“Susana was great! My dog Bella, warmed right up to her. Very responsive and reliable. She also sent plenty of photos which I appreciated. I would definitely book her again next time!”

“Brian is awesome! Such a huge help to me and such a gift to my 5 month old puppy. The walks while I'm at work during the day are so beneficial for my pup so she's not stuck in her crate all day, plus she's getting extra leash training on top of it! Brian is very reliable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Hiring Brian to walk my Sadie is the best decision I've made in a long time.”

“Madelyn is so great with Bernie. It was raining earlier today, and Bernie normally won’t go outside. Not only did he go out with her, he went on a long walk. Thank you!”

About: I have grown up with a dog in my house since I was born. I have taken care of neighbors and friends dogs while they have went on vacation or just out of town for work. Since moving away for college and now graduate school, I am looking for my dog fix since I cannot own one myself With the summer starting and vacations coming up I will do my best to be available for your dogs. I do have other responsibilities such as school and work but I am always 100% with my clients if I will be a good fit for the stay/drop or not. If you are looking to book with me but see my availability is different then what you’re looking for, please still send me a message and I will do my best to accommodate to make it work! Since I am not able to host dogs at my current place of residence, this will allow the dog to feel more comfortable with a stranger coming to take care of them while the owners are away for however long. I will adjust to their routine so they hardly notice the owners are gone. They will receive all the belly rubs and love they could ask for until their owner returns home
“Alicia did an excellent job, she was very patient, loving and caring. She showed much compassion towards my dog who wasn't as willing to go with her. She soon did and together they had such a great time on there walk. I would HIGHLY recommend.”

“Upon meeting Carrie she was kind and professional, on time for my fur babies walk and my dog really liked her. I will definitely contact her again when I need a service in the future. Thanks Carrie!!”


About: I have hands-on experience caring for two dogs in my home at the same time, including my own dog and a young Bernese Mountain Dog. I took care of all their everyday needs, including walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of time outside when the weather allowed. I also consistently worked with both dogs on basic training, commands, and good walking habits. They were both quick learners, and I really enjoyed helping them build new skills while keeping training positive and fun! I have a very flexible schedule and have a lot of control over when I work. I am a substitute teacher, a volleyball skills trainer at T3 Performance, and occasionally work at a restaurant/bar when it fits into my schedule. I am also a head high school volleyball coach for Fairview, so during volleyball season I am typically at the school for about three hours in the evenings. Outside of that commitment, I’m able to adjust my schedule and plan my availability around the needs of the pets I’m caring for! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will make sure to follow their normal schedule and any instructions you leave for me. This can include feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, medications if needed, and lots of love and attention! I can also help stay consistent with crate training, basic commands, or other routines you are working on at home. I know every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to learn their personality and what makes them feel most comfortable. I will also send pictures and updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well cared for!
“Allan was great with our dog! Very punctual, consistent communication, and helped us give medication when we found out our dog wasn’t feeling too well. He spent the whole time with our pup and would highly recommend!”

About: I love animals, having a connection with them where they feel safe to show their personality is the best. Giving love and attention to something that can be a friend, a support, and a comedic genius is awesome. Animals in my life have been found in the forest and on the side of the road with a broken tail. Being able to help them has been so fulfilling and such a passion of mine. I have saved at least 6 cats and 3 dogs that were running around outside. I have also taken in a pregnant cat that had 7 kittens in my bathroom. All the animals I have taken in were able to find great homes or be reunited with their owner. It’s such an amazing experience to be that person that steps in and helps. I am a mom to one child and we love animals, going on walks are our favorite and would love to take your furry friend along with us. I have access to a yard that is fenced in on 3 sides and have a long leash. Close by to an entrance to the metro parks and will take frequent walks. There will be a high energy child running around to provide lots of play with your pup!
About: Experienced and knowledgeable registered veterinary technician hoping to look after your fur babies while your away and give you a piece of mind that they are in safe hands. I've owned animals for over 20 years and love all sizes and shapes of our 4 legged friends. I can come to your house a couple of times out of the day and provide stimulation, food and water and lots of love to your babes! I have owned 2 shih tzu's and a pug that passed. I also have a kitty we have had for about 4 years. I work for a veterinary hospital full time but looking to take on some extra hours so people can go on vacation or out of town. Contact me for more! I have a few days out of the week that i get out of work early to come to your home and can stop by before and after work as well! I can provide any enrichment or medications that you’d like me to give in your home. Follow the guidelines you’ve set up and try to adhere to the same routine as you provide for you pet!
About: I’ve grown up with a dog all my life & cannot wait until I have a nice yard to adopt one of my own! I am no stranger to walks/jogs, throwing the ball or carrying a bag for when the time comes! I have no professional experience with training but would be open to working on commands upon request! I’m currently working from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can work from anywhere so in-home sitting wouldn’t be an issue. I go on walks everyday and think it would be fun to have a buddy to walk around with me! In clients home services would be followed as directed by the client. Feeding schedule, walking schedule, playing, potty break schedule (or litter scooping) would need to be outlined to ensure your pet is receiving the care they need!
“Tyler is a great dog walker! He is very patient, communicative, reliable and awesome with larger breeds! I have an American Bully and he takes time to play with her and lets her sniff around on their walks. Really grateful for his weekly drop ins and walks with my pup! Tyler and Cashmere, have become great walking buddies. 10/10!!”

About: I say the above because for many years, my long time dog buddy, Shelby (pictured in the photo I'm holding), loved to ride in my car, right by my side. Shelby passed away in 2018 and I miss her so much, every day. In 2019, I rescued a blue heeler/beagle mix, Nova; then in 2024, a shepherd mix, Holly. Dogs have been my companions for more than 40 years, and I have loved caring for, walking, playing, vacationing and just plain hanging with them. . I truly love dogs. They are one of humankind's most noble and steadfast animal friends. I would very much enjoy taking your best friend (or friends) for a walk. I have always enjoyed the company of my canines...and I'm sure I'd feel the same way about your four-legged pals. Plus, getting out with them is great exercise...for both dog and human! I am semi retired, so I have much flexibility in the hours that can be devoted to dog walking. I walk my own dogs in all kinds of weather, which is necessary given the variable climate here in NE Ohio! In my own home, my dogs get out for walks at least three times a day, we well as potty breaks where necessary. They have crates where they can freely go to when they wish to. Most important is that the dogs and I adhere to a stable, regular routine, including feeding and playtimes.
About: I have experience helping with both family and friends - dog sitting and housesitting! I enjoy long walks daily so adding a dog into the mix would be great. I work at a local hospital and have a lot of flexibility due to multiple days off. If you need any additional information about myself don't hesitate to reach out to me. I'm that person that most dogs gravitate towards so you won't go wrong choosing me to take care of them. I work only 3 days a week which leaves me with a lot of flexibility during the week and weekends. I decided I needed something fulfilling and enjoyable on my days off and will have continuous days I can dedicate. I have many years of taking care of close friends and family’s animals, I also have nannied previously for families that also have dogs/cats. I treat everyone’s animals as if they are mine. No one should ever feel unsafe or hesitant about leaving their animals with someone and I aim to erase that fear for the owner(s).
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14 and have worked at two kennels (INN to PETS and PetSuites Westlake) , including dog daycare and puppy preschool. I currently work at PetSuites Westlake. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, can administer medications, and always take extra time with puppies, seniors, or dogs with behavioral challenges. Additionally, I have always owned pets and I currently have two family dogs and one personal cat (listed in my profile). I focus on making every pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for like they’re my own. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care. I plan my days around pets’ routines, including walks, meals, playtime, and any special needs, so they receive reliable, attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and maintain a clean, safe environment. I’m patient with puppies, seniors, and pets with anxiety or behavioral challenges, and I make sure owners feel comfortable by providing regular updates.

“Trish is wonderful. This is our first time trusting our Argentine Mastiff with anyone and we couldn't have picked a more perfect person. Trish is very accommodating, communicative, and incredibly gentle & kind. Our girl warmed right up to her and respects her. We will continue to utilize her services and highly reccomend her to anyone else in the Bay Village, OH and surrounding area. Thanks Trish.”

Emilee was so great with our dog, Lou! She was so patient with her when she was anxious during their first meeting. She gave Lou time to warm up without being too forward. She was very detailed in her messages to me and took the sweetest pictures! I have already booked Emilee for our pup again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Westlake on Rover is $24.42 per walk (as of September 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 .

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 Westlake. 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 Westlake.

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 Westlake. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
