“Morgan has been amazing with my pups! They clearly love her and she has been very responsive and any directions and routines. It has made going back to work after the summer so much easier with a new puppy.”

“Ryana is great and my dog loves seeing her! Addie was sick while I was at work and Ryana went above and beyond to check on Addie and ensure she was feeling better. Addie is always excited to see her and I will definitely continue to book with her.”

“Ayesha was so patient and sweet with our crazy puppy Balto. Always on time and following all the instructions for your pet’s unique needs. Will be definitely booking with her again as Balto loves her!”

About: Dogs are the center of my universe. I've spent the past 4 years as a local and state lobbyist to pass humane legislation that protects both dogs and cats. It's not just a job, it's my life's purpose. I recently lost both of my dogs, and I miss them every single day. Spending time with dogs isn't just something I enjoy, it's something I need. I don't have any pets right now and I would love to have a furry friend to keep me company. I love to get down on their level for kisses, let them sniff the grass, and just give them the freedom to just be a dog. I'd be honored to give your dog the same love and care I gave mine, and to get a little of that joy back in return. I am currently retired and can be available any day of the week after 10:00 a.m.. I am also available as late as 9:00 p.m.. I currently do not have any pets which makes my apartment ideal for dogs who need one-on-one attention. My lease does not allow overnight visits but daytime visits are perfectly okay.
About: I have been absolutely obsessed with animals since I was a tiny baby! I volunteer at the Animal Protection Society of Durham, and dog/ cat sit for friends and family! I am currently going to Wake Tech for Psychology. I’m taking majority online classes, so my schedule is pretty free and I am very flexible I have two dogs of my own which I take care of. They don’t necessarily get along with cats which is why I don’t own one.

About: With over 35 years experience, I have been honored to be a mom to a number of medium and large sized pups. Additionally, I have fostered and helped train dogs of all sizes. Currently I dog sit and cat sit for families across the country. Listening to body language is important with both dogs and cats, and I love watching for those subtle cues that mean so much. My work schedule is highly flexible allowing me the ability to put your pets’ needs first. Keying on your pets’ vibe, I am happy to do what is needed from snuggly on the couch to playing fetch to going for a walk. I am happy to meet your pets’ needs based on their trust, energy level and wants. Whether dog or cat, I wait for them to tell me what they want and guide our interactions. I am a mature woman who will care for your house and your pets while you are away as if they are my own. I love playing with both dogs and cats and find my happy placing while out for a walk with pups.
“Sriya is so patient with Barney's "quirks". She not afraid to step in for him to get to know her and is firm when she needs to be. So thankful to find a walker/pet sitter willing to work slow in gaining his trust!”


“Cassie agreed to walk Cooper on late notice. We were a bit worried because he can be difficult with people he doesn't know, but Cassied stopped by to meet him before we left and she is a natural. Very happy with Cassie!”

About: I'm not a professional with fancy certifications, but I am a dog person. I owned and raised my pit mix from puppyhood for 13 years—so I know what it takes to care for a dog properly, keep them happy, and build real trust. The biggest advantage? I work from home. That means while I'm watching your dog, they're never alone for long stretches. They get consistent attention, regular breaks outside, and someone who actually cares about their wellbeing—not just a checkbox on a care log. Your dog won't just be watched; they'll be treated like they matter to me, because they will. I work from home, which is the real game-changer here. Pet sitting isn't a side hustle for me—it's something I can genuinely fit into my day without it feeling rushed or like a checklist. When I'm watching your dog, I can check in throughout the day, take them out for bathroom breaks, keep them company during work calls (the calm kind), and make sure they're getting the attention they need. No long gaps where they're waiting alone wondering when someone's coming back. It's flexible too. I can work around your schedule—early morning, afternoons, weekends—because I'm home anyway. Your dog gets consistency and care without me having to squeeze them into an already-packed day. In my home: Your dog gets a safe, comfortable space where they're never alone for long. I work from home, so I'm there throughout the day—letting them out for bathroom breaks, keeping them company, and making sure they have water and a calm environment. They'll be treated like they're part of my routine, not an inconvenience. In your home: I respect your space and your dog's routine. I follow your instructions on feeding, walking, medication, or anything else specific to your dog's needs. I'll send updates so you know exactly what's happening, and I treat your home with the same care I'd want for mine. Either way: Safety and trust are everything to me. I know what it's like to care deeply about a dog—I had mine for 13 years. Your dog won't just be fed and let outside; they'll get genuine attention and someone who actually notices if something's off.
About: As a healthcare professional, I understand the importance of patience, reliability, and paying close attention to individual needs. I bring that same level of care to every pet I look after. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including my own senior dog, so I'm comfortable following detailed routines, administering medications when needed, and giving extra attention to older pets or those with special needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply wants a calm companion, I'll tailor my care to their personality and routine. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I'll treat your furry family member like my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. I intentionally schedule my days to provide dependable pet care. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or sitting, I make sure every pet receives personalized attention, exercise, companionship, and plenty of love while their owner is away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions, provide plenty of attention and affection, and keep a close eye on your pet's well-being. I also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Cynthia is amazing with my girl Riley! She understands her needs and always provides detailed notes on her time with my girl. We will definitely reach out to Cynthia again! Thank you so much!”

About: Being extremely attached to my own dog and cats, I understand how hard it is to be away from them! You can rest easy, I will care for your animals as if they were my own. Big and small, cat and dog, I love them all! Please note: I only accept dogs in my home for boarding that have been around cats and are known to be cat-friendly. I work a flexible schedule, and come check on your pets morning, evening and possibly also mid-day. Let me know what you need and I will make it work. I can either come to your house to let your pet stay in his/her own environment or if they come to my house to stay, they will join my menagerie for their visit. I have kitties, so they must be cat-friendly. At my house, the day starts with a potty break in my fenced yard, followed by a 20-minute walk either in the morning or at lunch time. There is a second walk of a at least 20-minutes after work around 7 and potty breaks, pets and treats on my work breaks. There are pet beds all over the house, kitties to play with and my dog Sadie (a mix, around 50lbs). My pets range at night but guest pets have to be crated at bedtime. I can put the crate in my bedroom if it will make your pet more comfortable.
About: **please contact at least2 days in advance so I can accommodate your req** I treat all animals like family! I’m a dedicated dog mom of nearly 10 years with hands-on experience caring for friends’ and family’s pets. I’ve raised my own pup from 6 weeks old and am comfortable with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet seniors. My Boston/Jack Russell mix keeps me active, so we’re always walking, playing, and staying engaged. We both love meeting new furry friends and making them feel right at home! I have a hybrid work schedule, so I work from home multiple days per week (Tues, Thurs, Fri). I have the flexibility to drop by for visits/walks during work hours while you're away, as well as most weeknights. On weekdays I am available for either 2, 30 min drop in/walks or 1 hour long visit. You are welcome to drop your doggo off at my place during those times as well. Ideally, I'm looking for a few repeat clients so I can really get to know your fur child. I have a nice apartment in a quiet, residential neighborhood with a large, enclosed backyard. My dog Felix loves playing with new friends. We play ball, take walks, and have plenty of indoor toys for when it's too hot out.

“Justice came for a meet and greet ahead of time which eased a lot of anxiety…He arrived on time each morning, walked my dogs, sent pictures and a report each morning immediately at completion of my dogs walk…They felt comfortable immediately with Justice…His very calm demeanor and love of animals showed thru in all that he did thru the week… I feel very comfortable giving him the highest recommendation and would glad utilize his services again in the future…”

Erin was amazing! She was able to accommodate my last-minute booking request, arrived promptly, and was incredibly kind and professional throughout the process.

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 Blands. 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 Blands.

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.

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.
