About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family and deserve the very best care. I am dependable, punctual, and detail-oriented, and I take pride in following care instructions exactly as requested to help keep your pet comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I have experience caring for pets who require extra attention, including administering medications, monitoring health concerns, following special feeding instructions, and maintaining medication schedules. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or a senior who needs a little extra patience and care, I am committed to meeting their individual needs with kindness and compassion. My husband says we’re not allowed to add any more pets to our family, so I’d love the opportunity to spoil yours instead! My goal is to make both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and to treat every furry family member as if they were my own. As a stay-at-home wife, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable care and accommodate a variety of booking requests. Communication is very important to me, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and quick responses for added peace of mind while you’re away. I am happy to care for pets in either my home or the client’s home, depending on what works best for the pet and owner. I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, exercise, playtime, medication schedules, and lots of love and attention. I follow all instructions carefully and provide regular updates and photos to keep owners informed while their pets are in my care.

“Wow! Zoe is tremendous! I was very hesitant in using Rover with my best buddy Utah because he was getting walked every day by a family friend since he was a puppy. He is now going to be 4 years old in July. The dog walker he had decided to retire from her daily walks with Utah. I had to find someone great to walk Utah on a daily basis. After reading the reviews for Zoe and also seeing that she lived fairly close, I decided to reach out to her. She has been great. She asked great questions up front about Utah and what my needs were caring for him and what she may need to watch out for. Utah absolutely adores her. Zoe has been reliable and has communicated great with me. She lets me know when she arrives, she lets me know how Utah was during the walk and her visit time with him, she lets me know if he peered or pooped, and she sends me pictures of Utah while on their walk. She really likes Utah as well. I think both Utah and Zoe look forward to their daily walks. Zoe is trustworthy, mature, reliable, thoughtful, and caring. She is everything you could possibly want to care for your furry companion that you love so much. I 100% recommend Zoe without hesitation.”

About: Hi we're Sarah & Jared! We are a non-smoking, mature, young couple offering you peace of mind while you are away! We own a 2 year old, 100lb Bernese mountain dog, and 2 cats. Our dog, Winry, is high energy and ready to play with your dog! We will do everything we can to to meet the needs of your fur-baby to assure they are safe, comfortable, and having fun during their stay. We send photos and videos daily during their stay. If you're like us it's hard not to wonder what your pup is up too, if they are having fun, and cared for while you are away. We want to give you that reassurance to ease your nerves. Our dog has been thoroughly trained, she’s not perfect but my husband and I have lots to teach your dog especially with manners 🐶 Both our full time job's allow us to work from home a couple days a week. We coordinate our schedules to try and have one of us home if possible when dog sitting. There may be times we are both unable to be home all day with your pup. However, we ensure that a pet under our care would not be left alone for, 5 hours or more. Our home has a fully fenced in back yard. Our home is dog proofed and safe to play inside and outside. When letting your pup outside we will always step outside with them to make sure they aren't plotting their next escape plan.

“After 2 walks with Mallory, I'm pleased. Jimmy knew what she was here for the second walk. He's tired after, which is what I wanted. I added a pic of him sleeping tonight (1 1/2hrs) after his walk. His eyes are rolled back in his head, and snoring. Mallory is very kind and obviously loves animals. I'm so grateful to have found a great match. Excited to see Jimmy be more active.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m a huge dog lover who has 3 dogs at home. I’m frequently helping out friends or family by stopping by and taking care of their animals when they can’t be around. I’m currently a college student in Lexington, so I will make sure to work around my class schedule when it comes to drop-ins or overnight stays! I’m very flexible and will always find time to make your pet care requests work! I make sure to keep the enviornment exactly as the owner prefers, and make sure to take all safety measures seriously. I make sure to keep everything in order and tidy while respecting house rules. I own 3 energetic dogs who play constantly and run around the yard, so I am definitely used to a little controlled chaos. I can easily take dogs on walks or crate them. I also make sure to check in with the owner and send in pictures of their pet!

About: Hi!🫶🏼 I Would love to help care for your animals in any capacity. I have extensive experience with animals and have worked at a dog boarding kennel in the past in addition to growing up with pets. I have worked with aggressive dogs and am comfortable reading a dog’s cues to prevent escalation. I currently have a Bernese mountain dog who is always down for a play date and a cat who tolerates her antics haha. Bonus- I’m an ER nurse, far from a vet tech, but good for med admin if needed! With that, I do work 3 shifts a week(12 hours) that vary. So while my schedule can be sporadic, it can also be very open! I work full time 3 days a week and use rover sitters myself for those days. My schedule varies, but I am great for last minute needs as long as I’m not working! I try to stick to your pet’s routine and rules! I am also very good at recognizing body language/behaviors and therefore can prevent “incidents” from occurring like aggression on walks. I’m also happy to bring along my Berner for a play date if you’d like!

About: I've grown grown up around animals. I decided to go into the veterinary field. I am most of the way through Vet tech school and plan on taking the Board exam in August. I care for sick animals and happy puppies for a living and wouldn't ask for it any other way. I'm currently working part time at a vet clinic and am taking college classes to become a technician. At home I have 2 cats, a dog, and a rabbit that I care for and love with all my heart. I follow any directions given to me to the letter. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog, I can walk the dogs as many times a day as requested and have space to crate a dog if necessary.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Waterloo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Waterloo is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $17 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 2,353 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Waterloo. 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 Waterloo. 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 Waterloo 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 Waterloo. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
