About: I've taken care of a variety of mammals (including dogs and cats) my whole life. I am a recent graduate of veterinary school looking to grow in the veterinary industry by getting as much experience as possible with all kinds of animals. Who doesn't want a pet sitter who has veterinary experience. Not only do I know you're friends' needs, I am able to address any medical concerns that you may have. I am unable to do boarding at my own home at this time, but I have plenty of time throughout the week with any kind of service you need. Including overnight stays. ** I provide a complimentary grooming and nail trim if wanted with EVERY visit!! I am comfortable working in any kind of home that you have, I can guarantee you will be satisfied with how well I work with your furry friend.
“Elizabeth has been super clutch for me and even let me book an additional day last minute! I hope to make her my reoccuring dog walker. She is very attentive, responds very promptly and my dog seems to enjoy her. She has even sent me pictures of my dog to reassure me he is doing great (since he is a newer rescue). Thank you Elizabeth!!!!”
“Audra walked my 2 dogs for 3 weeks while I was out. She was good with communicating and sending additional pictures when I requested it. We had some issue with the route tracker but besides that everything was amazing.”
About: i’ve always had a dog growing up and still have 2 of my own that i take care of. i’m very good at training dogs simple commands (sit, down, etc.) and am very patient with dogs. I work full time right now but am looking to spend time with more fur babies on my free time. My schedule isn’t linear so my availability is a little all over the place, but it never hurts to ask if i can do a job !!! For my two pets i feed them twice a day morning and night. I take them for walks and also spend time playing with them and giving them attention. i always make sure to keep an eye on them so that they don’t hurt themselves or get into something bad.
About: I have grown up around all types of animals. It is my passion to care for them and make sure they feel loved. I go the extra mile to make sure everything is good! :) I am currently unemployed, so I have a lot of time to care for pets. Of course not 24/7 because I need to love and care for my Marty! But, my availability is pretty open. I don’t currently allow other pets to come into my home, but I am able to stop by your home, if needed to check on/feed the pets.
About: I was in veterinary assistant school from Junior to Senior year of high-school, earning my accredited veterinary assistant certificate. I cared for animals within my schools care and had to follows schedules and administer medication when applicable. I do want to emphasize that assisting is BARE MINIMUM veterinary information so I will not be able to diagnose/prognose any animals. I have pet sit for my sister and my friend while they are away on vacation, providing daily pictures along with that. I'm currently working a part-time job that has too many workers. I'm seeking another job that I know I will be efficient and good at while also enjoying in the mean time. I have plenty of times during my weeks and am willing and able to hangout with your pets for majority of my days :) Due to my short work schedule, I am able to provide care for your animal for majority of the day (depending on which days I work). Thankfully, I am never working a full day at my job so your pet will never be left alone for more than a couple hours during the day.
“Brendan is always awesome at helping out on short notice, my dog is always so excited to go on a run with him! It really helps out when I don’t have the time or energy to give her her exercise! Thank you Brendan your services are always appreciated!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life — from dogs and cats to birds and bunnies — and caring for them comes as naturally to me as breathing. Our home was always full of furry (and sometimes feathered!) friends, and that love has only grown over the years.

Whether they need extra playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll be there to accommodate their needs. Just let me know when you need me — I’m ready to help! I live in an apartment with my husband, our 2-year-old boy, and our dog who loves the company of other fur buddies! We have a dog park right inside our complex, perfect for safe, fun playtime and daily walks. It’s a calm, loving environment where your pet will feel right at home.

However I am able to come to your home or take them out to a park any time you need including overnights!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Peoria
Alyssa has helped me care for my Belgian Malinois female for over a year by providing mid-day walks. Alyssa is caring, compassionate, responsible and meticulous in going about her dog care responsibilities. She understands working dogs specifically Malinois’ and their unique breed characteristics. I am a Veterinarian (in public health) so I feel I am a good evaluator of people’s dog IQ’s and I rate Alyssa at the top of the hierarchy. She follows through with a text to me about every walk she completes. She is especially attentive if there is an issue with my dog that I am concerned about. Look no further if you need help with your dog. I completely trust her. Alyssa is awesome.
Blanca has provided excellent service, taking care of my boy, Buddy. She took time to bond with Vuddy during the meet and greet and takes him on nice walks. She really cares about Buddy and given me some pointers for having better walks when he is with me. I would recommend Blanca to walk and take care of any dog. Very good at what she does.
Linda did a great job walking Sadie. I had to change the time and she was flexible and was able to change it. She’s communicated with me and sent me a picture of my Sadie after the walk. It’s so nice to know that while I’m working Sadie still got her walk it. I trust Linda to walk Sadie again. She’s very responsible and Sadie loved her immediately.
Fantastic experience! She walked my dog for a full hour and even came prepared with her own harness, which I really appreciated. She was patient, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. My dog loved her and came back happy and relaxed. Definitely recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Peoria on Rover is $20 per walk (as of July 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 .

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 Peoria. 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 Peoria.

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 Peoria. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
