About: I have taken care of large dogs since I was 11 and was raised to understand their needs. In addition to raising two of my dogs from birth, I have also been relied on by neighbors to care for their pets while away. I also have professional experience working at a doggie daycare and was trained to work with and care for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of free time. I am available any time throughout the day, any day of the week. Feel free to reach out to schedule your booking! I have experience working with dogs of all sizes and am able to walk, play with, and give attention to your pet. I can easily crate your pet if requested and will adhere to any and all feeding restrictions and schedules.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and truly love dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I currently have two rescue dogs of my own who are very much part of our family. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pets when you can't be there. I am dependable, responsible, and will treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I am happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, lots of attention, and photo updates so you can feel comfortable while you're away. I currently work from home most days, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pets with attention, playtime, potty breaks, and care throughout the day. I am also available for evening and weekend care. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine and will do my best to follow the schedule they are used to while you are away. I have a fully fenced yard and two large rescue dogs of my own who are indoor dogs and very much part of our family. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be my priority. I will follow your instructions for feeding, routines, medications, walks, and any special needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I will respect both your home and your pet's normal routine.

About: Hi! I’m Darian, a 24 year old pet care provider and proud owner of two high drive Dobermans. I have years of hands-on experience with many breeds, and I’m someone friends, family, and clients trust to care for their pets like my own. I offer drop-in visits, in home pet sitting, and transportation for vet appointments, grooming, and more. I also provide a basic puppy support package for new dog owners, and I’m happy to customize care to fit your pet’s unique needs—whether that’s extra enrichment, light grooming, or special routines. With a background in training for bite sports, dock diving, and basic obedience, I understand how to keep dogs engaged, happy, and balanced. Whether your pup is active, quirky, or just needs a dependable friend, I’m here to help. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, available from mid-morning through evening. I tailor my visits to fit your pet’s individual needs -- whether that’s playtime, obedience practice, or quiet attention, without overwhelming them. If you have questions about my availability or how we can set up drop-ins or sitting that’s just right for your pet, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to work with you to create a comfortable, stress free experience. I understand that having someone new in your home can feel odd, and that caution is completely normal! My top priority is your pet’s safety and well being. I take careful steps to create a secure environment before potty breaks, walks, or playtime, and I’m prepared to handle any situation calmly and responsibly. With experience handling a variety of dogs, including high-energy and sensitive pets, I know how to adapt to different needs safely. I’m always available to answer your questions or provide updates, so you never feel out of the loop. I’m committed to earning your trust through clear communication and thoughtful care tailored to your pet’s needs, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

After growing up with only dogs and small house pets (hamsters, crabs, fish, frogs, and lizards)In my adulthood, my husband and I have opened our home to several rescues through the six years we’ve been together. At our home we consider ourselves “last owners” animals come to us to live out the rest of their lives, comfortable and loved. We’ve been by the side of 6 rescue birds, a few kittens and one chameleon to watch them cross over the rainbow bridge, and complete their journey. Between Gage (my husband) and I we have 10 cats (willow, meadow, sushi, pumpkin, chai, jenny, lucifer, salem, peggy & naruto) 5 birds (blanca, bleezy, grim, puffer & mongo bongo - she’s a 46 year old scarlett macaw! - ) 1 dog, (chief) 1 chameleon (pascal) and 1 scalata tortoise (torchy) ! we are obviously big animal lovers!!

(if it’s too expensive DONT PANIC! we can communicate and i will really take whatever you’d like to pay. I understand vacations are very expensive and I don’t want you to have to choose between a fun tour or activity with you family vs having adequate care for your baby while you’re away. If you think i’m perfect for your home and baby, please let me know what you can pay and i will always work it out! I AM WILLING TO DRIVE AND TRAVEL TO YOU (OUT OF STATE) MY MILAGE IS SET TO 100 MILES LETS TALK!) My husband and I currently have 5 birds, a dog, and a seven kittens, we also are thinking about getting a bearded dragon and we currently have a scalata tortoise!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I also have hands-on experience caring for my own cat, so I understand the importance of providing individualized care, patience, and attention to each pet’s unique needs. Every animal deserves knowledgeable, compassionate care. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and respect I give my own animals. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and pet sitting is the perfect fit alongside my work as an independent artist. My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable, attentive care for dogs, cats, and even exotic pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own.

About: I've been a dog owner for more than 10 years. Through these years, I've loved learning about dog behavior and how I can be a better life coach to my dogs. Right now I have a very anxious 12 lb poodle mix who I enjoy taking out. I try to find ways to help with his anxiety and get him out of his shell. Feel free to contact me for a complimentary 15min meet and greet to see where our goals align. One of my top priorities is to take care of my own dog. We go on walks first thing in the morning. But overall, most of my time is spent working from home; therefore, I am available at your convenience For safety reasons, I won't be introducing my client's pets to other animals. Dog care will depend on the dog and how welcoming they are of a stranger into their home. Unless a dog is comfortable with me. I will most likely keep my distance, respect their space, and provide structure. I also do like to stay in communication with my clients with videos and photos

About: Hey hey! My love for animals runs deep. Growing up, my family always had animals. We had rabbits, dogs, cats, and horses. Professionally, I have taken care of dogs and cats since high school. As a tree hugger through and through, your fur babies will be loved, adored, and showered with tons of attention. I would love the opportunity to walk your fur babies, stay with them while you’re away, or simply check on them during the day. I know how important our fur babies are to us, and for this reason, I promise and guarantee to treat yours as if they are my own. I will provide pictures and videos of my time with your babies! Also, please note that I do NOT require crate training or anything of that nature. I want your fur baby’s time away from you to be as close to their normal routine as possible. While I have two puppies of my own (Wren and Quill), they have the most fantastic grandma who loves to watch and snuggle them while I housesit for you! :) I am in my final semester of graduate school, which means I have ample time to spend with your animals. I prefer to housesit instead of drop-ins. Typically, with housesitting, your pets are more comfortable! I am a graduate student and work part-time; therefore, I can fit your perfect fur babies into my schedule at any time. I have open availability and would love the chance to get some animal snuggles in. Safety is my top priority! I will carefully follow your instructions and will diligently ensure your baby is safe while in my care. This is a promise!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 761 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Itasca. 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 Itasca. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Itasca after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 , 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 .

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
