About: I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have an animal in my life. From shepherds to terriers, I have experience with large, medium, and small dogs. I also have experience caring for cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve trained my own dogs, cared for foster puppies, and have experience handling pets with different needs and temperaments. I’m very open to feedback, learn quickly, and always strive to provide the best care possible. When you book with me, you can expect meaningful, attentive, and reliable care for your pet. Your fur baby will have my full attention, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Rain or shine, I will show up and give every pet the patience, attention, and care they deserve! Over the summer I am working fully from home. Which means I have an open schedule to care for your pets. I am open from morning to night. I can do daily visits, weekly visits, and more. When house sitting for your pets, I prioritize a respectful and responsible approach. I value clear boundaries in my own life, so I make it a point to treat your home and privacy with that same high level of integrity. I’m fully open to your specific rules and feedback, and I’ll keep you connected with consistent updates so you never have to wonder how things are going.
About: I’m just getting started on Rover! I have lots of experience with my own two cats. And I’ve helped with dogs while babysitting kids! I have 7 years of experience in behavioral work with children and lots of those skills can be applied to cats and dogs. It’s official! I’m moving back home to MI! I’ll be available through July 20th with open availability. After that please inquire as I’m not 100% sure when I’ll be in the moving process. Farewell Wisconsin! I have two indoor only cats. They’re both ginger girls so they’re both very social and loving with their dad and I. They love it when we’re home with them to cuddle, get kisses and treats!
About: I am 33, and I have had a wide range of pets my entire life including dogs, horses, and rodents! I currently chicken-sit, dog visit, bird watch, and occasionally have cats grace me with their presence. My dog is 2.5 years old and generally goes with me to tend to the animals, but I can leave her at home if that is a deal breaker! I live my life so Lady can have a very full one. We go on walks, hikes, or runs every day in any type of weather (Thanks to Michigan). My schedule is all over the place but it allows for me to be flexible. Let me know if I can help! I currently work 30-35 hours a week during the summer and I have winter months off. My summer work generally starts around 3:00 and goes until 10 so I have my mornings and early afternoons free. I treat everyone's house like my own! Trust and respect make up the foundation of my life and line of work. These pets are my family and will be treated as such -if you like your family ;)
“Misty was great! She cared for my two dogs for an evening at her house which has a fenced yard so they could be outside much of the time, which they love. She was very loving and caring, and took great care of them. Highly recommended!”
“So glad we chose Angela!! She has been a great fit with our doggo so and goes above and beyond to make share he gets a great walk and lots of attention. She has also been super reliable and provides great updates!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for many years, and I’ve also helped care for my aunt’s dogs, who she groomed professionally. My patient and gentle nature allows me to connect with dogs of all personalities — from energetic pups to shy or nervous ones. I’m attentive to routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or basic training reinforcement. I follow instructions closely and am happy to help with commands, leash manners, or gentle encouragement for anxious dogs. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and plenty of love, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is an important part of my daily life, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need. I plan walks, visits, and playtime around your pet’s routine, and I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and enrichment activities. I’m available most days after 3 PM, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can adjust for regular visits or last-minute needs whenever possible, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I provide loving, attentive care in your pet’s own home, following your routines and instructions closely. I offer walks, playtime, enrichment, and medication if needed, making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
“We’ve had such a great experience with Anna! She’s taken care of our dog multiple times now, and each time she’s been incredibly reliable, communicative, and an absolute joy to work with. Our dog clearly loves her, and we always feel confident knowing he’s in good hands. Most recently, she reached out ahead of time to check in about the weather—specifically the rain and poor air quality—and offered to do a quick bathroom break with indoor playtime instead of a full walk. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness and flexibility, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I'm Bradley! By day, I'm a pilot, which means I naturally bring focus on safety, communication, and extreme reliability to everything I do. But when I'm on the ground, my real passion is hanging out with dogs. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and understand that every pet has their own unique personality. Whether your dog is high-energy and needs a long walk or a shy rescue who needs a patient, calm presence to feel safe, I tailor my care to exactly what they need. My goal is to give you total peace of mind while you're away. Because of my aviation background, I'm a stickler for routine, text updates, and keeping your pets safe and happy. I can't wait to meet your pup! I currently am on an extended break from work so I will be available almost all the time. I update my schedule frequently, so my availability is always accurate. Safety and providing an enjoyable experience are paramount for me. I understand every dog is different and like to provide a tailored experience for my clients. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. I treat every dog as if they were my own, which means double-checking doors, using secure leashes in all public or unfenced spaces, and strictly following any medical or dietary routines you have. I adapt entirely to your dog's comfort level.
“Corrine is great! Seems to really care about the animals, and was focused on making the experience easy, safe and convenient for the whole family. We will be looking to use her again!”
About: With over 35 years of experience owning and caring for both cats and dogs, I provide reliable, safe, and loving care for pets of all ages. I also have experience caring for senior cats and dogs and understand the extra patience, attention, and gentle care they may need. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship and comfort, I treat every pet with kindness and care as if they were my own. I'm currently working part time and very flexible in my job position to attend to your pets needs. Please message to inquire about my availability! I can easily for your pet in the comfort of your home and their environment. I can easily adapt to new environments to meet your pets' needs.
“Laura, you were amazing even in lieu of the issue of getting into the house, totally my fault! Thank you for the pictures and the attention given to the puppers! We appreciate you!”
About: I have taken care of lots of pets growing up. My parents dog is in her senior years so getting a lot of practice with that as well. I love animals but my apartment doesn’t allow me to have a pet, I miss having one around. I work a hybrid position so my schedule can be more flexible on some days! I am also open most nights after the work day and on weekends! I live in an apartment so my home is not the best for a pet at the moment, but I am very respectful in someone else’s space and prefer a clean environment so I will always pick up after myself & your pet.
About: I grew up helping train my grandparents’ corgi, and I still help my sister with her dog when she’s at work — letting him out, feeding him, and taking him for walks. So I’m very comfortable around dogs and can care for them when needed. That said, I naturally connect with cats and prefer working with them, so my services are focused on calm, low‑stress cat care. I work full‑time from home, which gives me a very steady routine and plenty of flexibility for pet care. I can easily step out for feedings, litter scooping, or home check‑ins throughout the day. I build visits around your pet’s normal schedule so they stay comfortable and relaxed. Evenings and weekends are usually open, so I’m able to give consistent attention and keep your pet’s routine running smoothly. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress‑free as possible. I handle feeding, fresh water, litter scooping, and any medications exactly the way you outline. I spend quiet time with your cat so they feel comfortable, whether that means playtime, brushing, or simply sitting nearby while they warm up on their own terms. I can also collect mail or some small house stuff as needed!
About: I love working with all animals from dogs and cats to lizards and parakeets! I have a very flexible schedule for the most part and would work on your time. My past experience was boarding with a Labrador, so big dogs are great for me. I also have done a couple drop ins for a chihuahua and loved him. I am great with all sizes of dogs (and cats). I have a golden doodle of my own and he is 110 pounds so walking and taking care of bigger dogs is no problem! I am going into a veterinary career and would love to be more hands on with all different types of animals. The more the merrier! I would love to watch or walk multiple animals at once! I have an open schedule to care for your furry friends. I would love to take your dogs on an early morning or afternoon walk. I am available in the evenings as well for dinner time or after dinner walks! I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel right at home! I offer a friendly and safe environment where they can relax, play, and get lots of love and attention while you’re away
About: I have been taking care of dogs all my life. I grew up with two and currently have a Husky and Terrier. On the days I am in the office (Typically M-W) I will only be available for drop ins/walks after 2:30 pm and early mornings. I do ask that if you need me M-W that times are flexible, I cannot always do hard set times. When I am WFH, I am available all day. Friends and family over the years have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, stop in and check on them for a simple belly scratch and potty break, all the way to staying the night to give them piece of mind while they're gone. I currently work full time. M-W I am able to stop into clients homes after I get off work, after 3. Thursday and Friday I work from home so besides meetings, I am able to drop in at any time of the day. Saturdays and Sundays I am pretty flexible as well :) Each client is different but I will learn what is best for their pet when I meet them. I won't crate their pet unless asked. Going outside with pets when they're out doing their business, and keeping them on a leash to keep them safe is my standard for caring for anyones pet. The parents know best and I'd follow their rules.
About: I’ve taken care of family pets and my neighbors pets since I was 16. I’ve been a pet parent myself for over 10 years now. I know how important your pets safety/happiness/and comfort is. I take watching your pet extremely serious, my philosophy with Rover is to treat your pet(s) like I do my own. I work a low pressure job from home so I’m home 24/7. This means I’m able to be around your pet and give them all my attention everyday. Most importantly that gives me the freedom to focus on the well being and comfort of your pet. About my home: - very spacious ranch style home. - no stairs, plenty of room for your pet to run around. • VERY LARGE fenced in yard. - I allow my dog Leo to spend as much time as he wants outside. Sun bathing and fetch are his favorite. •I live in a large safe neighborhood. -No major roads and safe environment. Walks are a must! I will treat your pet like they’re my own.
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and other pets for family members and close friends. I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, including feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am dependable, patient, and passionate about animals, and I strive to create an stress-free, positive experience for both pets and their owners. I work only two days a week, giving me plenty of availability and flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available most days and can work around your schedule to ensure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I care for pets in my home by letting them roam wherever they please & make my home their home. And when taking care of them in their own homes I respect their home as if it were my own. I stick to schedules that the animal is on whether that be in my home or theirs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Waterford on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of August 2026, there are 3,554 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Waterford. 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 your Waterford. 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 Waterford.

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 Waterford. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
