About: I have lived with pets my entire life! I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as cats, too. I am a substitute teacher and currently working on my bachelors degree at an online school, so I have a very flexible schedule throughout the week. I care for pets in a client’s home by following their usual routines to help them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime, and have a clean environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, respect their home, and provide updates and pictures.

“Absolutely amazing! Katherine not only booked on short notice (I was freaking out because our normal walker had to cancel last minute!) She was personable, went above and beyond and most importantly to me, Cookie loved her! It’s always scary leaving our pets home for trips etc. Katherine will put you at ease. Thanks again!!!”

About: I have experience taking care of my own personal cat and some experience with dogs as I had a dog from ages 10-20. I love both dogs and cats. Message me for availability as it changes every 3 weeks. I work full time but they are 12 hour shifts 3 days a week and rotate. I am able to do drop in visits/walks. I would treat the animals like they are my own. Animals give me a great deal of joy. I love learning new information about animals

About: Hello there! After recently saying goodbye to our beloved senior Chihuahua, Moe, our home feels far too quiet without any furry friends. Starting this new chapter in pet care is very exciting, and I'm looking forward to giving your pet a safe and fun place to stay. I am the primary sitter but will be assisted by my girlfriend Sam who lives with me. Your dog will benefit from a multi-person home with plenty of attention and companionship. We have no pets or children so your furry friend will be the king or queen of the house! Whether your pet needs a quiet spot to lounge or energetic play sessions and walks, I am flexible to their personality. I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes for family & friends over the years. I pride myself in being attentive to your pet along with flexible and easy to work with. My goal is to make your pet feel completely at home while allowing you to relax during your travels! I am happy to provide as many updates you would like. My longtime girlfriend and I both work from home everyday! We have plenty of time to care for your pet. We can accommodate your pets schedule however needed. Our home is free roaming and pet friendly. Doggies are welcome in bed or on the couch if they desire. We also have a very large backyard and enjoy walks if that is your pets preference.

“Heather is amazing! My pup was really hesitant about interacting with someone he didn’t know and Heather was so patient and gentle with him. Fast forward to two weeks later and he is excited to see her, does tricks for her and gives her kisses! Thank you, Heather, for the incredible care of our little man!”

About: I have two daughters who love dogs. They will play with them all day and give them all the attention they need. We have done dog-sitting from drop-in visits to dog boarding and daycare. We enjoy getting the feel of having a dog so our favorite is dog boarding. Our family has a pretty open schedule, we do not own any pets so there will be no worry about endangering your little pup. I have a very large yard and many close parks. I have cared for dog breeds such as an Australian shepherd dog, Black Labrador, Mini Goldendoodle, and Shih Tzu. So, any dog breed big or little, young or old will be well- cared for in this household. The dog/s would be cared for by my two daughters, one age 17 and the other age 20 and by me. I also live with my husband and my oldest son at age 21. If your dog loves kids, our family will be well-suited for you. My husband and I also work from home, so anytime daycare is needed our schedule is open! We work from home. Sonwe are available all day with flexible schedules. We are open to all dogs. We have had fosters and dogs that require medicine. We have a fenced yard and we interact with them all day. We both work from home and my teenage children help after school and on home college visits.

About: As a long time dog owner, I can care for dogs of all different ages-or just visit with them for a bit! I am experienced with my own pets and am sure I can care for yours in the same way. I’m currently in a hybrid setting at my job so I work from home Monday and Friday and am flexible throughout any point of the day at that time. Tuesday-Thursday I get home at 6:30 or earlier so I can take your dog on a little afternoon stroll as well. With or without toys I can be sure to find a way to entertain your pet! Or we can take it easy and just provide some company and plenty of pats and snuggles for a drop in visit!

About: Hi, my name is Megan and I'm a huge dog-lover! I actually just resigned from my full-time position, so I will have pretty open availability for a while. I don't have any professional dog-sitting experience, but I am very caring and love dogs. I am also very reliable and have my own vehicle. I have volunteered a lot of hours at Animal Welfare as well, where I took care of both well and sick animals (mainly dogs). I tend to be the go-to for family and friends who need someone to watch their dogs, because they know how well I treat their animals and how much I enjoy it! Let me take your pup off your hands :)

Hayley was totally awesome!!! I would highly recommend her. We have 4 - yes 4 dogs - and she did an outstanding job. She was fantastic at our meet and greet any did a great job getting to know our “quirky” dog to ensure the comfort level for both of them. She followed instructions perfectly and communicated if there were any questions. But most importantly her truly kind spirit and loving nature is evident right a way. Our dogs loved her and so did we! You can tell that this job starts from her heart. She was beyond wonderful!!!

I highly recommend this dog walker! Jacob is reliable, punctual, and clearly have a genuine love for animals. My dog warmed up to him almost immediately, and I feel at ease knowing my pet is in caring and capable hands. He provides regular updates, including photos and notes about each walk, which I really appreciate. It's clear Jacob pay attention to my dog's needs, energy level, and safety. Overall, an excellent service that has made my daily routine much less stressful.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lockport

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Lockport is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 6,799 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lockport. 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 Lockport. 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 Lockport 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 Lockport. On Rover:

  • 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
