About: I grew up around many dogs. My parents LOVE English Bulldogs and we always had 2-3 in our home whether we were fostering or they were ours. A few years ago we found a cat in the woods and decided to add to the family! After moving out, I have decided to rescue two cats of my own and they have been such a blessing! I also watch my friends dogs and cats from time to time. I am currently studying to be a personal trainer and work at a gym opening a women’s fitness program. My schedule is pretty open currently as I am studying for my personal trainers certificate! I am also a bodybuilder so my life really revolves around the gym! My schedule is currently very flexible. I currently have two cats, and I play with them often. They have many toys and cat trees. I would consider myself very playful. I also love to walk dogs! My bulldogs at home love walks 1-2 times a day which I have been able to help out with when there. I hope to offer similar services!
About: I had a dog of my own for 14 years until we had to put her down due to old age, nowadays I look for any excuse to be around doggies. I am highly qualified in going for walks, feeding, playing, giving belly rubs, and using the pooper scooper. I'm currently working part time and looking for something that is either a one time job or only for a few hours a week in order to work with my schedule, bring in some extra cash, and most importantly give your pet some love while you're away. I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard, so I prefer looking after your pet in your home to ensure that no accidents happen.
“Dar is my go to! She’s so communicative, punctual and detailed with all of her visits. I appreciate the extra care and attention she pays to my 2 big girls. They can be pullers and a little wild, but she handles them with care and grace.”
About: I am a person that loves all animals. Some pet parents will leave a small list of the schedule I need to follow. Whenever I come to hang with the cuties I’m always snapping pics and sending them to the pet parents. Just so everyone knows they are in good hands. Whatever it is that y’all need me to do I make sure to get the job done. Sometimes when I babysit if the parents need me to let the dogs out and feed them then I do it. So cats/dogs will get fed and taken out, we will play ball and have a load of fun. I promise I don’t bite and am very easy to talk to. If anyone ever has any questions feel free to ask!
About: I am a dog owner for the past 8 years and own two Setter pups. Friends have entrusted me with their dogs for petsitting and dog walking - in some occasions I would have as many as 4 dogs with me, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! As a dog parent I know how important is to have someone you trust with your baby, I will treat your dog as my own, making sure your dog is safe and happy! My work schedule varies week by week between office and home, which allows me some flexibility. When in the area, I am flexible to go on a walk with your pup to get some fresh air or do a drop in visit to spend some time with them. When I drop in to check on your pup or take on a walk, I will always follow your instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. During walks, I will keep a close eye on them, always be on leash, and make sure they get the right amount of exercise based on their energy level. Afterward, provide a quick pupdate so you know your pup is happy and well taken care of.

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong pet lover and owner with pet-sitting experience for family and friends. Their dogs always walk away from my pet sitting with lots of walks, belly rubs, and playtime! I'm comfortable with all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler pace. I'm also an avid runner, so if your pup has energy to burn, I'm happy to take them jogging instead of just walking. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority.

About: Since I was 11, my neighbors have trusted me to feed and walk their dogs + cats. I have handled very large dogs but also small dogs without struggle, with a wide range of ages from puppies to seniors. I have worked with multiple special needs animals and can administer any kind of medicine. I am a student so I have summer off right now, but start school august 25th. Most important holidays I will be gone out of town for. I am in a boating family, so most weekends we try to get out onto the lake during the summer!! Mostly only free during summer and Christmas break, I try to keep my calendar up to date but feel free to always reach out! I have a fenced in yard with enough space for your pups to run around and play. My neighborhood is a very safe and quiet area. I pay close attention to the pup and will follow your care directions exactly how you would like!
About: Hello! I currently have a 6 year old black lab named Goofy! He is the absolute most important love in my life and I spoil him completely (as shown in my profile picture)! It makes me happy to see him so happy! 🥰❤️ I have a full-time job, but I do not work full-time hours. I essentially work as a medical rep and only go to my facilities when a case is scheduled; on average I work about 10-15 hours a week which is M-F only. With this being said, my schedule is fairly flexible and I can be available any time of day, including weekends! The care and attention definitely depends on your pet’s specific needs. Your pet will be well cared for around the clock and have loads of attention!
“Marianna walked our dogs each morning for about a week and a half. She did an outstanding job dealing with our two pups who can be a handful walking together. Each morning we received 2 photos of each of our girls and they always looked like they were having a blast. We’d also get a great report card with a few sent news describing their walk that day. I would absolutely use Marianna again for dog walking services.”
About: Sensitive, friendly. I will never hurt or harm an animal. I have a son, he is 10 years old and he dreams of having animals. We are willing to play and love them as our own Any other time is negotiable, I go out of my way to accommodate pet owners. In the summer, any schedule, we'll make arrangements and In all weathers I don't have a house yet and therefore an apartment. I am ready to take them for long walks, to feed them at home or at your place, to wash them.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Prospect
Hannah is truly wonderful! During the meet and greet she was so attentive and loving with our pup! She is detailed and truly honors pet owner wishes. Cooper loves Hannah and coming home to a tired pup feast great! She gave him a really good walk and we are so appreciative! Easy to communicate with and she does a great job keeping you in the loop with updates. Highly recommend her and we will for sure be requesting her again
Tina was very easy to communicate with. She visited us twice before the scheduled services to meet and allow the dogs to get to know her. I have 2 dogs, one of which is very shy around new people. Tina was very patient with her and allowed her to get to know her. I would highly recommend Tina for her patience, her enthusiasm and how awesome she was with the dogs.
Kaitlyn is extremely proactive asking clarifying questions to ensure she can give my dog the care and attention he needs. She's punctual and sent a cute update of Greg on their walk, as well as an update on his reaction when she first came into my house knowing that's something we're working on discipline-wise. You can tell she's an animal person, and I would trust her to walk and care for Greg whenever I need her.

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 Mount Prospect. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mount Prospect. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
