Emily & Timothy did a great job with our Daisy while we were away on vacaction! Dasiy was staying with my mom, and Emily & Timothy were flexibe, working with my mom for timing Daisy's walks. Daisy can be a stinker on walks, and Emily & Timothy were able to get her out for good, long walks, getting her the exercise she needed during our time away. Thank you Emily & Timothy, you were great!!

Erin was a life saver this week! With my husband out of town for a week and me with my hands full with a three year old and baby, getting out to walk our energetic and LOUD husky was going to be a challenge. Erin was always right on time and such a great communicator. I liked and trusted her immediately and Aurora Dog warmed up to her right away as well. She started waiting at the door for her in the morning. Thank you so much Erin!

Kristine does a great job with my dog. He can be stubborn or get scared on walks and want to go home. If that is the case she will stay and play with him in the backyard. But she also gets creative and communicates with me on strategies to get him to walk and it has worked. Overall great communication and very timely. Would recommend her to walk or care for your dog.

About: Growing up, I became the neighborhood pet sitter for all the dogs and cats on my block-- I loved it so much that I didn't want to give it up once I started teaching! During the school year, I can watch your pets if they are used to being left alone during the workday. During the summer, I am free to give your pets as much love and attention as they'll put up with! As a sitter, my biggest priorities are safety, routine, and communication. When I am house sitting, I try to follow your routine as closely as possible to try and make your pets feel a little more at ease, and I send lots of pictures to try and make YOU feel a little more at ease! I also love to spoil the pets I'm watching, so be ready for me to ask if your dog or cat is okay to have a pup cup anytime I'm picking up coffee :) As I said earlier, I am available in the summer to spend as much time as you would like with your pets. When I am house sitting, I treat it like I'm moving in for that time and will treat it as my home base so that I'm keeping your pets company, even if they're just interested in lying on the couch. I available during the school year (Late August- early June) if your pets are okay with being left alone for 8 hours. I know that sometimes pet parents worry about being too "high maintenance" with their pets' needs or quirks, but I promise that that is not a thing in my book! Whatever your pets' little habits and routines are, I will accommodate them as much as possible.

About: I've been an all-animal lover my whole life. I grew up with dogs, bunnies, birds, turtles, guinea pigs, and even had a snake. To me pets are family, and when I’m with yours, I’ll treat them like my own and make sure they stay safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently a fur mom to Miley, a high-energy Rottie mix who taught me how to handle big, dog-reactive dogs in many situations. I’m also a fur mom to Bubbles, my 10-year old little Holland Lop nugget. I've administered many kinds of meds over the years, trained pets, cared for recovering pets after surgery, and cared for seniors. Any size, any breed, or any kind of creature is just another one to love. (Except maybe a tarantula... I can't do spiders.) My schedule is flexible since I have the ability to work from home. When booking, we can always discuss your expectations for time spent in your home with your pets. As a baseline for house sitting, I guarantee 9 hours overnight, plus a minimum of 1 hour every 4-6 hours during the day and evening. I love caring for pets in your home or neighborhood for their comfort and safety. Being in their own environment helps pets relax and adjust more easily while getting to know me. I do have pets of my own, but they do not accompany me during any service. • I also believe communication is key. I ask every new client a few initial questions and require a meet-and-greet to make sure all parties are comfortable before the first service. Also, during your pet’s time with me, I’ll send 1–2 message updates with photos per day (depending on the service) so you can see how things are going and have peace of mind while you’re away.

Sy has been a lifesaver helping me with Lilly during the week!! She was super quick to respond to my initial request, which I was so grateful for because I needed services suddenly. And to top it all off, Lilly loves her so I feel like she’s in great hands whenever I’m gone! She goes above and beyond, even helping me with her medication when I asked. And she seems to really care about Lilly’s wellbeing, like she’s her own. Definitely recommend!!

Katie has been a dream to work with and our Danes love when she comes to visit. She’s timely, attentive, and dog savvy. I don’t always trust just anyone with our dogs, but absolutely do with Katie. Highly recommend and appreciate the help she’s provided to us consistently over the last year.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Inver Grove Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Inver Grove Heights on Rover is $22.2 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 5,432 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Inver Grove Heights. 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 Inver Grove Heights. 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 Inver Grove Heights.

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 Inver Grove Heights. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.
