Alyssia was great! She learned all my pup’s training commands and brought her back exhausted! This was my first Rover but it won’t be last.

Julia was wonderful with our dogs, and her communication was excellent throughout the entire process. She was incredibly patient, quickly bonded with them, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets. We highly recommend Julia and would gladly have her care for our dogs again! Shannon

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I absolutely love animals. I’ve taken care of puppies and my current dog is a senior, so i’m comfortable with high and low energy pets.

I’m available at any time of the week and love all kinds of pets. I am comfortable with all sizes of dogs, cats, and any other furry friends of all ages! I’m able to handle big dogs on a leash as well.

About: I have experience with many animals, ranging from dogs to horses. I have been responsible for animal care for the last 7 years. I have experience with reactive dogs as well as seniors and puppies. I can handle the energetic pullers, but can also train them to stop pulling. I can train a few basic commands. I also have experience with senior and disabled animals. I am a student and a part-time employee! With no summer classes and short shifts ranging from 4-6 hours, I will have lots of free time this summer! I am very flexible and would love to accommodate your pet's schedule! I am very attentive to all animals under my care. I will always have my eyes on them and I love to provide enrichment activities.

About: Since I was little, I was around animals all the time. My mom‘s cat lady gene was very strong, because I have six very special cats myself: Ruby (an orange tabby with three legs), Freya (a long-haired dilute torbie), Luna (a silly calico), Phoebe (a tortie with white socks), Callisto (a gray teddybear who came to us as a yard stray) and Poe (void cat who was born in our house). Although I do not want the commitment of adding a dog to the mix full-time, I also love taking care and playing with all puppers! I work full-time during the week, but I have a flexible work times. I can schedule walks and check-ups early in the mornings and starting after 5 pm in the afternoon. I am available most weekends, both Saturday and Sunday. I will familiarize myself with your space and where your pets are allowed. It is important to me to understand if your pet will try to test limits and rules with me that might apply in your home. Both cats and dogs react differently to strangers, so it is important for me to not force them to interact if they want their space.

I contacted Catherine at the very last minute because Wag canceled 30 minutes prior to a scheduled walk. Catherine was awesome. She came right over and took Stella on a walk for me. She sent me pictures and kept me updated. I won’t be booking a walk with Wag ever again... I will be using Catherine instead!

About: I've been pet sitting for four years, caring for 15+ animals ranging from dogs and cats to fish. Whether it's overnight stays at your home or multiple drop-in visits throughout the day, I make sure your pet stays comfortable, safe, and on their routine while you're away. Your home and your pet will be treated with the same care I'd give my own. As a student with a flexible schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my day. I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits throughout the day, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Your pet will never feel like a gap in someone's busy calendar. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you're away. I'll follow your feeding schedule, walk and play with them on their usual schedule, keep their space clean and tidy, and give them plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you always know how they're doing. Your home will be treated with the same respect and care as my own.

About: What sets me different from others is the genuine connections I have with Dogs. A Dog is a man bestfriend and I love that quote. I single handedly trained all my dogs and others. Took time out to build that trust, connection, and loyalty to make sure we trust each other and be there for each other. I currently just graduated school. I went to Troy University out of high school and transferred to the University of Mississippi for my final year. Right now I have alot of free time on my hands and can work around any schedule. I care for pets the same way I care for a human. But also with the understanding the dog has to know your the “Top Dog” in a sense so it knows to respect you and not turn against you.

About: I’m a caring, dependable, and attentive pet sitter who will treat your pets like they’re my own. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, and I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic routines, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog has their own needs, so I’ll make sure to follow your instructions and keep their normal routine as much as possible. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for! Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give each pet the attention they deserve. I can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of love throughout the day. I’m also available during the week and on weekends and will always make sure your pet’s normal routine is followed. I do have classes Monday-Thursday but they are short. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and any special needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I’ll also provide updates and pictures so you can feel at ease while your pet is in my care.

About: If I were to be asked my superpower of choice, I’d tell you I already have one. Never in my 23 years of life have a met an animal I couldn’t work with, including the mean old cat my mother inherited. I take pride in my work of taking care of animals, and find it equally as rewarding seeing pet parents not have to worry about their babies in my care. From juggling my own zoo at home, to being introduced into the Pet Care business as a teenager working at an equestrian barn, I have honed my skills at prioritizing the wellbeing of animals and their happiness. With a bleeding heart and nerves of steel, I will love your pets as much as you do. I will clean their messed with understanding, play with them to enrich their brains, note any worrying conditions or details to you with urgency, and overall be the sitter you’d wish to hired again and again. My schedule is open and booked first come first served. My long term plans are to start school again in the spring to further my education and professionalism working with animals, but until then pet sitting is my first priority. Working with horses, I’ve developed a patient and calm disposition towards aggressive or scared behaviors. I try not to overwhelm any animal, and allow them to grow accustomed to my presence before I take part in whatever needs to be done. Meeting with said pets for the first time is a bit tricky, but I make it a habit for the first meeting to be with owners before services are rendered so both the client and myself are sure the animal(s) will be ok.

About: I have stayed in homes for several days caring for three dogs, ensuring they received attention, exercise, and routine care. I’ve also provided traditional pet sitting services, checking in on dogs, feeding them, and taking them for walks. I am extremely detail-oriented and committed to following all instructions exactly as given to ensure pets remain comfortable, safe, and happy whether they are in their home environment or mine. I am a college student home for the summer and I am working a part time job 20 hours per week at Lake Forest Racquet Club. Therefore, I have a very flexible schedule as I usually only work from 7 A.M. to 12 P.M. four days a week. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize safety, structure, and stimulation. In a client’s home, I strictly follow all instructions and respect their space while maintaining a calm and clean environment for the pet. In my own home, I ensure pets receive plenty of attention, mental stimulation, and physical activity through regular walks and playtime. I truly strive to create a comfortable setting where pets feel secure and cared for at all times!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Western Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Western Hills on Rover is $30.52 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 185 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Western Hills. 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 Western Hills. 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 Western Hills.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
