“Kimberly was amazing with our crazy dog! We just moved and he was a bit anxious, but he loved her! She even offered to sew up one of the things he tore up in his kennel! She is so sweet and kept me informed on how my crazy little boy was doing while I was at work! I will definitely book her again!”

About: I grew up taking care of and loving dogs and cats alike. I have always been passionate about my love for furry friends. I’ve spent time in the past volunteering at an animal shelter as well as cat/dog sitting for family members for extended periods of time. I adopted my very own beloved cat in 2020. I have experience with kittens, puppies, and caring for senior dogs. I would love to expand my love for animals to helping others with care for their precious furry family members. I am currently doing some independent contractor work and have a very flexible and open schedule. I am available for care most hours of weekdays and most weekends as well. I am very patient and understanding of each pet’s individual needs and personality and am more than willing to accommodate any needs. I understand firsthand just how important our pets are to us and will go out of my way to give my clients peace of mind and trust in my ability to care for their beloved pets. I am careful to read body language of each individual animal to gain their trust over time - once I do it’s such a rewarding feeling.

About: I have helped look after other peoples pets since I was younger. I have a genuine love for all animals and enjoy looking after them. I am currently a student and coach.

About: I’ve taken care of our own, family and friends dogs since I was a kid. I previously worked with a dog walking company in college. I currently have my own, a 3-year-old Cavapoo named Berlioz who I adore. I look forward to hopefully meeting your furry friend! My schedule is pretty flexible right now. I am working part-time, so I can be available whenever needed. I prefer weekdays, but am willing to do weekends. Timing is flexible as well :) I have a fenced-in yard, and two dogs at the house. They are both under 20 pounds, but friendly. I can also keep dogs separated if needed.

About: Your pet will be treated like family with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and personalized care while you're away. I provide safe, attentive, and reliable care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. Pet care fits very well into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and work in the gig economy. That allows me to plan my day around the pets I'm caring for, whether that means walks, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, or giving them extra attention and companionship. I enjoy spending time with animals, and I make it a priority to provide reliable, consistent care while keeping owners updated along the way. Because I'll be caring for pets in their own home, my priority is keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routine. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special care they need. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while respecting your home and keeping everything clean and secure. I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I have been a pet owner my entire life and I love to meet new animals! My home currently has 2 corgis I raised from puppies and a senior cat. I would love to meet your furry friends and be a warm, comforting presence for them during their day. I currently work full-time from home with a flexible schedule, so daytime visits can be arranged. I have wider availability on evenings and weekends, which is typically my preference. I have a lot of patience and will work hard to build a bond of trust with your pet so they will feel more secure and comfortable with a stranger in their home. I will do my best to be respectful of your home and your personal space so everyone can be comfortable and have the best experience possible.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who loves meeting new dogs and cats and helping them feel comfortable while their number-one person is away 🐾 I have two dogs of my own, including one who is high-strung and requires daily medication, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets who need a little extra patience, attention, or special care. I also have experience with puppies, seniors, medications, special needs, leash-reactive dogs, and dogs who aren’t comfortable around other dogs. I work remotely, which gives me flexibility in my schedule and allows me to be available for walks and drop-in visits. I also have a fenced yard and a family with 3 kids and 2 dogs, so I’m very accustomed to the fun, sometimes chaotic, and always rewarding world of pets! Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. Whether that means getting some energy out on a walk, having a little playtime, getting medications, or simply having someone there to give them attention and reassurance. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and give them the same patience, care, and attention I’d want for my own pets. 🐾 I am currently working full time remote. I am home and have a flexible schedule so I can visit your pet as needed! I can work around your schedule. I will go outside to play and spend time with your dog. I can monitor their play time in the back yard and make it fun. I can crate your dog before I leave if needed. I can take your dog on a walk if desired.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Kaneville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 2,870 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Kaneville. 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 Kaneville. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Kaneville 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 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 Kaneville. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 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 Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
