About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I enjoy spending time with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s going for walks, playing, sticking to feeding schedules, or simply keeping them company. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, because I have a pet of my own. I’ll always treat them with the same care and respect I treat my own. I’m reliable, communicative - I work two customer service jobs - and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently working part time, so I’m available in the afternoons most of the time, and I’m very flexible with times and days. I like to feel active and take dogs on walks because it’s a great activity for all parties involved! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my absolute top priorities. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! I love sending photo and video updates throughout the day so you always know your pet is having a blast and is in great hands!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and have been trusted by family, friends, and neighbors to provide reliable, loving care while they’re away. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or spending time keeping your pet company, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Until September, I’m available for bookings on both weekdays and weekends! Beginning in the fall, I’ll be attending classes all day on Tuesdays and Thursdays, in addition to working another part-time job. Whenever possible, I appreciate booking requests being made in advance so I can plan around my schedule and provide the best possible care for every pet. While I may still be able to accommodate last-minute requests, advance notice is always appreciated. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Emily was so wonderful! She was extremely responsive when I contacted her and came over immediately to meet our precious Ezra! She arrived promptly and sent me reports and pictures of her visit. I would highly recommend Emily! I will be using her again for sure!!! Thank you Emily, you made my time away stress free!!”
“Shelby was fantastic. She walked my dog four days in a row while I was working. My dog liked her from the moment they met and she did a great job! I will be asking her to walk my dog again soon.”
“Tyler was very responsive during the booking process. He arrived on time both days to pick up our dog for walks and returned when expected. All in all a great experience.”
“I can't recommend Ashley enough as a dog walker! She has been walking my golden retriever, Molly, regularly for a couple of months now, and I couldn't be happier with her services. Ashley is incredibly reliable and always shows up on time, which gives me peace of mind during my busy days. Not only is she friendly and approachable, but her genuine love for dogs truly shines through in her interactions with Molly. It’s clear that she goes above and beyond to make sure Molly is happy and well-cared for during their walks. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy and has a real passion for dogs, look no further than Ashley! She’s fantastic, and I’m so grateful to have her!”
“Wow! I am seriously impressed with Hannah. She jived well with my dog Xander, has been just a hero in a situation where I desperately needed someone to watch Xander while I took his sister to puppy class. She was on time and had no problem with the full hour. I picked up a very contented Xander. I would highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and compassionate pet sitter with hands on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. During high school, I worked at an animal hospital where I learned about animal behavior, handling techniques, and the importance of providing attentive, individualized care. In addition to my experience, I’ve cared for many dogs and cats through pet sitting and understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a senior companion, or anything in between, I’m committed to treating them like family. Because I work from home, I have the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and regular updates throughout the day. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving loving, reliable care in a safe environment. I work from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Because I’m home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, meals, and attention. I can also easily accommodate your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves individualized care based on their personality and routine. I take the time to get to know each pet so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure their needs are met. I follow all feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, keep litter boxes and living areas clean, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own.
“Couldn’t have asked for a better walker. He fit Logan into his busy schedule which meant a lot to me. I have tendinitis so I can’t walk my dog right now so trying to find someone to walk him in such short notice wasn’t easy. Definitely a life saver!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for 9+ years. I currently have 4 dogs in my home and 2 cats. I take them on walks, give them baths and feed them! I am currently working part time and in school so I will have enough time to watch your pets or stop in! I also do clinical rotations at henry ford so I can definitely work around any schedule that would work for us both! I have a huge yard for your furry friends to play in and I have furry friends also that they can play with if you are comfortable. If not I totally understand and can keep them separated! I can also keep them in the crate if that is what you feel comfortable with also! Anything to keep you and your furry friend happy!!
“Kira has been so fantastic with Doug, The Cooper, and Moshi. We could not be more pleased. She uses the Rover app to let us know when she arrives, how long Doug is on his walk, his “action” and the photos are priceless. We will continue to use her as long as possible. A+”
“Very professional! She always arrived on time, gave them good long walks, took pics of their walks, she was even kind to let me know about their bowel movements and health state when applicable, both doggies always returned happy and exercised and looked like they both enjoyed a lot their walks with Gabriela. Highly recommend her a lot!!”
“Frankie (9 month Pitbull) has recently started going on weekly walks with Kristina and he is a big fan! I love watching how excited he gets to see her. She is very trustworthy, sweet, attentive, and so much fun. Frankie is a big ball of energy and a mischief maker but Kristina does so well with him. Frankie and I highly recommend her :)”
About: I currently own an pit lab mix and her name is Stella and I have had her for a few years. She is the best especially around people and I love taking her to new places. I love being around dogs, any breed or size . I Love taking walks and enjoying the outdoors. I like to explore new areas and it’s always nice to have a friend while doing it. If you have a high energy dog I would love to play with them, but also dogs that just like to chill and cuddle I enjoy as well. I can walk your dog on weekends and during the evening during the week, mid day as well. I would love to become a dog walker or sitter to get to know more about other breeds and to get to know my area I do have another full time job, but I am willing to accommodate to your pets needs. We can discuss this further when booking. I am able to have decently flexible schedule. I will listen to the needs of the client. I will make sure that their pet is well loved and cared for while I am watching them.
About: I have been around pets since I was little, cats, dogs, and fish! They have shaped me into who I am I will make sure to treat your pets like mine! I currently have two pets, 2 cats (Izumi, Amara) and live with my sister and her dog, a chihuahua mix. I would love to do a meet and greet with you to establish trust that your pets will be safe and sound while you are away :) For overnight visits you will get a detailed nightly update just to comfort you while you're away from your fur babies. I am currently working minimal hours at a pet store and focusing on going back to school, so my schedule is very flexible, so I can devote as much time as your pet needs. To establish trust I want to do a meet and greet with you before you head out (unless its last minute for a walk). Anytime you want, you can request pictures or an update on how your pupper or kitty is doing. I will still send you a detailed nightly update at the end of the day so you know how your pet is doing.
About: My husband and I have 2 daughters who grew up with 2 dogs. We’ve had the dogs for most of their lives but unfortunately are not with us anymore. Our girls were really good with our previous dogs and had no problems before. We do miss having dogs in the house, and would love to help you out when in need. My husband has 20 years of exotic animal experience and grew up with dogs all of his life. We are a smoke free home, and have an unfenced yard. We do work full time, but everyday one of us is always home. We would love to take your dog for walks and would treat them like our own family as we know how important pets are. We hope you consider us in caring for your furry loved ones.
“So happy to have found the Rover app, and Emily Z! I normally work from home most days, so when I went on vacation I worried about my dog being cooped up all day while the rest of the family was at work/school. This was perfect to get her some exercise and a bathroom break! Emily was prompt and professional with all communication. I enjoyed the “report card” after each walk. I hope to use the service again soon and would definitely recommend Emily to anyone!”

Rebecca really helped calm my dog mom nerves. We are a travel baseball family and are gone all day long most weekends, and I hate leaving my dog for so long. She came by and took my dog for a walk, fed him, and played with him. She was super flexible with my unknown schedule and times, and so easy to communicate with. I could tell I made a good choice within just a few minutes of meeting her! I’ve definitely found someone who I trust to come take care of my boy while I’m out!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Rochester Hills 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 3,506 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rochester Hills. 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 Rochester Hills. 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 Rochester Hills.

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 Rochester Hills. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
