About: Hi! I’m a veteran with a few years of animal care experience, and I’m currently pursuing a degree in animal sciences with a focus on animal health and behavior. Caring for animals is an important part of my life, and I’m excited to continue building my knowledge through both school and hands-on experience. My goal is to provide thoughtful, dependable care while helping your pet feel safe and comfortable when you’re away. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and care instructions to give them individualized attention. Whether your pet enjoys active playtime or prefers quiet companionship, I’d love to get to know them and help you feel confident about their care! I’m an active person and a dog owner myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. I’m also a veteran, currently working from home while pursuing my degree full-time in animal sciences, with a focus on animal health and behavior. With a few years of animal care experience, I’m passionate about providing attentive, personalized care to every pet I meet. I have two dogs that are small and very polite. They are both neutered and spayed. For them the more the merrier. I couldn’t agree more. Your pets stay will be comfortable and active. I promise to make sure they are well taken care of and get lots of love and sunshine in their day

Spent several years working at an animal sancuary in Oklahoma, before moving back up north. I've loved animals my whole life, and believe in honesty, hard-work and showing kindness, to every living creature.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 4 years. I have experience with sick dogs and puppies, and I am also outdoorsy so if your dog needs walked I would love to do that! I am available from Monday morning through Sunday evening every week any time, and I am okay with short notice because I understand that that's how life works sometimes. So as long as there is an opening I can work with you! I am currently only taking appointments for caring for pets in the clients home. I can come by for playtime, feeding, walking, and letting dogs out to use the bathroom.
“Faith did an awesome job and our fur buddy loved her too!! She is clearly very knowledgeable about dealing with bigger dogs and what questions to ask. Very happy with her services and will definitely use her again!!”
About: I have a deep love for dogs of all breeds and would be thrilled to care for your furry friend while you’re away. With a lifetime of experience as a dog owner, I currently have three Airedales. Over the years, I’ve completed numerous obedience classes with my dogs, and I’m skilled at applying that knowledge to provide quality care. I’m experienced in raising puppies, including training basic commands, potty training, and leash walking. My one-year-old is even competing in dock diving and barn hunting, which highlights my commitment to providing enriching experiences for dogs. I also have extensive experience caring for senior dogs, as my 11-year-old pup requires regular medical attention. In addition, I’m skilled in bathing and grooming, having always groomed my own dogs. I even have a grooming table, so your dog will receive top-notch care if required. As a stay-at-home mom with older adult kids and a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to walk, play with, or house-sit for your pups with all the attention they deserve. For your peace of mind, I’ll always walk your dog on a leash. If you have a fenced yard, we can enjoy a fun game of fetch. And if your pup needs to be crated when I leave, rest assured they’ll be content and happily exhausted after all the playtime!
About: I work as dog bather at a grooming salon. I have been working there since November 1st of 2022. I am going to school to become a vet tech so I just want to work with yours dogs till I finish my schooling. I have a 1 year old dog and a 5 year old cat. I take care of them both daily and I love them both to death. I wash my dog once a week and feed and let him outside everyday. My cat kind of does her own thing but I clean the litter box every other day.
About: I've owned dogs throughout my whole life and my family currently has 2 young dogs. I am the primary dog walker and am familiar and comfortable with their caretaking tasks. I have repeatedly and reliably helped family, friends, and neighbors with dog and cat sitting. I am a college student home for breaks, so I have a very flexible schedule. I am pretty much always available over breaks and can easily adjust my own schedule for last minute bookings. I will talk to my client ahead of time and confirm any instructions and boundaries that they set for caretaking in their own home and follow those accordingly.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have had 4 of my own. For the past two years I worked in a dog grooming salon so I’ve worked professionally with dogs and know how to take care of them pretty well. I’m working a part time job right now so my schedule usually depends one the day. I’m usually free after 4 on the weekdays and free on the weekends it just depends on the day. I have a fenced backyard so they won’t be able to get out and if i’m at a clients home i’ll watch them extra closely.
About: Hey there!! I’m a passionate animal lover with a deep dedication to providing the best care for all pets. I believe in making each pet feel cared for and comfortable, adapting to their unique needs. I previously cared for an Australian Shepherd (little guy in the costume) for over two years, so I understand the bond and love that is necessary to each fur baby. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I’d be honored to give them all the love and attention they deserve! I am currently working from home and am working on my nursing degree. I am able to accept all time slots of early mornings and afternoons during the week and weekends! I currently do not have any pets here in my apartment but if needed, I have lots of living room space for running and stretching. As well as lots of time to hang out outside in our nearby parks and small trails around the apartment complex. :)
About: Since 2019, I've been committed to the well being of dogs and cats, offering trusted, reliable, and professional care. While my experience may be selective, each client I've served has left glowing reviews, reflecting the quality and dedication I bring to every job. Your pet companion is in good hands with my proven track record of satisfied clients. My current availability for pet services is contingent upon my full time employment, which spans Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, usually. My work is flexible as well. I am able to bring animals to my office. I operate on a hybrid work model, with a predominant presence in the office rather than at home. In my home or at my client's, the pets' safety and happiness are my top priorities. I customize care routines for each furry friend, sticking to their usual schedule for feeding, playtime, and keeping an eye on them. I make sure the environment is safe and comfy, and I'm always up for fun and cuddles to keep them content. I keep the client updated and have a plan in case of any surprises. Basically, I aim to make sure the pets feel right at home, whether they're with me or at their owner's place. I do have a fenced in yard and my own space to keep the pet comfortable.
About: I have been working in the pet industy for 10 years and I am pet CPR certified. I have taken care care of pups of all ages, all different kinds of animals, and have had many pets of my own. I currently work at a restaurant so may be gone here and there. My pups are home for you friend to have some company while I'm gone! I do not have a fenced in yard, but can leash walk anywhere. Pets can free roam inside my house, otherwise I can care for pets in their own space.
About: I’ve spent a majority of my life around animals. Growing up, we had a variety in the house (dogs, cats, fish, squirrels). I’ve learned that being calm, loving, and patient is the key to dealing with any pet. Like people, pets have their own quirks and personalities that is an absolute joy to learn about! I currently assist my sister with her two boys. Now that they are both in school, my schedule is much more open. I help get them to school early in the morning, and help pick them up in the afternoon. I have no problem helping with specialty pet needs and care, whether that be crating, medications, or assisted devices. Your pets are in great hands :)
“Declan was fantastic with Maverick. He has helped his transition in a new home and spent time with him helping obtain good manners! Will continue to use Declan in the future for Maverick’s needs!!”

Im free Thursday - all day, Friday - all day and Saturday - till 5pm. If I am needed for a bathroom break or feeding they will be well taken care of. I currently do not own a animal.

About: Hi my name is Dorota. I have been a dog mom for almost my entire life until recently when my dog, Patches, passed away. Although my husband and I decided not to get another dog, caring for dogs is still a passion of mine. My husband and I are very active and go on long walks almost every day, which means exercise will be a regular part of your dogs day! I am a very flexible person so your dog will be able to keep the same exact schedule that they have at home, so that they can be as comfortable as possible while living with me. I also have a lot of experience taking care of older dogs, giving them medicine, and whatever else they may need. Dogs are part of the family and when they stay at my home they'll feel like family! Please contact me if you think I would be the right fit for you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Russell is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $32 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Russell. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Russell after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Russell. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
