About: I've grown up with animals my whole life and just recently volunteered at the humane society walking dogs! I also love working with cats and love to be playful with all kinds of animals! I'm currently only taking hours on the days I have off, so I'm free each day to look after your fur babies throughout the day! I'm a patient and love working with a variety of animals of all levels of energy. I love to provide walks and whatever is needed for you pet.
About: I have had dogs my entire adult life, up to 7 at one time, including a husky. I now only have 1, since I had to move and left the rest with my old roommate (some were his anyway, and I took the one that had chosen me as his human). Every dog I've ever had was properly trained to at least sit on command - with or without a treat. When I had the 7, I could have the pack surround me, and call them one by one for their treat, and only the one called would reach. People have watched my dog's behavior out in public and have aske if I could train their dogs! I have no formal training for dog training, but I did grow up watching Caesar on Animal Planet, and implemented his behavior training techniques with all of my own dogs when they were puppies, or from the time I accepted them in as strays. I have cared for others pets in the past, but not in a professional capacity. I sat for a friend of mine at her house, caring for 3 dogs and a cat. I fed the cat in the morning and at night and cleaned her litter box once a day. The dogs got fed on the same schedule, and spent the majority of the day outside in the fenced back yard unless it was raining. I went outside and threw balls and sticks for them a few times each day, for about an hour or so each time. I currently do not have a job, so I am available full time, any day or time. I have my own dog who prefers to not let me out of his sight, and will cry if I leave him at home alone, so getting a traditional job while living in an apartment is out of the question. With that said, I would need to bring him with me. He is going on 10 years old, and has never met a dog or person he didn't love. I am glad to bring him for a meet and greet before any commitments are made. Every dog has a way to let you know they need something. My dog prefers to attempt cuddles when he needs anything, leaving me playing a guessing game until I get it right. He gets super excited when I get it right! As a senior dog, I leave his food out 24/7, and check it in the mornings when I get up and at night when I go to bed to make sure it's not empty. If I notice that it's empty at any point during the day, I simply refill it. Same with his water. His potty schedule is pretty much the same - first thing in the morning, any time he asks during the day, and then one last trip out at bedtime. I know not every dog can follow this schedule, but I have also had dogs who needed me to set alarms to take them out every hour or two, until they were properly house trained. All I need from you is your dogs schedule.
“Mattie had a great visit with my rambunctious little guy. She is timely, very kind, and has good control. Luke very much enjoys her, and he looked for her after she left.”
About: My husband and I got our own dog, Indie, about 2 years ago! We know how important it is to feel confident and secure in the person who is caring for your fur baby. I will treat your pup like my own and do everything I can to put your mind at ease :) I am currently substitute teaching Monday-Friday. My husband is able to pop in and out throughout the day for potty breaks and I am typically home by 3:30 most days. Reach out with any questions and I’ll hopefully be able to make something work! I live in a townhome that offers a non-fenced in backyard and sidewalks for walking! I have plenty of space for your pet to play. My dog, Indie, will have the best time with your dog :) In your home, I am willing to cater to anything you and your pet are needing!
About: While I am new to providing pet care, I have always had a love for animals! I am reliable, attentive and committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable and safe while you are away! I provide picture updates to you with the various activities we will be doing so there is no worry while you are away! I currently work full-time and I have availability in the evenings to take dogs for walks and my weekends are opening as we wind down on the summer! I currently live in a town home with no backyard. I have 1 dog myself that I take for 3 miles walks everyday and we go to dog parks on the weekends to let him run around burn off energy! He loves other dogs!

About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable, and responsible dog lover who would be happy to give your pup the exercise, attention, and companionship they deserve. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I’ll always take the time to make your dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a relaxing stroll, or a longer walk to burn off some energy, I’m happy to help! I’m organized and dependable, and I make sure to set aside enough time for each pet rather than rushing through visits. I’m also happy to work with different schedules and routines, whether your dog needs a morning walk, a midday potty break, or some extra attention while you’re away. I love being able to provide pets with exercise, companionship, and care while giving their owners peace of mind. 🐾 I care for every pet as if they were my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while their family is away. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, comfort level, and individual needs. I’ll keep your home clean and your pet safe, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away! 🐾❤️
About: I’ve had dogs of my own for years and have worked at multiple dog boarding/daycare facilities. I have had e-collar and dog behavior training, I am also dog/cat CPR and first aide certified through PetTech. I currently work a full time job at a dog daycare and boarding facility and want to use my experience to be of more help to pet parents. In clients homes and out for walks I strive to give dogs the best care I can provide and stay in communication with parents to the best of my ability.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since the age of 10. Family, and friends have trusted me to take care of their dogs for short and long periods of time. I work a part time job while taking college classes at USD. I still find time in my day to play with and care for the animals I’m trusted with. I have a crate for dogs or a comfy bed for them to sleep on. I don’t have a fenced yard but do have a long chain dogs can use on the side of the house.
About: I've provided pet services and pet/house sitting for a small group of people I've known and been referred to. I've been wanting to expand my clientele, as I have a lot to offer. Although I consider it to be a small side gig, I like to refer to my business affectionately as "No Place Like Home". I have 20 plus years experience, including managing a dog day care for two years. It also includes working with special needs, administering medication orally and through injections. I have references as well as my own personal experience with my cat. I am energetic and can keep up with even the most active dogs. They are my passion. Not only that, pet sitting in your house creates a calmer and safer environment for your pets, as well as keeping your home safe and occupied. I am semi retired. I have a lot of time to spend with your pets in your home ensuring several potty breaks, play and exercise. I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I follow instructions left by the owner and will ensure play and exercise
“We have been using Zach to walk our dog for the past couple months. Very respectful, polite, and keeps me updated with all the bookings. Excellent at responding and extremely trustworthy. We will continue to book- very happy customers!! :)”
About: Hello I’m Kayla! I am currently a small business owner. I am a proud owner of a corgi blue heeler mix, and a GSP blue heeler mix. (Fun right?!) I’m obsessed with idea of having my fun part-time job be watching dogs! Some of my favorite things to do with my doggo are going to the dog park to play, and going on long walks. In my free time I volunteer at the humane society, and take the dogs on walks. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my bio to get to know me better, and I hope I can spoil your dog as much as I do mine! Bella and I can’t wait to meet you, and your little nugget! As someone who has two dogs myself I understand how important it is to make sure dogs are handled with extreme care, and that they need to stick to their normal routine. I am great at making my schedule work around theirs. We offer a separate doggie room where your pups will stay and is set up for them to be cozy. We also have a dog park right outside in out backyard!
About: I've had a love for dogs and all animals since I was very young and would love the opportunity to meet your pets and spend time with them! I'm currently working part time and can be available every day of the week and weekend, so no matter when you need help I'll be ready to assist with your furry family members! I keep pets on their normal routine, having safety come first, and sending photos/updates so you never have to wonder how things are going.

About: Need a great dog sitter this holiday season? Look no further! Send me a message :). I’m willing to do long or short term dog sits in the comfort of your dog’s home. I’ve previously volunteered at animal rescue sanctuaries in Hawaii, Ireland, and the Philippines because I really have a passion for animals. Cats, dogs, horses, you name it- if it’s an animal, I love it haha. I’m currently living in Harrisburg, South Dakota and am looking forward to spending time with your precious pet(s)! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 5 years old. (I have a couple photos uploaded with dogs from when I was a kid :) ) My grandma raised dogs so I happily helped out all the time and quickly grew to love dogs. I began my own dog grooming business which I did for a few years, and after that, I dog sat for friends and family. Recently I helped watch a farmers dogs for a month which included walking the 5 of them, feeding them, bathing them, and watering them. I dog sat two French Bulldogs for 2 weeks, everything went great and they loved their walks and bath time. One family actually flies me out to dog sit for them still (for 3 years) since me and their dog are besties and he is aggressive to new people. I’m happy to give you any contact numbers if you’d like to speak with any previous people I’ve dog sat for. I’m very responsible and pay attention to detail to ensure your dog is safe and happy in my care. Send me a message to talk about time/dates but I am pretty flexible :). I am not in school so I’ll have plenty of free time to spend with your dog/cat! What better job than playing with dogs/cats. In my clients home I will be considerate and follow your rules and preferences. I will keep the place tidy and clean and put things back where I found them, such as leash etc. . I’ve volunteered on animal rescue sanctuaries for months with 15+ other volunteers so I know how to be respectful and considerate of other people’s homes.
About: I've always had a dog in the house, usually two. I have a husky named Sylvie who I love dearly. I have plenty of dog and cat experiences including specialized care and administering medications. I have quite the flexible schedule and am happy to make myself available for you and your pup's schedule - just let me know how I can help! I have two rescues that used to keep my on my toes but are now settled and happy, so I'm here to help take care of your animals.
About: I have helped out many friends and family members with checking in and caring for their pets while being away. As a proud dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone reliable, trustworthy, caring, and professional to check in on your sweet pup. I currently work from home Monday through Friday, and have flexibility to go check in on pets during breaks. Weekends I also work part time, so I have extra time available to check in on pets! I will always ask for detailed instructions when having to enter your home. I want to always make sure to treat your pet with love and respect, and also be respectful to and in your home.
About: I have trained and owned animals my whole life. I graduated with a veterinary assistant degree from western Iowa tech in Sioux city Iowa. Animals are my world and I love working and hanging out with them daily. I own a dog and 2 cats and love to cuddle them and train them so they can become and live their best life possible. I can give all my animals baths, exercise, positive reinforcement and love anytime they need it. I have a huge back yard and love to play with them outside too.
About: I have lived on a farm my whole life therefore I am very familiar with dogs! I have worked at a vet clinic before so I am comfortable with different breeds:) I recently had a baby girl and I would love to stay home with her as much as possible! So in order to do so… I’d love to get active again and take your dogs on walks and/or get out of the house to drop in and visit your pets! Living on a farm has never required me to walk my dogs but I feel that I am responsible and trustworthy enough to walk your dog(s) safely! I know how important your pets are to you and I will do everything to keep them safe and healthy!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shindler
The Best Dog Sitter I Could Have Asked For! I cannot recommend Emma enough! She took absolutely amazing care of my girls while I was away on my trip, and I truly could not have asked for a better sitter. She took the time to get to know each of their individual personalities, making sure they felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for. She even went above and beyond by spending extra time outside with them to help them burn off their energy and get plenty of playtime in. On top of taking such wonderful care of my dogs, she even brought in packages that were delivered while I was gone! One of my favorite things was how consistent she was with updates. This was my first time using this service so I was a little nervous just because my girls have always been cared for by friends and family, but Emma sent updates every single day and provided plenty of pictures so I could check in on my girls and see how happy they were. Knowing they were in such caring, attentive, and trustworthy hands gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It is never easy leaving your fur babies behind, but she made the entire experience so much easier. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after and goes the extra mile to make sure they are happy and loved. I would absolutely trust her with my girls again and will definitely be booking with her in the future. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pets like their own, she is the person to book!
Did a great job! She paid attention to my dog and her needs. She walked my dog on a fairly hot day and I was worried about her overheating but she kept me reassured and it went great. The second time she was walked she had an ouch fun she didn’t want to stop playing/running around when she got home. Will be rebooking.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Shindler is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 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 Shindler. 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 Shindler 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 Shindler. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
