About: Hi! My name is Morgan, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, basic care, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to following your pet’s routine so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care is naturally set into my daily and weekly routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play time, and check-ins to ensure every pet gets consistent care. Mornings and evenings are dedicated to exercise, enrichment, and cuddles, while afternoons include potty breaks, supervision, and rest time. My schedule is flexible and intentionally designed so I can give every animal the attention, and time they deserve. When pets stay in my home, I create a safe, supervised, and comforting environment set to their needs. I maintain clean spaces, provide cozy rest areas, and offer play time. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and preferred activities, so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine uninterrupted. I handle feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medication, playtime, and any specific instructions exactly as provided. I also respect the home environment by keeping everything tidy and secure. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on communication, safety, and reliable, compassionate care that helps pets feel calm, comfortable, and understood.

About: I’ve been responsible for caring for my families pets since I was 5 years old. My dad taught me how to teach basic commands for our dogs and I’ve educated myself in the health and wellness of my pets since getting my dog, Ruby back in 2018. Dogs mean so much to me and they have a soft spot in my heart. I will dutifully care for your pets and make them feel loved in any way I can! I am currently a sophomore majoring in Biology at Wofford College so besides from class, I will give your pets plenty of attention and care. My Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule varies from my Tuesday-Thursday schedule so feel free to ask me about that! I am also apart of greek life and a club on campus which will only take a little bit of my time. Otherwise, I have time to stay overnight for your pets. Any routines that the pet normally has I can continue while you are away! My dog’s health is important to me and I know how important schedules are so I will be sure to follow them to the best of my ability!

About: 🌱Since a little girl all the way up to now I have been surrounded by animals. I have experience in caring for both cats and dogs alike as I have fur babies myself; 3 cats and a Pharaoh Hound. 🌱 🌿I will gladly follow special care instructions and supervision advisories as needed to ensure your pet is comfortable in their own home.🌿 ✨Have an Exotic/ “Unconventional” pet? I’ll care for them too! 🐠🦜🐁🐍🦎( this excludes Insect pets.)✨ All I ask is that if I am to pet sit to please allow me to bring my dog if it is overnight stay. I am typically available full-time on the weekends only as I have all day off on those days. Weekdays I am available after 5pm. After I get off of work I typically care for my own pets before relaxing myself. I like to follow instructions provided by the owner. I typically prefer to give pets their respective space unless they show to be needy with affection or hyperactive and need an outlet for their energy via playtime!

About: With many years of experience as a veterinary technician in both shelter and clinic settings, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and care to every pet I work with. My hands-on experience ranges from administering medications and handling emergencies to comforting anxious pets and supporting their emotional well-being. I’ve worked with animals of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs, making me exceptionally well-prepared for pet sitting, dog walking, and providing attentive, professional care. Your pets will be in the hands of someone who treats them with the same compassion, patience, and expertise that I’ve developed over years in the field! I love being able to meet other people's fur babies and make them feel safe and happy when under my care.❤️ I am currently only working three days a week at my veterinary clinic, which leaves me with a fairly open and flexible schedule. This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting, dog walking, and providing reliable, attentive care for your pets when you need it most. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and behavior. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and a calm atmosphere. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their regular routine to reduce stress, keep their space tidy, and make sure they feel secure and loved while their owners are away. My background as a veterinary technician means I’m also confident handling any special needs or medical situations that may arise.

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs and one cat, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I’ve learned a lot about dog body language and understanding each dog’s unique personality, and I’m always learning more about cats too. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in caring hands while you’re away. I’m currently a cosmetology student and work part-time. Since I haven’t started school yet, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. Even once classes begin, I’ll continue to keep my schedule updated and only accept bookings that I can fully commit to. I always make sure every pet gets the time, attention, exercise, and love they deserve while they’re in my care. When caring for pets in your home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and respected. I like to approach every dog with a calm, positive energy and take the time to let them get to know me before we head out for a walk. I pay close attention to their body language, personality, and energy level so I can adjust to what they need. Whether your dog loves a long walk, a slower pace, or just extra encouragement, I’ll make sure they have a safe, enjoyable experience. I’ll also follow your pet’s routine and care instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away.

About: I currently have four dogs: two seven-year-old Cane Corsos, a rescued American Bully (estimated 10+ years old), and an eight-year-old retired Catahoula who, since his retirement, is more interested in my wife and food than anything else. I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and I’ve also handled canines in professional and official capacities. I often find myself the go-to person for friends and family when they have dog care questions. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds, including cats. I will care for your pets like they are my own. As a former police officer and certified firefighter, I bring an added level of safety and attention to every stay. Your pet’s well-being is my priority, but I also ensure your home is secure and small details, such as things others might overlook, are taken care of 110 percent. I can administer medications, handle pets with special needs, and provide a level of care and service above what’s typical, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I can also handle deliveries that require signatures, escort service technicians or other personnel during appointments, and attend to anything else that may arise at your home while you’re away — providing a truly comprehensive level of service. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to focus on providing this high-end, comprehensive care. While my rates are higher than some on this app, they reflect the level of care, attention, and experience I provide — and I’m confident you’ll find the value well worth it. You don’t have to worry about any nightmare scenarios when I am in charge of your pets and home. Message me any time to check my availability. My schedule is very flexible and I likely can accommodate your needs almost anytime. I am quick to respond. Just let me know how I can help you! I can follow any directions that you have for your pets. I have travelled with dogs back and forth across the country. I can feed and walk and play with your pets. I have administered meds as well. I can care for pets an any stage in life. Also check out my about me section to see how I can be a safety multiplier for your pets and home while you are away.

About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter who treats every animal like family. I make it a priority to ensure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. From following feeding schedules to giving plenty of playtime, attention, and affection, I’m dedicated to keeping pets comfortable and well cared for. I communicate clearly, provide updates, and always act responsibly, so owners can relax knowing their pets are in trustworthy hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me the flexibility and availability to devote real attention to each pet I care for. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and cats, so I build visits, walks, feeding schedules, and playtime around my work hours without rushing. Because I enjoy caring for pets, it never feels like extra work—it’s something I look forward to and plan for throughout the week. This balance allows me to be reliable, consistent, and fully present for each pet’s needs. I am looking to sit in clients homes. I enjoy long walks and a set schedule for your pets needs. I have experience in giving medication for animals, my dog has an eye condition that requires eye drops and attention to everyday. I am hoping to work at least three days a week. I typically work afternoons at my current part time job. I am open to working mornings and noon! I am currently enrolled in college.

About: I grew up with all kinds of pets from goats to puppies and cats. I have a unique experience with sick pets that need special treatment like medications. I can also help do small training like potty training and little tricks like sitting. I have pet sat for many friends and neighbors for both cats and dogs. I have loved animals for as long as I can remember and I can promise I will treat your babies as my own. I am a college student home for the summer. I do have a part time job week days only but that is my only commitment at the moment. I will treat pets as my own. They will stay with me in my room and be allowed to play outside in the common areas. I will take them out on walks and give them time to play outside. When I’m sitting in someone’s home I will do the same giving them lots of play time and attention.

About: I love any animal and always welcome any fur baby, temporary or permanent you can trust that your pet is in good hands! I have many years experience taking care of kittens, puppies, cats, dogs, horses, goats, birds, even reptiles. I actually had a Russian Tortoise as a pet for over 17 years....the only pet I couldn't really tolerate would be a Tarantula...never been to fond of the spiders. Snakes are on a fine line as well, if necessary i will care for a snake but its not a personal favorite i guess you can say. I always wanted to become a Veterinarian growing up as a child but instead i started a family at the age of 20...I now am the proud mama of 3 boys, 4 dogs, 3 cats, 1 new kitten and a fish!!!!!!

About: I have been a animal lover my whole life. When I had to personally hire a pet sitter, I was very particular who I allowed to come into my home and take care of my babies. I was blessed to have found a wonderful sitter. In fact that’s how I became a paid sitter. She hired me to take care of her clients and personal animals when she went on vacation. With over 20 years of experience, I can provide references as well as the posted reviews. Our pets are more than just animals, they are family. I will give your companions the attention they need as well any special request. From dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and farm animals, I have the expertise you need. We all want our pets to be safe, comfortable and cared for while we are away. I'm here to assure you that I will treat your loved ones as one of my own and look forward to meeting your entire pack! I currently pet sit and book accordingly. My attention to detail allows me to care for 4 households a day. My daily routine includes greeting and walking the client and feedings as well. Some need special attention, so my time is dedicated to that. Making time to care and treat these clients as family is what I do. From walks to belly rubs, these clients have my full attention. When you’re at work and you need me to come by and let "Fido" out for a walk,I'll greet him\her with a smile. Each pet is different. Giving them their own special attention is important. I can leave you a note, text or contact of your desire on that day's adventure. Before leaving your residence, I will make sure your loved one has adequate provisions until you arrive home. I'll also sweep your pets area and make sure your home is secure. If you have any special request, then let me know. Overnight care is also provided. You can rest assure that your pet and home are my upmost concern, while you are away.

About: I moved to South Carolina 2 years ago from California, but I’ve lived all over the country. I love caring for animals and hope to soon own a farm full of them. I’ve recently purchased my own home and land, so a farm full of animals isn’t far off. For now though I have two dogs. The oldest is an 11 year old bridle mixed breed named Dingo, the younger one, Howie will be 3 this year. Both dogs are smart, well-behaved and friendly, but they also know how to keep to themselves. I'm good with any age, size or breed and can adapt to their needs, as I have worked with senior dogs, puppies, and special needs dogs alike. I have a car that I don't mind allowing pets in if we decide to take a trip to the dog park or any other dog appropriate destinations. I can't wait to meet you and your pet(s)! I currently work at a restaurant that’s closed on Mondays and opens at 11:30 the rest of the week, so I’m always available in the mornings. My schedule will change slightly week to week, but our schedules are put out two weeks in advance so I have plenty of time to plan and adjust for you and your pets needs. I have a large yard (grassy and wooded), an accommodating home and two friendly dogs. They would love to make some new friends, but are very good at keeping to themselves if necessary.

I am opened to walks, sitting and boarding. My availability is very open. I am fully willing to comply to yours and your fur baby’s needs.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Abingdon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 1,265 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Abingdon. 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 Abingdon. 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 Abingdon.

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 Abingdon. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.
