“Chloe was very professional and scheduled a meeting prior to taking care of our senior Yorkie. She walked him several times a day for three days. She was on time for every walk and he was well taken care of. Thank you Chloe!!!”
“Florian is the best! My pups love him and look forward to seeing him. It gives us peace of mind knowing someone like Florian is there to care for our pups while we are away! Highly recommended and pup approved!”
About: I've been a lifelong dog lover and currently have a Golden Retriever/Irish Setter who keeps me active with plenty of walks, playtime, and adventures. Caring for my own high energy dog has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and giving each dog the attention they deserve. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, fetch, or simply having a companion nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide the same level of care and affection I'd want for my own pet :) I currently work part-time on some weekends in Huntley, IL (Friday–Sunday), but I’m generally very flexible and available during the week! I just ask for a few days’ notice whenever possible so I can make sure I’m able to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. 😊 I’d also love to set up a meet & greet with you and your fur baby before our first visit! It’s a great opportunity for us to get acquainted, learn about your pet’s personality and routine, and make sure they feel comfortable with me. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. While I do have a spacious corner lot with a secure tie-out area for supervised outdoor time, the majority of my services take place in your home where your pet is most comfortable and can maintain their normal routine. During walks and drop-in visits, I'll follow all care instructions closely, ensure your pet has fresh water, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands.
About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was 10 dogs, cats, horses!! I have 5 Siberian huskies myself! I love and adore taking care of animals! Always treat them like they’re my own! Right now I’m pretty much available all day. I can do overnights during the week and weekends, dog walking, stopping in for check ins! I have a fully enclosed backyard I have other dogs to keep company. If not I can always stay with your animal at their home where there are comfortable in they’re familiar environment!
About: I am the definition of an animal lover, which I attribute to having had animals around my entire life. I grew up with Australian shepherds, German shepherds, cats, hamsters, and even tarantulas! I am extremely comfortable walking dogs, giving them medication via food, and managing when to let them out to go to the bathroom. I’m also willing to give a big furry dog a good brush if they need it! I have lived primarily with big dogs, but have had close relationships with small dogs through friends and my husband’s family whom I have dog sat for in the past. In addition, I am a massive cat lover. I was given a kitten when I was 8 years old and had her for 19 years until she just recently passed. In her senior years, she had both hypothyroidism and asthma so I am well-versed in giving cats inhalers and medication in various forms (via dropper, ear application, in treats, and in food). I am a dependable dog and cat sitter/caretaker because I know how much your animal means to you. I’m an extremely organized person so you can count on me to be reliable with pick-up, drop-off, and everything in between. Taking care of your animal would not be a job to me because I am so happy to do it! I work all day Tuesday and Thursday and the occasional Monday, Wednesday or Friday depending on when I am scheduled (only 4 hours shifts on those days) so I could watch an animal full time during three weekdays in addition to weekends. I am still more than willing to watch an animal for an entire week and either modify my work schedule to be with them more, or just make sure they are set up for the days I am in office. I have a non-smoking home with one cat and two people including myself. My home would be an extremely relaxing environment for a pet and due to my flexible schedule, I can dedicate nearly full-time care to an animal. Since I have a cat, I would only really be able to have dogs stay overnight for a couple-day stint since I'd prefer to keep them separate. In my client's home I would offer the same care in addition to respecting the environment. I'm naturally a very clean person and always pick up after myself.
About: As a retired U.S. Navy Senior Chief, I bring reliability, patience, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. I know every dog has a different personality, and I take the time to earn their trust while keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I'm an experienced dog owner and understand everything from energetic puppies that need structure and exercise to older dogs that benefit from a slower pace and extra patience. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with company, I'll tailor my care to their needs and stick closely to your routine. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: to care for your dog the same way I'd want someone to care for my own. I'm retired from the U.S. Navy, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I build my day around their needs, whether that's morning walks, midday potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or evening visits. I enjoy being outdoors and staying active, so regular walks are something I genuinely look forward to. I also understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care and make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved every visit. I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs, while making sure your pet receives plenty of attention and affection. During walks and visits, safety is always my top priority. I use secure leashing practices, pay close attention to each dog's comfort and behavior, and never rush their time outside. I clean up after pets, keep fresh water available, and make sure they get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own. You'll receive regular updates and photos, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Absolutely great! I work a lot and I can’t express how grateful I am for Victoria! She helps me out soooo much and I feel very blessed that she looks after pup when I’m at the office.”
About: I’ve taken care of my dog, Leo, for the past 14 years. I love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages and would be so excited to spend time walking and playing with any dog! I have extensive experience caring for senior pets. I am a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. While looking for a full-time position, I am widely available for all your pet care needs! I can follow any care instructions provided for me to care for your pet. I’m comfortable walking, playing, watching, feeding, and much more with your dog.
About: I am DEFINITELY an animal person! I live a very active lifestyle so I am more than happy to go out and play with your pets, but also just as satisfied relaxing and cuddling! I have had dogs my entire life and think they truly are a mans' best friend. Growing up, I have taken care of the two dogs I have had (maltese and pitbull) a lot, as my parents have gone out of town for work. I have dog- and cat-sat on and off over the past 6 years so am very comfortable. I currently work remotely, so I have loads of flexibility to care for your pet! I enjoy being active so am more than happy to take the time to care for your pet! I take great pride in caring for your pet in your home! I am very respectful to the household, owners, and animals and am very tidy and follow the directions from the owners.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Prairie Grove
Brian has been a life saver for us! We had a complicated family emergency and Brian has been an invaluable and professional asset during this period. Brian has been such a great friend to Charlie, our dog. Charlie is so very excited when Brian comes, and since he's a big dog, we've really appreciative how well he responds to Brian. Brian has also been 100 percent reliable, extremely communicative, and very flexible. He has even helped my elderly mother bring in packages and other things that have become difficult for her. He's just a good human being! Brian is great with dogs and also with people. We so appreciate his help over the past several months.

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 Prairie Grove. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
