About: Hey there! I’ve love and have been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was about 5 years old. I’ve had a few dogs, cats, and reptiles throughout my life. I currently have two cats named Duck and Goose and a 10 year old crested gecko named Bindi. I’m good with cats, dogs, reptiles, and some small animals as well. Even the shyest of pets seem to warm up to me. I’m currently working a full time job. My schedule can be a bit hectic but I’d love to watch your pets when I can! I will keep my calendar updated and be responsive to any requests. I have experience with feeding, brushing, and playing with cats and dogs, as well as walking dogs. I’m also experienced with feeding (including live insects - no mice) and cleaning up after reptiles, along with administering eye drops and oral medicine for them.

We are SO thankful for Lori. We had a last minute change in our schedule with our pup and not only did she respond quickly, she was willing to help and love on our pup. It’s not often you find someone you trust in your home the way we trust Lori.

Emily was wonderful and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided! She was reliable, communicative, and my dog was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable with her. I had great peace of mind knowing that Roo was in great hands. I will happily rebook her in the future!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats most my life and have cared for many friend’s and neighbor’s pets. I love dogs, cats, and even bunnies and will care for yours like they were my own. I have plenty of experience teaching my dogs tricks and good behavior along with giving them medicine and treatment when needed. I currently work part time and am a part time online grad student working on my masters degree from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On my days home I’d love a break to care for your pet or enjoy a nice walk together! I currently have no pets of my own and can come by to care for your pet whenever you may need. I work well with all pets big, small, young, and old as long as they are non-aggressive.

I am very grateful to have found Robin. I have a senior, female pit bull, who was abused before I adopted her. Lily senses Robin's kind nature. She has taken to Robin as a new "best buddy". She's happy to go on walks with Robin and looks forward to her visits. Robin is attentive and a great listener. She is also very punctual, which I appreciate greatly. She has followed all of my instructions perfectly (a rare attribute these days). I have found Robin to be very trustworthy. I give her 5 stars and would give her a 10, if possible. If you want a trustworthy, affectionate and kind hearted sitter, hire Robin.

About: Me and my wife are lucky to both have a flexible career which makes planning your dog's stay with us a breeze. We have been dog sitting some of our friend's dogs for several years whenever they are out of town and they actually told me to get on Rover so other pups can enjoy my space too!! I have experience working with dogs with anxiety and aggression towards other dogs, and special allergy and dietary needs. I have a lot of flexibility with my work and am able to be home throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, cuddles and treats! I am also available during the day to provide drop in visits and walks. I love all dogs, and can't wait to host yours! Extra house-sitting/drop in services: Water plants, check the mail, cycle indoor/outdoor lights. *Please fill out your dog’s complete profile in Rover, it is extremely helping in knowing if we’re a good fit!

About: I have always been an animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. Through drop-in visits and walks, I make sure pets stay on their routine while their owners are away, whether that means exercise, playtime, feeding, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident their pets are safe and happy, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and always prioritize reliability, communication, and a calm, caring approach. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility, so I am able to work around your preferred schedule and needs. I am available everyday to drop-in for a visit or take your animal for a walk. I have had all types of animals growing up and now have 2 dogs and a cat of my own. I treat all animals that I am taking care of like my own. I keep the owner informed on how their pet is doing when I stop, as I prefer to receive the same communication when I am away from my animals.

About: I have been watching our neighbors and family friend’s dogs and doing drop-ins since I was little. My family has also had a dog since I was in highschool. I take him on walks every evening and am responsible for feeding and letting him out when my family is out of town. As well as my sisters dog when she stays with us. I am available throughout the day to do drop-in’s, go on walks or spend time with them at home throughout the day. Aside from a random day I have plans, my schedule is very flexible. I have a dog I take on walks at home and enjoy being outside with. As well as playing/throwing their toys or sitting together at home.

About: Hi! I’m Karsyn, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been a dedicated dog mom to my Mini Australian Shepherd for the past 5 years, and before him I grew up with dogs my entire childhood. I truly treat my pets like my children, and I’ll care for yours with that same level of love, patience, and attention! When my dog was a puppy, I enrolled him in training classes, which taught me so much about dog behavior, body language, and positive interactions. That experience gave me a better understanding of how dogs communicate and how to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. One of my absolute favorite parts of pet sitting is sending photos of your pets to you! I basically turn into the pet paparazzi and love snapping pictures throughout our time together. If you want one update, I can do that. If you want one million pictures, I can absolutely do that too;) I know how hard it is to be away from your furry family member, so I love sending lots of updates to give you peace of mind, and hopefully a few photos worthy for your camera roll! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and have no breed restrictions. If your pup is a strong puller, that’s no problem-I’m confident handling energetic dogs on walks as well! I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is always to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and excited to book again! I work full-time Monday-Thursday and have full availability for pet care Friday-Sunday. Occasionally I can come evening during the week after work when need be I don’t offer boarding in my home, but I’d love to care for your pet in the comfort of theirs! My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Expect lots of love, playtime, and PLENTY of photo updates. I have a slight obsession with taking pictures of animals so If you want one picture, I can do that. If you want one million… I can definitely do that too! 📸🐾

Constantly making sure your pet has the attention and care your pet deserves! Stimulating and helping them work out a lot of their energy instead of being alone!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old. I have one dog named Zeus who is like a child to me and one cat named Tito who I also adore! Sometimes I think I like animals more than people😂. Animals always love me and I always treat them like my own:)) I currently do not work so my schedule is always open no matter what time or day of the week! I’m free almost all the time:)) I have an open yard with a long chain I use for potty breaks or outdoor play time! We also have many neighbor dogs who love to make new friends! All of my neighbor dogs play together and get along great with my dog.

FAQs for Dog Walking - McDonald

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 2,500 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across McDonald. 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 McDonald. 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 McDonald.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 McDonald. On Rover:

  • 93% 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 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.
