Steve was wonderful with Mac over the past few weeks. He took excellent care of him and paid close attention to Mac’s cues, helping him feel safe and happy during their walks. Mac was always happy to see Steve at the door—a sure sign he was having a fun time. Thanks again, Steve! :)

Neha was absolutely amazing! I had just moved to a new neighborhood and was looking for someone to give my miniature golden retriever, Leia, dinner, a walk, and some extra belly rubs. Unfortunately, I forgot to update my address in the Rover app, so Neha ended up driving all the way to my old house across the Twin Cities. When she arrived, she noticed that the house didn’t match the photos and instructions I had provided and kindly reached out to me. I was out of town and didn’t see her message for over 30 minutes. I was horrified when I realized my mistake, especially since I was hours away and couldn’t do anything to help. Neha could not have been more gracious and understanding. Despite the inconvenience that I caused, she generously offered to drive to my new home and still take care of Leia. She spent extra time with her, gave her dinner, took her for a walk, and made sure my princess got plenty of love and attention. I am incredibly grateful for Neha’s kindness, flexibility, and patience. She truly went above and beyond, and it meant so much to me. Leia was happy and well cared for, and I would absolutely choose Neha again in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and genuinely wonderful with pets!

About: I have several years of dog and house-sitting experience through word-of-mouth referrals, caring for pets during trips ranging from a few days to a week and a half. I strive to find what works for each pet as an individual. I have experience caring for elderly dogs, administering oral medication, and working with multiple pets. I’ve cared for a range of dogs—from picky eaters and nervous, anxious dogs that preferred a consistent schedule and energetic dogs with mischievous streaks. Working with such different dogs has helped me become flexible and responsive to a wide range of temperaments and care requirements. Past clients have repeatedly trusted me with their pets and homes, and many have returned for additional bookings. Through these experiences, I have followed detailed care instructions, monitored pets for changes in behavior, provided excercise and affection, maintained a safe environment, and communicated reliably with owners. This means that when a situation is worrisome, I will err on the side of caution as well as informing you. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away and for you to feel secure your pets are safe and in responsible, good hands. As a college student home for the summer, I’m currently working part-time, and my hours are somewhat inconsistent (with a trend towards more availability in the evenings), however taking time off would be no problem for me should it be required, given there’s sufficient advance notice. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always prioritize following any provided instructions and established routines. In this respect, I especially appreciate detailed care notes, as they help me provide the most consistent and personalized care possible. Every pet is different, and I believe clients know their pets best. At the same time, I use good judgment and common-sense safety practices to ensure pets remain safe, healthy, and comfortable while their parents are away. I am patient, attentive, and observant, and I make it a priority to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and needs. Whatever that means, I aim to adapt my care to what will help each pet feel most at ease. I also value staying in contact with pet parents throughout their time away, as much as their availability and preferences allow. Regular updates help provide peace of mind to everyone, and if any questions or unexpected situations arise, I can communicate promptly so clients stay informed and involved in decisions regarding their pet's care. My goal is to create a safe and familiar environment where pets can thrive and clients can feel confident that their pets and homes are being well cared for.

About: I have been dog and cat sitting for over 10yrs. I usually stay at the owners house. Experienced with dogs with medical issues, and high anxiety. I have given medications and have done some training. I have done just overnight stays, but have also done 3month long stays. I am also a Hairstylist and Skin care specialist. I rent a chair at a salon and make my own schedule, so my hours are flexable. I enjoy spending time with pets, but just don't live in a place were I can have one. I am not married and have no children, so I am completely available and focused on your pet. I usually like to meet you and your pet/pets about 1week before the scheduled appointment, so I can get to know you, your pet and your pets routine, feeding times, walking, medications if needed, etc. This also helps the dog recognize me when I show up, when you aren't there.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with a part of your family. As a dog owner myself, I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I have experience with puppies, crate training, leash walking, feeding schedules, basic commands, tricks, and providing lots of exercise and attention. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind during your time apart. My goal is simple: give your dog a fun, safe experience and give you confidence that they’re in good hands. I especially enjoy working with puppies and high-energy dogs and understand the importance of consistency, structure, and positive reinforcement. Dogs are already a big part of my daily routine. As a dog owner, my schedule is built around walks, training, playtime, feeding routines, and providing consistent care. I’m actively pursuing opportunities in the dog care and training field, so I genuinely enjoy spending time working with dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, reinforcement of good habits, or a structured routine while you’re away, I’m committed to providing attentive and reliable care. Safety, structure, and positive experiences are my top priorities. I’m currently expanding my knowledge in dog behavior and training with the goal of building a career in the dog care industry. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, triggers, and training goals so I can provide consistent care that matches what they’re used to at home. As a dog owner and someone interested in dog training, I believe in positive reinforcement, patience, and clear communication. I closely supervise dogs during walks, playtime, and interactions, and I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic care, and using crates when requested. I also provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident their dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: Hi. My name is Carrie. I love all kind of animals. I have 2 cats right now. I used to have a hampster. I grew up having rodents. I never owned a dog but i sure love them. I used to live with a couple of dogs in thr past but they wasn't mine. I used help take the dogs for walks though and fed them as if they was my own dogs. I love walking them. I love playing with them. Like balls, freezbie. I live in a apartment building and am only allowed to have to pets that live me anyways. I can however babysit as many as pets like other cats or even dogs as i want. There is no rule on that. I just love animals all together. So feel free to message me if you are interested P.S. Just so you know I can't drive but I take metro mobility. I hope that is not a problem. Also, I have found out that i can't have anymore animals that aren't mine so I would have to travel to the Guest's house to watch their pets. I hope that is fine with everyone. I love cats and offer cat sitting as well as dog sitting! I’m happy to stay at your house or visit your kitty while you’re away.

We cannot thank Lindsay enough for taking such wonderful care of our dog while we were away! It’s always hard to leave our pup, but Lindsay gave us total peace of mind by sending daily photos and updates. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog who clearly loved Lindsay. If you are looking for a reliable, attentive, and loving pet sitter, she is the best. We will definitely be booking her again!

About: Hi, my name is Annalyse and I am 21 years old. I grew up around lots of animals, including dogs, so I have plenty of experience, and I can’t wait to help you and your furry friend!! I can do a variety of services and am willing to do same day services when I am able!! I currently work for the city of Chanhassen as a park camp leader, and pet sitting is just a fun side job!! I am looking forward to pet sitting in my free time, but it is not my main job, however I hope to provide quality care to you and your pets!! All pets need different levels and types of care, but all deserve love. I am willing to do any service except for boarding, as my current home does not allow dogs. I can do house sitting as well as over night stays, however I would request a meetup prior to either of those services to get to know you guys!!

I have a large fenced in yard and a two year old female golden retriever named Berkley! She’s so mellow but loves to play with new friends. We spend lots of time socializing and going on adventures.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was born! I’ve grown up with labs and yorkies, my extended family has had bulldogs, Great Danes and cavillier King Charles dogs! I live in a small town and love to be active and miss having a furry friend around! My schedule doesn’t allow me to have a dog as I travel for work, but I have a lot of free time throughout the week that I would love to make the most of with your best furry friend(s)! I work a job with odd hours and a flexible schedule but I do travel quite a bit. I obviously won’t be taking clients when I will be away, but I would like to utilize my free time to be able to help those who need services for their dogs and also get to spend time with them! I grew up with dogs and not having one is out of my norm- but responsible until I get my own yard! I am comfortable traveling anywhere to watch your pet, or we could chat about certain circumstances to make it happen! I live in a smaller apartment with no yard so I won’t be able to have dogs at my place

About: I have always loved animals, whether it be a mouse or a horse. I also love to help people out, especially with dogs and cats. I’ve babysat one dog long-term (about 6 months), and I have been babysitting the same dog for about 2 years, since he was a 8 week old puppy. I also had a dog who passed away a few years ago, and had to take care of her in her senior years and help her get up as she had hip problems. In between dog-sitting, I did babysit dogs for a week, and usually wouldn’t mix dogs unless owners were okay with it. (these owners were from my work or teachers from my high school). I am currently attending college in Duluth. However, I do come home quite a bit Fridays-Mondays. In the summer, I will be very flexible though! I take dogs out on leashes as it makes me feel most comfortable but fenced in yards while watching the dog also makes me feel comfy as well.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Orono

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Orono on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,476 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Orono. 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 Orono. 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 Orono.

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 Orono. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
