“Dina is THE best!!! It was so nice knowing that Chance would be taken care of and loved on. I love the sweet photos of them together. Great communication and overall a lovely human being ❤️ so glad I found her”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life growing up with 3 dogs myself. I love taking them on long walks and taking care of their every need. I currently have a lot of free time while I wait for my next schooling to start for my career so I’m very flexible throughout any day of the week When taking care in your home in I will follow every detail and instruction precisely and make sure your pet gets the care it needs.
“Our pup is nervous when first meeting new folx, but Georgia’s pup Wilma helped with that! Quickly, Jamie fell in love with Wilma and he LOVES his walks or playtime with Georgia, and has even gotten to meet other dogs (and okay), with their help. These walks are making our guy braver and friendlier, in general, for which we are grateful!”
About: Hi there! I’m Charlotte, and I have experience compassionately caring for animals for 14 years. I discovered my love for animals when I was a little kid when I walked my neighborhood dogs on a regular basis. Since then, I’ve walked & pet- sat many dogs, fostered animals, and grown up with my own cats and dogs. I’m certified in dog CPR and take your pet’s safety and well-being seriously. I am patient with pups who may find meeting other dogs/ adults/ children, etc., in unfamiliar territory anxiety-provoking. I will watch out for any anxious body language during our walk so that I can offer your dog calm and reassuring support to ensure they are safe and confident in our time spent together. I value clear, open communication and make it a point to always stay responsive to pet parents—I know how important peace of mind is when someone else is caring for your dog. I love to hike and be outdoors and am always looking for a fur-companion to join me. I look forward to giving your dog lots of well-deserved love and exercise! I am currently an online college student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to play outside with your pup and get some fresh air! I have two cats, so I can only come to your home to care for your animals. I am currently unable to care for pets in my home. I am only providing dog walking services.
About: I’ve been surrounded by furry family my whole life! I take their care very seriously. I have 2 furry babies of my own that love to meet new doggy friends. I can’t wait to meet you and your baby! I’m currently working part time as a nanny and have a lot of free time to spend with your pet! I’m open to special needs and specific care routines 😊 My dogs are my babies and I take so much care in making sure they are treated like it. I would love to treat yours the same!
About: I have grown up around dogs, specifically seniors who are on medication or are insulin dependant. I have experience with training as well, having trained my own service dog who went to college with me. I also have raised rabbits and guinea pigs for around 8 years and have shown them acrossed the country. At the moment I'm on break from college, I have a lot of avaliable time. I'm willing to work with you and make sure your pet gets all the attention they deserve! My own dog and I go for several walks a day and we play a in the lake. I have a long haired GSD so he gets groomed daily and loves to sleep in his bed! I plan to provide similar enrichment for your animals such as mind games on rainy days and lots of walks when it's nice outside.
About: I have helped care for cats and dogs since I was a child and am comfortable catering to their unique needs. I am a former owner of a highly anxious, reactive dog and would like to use my skills ensuring that your pet is comfortable while you are away. I understand that some pets have challenging personality quirks that require patience, diligence, and care. I specialize in caring for dogs with anxiety, fear of strangers, aggression, and reactivity. I have a job that keeps me busy Wed-Fri 9-5, but am pretty flexible outside of those times to care for your pets. Note: I have scent sensitivities to some artificial fragrances, smoke, and other household products so may decline housesitting stays if those are prominent. I understand that each animal has their own unique needs and personalities. I stay very attentive to the needs of animals and can commit my full attention to making your pup as comfortable as possible. I am very tidy and pride myself in leaving your home as clean as you left it. I appreciate clear instructions about staying in and caring for your home while I'm housesitting.
About: I can't remember a moment in my life when I haven't been surrounded by animals, I grew up in a neighborhood full of dogs and my household was always full of cats. I wasn't a stranger to keeping the peace between the two. I now own both a dog and a cat, they definitely keep me busy! I am used to walking/ running with larger dogs so keeping up and gaining control of them will never be an issue, the pros of being a student athlete! My favorite part of day is coming home and seeing my pets! I'm more available in the early morning, evening or on weekend. I try my best to work with your schedule so this runs as smooth as possible without interference or interrupting your daily life and business! I try my best to spend time with my animals when I can, though my cat tends to ignore me, he still gets all the pets and cuddles he deserves!
About: I always loved having pets growing up. I grew up in the country so we had a lot of space for animals to be able to run around and be outside. Dogs, cats, birds...practically every creature you can imagine. Currently I have a cat of my own, and a friend’s dog who I watch fairly regularly. It works out well because I’m a very active person who likes to get outside as much as possible—hiking when the weather permits and bringing him along with me. This is in part due to my ever-changing, flexible schedule. I have a few set shifts during the week, but for the most part I make my own hours and I have time to be available pretty much whenever I am needed!
About: I am loving, honest, and willing to go above and beyond for your animal. I can take care of medication needs, training, potty training, and more. I have CPR training and can provide comfort for the anxious friends too! I am disabled, but have 100% commitment and free time to help your fur baby out. My schedule is open and readily available. I can also provide last minute services. I treat every animal with respect and love, mine or not. They deserve the best care regardless of breed, size, or condition. Each animal gets the same one on one care.
About: I am a huge animal lover with professional experience as a dog walker/sitter. Right now my schedule is pretty flexible. Ideally, I would like to find a few dogs that would like to be walked throughout the week or checked on. I have a 10 + years experience dog sitting short/long term. I'm able to provide great references for the pets I've cared for in the past! I am energetic, fun, and easy to get along with. I like to make the most out of our time together! I like to be outdoors as much as possible. If your dog is comfortable, I would love to take your dog to events, the dog park, and short hikes. Your dog will love the experience I will provide! Dogs usually immediately like me and feel comfortable around me. Dogs of all ages and sizes welcome! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your fue babies! I am currently working part-time. I have plenty of time, as well as a flexible schedule, to attend to your pet with my undivided attention. I pride myself on treating clients pets the same as my own, with lots of love and affection! I am respectful of my clients homes, as well as their desired schedules.

We are so grateful to have found John! He brings our pup for walks and to the dog park five days a week. He is reliable, professional, and a good communicator. Our pup looks forward to her time with John everyday, we find him a pleasure to work with, and we trust him 100% with our dog's care.
Claudia is a gem! I was a little nervous having someone I don’t know come to the house to walk/care for my dog and pup. She came the day before for a meet and greet and she completely put me at ease. She is a natural with dogs, is professional, and so kind. When we were gone she sent us photos of them and let us know via text how it went. I will definitely hire her in the future! Thank you Claudia.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Lansing is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $24 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 317 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lansing. 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 Lansing. 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 Lansing 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 Lansing. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
