About: I have been caring for animals since elementary school. I watched cats and dogs for neighbors and friends of the family. As I got older, I started getting referrals for pets from around the community and cared for those animals too. The arch of my kindness and care is not limited to animals, as I also provide care for the elderly. I cared for both of my grandparents and my father until his passing. I currently provide care and other services to a 104 year-old young lady who is believed to be my community’s oldest living resident and yes, she still walks and does not use a wheelchair. I am self-employed and have a very flexible schedule. I can care for your pet any day of the week (unless I have another pet scheduled for that day) and at times convenient for most people. I am here to follow your instructions and schedule without deviation. Your fur baby will be feed exactly at the time(s) directed by you, same with any medication(s). For dogs, I will take them outside for walks and indoor/outdoor play as weather permits, and see that their water is always fresh with some treats and cuddles too. For cats, it is play and more play; plus fresh water and treats, then snuggling when we are done.

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and had dogs in my own home for 10+ years. I have had experience ranging from raising and training puppies to caring for senior dogs with special needs such as blindness and diabetes. I work remotely from my home and will make sure your pet has all the attention that they need. While I have your pet I will ensure they are only left alone briefly for necessary errands. I have a fenced backyard and one well mannered if energetic pup. Your dog will receive as much love and care as my own. From snuggles on the couch to long walks around the neighborhood and games of fetch in the back yard.

“Walker was very courteous and professional. Tommy seemed comfortable with her right away, even though they had just met. She was patient, attentive, and very understanding of all the instructions I provided for Tommy’s care. I felt confident leaving him in her hands and would definitely recommend her.”

About: My very first job was starting a dog walking business with my sister and best friend when I was 13! I would walk up to two dogs at a time, feed them their meals, spend time with them while their owners were away, and play with them! I now have two of my own dogs that I adore and love spending time with. Throughout the years, my love for dogs and animals has only grown! I have been completing Rover services since May of 2026, and have fallen in love with it as a full-time job! I am available Monday through Friday, and the times are very flexible, as well as weekends as needed. I am looking to see more dogs weekly, so reach out to see if the times works! At my house, we have a fenced in yard, so my dogs roam freely. While on walks, they use a harness and a leash. I am comfortable with putting on all harnesses and prefer to walk a dog with a leash, but if the dog is trained well enough to not need one, I am comfortable with that as well.

About: Since I was young I have always cared for not only my own personal pets but my family and friends pets whether they were dogs, cats, birds, fish, you name it. This include walking, feeding, bathing, and loving. Currently I have experience in a Vet clinic as a Veterinary Assistant so handling any type of medication or medical need is no stranger to me. I have also worked with a kitten and cat foundation that has given me experience in raising a litter of kittens and getting the most fulfilling job of bottle feeding new born kittens. I have also volunteered at a doggy spa day where I bathed greyhounds and made sure every pet looked their best. I am also attending school to get my Bachelors of Science in Animal Science along with my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine right after and I currently do research on horses at Michigan State University and have enjoyed that experience of working with these big beautiful animals. So learning and knowing what responsibilities it takes to care for horse as well working in a Vet clinic I value giving any pet the time, dedication, and love they deserve. Animals are my passion, I am consistently around animals whether they are small or large. As a student, I plan to fit my pet care schedule around any classes or school based events along with making sure your pet is well taken care of. So this meaning for dog walking and check-ins I will do morning and evening walks and check-ins to makesure your pet gets a good stroll on their favorite path or much needed time of love and play to burn off some energy. For dog sitting I will be their in the morning when your fur baby wakes up and wants their morning breakfast, sometimes during the day enjoying quiet time as I do homework or spend time playing with their favorite toy, and then tuck them into bed when they dream about their favorite people in the world. I will ensure to communicate with you on what my schedule looks like and ensure the best possible service for you and your animal. I value giving the best quality service and building a trusting relationship with you and your fur baby. Once I first step in your home I will treat you and your pet as family ensuring care and respect. This will be done by consistent communication with you as I am with your pet, whether its cute pics, letting you know when I have arrived and left for walks, and giving you any important information that may come up. I will also ensure that you and your animal feel safe and comfortable whether its in your home or out on a nature walk. Also, I will ensure that when I leave your home it will look better than new and your animal is the happiest in the world.

Shelly made sure to be very quick to respond and to keep us updated every step of the way. When it was too cold to go outside for a walk (single digits!) she switched it up and played indoors. I mis booked the dates and she was extremely understanding and flexible which was so appreciated. Thank you Shelly!

About: I have been around all types of dogs and cats since I was born. I take my 3 dogs on walks together almost everyday. I volunteer at the animal shelter in Lansing and Dearborn. I have been around veterinarians, so I know how to handle dogs and I notice behaviors that might mean they're sick or have an issue that can be addressed. Sometimes people are used to their dogs doing certain things that are actually irregular and should be treated. I work part time so I have plenty of time to walk dogs and stop in for feeding and play time multiple times a day! I've been around dogs and cats my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for them. I have two dogs that I walk together almost every day, and I volunteer at animal shelters, working with animals of all breeds and temperaments. Through my experience around veterinarians, I've learned to safely handle dogs and recognize behaviors or symptoms that may indicate a health issue, allowing me to identify concerns that owners may not always notice.

She was so understanding of my pup needing slow introductions. He is a pitbull but that did not phase her at all! Lauren came over and let him sniff her, let him do whatever he needed. He fell in love with her immediately and he loves their walks! I always needed someone to rely on but was nervous, not anymore!! She is my new go-to if I am ever busy and I never have to worry!! She is so sweet and understanding of everything, I recommend to everyone!! ♥️

FAQs for Dog Walking - Inkster

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Inkster 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 4,005 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Inkster. 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 Inkster. 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 Inkster.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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 Inkster. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
