Abigail took wonderful care of my dog while I was away for three days. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which gave me great peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her and would happily have her watch my dog again!

About: I’ve loved animals since I was young, always being known to be the person who asks “Can I pet your dog?”. Having grown up living with and partially helping to train my grandparent’s standard poodle puppy at age 9, I knew then that I wanted animals in my life forever. Through the years I’ve done fundraisers for local shelters, looked after and groomed family dogs, given pet care advice, and for the last four years have worked professionally as a kennel attendant. My job has always been a joy to me, and despite its stresses I always tell people that caring for animals is the best job I could ever ask for. I’ve been able to meet and work with pets of all different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and abilities; from blind/deaf dogs, senior dogs, aggressive dogs, puppies/kittens, diabetic dogs and cats, and so many more. Each of them provides an invaluable experiences that teaches me patience, compassion, and communication. I’m now the proud owner of a 11 month old cat, Balrog, and of a 13 year old chihuahua, Mia. Though I am a full time student and a part time kennel attendant, I am able to be more flexible with my schedule over summer break. My current availability is as follows, Monday: Unavailable Tuesday: All day Wednesday: All day Thursday: All day Friday: All day Saturday: All day Sunday: Unavailable While I do not have any space in my home to keep animals at the moment, in a clients home I am happy to play with pets, let them out or go on walks, crate if desired, clean up any possible mess, and overall act as a safe and friendly part of a pet’s environment in any way possible.

I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, and can provide specialty care such as medications. I currently do not have a 9-5 so have a flexible M-F schedule! I usually do not have weekends available, but feel free to message and ask if it is a longer stay that would go over the weekend. I ensure to respect your pet and your home. I know it is difficult to trust people with your pets, and I promise to take the utmost care. I have a senior dog myself, and understand every pet is different and has their own needs.

Melissa was extremely professional, responded quickly and came through in a pinch. She went above and beyond to help me out with my dog and ai would use her again in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, my work circumstances changed so what I thought would be an on-going service with her turned out to only be needed once. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

So I will have lots of free time to come walk and play with your fur babies! And I’m available pretty much every weekend, any time. I absolutely love caring for any and all household pets and will always make sure your baby is well taken care of and follow any safety instructions needed.

About: Hey there! I’m Milo, a pet sitter of 6 years, and a dog walker since childhood. I have a diverse range of experience with all ages and breeds of dogs, and am confident that I can find a way to work well alongside your pup! Whether a quick check in for a game and a potty break, a 30 minute walk around town, or a few overnights so they never get lonely, I am excited to get to know your furry friends and give them the best day possible! I work part time at a dog daycare, where I am responsible for working with up to 45 dogs at once. This means that I will be able to give your pup corrections in the right way, as well as being able to handle any stubborn, stressed, or scared temperaments. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as high energy or low/stubborn energy. I am not grossed out easily, so any pups with stomach issues are in great hands. Feel free to ask about medication administration if needed as well! I am open to any and all questions, so please reach out so we can make a good match! I am currently a college student working part time, but with close visits I can fit in a walk or potty break almost anytime during the week. Overnights are available Thursday through Sunday, or upon special request. Any scheduling issues please reach out, as my schedule is flexible. I am happy to settle into any type of home, and with the appropriate fenced yard I can play, run, or even just watch from afar to meet your pups needs. I am able to administer medications upon request, and will make sure they are in bed on schedule if I am staying overnight. Overall I am simply happy to adjust and be flexible to meet any of your pups needs.

About: I've had a passion for caring for animals ever since I can remember. I would often pet sit for friends and family and I quickly learned I wanted to spend my life working with animals. Fast forward to the present, I am a full-time pet sitter that keeps a special place in my heart for each and every four-legged friend I've been able to care for! Pet care is my full-time job, so your pet is my top priority! I am available every weekday, weekends, and most holidays. I am available for overnight stays and drop-in visits. Overnight stays allow your pet to have someone there all day and all night to get the love they need while you can't be there; and drop-in visits allow your pet to get the care they need at the times they are used to at a frequency you pick. Feel at ease knowing your pet is in the comfort of their own home able to carry out their normal routine- whatever feeding, potty, and walk times your furry friend is used to.

About: I have always had a pet dog and ever since I was a teenager, I’d dog-sit for family and neighbors. Since college, I’ve been pet-sitting ajd dog walking on a more professional level. I’ve babysat for a few hours, simply for a walk, but have also watched multiple high energy dogs for up to two weeks. I’ve cared for dogs under a year old and up to 13 years old. I’ve always loved dogs and find them very easy to get along with and care for no matter their size, age, or personality. I have also cared for kittens a few weeks old, senior cats, administering medication orally, grooming them if they have long hair etc. Cats have a very different energy than dogs but I enjoy taking care of them just as much as dogs. I am currently in between jobs so I have a lot of free time to care for other dogs, whether it is a short walk or a multi-hour play date, etc. I always follow whatever guidance I am provided by pet parents. This means if you are only comfortable with your dog on a leash or lead while in your yard, I strictly follow that. If there are specific commands to use, certain behavior to watch out for or discourage, particular toys or activities they enjoy, I always follow what information I am given and am always open and communicate well about any issues or concerns that might arise on my end.

About: Hi there! 👋 I’m an animal lover through and through! I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats and have always loved caring for them. Now, I have a pup of my own for my kids to grow up with — and we couldn’t imagine life without furry friends! 🐾 I’d love to help care for your pets as if they were my own — whether it’s a walk, some playtime, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I look forward to meeting your four-legged family member! ❤️ Pet care is my full-time focus at the moment, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and give both your pets and my children the attention they deserve.

I follow your routine as closely as possible — from walks and feeding times to play and cuddles — so your pet feels right at home even when you’re away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and always keep you updated with pictures and messages for peace of mind.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Windsor Locks

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Windsor Locks on Rover is $19.26 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,093 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Windsor Locks. 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 Windsor Locks. 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 Windsor Locks.

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 Windsor Locks. On Rover:

  • 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
