“Karina was delightful to meet and she did a great job with our two dogs. She went the extra mile for us by doing it all on a short notice. We really appreciated her being available to lend a walking foot so we could go to Chicago for the day.”
“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.”
“Leora is absolutely phenomenal and I can’t recommend her enough. I am a super overprotective dog and cat mom and get very nervous leaving them with a sitter (or literally anyone that isn’t me). She is so fantastic with them and sends updates with multiple pictures after each visit. If you are looking for a sitter or walker, please have a consultation with her first! If her 5 star reviews don’t convince you, watching her interact with your pets will!!! There is absolutely nothing more valuable than the peace of mind of knowing your pets are being loved and cared for and seeing your pets smile in their pics. ;) My cup runneth over…We adore you, Leora!”
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
“Cathy is incredible! Right from the start, she offered to come meet my dog ahead of time and as soon as she walked in I knew she would be a great fit. She took the time to play with him, pet him, and let him get to know her. As a result, when she arrived to pick him up for his walk, he was happy to see her! This extra care to getting to know my dog (and letting him get to know her!) is so appreciated - especially since I have had other walkers give up on him. I would recommend Cathy to anyone who is looking for a caring and compassionate sitter or walker.”
“Yesterday, Jason was walking our dog when a neighbor’s dog ran through its electric fence, and charged my dog. Jason calmly and skillfully de-escalated the situation, preventing potential serious injuries to my pet. Jason is a wonderful dog walker, and in this case he went well above and beyond the call of duty.”
“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 was wonderful with Jaxx on his first walk. He was shy at first since he’d never had a walker before, but her calm and patient approach helped him warm up quickly. She let him walk at his own pace, shared detailed updates, and even sent a picture, which I really appreciated. I felt very relieved and will definitely continue using her services”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and love them so much! I have experience with puppies as well as our senior friends. Walks and playtime are my specialty! I work at home and am able to take great care of your pup. I have a yard and am close to a park for plenty of outside time. I can adjust to the routine your dog is used to. I am very flexible. I take one client at a time so my whole focus will be on your dog. Just let me know your needs.
“Nataliia did a great job walking my 2 dogs. She was able to handle 2 dogs one of them a big 100lb pitbull very well. She was on time and followed all my instructions perfectly and a bonus she even walked them a bit longer than requested to make sure they both went to the bathroom. She fed and gave them water as well. I would definitely have Nataliia walk my dogs again.”
About: Hi everyone! I am a teacher & dog mama who is looking to keep busy this summer and help take care of your fur babies! I have been helping take care of pets and house-sitting for over 8 years. I’ve had both dogs and a cat as pets so I am very familiar & comfortable with them. I have experience with caring for dogs starting at 8 weeks up until their senior years, so I know how important it is to stick to a schedule when it comes to potty breaks or medication. Since I am a teacher, I have most of the summer completely free on the week days and weekends other than a few weeks where I will be traveling. I am able to stay at your home all day and night if needed, to help watch over fur baby. I ensure that your pet stays comfortable in your own home by respecting their space and boundaries at all times. If you have a pet that is a bit shy towards new people, I do my best to give them space and not overwhelm them with my presence. I will stick to any schedule you may have to ensure that your pet has an easy transition while you are away.
About: I have been taking care and watching my own dog Millie for nearly a decade. I frequently walk, watch, and house sit for family and friends during the holidays. From puppies to older dogs I have experienced care with giving dogs medicine including diabetic shots. I love dogs and am passionate about taking care of them and making sure they are the happiest they can be. I’m currently in between jobs and looking for work so I am available any time during the week or weekend. I am currently dog walking for one client every week day around noon so outside of that I am available whenever needed! I frequently walk my own dog at home as well as feed them breakfast and dinner. I have dealt with many different breeds and types of dogs and can adapt to any station.
“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!”
“Jennifer was great: caring, prompt, accommodating, and attentive. She repeatedly offered to go out if her way to offer additional assistance while I was physically incapacitated and unable to walk my dog.”
About: I have experience to be sitter for my friends dog Tison and they were out of town, and I was taking care of my grand-mom for 3 yeasts I work part time in the restaurant as a hostess and I have a lot of time to be this dogs and cats. I like to spent time with them I always pay attention to what they do, how they feel and try to do what they want, come with some goodies and toys they like

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 July 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 .

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
- 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 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.
