“She is amazing. It was a very last minute dog walk and she was more then willing to help out. My dog was able to pee and poo and let out some energy. She was understanding of some confusing things and helped out with supplying some fresh water to my dog. I am definitely rebooking her again!”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life. I also grew up with hunting dogs. So I can handle high energy breeds. I also work with horses, so I can handle high maintenance animal care. I can give shots, medication, and follow instructions. I work a lot, so the weekends work best for me. If you want to sleep in on a Sunday or go out late on Saturday, or even just take a nap I'm good to walk your dog. I always have water out for my dog, and feed him twice a day. I have a fenced in yard that he can run around in, and plenty of dog toys to play with.
“Baylee was wonderful! She was reliable, responsive, and took great care of our very shy and particular German Shepherd. We just moved into a new house so we were worried about how he would do when we were gone but he did great with Baylee! We came home to a happy, healthy dog and we will definitely be using her again to watch Mav 😊”

“We love having Kristen help us out with our dog Mae. She follows instructions perfectly and has helped us a lot with reinforcing training commands. Kristen is super punctual and we always know we can count on her 100%. It is obvious how much she really loves caring for your pet too. I would highly recommend her (and I have)!”

I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., but I have a flexible schedule and work from home on many days. This allows me to be available for morning and evening walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. On the days I’m working from home, I also have more flexibility for potty breaks, walks, and spending extra time with your pet. I want your pets to feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’ll stick to their normal routine, follow any instructions you leave, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’ll treat your home with respect and send updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Arantza has been absolutely fantastic. She is reliable, dependable, and clearly cares about the dogs she works with. I have complete peace of mind knowing my dog is in her hands. Highly recommend her services.”
About: I have had a dog since I was 3 years old. I have dog sat for a variety of people back in Montana and in Michigan. I'm super excited to meet new people and dogs! I also get along with other animals as well. Growing up I had pigs, chickens, horses, and a dog. I have dog sat for other families since I was 13 and have been dog walking since I was 10 just for neighbor dogs. I have dog sat a three month old puppy for 3 months while his mom went out of the country. My schedule is pretty open and flexible. If you need to know anything else just let me know I'm glad to answer any questions. I love me some doggy time 😊😊 I am currently working full time first shift but outside of that I can spend as much time as need with the pets. I can also extend my lunches to check on them during my lunch as well. I can ensure your dog will be safe while you are away and worry free. I like to send lots of pictures and updates of how they are doing!
“My dog is pretty anxious when it comes to new people/being around people when I’m not present, but Jasmine is so great with him! She was able to meet him prior to becoming his dog walker and he loved her instantly.”
About: If my husband would let me, I’d buy a zoo (come on powerball). I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve never met a pet that I didn’t want to spoil and cuddle. My daughter calls me a “stay at home pet mom”. Most days I’m home all day, with the exception of an occasional errand, appointment, drop ins for other dogs, or maybe a date night. We have 3 rescue kitties, who are like my tiny babies, very spoiled. Bam- who loves to help walk all the pups, and my girls- Pumpkin, and Elsa- who try to avoid visiting dogs at ALL cost. Basically I’m their “do-girl”. They all know how to talk me into extra treats. We also have Cash- a 1.5 year old, 30lb. Cocker Spaniel- who likes to think he’s a 125lb Husky. He hasn’t met a dog, big or small, he doesn’t like. We have a new pup, a female cocker spaniel, Carter. She’s 8 months now, she has appointed herself Official Play Time Supervisor of any and all dog guest- your pups will go home tired. Occasionally our daughter’s Boston Terrier, Franklin will visit, he hasn’t met a person, dog, or cat, he doesn’t like. He’s truly the best boy. I have had to administer meds in the past and don’t mind doing so. Animal caretaking is my full time job and my family is 1000% okay with that. I’ve never met an animal that I didn’t want to bring home with me. We just moved from Sparta to Ravenna, and we’re now on 3 acres. Your fur baby is invited and encouraged to make our house their home away from home. They will be well spoiled and loved, as my entire family will be doting on them.
About: Responsible college student and animal lover. I have grown up around animals my whole life. Neighbors, friends, family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets. I have cared for pets of all sizes and personality types. I’m an animal lover looking to spend time with your pets, showering them with love and attention while you’re away. I am a college student at Michigan State University this year which means I am home on holiday breaks and summers as of right now! This still leaves plenty of time for me to care and love on your fur baby. I am available to come care for your pets for either the day or extended periods of time. I will ensure your pet is safe and well cared for while with me. I truly enjoy surrounding myself with a variety of pets. I am willing to work with each person to ensure their pets get the best care possible. When it comes to care for your pets in your home, I make it extremely important to put the pets first. Although each pet has different needs whether that is a walk, house sitting, or just a drop in visit. I make sure to shower you pet/pets with the love and care they deserve.

Eden has walked my dog several times, and I couldn’t be happier with the care provided. Eden is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I always appreciate the updates and photos from the walks, which give me peace of mind knowing my dog is happy and well cared for. Eden is also very flexible and accommodating with scheduling, making the entire experience easy and stress-free. I highly recommend Eden to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring dog walker.
Jala is an awesome dog walker for my black lab mix Sadie! She’s very communicative and really gave me peace of mind that she will treat Sadie with love and kindness. Sadie is so excited to see Jala every week and she seems to be tired out after :)) I highly recommend if you need someone to take care of your pup!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Muskegon on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Muskegon. 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 Muskegon.

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 Muskegon. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
