About: I have had pets my entire life! From dogs to cats, fish, and reptiles I have taken care of them all! I also work at a Vet Clinic in their boarding facility. Through this experience I am qualified to give medication to pets! I am responsible in taking care of my pets everyday! When I am not home with my personal pets, I work a vet clinic as a kennel technician. I am involved in animal care by feeding, walking and cleaning up after them. When I pet sit for a friend, I try to go by the house at least 3 times a day. If it is a dog, I walk them every-time I come by. I will check their food bowls and water bowls to ensure that they have all that they need. I will also provide playtimes with their pets whenever I am around.

About: Hi, I’m Kyrstin—the sitter who treats every dog like family. Why pups (and their people) love me Pro walker: 5-mile energy-burning hikes or slow, sniff-filled strolls—your dog sets the pace. Medication pro: Confident with pills, injections, eye/ear drops, and timed dosing schedules. Training touch: I reinforce basic cues (sit, stay, loose-leash) with positive-reinforcement methods during every visit. Flexible care: From early-bird breakfasts to late-night tuck-ins, I adapt to your dog’s routine—senior snugglers, anxious rescue pups, and high-octane athletes all welcome. Home comfort: I keep your house tidy, plants watered, and mail collected so everything’s just as you left it. I am currently a part time worker who just graduated from college! I am available for daily drop in any time or the day or long term care. I would love to meet your dog and care for them :) Follow your exact schedule for meals, walks, meds, and bedtime. Respect house rules (crate use, furniture policy, alarms, etc.). Live photo/text updates after every visit. Light home care—plant watering, mail pickup, trash day.

About: Open schedule! Rover experience: I’m used to having a repeat client or two each year. ISO for new repeat clients. I have recently moved to a new state and accepting new clients. As a child we always had a family pet. As an adult, I own two cats and two dogs. My husband and I have fostered for 2 years with New Hope Pet Rescue in Michigan so I can honestly say I have experience. Each of my animals are up to date on vaccines, flea/tick medicine. I am looking to be your pet nanny! Routines are important and I’m here to help with every day life. Message me today! Available as soon as 6am-10pm (time can be adjusted depending on location). Play time and attention is a big must when the owner is away. It’s already stressful being away from each other so I focus on distraction. Lots of toy playing, snuggles, pets and brushing if is provided. Side note: I have successfully given my youngest cat the Heimlich after her sibling barked while she was eating and scared her. First aid experience .

About: I have owned dogs my entire life and been a house/dog sitter for 10 years. I’m currently a dog foster mama and have two of my own dogs. We live on about 3 acres of land so the dogs have plenty of room to run and play! My dogs are apart of our family so your dogs will become part of our family too! Can issue any type of medication as well. High experience, Iv had all sorts of different breeds through fostering! I work full time but I work completely from home M-F. Your pet would rarely be alone and if they were, it would be an hour max. I don’t have a fenced yard but will happily walk your dog on a leash or off leash if completely trained. I have two fur babies of my own who love to run and play with other dogs!

About: I started off pet sitting small I had two regular customers. I would watch two cats for one and a dog for another. I have always owned a dog or cat. And would watch close friends and families pets. Then took the leap of faith and start with Rover. I do take same day bookings as long as I'm not full. I do stay busy have a few repeat clients already. I will work with you 100% and communicate 100%. Being reliable is key and communication is key. Daily routine for dogs or cats that are being boarded. Cats will always be in a safe designated area away from dogs if they are boarded. They get fed in the morning and evening normally 8am and 5pm or whatever the client wants. They go potty really early and throughout the day and their last potty break is normally around 10-11pm. They pretty much do whatever and just have a great time playing with other pets and making them feel at home. They are allowed on beds and furniture. You will always get updates daily and pictures. They will go on walks also. Now in home visits is whatever you as the client wants. I leave it up to you. Normally they get spoiled and loved on and go outside fed whatever you need. They also get very spoiled and pampered while being boarded. Safety and cleanliness is my top priority. I slowly and monitor every dogs behavior that is staying just to make sure they all get along. I always feed each dog separately as some are food aggressive. Your dogs bowls get clean after each meal and sent home clean. Floors get sanitized each day and vacuumed. Their dog toys, blankets and dog beds get washed before they leave so they are nice and clean. Dog poop gets picked up out of the yard daily. I do have indoor and outdoor cameras to monitor the dogs if gone.

About: I have cared for animals for years, especially during the holidays when owners travel out of town. I have experience with a variety of pets including dogs, cats, guinea pigs and hedgehogs. I am a licensed massage therapist running my own business but when I don’t have appointments scheduled at the office, I am at home, willing to help out other working pet parents I currently have a shy beagle mix who gets anxious around other people and animals. For his comfort, I am currently only caring for animals at the client’s home.

About: I love all animals, but dogs are my favorite! I raised a miniature schnauzer for 15 years (RIP Dooney). I now have a senior rescue named, Layla Grayce. I’ve volunteered at many animal shelters and have fostered dogs as well. I will love your fur baby just as they were my own! Thank you for trusting me and allowing me the opportunity to look after your fur baby 💕🐶🐱😊 I work remotely from home. This flexibility allows me to make myself available as needed for your pets needs. I will honor your pups schedule for all feedings, walks, and potty breaks. Layla would be a great companion for your pup as she is gentle and calm. At bedtime, I can crate your pup or allow them to roam my home. I will give them the attention they deserve while doing my best to make sure they feel safe and at home. I’ll also take photos and provide frequent updates while I care for your fur baby :)

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I spent time on my grandfather’s farm, helping care for all kinds of animals, which taught me patience and responsibility from a young age. Over the years, I’ve also raised my own dogs from the puppy stage, so I’m very comfortable with training, housebreaking, and giving lots of love and attention to growing pets. Because of this experience, I’m confident caring for pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors who need a little extra patience and care. I treat every pet like part of my family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is my priority and a big part of my everyday life. I have a very flexible schedule and am always available to give pets the attention they need. I plan my days around walks, feeding times, and playtime, making sure every pet feels cared for and safe. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or late night cuddles, I’m available and ready to make pets feel at home. I live in a spacious, pet friendly apartment in a safe and quiet neighborhood, which makes it perfect for dogs to relax and feel at home. I keep my space clean, cozy, and pet proof, and there’s plenty of room for play and rest. When pets stay with me, they get lots of love, attention, and structured potty breaks. I enjoy going on regular walks around my neighborhood, which is calm and great for exercise. I make sure to stick to each pet’s normal routine for meals, bathroom breaks, playtime, and bedtime so they feel comfortable and secure. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their exact instructions to keep pets happy and stress free. I make sure food, water, and medication schedules are followed closely, and I send regular updates and pictures so owners feel at ease while they’re away.

The unconditional love they provide is unparalleled, and I believe that caring for pets is a truly enriching and rewarding experience, one that brings happiness and fulfillment beyond measure My pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I ensure regular feeding, exercise, and playtime, as well as grooming and health check-ups.

As a pet care provider, whether in my own home or my clients', I prioritize the welfare and happiness of the animals entrusted to me. I tailor my services to meet their specific needs, which may include regular feeding, exercise, and play sessions. In-home care involves maintaining a safe and comfortable environment, adhering to their daily routines, and administering any necessary medications. Additionally, I ensure ample companionship and attention to alleviate any anxiety they may experience when separated from their owners. My ultimate goal is to create a nurturing and loving atmosphere for the pets under my care.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Asheboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Asheboro on Rover is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $2 and $27 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.

Research that home-like environments support a dog’s wellbeing. Whether it’s fewer dogs, cozy environments, or one-on-one attention, in-home boarding can support an environment dogs are most familiar with.

On Rover, you can search for sitters who accept fewer dogs and provide one-on-one attention to limit your dog’s stress in a new place.

When you book dog boarding on Rover, your dog stays overnight in a walker’s home. A traditional kennel or boarding facility typically cares for dogs in a commercial setting, often with multiple staff members and a set daily schedule.

The environment and care arrangements in a sitter’s home vary by sitter. Some sitters may accept only one client’s pets at a time, while others may care for several dogs. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet to ask about resident pets, other dogs, supervision, sleeping arrangements, exercise, medication, and the sitter’s home environment.

Consider your dog’s normal routine, comfort around other animals, supervision needs and preferred environment. Whether you choose home boarding or a kennel, confirm what care is included and how your dog’s needs would be handled before booking.

Finding the right boarding environment is all about peace of mind. Boarding with a sitter on Rover helps you find a cozy experience in a real home for your dog.

When searching for a host, look for a sitter who:

  • Offers a secure, home-like environment that is clean and welcoming
  • Adheres to your dog’s established routine for meals, activity, and rest
  • Possesses relevant experience with your pet’s specific breed, size, and personality
  • Maintains clear communication regarding the frequency of photo and message updates

Don’t skip the Meet & Greet! The free Meet & Greet is the best way to see where your dog will sleep and who they might play with.

As of October 2026, there are 915 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Asheboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You can find personalised dog boarding care on Rover based on your dog’s needs, a sitter’s experience, home environment, and the dogs they might accommodate. When sending a request to a sitter, ask if they offer a specific boarding arrangement. You can ask if sitters offer:

  • puppy-only boarding
  • solo or single-dog boarding
  • senior dog boarding
  • anxious or reactive dog boarding
  • separation anxiety dog boarding
  • boarding for multiple pets from the same household
  • activity-focused boarding
  • luxury-style boarding

Some sitters may include additional enrichment options or extra comforts. For example, activity-focused boarding sitters may advertise more exercise opportunities, like hikes and runs. Luxury-style boarding may offer more premium care, such as a dedicated room, TV, or more one-on-one attention. Browse profiles and ask sitters about their services to find the right fit.

These are not standardized categories offered by every sitter. Specialized arrangements or additional services may be priced differently from the sitter’s standard boarding rate.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. Every sitter on Rover has their own routine and some may offer flexible activities suited for your dog. 98% of sitters in your city can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays.

These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

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

Each sitter sets their own boarding rates. While a discount is not automatically included with every booking, some sitters offer different pricing for longer stays. You can find this information listed under their rates on their profile under “Stays of 1 night or more”.

Before booking, enter the full stay dates to see the estimated price and message the sitter if you have questions about how their rates apply to a longer stay.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 , 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 Asheboro 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.

Before the first stay, arrange a Meet & Greet so your dog(s) can meet the sitter and you can discuss their usual routine, feeding, medication, behaviour, supervision needs, vet details and emergency contacts. Ask the sitter whether they need vaccination records or any other information before drop-off.

Bring enough of your dog’s regular food and medication for the stay, with clear written instructions, along with any agreed essentials and a familiar item such as their bed, blanket or toy. If your dog is nervous in new environments, ask whether a short trial stay would be helpful before a longer booking.

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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
