About: As of recently, many of my friends, families and coworkers have relayed on my flexibility to care for their beloved fur babies. I have a passion for loving animals and I truly believe they are one of the best gifts in this world. I can assure you, your pets with be overly showered with love (& treats) while you’re away :) I’m currently a full time HR consultant who is looking for some extra income while saving for a home! However, my schedule is extremely flexible and I can work all hours of the day to visit your fury babies (this will change in the new year 2027) My top priority is to make sure your pets feel the most comfortable/loved in their own home. I try my best to ensure they are kept on their schedule and minimize any stressors in the home.

About: I’ve been professionally caring for dogs since 2016, with 10 years of paid experience through a pet-sitting company and private clients. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I have a special soft spot for senior dogs and understand the extra patience and attention they may need. I’m experienced with administering medications, mobility assistance, slower walks, and even stroller rides! As a dog mom to my sweet Theo, I know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality and routine, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog with the same care and attention I give my own! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life! I have a flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends. As a dog mom myself, I'm already used to planning my days around walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love and attention! I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I do my best to accommodate each pet's needs and maintain their normal routine, so they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their family is away. I always make sure I have the time and availability to give every pet the attention and care they deserve! Safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I want you to feel confident knowing they're in loving hands. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where they feel like part of the family. Although I don't have a fenced-in yard, I make up for it with multiple walks throughout the day, plenty of fresh air, playtime, and lots of love and attention! Dogs are always kept on a leash when outside to ensure their safety. I also have a dog of my own, Theo, who can stay with my family during stays if needed. When caring for your pet in your own home, I always respect the space and do my best to maintain the pets usual routines. I want them to feel as comfortable and secure as possible. I also love sending pictures and updates throughout our time together! I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy, safe, and being well care for while you're away. My goal is to give every pet the same love, patience, and kindness I would want for my own!

“Emi-Lu is definitely the person you want caring for your dog when you are gone. She is thorough, detailed, kind, and compassionate. She even texted me this morning to make sure she could find my key and to ask how long our dog likes to walk. Emi-Lu is the best sitter on Rover!!”

About: Dog lover & owner that’s been caring for the pets of my friends and neighbors for years! It all started growing up on 90 acres of farmland. I’ve had the opportunity/experience to work with dozens of different animals. Happy to accommodate puppies, kittens, seniors, and those with health & wellness needs. I am currently self employed as a shipt shopper and am able to schedule my shipt orders around my pet sitting schedule. My pet sitting schedule takes precedence over Shipt. Each pet has individual needs and will be cared for based on those needs. However, most pets tend to be happiest is their own home environments. Having you leave is already stressful enough for them, so let’s not add to that! I am happy to come to you and be with them where they’re the happiest and most comfortable - whether that require overnight stays, or several check-ins for breakfast & dinner, potty & play breaks, etc. Willing and able to accommodate puppies & kittens, seniors, and pets with special needs!

About: I have owned two dogs as pets. One lived to be 17. My dogs I have owned were both spunkie and lots of fun! I also worked in Illinois for a local dog walking/sitter company. I would walk my dogs for 20 I do walks in all kinds of weather. I had 2-4 dogs a week. Frankie a male dog and Ginger an older arthritic dog; they were my regulars. I would end every visit with petting and a treat. I really love my dogs and took very good care of them. Every visit ends with a text to the owner including a cute photo and information on whether the dog peed and pooped. I also volunteer at the Huron Velley Humane Society. My son has had all kinds of animals so if you have a bearded dragon or hamster I am familiar with many different pets. I love the flexibility. I enjoy getting outdoors and I love animals. This is a great combo for me. I’m recently stopped working this will a great way to fill my days. My dog gets a lot of love. I believe the best part of dogs is they are simple they just need attention and love. The last two dogs I had I gave lots of petting and hugs. Dogs also need stimulation whether it be playing fetch or using a Kong or some other activity an owner may have I like to incorporate that into my visit.

About: I’ve always had a dog or cat in my home! Growing up we always had a Golden Retriever :) My most recent dogs were two senior Chihuahua sisters I adopted and one Olde English Bulldog. They have all crossed the rainbow bridge and though I’m not ready to get another pet, I miss having them in my life. One of my seniors had diabetes so I’m trained at administering insulin as well. I’m a stay at home mom of two little boys I share with their dad, though when I have dogs stay with me they stay with their father. For boarding, I live in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of other dogs and great sidewalks for strolls or power walks if needed. I enjoy going for daily long walks myself would love the company. For walks at your home, I never skimp on time outside or if weather doesn’t permit, extra fun and love inside.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I first started pet sitting and dog walking when I was 10 for my family and friends. I recently moved to the area and just bought my first home! Because I'm currently transitioning and looking for a part-time job, my schedule right now is wonderfully open and flexible. This means I have plenty of time and attention to shower your furry family members with love, playtime, and dedicated care while you're away. I will attend and care for your pet in the best possible manner. Making sure to interact with your pet. I will keep you updated on how your pet is doing.

She went above and beyond expectations and I could see the difference when we got home! Mav is usually pretty upset when we get back from a trip but he was in great spirits.”

About: I’ve always been the person animals gravitate toward. I grew up with cats and later had two Italian Mastiffs, so I’m very comfortable with both small pets and big, strong personalities. I almost became a vet at one point, but after shadowing, I realized my heart just couldn’t handle that side of things. What I do love is creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for animals to just be. In my day-to-day life, I run my own business and come from a background in events and marketing, so I’m naturally very detail-oriented and respectful of your space. I’m also a competitive figure skater, which means I’m disciplined, reliable, and consistent especially when it comes to routines and care. I keep a flexible, self-managed schedule, which allows me to be very intentional with the time and care I give to each home and pet. I’m able to adapt to your pet's routine and make sure visits feel consistent, calm, and reliable while you’re away. I approach pet care in a really intentional, calm way. I let animals set the tone and focus on creating a safe, low-stress environment where they can feel comfortable. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to your home. I follow routines closely, keep things tidy, and make sure everything is locked up and secure. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a space that feels just as you left it.

About: I absolutely adore all animals, especially dogs! I have been caring for and house sitting dogs of all breeds since I was 15 years old. Throughout my experience, I have cared for both puppies and senior dogs making sure to adapt to each dog's unique personality and needs. I have grown up and lived with dogs my entire life, so I understand the importance of providing them with love, attention, and exercise. I am highly attentive, reliable, and committed to satisfying both the pet’s and owner’s needs. I am currently a student; however, I have a very flexible schedule, and can tailor my schedule towards the needs of my clients. I can work weekends. I am a focused and hard worker and will make sure your pet is cared for to the best of my ability. I love all animals and want to make sure that their needs are met through exercise, love, and care.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have been actively caring for them from a young age. I grew up with four dogs and over ten cats, and when my parents got kittens for me in third grade, I learned the responsibility of daily feeding, litter care, grooming, and monitoring their health — along with how to truly bond with and care for animals. In sixth grade, I helped raise and train a puppy of my own, which gave me hands-on experience with leash training, house training, basic commands, and understanding puppy behavior. Over the years, I’ve cared for both large and small dogs, as well as pets of all ages — from energetic puppies and kittens to senior animals who require extra patience and gentle attention. I also helped care for my senior cat who had been with me my whole life, which taught me a great deal about the special needs of aging pets. In addition, I’ve walked dogs and provided pet sitting for friends and families, always keeping routines consistent and stress-free. I have experience walking reactive dogs and have learned how to calmly de-escalate situations, as well as how to approach and build trust with more timid animals. I've learned the importance of learning and adapting to each pet's unique needs. I’m comfortable handling a wide range of temperaments and energy levels, and I always prioritize safety, attentiveness, and consistency, because every pet deserves thoughtful care. I’m currently a student at the University of Michigan and have flexibility between classes, which allows me to provide dependable daytime and evening care during the school year. In the summer, when I’m not in classes, I work part-time and have even more availability - I’m especially excited to take on more Rover bookings during that time. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I stick closely to feeding schedules, make sure fresh water is always available, and provide walks, playtime, and enrichment based on their usual energy level and personality. I pay attention to their behavior and body language so I can quickly notice if anything seems different. I’m also very respectful of your home, keeping things tidy and secure, while making sure your pet feels relaxed, safe, and cared for (and have fun!) in their familiar space.

About: Do you want your animals to have the VERY best care possible while you’re away? Because that’s with me. I was born into an animal family. My parents both vet techs and grandpa a veterinarian. We had every kind of pet growing up and today I have 2 dogs, a Bengal cat and chickens. I love all animals and will care for them as my own <3 I am a realtor and interior designer, and I make my own schedule. I will be sure to prioritize your pets and work around them :) I am a full time mama to my girls! I homeschool and therefore I am home a lot of the day. I have 2 friendly dogs, 2 kids, 3 adorable kitties and chickens, but they are pretty temperamental lol ;) All jokes aside, your animals would be super safe here and almost never alone. For my drop-in visits and dog walking care, I LOVE to bring my girls along with me! So kid friendly pets are the best and they sure do wear out your fur babies on our visits! 😃

“Cleo is clearly very knowledgable about dogs. Our shy dog did not warm up to Cleo and they didn't push it. They gave our pup distance and treats and stayed nearby but didn't force our dog to walk when he was feeling hesitant. Cleo seems to have the patience to work with any kind of dog. They were also very communicative throughout the meet and greet and booking process. Thanks Cleo!”

FAQs for Dog Walking - Whitmore Lake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Whitmore Lake is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $21 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 3,288 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Whitmore Lake. 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 Whitmore Lake. 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 Whitmore Lake 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 Whitmore Lake. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
