FANTASTIC! Thrilled to see in our first meeting how she controls and trains during the walk which is much needed for my very excited pup. Tabitha has been a great communicator & timely. Great pics and walk recaps. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I've already booked her for more walks.

Fiona’s first outing with Valerie went really well. Fiona got good exercise and Valerie worked with her on manners and over reactivity. Valerie gave us good feed back and videos. We will continue with Valeria and look forward to Fiona’s progress.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, which led me to study veterinary technology at the University of Wisconsin River Falls. In recent years, I’ve worked full-time in both primary and emergency veterinary clinics, gaining hands on experience in roles ranging from receptionist to veterinary assistant. This background has given me a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. I’m comfortable working with all types of dogs whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and anxious, stubborn, or even reactive. I also have experience handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages, including those who need extra patience and care. I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, while also reassuring you that your family member is safe and healthy. Pet care fits well into my routine as a full-time student at the University of Wisconsin–River Falls with a flexible schedule. During the school year, I’m mostly available afternoons and evenings, and after mid-May I’ll be more open, with a part-time job that varies week to week. I have reliable transportation and am open to overnight care, with occasional early mornings if needed. I prefer advance notice but will do my best to accommodate last minute requests. I tailor my time with each pet based on their needs to make sure they feel comfortable and fully cared for. I believe that care should be based of each pet or families needs. I plan to try and keep the pets routine as similar to what they have now as possible. I don’t want them to be confused. I would prefer to go based off the pets needs. Whether walking for 30 mins or giving medications and snuggling. I am willing to even take your canine to a dog park of choice as long as I had selected papers for vaccine information.

About: I’ve spent years caring for my own pets, ensuring they’re happy and healthy. I’ve looked after my grandma's cat multiple times and other puppies and kitties for friends. I stand out from other sitters because of my deep passion for animals and my hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs. I love to give extensive play-times when possible, and lots of pets! Whether it’s administering medication for senior pets or providing a nurturing environment for lonely kitties, I’m committed to giving your furry friends the best care possible. I'm currently working part-time as well as attending university, so my schedule may be busy, but I am more than willing to work around it to accommodate for proper pet care. My Sundays are always open and Fridays are usually open as well. Let's work something out! I live in a safe, well-secured apartment complex beside a golf course, so plenty of room to give walks if needed. I also have two kitties with separate rooms, based on if your furry friend needs company or just some alone time! I am committed to ensuring that every pet is happy and healthy and feels safe in its environment.

About: I've had pets (dogs of all sizes, cats, fish) since I was 7. I currently have a dog of my own. I've trained her. I am always happy to watch, play, feed, bathe, and walk dogs. I am a stay-at-home dog owner, which means taking care of your dog is my main priority! Doggy day care and boarding is always available. I usually accept all dogs. I only refuse service if the dog has previously bit me and/or continued aggression. I have one very friendly female dog (spayed) who loves to make new friends and spend time with old ones. I keep dogs typically in the living area, uncaged. I only cage dogs if the owner requests it, and in a different room from the other dogs. I do have another helper (my fiance), as he also enjoys dogs very much. My walking route is usually around Glen Park, I change it up as needed to boost the adventure for your dog(s). **Water will ALWAYS be available and replenished for your dog(s). Food schedule based.**

About: I've grown up with dogs and have hands on experience caring for all ages, from puppies to senior pets. I’ve done puppy sitting for friends, currently volunteer with Coco’s Heart Dog Rescue, and previously volunteered at the local Humane Society. As a pre-vet student at UW-River Falls, I’m passionate about animal care and always provide safe, loving attention to every pet I meet. I also trained 4 service dogs through the FETCH program through Can Do Canines for one year. I also work at Bobtwon Pet Clinic, which has given me experience with veterinary care for the last year. As a college student, I’m excited to fit in walks and drop-ins between classes or after classes, and I’m also available on Saturdays for a couple of visits or walks. I have another job other than walking dogs and doing check-ins, so I work around those hours as well. I’m happy to care for dogs and cats for drop-ins or on walks, no matter their age—always making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: Although I have minimal experience with pet care, I’ve been around animals my entire life. I’ve grown up with multiple dogs and cats in the house. I absolutely love pets and take pride in the patience and gentleness that I’ve been blessed with. I always show the absolute most love that I can to pets. I’ve also lived on farms for the majority of my life with animals like cows, horses, chickens, and even donkeys. All being said, I love animals and will give nothing but that love to yours! I currently work part time, giving me plenty of time to spend time with your pets and give them the attention they need. I live in town and work In the area, making for easy transportation to your house when needed. This doesn’t stop me however from traveling further out if you live further away! Every where I go, I go with the mindset of leaving it better than I left it. I am careful with my surroundings, and always make certain to keep everyone out of danger and trouble.

About: Growing up, my family has always had pets, so I’ve been around animals my whole life. We’ve also done in-home dog sitting for the past 10 years and have fostered numerous dogs and cats through Lucky Paws Rescue for about 8 years. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and sizes, from puppies to seniors and small to large dogs. I also have experience fostering paralyzed dogs and caring for animals with medical needs, including diabetic pets and those requiring medications. PLEASE READ! I’m a busy college student so these are the times I’m available for drop-in’s and dog walking. Sunday 8am-5pm, Monday 8am-12pm and 2pm-8pm, Tuesday 1pm-3pm, Wednesday 2pm-5pm, Thursday 1pm-8pm, Friday 2pm-8pm, Saturday 8am-8pm. I love pets with all my heart! My dogs at home have the option of leash walking and a fenced in yard, both work very well for them. While pet sitting and fostering I’ve had to handle all sorts of dogs while leash walking; the ones that chew the leash, tug, and the easier the ones, but I love them all! Every pet I visit will be treated with love, care, and patience.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since even a young age. I was 11 years old when I got my own dog to take care of as well as raise. I’ve been hooked with animals majority of my life and love them all. They are family and I treasure as well as treat them like family. I do understand medical needs so if your pet needs special medicine I have no problem working with them. I am diligent and able to administer medication as well as go on walks or anything else you need for your pet. I also love to send updates of how the fur babies are doing. 😊 I live on a farm with a fenced in dog pen available. I also have 2 friendly dogs that play well with fur babies. However, I do understand the concerns of meeting new pets and have crates for my dogs to go to for separation if requested.

About: I have a deep love for animals that has been with me since childhood. I am currently in the process of establishing my own animal foster care facility, catering to all kinds and breeds. It is my dream to provide peace of mind to families in need of care for their pets while they are away on business or vacation. I believe in ensuring that all pets are properly cared for, loved, and happy. I am dedicated to giving as much love as possible to all the little creatures in my care. I make sure that my own pet has plenty of adventure and companionship for a healthy and fulfilling life. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. 🩷🙌🏼 I am available to care for your pets on weekends as needed! Short term visits and long term visits for a Friday to Sunday if needed. I have two small dogs who are extremely friendly! I can also travel to your home as needed and stay with your pets from a Friday to Sunday. I can help on weekdays for drop-in visits…. However, I do not get done with work until 4pm. My two pups enjoy seeing new parks and love their hiking adventures - when they aren’t doing that, they are cuddling up at home with each other. I can help take care of your pets to your desired schedule / routine for them.

FAQs for Dog Walking - River Falls

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in River Falls on Rover is $22.2 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 3,837 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across River Falls. 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 River Falls. 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 River Falls.

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 River Falls. On Rover:

  • 92% 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.
