“Chante was wonderful! She took great care of my pups and cat while my husband and I were in town visiting in our RV. She was incredibly accommodating to our crazy schedule and we so appreciate her taking care of our fur babies while we were enjoying Branson.”
“Linda was very intuitive to Bear’s needs! He’s an old dog with arthritis, and she never pushed him past his limits on their walk. You could tell he was very at ease with her. I appreciate the wonderful care she’s given him!”
“Anastasia (Kristi) was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to help tire our pup out with some exercise, and did some bonus training and cuddles. Our lab mix Kadee Buggins really soaked it up and we can’t wait to book her again! Very kind. Very professional. Extremely fast response rate and excellent communication with the visit. I felt so at ease and knew my dog was in great hands with Kristi.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for my senior dog and regularly dog sit for friends and family, managing feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and individualized care for each dog! I am a graduate student working full time, and my weekends are flexible, giving me the availability to provide consistent pet care, walks, and check-ins when needed! I prioritize maintaining the pet’s normal routine when caring for them in their own home. I follow all instructions carefully, provide consistent care, ensure safety, and leave the home clean and orderly after each visit.
“Breelyn was my walker for 9 months before I moved away. There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing she is. She saved me on countless situations and would always send cute photos of my dog along with updates on what they did each day. I cannot recommend her enough. Just make sure to reach out early enough because lots of people know how great she is so her schedule fills up quick!”
About: I’ve actually been pet sitting for years and have volunteer experience with the ASPCA. I’ve cared for senior and special needs dogs. We love all pets though I’ve even pet sat lizards snakes and cats. My schedule is pretty flexible I work remotely as a contractor for a big company Monday through Friday. Although I’d prefer daytime bookings let me know what you’re needing My dogs eat chicken free food cause our pug is allergic. Mushu’s special care is we wipe his wrinkles & ears daily with a weekly bath. Buddy is a tank who can eat anything but he needs his paws trimmed once a month. Buddy deals with anxiety from being a sheepdog with no sheep so he has lots of toys and an occasional cbd treat.
“Katie is amazing! She came over and helped sooth my new puppy mom anxiety by making sure luna was taken care of, fed, and let out! She stayed to play with luna, which was not necessary, but greatly appreciated!”
About: I have grown up with a variety of pets and have come to consider them all a part of the family. From Geckos to Hermits, Fish to Frogs, and Cats to Dogs, I've housed a variety and have loved them all to the core! I am particularly familiar with Medium sized dogs, but I am no stranger to the big, the bad, or the snugly. For cats, I can be a bit squeamish when it comes to litter, but that is nothing a mask or a nose clip won't fix! As a full time college student, online classes allow my schedule to be very flexible. My grades are important, but nothing motivates me more than a happy pet and a satisfied customer! As someone who understands that home is a place to escape the daily riff raff, I am willing to keep visits as quick and simple as possible or as long and engaging as preferred. A meet and greet is encouraged so I can better understand the needs of your pet and so that the pet and I can become familiar.
About: We are a small scale homestead and have great experience with a vast assortment of animals including farm. We have taken on Turkeys, Rabbits, Ferrets, Goats, Chickens Dogs and Cats and fish, and sheep. I am a homebody and enjoy staying here on the homestead. I'm available every week. I am a stay at home goat farmer so my schedule is pretty open. We have a fenced in back yard half acre paddock here on the homestead. If it can keep goats in, it can keep in anything. We try to keep everything happy as possible. Like our rabbits have an exercise pen so they get fresh grass and are able to do some free exploring and play. We also have a quarantine pen we are able to keep farm animals who need their own solo care.

I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with two outdoor dog parks. I will make sure to keep your dog entertained with a full belly!
About: I've always had the ability to easily connect with dogs. I've spent the past ten years walking and socializing rescue animals as a volunteer at the Humane Society. I've worked with every age range, from puppies to senior dogs in hospice care. I bring that experience with me each and every time I work with an animal, as each and every animal is unique. Pet care is a part of my everyday life. I'm currently working part-time, leaving me with plenty of time during the day to take care of both my animal, and yours. I also volunteer my free time at the Humane Society. Communication is key. I'll set up guidelines and boundaries with you ahead of time, making sure each animal has their specific needs met during the visit. Leashes will always be used on walks and doors will always be closed and locked when not in use. Do you have certain areas, rooms, or furniture that are off limits? Boundaries will be set up and respected to ensure that both your pets and home will be treated with respect.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 386 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Willard. 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 Willard. 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 Willard.
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 Willard. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
