“Absolutely wonderful experience! Our Weimaraner and Puggle were clearly happy and comfortable while staying at Stephen’s home. He kept me updated with regular messages and sweet pictures, which really gave us peace of mind. He was attentive, responsible, and clearly loves animals. We felt completely at ease leaving them in his care. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with him again.”
About: I have an older cat who means the world to me, so I understand how important it is to find someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely caring. Since I work from home, your cat will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I also make it a priority to send regular updates and photos because I know how reassuring they are. I work from home, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m around throughout the day for feedings, playtime, litter box care, and companionship, and I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. I live in a clean, calm condo and prioritize safety at all times. I keep doors and windows secure, maintain a pet-friendly environment, and closely follow each pet’s routine and instructions.
“Genesis was wonderful with Murci, From the very beginning, she showed so much love, responsibility, and a great connection with him. She kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was clear that Murci really enjoyed his time with her. I’m sure he’s going to miss her (and so will we!). Thank you, Genesis, for walking and caring for him with so much love. Highly recommended!”
“very quick responses. great communication all around and updates during walk. followed instructions well. treated my dog with care. will book again in the future.”
About: I am a dog mom to a 6 year old goldendoodle and have had cats & dogs my whole life. I love to care and nurture animals as they are such precious beings. I've dealt with all breeds, ages, and sizes of dogs with different treatment protocols. I pay very close attention to detail and will provide the same care you provide because I know how important it is. I truly love nurturing and find it my calling! I am transitioning out of corporate life as a marketing director and am wanting to do this full time as this is makes me more happy in this season of life :) With that being said, I am free everyday to care for your pets! At home my dog is fully trained and has full capacity to roam the house. I also care for animals that need to be crated, limited by space, and more. I am willing to always abide by the rules that are set with each family. Every pet has their own way of life.
About: I have owned several dogs since I was 7 years old. From feeding to walking and playing, I’m well versed on how to take care of them and give them love! ❣️ I currently work full time office hours, so I can drop by after 7:00 pm for a visit/walk! I have open availability during the weekends 😊 I cannot board pets at the moment. I have a cat and my landlord only allows one pet per unit.. 🙁 I’m available for drop in visits and walks!
“I really appreciate Mikaela! She came last minute and patiently introduced herself to my Shadow as this was their first meet up and he was nervous. Things turned out well and all goals were met!”

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for cats and dogs, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I come from a family that has always had both cats and dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my daily life. I truly love animals and enjoy spending quality time with them, playing, giving attention, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also like to keep everything clean and organized so your pets can stay relaxed and you can have peace of mind too. My cat is also very friendly with dogs, which has helped me become even more comfortable understanding different pet personalities and behaviors. At the moment, I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets I care for. Feel free to contact me so we can find a routine and schedule that works best for you and your pet. Currently, I mainly offer care in the client’s home, especially because I enjoy keeping pets comfortable in a familiar environment and maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. I have plenty of experience with dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them, from walks and playtime to simply keeping them company and making sure they feel safe, calm, and well cared for. With cats, I’ve noticed that many tend to feel more relaxed staying in their own space, so I’m happy to do regular visits throughout the day to give them attention, care, food, clean spaces, and companionship while you’re away.
About: I have been caring for street cats and some dogs since I was eleven, both in my grandmother's neighborhood and my own. Additionally, I can train your pet; I've successfully taught my two-year-old cat four tricks: Sit, Paw, High Five, and Turn. Taking care of pets fits smoothly into my daily and weekly routines, especially since I just graduated from trade school. This gives me plenty of time to focus on their needs. It’s wonderful because it means I can give them the attention and care they deserve without feeling rushed or pressed for time. Taking care of pets in my home or my client's home is about giving them love, attention, and meeting their basic needs. I do want to share that, at the moment, I can't host pets at my own home because of ongoing construction work.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Washington Park
To begin with, Henry is a total gentleman. He is never late to pickup, Dreidel, (our Bernadoodle). He actually is concerned when Dreidel does not defecate.\ He is an extremely ingratiating young man and his knowledge on so many topics, is fascinating. I know that Henry is waiting for his internship at a hospital, but it is our luck to have him walking our dog. In addition to having graduated medical school, he never puts on airs and is just glad to be working. You are very fortunate to have Henry as an employee and we’re evenl luckier to have met him. Fred Tokowitz
Corla is an amazing dog walker! She is reliable, caring, and wonderful with my dog. I have complete peace of mind knowing my furry friend is in such good hands. Her love for animals really shines through, and I couldn’t ask for a better person to care for my pup. I highly recommend Corla to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and dependable dog walker. 10/10
My original sitter fell through the day of my flight, Courtney replied as soon as I sent the booking request and saved the day! She took great care of my girl while I was gone, updated me regularly and went above and beyond during her visits! I will definitely be booking her for my next trip!
Amanda P. did a fantastic job for our boy Cletus while we were on vacation for a week. She was always prompt and gave great report cards for each walk very detailed in her performance and is trustworthy with our pets. We will definitely be using her services for future needs I highly recommend this young lady. Thank you for the wonderful job Amanda 😀
Taylor is absolutely amazing! Her communication is always great, and she is incredibly reliable and caring. She walks Alaska twice a week for me, and I feel so lucky to have found someone I trust so much with him. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s in great hands when he’s with her. I truly appreciate everything she does for us and couldn’t recommend her enough!
Alyssa was great! I was away for a week, and she came every day to take Zeus on walks around the neighborhood. She was always on time, communication was clear and reliable, and she was wonderful with my pit bull. I felt very comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Would definitely book her again!
Return customer here, and once again Daniel was great with our dog! He kept in communication with us the whole time during the walk, sending us pictures and giving us updates, and even fed him dinner! He followed our instructions to the t and we feel a hugeeeee relief knowing that our pup is in capable and safe hands with Daniel while we are at work.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Washington Park is $11 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $11 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 7,518 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Washington Park. 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 Washington Park. 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 Washington Park 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 Washington Park. 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.
