“Great communication! Took wonderful care of our puppies on a very busy day and we truly appreciate her caring and attentive care!! Highly recommend!! Thank you,Lila!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life with my family, and happily care for them still. I’ve even volunteered at the Boulder Humane Society to provide extra care to those who need it most in my community. I’m a recent graduate on summer break with another job where my availability varies. I start up school in the fall and will have weekends and some time after classes to care for your pets! I’ve always had dogs on the bigger side and am not scared to crate a dog if needed. I am capable of handling all sizes of dogs and cats and always aim to provide a safe and comfortable environment for them!
“We have been working with Riley for quite a while now, and she continues to consistently deliver the best care for our pupper. She is an excellent communicator, great with our dog, and is always accommodating/flexible. We wouldn’t trust our pup with anyone else more! ☺️”
“I got suddenly hospitalized in Denver and Cole came to our rescue. He was prompt in communicating, showed up right on time and very helpful with my high energy lab. Thank you Cole!”
“Tara was so awesome and caring!! she really made sure me and my pup felt safe and comfortable. She treated my pup with sooo much love ❤️ I’ll absolutely be requesting her again”
“Jennifer has been my sitter for over a year now. Recently I added a black lab for her to watch as well. Thought the visit she was extremely communicative with both pets as to their needs and how they were doing.”
“Dan may not know I know, but he shoveled my frickin' driveway and sidewalks while taking my dog for a walk while I was out of town (without me asking). Who does that?! This guy does. Also my dog adores him. 13/10, will book again.”
“Sebastian was fantastic with my boy!! Sanders absolutely loves him, and comes home from every walk happy and tired. I had never had to use a dog walker before but Sebastian made me feel completely comfortable and confident he was in good hands. Sanders and I will happily request his help for future walks anytime!”
About: With over 10 years of dog/cat sitting experience, I’m dedicated to providing reliable, loving care for every pet. I value building long-term relationships with the families I work with and pride myself on being flexible, dependable, and communicative. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away!! I’m currently a student at CU Boulder, So I have plenty of time on my hands! I’m very flexible and can make almost anything work! I have a large backyard and 2 friendly dogs who love to play, as well as an extra dog crate. I’m also comfortable staying at your home so your animals can feel at ease!!
“Sarah does an amazing job with walking my dogs during the day while I am working! She is on time, reliable, sweet to the dogs, and communicates well! You will not be disappointed with Sarah! Highly recommend!”
“Vicenza, has been so great with my dog Marley! It takes Marley a long time to warm up to people and to trust them…and Vicenza has managed to do gain her trust in a short period of time.”
About: Hi! I’m new to rover but not new to taking care of animals. I’m a compassionate and dependable pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all shapes and sizes. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, playtime, or overnight care, I provide personalized attention to keep your pets happy and healthy while you're away. Experienced with dogs, cats, and small animals. Always let me know if your pet needs any specific care :) currently available any day and any time. Currently unemployed. Just moved to CO and have open availability! Open to boarding, staying, or drop ins. I love caring for animals and love to give them some love when their parents are away or working a long day! For my home, I have a back yard as well as plenty of space for play and do not mind dogs on furniture. I will always keep a good eye on them and take them out for a walk around my neighborhood.

About: I have been sitting through Rover since 2021 and have truly enjoyed spending time with so many pets! I've sat big dogs, little dogs, cats, fish, and sugar gliders! I feel that through Rover I have excelled in adapting quickly to a variety of pet's needs. I’m currently living in the Boulder/Longmont Colorado area and am open to book sits around north Denver. I just moved here from Orlando Florida. When I lived in Orlando, if I had spare time, I liked to drive rescue transports for ORCA, Greyhounds in Motion, and Orlando Pet Alliance. If you have suggestions of rescue transports I can drive for in the northwest Denver area please let me know! My current work schedule is working remotely, so for any house sit requests, please ensure there is space for me to set up my laptop and take work video calls. I’ll have studying to do in the evenings and on the weekends so your pets can keep me company while I do schoolwork ☺️ I'm good at adapting to you and your pet's needs! I'll give them love, care, and attention if they want it, but will respect them if they prefer not to be pet (we all know those cats 😄)
About: Every since I was a little girl I’ve craved interaction with all different kinds of animals. I’ve done volunteer work at the animal shelter, house sat for friends and family and have even owned my fair share of dogs. I am not able to get a dog right now due to my busy schedule, so I would love to be there for those looking for some extra help! More than willing to send you pictures and updates as I take care of your loved one! Our apartment has a little puppy park out back and beautiful trails around it. Our apartment is very welcoming to animals and I’m sure your pup would get love from the whole building! Please consider me when looking for a caretaker ♥️

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Louisville
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.
Larisa did a great job in walking our dog Luca, a 65-pound English Shepherd. I felt confident going out of town for a week and leaving him in her hands. I knew her experience in dog training would keep him safe. Besides that, he loved her and could wait to take his walks!
Highly recommend! Communication was clear and reliable from start to finish, which gave me peace of mind. When I returned, my dogs were happy and relaxed. I really appreciate the effort he put into giving them a good, long walk. If you’re looking for someone dependable who truly cares about your pets’ exercise and well-being, this is your person!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Louisville on Rover is $22.2 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 13,325 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 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 Louisville.

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 Louisville. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
