About: I have had dogs and cats all my life and love taking care of them. I work full time but my job allows for me to come home for breaks. I am on 2 week breaks and three to four month breaks through the year! Looking to fill my time as pets are my furkids! I work full time but it allows me to come home during my breaks to let pets out! Looking to care for more pets! ❤️❤️ I do not have a fenced yard but we do 3-4 daily walks a day. We go to dogs parks and hike as much as we can.
About: Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities! I offer plenty of walks (yes, even in winter!) to keep your pup active and engaged. Whether it’s strolling around the lake or snuggling at home, I’m here to ensure they feel safe, loved, and right at home—even when you’re away. I currently make my own schedule which means I can be flexible and I’m available every other week for overnights and most weekdays for walks. I have a 13 y/o Border Collie that gets leashed walks. We love walks! Apollo loves making new friends unless they are a Boxer breed.
About: My husband, Chris, and I love meeting and caring for dogs! We picked up Rover as a side job so we could spend some extra time caring for and playing with a variety of pooches. We are a great option if you want your fur family member to be loved on, taken on adventures, played with, and in constant companionship while you’re gone. We’ll make sure to send you updates and pictures if you’d like, and guarantee to treat your pet as our own. Between my husband and I, we always have someone at home caring for your doggo! This works especially great for those pets that are used to always being with someone. We try to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible to keep them comfortable and happy in a new environment. Let us know what your furry friend likes to do, and we will accommodate!
About: Farm-raised animal lover with attention to detail. Calm, patient care built on trust, enriching walks, and outdoor adventures tailored to your dog's unique personality and needs. Pet care is currently my primary focus, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I can dedicate my time and attention to each pet, ensuring they receive reliable care, exercise, companionship, and a calm, consistent experience every visit. I care for every pet as if they were my own, always respecting their routine, personality, and comfort level. Whether in your home or out on a walk, I focus on building trust through calm, patient interactions while providing plenty of exercise, enrichment, fresh water, affection, and attentive care. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
“Faith did an amazing job caring for my two dogs! From the moment we met, she was incredibly friendly, caring, and attentive to my pets. I was especially impressed with how detailed her Rover Card was—it really showed how much thought and care she put into keeping me updated. Her professionalism, work ethic, and genuine love for my dogs really stood out. When I’m back in La Crosse, I know exactly who I’ll be choosing to care for my dogs again”
About: Hi, my name is Megan. I have been volunteering at my local Humane Society, for over 2 years, so I’ve had lots of experience with so many different breeds of dogs! I enjoy all types of animals. Potty breaks I know are important along with tons of play time. I am able to learn/ adapt to your pets needs! All animals are wonderful in my eyes! Lots of pets and scratches, and belly rubs also included! I personally would love to be able to watch your pets. It’s my dream job I’d say! I’m very laidback, and have a calm personality . Also I’ll treat your pet as I would my very own. I work part time! So most days I am available to walk or watch your animals! Just message me to talk more about how I can care for your animal(s)! I would do anything for my animals. There is a fenced in big back yard! My 2 dogs love it. I keep my two dogs as healthy as possible! I love them like family.
“Linsie is extremely professional and detail-oriented. Her text responses are also super quick and she was able to agree to walk my dog with short notice. I had no problem trusting her with my fur babes. Thank you! It was a wonderful experience.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 190 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Stoddard. 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 Stoddard. 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 Stoddard 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 Stoddard. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
