About: As a devoted pet mom to two cats and two dogs, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and loving. I am comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of affection. I treat every pet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I am available for drop-in visits on weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. With advance notice, I can also accommodate special schedules and multiple visits per day. I will carefully follow your pet’s usual routine and all instructions provided. During each visit, I will make sure food and water are fresh, doors and windows are secure, and your pet feels safe and comfortable. I will also send photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I have grown up around dogs since I was born. I have always loved caring for and interacting with dogs. I do not have my own dog currently, but would love to help care for others! I am currently substitute teaching at an elementary school, so there may be weekdays I am unavailable. I am currently not working full time, so I will be available to walk your dog(s) throughout the week! I am open to walking as far as needed for your pup. I have experience safely walking more energized dogs, so your dog will be in good hands! I have also walked up to 3 dogs at a time (various sizes) if you have more than one that needs to be walked a time.
About: I love animals and want to help you care for them the easiest and most efficient way possible. If you are looking to book or schedule me please note I can only do any clients that are at least 35 minutes away or less. (Unless I am positive I can walk your pal if you are a bit farther than usual and I am able to do bookings) In prior to booking me please let me know your furry friends quirks, habits, personality and any kind of other information I would need to know about your pet pal! I can work any time between September 14-September 24 and then I am unavailable from September 25- October 2. After October 2 I am available again any time and day of the week. Please tell me what you’d like for your dog/cats walk or drop in and let me know how they are with strangers. As well let me be aware if any animals don’t get along or shouldn’t get out and to inform me if your dog is aggressive/ shy/ nervous / or playful to other dogs. I will make it clear I do not do off leash walking for safety of your dog other dogs and myself. :)
“Megan is great with my dog. She is great about in touch before, during and after her time with him. I really like that she had a background in animal sciences. Makes me feel really comfortable knowing someone so good with animals is walking my dog :)”
“Anna has been great with our dog Hershey, who can be anxious around new people. She’s patient and understanding, taking the time to make Hershey feel comfortable. We appreciate her reliability and the updates she provides after each walk. Highly recommend!”

About: I'm an active animal lover who loves the company of dogs. I've grown up surrounded by animals-- two chihuahuas and a french bulldog. I am a Stanford student who is unfortunately unable to live with a pet due to dorm restraints, which makes me even more excited to spend time with yours! I am a student with a car and a very flexible schedule. I have no problem coming to your house frequently to provide all the care your pet(s) need! I abide by the rules and routines set by the pet owner to ensure the pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in my care. I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific instructions related to medications, grooming, or behavioral needs to create the best experience possible!

About: I am a life-long dog lover, and current Pomeranian owner (Pom-mom). I have a fenced in yard and live near a park with a cute walking path. Your pup will be comfortable in my home and can sleep wherever you'd like, whether that be in his/her crate, in a spare room of mine, or on my couch!I will care for your dog as if they were my own and make sure his or her stay with me is an enjoyable and anxiety-free as possible. I also have experience fostering and have fostered senior dogs with special needs. I work from home as does my husband so someone is always home with your pup. We can follow any schedule your dog is used to. We have no kids, so for those pups that don’t do too well with young ones, we’re a perfect option. Our Pom is dog loving and plays well with other dogs. I would like for them to meet prior if possible to ensure both dog’s get along well.
About: As someone who’s loved my cats and dogs as part of my family, I will go above and beyond to take great care of your pet! My years of volunteering at an animal shelter have given me experience with cats and dogs of all ages with various temperaments and medical needs.

No matter what service you’re looking for, I’d love to send photo and text updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and cared for.
About: I’ve raised two animals from 4 months old, so I understand the patience, consistency, and energy animals need. I’m experienced with basic commands, crate training, and potty training. I treat every pet like family and focus on building trust with both the animal and their owner. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or reinforcing good behavior, I bring calm, reliable care to every visit. I work a hybrid schedule, allowing me to provide consistent, reliable care throughout most of the week. I'm available during early mornings, lunch breaks, evenings, and weekends, so I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, or playtime. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I enjoy the companionship and love making time for it. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I stay consistent with feeding, walking, playing, and potty schedules, and always clean up after your pets. I respect your home as if it were my own, and I always make sure doors are secure and your pet gets plenty of love and attention while you're away.

I think my dog, Toby, likes Michelle more than me these days! But seriously. Michelle has been an outstanding caregiver to my German Shepherd. Toby is 10, stubborn, and disabled, so finding someone I can trust is key. Having to be in the office a few days a week has added a lot of new stress lately. At least I know Toby's in good hands when I'm not home. Thank Michelle for all that you do!
Ana has always done an amazing job caring for my fur baby, Dakota. I’ve worked with her locally many times and was so excited to see her join Rover to continue growing her dog‑sitting career. Ana truly cares about the animals she works with and always takes the time to listen and understand what each pet needs. Dakota is not an easy dog to care for, between her cancer‑related medical needs and her reactive fear of other dogs and children, she can be complicated to leave in someone else’s care. Ana has always risen to these challenges and made us feel completely at ease trusting Dakota with her. This year, we went on a two‑week vacation to Italy, and Ana stayed in our home to care for Dakota the entire time. Not a single walk or medication was missed, and Dakota was loved and cared for as if she were Ana's own pet. I will always trust Ana with Dakota’s care and would confidently trust her with any pets we have in the future. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Willowbrook is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $39 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 12,836 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 Willowbrook. 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 Willowbrook 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 Willowbrook. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
