“My dog absolutely loves Nora! She waits by the door when she knows it’s getting close to her walk time. Nora is great at communicating and very kind to my dog. I have already hired her again for another set of walks and will definitely continue to use her in the future!”
“I'm so grateful that Victoria was available on short notice. She answered very promptly, and my lab was very happy after his time with her. I would certainly hire Victoria again when we need her!”
“Chloe was amazing!! She stepped in at the last minute and I am so happy that she did!!! She was prompted on time for all of her visits and gave my dog Charlie all the love in the world in addition to some fun extra long walks! I’m so excited to have found her and will definitely be using her again”
About: Hey! My name is Alyson and I’m ready to get your dog snoozing and waiting for your arrival. Been pet sitting for years!! I grew up around dogs, I had a black lab and after his passing I got two dogs, a Pyrenees and a Chihuahua mix… I’ve worked with it all.😅 I’ll have your dog tired out and snoozing in no time! I am free ALL SUMMER LONG! Anytime, anywhere, I’ll take good care of your fur baby. I can do morning, afternoons, evening, everything! Like I said I’m very open. It’s all your call! Need them to go for a walk? Wanna play ball? Just want to cuddle up? I’m here for it.
About: Since I was young, roughly 7 I worked with all different types of animals and breeds. The smallest I've worked with is snakes all the way to the biggest being Buffalo. So I'm pretty confident when it comes to dogs and cats. I have dog training under my belt, giving medications; I do not give injections however, I simply think it's too much of a risk. I also have senior care, so I'll take extra care to minimize any work the older animals will have to put in for anything when I'm with them. Throughout the week my schedule is open for a decent amount of it, so it helps In making my rover schedule pretty open and flexible for clients. For safety reasons I will never bring my personal dog, but for clients; I'll always make sure to follow every direction and precaution they have left me for their animals. Then of course take standard safety etiquette for when walking or exercising a clients animal.
About: I have over five years of experience caring for my neighbors’ dogs throughout high school and college, often pet sitting for extended periods ranging from several weeks to a full month. My responsibilities included feeding them on a consistent schedule, cleaning their cages and living areas, taking them on regular walks, giving them supervised time to play and roam in the backyard, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I am comfortable taking full responsibility for pets while their owners are away and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My schedule is currently very flexible, as I am living at home and primarily working in food delivery having flexible hours. This allows me to be available throughout the day and any day of the week, so I can give your dogs plenty of time, attention, and care whenever needed. I grew up with a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet. I always make sure to follow the owner’s specific instructions and maintain the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. While caring for my neighbors’ dogs over the years, I handled feeding, cleaning their cages and living areas, taking them on walks, giving them supervised time in the backyard, playing with them, and making sure they received plenty of attention and affection. I am respectful of both the pet and the owner’s home, and I always prioritize safety, trust, and making sure each dog feels comfortable while their owner is away.
“Wen has been an amazing dog walker! She took care of my two frenchies. She made sure they got plenty of exercise and water when they got back. What I loved about her is she would make sure to update me and take so many photos of my baby's. I highly recommend Wen! I will be using her in the future!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals, especially dogs, since I was 9. I love animals and have sat for various types of pets— occasionally I will also get help from my lovely boyfriend. I’m currently a student attending college and I love animals. I’m super flexible and can find time on any days needed if it is possible. If needed, I can request an extra set of hands, my boyfriend, to help at no cost to you. I have 2 dogs that I care for on a daily basis. I feed them twice a day, the same time, every day. I make sure they get at least 30 minutes of exercise every day and give them baths once a week.
About: I am the biggest dog person you will ever meet! I grew up taking care of a dog until my senior year of high school when she sadly passed away. In my senior year of college my roommate and I owned and took care of a senior dog. After she passed I decided to provide dog sitting services in the Berkeley area. I have experience with both large and small dogs, dogs that are leash reactive, dogs that are anxious, and dogs with a ton of energy! Additionally, throughout high school and over COVID I volunteered at a local animal shelter and provided dog walking and dog sitting services in Orange County! I've been told that I have a way with dogs, with many owners surprised that their normally timid pup warms up to me quickly. If you need to know your dog's in good hands, I am more than happy to give them a wonderful stay! I am home for two months this summer before I move to Ireland. My only plan for the summer is get ready for my move as well as train for my first marathon! I'm also looking to spend as much time outdoors as possible, including the park, the beach, hikes, and walks, that I would gladly have a furry friend accompany me on. In the evenings I typically like to get cozy and read or watch TV, and I would appreciate a cuddle buddy. I have a big, fenced backyard that would be any dog's paradise! I'm also more than happy to take any dog on a field trip to have some fun in the sun! I can provide lengthy walks multiple times a day and even have the dog accompany me on runs if they need to get some of their extra energy out.

I can adjust my weeks to fit your pets needs accordingly. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine exactly the same so they feel safe and stress-free while you are away. Here is what I bring to every home visit: • Strict Routine: I follow your exact schedule for feeding, exercise, and medication times • Safety & Health Focus: Thanks to my clinic background, I am highly observant and notice any changes in your pet's behavior or comfort • Frequent Updates: I send regular photos and updates so you have total peace of mind • Respectful Care: I treat your home with the utmost respect, leaving it clean and secure
About: I’ve had three cats almost my entire life, and have watched friends’ and neighbors’ cats so I am well versed in making sure they have the care they need!

Please let me know what care your animals need in your home and I’ll follow it to a T.
About: I have been taking care of pets my whole life!! I have a 12 year old golden border collie Aussie and he is the best ever.

I would love to spend time with your pets :) I am happy to take any precautions and make you feel as confident on my abilities to watch your pet. Just let me know what sort of environment you prefer!
“Took great care of our baby. I had so much going on that I forgot I had family coming over to walk our dog too. Our family member and Emilina ended up showing up back to back. Emilina helped us out by coming back later in the day to walk our dog.”
About: I have taken care of my neighbors’ and family friends dogs since 2015 ranging from English bulldog to Chihuahua to full size labradoodles. I have also cared for my own dogs. I am currently working part-time Monday-Thursday and am available after 3pm. I am fully available on Fridays. I work 1 weekend day which does fluctuate between Saturday and Sunday depending on the week - on that work day, I am available before 9:30am and after 6:30pm.

I keep a clean and organized space.
About: I’ve loved caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I regularly walked my family’s dogs and helped neighbors with theirs as well. Most recently, I’ve been a consistent dog sitter for the past six months, staying in a client’s home and caring for their dog while they’re away. I’m reliable, responsible, and adaptable, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away As a college student on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and am available for pet care throughout the week and on weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules and am happy to provide care at times that work best for you and your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and bathroom breaks, and always have fresh water available. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re my own and provide a safe, loving environment.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Villa Park
I had a wonderful experience with this walker! They took great care of my beagle, Bear, and made sure he had a great walk. They were reliable, communicative, and kept me updated with photos and messages. It was clear that they genuinely cared about Bear and treated him like their own. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pet!
Rylan, thank you so much for walking Bruno, he had a wonderful time! Bruno says, "Thanks for letting me stop and snuffle, that's the best part of walking!" I also appreciate that Rylan started walking Bruno a little early, since Bruno and I arrived at the park a little early. 😎👍🏻
Mia's reliability in addition to her care for my Calamity Grace gave me such confidence when I was away. She also was a blessing for my elderly Mom, who is unable to exercise my girl. My mom did insist on her skipping a day, which I understand. Please give her the pay for that day.
I had a great experience with Isabella! She arrived right on time and was very personable from the start. My dog can be a bit timid with new people, but she was wonderful with her — patient, kind, and clearly experienced. Willow returned happily tuckered. I really appreciated the thoughtful feedback Isabella shared after their walk, too. I’d definitely hire her again!
Sydney has been a lifesaver! She has been very patient with my older dog who, although very friendly, can be pretty shy on first encounters. She has gone above and beyond of what is expected of her and has always made it a point to communicate with me throughout the day. I work very long hours and I have noticed how happy my dog has been since welcoming her into his daily routine 😊
This was our first time using the walking service on rover, and we were a bit hesitant at first. But Holly was amazing! She was very communicative and patient with our lengthy list of instructions! We will definitely be using her services again! She went above and beyond and sent many updates

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 Villa Park. 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 Villa Park.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Villa Park. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
