About: I’m fortunate to have experience with a wide variety of animals thanks to my cousins, who have two cats, three dogs, a turtle, and a horse. I help care for their pets regularly, so I’m comfortable meeting the unique needs of animals of all kinds and treating each one like family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently finishing up breast cancer treatment and have intentionally chosen pet sitting as my primary work. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and being able to provide reliable, loving care while I’m in this season of life has been incredibly rewarding. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. At my home, pets have access to a securely fenced backyard for supervised play, exercise, and potty breaks, along with plenty of attention, affection, and a comfortable place to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other care instructions. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.
About: I have two dogs of my own, both American Bullies, and I’ve grown up around dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to beloved seniors. I have experience with all stages of a dog’s life and understand how important it is to keep them happy, active, and engaged. I make sure every fur baby gets plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime so they’re never bored or feeling neglected. Most importantly, I want both the pups and their parents to feel comfortable, happy, and completely satisfied with their care! 🐾❤️ I currently work at Silver Stallion Ranch, where I help with pony parties and petting zoos. While my schedule can vary depending on scheduled events, I’m flexible and will always make time to give your furry friends the attention, care, and exercise they need. I’ll work with your schedule to make sure your pets are well cared for, happy, and never feel neglected! I let my two dogs out every morning and throughout the day, and I feed them in the morning and evening to help maintain a healthy weight. I also make sure to spend plenty of quality time with my fur babies whenever I can. Whatever routine and schedule you have established for your dogs, I’m happy to follow it! I understand that consistency is important, and I’ll make sure your pups’ normal routine is maintained while they’re in my care.
About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of animals, I recently got a puppy and her training at home has been going great, I’ve taken care of many different breeds and ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I work for family part time and stay at home for the time being, I’m available for walks or potty breaks anytime during the week between 8am and 5pm When dealing with my own dogs potty breaks look like all of us going out at once, I don’t tend to leave dogs unsupervised unless told to do so, I love taking my dogs for walks and playing outside so good long walks are surely in store for your pups as well.

About: Hi my name is Asia. I’m really excited to have extra income but I’m more in it for the loving animals. Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets to care for. I have two bearded dragons, two cats, one dog, and one fish. In the mornings I go to the gym and after I’m pretty much open throughout the day until school starts, which is in the beginning of January. Feeding and watering animals,Playing with them and keeping them company, Walking the dogs, Grooming and brushing the animals' coats, Changing the cat's litter box, Providing health care if necessary. Giving them affection, so they don't feel abandoned after their owner leaves.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is I’ve taken care of pets from 0 years old to 16, multiple pets at a time, from cats to dogs to hamsters, and I love to do so more than anything. If you’re looking for someone to give your loved one some company, tire out an energetic puppy before you get home from work, or just plain old pet care, I’m your guy. I can take care of your pet part time, based on your needs! I can do frequent check ins and walks through out the day, stay for extended periods of time, or even house sit. My only off time is I currently work 11-7 on Saturdays and Sundays. I have a fenced, open yard with plenty of room for your pup to enjoy. I can also offer them enrichment with toys, treats, and another playful, well behaved pup who lives right upstairs.
About: I have lots of animals and lots of love. I am great with all animals and even insects, reptiles and more. I am local to Crete, Illinois. I work a remote job, full-time job, so I am extremely flexible with your needs. I take care of my cats bright and early and throughout the day. I practice proper training, obedience, proper health care, lots of love and more. I use this application to provide services and also book services for my pets as well, so I expect my care provider to give the same top notch care for my fur babies.
About: I was always had furry siblings but have graduated to a cat mama. I enjoy creating personal heavens for our companions. Reliable, punctual and kind. I have a full-time job that pays the bills but I am looking for ways to feed my soul. Overnights are great as well as drop ins. I would prefer to host at client's homes as my current home does not allow dogs. Willing to board or take cats overnight. Let's make it a sleepover!
About: I love animals. I have owned a horse, birds and fish. Although I never owned a dog or cat, Friends and family have always asked me to pet sit and I have always been more than happy to ablige. As a former letter Carrier, my favorite customers were four-legged. I am retired and want to stay active. Who can keep you more fit and active than a dog that is waiting for a walk-date? When I have dog sat, I usually go for multiple walks. I can walk all day. The dogs love it and it makes them tired. Animals need mental stimulation outside of their house or yard just like people. I try to find things to keep us both busy and happy.
“Tasha is very responsible and reliable. I appreciate her communication. She sends pics and I really like the map of the dogs walks. She is respectful of my requests and my home.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a while, i love dogs and they love me as well! I love dogs so much and they are so sweet!

I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have a side porch that is fenced and I do have a crate if your pup needs to go in!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 10,874 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Park Forest. 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 Park Forest. 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 Park Forest.
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 Park Forest. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
