About: Hi I’m Lillie!!! I’m a reliable, attentive, and caring animal lover with 12 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, cats, and foster animals, and I truly love getting to know every animal’s unique personality and needs. I’ve helped train puppies, volunteered regularly at animal shelters walking dogs, and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I also have two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and compassionate caring for your furry family members. I’m very responsible, responsive, patient, and detail-oriented, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel happy and cared for every step of the way. My goal is to become your furry best friend’s temporary best friend while you’re away! I also love providing photos, videos and update check-ins so you can feel relaxed knowing your pets are in good hands. I’m a very caring, attentive, patient, and reliable pet sitter who truly loves animals and treats every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets while you’re away, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for in their home environment. I work Monday–Friday from 8 AM–5 PM with an hour-long break during the day, which allows me flexibility for check-ins, walks, feedings, potty breaks, and quality time with your pets throughout the day. Before and after work, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care, and I always prioritize keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I’m very responsive, detail-oriented, and committed to following your pet’s routine closely so they feel happy, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. Animals have always had a huge place in my heart, and caring for them comes very naturally to me. I care deeply for my own pets and always make sure they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for every single day. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same level of love, patience, attention, and compassion that I give my own. One of the most important things to me while pet sitting is keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, walk times, medications, playtime, bedtime routines, or simply giving them the comfort and companionship they’re used to, I always prioritize making pets feel secure and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m very attentive and detail-oriented when it comes to animal care, and your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priority. My goal is to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment where both pets and owners feel completely comfortable and at ease.

About: I have babysat or taken care of dogs/animals ever since I was a child. To this day I will take in pets that are hurt or homeless until they are rehabilitated or find a good home. I have experience with all ages and stages of canine. Experience training dogs, nurturing them back to health, birthing, caring for seniors and special needs, bottle feeding babies, and much more. Let me know what your special needs are! I homestead and care for livestock on our farm. I have a pretty open availability. My largest chores here are completed early morning and late evening, giving me opportune time to be available during the days for checking in on, playing with and feeding, walking or housing your pup. I do not crate animals unless specified by owner. They will hang out with my family and I like they are our own if they are staying with us. I will follow and respect your rules for your pet in your homes and mine. We can work together with any special needs. I have an incredibly flexible schedule which allows me plenty of time for drop-in visits, doggie day sitting or to go on walks with your incredible pup. I will follow and abide by the rules you have in your home for pup. During our meet and greet we will go over all expectations, needs and rules for your doggie.

About: We have had the pleasure of owning a small business called "Pet-Inn" and boarded many dogs! Me and my mom took care of others dogs for quite some time and really enjoyed it. This experience helped me become passionate about entrepreneurship as well as working towards a compassionate connection with your pets! I currently have a part-time small business I'm running apart from being a "SAHM" so I will have plenty of time to get to know your beloved pet and get to know them so I can take care of them in the best way I know possible! I have some free time in my schedule, so finding a slot during the week to care for your pet works well for us. I have a now 6-year-old who adores small dogs, cats, and other animals! I am well aware of the responsibilities of pet care, but I want to emphasize that your pet's safety is my top priority.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Mason City on Rover is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 per walk. 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.

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 Mason City. 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 Mason City 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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
