About: I have cared for and owned animals of all shapes and sizes for my entire life, including dogs, cats, horses, gerbils, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, mice, pigs, and goats! I am very experienced in feeding, watering, cleaning up after them, administering medication and supplements, playing, and snuggling. I am also very active, so I would love to take your dog of any size on a walk or run! I'm currently working part-time and my schedule is very flexible, so I can easily work around your and your pet's needs! I will always treat your animals like they are my own, so their care and happiness is my number one priority, no matter what else is going on in my schedule. I am extremely clean, organized, and reliable. I used to work for the government with a Classified clearance, and I have been certified in CPR and First Aid. I am also very tech savvy and handy, so rest assured I will close and lock every gate, door, and alarm with ease.
About: I've taken care of my dog for a little over 6 years, an extremely anxious rescue. He is well trained and very social. I can work with any sorts of dogs, small and loud, big and reactive, anything in between. Long or short walks. I currently in between jobs and doing some interviews, so I have plenty of time to help take care of your pet as if they were my own! I have one dog who lives in an apartment, but he is very active and socially. We go on at least one 2ish mile walk per day, but he loves playing fetch or with other dogs at the dog park.
About: I grew up with dogs and all of my kids have dogs, so not only am I a grandpa, I was a dog grandpa first! I also sit and love cats. They always find me. Had four dogs in my house for many times watching when my kids traveled, but now they moved so I have more time to get my fur feed. I take walks and would love to walk your pups but also can follow your guidelines doing the best to keep their routine. I work from home but occasionally have appointments outside of the home, so I am very available to work with your schedule. I will share my schedule with you when booking. I have a fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walking. Friendly home environment with access to fresh food/water and sunshine. Your dog/cat will be well-loved.
“James was walking my dogs for almost 3 weeks. He was remarkably punctual . I have two large dogs and James was able to handle them both at once. He was great with my dogs and they loved him, they are still watching the door waiting for him to come and get them for a walk. I would certainly recommend James to anyone who is looking for a responsible and punctual dog walker. I will definitely use his services in future.”

About: With 55+ years of trusted pet care, I bring a lifetime of experience as an AKC dog sitter and groomer. Nestled by a big lake with abundant nature and hiking trails, your pets will enjoy scenic walks and outdoor adventures. My love for animals drives me to share joyful pet moments with you, ensuring every need of both dogs and owners is attentively met. Your furry family members will feel right at home in this serene, pet-friendly haven. I also have lots of experience training pets, including the appropriate behavior for the show ring. We even ran the first pet friendly restaurant in the state of Kansas, working with them on proper policy. Pets are my passion and I’d love to help you with yours! As a flexible remote worker, I have plenty of time to play with your pets, ensuring they receive the attention and affection they deserve daily. I ensure safety and trust with a fenced yard and friendly dog for fun. At your home, I respect your preferences and offer kennel options if needed.
About: I offer small-group, in-home boarding, designed for pet parents who want something more personal than a traditional boarding facility. I intentionally keep the number of guest dogs small and manageable. While I do welcome pets from multiple families, I don't believe in packing a large number of dogs into one space. My goal is for every dog to receive individual attention, supervision, affection, and care rather than simply being one of many. Our home is spacious and set up to give dogs room to relax. We have two living rooms, a large unused basement area, and a fully privacy-fenced yard. Someone is almost always home, so your dog isn't spending the majority of the day alone. I have two senior dogs of my own, and I'm very intentional about maintaining a calm, safe environment for everyone's comfort. Because this is our family home, I do have a few house rules. Dogs are not allowed on our beds and I use baby gates or separation when necessary for safety, feeding, introductions, or simply giving a dog some downtime. My nightly rate is intentionally priced below many local boarding and daycare facilities, while still providing the advantages of a home environment: a smaller group, more individualized attention, a spacious home, a private fenced yard, and someone nearby most of the time. If you're looking for a place where your dog can be cared for as an individual—not just another dog in a large boarding group—I'd love to welcome them into our home. ❤️🐶

“Morgan has been super flexible & willing to work around my schedule. Morgan has done a wonderful job walking my dog on a daily basis & has been very patient when working with my pup! Would highly reccomend!”

“If I could have Evey as Gus's personal nanny, I would! She is top notch from communication, to pictures, to reliability. She goes the extra mile and truly enjoys what she does and it shows!”

About: My heart has always been devoted to dogs ever since I was little. We’ve always had a family dog(s) and I was blessed with my very own little furbaby April 2017. I have a 7 yo golden retriever who is a ball of energy! I am very active; love running and have volunteered at multiple animal shelters. I’m familiar with insulin injections and pill administration. I do work from home now and have a fairly flexible schedule. I recently bought a house.. for my dog ...and he loves his big backyard. It's fenced in and gives him plenty of room to run around and play fetch. Feel free to ask me any questions :) I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule during the day. My personal gets let out whenever he wants and am open to mornings, evenings and weekends Safety is first. I always check that dogs are not prone to jumping fences, are okay on walks or ask if there’s anything I should know (dart after squirrels or cars, pull, etc). When they stay over they are let out frequently and I’m usually home aside from running errands or going to dinner/ movies. Always fresh water.
About: I've taken care of many different types of breeds of dogs, specializing in bully breeds, for over 30 years. I recently retired from registered nursing and would love to continue to take care of non humans! I love dogs and am very active. I believe that dogs need love and most importantly exercise! I have trained puppies and cared for senior dogs. Your doggy/doggies will feel right at home and you can be sure they will become a part of our family! I am recently retired and I have all the time in the world to care for dogs! I am very physically active and I will diligently exercise all my doggy friends! I am very dependable and have a wide open schedule with ample flexibility. I have a fenced yard and your doggy will have a female mixed lab to play with! Be assured that your doggy will get plenty of exercise and love while in my care.
About: I raised my first dog to a healthy, ripe 17 years of age. My new pup is a rescue and I have helped her become an obedient (mostly), well-mannered good girl. We take walks everyday, even when it’s cold. I have patient and a calm demeanor which I believe most dogs need when interacting with a new person. I work during the day M-F most of the time. I am free in the evenings and on weekends. Currently working part time so my schedule is a bit more open. I have an energetic puppy that loves to run around at the dog park at my apartment complex. I typically crate my dog when I’m not home. Okay with having dogs free at client’s house if that what the pup is most comfortable with.
About: I am grateful that I got to grow up around animals and build special bonds with them! Ever since I was little, I cared for my own pets, my family’s and friend’s. I am detail oriented and care about you and your pet! I work full time during the week and I am off later in the evenings. My weekends are open to care for your furry friends! It is my top priority to create consistency and safety for my own cat, and that is still just as important when it comes to your pets! I appreciate clarity when it comes to expectations regarding your pets care.
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats since I was little and have years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I’m reliable, timely, and flexible, and I make sure every furry friend gets the attention, care, and love they deserve. I currently work full-time but love caring for animals in my free time. I work remotely on Mondays and Fridays and am in the office Tuesday through Thursday, so my availability varies slightly throughout the week. I’m generally available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I always make time to ensure pets get the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets, their safety and comfort are my top priority. I follow each owner’s instructions closely to maintain their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping things clean and secure. I’m attentive to their needs and provide lots of love, attention, and updates so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.
About: I have worked at vet clinics and grooming day care facilities since I was young and have a variety of animal experience. Rest assured your pets will be in good hands with me. I currently make my own schedule for work and much of my work is at home so your pets will have lots of attention and care while they stay for boarding at my house. I also have pets myself so taking care of your pets and mine is of the up most priority. I care for your pets just as I would care for mine I consider them part of my family. Comfort, stress management, and safety are always emphasized. I will customize the care as needed and work with you to make sure your furry friend feels at home.
About: Lifelong animal lover with tons of experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I don't have a dog of my own right now because my place is small, so I channel all my love and energy into yours! You can count on me to treat your pups with kindness, responsibility, and lots of fun. Whether you need someone for high energy walks or just quick drop in visits while you're away, I'm here to keep your animals happy. I'm super reliable and will keep you updated the whole time so you don't have to worry at all! I work from home and am free all day long for your babies! I just moved back to KC and am super excited to help out local pet parents with daytime drop-ins, walks, or house-sitting whenever you need me. I adapt completely to your pet's routine, so they feel safe and loved while you're gone. Whether I'm popping in for a visit or house sitting, I strictly follow your rules for feeding, walks, and care to keep them totally stress free.

Kelly is absolutely amazing and a true animal lover! I was out of town for a week and she came over every day to walk my very stubborn dog. She won her over and got her out and moving every day. Kelly had great communication and was punctual. I would highly recommend Kelly and I will be using her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Shawnee is $16 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $22 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 2,592 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Shawnee. 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 Shawnee. 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 Shawnee 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 Shawnee. 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 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.
