“My dog has a lot of separation anxiety, and Kristen was amazing with her. The communication, photos, and updates made such a difference, and I felt completely at ease knowing Rosie and Pete were loved and cared for. They’re my babies, and I’m so thankful to have found someone who understands that. Thank you!”

“Bryan was great with our dog. He kept me posted on important details I might need to know about his time with her. He was great with responding quickly when I had questions. He was patient with our dog and very trustworthy. I’d hire him again if given the chance.”

About: Welcome to my profile! I just moved here from Chicago to start graduate school. I’m a lifelong animal lover and have a dog that never slows down. My parents have four cats and a dog, so I'm constantly around furry friends and well-versed in different temperaments and routines. I also have 12 years of experience caring for pets belonging to family and friends, so I understand the importance of finding someone you trust. Whether it's walks, playtime, or cozy cuddles, I treat every pet like my own and always aim to keep them safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My schedule is very flexible, and I'm happy to work around your pet's needs! I take mostly evening and night classes, which means I'm available during the day for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting while you're at work. I'm also available on weekends, as long as I'm notified before the weekend begins. I just ask for at least two days' notice so I can make sure I give your pet the time and attention they deserve! Your pet's safety and trust mean everything to me. Since I'm unable to host animals in my own home, I will be caring for your pet in their familiar environment to help reduce stress and maintain their routine. I treat every home with the utmost respect and take pride in being reliable, responsible, and detail-oriented. I am more than happy to provide updates and pictures throughout each visit. The only thing I ask is that you communicate openly with me about your pets' behaviors and stressors so I can care for them appropriately.

About: I have excellent experience taking care of dogs, cats, lizards, fish, frogs…, etc. I have lived with dogs my entire life and about 13 years ago I adopted my own cat, Nelson! He has moved back and forth with me around the country, and has been right by my side ever since he was a kitten. I also have another cat, her name is Joanne. She’s about 6 years old and is as sweet as can be. I have experience with diabetic dogs and cats and am comfortable administering medication if need be. I love animals and will love yours like my own! I’m a supervisor at Starbucks and my work schedule isn’t set in stone, but I never work longer than 8 hours; this is the longest your animal would be alone. Having two needy cats of my own, I understand each pet is different and has their own quirks and needs! I have grown up with animals of all kinds and promise to adapt to your babies needs! I want to make sure your pets are healthy, happy, safe, and having a good time! I believe that each and every animal comes with their own personality, and we just have to adapt to them. I truly love all animals and love having them in my presence.

About: I am a 22 year old living in Asheville. I am very flexible, friendly, and reliable. As far as pet care, I am willing and equipped to handle almost any situation or pet including elderly and handicapped pets. I have a good amount of experience on Rover with cats and dogs and with my own dogs. I have dealt with puppies,kittens, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, - and am comfortable with nearly all sorts of pets. Other than a part time barista job I am available most hours during the day and at night to meet you and your pet (s) for the first time and/or care for your pet(s). In your home, I will care for your pet as best I can while ensuring their mental and physical well-being. I will keep a watchful eye on them, take them outside multiple times, and try to leave them alone as little as possible, but essentially can do whatever you want me to when it comes to routines. I can crate dogs, feed pets, walk dogs, and just hang with pets. I prioritize not exacerbating your pet's stress.

About: Ever since I can remember I have always been around and loved animals. I have grown up with animals my entire life including dogs, cats, a bunny, and hamsters. In addition to taking care of my pets at home, I’ve started caring for others’ pets over the last few years. I have experience with dogs (large and small), cats, bunnies, and horses/farm animals of all ages. I have volunteered at the local Humane Society and no-kill shelter. I currently do not work and am going to school part-time online pursuing psychology. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to love and care for your pet! I treat your pets with the love and care that I treat my pets at home with! The safety, the well-being, and the comfort of your animal(s) is my top priority!

About: I’ll admit it: I can’t resist big eyes and wagging tails! My goal is to spoil your dog rotten while keeping them active and engaged. While we’re out exploring, I stay focused on the fine details—consistency with training, fresh hydration, and following your specific routine perfectly. I’m a great listener and very intuitive to a dog's needs, with years of experience caring for both youngsters and seniors. My schedule is flexible, and I promise the very best care will be bestowed upon your dog every single time

About: As a child I grew up with cats and a dog. I love all animals and see them as people. I treat them with kindness and respect as I would any other person. I love to spend time with them and care for them, play with them and take them for a walk! I currently work part-time online, so I have a lot of time and flexibility for pet-care in my day. For walking and visits, I am available as early as 9:00am. When I care for your pet, this includes a daily walk (unless not needed), play time and plenty of snuggles on the couch any time.

My job deploys me to many areas, ranging from a week at a time to months. I’m thankful I get to bring my pup with me during these deployments. So finding a trustworthy dog walker was a priority and I hit the jackpot with Ms. Emma. She is incredibly dependable and has made my dog so much happier. Emma is professional, communicative, and simply wonderful and I can tell my pup Jazzy loves her! 10/10 recommend!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Avery Creek

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Avery Creek is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $1 and $34 per walk. On Rover, 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.

As of November 2026, there are 1,025 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Avery Creek. 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 Avery Creek. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 a map of the walking route, 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 Avery Creek 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.

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 Avery Creek. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 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 Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
