“Emily was super sweet towards my two pups. She has an obvious love for animals. My two pups really enjoyed her visit and were very comfortable around her. That’s always a good sign, in my opinion. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Alex was great. I appreciated that he took the initiative to schedule a meet and greet before walking Shadow. I got a good vibe from our conversation and meet and greet. Alex seemed comfortable with instructions on handling Shadow's fear/aggression reaction to other dogs. And he was amenable to feeding Shadow on walk day as my neighbor, who usually feeds my animals when I'm away, had a conflict. I was so grateful for that! Lastly, I appreciated the update given with Shadow's walk, letting me know that everything had gone well. I will use Alex again when needed, and highly recommend him to others.”
“I couldn’t be happier with Melissa! She is always punctual, respectful, and sweet with my dogs. I WFH but don’t have time to walk them most weekdays so it gives me peace of mind knowing Melissa gives my dogs time to be outside! She takes the cutest pictures of them during walks—it brightens my day and reassures me that they’re happy and well cared for.”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful with Juno. She was always incredibly attentive, caring, dependable, and genuinely seemed to care about her well-being. Juno passed away a few weeks ago, and looking back, I’m especially grateful knowing that when I couldn’t be there, she was in the hands of someone who treated her with so much kindness and compassion. It was obvious that Emily didn’t simply see taking care of Juno as a job, she truly cared about her. That meant more to me than I can adequately put into words, particularly as Juno got older and needed a little extra attention and patience. I would recommend Emily without hesitation to anyone looking for someone they can trust with a pet they love. I’ll always be grateful for the care, kindness, and affection she showed Juno.”
About: I have taken care of many different dogs and cats throughout my life, from neighbors to strangers I have helped many different people with their animals These days and times that are listed are what’s best for me, but I can definitely be flexible and work something out with you to best fit your schedule. I can adapt to any pets personality so long as I know what its boundaries are. I would like to be informed as thoroughly as possible as to how your pet behaves so I can provide the highest quality care.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. My family dog was mine to care for growing up and I currently share my home with two cats. In my role as an assistant, I also help care for a dog regularly so I’m comfortable with day to day routines like feeding schedules, walks, and general upkeep. I frequently cat sit for family members too so I’m experienced with a range of personalities and needs from playful and social to more independent and lowkey. I work part time as an assistant but my hours are flexible so I have plenty of availability to fit pet care into my routine. I’m able to work around your pet’s schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, or whatever they need. I do my best to match each pet’s energy and make them feel comfortable and safe. I stick to their normal routine, feeding times, walks, and favorite spots so there’s as little disruption as possible. I pay attention to whether they want to play or chill and I always make sure the home is locked up and left just how I found it.
About: What sets me apart is that I’m not just a sitter—I’m a dog mom myself, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pup with someone. I treat every dog like they’re my own, with genuine love, patience, and attention to detail. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I’m here to give them the same care and comfort they’d get at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available for early morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening snuggles. I also offer overnight care for those who need a loving presence while they’re away. My routine can easily be tailored around your pet’s feeding, walking, and potty schedule. Pet care is a huge part of my life — it’s not something I fit in, it’s something I prioritize. From daily walks with my own dogs to checking in on client pups, I dedicate specific time each day to ensure every dog gets quality care, play, and attention. I always plan my day around their needs, not the other way around. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, safety and comfort always come first. I create a calm, structured environment and supervise interactions closely. I keep a close eye during walks, use secure leashes, and never leave pets unattended. In your home, I respect your space and routines, following any special instructions you leave. I also send plenty of updates, photos, and videos so you always feel connected and reassured.
“Bristol, is an incredible dog walker. She constantly kept me updated on how the walks went with the notes and pics. She went above and beyond with her commitment to walking my dog. Walking her in snow, and extreme cold and windy conditions. She made leaving my pets for a week 1000% less stressful knowing they were in kind and good hands. I would 1 million percent book with her again for future trips. Thank you Bristol!!!”
“Fatima is great! Very efficient and does a great job with my strong pittie who loves going outside. Also very communicative with how he’s doing and is punctual with our appointments. Thank you!”
“Mel was so great with Jack! It’s so clear that she loves dogs and they love her too. She’s now my go to for all the dog walking and care needs I need help with. Can’t recommend enough”
“Forest was super patient with our dog, Carmela, who tends to be nervous around new people. They were super communicative with me and made sure Carm had everything she needed. Thanks again!!”
“Kelly is a superb walker for my little Mimi. She takes great care of Mimi's well being, especially on these cold days, and has built a wonderful loving and playful relationship with her. Thank you Kelly!”
“Teju did a great job with Luna, who instantly liked her. Teju was kind, attentive, and clearly great with dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving Luna in her care and would absolutely recommend her.”
About: I have trained many dogs including the two I have now, a border collie and a mutt, who are currently on vacation. I’ve taken care of many neighbors and family friends’ dogs of all ages as well, walking, feeding, and playing with them! I currently am not working as I am moving to Australia in October, so I am free almost any day and anytime to care for your dog! I have a dog-friendly home with a crate, fenced-in back yard, and toys and treats galore located in an extremely dog friendly neighborhood
About: I have been a vet tech and animal educator in the past. I’m very flexible with scheduling, and understand last minute things come up. I am happy to work with whatever pet needs you have! For locals I can pop in as often as needed, I’m happy to be flexible with your needs. My availability right now is wide open. I am comfortable with pets that need medical care, pets that are less comfortable with people/strangers/ other animals, and the less common pets. I believe in full transparency, and will provide your pets with the care you would give them yourself.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Willow Springs
Melissa was fantastic! She took Archie (my dog) on walks and was very mindful of his needs. Asked very important questions prior to initial walk and I felt safe letting her walk my pup. She was also very accommodating to last minute scheduling, which I was very grateful for. Definitely recommend!
Emily was absolutely wonderful with Juno. She was always incredibly attentive, caring, dependable, and genuinely seemed to care about her well-being. Juno passed away a few weeks ago, and looking back, I’m especially grateful knowing that when I couldn’t be there, she was in the hands of someone who treated her with so much kindness and compassion. It was obvious that Emily didn’t simply see taking care of Juno as a job, she truly cared about her. That meant more to me than I can adequately put into words, particularly as Juno got older and needed a little extra attention and patience. I would recommend Emily without hesitation to anyone looking for someone they can trust with a pet they love. I’ll always be grateful for the care, kindness, and affection she showed Juno.
Samantha was amazing! She took such great care of Arya while we were out of town and was incredibly reliable, communicative, and sweet with her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Arya was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Samantha and would happily book with her again! 💛
Emily was the best with our pups! She’s super attentive to their needs and makes sure they’re well taken care of. I also really appreciate her detailed notes and photos, makes me feel reassured that the pups are in good hands! Will definitely book again, she’s a true animal lover and shows it!
Fernanda is amazing! She has been my weekly walker for a while now, and I couldn’t recommend her more! She is very responsive and thorough in her communication. Lydia (my 5 month old puppy) loves walks/playtime at the dog park with Fernanda and appreciates all the water bowl refills, busy treats given, and times she’s had to clean up messes!
Jacqueline is incredible!! Super kind and was able to walk my boy on such short notice. She took the time out of her day to even stay longer with my dog and make sure he was taken care of. Also such an excellent communicator and shared so many photos for me to see how my boy was doing. He looked so happy. Can’t thank you enough!! 🐾🐾🩷
Teju Did a great job walking our 9 year old pup. It was nice for her to ask for a meet and greet prior to. She stayed in constant communication with us from the time we scheduled all the way until after they finished their walk. Teju showed up right on time and even offered to feed our Cooper. We would definitely use Teju again when the time comes.
All I can say is, Alex. Alex is the man with the master plan. Communication is key and Alex unlocked it. Thank you for taking great care of my baby love. There’s nothing more scary than leaving your prize with someone to care for and does an exceptional job. I will rebook Alex again and again. Bravo!!
Skyler is absolutely amazing! She cares for my dog while I am away at work and ensures she gets a full mile walk in just a half hour. She shares all the droppings my pup performs and sends pictures every time. It’s a shame she is only here for the summer because I would happily hire her year round.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Willow Springs on Rover is $21.8 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 .
As of September 2026, there are 15,458 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Willow Springs. 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 Willow Springs. 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 Willow Springs.

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 Willow Springs. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
