Alexis has been walking my dog Toast for some time now. He has a lot of energy. And she is able to brisk walk with him to get all that energy out! She is also very good about communication, and gets back to you quickly. She has accommodated me on short notice numerous times when I have been in a jam!

About: I have raised a puppy from 7 weeks old to 3.5 years old, and I also took care of my childhood 15 year old senior chocolate lab, giving me firsthand experience with the full spectrum of dog ages. I have spent time training my own dogs and learning about different training techniques, which I genuinely enjoy. My experience includes working with reactive dogs, and I believe in supporting owners without judgment. I am happy to work alongside them to manage and support pets' behavior. Additionally, I have experience administering medication to dogs, so I am comfortable and capable of handling any special medical needs your pet may have. My commitment to providing attentive, personalized care ensures that your pet's well-being and happiness are my top priorities! Use my promo code to get $20 off your first booking! Linked here: https://www.rover.com/sit/inesf75094 OR use the Promo Code: INESF75094 I am currently working remotely, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available weekdays and weekends to walk dogs, do overnight stays, or drop in. I care for pets in my client's homes with the utmost dedication and attention to their individual needs. I have experience with my family dog of 15 years, a puppy I rescued and gave to my sister, and a dog I rescued from the streets who has become the light of my life. I have walked and cared for all three by taking them on regular walks, adventures, and hikes, always advocating for their space and listening to their cues. I ensure they are fed high-quality food and treats and take them to the vet as needed. I also prioritize their safety and comfort by taking them out early in the morning and late at night to avoid the heat. My approach is rooted in love and respect, and I always aim to create a nurturing environment where they feel happy and secure.

About: I've grown up with several cats. My best friend and the love of my life is a tabby cat I've had since I was 12 years old. I didn't have a dog growing up but I frequently cared for my neighbors Great Pyrenees. My first dog as an adult was a rescue coonhound mix and my current dog is a purebred Redbone Coonhound. I live in an apartment with 2 cats and a dog. I work part time at Food Lion, but I'm wanting to be a full-time pet sitter. Humans are too complicated for me. Plus it gives me the opportunity to spend more time with my dog! I live in an apartment but I'm very active. I utilize all the trails and parks in the area and I bring along my buddy Kashmir, my Redbone Coonhound puppy who loves other dogs!

About: I love all creatures. I personally have 3 of my own(2 dogs/1 cat) and I'm always looking to meet and care for other ppl's creatures when need be. I live near the Asheville airport & work nearby. I work day & evening shifts, which gives me time to visit creature clients. Prefer no overnights, due to my pets, but can swing a night or 2 if needed. Can do early am/late pm visits. I’ll make sure your babies are well taken care of. If they allow me I will give them lots of hugs, maybe a kiss or two. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Jennie was wonderful with my elderly, blind dog Rand. They had a great walk, she's very patient with him as he moves really slow. She sent pictures and stayed at least the full half hour. I will certainly re book!

About: Hi there, I'm Adaira! Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them brings me so much joy. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, I provide care as if they were my own. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your beloved furry (or feathered) family member is receiving loving, attentive care while you're away. That’s why I offer: - Reliability and communication, with regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing - Compassionate care tailored to your pets' needs - Experience with all ages and sizes, from playful puppies and kittens to seniors needing a gentler touch - Flexible services, including walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and overnight care in your home - Farm sits, exotics (rabbits), and backyard chicken experience Your pets deserve the best care, and my goal is to give them comfort, love, and a happy routine while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pet family! I currently work from home with a flexible schedule, so I am able to work around your pet's needs and routine to provide attentive care, day or night. My house is home to two mild-mannered senior dogs, 2 aloof cats, and one firecracker rabbit. I am currently only offering boarding in my home for cats. I offer a private, spacious guest room for our feline guests to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at ease during their stay.

About: Growing up I always had pets; dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, fish and have always been an animal lover. Two kids later, potty training another living thing is not a priority but I cant resist tail wags and couch snuggles whenever I’m around animals. I am very active and would love to be the person to help get the zoomies out of your doggo or check in on other furry friends. I have had dogs of my own and have experience with crate training and will help to encourage existing basic training behaviors. I work remotely full time and am typically an early riser. I have two kids that keep me busy but my schedule is very flexible. I am happy to come over to check in on your fur babies, take them on walks or sit with them for a few hours while I get my work done.

About: Rescuing dogs — especially puppies — is the most rewarding feeling in life. The most important thing with our furry friends is consistency. If you're stricter with your dog, you need a sitter who'll uphold those rules, not let them slide. I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family for years, and I've learned that it's not about what I want — it's about honoring what the owner has built with their pet. I work with the public in my day job, so patience is second nature to me. Pets are no different. They need someone who can read their energy, stay calm, and meet them where they're at. I also love running and playing with animals. Exercise is huge — but I get that a walk isn't always about distance. Sometimes they need to run. Sometimes they need to stop and smell everything. I match their pace, not mine. I don't know if anything really sets me apart from other sitters. I just genuinely want to be there for the furry family member. My availability in inconsistent due to Firefighting but I will always respond as soon as I'm able too. I understand due to my schedule I won't the best sitter for if you need someone daily, but if you need someone to drop-in, walk your dog, or just need a night out, feel free to leave a message. Currently working for a fire department, schedule can be inconsistent. Great for drop in play times and walks. Days off from fire department can be great for unexpected care. Currently unable to have pets in home due to renting rules. Will make sure to confirm and follow all rules with you before accepting the job.

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!

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’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: My family and I combined have 4 cats and 5 dogs. I have one dog of my own, Biscuit, who is my entire world. I only have summers off and my family travels a lot throughout the year, so I am always the one entrusted to watch our dogs and cats. I’ve taken care of 5+ animals multiple times on my own over the course of the last 3 years. I am a teacher so I am currently out of school for the summer which means I am readily available to care for your pets throughout the week. I currently have a part-time babysitting job which occupies my time most days from 8:00-1:00, but can be available a couple hours before and also available afterwards! This will change with the season, but I will update my availability when school starts again! I can easily follow directions to accommodate your pets needs. With my experience in caring for my family’s dogs and cats, I know how to administer medications and crate them.

About: I’ve loved dogs for forever and am happy to share my space and love with yours as long as they are house trained and respectful of my rescue hound. I have a big fenced in yard, work from home, and walk my dog daily (often on hiking trails). Happy to give your dog the same care and attention! Layla has a button she presses when she wants to go outside, I’m working on teaching her the command “shut the door” :) would love to work on training for fun with your dog too! There is plenty of room for crates (if you prefer) & to separate them during feeding time. Dogs are welcome on my furniture including my bed.

We have had Alexis caring for our animals for over a year now, and we truly couldn’t be happier with her!. She is incredibly reliable, gentle, caring, and attentive to every detail. Our animals absolutely love her, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing that she keeps a watchful eye not only on them, but on our home as well while we’re away during the day. I am very particular about who I trust in my home and personal space, and I feel completely comfortable and at ease knowing Alexis is there. She treats our animals with genuine love and care and our home with the utmost respect. Having someone we can trust so completely is invaluable! We are so grateful to have found Alexis and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, trustworthy, and truly caring person to care for their animals!

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 for Dog Walking in Avery Creek on Rover is $19.26 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,047 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 your 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 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 Avery Creek.

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 Avery Creek. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% 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.
