“Carrianne was able to help us with a last minute walk for our dog. She took the time to stop by the day before to meet him. We appreciated the help and would book her again if the chance comes up!”
“Melissa is wonderful with my pup! She understands cues from my pup, and gives her the time she needs to reacquaint before the walk. Melissa responds in a timely manner to my texts. Wish I could keep her, but I am out of her desired range for clients; she is doing me a favor until I can find someone else to walk my dog on a regular basis.”
“Jodi is so great! She is very flexible with my last minute booking and has been great with our dog! She presents with great communication as well! Would recommend!”
“Travis is phenomenal! Very respectful of my home and pets needs! Communicated quickly and was flexible to my pets needs and any changes that came up, especially with our puppy. He takes amazing photos too, I loved every single one he sent as an update! Super trustworthy!”
About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day on the weekends. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.
“Jessica took the best care of Max! Her communication was impeccable and you could see the quality in her care she provided for our dog. We could tell Max looked forward to his walks with her. We would highly recommend her care with anyone’s pet!”
“I needed a walker yesterday because I couldn’t be physically away from my home, so I was there when Andrew arrived. He texted when he was on his way, arrived promptly, and spent a couple of extra minutes greeting Rosie, on her level, letting her check him out and get comfortable with him - I was pleased. When they were out walking, a friend happened to see them and called me to tell me that she was impressed with how patient and gentle he was with her. He obviously made a positive impression on Rosie because she was very excited when he returned in the afternoon for her 2nd walk. I will definitely use Andrew for my future needs.”
“My dog gets excited when she hears that her friend Daniel has arrived for their afternoon walk. He seems to enjoy his time with her as well and is very kind and communicative. I've only had positive experiences with Daniel.”
“Ana takes Bella, my 1yo Golden Retriever, on 2 walks a week so Bella can stretch her legs when I’m on too many work conference calls. Ana is prompt, Bella loves her and Ana gives me a detailed report and pictures through the app each time. I highly recommend Ana and am so glad to have her walking Bella.”
“Jan has been great, and Gizmo loves her! She will take him for walks, be sure he goes potty, and play with him in the yard for a bit. Jan is also flexible should a scheduling conflict arise. She truly loves dogs and looks forward to seeing Gizmo a few times a week!”
About: I thrive on the energy a dog brings to the family, and I promise to take the best of care of your fur baby. My 16 year old Yellow Lab recently passed away due to an old age-related illness. But my heart is still thankful and happy to help you with your dog when you can’t be home to love on him/her. I can walk, run, and play with your dog at your home or mine. Please contact me with any questions whatsoever. Thanks so much. Also, I’m a teacher and I work about 8 minutes away. My schedule for Rover pups: Monday-Friday: I leave home at 8AM, and return home for the remainder of day at 12:45PM. Weekends: I’m home all the time, unless I run out for a quick errand. Additionally, June through August, I am available all day, full-time. When boarding your dog at my home, I’ll care for his/her safety and make sure he/she feels loved. Outside, your dog will always be on leash and will be my sole focus. Inside, there will be no chewing/safety hazards. NOTE: For care not in my home, my drop-in care and dog-walking rates are $13 per 10 minute increments within the Whitefish Bay area. I am able to provide longer care/walks and/or travel outside of the WFB area at an increased rate.
About: I am a animal lover and previous pet owner. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, birds, fish, rodents, you name it!. I have worked with many animals and am comfortable grooming, walking, feeding, playing with and caring for your pets. I have been a volunteer and youth leader with Safe Humane Chicago and have participated in many of their programs. I think every pet I’ve met has shown me how to be more patient and kind.I have seen how owners truly care about their pets and his or her safety and that shows me just how much they love them as an important part of their family. If you are interested I would love to hear from you and am available via text or phone call Thanks, -Hannah
“Genesis is everything you’d want in someone taking care of your pet! She was amazing with my senior dog and was a fantastic communicator too! I would highly recommend her services to anyone and will definitely be seeing her again soon! Thanks Genesis :)”
About: Hi, I'm Marissa! I am an experienced dog owner, as I've had my own pup for near 6 years now. I have a strong background caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels. I grew up helping my grandma, who was a Samoyed breeder, so I've been around dogs my entire life and learned early on how to properly care for them. I've had my Aussie since he was 8 weeks, which has made me very comfortable with high-energy breeds and understand how important exercise, attention, and mental stimulation are. Whether your dog needs a quick drop-in, a walk, or just some extra attention during the day, I'll make sure they're not just checked on, but truly cared for and engaged with. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet, even for a short time. I focus on making sure your dog feels safe & comfortable. I am currently offering evening availability on the weekdays starting at 6:30pm Thursday/Friday, and flexible scheduling on Saturday's/Sunday's for drop-ins & walks. I treat every dog like my own and can't wait to meet you and your pup! I am currently working a full-time job, 8am-5pm. I know this creates limited availability, but I am willing to fit in drop-ins and walks after 6:30pm during the weekdays, and will have flexible availability on the weekend. I take my dog on two 30 minutes walks everyday, on top of playing fetch often, & providing training on basics daily. I practice off-leash in areas where it is allowed. I feed morning and evening for my dog, provide lots of cuddles and affection, and make sure play time is priority. That can be through basic training, scent games, DIY puzzles, and running in the park! As for crate training, I did it for a year but have no moved to allowing my dog to snooze next to my bed every night. This set him up for success and created trust between him and I. I focus on trust with my dog 100% of the time, and understand his needs and wants daily. The bond between your pet is so important so I want to make sure I bring that same energy to your pet!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Whitefish Bay
Maggie is great; she's been walking Bella, a Pittie who is often in the seek-and-destroy zone. She is hyper-focused on everything around her, but never on her handler. Bella Francis is my daughter's dog, who has been staying with me for the past three weeks. We hired Maggie to get Bella out on 4 30-minute walks per week, and she was a lifesaver. Thanks for everything, Maggie. If you need a walker who can handle anything and everything with a smile, I would highly recommend Maggie. She is 10 stars!

We are so grateful to have found Mia after bringing home our 8 week old puppy! She fit us in her schedule and took wonderful care of our puppy during her visits while we were at work. She has excellent communication and was quick to reply and follow up! We loved the cute photos she shared after her visits. We highly recommend Mia!
We love Ryan and Delilah! We have been so lucky to have them as dog walkers and house sitters. Ryan sends us the best videos and he is one of the only dog walkers we have had that likes to play with our pup. They always leave our house spotless and we trust them 100%! Wonderful people, highly highly recommended!!
Julia was amazing and incredibly attentive with my dog! Chuchi took to Julia immediately even though she is normally shy around new people. Julia was so sweet with her and is clearly a natural with animals. She made sure to keep me updated on the walk which was very reassuring. I will definitely be rebooking with Julia and highly recommend her!!

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 Whitefish Bay. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
