About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since I was young and continue to care for my senior cat whom I’ve had for the last 12 years. I have experience walking dogs ranging from small to large sizes, and live near a forest preserve trail that would be perfect for their walks! Friends and neighbors have also relied on me to do drop-in feedings as well. I work full-time, 4 days a week, evening shift. So I am available most mornings and have a pretty flexible 3-day weekend schedule. I live in a building complex that has a fenced in little dog park for your pup to run around in. I’m also near a forest preserve trail if they prefer longer walks to explore nature. Cats will have a safe, quiet space to stay with a large window to sun bathe in the mornings and cozy blankets to snuggle in.
About: We're a family of five who adore pets of all kinds! We had a wonderful dog named Peace for about six years and plenty of experience petsitting for friends and relatives. Due to travel commitments, we currently have no pets-- which gives us plenty of time to care for yours. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works on a hybrid schedule, which gives us plenty of flexibility and allows us to be home for the majority of the day. Our daughter is currently enrolled in online high school, so she has plenty of time to walk, care for, and play with your pets! We have a large fenced yard and are able to crate your pets if provided. We'll take dogs for walks a minimum of twice a day and let them roam in the yard/provide at least a couple more potty breaks.
About: My best friend goes out of town often, so I would stop by her house to check on her dogs (feeding, playing, taking them out for walks, and changing out the pee pads). I also helped care for my roommate’s dogs/puppy. Additionally, I’ve volunteered for dog walks from a local dog shelter! I love taking dogs on walks and hikes to keep them active! I’m a nurse, so I only work 3 nights a week (7pm-7:30am). I have more than half the week available to walk/play/take care of your pets! This also means I am available in the mornings after a shift, as well. Although my work nights vary weekly, I am more than happy to coordinate our schedules that work best for you :) I live close to a lot of forests, trails, and parks, so your pup will have a wonderful time staying active outdoors! I am very attentive to details and will adhere to specific dietary needs!
About: I’ve had a passion for animals since I was a little girl. I get along with all my neighbors’ dogs and my neighbors rely on me to take care of them some times. My old roommate has a golden retriever and I love taking care of him, giving him a bath and walking him. I have two cats at home and I even taught them some tricks! I’m currently working part time only on Mondays and Thursdays. So I have lots of free time outside of work taking care of your dogs and playing with them! I also have a car so I can drive to wherever you are and take your dogs for a walk where they are the most comfortable with. I live right next to the bike trail and woods, which is a paradise for dogs! If you have an athletic or active dog, I’ll take your dog running the trails, swimming in the pond, and have all the fun in the outside world! If your dog is less active, I’ll give your dog all the comfort and love at home, making sure they are well fed and entertained.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — from growing up with them to raising my own now. I currently care for a black Lab with a strong personality, so I understand leash control, structure, and clear boundaries. I’m calm, consistent, and confident with all breeds, including high-energy or reactive dogs. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walks, feeding, cleanup, and calming routines. Whether your dog needs structured exercise or just a reliable visitor, I’m ready to show up. I work part-time with a consistent, flexible routine that allows me to care for your dogs during the day. I’m available for walks and drop-ins: • Mondays after 11:00 AM • Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after 8:00 AM If your dog needs structured exercise, calm energy, or just a mid-morning break, I’ve got you covered. While I do not offer in-home boarding, I provide dependable drop-ins and walks tailored to your dog’s needs. I live with my own dog, Sam, who is reactive to other animals, so I cannot bring pets into my home — but this also means I understand how to work calmly and respectfully with dogs that may need space or structure. I’m confident handling leash reactivity, high-energy dogs, and special instructions.
“We had a great experience with Jenny! She was right on time and kept us updated throughout the walk. Our dog was happy and well cared for. We were very pleased and will absolutely be using her again. Highly recommend!”
“Mario is a gem! Olive and I had such a great experience with Mario — he’s friendly, professional, and truly knows his stuff when it comes to dogs. From the very beginning, he connected with Olive and made her feel at ease. She was always excited to see him, and I felt completely confident leaving her in his care. What really stood out was how Mario handled an unexpected stomach issue Olive had one day. When he arrived for her walk, he noticed she’d had an accident inside and immediately recognized that something was off. Not only did he take care of the cleanup without hesitation, but he also kept me updated with calm, thoughtful messages and even brought rice on a follow-up visit to help settle her stomach. That kind of attentiveness instills so much confidence and really reinforces just how much he cares about the dogs he works with. Mario goes well beyond the basics — he’s compassionate, attentive, and clearly invested in the dogs he looks after. Olive and I are both so lucky to have found him. Can’t recommend him highly enough!”
About: Enthusiastic and engergetic dog sitter. I love dogs. I love taking them to dog parks and on long walks in the forest preserve by my house. I've had dogs my whole life and always have taken great care of them to make sure they have a happy and fulfilled life. My most recent dog is a Collie named Buehrle with lots of energy. He loves to go for runs in fields and play with other dogs at the dog beach.
“I would highly recommend Kevin and we will be using him again. He is very responsible and extremely punctual. He was on time for every visit. He sent pictures and videos for every walk. He responded to every concern promptly when I texted him. My dog Patch liked Kevin so much he did not want him to leave.”
About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with professional experience to back it up. I worked as a dog walker for a local service for about 18 months, providing daily walks and in-home vacation care — including overnight stays — for clients. On top of that, I spent 10 years volunteering at animal shelters, so I've handled dogs of every size, age, and temperament. More recently, I walked a client's dog every weekday for months, and I've provided vacation care for a friend's dog in their home on several occasions. I have hands-on experience with selective and reactive dogs who need a calm, confident handler — my own dog, Chris Ryan Jr, is a 10-year-old rescue who is reactive himself, so I understand exactly what owners of selective dogs worry about. No dog parks, no group chaos, just one-on-one attention for your dog. I'm a CrossFit coach and mom of three in Jefferson Park with a flexible midday schedule, offering weekday walks and drop-in visits in your home. I'll follow your dog's routine exactly as you lay it out — feeding, medication, quirks and all — and send photo updates after every visit. References available upon request. I'm a CrossFit coach, so I work early mornings and my midday hours are wide open. I'm available for walks and drop-in visits on weekdays, roughly 10:00 AM to 4:00PM with flexibility on either side of that window. I'm based in Jefferson Park and stay close to home during the day, so your dog's midday break fits naturally into my routine. Evenings and weekends are occasionally available for vacation care visits — just message me and I'll do my best to make it work. In your home, your dog's routine and your rules come first. I follow your feeding, medication, and walking instructions exactly, double-check the collar and leash before every walk, and never let a dog off-leash outside. Because I specialize in selective and reactive dogs, I plan my routes to avoid other dogs and cross the street early rather than risk a close encounter. I keep doors locked, leave your home just as I found it, and send photo updates after every visit. Before any vacation care, I'll ask for your vet's information and emergency contacts so I'm prepared for anything.
About: I’m a pet loving individual here to help and protect your fur babies in your absence. My name is Cynthia and I currently have two cats, one beagle/hound dog, one hermit crab and a beta fish. I am patient, flexible, caring and have dog and cat training experience, since I grew up with pets of all kinds. I have experience with both large and small dog breeds. I’m flexible with whatever the needs are of your animal and will treat your dog/cat like our own plus accommodate as necessary. I’m active and love going on dog walks or cat sitting and look forward to taking care of your fur babies. Happy to provide references. I’m currently working part time and have plenty of time to take care of more than one pet. I’m also flexible either morning or evening works good for me. I have a big fenced yard and two crates (size small and medium) if needed. I also have a friendly dog who can play and keep your fur baby company.
“Wow Jonathon is amazing! He takes my dog on a walk every morning during the week. It gives me peace of mind knowing he is in good hands with him. Outstanding knowledge and experience second to None! Thanks for the great work my friend.”
“Nicholas is a fantastic dog walker! He's trustworthy, flexible, friendly, consistent, and most importantly he's truly great with my little puppy. He takes great care of her and sends regular videos of them playing. I can tell they really enjoy their time together. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog walker!”
About: I’ve owned dogs mostly all my life. I’ve teached them to be potty trained and leash trained as well. I really love taking my dogs on walks. I love being around any kind of animal. Animals are my passion. I’m currently working a part time job. I’ll have to watch over your babies before 3pm or after 7:30. I’ll be able to watch them as long as you want. I have a fenced backyard where your babies we’ll be able to play with my 2 friendly dogs that I have. I also have a friendly cat.
About: Starting at a young age of 8, I've cared for animals of friends and family. Ranging in all ages of cats and dogs, I'm confident in administering medication if needed and not scared of any sort of clean up. Having just moved back to the Chicagoland area from NOLA, my schedule is flexible. I am available for drop in visits and dog walking! I like to bike when weather permits but have access to a car as well. I do not offer services at my home but would treat yours as my own. Of course, cleaning up after your fur bb(s), following specific directions, and making sure they are settled before leaving.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Morton Grove is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Morton Grove
Amy was wonderful! She had great communication and was very flexible, which we really appreciated. Our dog Brady can be very nervous around new people, and Amy was so patient, respected his boundaries, and followed our instructions without pushing him. We felt very comfortable having her work with him and are so happy we connected with her. We’ll definitely be using Amy for future walks and highly recommend her!
First time using Rover and I have full confidence in Claire C. I have a senior dog with health issues so I’m always concerned but Claire allows me to relax and focus on my job. Her communication is perfect and ability to adjust to dogs needs are fantastic. I appreciate her. Highly recommend.
Mirna is amazing! Milo looks forward to his walks with Mirna because she lets him take walk at his own pace and is so sweet around him. We look forward to her "Rover Card" every day because she is very detailed with her notes and you can not only tell she has experience with dogs, but also loves them. Thanks for everything you do.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Morton Grove is $24 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $37 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.

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 Morton Grove. 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 Morton Grove 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 Morton Grove. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
