About: I've always had a love for animals from a young age. I've cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and birds of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As an active walker and nature enthusiast, I'd love the extra company! My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable and loved while in my care. I also love capturing special moments along the way and sending home our furry friends back to their parents with digital souvenirs! I currently work remote, which gives me flexibility to cater towards your pet's needs and routine. I'm generally available throughout the week, including weekends, as long as services are scheduled in advance. I'm happy to work with you and find a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and happy while you're away! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I make sure to follow care instructions closely to maintain familiar routines, and keeping owners updated with messages or photos throughout their stay.

About: I’ve cared for my roommates’ two dogs while they were at work during the day. We’d spend time relaxing together, watching TV, going for runs, and practicing basic commands like “paw” and “sit.” I really enjoyed getting to know each dog individually and learning their unique personalities, needs, habits, and learning styles. While I’ve never personally owned a dog, I’ve always loved caring for and walking my friends’ dogs whenever they need someone they can trust. I currently work from home so I have a very open and flexible schedule! I enjoy walking pets just as much as I love laying around with them. Especially when the weather is nice I can turn our walks into a longer stroll. I would love the opportunity to be a friendly, dependable, and caring sitter and walker for your pets! 🐾❤️ I live in a one bedroom apartment with an upstairs loft and additional outdoor balcony with more than enough room and furniture for your fur baby to roam and relax on. My complex includes a dog park along with a nearby shady trail for walks.

“We couldn’t recommend her highly enough. She has gone above and beyond to help and support us, always showing such genuine care and compassion for our dog, Milo. When he was unwell, she was incredibly understanding, attentive, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. She has also been wonderfully flexible and accommodating, which has made such a difference. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them as her own. Knowing our dog is in such caring, capable hands gives us complete peace of mind. We’re so grateful for everything she does and feel incredibly lucky to have found her!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 13 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve always had pets in the house since I was a little girl and currently have a 3 year old pup of my own. We trained her from puppyhood, and I have learned even more about patience, communication, and unconditional love since adopting her. Over the years, I’ve provided everything from daily dog walks to full-week overnight care. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or extended pet sitting, I always treat each pet like they’re my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away because I know how important this is for all our pets. I’m currently working a full time job but have unique hours where the alternate days and have a half day Friday. I also get every weekend off. I can use my later work days, short Fridays, or weekends to help walk or check on your pets. When I help take care of pets in the home, I always make sure I know the specific details I need to make the pets feel comfortable with me and taken care of. I have helped care for very friendly and also very scared pets and have always found they warm up to me quickly. I remain calm and loving to all the furry friends I help watch.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Newfoundlands, and I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities. My own chihuahua recently passed away, so while I’m not ready for a dog of my own, I'd love to take your friend for great walks. I’m punctual, reliable, and very communicative—you’ll always know how your dog is doing. I’m experienced with Chihuahuas, Pugs, Labradors, Newfoundlands, and Beagles, and I’m happy (and able) to match your dog’s pace, routine, and energy level. I’m comfortable with: Dogs of all sizes Leash training and structured walks Senior dogs and dogs with slower mobility High-energy breeds that need longer or more active outings Your dog’s safety and happiness come first, and I’d love to be someone they’re excited to see. My schedule is open, so I can offer flexible accommodation for morning, afternoon, and evening walks. I'm happy to accept both routine and last minute requests. I walk every day and would love for your pet to join me! I am very familiar with the neighborhoods and walking paths in the area. As a walker myself, I understand the importance of staying vigilant and aware of my surroundings, such as traffic and other pets. When walking, I will ensure your dog is leashed and safe at all times. I will honor all special requests and requirements to ensure the best care for your pet. Specific to senior dogs, I am familiar and comfortable with providing specific care and attention to mobility needs.

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have been dog sitting for my neighbors since I was in high school. Love getting to play with puppies and cuddle up with seniors who need an extra bit of love. All dogs have energy but figuring out how to bond with them the best way is the best part. I work full time and have a busy summer season. With scheduling ahead and using my evenings I can provide walks and drop ins as needed. Crates are welcome if needed! Always use a leash when walking dogs unfamiliar to me. If the client’s backyard is fenced, and no history of/way to escape, dogs can roam freely. If at my apartment I live in a secure accessed building that requires a fob for entry to building and my apartment. For drop ins, not rushing dogs so they feel comfortable with me and doing whatever business they need to.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve had many animals of my own and have cared for dogs and cats for family and friends since I was young. I treat my own dog and cats like my kids, and I’ll give your pets that same love, attention, and care. 🐾❤️ I am currently searching for a new job. In the mean time I want to fill my time doing what I love. Here to help! We have a secure, fenced-in home where pets can feel safe and comfortable to run and play. We also have a sun room for cats to bird watch or dogs to cool down after their fun in the sun 🐾 I’m also happy to care for pets in their own home through drop-in visits, and I offer daily walks to make sure your pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and instructions from you, plus sending cute pictures of your fur babies’ adventures while you’re away! ❤️

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and have experience caring for all kinds of animals. I’ve had both cats and dogs since I was a kid, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, ages, and needs. I currently have a five year old Carolina Dog who I adopted from a rescue at 8 weeks old. Raising her from a puppy has given me hands on experience with puppy care, training, patience, and all the little things that come with helping a young dog grow into a happy, well adjusted companion. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away I'm currently working a part time job at home with a very flexible schedule. I have open availability during the week as well as some weekend availability. I’ll mainly care for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable and keep their normal routine. I’ll follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, playtime, and medications, while making sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and lots of attention. I want them to feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

About: Over 20 years of experience of dog walking pet sitting - from puppies to older pups. Currently working towards certification to become a veterinary assistant :) I'm a teacher so I have plenty of time to hang out, play, and walk your pets during the late afternoon and early evenings. During the school year I'm often available on Weekends and holidays. I am currently not hosting pets in my home as I have a grumpy senior dog prone to seizures if overly excited. At your home, I will follow any rules or boundaries that you set in place :)

Qianyu is an excellent dog sitter/walker and I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for quality care for their pet-children! She is very punctual, caring, and has excellent communication. I have three very needy dogs who are quite the handful! Qianyu always comes on time, sends pictures and updates of the walks and leaves them happy. I can read my dogs well and can usually tell a good sitter from a not so good one by my dogs' demeanor, and my dogs are always happy with Qianyu - thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Carpenter on Rover is $20 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $24 per walk. 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 October 2026, there are 5,157 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Carpenter. 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 Carpenter. 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 Carpenter 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 Carpenter. On Rover:

  • 90% 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.
