About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and apparently they've had one for me too. Hi, my name is Sarah and I live in the Boulder area. I’ve been a lifelong pet lover and have had the pleasure of sharing my life with all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles, birds, and even livestock. Unfortunately, I recently became petless after my old girl passed away. This has left my love for pets homeless and I would love nothing more than to give it all to your babies. Cuddles, belly rubs, a good hike, maybe a little mud and a bath and of course some yummy treats, I’m here for it all! Whether your pet is a professional couch potato, an enthusiastic adventure buddy or just needs a little extra TLC, I have the experience and enough love to keep up with them. I’m currently working as part of a wildlife rehabilitation internship. I’m still in the first stage, so I only need to be there about 20 hours a week, which gives me lots of flexibility. This means I can work my internship schedule around what your pet needs! Early morning feedings? Done. Middle of the night potty breaks? Done. Need a midday nap buddy? Done. I’m open to both weekdays and weekends and with 24 hours’ notice, I can usually adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Your pet’s routine is important and I’m happy to work around it whenever I can! My first priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible because I know that consistency can make a big difference when their favorite person isn’t around. This all starts with the bond I work to form with them from the moment I become the stranger invading their territory. I’m not just there to feed, walk and clean up messes. I’m there to make sure your pet doesn’t feel scared, abandoned or stressed while you’re away. I want you to be able to leave knowing that they’re not just being looked after, they’re being loved. That peace of mind for you also comes from my close attention to detail. No door will be left open. No change in behavior shall go unnoticed. No accident will be left unattended and no animal shall be shamed. I won’t just keep your pets alive. I’ll make sure they feel safe, secure and cared for, with lots of stories for you to come home to while you’re out creating your own memories.

“My golden girl LOVES Cole so much! When I leave for work in the morning and tell her “Cole is coming” she does a happy dance and zoomies around looking for him. He takes such good care of her and she can feel the love he has for his clients. My mind rests easy and I can truly focus on work knowing that she is in his care.”

About: We are Andrew and David, a married couple who have spent years caring for dogs of all ages, including our own senior dog who required daily medications and specialized care for heart, Liver, Lung and kidney conditions for his last 4 years with us. Through that experience, we learned how important patience, consistency, and attention to detail are when caring for a pet. We are comfortable administering most oral medications and many injectable medications, following feeding schedules, monitoring changes in behavior, and providing updates to owners. While we are not currently accepting diabetic pets requiring insulin management, we are happy to discuss other medical or special-care needs. What sets us apart is that your dog will benefit from having two dedicated caregivers. One of us is often home, allowing for more supervision, companionship, potty breaks, and personalized attention than many traditional boarding environments. We understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet place to relax, our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and low-stress home away from home. We also know how much owners miss their pets while they’re away, so we provide regular updates and photos to help you stay connected and give you peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. David is home most days, and Andrew works from home three days each week, which means there is usually someone available to provide companionship, supervision, and care throughout the day. We enjoy staying active and regularly take multiple walks each day, typically covering a mile or more per walk. Depending on your dog’s age, energy level, and needs, they can enjoy plenty of exercise, enrichment, and time outdoors. For dogs who prefer a slower pace, we’re equally happy to provide a comfortable environment with plenty of attention and affection. Because we spend so much time at home, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and can maintain a routine that feels comfortable and consistent while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and well-being are our top priorities. We provide boarding in our home, a clean and comfortable townhome with access to numerous walking trails, a large nearby park, and a dog park for social dogs who enjoy that environment. We understand that every dog is different, and activities are always tailored to your pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort. We have extensive experience caring for reactive dogs and understand the importance of managing environments, avoiding unnecessary triggers, and respecting each dog’s boundaries. Whether your dog enjoys meeting new friends or prefers quiet walks and one-on-one attention, we will make sure they feel safe and supported during their stay. Before each booking, we take time to learn about your dog’s routine, preferences, medical needs, and any behavioral considerations so we can provide consistent care that feels as close to home as possible. We treat every dog as if they were our own and provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I've raised and trained my 8-year old Aussie, Bernie since he was a little guy. He's a very sweet and loving boy. For as long as I can remember, I've loved dogs. I decided to sign up for Rover to be around them more.🐕🤗 Over the years, I've watched dogs for friends and love to run with them in the park. I promise to help train them, engage them in physical play and teach them how to be a good running partner. I love running and trail running almost as much as I love our furry friends. If your looking for someone to help get your dog in physical shape and to teach them the ways of the park, I'm your guy! 🐕🏃 I currently work from home and run a small Turo business on the side. This allows me to be home most hours of the day. I spend a lot of time with my pup and plan to do the same with yours! My dog, Bernie, is a very good protector of the house and loves other dogs. When at dog parks, he plays sheriff and tends to break up fights, especially when the little guys get picked on. I'm not sure where he picked up this job but he takes it very seriously. 🚓 In addition, he'll keep your dog company whenever I'm not able to be home. In general, I take the safety of our furry friends very seriously and so does Bernie! 🤗

About: I’ve been taking care of and painting dogs and sometimes cats here and there for almost 4 years now. No professional work, only personal with family and friends. I would care for a dog and cat at Kodama Farm in Washington (My brothers farm). I cared for a 1 year old, husky puppy for 1 whole year, every so often (my sisters dog). I’ve had more friends and family ask me to watch their puppers. In total I’ve been with a golden retriever, black lab, black lab mix, husky, pekingese, french bulldogs and an australian shepherd. Sometimes I even make drawings or paintings of the dogs I’m with! I’m an artist and I’m striving to create a pet portrait business and what better way to get in touch with owners than this app! I work landscape a couple days a week and work late on Sunday doing cleaning for a wedding venue. So I’m pretty free and have high hopes that watching your little friends will keep me busy. If i’m not watching your pet then I hope to be painting/ drawing them! I have a fenced yard with access to go inside and outside whenever they please. I love with my family, my brother has a dog that’s more of a people person than a dog person. Then a cat that is used to other dogs, but he’s still a cat. I’m super close to Waneka Lake and I’m close drive from other various parks or open spaces.

About: I am new to the area and looking to gain some experience taking care of fur babies!! I have three wonderful cats of my own- Toast, Piper, and Suki! I have spent the majority of my life living with dogs as well, and am looking forward to meeting some new pups! I am currently working part-time while I wait to start graduate school in January, so my schedule is very flexible. I am typically available after 9 or 10am Monday-Friday, but I may be able to care for your pets over the weekend if they need some weekend love! I am very respectful of owners’ homes and personal spaces, keeping the space organized and cleaning up after pets whenever necessary! I am always motivated to keep your space as clean, if not cleaner, than I found it!

About: I’ve been privileged to have dogs be apart of my entire life. From having them as pets, caring for others, and volunteering for multiple shelters over the years, dogs have been a priority for me. I have deep respect for routines and instructions, can work with new born to seniors (who are just babies really), and will give them the love and attention they deserve. I am currently working on aspects of my education (post doc life!) and have a lot of time to dedicate to pet care. I recently got married this Summer and my husband and I have two little hamsters and live with two wonderful cats! I have minimal travel plans, so would be interested in a one time walk to a pet sit, and everything in between. I have reliable transportation and I’m allergic to being late. Communication and following instructions is top priority for me, so you will never wonder how your wonderful companion is doing. When caring for pets in your home my priorities include respecting your property, your instructions, and your animals needs. Schedules are followed to a T and communication including updates and pictures if wanted! Something I really pride myself on is being able to adapt and match the energy your animal needs. From extremely anxious to very extroverted, I can easily find the pace they are most comfortable with to reduce stress, build trust, and give them the love needed while you are busy!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and for the past two years I’ve lived on a farm where I have gained experience caring for many different types of animals. We also double as a kitten rescue, taking in lost and abandoned kittens from newborns through teenagers. We bottle-feed, raise, and care for them until they are healthy, grown, and ready to be adopted into loving homes. I am extremely passionate about healthy and safe animal care and ensure that in my work. I am a college student and recently moved away from home and my farm, and the first priority on my list was getting back into work with animals. Being at CU I am occupied in the mornings and late afternoon. Anywhere between 11am-1pm I am free in between classes, and anytime after 4/5pm at night. I care for pets with patience, attention, and lots of love while making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. Having cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, and a variety of farm animals, I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, giving them exercise and playtime, and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. Through helping my mom run our farm and caring for rescued kittens, including newborns, I’ve also learned how important it is to be gentle, responsible, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, primarily caring for cats and dogs. My experience includes dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic routines, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ve especially worked with older cats and dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they often need. I also have two cats of my own back home, giving me firsthand experience in daily responsibilities and expectations of being a pet owner. Because of this, I’m very mindful about my care towards your pet! I’m currently a second-year, first-generation student at CU Boulder, balancing school and a Work-Study position. I’m generally available Thursday through Monday after 1 PM and can be flexible with advance notice. When I house sit I treat every home with respect, focusing on your pet while you’re away. I understand leaving your home and furry friend to a stranger can be worrisome so I do my best to comfort your pet and keep your space the way you like it.

About: I’ve had dogs for 15 years, and loved, trained, and raised them from puppy age until the very end. I’ve taken care of friends and family dogs for seven years. I have experience in senior dog care and know how important it is to go at their pace, on their time. I’ll only take on full-day or overnight pets on my days off, which means they will get my undivided attention. Plenty of bathroom breaks, walks, and love. Dogs are allowed on the furniture in my apartment, so just let me know if those aren’t your rules. I live in an apartment with a balcony. There’s plenty of open space in the surrounding area and we’ll go on lots of adventures, as long as it suits your pup! I will always keep your dog on a leash unless you tell me otherwise.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and gentle care. I’ve grown up around dogs and have consistently provided walking, feeding, bathing, medication support, and basic training reinforcement (including leash manners and crate training). I currently have a very flexible schedule as I prepare for my board exams in July. I am home most days and able to provide consistent care throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight stays if needed. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I enjoy building my study breaks around walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication in every pet care situation. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and ensure pets are always supervised during walks and play. I am mindful of leash safety, environmental hazards, and pet stress cues. I also provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so owners feel confident and connected while away. I live in a large 3-bedroom apartment with plenty of indoor space for dogs to move around, relax, and play comfortably. The building includes a luxury pet wash area and two on-site dog parks, making it easy to provide both cleanliness and exercise. Pets are welcome on all furniture unless otherwise specified by the owner, so they can feel at home and comfortable. I also have a well-trained 5-year-old Australian Shepherd who is friendly. She can provide companionship and playtime for social dogs, while I always ensure interactions are safe and appropriate based on each pet’s temperament. Pets will never be left alone together!!

About: Hi there! My name is Chris and I just moved back to the Boulder County area from Montana. I'm a former EMT and have many years of experience with puppers of all ages, sizes, and backgrounds. I would love to meet your pup! My schedule is very open and I take my own pup on walks when I can. I work remotely and only need my cellphone. I'm usually available from 7AM until 10PM every day. I have a great deal of experience watching, walking, and taking care of dogs in both my home and others homes. I request a simple schedule that I can follow for the pups and keep consistency, even if that means singing to them to get them to eat their dinner!

I debated about leaving this review because I honestly wanted to keep Jordan to myself buuuuuut..... that would be unfair to Jordan so, here it is. Our girl Nova is a pit bull, and if you have one, you know. She's strong, she's energetic, and she does NOT warm up to just anyone. We had booked Jordan for a two-week house sit and he came by for a meet and greet beforehand. I'll be honest, I was a little nervous — Nova can be picky. But she took to him right away. Like, immediately. My husband and I both looked at each other like, okay, this is our guy. Then life happened. We had a family emergency and had to cancel on Jordan last minute. He was so understanding about it, no awkwardness, no attitude, just kindness. That really stuck with me. And THEN — still in the middle of everything — Nova ended up alone at home longer than we'd planned. I reached out to Jordan basically in a panic and he showed up for her without hesitation. Knowing she was in good hands while we were dealing with so much was genuinely such a relief. We travel a lot and finding someone I actually trust with Nova is hard. Jordan is our first call from here on out. If you have a big, strong, stubborn dog and need someone who gets it — he's your person.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Louisville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Louisville is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $40 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 October 2026, there are 13,192 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Louisville. 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 Louisville. 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 , 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 Louisville 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.

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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
