the home, so I will only be out of my home for a few hours per day, and I can return when necessary (we have a dog camera set up). My husband works at home most days, so he will also be here to care for your dog. We live in a townhouse with an unfenced yard, but do have tie-outs and plush grass to relax and potty on. There are safe sidewalks and a new neighborhood in the building process for long walks twice per day.
About: I’ve taken care of family pets and my neighbors pets since I was 16. I’ve been a pet parent myself for over 10 years now. I know how important your pets safety/happiness/and comfort is. I take watching your pet extremely serious, my philosophy with Rover is to treat your pet(s) like I do my own. I work a low pressure job from home so I’m home 24/7. This means I’m able to be around your pet and give them all my attention everyday. Most importantly that gives me the freedom to focus on the well being and comfort of your pet. About my home: - very spacious ranch style home. - no stairs, plenty of room for your pet to run around. • VERY LARGE fenced in yard. - I allow my dog Leo to spend as much time as he wants outside. Sun bathing and fetch are his favorite. •I live in a large safe neighborhood. -No major roads and safe environment. Walks are a must! I will treat your pet like they’re my own.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Independence Township on Rover is $16.65 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 3,585 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Independence Township. 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 Independence Township. 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 Independence Township.

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 Independence Township. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
