About: I have 10 years of experience as a veterinary assistant and working in a shelter. My home is run by 4 cats! I am very knowledgeable in dog behavior, as well as in the care of both young and old fur friends. I have extensive experience walking dogs of all sizes, so no worries there! I am very flexible, and available at almost any time. I understand you want someone you trust, and is consistent, to be your go-to for looking after your family member. You know your family best. It is my job to make you feel secure with trusting me with such an important task, and to follow all instructions given. As well as to inform you if anything needs to be adjusted, and providing clear communication with you when/if any issues arise.

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs for friends throughout the years. I have experience doing drop in visits, walking dogs, feeding/watering as well as administering medication, letting dogs in and out to use the bathroom, and cleaning litter boxes! I’m currently working part-time, so I have a lot of available free time to take care of your pet(s)! I love playing with and interacting with animals, and would be happy to take the extra time and give the extra attention to keep your baby safe and happy while you’re out! I will take every precaution to keep your pet happy, safe, and healthy. With my cat in the past I would always be the one having to give “difficult” or complex instructions for his care, so I understand firsthand the work it takes to care for a pet and follow the more intricate instructions.

About: My very first job was starting a dog walking business with my sister and best friend when I was 13! I would walk up to two dogs at a time, feed them their meals, spend time with them while their owners were away, and play with them! I now have two of my own dogs that I adore and love spending time with. Throughout the years, my love for dogs and animals has only grown! I have been completing Rover services since May of 2026, and have fallen in love with it as a full-time job! I am available Monday through Friday, and the times are very flexible, as well as weekends as needed. I am looking to see more dogs weekly, so reach out to see if the times works! At my house, we have a fenced in yard, so my dogs roam freely. While on walks, they use a harness and a leash. I am comfortable with putting on all harnesses and prefer to walk a dog with a leash, but if the dog is trained well enough to not need one, I am comfortable with that as well.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life — I’ve had both dogs and cats in my home since birth, and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. Currently, I share my home with a Standard Poodle, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and two dog-friendly cats who are all well-socialized and used to visiting pets. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I’m always happy to arrange a video call or an in-person meet and greet beforehand — whatever helps give you peace of mind. Why pet parents choose me: • Your dog will enjoy a comfortable, home-like environment with plenty of love and attention — not long hours outside unsupervised or crated unnecessarily. • I only board for one family at a time, which allows me to give your pet individualized care and attention while also limiting exposure to unfamiliar animals. • I work full-time from home, so your pet will rarely, if ever, be left alone. • As a Rover customer myself, I know how reassuring regular communication can be. I’m happy to send frequent photo updates and check-ins while you’re away. • I pride myself on being dependable, reliable, and attentive. Whether it’s boarding, walks, or drop-ins, you can count on me to be punctual and fully committed to your pet’s care. • I do not require crating for dogs who are not normally crated at home. I want your pet to feel as relaxed and comfortable as possible during their stay. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and completely at home while they’re with me — and for you to feel confident knowing they’re being cared for like family. I work full-time from home Monday - Friday, but I am able walk and care for pets on my breaks and lunch hour. My work schedule is extremely flexible. I will care for your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether that means belly rubs, head scratches, cuddles, treats, playtime, or simply quiet companionship, I’ll tailor my care to your pet’s individual personality and needs. And if your pet prefers their space or is more independent, I’ll always respect their boundaries and comfort level. For drop-in visits, I’m open to watering plants, taking out trash, bringing in mail etc. in addition to caring for your pet(s). Just let me know what you need done!

About: ​As someone who loves staying active and spending time outdoors, transitioning into dog walking was an easy choice. I know how important regular exercise and mental stimulation are for a dog’s health and happiness, and I’m here to make sure your pup gets exactly what they need while you’re busy or at work! I am regularly available for dog walking every Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. Whether your pup needs a mid-day energy break while you are at work or a weekend stretch, my routine on these days is completely dedicated to getting your dog outside, active, and well-cared for. I look forward to fitting seamlessly into your weekly schedule! Because I am visiting your home, my priority is maintaining a secure, clean environment while ensuring your pup has a fantastic, safe break in their day.

About: I have been taking care of pets for about 10 years professionally,but have had pets my entire life. I have experience with dogs,cats, and domesticated farm animals! I am happy to help with any and all aspects of pet care! I work as a nanny during the week but I am available to provide care before and after my nanny jobs. I am happy to stay overnight with pets to make them as comfortable as possible while their owners are away. I prefer to care for animals at the clients home. I find that the animals are much more comfortable that way and able to stick to their regular routine!

About: I’ve always had a pet as a part of the family since I was a kid (cats and dogs) and have loved pet-sitting for friends and relatives over the years. I work part-time nights 10pm-6am, but my husband is home and we always work as a team. Between the two of us, someone is always home. I still have lots of free time to love on pets, go on walkies throughout the day and car-rides/park adventures. I have a very friendly dog in the home who loves to play and cuddle. She is crate trained, if your pet needs some extra space in the house. We go for multiple walks a day, as I have an unfenced yard. I live in a quiet neighborhood with walking trails and a dog park nearby. I have a spare bedroom which can be used for space or crating, only if needed.

About: Hi! I’m a social work student with a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for dogs. I grew up with dogs and have a strong understanding of their behaviors—what they need, how they communicate, and what that means for the people who love them. I know how much pets are a part of the family, and how important it is to have someone you trust to care for them when you can’t be there. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, dependable, and attentive—not just to animals, but also to the routines, preferences, and peace of mind of their humans. Every pet is unique, and I’m always happy to adapt to their personality and needs with patience, compassion, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just good company, I’m here to support both you and your furry family member. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I’m a student with a flexible schedule, and spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy and find grounding. Whether it’s early morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening check-ins, I’m happy to build my day around making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow any routines or preferences you have—whether that’s specific feeding times, walk schedules, or little quirks your pet loves. With my own dogs, I’ve used positive reinforcement to teach commands and tricks, and I’m always gentle and encouraging. I bring that same approach to every animal I care for—lots of praise, patience, and treats (if allowed!). I also pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can respond to your pet’s needs in real time, whether they’re feeling playful, anxious, or just want some quiet company. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, seen, and loved—just like I’d want for my own.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other pets since I was 13 years old. It started with friends, then expanded to friends of friends, and as word for around of my services I’ve expanded to acquaintances of friends as well. I have owned dogs in the past, and currently own a cat. Animals, and children, are my true passion. I I have no work commitments outside of time dedicated to your pet. I’d love to meet you, and help out with your anything you need! Thanks :) I have no work obligations outside of freelance work at my discretion, which gives me ample time to spoil your fur babies as if they were my own. I love spending time with my cat, although he usually prefers his cardboard box to my lap. I am a huge animal lover and will ensure that I give your pet the best care, specifically in the way that suits you and your pets needs.

About: Grew up with dogs of all kinds. In our family home, we’ve raised a purebred Boxer and a Lab/Rottweiler mix. I personally adopted a pit mix in 2017, named Milo. I grew up in a rural area and have been around animals of all kinds my whole life. While I love just about every animal I meet, dogs will always be my first love. I grew up dog sitting friends, family, and neighbors dogs. I’ve taken care of young puppies to lovable seniors. I’m comfortable giving medication. And belly rubs. I’m a healthcare worker who works 3 days a week on nights. I have not started my new job in this area, as I just moved here from Kalamazoo area. My days are wide open as of right now, and will update accordingly once I get my updated work schedule. I have a 8 year old pit mix named Milo who loves to play. We like to go to parks and long walks whenever we can. Everyone’s rules are different in their home, so we’ll make sure to abide by yours while caring for your fur baby. My boy sleeps in my bed, but if you like your furniture pet free— we will enforce as necessary. I’ll be sure to go over any requests with you!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Westland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Westland on Rover is $29.97 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,031 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Westland. 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 Westland. 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 Westland.

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 walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westland. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.
