About: My first job was as a kennel attendant at a doggy daycare from 2017 to 2019. I’ve had pets my whole life, so I know a thing or two about animal care, and I gained even more hands-on experience working with dogs in a daycare setting. I currently do not own any pets, and the photos included are from my time working at the doggy daycare, except for the one with the brown lab, which is more recent. I’m looking for pet-sitting opportunities while I’m on vacation from school and staying at home without pets. I’ve had pets my whole life and also worked as a kennel attendant, so I’m comfortable and experienced with animal care. I have a fully fenced yard, and pets will always be supervised while outside. Inside, they’re welcome to roam freely in a safe, comfortable home. I have a cell phone, so I will be able to send photos and contact the pet owner at any time.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet. I've cared for pets much larger than myself and am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes. I have experience giving medications, following detailed care instructions, and making sure each pet's individual needs are met. I'm also experienced with reactive dogs, as well as anxious dogs and cats. I understand the importance of staying calm, reading body language, and creating a safe, low-stress environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Communication is a priority for me, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep pet parents informed while they're away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for, while giving owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I am fully available during the summer months (June through August), which allows me to provide flexible scheduling for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. During the school year, I work in a school-based setting, so I am available in the evenings and most weekends. I am also fully available during school holidays, including Thanksgiving and Christmas. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure every pet receives attentive, reliable care, exercise, and affection. For the comfort and safety of pets, I primarily provide care in the client’s home. This helps pets stay in their familiar environment and reduces stress, especially for dogs that may be anxious or reactive. I do live in a back house where the property owners have three small dogs, so for safety and to ensure a calm environment, I prefer not to introduce new dogs into that space. I am open to cat boarding on a case-by-case basis. I also have a strictly indoor cat in my home who is well-adjusted and calm around other animals. I am available for overnight stays and in-home care, and I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while following owner instructions closely.

About: I provide reliable, structured dog walks focused on keeping your dog safe, calm, and fulfilled. I have experience working with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, including those who may pull, get distracted easily, or need a more controlled walk. I focus on maintaining good walking habits, proper leash manners, and clear communication so your dog gets the most out of their time. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I pay close attention to surroundings, avoid stressful situations, and make sure each walk is handled with care and awareness. I build my schedule around consistency and reliability, so pet care is a structured part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my days in advance to make sure each walk is done on time and with full attention—no rushing or overbooking. I stay flexible when needed, but I always prioritize showing up prepared, being present during every walk, and making sure each dog gets calm, focused care and a positive experience every time. When I’m house sitting, I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free in their own home. I make sure feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, and playtime are done on schedule, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can adjust to their needs.

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I currently have a Doberman-Husky mix, so I’m very familiar with caring for a high-energy, intelligent breed that needs regular exercise, structure, and plenty of attention. I also have experience raising and caring for a Husky from puppyhood through their first year. In addition, I’ve cared for a senior dog, so I understand the importance of patience, gentle handling, and following a consistent routine. I’m comfortable administering oral medications to both dogs and cats according to the owner’s or veterinarian’s instructions and always prioritize each pet’s comfort and well-being. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following each owner’s care instructions. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or a slower pace, I’ll tailor each visit to their individual needs. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I care for my own Doberman-Husky mix every day, including walks, exercise, feeding, and playtime. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so I have flexibility throughout the week to provide walks, drop-in visits, and quality care. I make it a priority to be dependable, arrive on time, and follow each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I make sure they have fresh water, plenty of exercise or playtime, affection based on their personality, and a clean space. I also pay close attention to their behavior and well-being and will keep you updated with photos and messages after each visit. My priority is to provide safe, dependable, and loving care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I've been caring for my dogs since I was just a child and have always felt a deep connection to animals. I used to do dog walking for some time and have volunteered in a grooming location as well. You can be certain your furry friend will receive the best care with me! I currently stay at home with my son so I have a pretty open schedule. In the afternoon we go for walks in our neighborhood so we'd love to bring your pup along on a walk with us! We have a front and backyard which are both enclosed with a gate. It's pretty spacious so we'd definitely have a good time. At the moment I don't have a pet of my own- we recently lost our girl due to age at 15 years old. She was such a sweet girl and we loved her dearly. We hope to adopt another one in the near future, but for now I'd like to take care of other babies. You can be confident that your dog will be provided with my best attention. Maintaining his or her routine, such as feeding schedules, will also be my top priority.

About: I make sure every walk was filled with fun, fresh air, and lots of tail wags! Ensured dogs got the exercise and attention they needed while keeping them safe and happy. Send updates and cute pictures to owners to keep them connected. I’m more open during the week ( especially the mornings!) than the weekends. I have múltiple dogs on my own so I’m used to the routines. I maintain a structured feeding schedules, plenty of activity, and lots of mental stimulation through toys, enrichment games, and training. Keep a clean living space and monitor their behavior closely to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for every day.

About: I’ve cared for animals for years and currently own two cats of my own. I have a part time job at petsmart so I have experience as well as knowledge and one on one interactions with dogs and cats almost everyday. I also have experience fostering kittens, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to care for pets with different personalities and needs. In addition to cat care, I regularly dog sit for friends and am very comfortable caring for dogs, making sure they get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care while their owners are away. I’m responsible, reliable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I always try to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. I am currently working part time at petsmart, currently I do not have any shifts for the next 2 weeks! When I do go back to work, my schedule is very flexible. I am a cat owner and I make sure to clean the litter daily, feed them properly, make sure they’re hydrated and play with them.

About: I have pet sat for family before, including their birds. I enjoy meeting and spending time with new animals. I do it on my free time and even carry around food if I see an animal in need. Hi! I'm a college student, who adores animals especially kitties! Just looking to spend time with your pets, while also making a little bit of money to help with school. Our pets, Lucy my pup and Ash my kitty, are extremely loved and spoiled. They believe they really are little babies, it's adorable. I do lots of research on what is healthy for my pets, best foods, training, behavior patterns, etc.

About: What sets me apart is honestly my genuine love for animals. It started when I was around 12 years old when I got my very first dog, and ever since then I completely fell in love with caring for animals. Over time, my family and I adopted more dogs. Friends and neighbors have also trusted me to personally care for and babysit their dogs over the years. Sometimes I’ll stop by throughout the day to check on their pups, feed them, play with them, and make sure they’re doing okay, while other times their dogs have stayed at my house for a few days or even a few weeks. Having so many pets has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and understanding different animal personalities and needs. I’ve also cared for many different kinds of animals growing up, including fish, hamsters, lizards, and birds, so I’ve learned a lot about caring for all types of pets. My own dogs have also had litters of puppies before, which taught me so much about caring for newborn puppies and younger dogs. Because of that, I’ve gained experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs. I truly see animals as family, and I love making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I already spend a lot of my time around animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I currently work part-time only on weekends, but my hours and availability are very flexible since I basically make my own schedule. That allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or just keeping them company. When caring for pets, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, pets are supervised, cared for closely, and treated like family in a clean and calm environment. In a client’s home, I always follow their instructions carefully and try to keep their pet’s normal routine so they can feel relaxed and comfortable while their owners are away.

I’ve welcomed many animals into my life and even helped find safe, happy homes for those in need. “I provide reliable, loving care with daily photo updates and flexible scheduling. I’m active, patient, and experienced with energetic and senior dogs. Your dog will get safe walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I have plenty of time, patience, and love to give to your fur baby and the attention they deserve and need having a flexible job means I have more than enough time to make time I can care for your pet exactly how you prefer. As someone who had a pet , I understand how stressful it can be to trust someone with your baby — I’m very cautious and protective with my own pets, so yours will be treated the same way.

About: I am 30 years old, I was the owner of 2 dogs. Sadly one passed away. I have devoted myself to help other owners with their pets, over time I learned the characteristics of dogs, I am patients towards there character and am willing to become the pack leader to have an outcome for a submissive dog. I am in another app as well and I got to be with other dogs who can be so energetic. It is my mission to make them happy and comfortable. I want owners to feel proud of tbem wagging a tail at the end of the day. I hope to meet your dogs and I know they are special to you as they are to me as well. I am a full stay home mom and will always be attentive to your pup! On weekends I attend my church service but come back home to more cuddles! Every pet has freedom in my home and has access to my yard mainly to play and run. If they potty while playing that’s okay it is no problem but mainly they must be able to take potty walks every 4 hours with me on leash. I make sure to feed them and dedicate time to exercise and lots of cuddles! I also want to add, fees will be charged for constant peeing in the home and use of emergency female or male diaper for precaution. Every dog will always like to make their mark. But each dog has their own dominion.

About: Ive taken care of all types of animals from big dogs to small cats or puppies. I have had dogs all my life and enjoy taking them to the dog park just too the park or beach. Not easily irritated, and very patient. I don't won't tell at ur babys and would treat them as my own. I take my pets for walks twice a day and feed them twice only chicken and veggies. I enjoy playing in the backyard with my pets; I love their energy one is extremely lazy and the other is energetic. I am employed but work odd graveyard hour offer for oly 4 and half hours. I also attend school online for business between 6-10 pm but attend to my lectures as I do my daily tasks for my puppets so I am free to care for your pet at any time if needed as well as long as it's not from 2am - 6:30/7:00am I am available for all hours, after whatever works for you. Thank you 4 your time and consideration. My pets will go around your schedule they have learned to ask for food when hungry and when to go pee. They will beg do not give them table food. I have a fenced yard. My dogs do sleep on the bed and are very comfortable asking to go out by scratching doors. They will not run aways I'd gate left open but still other dogs do run looks so tell them to go inside and they will listen.

My 5 year old doodle has been walking with Jailene for over a week now. We decided our pup needed more midday exercise than we could provide, so Jailene swooped right in to come on time everyday: friendly, confident, professional, and no frills. My dog even looks cool walking with her! They get an uphill mile in each weekday for 30 mins and our pup comes back worked, happy, and relaxed. It's been very easy to communicate with Jailene and we trust that our dog is in good hands.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Willowbrook

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Willowbrook on Rover is $21.4 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 21,738 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Willowbrook. 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 Willowbrook. 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 Willowbrook.

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 Willowbrook. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
