I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for every dog in my care. In addition, I have experience with housebreaking as well as basic obedience training, and I’m happy to help reinforce routines and good habits during your pet’s stay.

About: Hello! I’m a dog lover and behavior-focused pet caregiver who believes every dog deserves to spend their time being themselves, feeling comfortable, and having fun! 🐶 3+ years of professional experience working with dogs in daycare & boarding settings 🏡 Experienced with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, energy levels, and behavior needs. 🐾 I have dogs of my own, so I understand that every dog is an individual and should be treated like family 🧠 Currently studying dog behavior and training and always learning more 👀 Strong understanding of canine body language and behavior, including recognizing signs of stress, discomfort, excitement, and relaxation 💕 I let your dog lead the way — whether they want to play, sniff, explore, cuddle, relax, or simply have some quiet time 🌿 I believe dogs should have choices whenever safely possible rather than being pushed into activities they aren’t comfortable with 🚫 Fear, pain, and intimidation have no place in my care. I use gentle, positive, and respectful handling with every pet My goal is simple: your dog gets to have a staycation that feels like it was made just for them. 🐾 I’m an online student and a freelancer, so I make my own schedule and I’ll have plenty of time for your furry friend! No need to worry about any schedule restrictions. Safety & well-being always come first — I closely monitor your dog, make sure their physical and emotional needs are met, and give them choices while keeping their safety a priority. I follow any and all instructions to a T and will always keep a close eye on your fur baby.

Amazing walk with my dog! It was a little hot so she accommodated the walk to the grass outside our home. On time, very patient with our dog who is nervous around new people. Sent pictures to update us. 10/10 would book again.

Out of town plans for both my husband and I. Miranda was able to come to our house and I let her in using my garage app to open the door. I'm sure Rosco was excited to see her and go for a walk. Super nice service and she was reliable.

About: *Note I go by Danny, but Rachel is my legal name. And then my partner Morgan sometimes helps me out on my visits. About me: I have taken care of cats all my life, and when it comes to dogs I've babysat more than I can count. I love them all. I can handle gentle types. Even loud ones. Let me know if they need special commands or to be talked to. I love to talk personally with the animals and just be with them. :) This is my primary job for now, so I would be available whenever YOU want. I also work with my 3 lovely cats on a daily basis. If I have your pet at my home, they will mostly be just for walks. We could sit and watch TV at home, or maybe learn something new? I like to grow with the animal.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Saint Joseph on Rover is $16.05 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 178 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 your 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 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 Saint Joseph.

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 Saint Joseph. On Rover:

  • 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
