About: What sets me apart is my genuine, lifelong love for animals. I truly believe pets are too good for this world and deserve endless love, patience, and attention. I don’t see them as “just pets,” but as family members who deserve to feel safe, happy, and understood. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, which has given me strong knowledge of their needs, typical behaviors, and what they should and shouldn’t eat. I’m naturally patient and kind, love taking dogs on walks and to dog parks, and focus on positively reinforcing good behavior so every pet feels confident, cared for, and loved. 🐾❤️ I am available to engage in dog care Monday- Friday, and Saturday and Sundays if told with enough time in advance. I am flexible and can work with different schedules. I am very respectful of each owners routine for their fur babies and can navigate complex instructions for their care. The pets wellbeing always comes first, and my care will focus on their safety, joy, and needs.
“Rachel is really great with my senior dog who is scared of everyone and is also old. She is also extremely flexible and when my international travel plans changed, she was able to care for my pet anyway.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for several years, with most of my experience in the past year caring for family, coworkers’, and my supervisor’s pets. I’m dependable, love animals, and treat every fur baby like family—with lots of playtime, walks, and cuddles. Being in the military I find myself missing my own dog waiting for me at home, so I take great pride in my care for animals, I want to take the time to provide the extra amount of care and love to other people’s fur babies as I would want for my own. I’m in the USAF at Creech/Nellis AFB, but my schedule leaves a lot of room for time off. I work 8hrs and usually 2-5x a week. I try to make sure that my attention is on the pet as much as possible, and if they require any special care, I am more than happy to do so!

About: I’ve been an honorary pet sitter for many years, simply because I truly love animals. Caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs who need extra care for over 10 years has taught me patience, compassion, and responsibility. I enjoy spending quality time with each dog through walks, playtime, and calm companionship, while also making sure feeding schedules and medications are followed carefully. I treat every dog as if they were my own and take pride in making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I love giving dogs all my care and attention, so I prefer weekends and evening walks. I’m available Monday through Thursday around 6 PM, Friday after 5 PM, and my weekends are always open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time for their exercise, play, and bonding. I care for pets by giving them plenty of attention, going on long walks, and playing with them to keep them happy and engaged. I have one dog at home, but we have beds all over the house. I’m highly attentive, so I usually have a good sense of what a dog needs or is trying to communicate. I’m comfortable caring for both low and high energy dogs, making sure each one gets the care and attention they need. The yard at house is medium but enough room for a dog to run around in and i’m located right next to a two parks. One in the neighborhood the next less than 5 minutes away !

“Carla such an amazing person! She was easy to talk to, and a great listener. My dog Teddy loves her. She was so attentive to Teddy‘s needs. He is 12 years old. He came back with so much joy and excitement. I haven’t seen that in a while. Thank you so much Carla for treating my dog like he was your own.”

But depending on the requested services, we can work around it without too much of a hassle. Communication and understanding can resolve all issues!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,331 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.
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 Apex. On Rover:
- 93% 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.
