About: Between my own family and my wife's, I've had alot of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I've house sat for elderly dogs and raised and trained our own puppy. I've rescued half a dozen lost dogs from our neighborhood. Every dog I meet gets lots of love and yours would be no exception! We already have our miniature poodle pup Winston, so your pup would fit right in with us! I am working from home the vast majority of the time and if I was gone, my wife would be there. As the kid who was always the first to notice when a dog needed to go out and do its business, I'm very attentive to the needs of all dogs. Your pup will be a part of our family during their stay and kept company by my whole family.

About: I grew up on a dairy farm, and have been around many different animals over the years. I started out pet sitting for friends of family members, and families in my local community in my spare time. I have also taken care of a few senior pets over the years by making sure they get their right medications and foods throughout my stay. I also help take care of farm animals, outdoor bird feeders, along with indoor and outdoor plant watering and care. I currently have two cats, Scooter and Goose and they are my world. I am currently working about 20-25 hours a week. My current job is very flexible with hours and time that would allow me to stop in a care for your pets. I am available to do a few days, with the possibility of extending that period of time. I would be able to stop in and care for your pets before I head to work for the day (roughly 4 to 8 hours regularly, but can be flexible) and again after I am done with work for the day before engaging in any activities or turning in for the evening. I am open to stopping in daily and caring for you pets in your home as I dont have much space while I am currently living in the city with roommates and multiple pets in our household. If your pet has a favorite park, or yard to play in, I would be happy to engage in their favorite activities hwith them in those places.
“SO glad we found Donna! So friendly, so great with our dog Sage, clearly knows her stuff…responsive, reliable, attentive to care instructions…all the good things! :) Thank you Donna for your great help - we appreciate you! 🐾”
“Lisa is always reliable and on time. She has walked our puppy several times and let our other dog out via drop in service. We appreciate her photos and the love and care she shows! Will continue to book her.”
About: I started dog sitting for neighbors in grade school. I love animals and have been a pet owner most of my life. I miss having pets and would love to help you when needed take care of yours! I work full-time from home in Lowertown Saint Paul. 90% of the people in my building have pets, I do not but I love them. Mears Park is right across the street and that is where people take their pets for bathroom breaks. With my job I am able to take breaks whenever needed so caring for your pet is easy for me and my schedule. Rover Guidelines based on previous rover boarding experiences: I will only board dogs that are fully potty trained. I live in an apartment building with lots of other dogs. If your dog is not dog friendly and shows aggressive behavior towards other dogs, you will be asked to pick up your dog. There are many shared spaces in my building including elevators and stairways and the dog park across the street, I cannot have an aggressive dog in my building. If your dog barks regularly, I will not be able to accept booking. I have neighbors and I’d like to be respectful. I want to take care of well behaved dogs. When taking care of your furry family member, I am home w them almost 100% of the time and will bring your pup with on errands (if the dog is ok w the car). See above, Everything is listed in my description.If you have any specific questions feel free to reach out or email me at kfr3ds@gmail Thanks so much for considering.

About: Hi! My name is Abby. I have grown up with animals all my life, my family always had at least one dog. I believe dogs are part of the family and they bring so much joy to those around them. It is my job to make sure they are happy and healthy! I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and are familiar with basic training practices. I think it’s important that dogs get all the love they can, plenty of attention, and have a chance to run and get their energy out. I love taking dogs on walks and going to the dog parks. I’m comfortable taking care of multiple dogs and basic grooming, as well! I am looking forward to caring for your pet! I work from 7:30-3:30 during the week, but can walk the dog before/after work to make sure they get plenty of exercise and time outside! I have a huge yard with an invisible fence or a long lead that your dog can take advantage of, spend time outside, and run around!
About: Your pets are part of your family, and they deserve the best care possible. That's exactly what I give every animal I look after. I'm a proud cat mom to Salam and Binx, and I've been caring for other people's pets for years. I've dog sat for my family's goldendoodle for several years and regularly look after friends' cats. I also volunteered at Caring for Cats, where I got hands-on experience with cats of all personalities. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily fit visits and walks around your pet's routine rather than squeezing them in. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking for cats and small to medium dogs in and around Lake Elmo. You'll get daily photo updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away. I truly love everything about caring for animals, and I'd love to meet yours. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily fit visits and walks around your pet's routine rather than squeezing them in. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking for cats and small to medium dogs in and around Lake Elmo. I don't host pets in my home, so all of my care happens in yours. Your pet stays in the environment they know best, with their own bed, their own routine, and none of the stress that comes with a new place. In-home visits: Fresh food and water, litter box scooped or potty break handled, medications given as directed, and real time spent with your pet. Play, brushing, or a quiet lap sit, depending on what they're into. I don't rush in and out. Dog walking: Leashed walks at a pace that fits your dog, whether that's a brisk loop or a slow sniff around the block. I keep a close eye on other dogs and traffic, and I always clean up. While you're away: I'm happy to bring in mail and packages, adjust blinds, and keep an eye on things so your home looks lived in. I leave everything exactly as I found it. Before every booking I do a meet and greet so we can go over your pet's routine, quirks, medical needs, and anything that makes them nervous. I want to know where the leash lives and what your vet's number is before you ever leave. You'll get daily photo updates, and I'm always reachable if something comes up.
About: Dogs have always held such a special place in my heart. I had my own dog for 9 wonderful years before sadly losing her, and I’ve also spent years caring for my brother’s dogs. I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and have lots of experience with American Akitas, so big dogs don’t scare me! I love getting to know each dog’s personality, whether they’re energetic, goofy, shy, or the ultimate cuddle bug. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of love, attention, playtime, and belly rubs while you’re away. I work Monday–Friday until 3 PM, but I’m available afterward and have open weekends. I’m happy to plan around your pet’s routine and my upcoming fall classes. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I want both the pet and their home to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention. I’ll always respect their space and belongings, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure pets are supervised and safe. I’ll also keep the home clean and tidy and communicate with the owner so they feel comfortable and updated while they’re away.
About: Hello! I’m Arianna Paul, a dedicated pet care professional with a passion for ensuring your furry friends are happy, healthy, and well-cared for. With years of experience in animal care, I offer a range of services tailored to meet the unique needs of each pet. I’m currently on summer break in-between my junior year of college at the University of Minnesota - meaning that I have an open flexible schedule! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I’m committed to providing a trustworthy and dependable service you can count on. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with all the love and attention they deserve.
About: My schedule: I work in-office Monday & Thursday, so can only do evenings those days. Otherwise, can do up to 3 visits the other days of the week! Lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages. I grew up with a Golden Retriever and a cat, and I currently have a 5-year-old cat that I adopted when he was 10 weeks. I frequently watch my brother’s golden retriever when he travels. I’ve also worked as a nanny for families with cats and dogs, so caring for animals has been part of my routine for a while. For the past two years while I was living in Florida, I regularly cared for two dogs with separation anxiety who couldn’t be left alone for more than an hour. I spent about 20 hours a week with them providing companionship & playtime. When their owners were away for extended day trips, I administered their daily medication. I’m comfortable giving medication when needed and always follow care instructions extremely carefully to make sure every pet gets exactly what they need. I’m detail-oriented, patient, attentive, and adapt to each pet’s personality and needs. I love animals and find it rewarding to help out with pet sitting! 🩵 I’m free most days of the week and able to work with your schedule. Mondays & Thursdays I work in Maple Grove 9-6pm, otherwise I have a lot of availability and flexibility. Since I have my own cat and he’s timid, I prefer to cat sit + dog sit at your house. I can do overnights, check-ins, walks, feedings. I’m a huge animal lover and extremely trustworthy and reliable, can provide pet sitting references if needed!
“Sharron does a great job and communicates well with us on schedule adjustments. Fiona my Goodendoodle waits at the door for her to pull up to the house and is excited to see her every walk.”
“Sarah did a great job walking our dog, Isabella! She was available for a meet and greet beforehand, which we greatly appreciate, and she gave extra time for the walk as well. She was also very responsive and communicative. We look forward to having her walk Isa again!”

So thankful Monika was available to take our sweet/energetic pup for a few walks while we had some unexpected shifts in our normal routine! She’s an awesome communicator, and I could tell right away by how my dog interacted with her at our meet & greet it would be a good fit ❤️ thank you so much and we look forward to having you back in the future!!
Carolyn is a wonderful dog walker! I’ve used her services several times, she always takes my dog for a good walk and makes sure he does his business, then gives him some water afterwards as well. She is very responsive and easy to schedule with. She uploads lots of pictures so I can see them at work! I would definitely recommend her to others!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Maplewood is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $25 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 November 2026, there are 5,380 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Maplewood. 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 Maplewood. 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 Maplewood 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 Maplewood. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
