“Karen is delightful and Hudson just adores her. She was very personable and followed directions for taking care of Hudson to a “T”. I will trust her explicitly to take care of Hudson the Golden Retriever.”
About: Hi! My name is Rheagan. I am a huge dog lover, and I have my own little fur ball at home :) I’ve had dogs my entire life and since I was a little girl I’ve always had a special place in my heart for them. I also have over 100+ 5⭐️ ratings on the Wag! Caregiver app. I’m working and going to school part time, but can work around both. My availability is based on both my work along with my school schedule. However, we can work around both :) I will care for your pet by making sure they are well hydrated and fed. I will let them out, walk them, and give them plenty of love aswell as treats.
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and helped friends and family take care of their pets. I house-sat throughout college. And growing up, neighbors would frequently trust me to take care of their pets while on vacation. I’ve looked after a variety of dogs, large dogs (Rottweiler and Goldens) and small (Yorkies and other terriers). I love them all. I’ve personally owned 2 boxers (one of which I rescued) and grew up with Dachshunds and a Scottish terrier. My husband has owned miniature Schnauzers. We are very knowledgeable in a variety of breeds. I work part-time during the week so there may be times where your pet will have to be alone for at least 8 hrs. We are both very active and outdoor lovers, so your pet won’t be cooped up inside all day, unless that is your preference. We have a fenced yard with security cameras. We pride ourselves on organization and paying attention to detail, so your baby will be prioritized and well taken of.
“Ally was a weekly dog walker for me when needed. She communicated well and was great with my small dog. He warmed right up to her in no time. Highly recommend!!”
“We've used Rover's dog walking service for the first time and the experiance with Angie was great! She was quick to respond and very pleasant to talk to. Angie was profesional, she took her task above and beyond, spending more time with our dog to make sure he's ok before she leaves. She even took care of our mail! Thank you Angie for your excellent work and dedication! We highly recommend her service.”
“Meagan took such great care of our German Shepherd!! She was very professional, responsive, and went above and beyond to make sure he got his energy out while we were away. Would highly recommend her for all of your pet care needs!”
“Morgan was so easy to work with and such a kind individual! This is my first time using a dog walking service. My dog is very shy and timid in nature, but Morgan was very calm and patient with him and also very reassuring towards me regarding my concerns with his fearfulness. Will certainly use her again in the future!”
About: I currently have two well loved pups, both on daily medication. I believe every pup deserves love, regardless of behavior or perceived aggression. I have experience with heartworm positive dogs as well as dogs who experience seizures. I only work part time, and complete education online for the time being so I am available with lots of free time for your furry friend! I will occasionally have my partner over for meals or to just hang out if I am house sitting, depending on the distance and length of the booking. I believe that keeping an animal clean and safe is the best way to ensure health, as well as making sure the animal is comfortable with me. If I am watching someone who is shy, I am more than happy to give them their space (while ensuring they are safe).
“They were so great with my dog! Very patient, letting him go at his own pace and lead his walks. Ru got so excited to see Kenny every day, so I know he was good to him. I’ll definitely use them again!”
“Very flexible and willing to go the extra mile to make sure your pet is taken care of, even around crazy schedules and changes. I could tell my dog was well taken care of and got plenty of affection as well as exercise. Definitely will look to rebook!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and goats since I was 12. I am very responsible and calm and am good with nervous or timid animals. I work as a therapist and am I able to care for your pet before and after work as well as on my lunch break. I understand that routine is important and will keep everything the same as instructed. I can take dogs to a dog park for off leash exercise or leash walk near your home.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was in 9th grade (13 years old). i have taken care or dogs ranging from a Jack Russel mix to owning a Cane Corso. I have also had training from professionals on how to handle larger breeds and I love taking time to train dogs and see them grow and learn new things. I have been relied on by many friends to help them train their dogs and dog sit, rather it be to let them out to pee, feed and water their dog, to staying overnight for a week. I currently am gone for work from 530am to 230/300pm. I do however have roommates at the house during these times that can help watch your fur babies! I have a larger back yard that is fenced in and a friendly dog currently at my home. I also have 2 cats that are very friendly and as most cats, they do their own thing. I also have space to put crates in my garage and in the first room if needed. Although my dog does have a kennel, he doesn't get locked up during the day. I do however require pets to be kennel trained and come with a kennel for me to be able to watch them.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was I 14. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I used to have all types of animals and working with animals is my passion. I'm not currently working, just trying to do what I love so I have all the time to love and care for your pets. I will always treat your animals like mine. I have a nice, big fenced in yard where the dogs could play. Plenty of dog treats and food, plenty of people to love on your animals as well as all the love they can get from me.

Angie was very responsive and communicative. I haven’t gotten a dog walker in years and was worried about selecting the wrong person but Angie was the best choice. She was on time, understanding, and provided solid feedback. I would rebook her services if ever needed again.

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 Albemarle Acres. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 .

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.
