“Kelly has been amazing. She communicates so well and has really connected with my dog. It gives me peace of mind knowing my dog is in such caring hands, and I’m very grateful for her help.”
About: Hi! My name is Lynette, and I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. One thing that makes me a great dog walker is that I love being active. I have a daily step goal that I work toward, so long walks are something I truly enjoy not something I rush through. Taking dogs on walks makes reaching that goal even more enjoyable, and I love giving them the exercise, attention, and outdoor time they deserve. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and am always willing to adapt to their individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys a leisurely stroll, an energetic walk, or extra playtime, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your furry friend and make their walks the highlight of their day! I start every morning with a walk, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy staying active and have a daily step goal, which means I genuinely look forward to spending time walking and caring for dogs. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I can dedicate time throughout the week to ensure pets get the exercise, attention, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, maintain their normal routine, and make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, water, and care. I am attentive on walks, keep dogs securely leashed, and always prioritize their well-being. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and owners.

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 Carmel. 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 Carmel.

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 Carmel. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
