“Jessica was very kind to walk my dogs when I hurt my foot! She’s flexible and a great communicator, and my boys were happy and tired after their walk with her. Would definitely book again!”
About: Low rate as I acquire clients. I recently came back to this app. Therapist by trade and a pet lover in general :) I have three pets and one of them is a two year old mini Aussie. I regularly support a neighbor with their 11 year old pup and would like the opportunity to support your family in: * Teeth brushing * Crate Training * Baths & Grooming, at your request. * Walks around or in your neighborhood. * Administering medication. * Basic clicker training: I can support you and your pet(s) in reinforcing, sit, wait, spin, drop, high five, recall. * Exposure training for the anxious pups * All the cuddles, playing, and mental stimulation with safety in mind. Right now my availability is flexible after 10am and before 3:30pm. Late evening are open as well for walks. Message me, maybe we can figure something out! I will treat your pet as you do. I’m interested in what their day to day schedule looks like, their likes and dislikes, favorite toys, and how to best earn their trust.
“Our regular dog walker was out for a week so we contacted Rosario. Not only was she happy to do a meet and greet, she was incredibly kind and patient with our nervous, shy dog. Our dog Dylan takes a VERY long time to warm up to new people, and Rosario spent more than our booked time coaxing her into going out for a potty break. She sent multiple videos and pics, and communicated with us through the whole process. I would recommend her 110%, she is an absolute angel.”
“Tamara is amazing. Our dog Luna loves her walks with her. We know she is in good hands. I would recommend Tamara to anyone that has a dog and wants to know your baby is taking care of.”
“She is absolutely amazing! She follows instructions perfectly, communicates quickly and clearly, and always prioritizes safety. I really appreciate how she reinforces our dog’s training and handles dogs with so much care and confidence. We trust her completely and feel very lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”
“I’m so glad Edgar is taking care of my dog during the day. I love getting my message and pictures, and I know he’s getting exercise, a potty break and some attention. I highly recommend Edgar to anyone looking for a dog walker!”
“Ryann was great with our puppy who has tons of energy and can be a handful at times! She sent plenty of updates and was very respectful and responsive in communications. Definitely will book again!”
About: My name is Kimberly and I'm an empathetic animal lover who enjoys a weekend of hanging out with animals more than humans. I grew up with a house full of pets (cats, dogs, ferrets, birds) and have over 11 years of experience as a dog walker and pet sitter for all kinds of critters and pets. I know how much you'll be missing your pet as they are your family, so I love to provide photos with anecdotes of our day. You'll never doubt how much love they'll be getting when they're in my hands. I have experience with large and small breeds, as well pets who need extra love and care. My gentle nature makes me perfect for anxious pets and my extreme attention to detail makes you feel confident that they are getting the best, most loving care. My 18 year old Toy Fox Terrier, is my world, so I understand how important it is to find the right sitter. My dog is a senior dog with social needs, so I have plenty of experience accommodating to your pets' needs. My quiet nature and patience is quickly detected by all furbabies. What's the best way your pet will feel comforted when you're gone - I'll go ahead and do just that! Your pet will be pampered! I work freelance, so my schedule is very flexible, and I can work around your schedule and needs to make sure your pet is getting the best care possible. At your home, you can rest assured that every instruction will followed closely and perfectly. I also have extreme respect for being inside others homes. I grew up helping my mom cleaning houses, and it's been ingrained in me to always respect the home and space you are in. I always provide a peace of mind with any pet parent gone, either leaving town for a few days or just a visit for one afternoon. Your pets will be treated with the best care, and I understand that everyone has their own unique way of caring for their pet. I want to respect your wishes and make your furbaby happy 😊
About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my life! I had a puppy as a young girl, and cared for her through her old age. I also have extensive pet sitting experience, and have watched 5 dogs simultaneously. I have a very caring personality and would love to care for your fur babies! When it comes to cats, I have about 12 years of experience. I have taken care of numerous outdoor stray cats, and have rehomed many of them, including taking two into my own home. I am self employed (jewelry artist!) so I have plenty of time to check in with your pets, walk/play etc. I am available anytime during the week (M-F) and usually on the weekends as well. I currently live in a small apartment, and would need to come by you. I am excellent at following directions, and will cater to you and your pets needs.
About: I have taken care of friends and clients dogs. The longest I watched a dog was 2 weeks. She is an Australian Shepherd and Boxer mix (high energy and very smart). Others breads I have taken care of are Doberman, Labradoodle, French Bulldog, Pit Bull, and Bulldog. Long walks and playtime are no biggie! Just a note, my household is just me and my boyfriend. I wake up at 6:30-7am, go on a walk, breakfast, play time, snack, nap (if needed, walk or play, relax, and dinner. I adjust to the needs of the dog, especially with physical activity. I am comfortable with high energy and low energy dogs. They will get a lot of love and encouragement the whole time. I live in a condo in a 12 story building. It is a dog friendly building with fenced in a play area. It is small but an easier way for any dog that needs to be let out. There are a couple of dog parks to walk to but can avoid and just walk if that is more comfortable for them.
“Desiree was so thoughtful and went above and beyond to take care of the dogs (and my cat despite me not mentioning him)! The pups and I feel very very taken care of!”
“Jamie was awesome with our dog! She’s extremely detail oriented, conscientious, timely and really oriented around his well being. We’d love to have her help again in the future!”
About: I have been petsitting since i was 5 years old. My love for animals started when i first met my neighbors pomeranians who i dog sat very frequently growing up. I recently stopped taking care of them because they moved to florida,but i cared for them from puppyhood until they were senior pups! I also got a pup of my own when i was 9 and trained him by myself although it was hard because he was a stubborn guy! He loved going on adventures so i would act like id take the wrong turn on walks and he'd be so happy! So if your pup loves long walks i am most definitely okay with accommodating to your puppys walk length. If your puppy is sleepy and doesnt like long walks thats okay too! I am in school, but i am available after school and on weekends! I am always available after 3 to take a puppy outside for a long walk or a feeding I am always making sure the pet is happy and comfortable. I like to make sure that they come to me when they want pets so that they can get used to me. I am always paying attention to body language and how they are reacting
“Angelina is fantastic with Griffey! She is super communicative, punctual, and makes me feel at ease knowing he is in good hands. Love the updates and photos too; it’s clear she really cares. Highly recommend!!”
“Artiss has walked my pup multiple times, and he has always been happy to see her! She has done a great job managing his high energy level, sent wonderful photo updates, and always made sure he went to the bathroom.”
About: Hi there! My name is Callyn. I’m new to Rover, but have been caring for pets for quite sometime now! Originally, my pet sitting started as nannying for little humans. This naturally trickled into me caring for their pets too! I’ve now found myself here to expand my services to the greater Chicagoland. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including animals with specialized medical and behavioral needs. My experience includes providing daily care and monitoring for cats with diabetes, such as administering medications, tracking dietary requirements, and recognizing changes in health or behavior. In addition to medical care, I am experienced in working with dogs of different temperaments, including those who may be shy, anxious, reactive, or strong-willed. I focus on building trust through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement techniques. I have also trained dogs in foundational obedience skills, including sit, stay, heel, paw, and proper leash-walking manners. My schedule allows me to accommodate feeding routines, medication administration, exercise needs, potty breaks, and plenty of companionship. Also, LOTS OF TIME FOR PLAYING!! (: I try my best to keep pets on their everyday schedule to help them feel grounded in their owners absence. I’m happy to adjust to what that looks like for them specifically- walks to the park, sunbathing in the yard, or greeting the mailman every day.
About: I have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats. I am especially comfortable with high-energy dogs and anxious dogs. I trained my family’s dogs many basic skills and have practice administering medications. I love all animals and would be honored to take care of yours! I’m currently in graduate school, looking for a part-time job; and would love to help take care of your pets! My current schedule is open for any day of the week, anytime. I am happy to feed, walk, crate, or simply play with your dog or cat! I am quite flexible and have stubborn dogs of my own, so I know all the tricks of getting pups to do what you need them to do.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stickney
Another great booking with Rosario! We booked her for drop in visits for our dog while we were out of state for a wedding. She always sends lots of photos and videos of our boy having a great time - putting us at ease that he’s in good hands. Our return flight got cancelled multiple times and Rosario was so helpful and flexible with extending her visits so our boy wasn’t left alone until we finally got home two days later. We are so grateful
Amaya was wonderful. My dog was pretty scared of some fireworks and wouldn't go for a potty walk. Amaya hung out with her the whole time, and even offered to breifly come back to try a quick potty break, which worked! She went above and beyond. And was incredibly patient. 5 stars, 100%.
James did a great job with my dog, Daisy! He walked her once on Thursday and twice on Saturday, and everything went really smoothly. He was always on time, friendly, and clearly comfortable with her. Daisy currently has an injured knee, so she needs limited activity, and James was very attentive to that. He listened to my instructions and took great care of her. I also appreciated the updates and photos through the Rover app after each visit—it gave me peace of mind. I felt very comfortable with James and will definitely be booking him again!
Jessica is marvelous! My dog EllieBean takes a while to warm up to new people. Jessica took her time over several visits to gain EB's trust. She was patient and professional, even when the weather and EB were a challenge. They have now become great friends. In addition, Jessica is a pleasure to work with and always shows up on time. I'm so grateful to have found Jessica!
This is our second booking with Carly. She’s been extremely efficient and friendly with our dog. Each time she walked him through the area he liked and he always enjoyed his time with her, you could tell how happy he was when they returned. We recommend Carly 100%!

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 .

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 Stickney. 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 Stickney.

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 Stickney. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
