“Hayley was totally awesome!!! I would highly recommend her. We have 4 - yes 4 dogs - and she did an outstanding job. She was fantastic at our meet and greet any did a great job getting to know our “quirky” dog to ensure the comfort level for both of them. She followed instructions perfectly and communicated if there were any questions. But most importantly her truly kind spirit and loving nature is evident right a way. Our dogs loved her and so did we! You can tell that this job starts from her heart. She was beyond wonderful!!!”
“I'll definitely book Jackie again. It's hard to leave your pup in the hands of someone you just met, but Jackie made us feel that Cooper was in good hands. We appreciated her consideration and care with him.”
“I can't say enough how warm and loving Kelly is toward dogs. The moment my dog met her for the first time, he ran up to her and acted as though she was his long-lost best friend. She is absolutely the best.”
About: I’ve cared for 7 dogs and 2 cats throughout their full life span, from puppyhood and kittenhood to senior years, including pets with special senior care needs. I’m confident handling large dogs and focus on structured walks, mental stimulation, and enriching playtime. As a psychotherapist, patience, intuition, and compassionate care come naturally to me. My schedule is very flexible I'm currently part time and work from home. I can be available on notice from 9am-10pm. I am able to do daily and weekly care/walking/play. I have a fenced yard. Two cats who are used to visitors and other animals. I can also crate animal if requested, use baby fence and adapt to living requirements specific to client needs.
“Katherine is an excellent dog walker. My dog absolutely loves her, and she is always on time and does everything I’ve asked of her. Katherine gives me great peace of mind that my dog will be walked and played with when I’m at work all day.”
“Awesome walker! Easy communication, on time, went above and beyond to make sure our pup was dried off and our home was tidy. Definitely will be using again!”
“Karina has been one of the top consistent walkers over the past year. Maisey simply adores her and we are blessed she is part of our routine. I would highly recommend her.”
“I had back to back bunionectomies & was unable to walk our dog while my husband was out of town. Patrick came & saved the day……excellent with our 85 pound Shepherd/Goldendoodle mix!! He went above & beyond!! So grateful definitely will be using Patrick again!!”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life since I was 3 years old. My experience includes dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs up to 14 years old. Growing up with dogs has taught me how to understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. I regularly care for my family's dogs whenever my parents are out of town, handling daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and providing companionship. In addition, I have cared for dogs and other pets for family members and friends while they travel. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs, my reliability, and the genuine care I provide to every animal I look after. I treat every pet as if they were my own and work hard to maintain their normal routine so they feel happy and secure. As a Physical Therapy student, my weekdays can be busy with classes and studying, but caring for animals remains an important part of my daily routine. Every day, I make sure my pets are fed before I leave for school and again when I return home. I also stay on top of responsibilities such as cleaning the litter box and making sure all of my animals are comfortable and well cared for. My weekends are much more flexible, allowing me to dedicate additional time and attention to pet care. Because I balance a demanding academic schedule with caring for my own pets, I am organized, responsible, and committed to maintaining consistent routines. Pet owners can trust that their animals will receive dependable care, attention, and affection while they are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a comfortable environment for the pet. I understand that pets feel most secure when they can stay in their normal routine, so I make every effort to follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. For dog walks, I will ensure dogs are securely leashed, remain aware of our surroundings, and provide exercise appropriate for their age and energy level. During drop-in visits, I will make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean up after them as needed, and spend quality time giving them attention and companionship. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. I am dependable, attentive to details, and committed to keeping owners updated so they can feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away.
About: Helloooo, my name is Veronica and I love all animals ❤️. My parents currently have a 1 and a half year old American Bully who I see everyday to give him a walk. I had experience taking care dogs and cats from all ages, my previous dog Nuka lived until she was 12 years old. I have the best support system available, which is my mom. When I am not available to come for some reason, I know I can always count on her to help me take care of your dog or cat. I will communicate with you and provide you with many photos and videos throughout the booking. I will treat your pet as if it was my own. I have experience with giving oral medication.
“Michael was great with my 3 dogs and keeping my foster dog separate and taking him for a nice walk. He even sent me a photo. The dogs seemed to really like him! We will definitely be hiring him again! Thank you, Michael!!”

About: I am a sound healer, wife, mother to my toddler and animals. My husband is a city of chicago worker and we love the chicago area :) We are very active and love to go on long walks and love being outside with our dogs! I absolutely adore cats and love to spend time feeding the feral cats in my neighborhood. In my spare time I also love to go to the local park with my daughter to watch the squirrels and birds. I love nature. I am good with all types of animals and they love me! We have 2 dogs and 3 cats, and some chickens in our backyard. Our dogs are very friendly and love making new friends whenever they can. I truly love watching and meeting new animals and enjoy this type of work. Your pet will love and I cannot wait to meet and take care of them. Please reach out so I can help you with your pet needs! My schedule is open and flexible. My sound healing job varies but typically does not get in the way of pet sitting/ dog walking. Most days I am at home with my toddler or we are out exploring the parks. We have many pets in our home that we care for. I love to work with lists to help me to ensure all tasks are completed and that I am organized.
“Chris is THE BEST. She showers Remy with love and we know Remy has a great time with Chris because she's always tired when we get home. Chris always sends detailed visit summaries and great pictures!”
About: Hello there! My name is Alyssa Murphy, Aly for short. I myself, have been a dog owner of an adorable malti-pin named Cobi, for 9 years now. I have also owned two cats beforehand and raised abandoned kittens to health, ensuring they were going to proper homes that would appreciate and take care of them. How does this relate to you? Well, I will guarantee to be that same type of home I would of chose for those rescued kittens. That home-away-from-home for your pup, the home I would look for if I needed a dog sitter. No matter if he/she likes to jump around and play, or just likes to relax on the couch, I’m the girl for the job. Your pup will feel highly appreciated and taken care of at the end of the day, and so will you! Any inquires, please feel free to message. P.S. here’s my promo code :) : ALYSSM29530 *I also know how important it is to remain safe and clean during these times, I will make sure to clean and disinfect everything in my home your dog(s) will encounter.* I’m currently working full time and have part time classes online, so I have a few free days (Thursday afternoons, all day Fridays, Saturday nights and all day Sunday-Monday) to take care of your best friend! My house is always kept clean and tidy. Since I have a dog myself (that likes to get into things) there isn’t much left out for him to grab. I live on my own, so I can also adjust according to your pet. I’m always willing to play, walk, and give attention as much as needed/wanted!

Hayley was totally awesome!!! I would highly recommend her. We have 4 - yes 4 dogs - and she did an outstanding job. She was fantastic at our meet and greet any did a great job getting to know our “quirky” dog to ensure the comfort level for both of them. She followed instructions perfectly and communicated if there were any questions. But most importantly her truly kind spirit and loving nature is evident right a way. Our dogs loved her and so did we! You can tell that this job starts from her heart. She was beyond wonderful!!!
Michelle walked my 5 month old puppy the last two nights and I’m so happy. I don’t get home from work until close to midnight so it’s so nice to not have to go for a long walk right now. The walk got her crazy nighttime energy out and now I’m able to catch up on love island comfortably on the couch instead of having to go on a long walk at 1am. Michelle sent some picture updates which was cool. I obviously will be booking again. Thanks for making my life easier.
Elizabeth was an amazing care taker of our dog Sammy. She was very friendly and always on time. She even gave him extra care when he was having tummy issues. She also took the cutest photos of him which really touched our hearts. I would highly recommend Elizabeth for her wonderful care taking services! Excellent job!
We feel so lucky to have found Mary as our dog walker. Our dog Biz absolutely loves her—and Biz is an excellent judge of character, so that says everything! Mary is incredibly reliable, honest, and kind. She’s gentle and attentive, and we always feel completely at ease knowing Biz is in such good hands. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she works with. We highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet.
Erin is absolutely incredible!!! We have two amazing pups, one who is a nervous, recent rescue. Our newer girl was struggling with a different walker, snapping and growling at each visit. Within minutes of meeting Erin, our little lady had clearly welcomed Erin into the fold. Erin is helping our girl to settle into life and gain more confidence with each walk! I would recommend Erin to anyone!!!!
Suzy has such a gentle aura! Wally made himself right at home. She was great in sending updates and photos. Suzy also made a point to adjust to Wally’s schedule and his training needs; this was a major point for us when looking for a dog sitter. She is reliable, responsive, and incredibly kind.
Laura is absolutely wonderful with our Fernando! For starters, she’s very flexible and accommodating due to my ever-changing schedule. Secondly, she’s great with taking Fern out for his little walks/potty breaks, and even plays with him a bit before she heads out for the day, updating me on the new tricks they’re practicing! Lastly, Laura is great with communicating with me regarding everything involving Fern and their walks together. Thank you Laura for doing an awesome job!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Norridge on Rover is $12.6 per walk (as of July 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 13,400 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Norridge. 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 Norridge. 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 Norridge.
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 Norridge. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
