About: I have had dogs my entire life and have also had multiple cats. I have experience with many breeds, from small dogs to large. I often watch friends and relatives pets while they are on vacation or work. My own dogs are well trained, and I did their training myself when they were puppies. I also have experience with senior dogs who need medication and/or more frequent potty trips. I currently work part time from home, so I can easily work your pets' needs around my schedule! I have an extremely flexible schedule and am happy to care for your pet at any time. I have a large back yard with a secure privacy fence. I always test my dogs' temperaments with others before socializing them. My dogs are well behaved and extremely friendly.

About: Hi! My name is Ashton and I have 7 years experience in check-in pet care for dogs and cats. Growing up on a farm, I was always been around animals but my love for animals grew even more when I adopted my soul cat, Biscuit. If I could have an house full of pets I would, but unfortunately due to Biscuits medical issues, he requires being the only animal in the house. This is why I love pet sitting so much!! It allows me to love on so many different fur babies! I have experience with all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I can also provide extra patience/attention to animals who may be shy/nervous or may have anxiety (social, separation, storm, etc.) I am knowledgeable on specific special needs such as dietary restrictions and medication administration. As a pet owner myself, I love to provide owners a peace of mind while away from their fur babies, as well as provide reliable care and love to their pet! Can provide excellent references! Can’t wait to love on your fur babies! I currently work from home full time during the week. With my ability to work remotely, I am available during the day, as well as afternoons. Also, have open availability on the weekends. Not providing care in my home at the moment. Only available for care at the owners home due to already having a pet in the home

About: Over the past two summers, I have gained great experience watching not only my own dog but also pet sitting for my friends and family. I am incredibly reliable and my top priority is always keeping your pets safe and comfortable. I am also super active and absolutely love going on long walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and fun outdoor time with me! I currently work a part-time job, which gives me a lot of flexibility for pet care. I am always free in the early mornings to take your dog out for walks, potty breaks, and fresh air before my day starts. Depending on the day of the week, I am also available for evening visits, dinner feedings, and nighttime care. When caring for your pet in your home, safety is my absolute highest priority. I treat your home with total respect and strictly follow all entry, feeding, and care instructions. During our walks, I keep dogs on a secure, short leash, stay highly alert to our surroundings, and make sure they get plenty of fresh air and exercise while staying completely safe.

About: My name is Drew, and I am the ultimate animal lover! I spent three years in Denver working in management at an in-home pet care company. I will take the very best care of your pets and provide a fun-loving environment! My pitsky, Quest, is friendly with other pups and loves to run and play all day. If you have an animal that does not like other dogs, I will be happy to drop by and spend time with them in their comfort zone. I have owned a husky and worked with many high-maintenance breeds, as well as having experience working with animals with disabilities and administering medications. I am open to boarding at my home, walks, day visits, and addressing other health needs your animals may have. Thank you, and I hope to pet and play with your fur friends soon! I will be working from 8am - 4pm, Mon. - Fri. During the school year. I have summers off and I am available full time and occasionally able to watch during the Holiday seasons. I have a large fenced and backyard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

Banjo absolutely loves and waits for Nicole to open the door and take him on a walk. He knows her name before she ever comes which tells me that he’s very excited about the treatment that she does in making him feel comfortable on his walks. what a peaceful feeling for a dog owner to know that their dog is that well taken care of.

Lacey is fabulous! He is polite, patient, and flexible. He walked my 89 year old mother’s dog and handled her constantly changing requests with grace and kindness. Her old dog adapted quickly to his visits and waited by the door for him to arrive. He arrived on time for every walk, printed out the schedule for my mom who forgets things, and was just all-around wonderful. I highly recommend him and thank him for everything he has done.

About: I know you’ve heard the same story on here just with a different name attached to it. So I’ll save you the “I’ve been around animals my entire life speech”. If you entrust me with your animals, I will care for them as if they were my own. You’ll never have to question whether they’re being loved, well cared for, and thoroughly spoiled. I pride myself on clear communication, reliability, and punctuality, so you’ll always know your pets are safe and happy. From consistent updates to dependable care, your animals will always be treated with the attention, comfort, and affection they deserve. They truly couldn’t be in better hands. I work a full time job but it is a split schedule so my availability is different than the standard fri-sun availability that comes with having a full time job. I provide attentive, in-home pet care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medication support, litter box cleaning, and companionship, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family, giving updates and plenty of love along the way.

About: I have experience with Elderly dogs as well as puppies. I have some experience with training and am able to assist with simple commands like sit, stay, and heel. I have experience with reactive dogs as I used to have one of my own, and am very good at soothing stressed animals and keeping them under control. All types of pets are welcome. I live in a more rural area of Wilmington and have a large fence surrounding my house. Most days, my schedule is very flexible and open, and I am able to give my full attention to the pets staying with me. I am a very diligent caretaker, always keeping an eye on the pet and taking time to determine what they need when they express distress. I am very active and love being in nature, so I am happy to take as many walks as might be necessary, go to the park, or even go swimming!

About: I want to be a veterinarian, I’ve known that since I was a little girl. I am available whenever needed throughout the week. I’m more than happy to spend the night with your dog(s). I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and love meeting and playing with new furry friends. If given the chance to care for your pet I will treat them like one of my own. To me and my family dogs and cats aren’t just pets, they’re family, and I’d love to add more to it. I am a full-time manager at one of the local fast food restaurants. My schedule varies, but it’s very flexible to meet your pets needs. Besides sticking into the schedule given to me I will usually do whatever your pet asks me to do as long as they’re within your parameters. I’ve had some very demanding clients in the past so having a strong willed pet is not new to me.

Sophia did a great job of taking care of my pup, Belle, while on a walk. My dog is not always easy as she is leash reactive (fearful) of other dogs. Sophia handled her with care and was very communicative with updates. I will be using her services again!

I'd give Ashton six stars if I could. Fiona agrees. She is kind, thoughtful, and great with animals. We were visiting town for a wedding and couldn't find a dog sitter at home. So Fiona was coming with us! But she has horrible separation anxiety, so leaving her alone while we went to the rehearsal dinner and wedding. I found Ashton's profile and just knew Fiona would like her. We made the arrangements months before our trip. The day we arrived in Wilmington, Ashton met us at the house for an intro. I was so grateful that Fiona was able to meet her before we left them alone for the evening. And, as suspected, Fiona warmed up to Ashton pretty quickly. The two had two lovely, quiet evenings together (based on the photos) and I got to enjoy the wedding events without worrying about my dog. I truly can not recommend her enough. She will take great care of your pet and give you peace of mind.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Castle Hayne

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Castle Hayne on Rover is $22.95 per walk (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 1,296 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Castle Hayne. 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 Castle Hayne. 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 Castle Hayne.

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 Castle Hayne. On Rover:

  • 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
