“Shana continues to be excellent with our elder dog Luna who requires some understanding and patience. Luna is a gentle dog who can be easily startled, and Shana is very good about recognizing Luna‘s limitations on their walks. I highly recommend Shana”
About: I have had dogs of my own for 20+ years, including senior dogs, good with puppies too :). Fostered homeless dogs for 15 years in my home with PetHaven Dog Rescue of Minnesota. I care by feeding, walking, and also administering medications, depending on individual dog needs/personality. Note: I work during the weekdays. I work Monday thru Friday day hours and can let out dogs during my lunch hour. I can stay in your home evenings and overnight. At this time I do not have pets of my own. Able to dog sit in your home. Leash or Fence at ALL TIMES for SAFETY.
About: I grew up on a farm with many animals, including a lot of dogs. At 10 years old my first job was taking care of my neighbors herd of cattle. I raised and trained a "Guide Dog for the Blind" and spent 11 years of my youth in 4-H and FFA showing cattle and horses. I also had cats, bunnies, chicken and ducks. I am retired and take my girl running, hiking and for walks on my property and on public lands in the area. We also spend time exploring our neighbors large ranch that I have access to. I have a fenced yard and 11 acres. My girl is content either lying around or exploring. She would love to make new friends and keep your dog company.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid, and I’ve always loved it! I’ve walked dogs, played with cats, fed fish, and even helped care for more exotic animals. I also worked at a vet clinic for a year and a half, which gave me extra experience and knowledge about animal behavior, health, and how to notice when something might not be quite right. I truly enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have a fairly flexible schedule and am happy to work with you to find times that work best for you and your pet. I usually recommend checking in on pets twice a day for meals, care, and some socialization. However, I am more than willing to check in more often if your pet needs it or if it would give you peace of mind while you’re away. I feed my own cat twice a day, but I am happy to follow each owner’s feeding schedule and provide more frequent meals if needed. I always respect an animal’s space if they do not want to be pet or play, while still giving them gentle encouragement and attention if they seem lonely or down. I have also given pet owners updates about their animals, including photos and videos, so they can feel connected and know their pets are doing well while they are away.
About: My family fosters numerous animals, so I have a ton of experience taking care of newborn kittens/puppies who need a little bit of extra TLC! I work part time, and I love to hangout with animals in my free time. This usually consists of a good walk or just some quality time! In my home, I have 3 dogs and 4 cats, so we have a full house. We have an unfenced yard, but we have a run in the backyard.
About: As a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, I bring reliability, responsibility, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. You can count on me to be dependable, follow your pet’s routine closely, and treat your home and furry family member with the utmost respect. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and compassion I give every pet as if they were my own. I know every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies who need structure, exercise, and positive reinforcement to senior pets who require a slower pace, extra patience, and medication reminders when needed. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions, maintain feeding and walking schedules, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also believe communication is key. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care that gives you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I schedule my day to ensure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of affection. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care, I make reliability and punctuality a priority. I also keep pet owners updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so they can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of booking requests, including weekdays, weekends, and many holidays. I strive to provide dependable care that fits each pet’s unique routine and needs. I have a fenced yard. My home is kept clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards. I monitor pets throughout the day, provide plenty of exercise and enrichment, and separate pets if needed to ensure everyone remains comfortable and safe.
About: I know how it feels to leave your furry friends home alone. I’m here to give them the care they need so you can have peace of mind! I work a very flexible job that allows me to come and go. Weather you need someone to check in on your cat during the day, or take your pup for regular walks I’m your gal! I do not offer pet care in my own home. I am happy to offer services in your home!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Lockwood is $23 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $31 per walk.

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 Lockwood. 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 Lockwood 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 Lockwood. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
