“Glen is doing wonderful job with our Sasha. She is more playful and happier in general. She makes him work to start but than enjoys the fresh air and is ready for nap when they get back. Couldn’t be happier!”

“Amanda was an outstanding dog walker. She was always on time, communicated openly and often, and was much loved by our dog Pico. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a walking companion for their four-legged friend.”

About: Thanks for stopping by my profile! My name is Olivia, I have been taking care of animals ever since I was a child and had a cat and dog of my own. Since then I have taken on dogsitting up to 10 dogs at a time for people who are fostering, cleaning up after various other animals, and offering quick assistance to those in need of short notice. I have now been with Rover for a year and have enjoyed every second of it and loved meeting all the people and pets that have blessed me with their presence. I value the moments I have with them more than the “rewards” because them being happy is all the reward there needs to be. If you are interested I would love to have a conversation! Thank you again for your time and stopping by my profile to learn about me and I hope to be meeting soon! I currently do an online class for ICC and take care of the home so my availability is pretty open. I do have pets of my own but my husband works as a team to ensure they are well taken care of and I daresay spoiled. I ask per parents to let me know of any triggers an animal may have or if they know certain things bother them. I ask them if there are any places in the house/yard that are unsafe or they don't want their pet to be in.

About: Hi! Hablo inglés y español. I work part time and spend the rest of the time adventuring with my toddler. I'm looking to spend time with and care for dogs, and as a former dog owner I know how hard it can be to find a good sitter. After I spent 3 years caring for a dog with a chronic illness, I am accustomed to all sorts of needs and am happy to accommodate them. I have also lived with and cared for a senior dog and I can work with dogs of all ages. I will only take one dog at a time, unless they are from the same family. I have a small yard and good neighborhood for walks, so can be active with your dog or let them spend the day sitting on my lap! Let me know if you have any questions! I work part time in the community. Since I make my own schedule, I can be flexible to accommodate your dog’s needs! My toddler also loves dogs. I have a yard and a home with plenty of space for dogs to roam. Dogs will be monitored at all times and all medicines, cleaning supplies, etc. are safely stored. If your dog uses a crate, that is also welcome but not necessary. I will only take one dog at a time.

About: I have been caring for animals since the age of 5. I have always loved animals and wanted a job where I could spend as much time with them as possible. I have raised and trained all of my own pets. I lived on a farm for years caring animals of all ages and sizes. I enjoy anything outdoors but can make the best of any situation. I’m experienced in animal therapy as well. I have many friends and family who have relied on me to care of pets while away or sick. I am an animal lover and would make sure your pets are cared for as if they were my own. I do not currently work as I stay home. Being able to do a job (which I wouldn’t even call it a job) working with animals would be a dream. I care for all pets as if they were my own while abiding by the owners rules. I enjoy being outside as much as possible so exercise is no problem. I also can offer baths/mail trimmings/desheddings as well. I am here to care for your pet as you would yourself.

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life. Friends and family have trusted me with taking care of their pets since I was a kid. I love dogs and cats of every size and am always looking forward to meeting a new animal. I work full time Monday through Friday. So I am available to stay at your house to care for your pets during the week when necessary. I can also take care of your pet before and after work, and any time during the weekend. I usually don’t have much going on, so I am very flexible on when I can come over as long as it is not while I’m at work. I am willing to stay at your house when necessary. I am also willing to come and go as needed when necessary. I am happy to spend time with them so they don’t get lonely, or to take them on walks. Your pets needs are my top priority!

FAQs for Dog Walking - North Peoria

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in North Peoria is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $19 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 199 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across North Peoria. 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 North Peoria. 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 North Peoria 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 North Peoria. On Rover:

  • 90% 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 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.
