“Kelly is a gem! I have been in the hospital and unable to meet her personally. She took the bull by the horns even watering some of my plants. The cherry on top was that Amilyn really loves her! I did not have to worry about her care at all.”
“I was nervous using rover for the first time for a last minute trip, but Scott was terrific. He came for a meet and greet and C.C. took right to him. Scott was great about communicating and I loved getting the photos of my baby enjoying her walk. 100% recommend. I was at ease knowing my girl was taken care of while I was away.”
“Kim is awesome! My dog loves her and she always gives great note cards post walk. She spends time with all my pets (dog and cats) and if you book her for 30 minutes she is there for the full 30 minutes.”
“Cynthia is awesome. She sent me photos and videos every day. She also updated me on potty habits! I informed her that we were working on puppy biting and the things I was doing to train the puppy. She followed suit and updated me on his progress during his time with her. Very trustworthy and full of helpful puppy knowledge! Booking her for several more weeks!!”
“Stephanie was such a sweetheart to my girl, Blue :) she was always on time and even walked her a little longer than the 30 mins. I can tell Blue felt comfortable with her and I felt comfortable leaving her in Stephanie’s care. Will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Monica has been amazing! She is very professional, punctual, great to work with and easy to talk to. Suna loves waiting at the front door for her. She has been a blessing for us and she clearly knows what she is doing. I get pictures and reports every time she walks Suna. I'm so impressed. You will not be disappointed!”
“Pamela was a huge help to me and my Schnoodle! She followed all of my instructions with excellence and blessed my senior dog with beautiful walks and much needed attention. Pamela will be the first person I contact when I need help again and I highly recommend her to anyone else needing help with their fur babies.”
“Jade is absolutely amazing! Came over the day before to meet Boston. Asked questions about him and his routine that I didn’t think to consider. Super helpful last minute and is really flexible with my hectic schedule.”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 8. My friends, neighbors and extended family have trusted me to walk, feed, drop in, and house sit their pets for over 20 years. If you have an active dog, I would love to take him/her on trips to the park. If your dog is less active, I'll adjust the activity level as needed. I'm a total animal lover. I'm currently working full-time from home, with lots of flexibility. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and house sitting. I am happy to adjust my schedule as needed. Ensuring your little buddy's safety is my top priority! I will be sure to follow all instructions provided and send updates during my visits or walks.
“Jenny is an absolute delight!! She is very interactive, personable, and Nikko absolutely LOVES her! We loved seeing the photos of Nikko while we were out of town for business! She did so much for our dog, and we can’t wait to book her again!!”
“What a great experience! This was our first time using Rover and I landed on Melissa based on her having a fellow basset hound and professional experience dealing with animals. We have two bassets, both female, and one of those we just rescued. Needless to say they are a handful. Melissa came over the night before to meet them and check out their dynamic. She didn’t have to do this at all and it was so appreciated. She walked them he next day, kept us updated and responded fast with ANY questions. Bottom line is Melissa is a pro and will be using her for all future basset stop and smells/walks.”
“Lisa was extremely patient with my dog who barked for 20 minutes before they became best buds. I'm so glad she didn't give up on my girl! Now, I have beautiful fall pictures from their walks.”
“Krista has been a wonderful additional to our life here in Columbus. She walked Mox every Thursday for me during my long day at work. I always trusted her and only pure happiness was seen on Mox’s face every picture she sent. I know he loved seeing and walking with her every week! GREAT dog walker and would 100% recommend.”

David is an exceptional sitter who treats my dog like family. When she fell ill while I was away, he went above and beyond, providing dedicated care until she fully recovered.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Apex on Rover is $22.2 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 5,163 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Apex. 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 Apex. 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 Apex.

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 Apex. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
