“Michaelle was excellent! She was great with our dogs and they responded well to her. She was very accommodating with our old man with bad arthritis who could not walk far and our energetic girl who could walk for miles. She was also in constant communication which was very important for me. We would definitely use Michaelle again!”

About: Loving Local Pet Care You Can Trust 🐾 Reliable, attentive care for dogs and cats throughout Ontario & surrounding Counties. With a lifelong connection to animals and experience with household pets, farm animals, and rescue animals, I provide dependable care tailored to your pet’s routine. 🐾 Dog Walking & Care Visits Personalized care for walks, potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, paw cleaning, enrichment, and companionship. Visit time is reserved specifically for your pet, with activities adjusted according to your pet’s needs, cooperation, and weather. 🐱 Cat Care Feeding, litter care, fresh water, medication assistance when appropriate, play, companionship, and attention to your cat’s normal routine. 🏠 Pet Sitting & Drop-In Visits Attentive care while you’re away, including feeding, potty breaks, fresh water, medication assistance when appropriate, play, enrichment, and companionship. I can also handle simple agreed-upon home tasks such as bringing in mail or watering plants while caring for your pets. 🌙 House Sitting & Overnight Care Evening routines, bedtime care, overnight stays, and early-morning care can be arranged based on your pet’s needs and my availability. 🏠A Few Things to Know🏠 • **Meet & greets are required before booking** so I can learn your pet’s routine, discuss their needs, and make sure we’re a good fit. • Care visits are based on the **reserved service time**, rather than a guaranteed number of walking minutes. Weather, your pet’s behavior, cooperation, and individual needs can affect how that time is used. • I provide **updates and photos during visits** so you can stay connected with your pet while you’re away. • I do not provide continuous 24/7 care in general. Overnight and extended-care arrangements are structured around your pet’s needs and scheduled care periods, and I may leave during the day for previously scheduled clients unless otherwise arranged. • **Rates shown on Rover are for the listed services.** Additional or customized care may be quoted based on your pet’s needs, number of pets, location, and schedule. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 My schedule varies with regular clients, but I can fit most requests for weekdays and weekends. The app may not have my current schedule due to last minute bookings and updates. If in doubt drop us a message! In clients home I like to keep to their schedule that they are used to with you to make them feel comfortable. Anything that will make them feel better or less anxious let us know and we will be happy to implement.

About: I am a licensed veterinary technician since 2019. My standards are high for my own animals as well as yours. I have the skills required to take care of a wide range of animals. I am confident in my ability to care for animals. I do not care for dogs under 1 year old. I do not care for untrained dogs. I enjoy caring for exotics such as rabbits, ferrets, hamsters etc. Pet care is my job. I take care of the animals during the requested time. If I'm staying overnight, I take care of your pets and home. I leave and come back as I need. I follow what the client would like me to do. We would meet, you would share the appropriate information and I would follow that. As it says, this will depend on what service you need. We can discuss this at a later time.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. We have always had at least one dog in the house if not more. In the past 6 years I have helped my parents to puppy train twice. I love dogs unconditionally, but I am not afraid to show a little tough love when needed. I’m currently going back to school and attend a lot of local sporting events but I still make it a priority to take my dog for a walk daily. Whether we fit in a walk before I leave in the morning or in-between class and a game, I know how much she loves her walks. I also make sure to give her ample play time when I am home. I make sure that whether the pet is in a fenced in yard or not I am always keeping an eye on them when outside. I always respect the clients wishes regarding their animal being on furniture, in what rooms, and such on.

About: I had a cat for 20 years and cage aninals when i was young. I have owned a dog with anxiety so patience was key. He needed Medication for that and his hips. I own two cats and a hedgehog. My cats come to a whistle, know how to sit and lay down, go to their blanket where ever it is. My older cat is great in the car and the younger cat I am currently training. I cut their nails and bathe them myself. Both are leash trained. I handle my hedgehog daily so that he is well socialized. My cats never bothered the rats or the hedgehog when let out of the cages. They would sleep woth the dog when no one was home. I work 12 hour over night shifts for my regular job. I am looking for day time and, when off night time or overnight opertunities to fit my shifting schedule. I work in Macedon and live in West Henrietta so I am flexible with locations. I am a quiet private person. I have two cats and a hedgehog. I previously owned rats, a dog, leopard gecko, and other caged animals Cages, boxes, bowls and, other cage items are cleaned daily as well as deep cleaning every 4 to 5 days or as needed. I enjoyed taking the dog as well as my cat for a walk! I have patience with animals with anxiety. I walk or handle pets that friends have such as snakes and birds.

About: I grew up with a great dane, and then my family adopted 3 dogs of different sizes after that. I’ve been surrounded by, and taken care of dogs my entire life growing up in Rochester. I have worked for local dog daycare and boarding facilities as well. My location provides a good place to socialize with other dogs as well if needed, just minutes from several parks and open land. A fIexible schedule allows me to work with people to meet their specific needs, and take the necessary time to be thorough. I enjoy the process of working with dogs and understanding their personality. I use positive reinforcement techniques to reward behavior and maximize dog comfort. I currently work afternoons, and am a night owl. I spend my mornings drinking coffee or walking dogs, and evenings helping friends with pet care who work late nights in health care, law enforcement, etc. While I cannot board dogs overnight in my apartment building, I have experience boarding within owners homes. I know the stress of finding a private care provider, and offer meet and greet beforehand to make sure pet parents feel at ease. I also provide normal drop in walking/care while owner is away.

About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.

About: Have a puppy? I’m well-versed in puppy pee pads and the fun game of find the poop. Have an older dog? A slow meander or a quick circle around the yard and sit on the front porch are just as enjoyable as a fast paced walk. How about a bully breed? I’m used to the house hippo slamming into you when you enter the door. We have one of our own. Ever had your knees taken out from under you because a chimpmunk ran by? I have. Ever wrestle a house hippo afraid of water into a tub? Yup. That’s me. Bad listener? We’ve got one of those. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members. …and, yes, I always pick up the poo 🤓 I work from home with flexible hours, so I’m available during the days, in the evenings, and over the weekends. I am only able to take kid and pet friendly pets into my home, but am able to get to yours. It all depends on a pet’s need and the owner’s preferences. if they need exercise during the day or in the evenings we can take walks or play outside. If there is a mess, you can trust I’ll clean it up. Poop? I got it. Outside playtime? Absolutely. I can stop by once or several times a day depending on your pet’s needs.

About: I have had dogs my whole life.. I worked in a kennel and as a dog groomer, where I got to spend time with many different breeds of dogs. Friends have asked me to stay with, feed, walk and drop in on their pets. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of areas of time to play with your pets! I am available to dog walk and drop in during the week and Saturdays after 12. I would love to discuss if you need someone to house sit overnight! I will care for pets by following the routine that they are used to and treating them with love, kindness and respect. I want to create a calm environment for them and let them know they are safe with me. I will also treat the client’s home with respect.

About: Hi! My name is Matty, and I have been owning for and caring for various species of pets for most of my life, from dogs and cats, to horses and hamsters. I currently own a dog and a gecko! I trained my own dog, and have dog sat for various breeds and temperaments of dogs over the years. My own dog is a rescue, so I understand dogs with certain reactivity issues or fears. I have plenty of time to drop in and take care of your pets throughout the week! Take a peak at my calendar to see the weeks and days I am unavailable or feel free to send me a question to confirm! As a lifelong pet owner myself, and someone who has also relied on pet sitters over the years, I understand how important pet safety and comfort is. Keeping your pet safe is my number 1 goal. I rely on positive reinforcement when working with and caring for animals. I believe in being both gentle and confident is the key to successfully working with animals.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Mendon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Mendon is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $22 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 896 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Mendon. 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 Mendon. 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 Mendon 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 Mendon. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
