About: I have experience caring for young cats and pups of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet 12-year-old seniors, along with some experience caring for older senior dogs! 🐾 While playtime, cuddles, and potty breaks are always part of the fun, I also understand that every dog has their own unique needs. I have experience administering oral medications, assisting dogs with limited mobility, and adjusting care to their individual comfort levels. Whether your pup is full of energy or prefers a slower pace with extra snuggles, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away! 🥰 I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday, which leaves my Fridays and weekends open for spending quality time with your furry family members! 🐾 Whether it's a quick potty break, a walk, some playtime, or extra cuddles, I'd love to help keep your pets happy and cared for while you're away. I'm happy to work with you in order to make their time with me as comfortable as possible! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level! My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while keeping your furry family members as close to their normal routine as possible. When caring for pets in your home, I'm mindful of their feeding schedules, medications, potty routines, and any special instructions you provide. I always respect your home and your pet's boundaries, especially when working with shy, anxious, or extra-spicy personalities! I'm also happy to provide photos and updates during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. 💕

About: Experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. Have owned as many as 5 at one time, as well as fostering dogs, cats and kittens, including a special needs beagle with degenerative myelopathy (he had a cool wheelchair :) . I love them all and will care for them like they are my own. I will scratch and play and provide belly rubs on command. If I sit for your dog in my home, my cat, Frankie, will just roll her eyes and move on :) I am happy to work with the schedule you prefer for your furry kids, even if it's not the same as mine. Please contact me with questions, I am happy to chat first so we are both comfortable. While I no longer work from home, I still have plenty of time to care for dogs in my home, as I have done for my own dogs 😊 I have a fenced yard and a special “dog room” with toys a few different sized crates for when they need some space from my cat 😊.

About: For me, pet sitting on Rover is so much more than a job—it is a true passion rooted in 30 years of dedicated animal care experience. Over the decades, I have had the absolute joy of looking after all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats and small animals. I know firsthand that every single pet is a cherished family member with their own unique personality and routine. Because of this lifelong background, I am incredibly adaptable; I know exactly how to keep up with a high-energy puppy, gently comfort a shy senior cat, or carefully manage specialized feeding schedules for your pets. I treat every animal in my care exactly how I would want my own pets to be treated: with endless patience, safety, and deep affection. Leaving a pet can be stressful for owners, so I always leverage my decades of experience to prioritize clear communication, reliability, and daily updates that give families complete peace of mind. I am fully confident in my ability to connect with and care for any type of pet, and I am dedicated to making sure both you and your companion feel completely safe, comfortable, and happy. I currently work as a handy-man so my hours are flexible enough to need your pets every needs from stopping by and playing multiple times a day to sitting with them all day and night. I also have an animal friend home with pleanty of play area and 1 acre of fenced in yard for them to play. My 3 dogs and 3 cats welcome any animal into the household with open paws. My gentle giant st. Bernard and German shepherd are rough enough to play tug of war with the biggest of dogs but gentle enough to cuddle and protect a 5lb teacup Yorkie.

About: I'll make sure your animal is well taken care of. I will treat them like my own. From a morning walk to a relaxing night, I'll be there for your animal. For me, fur baby care comes before myself. They get fed when it's time to eat, never late on that. Don't forget the morning treats for those teeth either. I always have an extra leash in my car. No fur baby ever leaves my eye site. I always walk the yard to make sure there is nothing that can harm them.

About: I have had cats and dogs all my life. Currently I have thirteen fur/feather babies. Two cats, one Australian shepherd and ten chickens. My pup just turned a year old so I have more knowledge with younger pups. Can't wait to meet your fur babies! I am a stay at home mom and have flexible availability. I can be there for your fur babies practically whenever you need me! I have better weekday availability, while weekends require planning ahead. Whether you need me to walk your dog, come over to ease their anxiety or simply let them out to potty, I can meet all their needs. Or if you have a high energy dog like my Aussie, I can get some of that energy out by playing with them while you are at work.

“Breagha is a friendly pup but with all the recent changes in our lives has become pretty velcro with me. She took to Allie immediately and trusted her enough to trot out across the porch without me. She willingly went out in the yard for a short walk. Allie’s kind gentle personality is a perfect match for a sensitive collie.”

About: I adopted a rambunctious shelter cat 5 years ago. She’s a wild child with a big personality! And I took in a stray cat about 2 years ago, who needed lots of care, including surgeries, food insecurity behaviors, etc. I’ve cared for cats my entire life, but these 2 girls have taught me how to handle the extremes. I am very knowledgeable about cats and their needs, and I can promise you, your baby will be taken care of as if they were my own (aka like perfect princess angels that I’d go to war for) I work from home, so I can immediately take care of any and all needs. I frequently check on my 2 cats, and have no issue stepping away from my desk if needed. In my home: My 2 cats have their own bedroom, catered to their playtime and nap time. They have free rein of the house, and are very welcoming to other cats. They are up to date on vaccinations and vet care, and they do not go outside for their safety. In your home: I will treat your pet(s) as if they were my own, with kindness and patience. I will follow your routine. I will be sure to change my clothes and take off my shoes to avoid any anxiety from smells of my own pets.

AND Liz gave pointers/lessons to my Mom. I heard nothing but having a happy dog after Chief’s time with Liz. Thanks Liz!!”

About: I have about 3 years of pet-sitting experience and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I have experience staying overnight at clients’ homes, stopping by throughout the day, feeding, walking, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I have cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs, small breeds to large breeds, and even pets that are shy or not comfortable around other people. I am patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has different needs. I love getting to know each animal and making sure they receive the care, attention, and affection they deserve! I don’t have a job so i have so much free time and love spending my free time caring for animals. I am available for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays depending on my schedule. I am happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that works best for them and their pets. I enjoy giving pets plenty of attention and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have experience caring for pets in their own homes, including overnight stays and drop-in visits. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and specific needs. I am patient with shy or nervous animals and understand the importance of keeping them in a safe, familiar environment. I always make sure pets are fed, cared for, and given plenty of love and attention while their owners are away.

About: Hello! My name is Adrianna and I’m so excited to meet your fur babies! I have 3 dogs of my own: a German shepherd, a husky mix and a golden doodle. I love animals of all types and have experience with special needs dogs, administering medication, and walking reactive dogs. My parents have 4 dogs as well that I routinely care for. I understand how comforting it is to know your pets are in good hands and I would love to be able to be that person for you! I typically work evenings, therefore daytime walks and visits are ideal for me and ensure I have lots of time to spend with your babies. I am happy to provide leashes and poop bags in case they are ever forgotten and i will ensure owners receive updates about their pets regularly.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Saint Joseph

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Saint Joseph is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $17 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,005 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Saint Joseph. 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 Saint Joseph. 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 Saint Joseph 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 Saint Joseph. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
