About: I grew up with dogs of all different sizes and breeds along with the sweetest cats. I showered them all with love and affection as well as playing and walking the dogs. I am available all day and every day! I can take care of your little or big fur babies anytime and provide the attention and care needed! I have a fenced yard with four dogs that love to run around and play in. They love to chase each other around and are quite talkative to one another!
“Was very helpful accepting my request last minute. Came here for a meet and greet and was very curious about any potential trial issues my dog may have while out on walks. Was very good at communicating when she was coming and when she arrived and even saved me when I accidentally overlooked that she was booked for ongoing walks and a payment was submitted that should not have gone through. Highly recommended from this customer. Hard to find someone willing to take on the challenges of walking a large breed Cane Corso like mine.”
About: I have 15+ years of experience with dogs of every shape and size. Between caring for my own dogs, my family’s, and friend’s, I’ve come to be very familiar with their routines, needs, and behavior. My experience with applied behavior analysis lends tremendously to successful training techniques. I take pride in maintaining clean environments, administering meds, and being undeterred by big dogs. My experience as a nanny gives me a unique understanding of working in your most private space. Special instructions are always followed with care and love. I am currently starting my new job as a water safety instructor! My availability may change while I am in training, but I am still open for drop-ins and walks. Unfortunately, due to the needs of my own rescue cat, I am not available to provide overnight boarding services in my residence at this time.
About: I have 3 dogs and one cat of my own! I’ve had two of the dogs since they were puppies, and my cat since he was a kitten. I’ve also pet sit for my neighbors many times! My three dogs are all chihuahuas, but i’ve had experience with bigger dogs too. I am currently working part time, but I’m planning on going full time with pet sitting! Once summer is over I will be going to school but early in the morning, from around 8 to 12. So I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets ! I will not bring your pets to my own home, because my dogs are not very friendly to other pets. I will be able to go to your home and take care of your pet(s) there!

About: Hi! My name is Sam, and animals have been a huge part of my life and career for almost a decade. I have been working in the veterinary field for around 10 years, and most of my recent experience is a lead ER technician. Because of my experience in emergency medicine, I’m very comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, administering medications, and responding quickly if a pet ever needs medical attention. Before working in emergency medicine, I also owned and operated a mobile pet grooming business, so I’ve spent years handling dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and special needs. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care, I’m very comfortable working with them all. Currently I am not working and working on getting certified to start an IT career so my availability is very open. I’m a mom to two boys and married, so family and responsibility are a huge part of my life. Occasionally my family may come along on walks or visits, but they are very respectful of animals and understand the importance of safety and boundaries. My goal when caring for your pets is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. With my veterinary background, grooming experience, and genuine love for animals, you can feel confident your pets are in knowledgeable and caring hands. I just left the veterinary ER lead technician role to pursue IT, my schedule is very open with studying being my main day to day ans taking care of my two boys (5 and 14 years old). My care for pets is based off their personal needs. I like to take the time to get to know the pet to ensure they’re comfortable and happy.
About: I have worked in pet care for over 2 years now and have had the opportunity to work with many different pets. I do baths, dog walking, training, playtimes, and more, along with many snuggles and treats ! As of right now I work from 5pm-5am So I will have all day to spend time with your pets and give them undivided attention and treat them as I would my own. I like to go on walks and I have a fur baby to keep your pet company! I also provide lots of pictures and videos of your animals to let you know that they’re safe in my care :)
“Dezahrae was WONDERFUL! Between work long hours, kids, and life it’s hard to balance it all. Dezahrae was flexible, kind, and overall wonderful. I definitely will be using her again!!!”
About: I have been handling dogs for about 9 years now. I currently offer In-Home dog grooming where I bring the salon to the comfort of your home. I work for myself so my schedule can be pretty flexible. Most grooming appointments are scheduled between 10:30am to 5pm. I will accommodate walk requests as best as possible. If walk requests are after 7pm (after dark) I may have a Buddy along to accompany me during the walk for safety but I will always inform my client prior to accepting requests. I have a lot of senior doggos so I am very attentive and report anything out of the ordinary in regards to their behavior.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs (big and small) my whole life. All of my animals are trained by myself and my family (very well, if I do say so myself) and I also have experience caring for dogs ranging from 1 month to at least 15 years. I have experience with dogs of every size, behavior style, and training level and have proven apt in handling anything and everything when it comes to mine and other dogs. When caring for your dogs, I will provide them the benefits of a stress free environment, space to run and play, as well as structured and monitored socialization with my own animals (at both you and your dog's comfort, of course). I will provide your dogs with the comfort of their own living space with as little interruption to their daily routine as possible. I also provide constant contact as you so wish and will provide daily updates for you about your animals, as well as answering any questions you have about myself or my experience. I have also attended an animal care/first aid class and have ample knowledge to provide first aid to most animals. Hope you choose me to care for your pets! I am currently unemployed and so all my times is for your babies! I can adhere closely with their set schedules and work as much as necessary to not jar their daily routines.

The average cost of Dog Walking in La Junta is $11 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $19 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 La Junta. 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 La Junta 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 La Junta. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
