About: Hi! I’m Steph — a full-time pet caregiver through Rover and the heart behind a growing pet photography business. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have experience with all kinds of animals, from high-energy pups to quiet companions. I share my life with my dog Scooby, who’s a big lovebug and gets along great with both people and other animals, and two leopard geckos, Helios and Haku, who each have their own little quirks and charm. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have hands-on experience with pet nutrition and wellness—I've worked with a variety of healthy foods, natural supplements, and holistic care routines. I’m great at picking up on subtle signs when something’s off and take pet health seriously. Whether we’re playing fetch, going for a walk, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m all about creating a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always follow your instructions to a T—because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels loved, understood, and completely at ease while you’re away. I am very flexible with my schedule so please feel free to send me a request or a direct message to sent up an appointment! I have worked with certified fear free trainers as well as being a groomer for 3 years now I am very aware of animal body language and how to meet their needs so they feel safe in their environment. I do have a dachshund mix named Scooby that is incredibly friendly with Small to XL dogs. She’s always up for having a play date!

About: I've been a pet owner since I was a child. In our 40+ year marriage, my wife and I have owned two Maltese, two Shelties, and two Shih Tzus. Each pair simultaneously. Intermittently during the last four decades, we have also owned cats. In addition, I took care of our daughter's Labrador mix for a year while she studied in Europe. And now, I fly to Austin, Texas when she vacations to care for her Great Pyrenees, a Chihuahua mix, and a cat. I currently manage the remnants of a company I founded from my basement office. My work typically occupies less than an hour daily and can be done outside regular business hours, so my pet care schedule is very flexible. I regularly walk our Shih Tzus around the neighborhood and, weather permitting, take them to a nearby dog park. I also play Fetch with them in the house and give them daily massages. I usually take one of the dogs with me when I run errands in the car.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. From our neighbors cat who we invited to our birthday parties as kids, to the 3 precious dogs I’ve had the honor of being a mama to. Nash (weimer) left us in 2019 at 12 years old. We just said goodbye to Oliver (Puggle) in August of 2025 at 17 years old! And we currently still get to love on Riggins, our 10 year old Frenchie. With Nash and Oliver living such long lives, I have experience caring for all ages, from puppies to seniors. I work from home full time as a sales executive, so my flexible schedule allows me to step away as needed for care. I am also an early riser, so I am available to breakfast feed an walk early. My dogs are my babies, so I know the importance of having someone to rely on. If you need me to drop in and/or feed or give medicine, potty break/walk etc. at a specific time, I understand how important it is to not be late. If they need something at 3:30, it will be 3:30, not 3:45.

About: I have a special love for animals and have been relied on by friends and family for many years to help out with their pets when needed. I am able to take care of pets of any age or breed, but am especially good with senior care. I am available to come help out after 5pm during the week, outside of my other job hours, and am available all day on the weekends. We have a fenced in backyard at home for when we had dogs to let outside. We now just have cats, and spend time playing with them, cleaning litter boxes, and loving them.

About: Growing up, we were never without a pet, and my love for animals has been a constant throughout my life. I have years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small lap dogs to large breeds, and I’m especially comfortable with bully breeds. Friends and family often turn to me when they need a reliable and loving pet sitter, knowing their pets will be treated like family in my care. Over the past two years, we’ve experienced the heartbreaking loss of two beloved dogs, which has deepened my understanding of the love and devotion we have for our pets. I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for them, and I strive to give every dog in my care the same level of attention, affection, and patience that I would want for my own. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, and I take regular walks around a nearby lake, offering plenty of exercise and enrichment. Whether your pup loves to run, play, cuddle, or just lounge around, I tailor each stay to their unique personality and needs. Animals bring so much joy into our lives, and I truly love being able to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and providing them with a happy, safe, and loving experience! I work 12 hours a week outside of the home. My husband has a hybrid schedule so is usually at home if I have to be at work. We do have very active children and spend time driving to and from sports practices but there is usually someone here at all time! I take safety very seriously. I have a fenced in back yard and dogs will always be on leash outside of the backyard. I am able to crate if your fur baby is more comfortable with that. If interested in boarding, we will always have a meet and greet to make sure all animals and kids are comfortable. We have three children in the home ages 14,12 and 7 so any pets staying here must be comfortable around children that know how to interact and respect animals :)

Alexa was amazing with our two energetic dogs. She not only walked them but understood they needed more exercise so opted to throw them the ball before she left. Really appreciate her taking the extra step. Thank you!

About: Family of 4 animal lovers! We’ve had pets our entire lives and for the past year have been helping with dog fostering. Our two daughters love to help so your pet will receive plenty of attention, love, and playtime in our fully fenced backyard! I work from home so your pet will rarely be alone and will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. Pets are family here and are welcome to any furniture during their stay. We’d love to care for yours like one of our own! Our backyard is quite spacious and fully fenced in. If you’d like, we can definitely take your dog for a walk as our neighborhood is in a quiet suburb of Prior Lake without through traffic (our kids bike around with no fear). We also have two friendly cats who mostly keep to themselves (or cuddle with each other!) and will happily give your dog space.

About: Hi! I’m Isabelle, and if there’s an animal in the room, chances are you’ll find me hanging out with it.

I know every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets get consistent, reliable care whenever you need it I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. This includes feeding them on schedule, making sure they get exercise and playtime, keeping their space clean, and giving them lots of love and attention. I always pay close attention to their behavior and needs so they stay happy and comfortable while their owners are away.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Shakopee

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Shakopee 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 5,282 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Shakopee. 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 Shakopee. 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 Shakopee.

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 Shakopee. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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 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.
