“Sarah was an amazing dog walker! She came prior to come meet my pup and I. She took notes while I was explaining directions. I loved the update I received after the walk. Can’t wait to book with her in the future!”
About: Hello! My name is Carlee, I’m 26, and I’m offering home visits and dog walking in Arlington Heights and it’s surrounding neighborhoods! I’ve had a passion for wildlife since childhood, and I’ve cared for all sorts of animals from hamsters to horses. I’ve been around dogs of all ages and sizes, but I have the strongest experience with adults/seniors and small dogs. My childhood dog was a mini dachshund who developed dementia and mobility issues in her old age; I was an adult by then and took much care of her. I often pet-sit or do home visits for my family and friends, but this will be my first time using a company like Rover to meet new people and animals! My years of experience reflect my pet-care experience in adulthood. Looking forward to getting to know you and your pets :) I have fairly open availability as I'm currently working part time. I do have a couple established dogs I walk weekly, but it shouldn't be hard to fit someone new into my schedule! I can stop by just to feed your pet and/or let them go potty, take them for a walk, play with and accompany them for a time, or do a combination of these. I can stay with your pet as long as necessary.
“Our dog, Maggie, loves Shannon! We have a high energy lab mix puppy who was having a tough time being alone for long. A weight has been lifted off our shoulders as Shannon comes to visit and walk Maggie. Shannon is reliable and super communicative! We get pictures every time along with a little summary of her visit. We feel like we the jackpot with Shannon!”
About: I currently have 2 dogs of my own, so I understand the joy it brings dogs to go on walks and experience all the smells throughout the neighborhood. I also know that dogs are part of the family (my dogs are my children just like my human children), so I take this role very seriously. I work full time, but am available most weekends at some point during the days and evenings. Can also be available some weekday evenings as well. I take great care to follow the family's instructions with feeding, walking, and playing. My own dogs get 3 walks a day plus some play time.
“I really appreciate Kelly! She took great care of my yellow lab! She gave him a good long walk, fed him and gave him his medication. It’s very reassuring to know he’s in good hands of a dog lover.”
“Carl really has a lot of patience. My Emma girl is a very stressed out dog. Hope in time she loosens up and Carl becomes her best friend… of course after her Mamma. Thank you Carl for giving her love and attention.”
About: I have had a dog since I was 5, and have been caring for him since he was a puppy through to adulthood and elderly age. I've also housed and cared for three dogs at once for months at a time, all varying breeds and ages and sizes. Additionally, I worked in animal husbandry in a professional setting at my university. I’m currently working part-time, and have the most availability on weekdays! I’m free all day on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. On Wednesdays I’m typically free in the afternoon and evening. I love being outdoors whenever possible, and am more than happy to take your dog on long walks! I’m a very detailed person who always gets the job done, and your pet’s safety is my utmost priority. I can feed, play with, take outside, clean up accidents, or just keep your pet company for hours at a time.
“I can't say enough about how reliable and friendly Evelyn is. She has been walking our dog for months now and has never missed a walk. She is extremely dependable and very very easy to work with. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking!!”
“Hannah is truly wonderful! During the meet and greet she was so attentive and loving with our pup! She is detailed and truly honors pet owner wishes. Cooper loves Hannah and coming home to a tired pup feast great! She gave him a really good walk and we are so appreciative! Easy to communicate with and she does a great job keeping you in the loop with updates. Highly recommend her and we will for sure be requesting her again”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about 10. I have had a big and small dog in my life. I have walked, play dates, overnight watched with other people's cats or dogs. I have also fostered 3 dogs in the past who have been adopted into loving homes. I am currently a stay at home mom. We take pups for walks. We love them like they are our own pets. We make sure that the pups have a lot of playtime inside or outside to keep them engaged. I have a fenced yard for all the running and zoomies your pet needs. I have a walk in shower and tub if needed. I also have baby gates if needed.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and know how much love and responsibility they need. Back in middle school, I started my own dog walking business and cared for everything from big Bernese Mountain Dogs to little Shih Tzus. I’m patient, reliable, and love spending time with dogs—whether it’s going for a walk, playing fetch, or just giving them some extra attention. Right now I’m job hunting, so I’m free Monday through Thursday any time of the day. Once I do start working, I’ll still be available most evenings when needed! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting them at yours, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I follow their regular routines for feeding, walks, or playtime, and I give them plenty of attention and affection. I keep their space clean and comfortable—whether it’s making sure dogs get bathroom breaks or keeping litter boxes tidy for cats. I also send updates or photos so owners know their pets are doing well. Every pet gets the care they need based on their personality and routine, and I treat them like they’re my own!
About: Hi, I have a lot of experience taking care of pets. I have a family dog in Minnesota that I’ve cared for since he was a puppy. I trained him to signal when he needs to go outside by sitting near the door and have walked him year-round, even through cold Minnesota winters. So if it’s chilly here in the South, I’m still happy to take your dog for a walk! I also have my own cat, Kakashi (KK for short), who I’ve cared for for over a year. Between raising my dog and caring for my cat, I’ve gained years of experience with both dogs and cats. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own! I work full-time Monday through Friday (8 a.m.–5 p.m.), so I’m mainly available in the evenings after 5 and on the weekends (Saturdays after 11 A.M and Sunday after 12 P.M) I live in a gated, pet-friendly apartment community. My apartment is very open and spacious, giving pets plenty of room to play and relax. The neighborhood has safe sidewalks and walking paths—perfect for daily walks. If I’m caring for a cat, I can easily separate them from my own cat, Kakashi (KK), and slowly help them warm up to each other if needed. It’s a calm, clean, and comfortable space where your pet will feel at home.
“I thought I just left a review but just in case it didn't get processed I'll say it again thank you for for walking Penelope on such short notice she normally is shy at first when meeting new people she took to you as if she's known you for some time that's always a good sign thank you once again.”

Kace did a great job as our dog walker. She communicated well throughout and followed all instructions exactly as given. She handled both of my dogs with no issues, including my larger pitbull, which I really appreciated. She also made sure they were fed, had fresh water, and were well taken care of. Everything went smoothly and I felt confident leaving them in her care. I would definitely recommend Kace for future walks.
We had a wonderful experience with Alina. She’s professional, thorough and handled our dog Nitchky’s routine perfectly. We really appreciate the detailed report cards after each visit. She genuinely cares about the pets she’s watching. We will definitely be using her services again and highly recommend.
Lois was so great with Pepper! She has been reliable, and we have been very happy with how sweet and caring she is with our dog. We were also very impressed with how prepared she came to our meet and greet—she had all of the right questions prepared to ask us. It is very clear that she is a dog lover. We feel great knowing that Pepper has some company to visit her during the day.
Sophia is a fantastic dog caregiver! She was so attentive to our senior dog who be anxious and has her quirks. Sophia was on time with every visit and so communicative. It was reassuring to know how well our dog was being cared for. We would definitely recommend her and plan to hire her again.
Thank you so much for your flexibility & accommodating my last minute request before my trip! I truly felt no worries while you were walking them, and knew each day they would get their exercise and go to the bathroom on their walks which gave me such relief. Wonderful to work with, will absolutely book again in the future with Oriana!! She is the best and I could tell my dogs loved her and felt comfortable with her!
Alana waa so amazing and our dogs absolutely loved her. We've never used a service before but are so happy we found Alana!!! She completely took care of our pups from feedings to letting them out. Looking forward to being able to go out again and not worry so much about them!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Rolling Meadows on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 Rolling Meadows. 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 Rolling Meadows.

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 Rolling Meadows. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
