“Kati was awesome, I highly recommend her...we have two dogs and they have never had a "sitter" stop by to take them on walks. The dogs loved her and she was always on time and flexible when I needed extra walks. Thanks Kati!!!!”
“Hanna helps us out on an emergency basis and has been amazing! She has been so accommodating with unique requests, is super responsive and takes great care of our pup. Thank you, Hanna!”
“Christine was great! I met her ahead of time and instantly liked her. My dog did too. Everything ran smoothly and I loved getting the photos she sent. I’ll surely use her again.”
“Luna loved Nataliia! She was so sweet with her and listened to all the care instructions for Luna. She was responsive, professional and shared details and photos! We can’t wait fo for her to come back.”
“Despite feeling under the weather today and it being rainy day outside, Jason came out and walked Ralph three times today as scheduled. He went above and beyond to ensure that Ralph’s needs were met and took the time to share important information and adorable photos with us. Jason is a kind and responsible person who you can rely upon to take excellent care of your furry family members.”
“Sarah has been to our house for a meet and greet and a walk with my two dogs. She has been great with communication prior to and following both appointments. She also had a wonderful way with my polar opposite personality dogs. She gave my people-timid boy the space he needed to feel comfortable and trusting while engaging yet supporting the appropriate boundaries I need to practice with my overly exuberant girl. I'm looking forward to Sarah spending more time at my house caring for my sweet best pals.”
“Haven was so great with our dog. She was available on short notice and went above and beyond to take care of our dog that has anxiety. He felt very comfortable with her right away. I would highly recommend Haven as a dog walker/sitter!”
“Hannah is just an amazing dog walker. She was just amazing with our boy. She communicate when she arrived, when she left and sent us probably the best picture we have of him. We will for sure use her services again in the future and recommend everyone to reach out to her.”
About: I have had pets (dogs, cats, horses, fish) since I was a baby. Caring for them feels like a natural task! I have pet sat for many neighbors and friends, and I would love to share some love with your pets as well :) I work as a nurse 3 days a week, so I have 4 days off that I would love to spend with your pets! My schedule changes weekly but I am very flexible with my off days. I love pet parents who know what their pets need. Leave me with simple instructions and I will follow your lead! I love to clean as well, so you won’t have to worry about returning home to a mess.
About: My doggies taught me everything I know. They are no longer here - they went to doggy heaven and we miss them all the time. My teens and I have a lot love to give and want to share with your doggy. You can rest assured we would treat your doggy as if it were ours. Also, anything under 10.5 miles for more than 1 day I offer pick up and dropp off. I work from home and have a very tight routine in our home that will help your pet feel calm and secure. Since pets thrive on routine it will bring them peace and calmness. I can give extra walks when it's a nice day and make sure we stay active if need or relaxed and enjoying a lazy "dog day". I have a quiet, grassy backyard that gives dogs a calm place to sniff, stretch their legs, and enjoy fresh air. It's a low-stress space that's great for potty breaks and relaxed outdoor time. I'm very mindful of which dogs are a good fit for my space and always put safety and comfort first so that your pups feel happy and at ease while they're with me. Doggies are allowed on our beds and couches and even our bathrooms :) - we keep a light sense of humor
“Teena is an absolutely phenomenal dog walker! Her boundless patience and warm friendliness instantly put Bruno at ease. She always takes the time to understand his needs, making sure every walk is a safe, fun, and stress-free experience. I couldn't ask for a better, more caring companion for my pup”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Long Grove
Leah is a wonderful dog walker and we couldn’t be happier with her! She is always on time, dependable, and very accommodating. Leah is caring, trustworthy, and clearly enjoys spending time with Louise. It gives us great peace of mind knowing our dog is well looked after while we’re away. We highly recommend Leah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!
I have nothing but positive things to say about Andreina since she started walking my dog. She has been very reliable, flexible , and responsive when it comes to booking. She has been very prompt and professional and my dog very much likes her and. Feels comfortable with her and I will continue to use her and recommend her to others who are looking for a reliable and caring person to look after their pet
Yuliia has been a great help with our busy schedule! She is great at communication, sharing very detailed feedback about each walk and about our puppy, and helped us a lot with some additional extra tasks (like cleaning his playpen a bit, changing the water, etc) Our pup loves her!!! Highly recommended!
Jennifer was absolutely wonderful with my two dogs. She cared for them with so much love, patience, and expertise, and it was clear she treated them like her own. She kept me updated with frequent communication and shared lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I also really appreciated her flexibility — when I had a scheduling conflict one day, she was incredibly understanding and willing to work around it without hesitation. That kind of reliability means a lot. I would 100% hire Jennifer again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable walker.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Long Grove on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 12,313 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Long Grove. 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 your Long Grove. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Long Grove.

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 Long Grove. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
