“Colleen is amazing! Her communication is top-notch, and she always keeps me updated with photos and activity details from the walks. Most importantly, she has an incredible connection with our dog, Annie, who absolutely adores her. It gives me total peace of mind knowing she is in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend Colleen!”

“My dog is not the easiest dog to walk at times. Lauren kept him safe from dog encounters and responsibly showed up to take him out. She updated me about every walk with great detail and honesty. She was available during Christmas and showed up at 7:30AM, 4:30 PM and 9PM (not an easy itinerary). I highly recommend Lauren.”

About: As a 31 year old who's owned dogs his entire life, I've learned dog behaviour in and out, while I don't consider myself a trainer, the breeds I've owned and work with include hounds, German Shepard/Mixes, Pitbulls, Huskies, etc, I can offer anything your pet may need. I work all holidays, and take short notice appointments. I want to create a bond with your pet, so they know me, my smell, sound, everything! Your pet will be family to me! My entire life I have owned high energy dogs, as a lover of nature I always learned towards dogs that could hike with me through the woods in Rain, Snow or sunshine, after doing it for years for my pups, I want to give other puppies and even senior dogs that feeling of freedom in nature! If your dog needs a companion, my German Shepard Rita can join! If your dog prefers solo hikes or hikes with their siblings that is okay as well! I treat all pets like my own children, same as yours!

About: I've taken care of my family dogs on my own, as well as dog sitting my friends dogs. I know how important it is for dogs to get out and go on walks and also be watched so they don't eat anything funny. I have a full time job but can come home at lunch to hangout and let them out! They would be alone for about 4 hours at a time. I have a fenced in yard and will spend lots of time hanging out with your dog. If I am boarding your dog I will do my best makev your dog feel safe and at home.

About: I've had both cats and dogs as family members for many years. Now I currently love my family and friends' pets as if they were my own. I am recently retired after working 30+ years for the same company. I'm a home body so I'm comfortable snuggling and spending playtime with your pets. I love the outdoors and enjoy talking walks. I usually watch my friends and family's pets in the comfort of their own homes. I often have their pets at my home as well but usually for short periods, though sometimes overnight. I usually initiate playtime and welcome snuggling.

About: Hello! I’m Allison, and I have an overwhelming love for animals! I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have plenty of experience dog-sitting for friends and family, caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from little Beagles to big German Shepherds. In addition to my personal experience, I have professional experience working in animal shelters, where I helped provide daily meals, maintain clean living spaces, and administer medication. I have experience with a wide range of canine temperaments, from more reactive or aggressive dogs who need extra patience and understanding to calm, senior dogs who benefit from a gentler approach and extra TLC. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I always strive to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how difficult it can be to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, so my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands! I’ll treat your pet with the same love, attention, and care I would give my own. I’m currently a full-time student and am looking for a flexible side job to help pay for college. Since I’m not currently working, I have flexibility in my schedule to dedicate time and attention to your furry friends. I’m responsible, attentive, and happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s individual needs and routine. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or if you’d like to know more about me. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐾 I’m currently a full-time student, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. Since I’m not currently working, I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and overnight care. I prioritize making sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, love, and care while sticking to their usual routines as closely as possible. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual needs and their owner’s schedule! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I treat every home with respect and care for each pet as if they were my own. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications if needed, and any special routines or behavioral needs. I have experience with dogs of all temperaments, from energetic and reactive dogs to calm senior dogs, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s personality and comfort level. I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment, plenty of attention, and regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your furry family member is in good hands!

About: Hello, pet families! I've grown up with dogs my entire life, and they have always been my best buddies! Animals have always held a special place in my heart. My family also had cats and guinea pigs growing up, and they were all such an important part of our lives. I'm now a proud dog mom to my mini Goldendoodle, Dunkin, who is almost 2 years old and truly my best friend! Having a puppy of my own has made me appreciate even more how much love, patience, and attention our furry family members deserve. I also have experience looking after family friends' pets whenever they need an extra helping hand. I love giving animals attention, keeping them happy, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family members and give them the same love and care I give my own! ❤️ I work full-time, but thankfully have a flexible work schedule that allows me plenty of time for pet sitting! I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, so I have great availability those days. I'm typically in the office Tuesday through Thursday, but have some flexibility with those days as well. I'm also available most evenings and have open availability on weekends! I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I love spending my free time with animals, so pet sitting is something I genuinely look forward to fitting into my week! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority! I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I would treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own pup, Dunkin. I always make sure pets are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment, while keeping a close eye on them and being mindful of their individual needs and routines. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, or anything else that helps your pet feel at home. I also believe communication is important, so I love keeping pet parents updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make sure your pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved every step of the way!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Livonia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Livonia is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $27 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 4,033 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Livonia. 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 Livonia. 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 Livonia 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 Livonia. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
