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. When caring for a client’s pet in their home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. 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.

About: Hi I’m Hailey! Growing up my family always had both cats and dogs so I’m very comfortable taking care of pets. I have years of experience with both dog and cat sitting for both short and long term stays. I love to be active and take dogs on walks around the neighborhood and can customize my schedule to fit their needs. I work part time and have a pretty flexible schedule. I can work based around you and your pet’s needs! Available weekdays as well as weekends. I have dog sat for both large and small dogs before and have no issue with tailoring to their needs. I have years of experience pet sitting for long term stays up to a month for dogs, cats, and chickens alike!

About: I’ve had a pup (a Pitbull mix!) for about 9 years now which has been the best. I’ve gone through crate and potty training with him as a pup and later behavior training to curb some challenging behaviors. This makes me super flexible with providing commands of all levels and maintaining training progress. Friends and family have asked me to look after their pets, of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I’ve comfortable with giving medications, feeding, bathing, walking, and maintains training skills as needed. I try to be as flexible as I can to the dog’s needs and preferences (as well as the owners!). I’m currently a full-time graduate student, working part-time, and have other responsibilities! I mainly have availability in the evenings on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. Feel free to reach out to see if anything else would work! :) I definitely let the pet warm up to me, just to establish that comfort and safety within the pet. I can crate the pet if needed, either for sleep or for feeding. I definitely want them to be comfortable in their own spaces so I’m pretty open to doing what I can to make that happen!

About: Hi! I’m Maya, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Family and friends regularly rely on me to feed, walk, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every animal in my care. currently work full-time Monday–Friday from 7:30 AM–4:30 PM, but I’m available during weekday evenings and weekends. I’m flexible whenever possible and happy to coordinate schedules to best fit you and your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always prioritize patience, attentiveness, safety, and communication. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. All furry friends are welcome! 🐾

About: From a young age, I developed a deep love for animals, growing up surrounded by dogs and a cat. That passion continues today, and I’m now a proud cat mom to two beloved boys: a 4-year-old orange tabby and a 1.5-year-old tuxedo. I currently work in marketing and am applying to volunteer at local cat shelters to give back and spend more time with animals. For the past three years, I’ve also cared for a client’s three cats multiple times a year outside of Rover, in addition to regularly looking after friends’ and family’s pets while they’re away on vacation. Taking care of animals is already part of my everyday life! Between feeding, playtime, and cuddles with my two cats, I’m used to having a consistent pet care routine. I work part-time in marketing, so I have plenty of time throughout the week and weekends to care for other pets too. I am very respectful of your house rules and extremely attentive to you and your animals needs. I can play, feed, and take pictures or videos of your fur babies.

“Erin was great with my dog Willow. At the meet and greet she was professional and personable. Willow has a little trouble with meeting strangers for the first time and Erin handled it perfectly. Willow warmed up to her on the first walk and adapted to Willow’s initial shyness by feeding her from under our side table by the couch where she likes to hide. She took excellent photos and kept me informed. I highly recommend Erin.”

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.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Windsor Locks

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Windsor Locks on Rover is $19 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $21 per walk. 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 October 2026, there are 2,106 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 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 Windsor Locks 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 Windsor Locks. On Rover:

  • 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 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.
