About: Hi! I’m Morgan! I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, including horses, cats, and dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me! I currently have a sweet and silly 1.5 year old Frenchie who keeps me on my toes! I recently lost my 11year old German Shepherd, and I’ve found myself really missing that daily companionship. I’d love to share that extra time, care, and affection with your furry family members. I have experience with a wide range of dogs from pups who need strict feeding schedules, senior pups who require patience & care, to large (95lb+) reactive dogs who require solo walks and extra attention. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. You can trust that I’ll care for your pets just like you would, with lots of love, respect, and attention! (Huxley will not be joining during house sitting appointments unless your request him too. :)) I work from home so I have flexibility for local daily drop ins & walks, after work walks, or weekend care. We can discuss your needs and see how that works best for your requirements! I’ll follow any requirements you have for caring for your pets in your home! I am happy to discuss further to make sure I can fulfill your pets needs.
About: I've been caring for dogs, cats, and other pets for over 10 years, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with animals. I previously had two Labradoodles of my own, and today I'm a proud cat parent to two spoiled kitties who are my whole world! I have experience with pets of all sizes and personalities—from tiny Shih Tzus to giant but gentle Irish Wolfhounds even bearded dragons—and I understand that every animal has unique needs, routines, and quirks. Having lived with cats throughout all four years of college and cared for pets in a variety of settings, I know how important it is to earn each pet's trust and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I work fully from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I'm available for early morning, evening, and nighttime visits, as well as weekends, and I'm happy to work with your pet's regular routine whenever possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I know that every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal schedule, so I'll follow your care instructions closely. In your home, I'll treat both your pet and your space with the same care and respect I would my own. I'll make sure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during each visit, and provide plenty of love and attention while you're away. I also believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Cara was great with our dogs. She made sure everything went as we wanted, and sent plenty of pictures to show how happy the pups were. I would recommend Cara to anyone, and look forward to using her in the future!”
“Ashley was a great help. She was walked xena for three weeks and was always on time and very communicative. She treated Xena very well and Xena was happy with her. I would recommend Ashley to anyone who needs a dog walking service.”
“I had a sudden issue where I couldn’t walk my dog! Richard responded quickly to my Rover request and took my dog out that same day until I felt better. Each day they went on walks Navi came back tired and fulfilled. Richard sent me pics and updates throughout the walk. If Navi needs a good walk and I can’t provide, I will definitely reach out to Richard 🤞”
“You will not find a more caring, reliable, supportive, and all around fantastic person to care for your pets! Jenni is an absolute delight who routinely goes above and beyond to help me and my dogs out. She genuinely cares and her kindness and warmth radiate from her notes and messages. We are so lucky to have found her!”
“Polina was excellent with walking my husky this week! Our pup has a personality and is very strong, but she fell right in line with Polina. Polina is great with dogs, clearly an animal lover! We will book with her again for sure!”
“I am very grateful Katherine was able to walk my dog during the work day. She’s very punctual and easy to work with. She provided amazing updates on her services.”
About: My family has had dogs since before I was born, and for essentially my entire life. Fluent in body language and I know how to make a dog want what you want. I'll make sure your dog gets the exercise they need and stays safe the whole time. Love all dogs big and small, but if I had to choose I prefer the big ones. Bound to become one of your dog's favorite people in just a couple walks. Don't have any other jobs or anything at this time, but I have therapy appointments on Wednesdays, so I try to keep those free for the sake of my mental health Will bring water bottles on hot days to make sure everyone stays hydrated. Will probably take them to the walking trail or the field by the school to give them a chance to roll in the grass (and hopefully just the grass) and run around.
About: Hi! I’m Esme, a huge animal lover and proud pet parent. I have a Mini American Shepherd named Kita, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. While I adore dogs, I’m also a big cat lover! Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, chasing toys, or simply having someone keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I know every pet has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to get to know them. From energetic pups to shy kitties, my goal is always to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and become their new bestie! 🐾💕 Animals are already a huge part of my life! As a dog mom to my Mini American Shepherd, Kita, pet care is built into my daily routine. My days are filled with walks, playtime, training, and lots of cuddles. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so caring for pets feels less like work and more like something I enjoy. Whether it’s a dog who loves adventure or a cat who just wants a quiet companion, I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to the routines they’re familiar with, so I always try to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, meals, and, of course, lots of love. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs. Some pets love long walks and play sessions, while others prefer cuddles on the couch or a quiet companion nearby. I’m happy to adapt to what makes your pet feel most comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect both your pet’s routine and your home, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
“Hailey took great care of Bowie - offered a meet and greet and took him on a lovely walk. Helped us out last minute, too! Highly recommend Hailey for your Rover needs!”
About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and currently have a German Shepherd I’ve raised since she was a puppy. She’s almost 7 now, and through her medical emergencies and recovery I’ve gained experience being patient, attentive, and caring with pets during stressful situations. I also have two cats that I’ve had since they were kittens and have owned cats since I was a child. I regularly help take care of my brother’s dogs when they’re out of town, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and love going on dog walks and giving pets attention and companionship. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care and attention for your pets. I enjoy incorporating dog walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins into my daily routine. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet care throughout the week and enjoy making sure pets feel comfortable, active, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust someone caring for your pets, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and attention. I have a backyard for dogs to enjoy outdoor time and make sure pets are always supervised and comfortable. My cats have their own scratch posts, cozy spaces, and lots of attention, and I believe pets deserve a safe and loving environment. I always try to follow each pet owner’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel secure and relaxed while in my care.
“Jonathan is the first person who I have felt really comfortable leaving Parker with for long periods of time. His gentle nature is exactly what the Parker pup needs!”
About: As of 7/13, my weekday availability is 12-1pm (can be flexible), or anytime after 4pm. Safety is my top priority so you can relax while you're away knowing they're in good hands. As of 7/13, my weekday availability is 12-1pm (can be flexible), or anytime after 4pm. Open to walks and dropins during these times! I am completely available on weekends My wife and I live in a one bedroom apartment, but our connected living room and 'dining room' (we leave it open for the extra space) are wide with plenty of room to roam and play! We also live right next to a lovely park to smell and explore. For walking services, we'll make sure to explore a new route every chance we can so they can get their smell on!
About: I’ve spent time with canines since I could walk! Every summer my parents would rescue different canines in the local area, and leave it to me to train and care for them. I’m currently working part time, so pet care comes as a priority for me. Nothing would make me happier then caring for someone’s fur baby! I have several dog parks within walking distance of my complex, as well as a dog park inside of it as well! As for cats I have all of the appropriate things needed. Food, litter, toys, cat trees, treats and more, all waiting for new fur friends.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Castlewood is $20

I have nothing but good things to say about Ion. Right away during the initial interaction our dog Dulce, who is normally timid with new people, immediately trusted him and felt comfortable around him. He showed up at the agreed times and took her on her walks and provided plenty of updates and photos and accommodated any requests. Would highly recommend Ion if you are looking for someone who will treat your pet like his own.
We are going to miss Talia! She has been so good to Willow. She came in last minute to help me walk her, she has been so flexible and very communicative! She sends pictures during walks, takes time to make sure Willow was settled in after each walk! We wish you the best!
You will not find a more caring, reliable, supportive, and all around fantastic person to care for your pets! Jenni is an absolute delight who routinely goes above and beyond to help me and my dogs out. She genuinely cares and her kindness and warmth radiate from her notes and messages. We are so lucky to have found her!
This was our first time using someone outside of family to watch our Golden Retriever, Lucas, so naturally we were a bit nervous going in. But from the very beginning, Anna completely put us at ease. She handled the meet-and-greet perfectly—asked all the right questions, paid close attention to details, and showed a genuinely warm and thoughtful personality. Lucas connected with her right away, which meant a lot to us. While we were away, she was an excellent communicator. She sent regular updates, detailed notes, and happy photos that reassured us everything was going smoothly. It made the entire experience feel easy and completely stress-free. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and honestly, we won’t be looking for anyone else. Knowing Anna is there makes us feel much more comfortable traveling and leaving Lucas in good hands.
Emilee has been absolutely wonderful with Chewie. From the very beginning, she has been kind, communicative, and genuinely caring. It’s such a relief to feel completely comfortable trusting someone with your dog, and I truly do with her. Also, Chewie loves her!! She treats Chewie like he’s her own, and that peace of mind is priceless. I’m so grateful we found her and hope to work with her for a long time!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Castlewood on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 12,196 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Castlewood. 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 Castlewood. 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 Castlewood.

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 Castlewood. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
