Tara is a top tier dog walker. She had so much patience with my shy, stranger-averse dog and took extra time to build trust. Tara left detailed rover cards for each walk and took plenty of photos.

Danielle is fantastic, she took good long walks with our dog, sent me daily updates with pictures about how our dog did, and indicated the exact time of her activities. We felt totally confident with Danielle's care of our valued pet.

About: I am a dependable and compassionate pet sitter and dog walker with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet like family. I have experience working with reactive and anxious dogs and understand the patience, awareness, and calm approach they often need. I pay close attention to body language, safety, and each dog’s individual comfort level to help them feel secure and cared for. I currently have a cocker spaniel and love to walk and play with him. I know how important consistency, exercise, affection, and communication are when someone else is caring for your pet. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, companionship, or extra patience and attention, I will provide reliable, loving care and treat them as if they were my own. I am a teacher and have summers off. I have full availability to care (walks and check-ins) for your pet during the week or weekend. I would love to get on a schedule if you need one for consistent work. I am looking for jobs that will get my active and outside. Whether that is playing with your pet inside your home or taking them for long walks around your neighborhood/in a destination of your choosing.

About: I've been a hands-on pet owner for over a decade. I'm comfortable following specialized care routines, and staying calm in stressful or medical situations when pets need a little extra attention. I have experience administering medications and managing complex medical needs. I've also been a lifelong cat owner and cat-sitter for neighbors and family, so I'm well-versed in the quirks and independence of cats of all temperaments. I work from home, so your pet gets consistent companionship throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule that allows for plenty of playtime, walks, and one-on-one attention. When caring for pets in my home, I keep a calm, structured environment. I have one dog and two cats of my own, all well-socialized and comfortable around new animals. I introduce new pets gradually to make sure everyone adjusts safely. For drop-in visits, I follow your pet's existing routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any specific instructions. I send photo updates throughout the day so you always know how your pet is doing.

Savannah was excellent! I appreciated how thorough she was and how she put so much care and intention into caring for my dog, Yuki! We scheduled a meet and greet beforehand so that we could go over some details and get acclimated with each other. On the day of the walk, she followed all of the instructions and sent some cute photos from the walk. Will definitely be working with Savannah again soon!

About: I grew up with all types of animals my whole life. I recently purchased a home and though we don’t own any pets currently I would love to be able to share this huge yard with yours! I have two energetic girls that can play all the energy out of your pup then supply endless snuggles. I work from home with my husband and our daughters. We would be here all day to help provide cuddles, belly rubs & lots of backyard time! Our yard is a popular Sniffspot in our area that offers lots of new smells, is loaded with pup toys & has huge running room for the zoomies! We have a fenced yard and no other pets of our own. Your pet’s comfortability and safety is my number one concern. I know every one has their own comforts & I am very accommodating to their needs. Fake indoor plants and hardwood floors for easy clean ups!

About: My late fur baby had CKD and oral cancer. I am experienced caring for special needs cats as I kept her comfortable as long as possible and I’m familiar with administering meds and other sick fur baby needs. If my love was as vast as any cat’s appetite, than your fur babies will be cared for in your absence multiple times over. Available weekends and evenings. I work and live centrally in Talmadge and near Adams Ave and can be available within 15 mins drive to most residences in metro San Diego. I have a dog park at my apartment complex, an outdoor gated walking space, and will look after your pet like family. Even though I have a cat, Bougie knows how to share his space indoor with your fur baby. If you prefer I can drive to you to spend time with them and perform the duties of a responsible pet sitter.

About: My friends and neighbors count on me to check on and sit their animals, and I regularly walk my own pups with their neighborhood furry friends. I grew up with Rottweilers, and have embraced small dogs in recent years. I'm 6ft and 200lbs, and am comfortable with a variety of sizes of dogs. I currently have total flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help with pet care throughout the day. I'm just getting started on Rover, but I've been a dedicated pet parent for almost a decade and love the way it enriches my life. I'd be happy to extend the same level of care and understanding I give to my own pets to yours. I live with my two pups in a small condo complex, where I have an enclosed back patio and immediate access to a very walkable neighborhood. I am comfortable entering friends' homes and allowing the animals to acclimate at their own pace, and am just as happy taking pets for walks as I am keeping them company in their own homes.

About: I currently have 3 cats and I’ve had two dogs of my own in the past who I adopted and loved deeply, and they taught me the importance of patience, routine, and gentle care. I’m comfortable with cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities and truly enjoy building trust with each pet. I work full time fully remote during the week which gives me flexibility for lots of day time loves and pets and letting outside. I also love to go on walks on my hour lunch and long walks at mission beach during the weekend! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and routine instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, clean environment. I provide gentle care, close supervision, and regular updates with photos and messages so you always feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and it’s something I truly enjoy. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me to feed, walk, and spend quality time with their pets while they’re away. I worked at the humane society, so I have experience with various breeds and temperaments. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs—whether that’s high-energy playtime, gentle care for senior dogs, or helping reinforce basic training. I prioritize safety, routine, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working part-time as a nanny, so I have plenty of time to be with your pet! I’m available on the weekends and Monday-Wednesday I own a home in Talmadge with a fully fenced yard, offering a safe and secure space for pets to play and relax. My quiet, secluded neighborhood is ideal for calm, enjoyable walks. I closely supervise all outdoor time and prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine so they feel right at home.

I am so grateful to Monique, she did such a great job helping to take care of our Yoyo while we were out of town. My dog is not always easy but took right to Monique. She kept me updated and sent me photos. Especially when you are out of town it is so important to know someone is taking such good care of your pet. I will definitely be reaching out to Monique again and appreciate her so much.

With senior pets, pups that have excited accidents, or administering medications, I’m confident in handling a variety of situations with care and professionalism. Your peace of mind is important to me, so I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and anything else you need to feel connected while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend and create a positive, stress-free experience for both of you! Caring for pets isn’t just something I do, it’s part of my everyday rhythm.

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. My dog, Bearra, a Lab and German Shepherd mix, recently passed away after living an amazing 15.5 years. She was such a huge part of my life and taught me how important patience, love, exercise, and attentive care are for pets at every stage of life. As a teacher on summer break, I’m looking forward to spending more time outside doing something I truly enjoy, caring for and spending time with dogs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, caring, and attentive service for both you and your dog. I am a teacher on summer break, so I currently have a very flexible schedule with my days, evenings, and weekends available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I enjoy being active and outside, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine and gives me the opportunity to spend time doing something I genuinely love. While I do not have a private yard, my complex has safe grassy areas for walks and bathroom breaks, and I enjoy taking dogs on walks around Coronado, Seaport Village, and Miramar Reservoir. I treat pets like family, so they are welcome on the furniture and will receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and care while they are with me.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Oak Park.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note
