About: Hi, I’m Aden! I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up caring for two dogs, two cats, and several fish tanks, so I’m experienced with many different needs and personalities. I love going on walks, spending time outdoors, so making sure pets get the exercise, attention, and love they deserve won’t be a problem at all. Animals tend to warm up to me quickly, and I always treat them like family, so you can have peace of mind while you are away My schedule is somewhat set in stone, I work weekdays from 6:00am–4:15pm and some Saturdays from 6:00am–4:15pm, which means I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends to care for your pets. I’m committed to making sure they get the attention, walks, and playtime they need outside of my work hours. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I make their safety and routine my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions you provide to keep things consistent and stress-free. I always keep an eye on doors, leashes, and environments to ensure your pets stay safe, whether we’re indoors or out on a walk. I’m also comfortable providing extra care if needed, such as administering medications or handling special routines. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are well cared for while you’re away.

About: I've been working with animals for over 15 years through veterinary assisting, animal shelter volunteering, dog obedience and agility training, and caring for my own pets. I've worked with dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs and pets with medical or special needs. I'm experienced with crate training, potty training, administering oral medications, caring for anxious and fearful dogs, and maintaining consistent routines that help pets feel safe and comfortable. I believe every dog deserves individualized care, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and daily routine. Safety is always my top priority. I closely supervise pets, use positive reinforcement, understand canine body language, and create a calm, structured environment where dogs can thrive. As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I'm able to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, enrichment, and affection throughout the day. You'll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. I treat every pet like a member of my own family and strive to make their stay as stress-free, fun, and loving as possible. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, including potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, medications, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I carefully schedule my day around each pet's individual needs to help maintain their normal routine and reduce stress. I have availability on weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a walk, or overnight house sitting, I strive to provide dependable, attentive care and keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any medical conditions, anxieties, or behavioral quirks before every booking so I can provide consistent, individualized care. In your home, I respect your pet's established routine and environment, helping them feel secure while you're away. I closely supervise pets, use positive reinforcement, follow all instructions carefully, and ensure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure at all times. I'm experienced administering oral medications and caring for puppies, senior pets, and dogs with special needs. During walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leash handling, avoiding unsafe situations, and adjusting our route and pace to your dog's age, energy level, and comfort. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you'll have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving the same love and attention I'd give my own.

Booked Courtney at the very last minute for a 1 hr walk for the first time and she was able to accommodate and get my boys. They enjoyed their time and she cared enough to towel dry them after their walk as it was raining. Booked again for boarding and she was always informative, reached out with any questions to make sure she provided the best care and daily updates with pictures etc. she made sure they got comfortable being in a new space as well.

About: I've had cats and/or dogs all my life! I love all animals! I'm one who will get out of my car to help a turtle cross the road. I'm a retired teacher so I have plenty of time to care for your animals. This would be such an enjoyable way to spend my days! I can care for your dog(s) in my home or yours! I can care for your cat(s) in your home, as I already have 4. I'm willing to play, go on walks, car rides, or the park with your dog.

About: I am a dog mom to two dachshunds named Bexley and Maeve. Bexley and Maeve love to have visitors to share their toys and treats with. We live in a townhouse that has access to a fenced in backyard and a fenced in dog park. We also love to drive 2 minutes down the road for a long walk at Highview Park. I do work from home, so I can give your furchild all the attention he/she wants or needs, which is why I only take 1-3 small dogs at a time. Should you decide to pick our home for your furchild's stay, you can expect frequent updates with photos and/or videos. Overall, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furchild is well loved while you are away. 🩷 I work from home which gives me the ability to provide constant attention and care. My work hours allow me to prioritize exercise and extra cuddles on the couch. I have a fenced in backyard that has a doggy door for easy access. We like to take walks 3 times a day if weather permits. If the weather is bad, we love to play tag and chase balls inside. To wind down in the evening, we love to snuggle on the couch and watch movies. Overnight, the dogs are permitted to sleep in the bed.

About: While staying with me all pets will be catered to by what they want to do. Have a lazy dog? We’ll sit and cuddle while watching movies. Have a high energy dog? My boys will be willing to play all day long until they’re tired. All dogs staying with us will take daily walks with around my neighborhood (if they’re up for it). Your dog(s) will have lots of fun either lazing around or with Ozzie running around the back yard or in the house. I have a huge bowl of water I keep outside for them for when they get thirsty and soon might get a little pool soon for some dogs that like water to play in for summer. (If any pet staying gets dirty a complimentary bath will be given) I am available for boarding during most of the year unless I don’t show up on the search (I do travel a lot). I really hope you choose to trust your pet to me while you’re gone! (Any damages caused by client pets must be reimbursed by pet parent) I work from home so that makes it easy to always be able to keep an eye on any animal staying with me. There’s a baby gate in the hallways as well that gives them a bit of room to play and spread out. At my own home when out for play or for a potty break all animals are monitored in the back yard. When on a walk I make sure the pup has enough space to sniff but also is close enough to react quick should anything happen.

About: I used to be a Rover sitter while I was in Nursing school several years ago. I've taken a break while working and having kids but I'm excited to help out again! I currently have two kids (4 and 6) that would come along with me to drop in visits or walks. They are very comfortable with animals and know how to be calm and gentle too. We love helping get energy out, playing, going on long walks and giving lots of pets and love. I'm a homeschool mom so we are usually home 5 days a week and I'm usually working as a nurse 1 day on the weekend. My kids and I always take our own dogs on walks, so we would love to take a long walk with your dogs, play with them and give them lots of pets!

About: We have had dogs for over 20 years. Most recently we had a Yorkie that passed after 12 years. Probably our favorite pet that we still miss. My wife and I are retired and have flexible schedules. Hope to meet neighbors and get to know their pets. My wife and I are retired and both of us enjoy animals. Lots of free time and flexibility of schedules. We both would like to fill that time doing some pet sitting with Rover. I do not plan to keep animals in my house. I also do not want to stay in another persons house overnight to watch pets. Been retired however I do have very flexible availability during the day and evening.

About: I grew up in an animal-friendly household among big dogs, small dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, lizards, ferrets, you name it! I have experience with animals of all ages, abilities, and temperaments and strive to do what I can to keep them happy and comfortable! I am a full time college student pursuing music, so I will have the occasional concert that makes me unavailable, but I often have the weekend free or evenings/nights/early mornings. I definitely strive to leave everything in a client’s home just as I left it, besides a happy and/or well-fed dog, cat, or other furry or scaly creature. As long as I know where to locate the food, bowls, leash/harness, and/or backyard I’m good!

About: I’ve spent the last 15 years caring for my own dog, Oscar, who is nearly 15 years old, as well as helping friends, family, and neighbors care for their pets, including cats. Oscar is in his senior dog era, so I am knowledgeable and empathetic to what senior dogs may need. As a teacher, I am dependable, patient, and attentive to detail. My schedule also allows me to be especially flexible during the summer to meet you and your pet’s needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing on the couch, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll treat yours as if they were my own. As a teacher, I have a flexible schedule during the summer and am available throughout the day to provide attentive care for your pets. During the school year, I am available after work, on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I understand the importance of consistency and will work with you to maintain your pet’s routine as closely as possible. I will treat both your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. You can count on regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My camera roll is probably 90% pictures of my dog, Oscar, so it’s safe to say I love sharing updates and photos while you’re away!

About: Your dog will get the attention and love you provide even while you are away with lots of cuddles, potty breaks, walks and playtime. Our family dogs are members of our family and while yours is here- they will be too! Feel confident your pup is being cared for, played with, and loved on while you are away. I currently have one resident cat (figaro) and 2 small dogs (Ozzie and Hopper both Boston Terriers). Both are friendly towards both cats and dogs and love to play. Also have 2 older teenagers in the home that will play and give visiting puppies and dogs extra attention and affection. I would love to care for your fur baby and look forward to hosting in our home. I work from home so can be available for as many potty breaks as needed. I can provide any schedule that your dog is used to already. I have two friendly dogs to keep your up company. Dogs can be crated at night or sleep with us in our bed whatever you prefer.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Ashville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Ashville on Rover is $17.04 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,146 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ashville. 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 Ashville. 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 Ashville.

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 Ashville. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
