About: I love dogs. I am the go to person to take care of my friends and family's dogs when they are out of town. Plus my own dog is super friendly and always game for meeting another dog I work from home full time with a flexible schedule. I am able to do my work and still have time to take care of my own dog and family at home I have 2 year old lab mix to keep your furry friend(s) company. I have a 5 bedroom house, including a full finished basement, and a gated yard so there's plenty of room for the dogs to hang out
“Coleen is super friendly and great with both of my dogs! She has earned my trust and my dogs love seeing her. I would recommend Coleen and will definitely be using her services again.”
“So highly recommend Nick for your dog walking / care needs . Nick constantly kept up with our ever growing/changing dog. We can’t say enough about the care and time that Nick had for him.”
About: I grew up with cats and have taken care of them my whole life, and I am now a full-time pet sitter! I have lived with dogs and done some care for them as well. I currently have a rabbit, rats, a frog, a gecko, and a jeweled lacerta, so I'm well-versed in pet care and in balancing multiple pets' needs! I am also experienced giving meds to rats, frogs, dogs, and cats, as well as caring for rabbits. I am a former librarian, but now I pet sit full-time, so I have a lot of daytime availability to take care of your pets! I'm very careful to triple-check that I'm following all the instructions I am left. I never want to leave out an instruction, since you know your pets best! I always make sure to give pets as much love as they want, but if your cat is shy, I'll give them their space! Please inform me in advance if anybody will be in the home while I am there. This does not preclude me taking care of the pets, it is just informational. Thanks! I pet sit full-time, so I have a lot of availability at all times of day, all week long. Just let me know what time you need and we'll make it work! I don't provide in-home services on Rover. However, my own pets get a lot of enrichment and as much attention as they want to have.
“Ryann was great with our puppy who has tons of energy and can be a handful at times! She sent plenty of updates and was very respectful and responsive in communications. Definitely will book again!”
“Jackie has been absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She’s always on time, reliable, and has taken the time to really get to know each of them. Her patience and dedication have even helped with some training along the way! We’ve had a consistently positive experience and truly appreciate the care and attention she gives. Would recommend, thank you!”
“We had a great experience with Jenny! She was right on time and kept us updated throughout the walk. Our dog was happy and well cared for. We were very pleased and will absolutely be using her again. Highly recommend!”
“Desiree was so thoughtful and went above and beyond to take care of the dogs (and my cat despite me not mentioning him)! The pups and I feel very very taken care of!”
“Amanda helped me out when another dog walker flaked out and never showed when I was in EUROPE! I was scrambling to find someone and she was great! My mom let her in and she feed and walked my pups and gave me updates when their walks were over. Everyone had nothing but wonderful things to say about Amanda. She was professional, joyful and kind. You can’t go wrong choosing her to care for your pets! ♥️😊🌟”
About: To me, pet sitting is about so much more than feeding pets and letting them outside—it’s about making them feel safe, loved, and cared for while their favorite people are away. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to get to know each one so they feel comfortable and at home. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your pet is full of energy and loves to play, enjoys long walks, or is a senior who just wants a calm companion, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, can administer medications if needed, and always keep an eye out for any changes in their behavior or health. I also believe communication is just as important as great pet care. I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in loving hands. My goal is for you to come home to a relaxed, well-cared-for pet who has been treated like family every step of the way. As a college student, my schedule is flexible, which means your dog will never be left alone for long. The only time I’m away is for a few hours each day while I’m in class, and the rest of my time is spent at home giving your pup the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a home away from home where your furry family member gets plenty of one-on-one attention and care. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where your pup can safely run, play, and explore. I also have a small, friendly dog who loves having new friends to play with and can provide great companionship for social dogs. If your dog prefers to be the only pet or isn’t comfortable around other dogs, that’s absolutely okay! My home has a separate basement area that allows me to keep the dogs completely separated that I sleep at, ensuring every pet has a calm, safe, and stress-free environment. I’ll always care for your dog based on their individual personality, needs, and comfort level so they feel right at home.
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: Hi there! My name is Callyn. I’m new to Rover, but have been caring for pets for quite sometime now! Originally, my pet sitting started as nannying for little humans. This naturally trickled into me caring for their pets too! I’ve now found myself here to expand my services to the greater Chicagoland. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including animals with specialized medical and behavioral needs. My experience includes providing daily care and monitoring for cats with diabetes, such as administering medications, tracking dietary requirements, and recognizing changes in health or behavior. In addition to medical care, I am experienced in working with dogs of different temperaments, including those who may be shy, anxious, reactive, or strong-willed. I focus on building trust through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement techniques. I have also trained dogs in foundational obedience skills, including sit, stay, heel, paw, and proper leash-walking manners. My schedule allows me to accommodate feeding routines, medication administration, exercise needs, potty breaks, and plenty of companionship. Also, LOTS OF TIME FOR PLAYING!! (: I try my best to keep pets on their everyday schedule to help them feel grounded in their owners absence. I’m happy to adjust to what that looks like for them specifically- walks to the park, sunbathing in the yard, or greeting the mailman every day.
“Jamie was awesome with our dog! She’s extremely detail oriented, conscientious, timely and really oriented around his well being. We’d love to have her help again in the future!”

Amazing, simply amazing! Maria really knows dogs well, and I'm very comfortable with our dog in her care since she knows how to handle him with his prong collar. He's a great walker, but needs to stay away from other dogs on the path! She's the perfect dog walker if you ask me!
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!
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 O'Hare on Rover is $11.1 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 13,127 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across O'Hare. 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 O'Hare. 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 O'Hare.

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 O'Hare. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
