About: I have cared for dogs my entire life, from my own pets, to taking care of friends and family’s pets. I have assisted in training exercises and am well versed in counting and reinforcing trained behavior. I have 5 years of experience with doggie day care and basic grooming services. I am available on weekdays and weekends for walking, pet sitting, or general pet care needs. I am a full time artist, so my schedule is relatively flexible. I care for my clients pets just as if they were my own, by providing focused care, attention, and love to all pets in my care.
“Eve has been beyond helpful with my two pups, really going above and beyond by sharing extra knowledge re: my puppy's recurring UTIs, sending me pictures of their poop when I requested due to my pup having loose stool, etc. She even added a walk at the last minute for me! Her knowledge, experience, and passion are obvious, and I highly recommend her!”
About: I have experience caring for both elderly and young dogs. This has equipped me with a variety of skills such as age-appropriate exercise, nutritional needs, and understanding certain behaviors and how to react. I just recently graduated high-school and need something to fill my time. Playing with your pups seems to be the best thing to fill my day! I’m free majority of the week and only work part-time as a waitress. I have a cat and dog at my house but both a friendly to other animals. If needed the animals can be put in a separate room away from clients pet.
About: Aside from having a dog in my family my whole life, I've taken care of many dogs over the years. From my neighbor's golden retriever in high school (who I would sneak over to play with when she was out in the yard) to a few dogs in my neighborhood now, I love to get to know the dogs that I help take care of. I have experience dog walking and pet sitting, both in my home and visiting the dog's home. I'm also happy to provide baths and other special care as needed. As a stay at home dad, I have a flexible schedule and can provide a lot of attention for dogs visiting our home, as well as work in a daily walk if that's part of their normal routine. We have a large fenced yard that your dog can enjoy. We've had a variety of dogs stay with us either with or without crates and we can create separate areas with gates if necessary. If your dog stays with us, I have a flexible schedule to provide a lot of attention and with a family of 5 there's always someone around to play with, pet, or sit with your dog. Our friendly beagle is always happy to have a new friend to play with and he's more than willing to share our daily walks around the neighborhood with another friend.
“Gussie did a wonderful job taking care of Simba, our geriatric Lionhead bunny. She was on time, followed instructions and was excellent in helping us during a stressful time.”
“Zoe was great! She was always on-schedule and was very patient with my weird little girl. She does things like hiding when it's time to go out and then pulling a LOT once you finally get her out. But Zoe never complained and always hung around with the baby for a few minutes of love and play after the walk. My schedule has changed and no longer need a dog-walker, but if I ever need one again, will definitely look for her!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats ranging in ages my entire life. I would love to treat your pets like my own. I have experience with separation anxiety in dogs, mischievous chewers, puppy training, and severe food allergies. I am confident in giving medicines to your fur babies as my own often find themselves taking medications. I also know how important maintaining your pups daily routine can be while you are gone. I am a teacher on summer break, therefore I am available all day to work with your pet babies! Would love to hang out with your pet on the greenway or just in the yard and fill my days with some puppy smiles. I currently have two dogs of my own Biscuit and Rusty with very unique needs. Rusty has been my companion for the last 9 years. He’s been through many moves and adjustments with me. Currently Rusty is beginning to show signs of arthritis so we are adjusting our care to best fit our little old man. More recently, my husband and I adopted a 1 1/2 year old Pit Bull named Biscuit. Biscuit has allowed me to gain experience caring for a dog with extreme allergies. She is the most playful of the two and is always keeping us laughing. I have experience giving daily medicine as well as dealing with an upset doggy stomach. We love our two fur babies and treat them as part of our family and I will extend this love and care to your fur babes too!

About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs for 15+ years, along with a variety of exotic animals including birds, snakes, rats, fish and many more. I have been walking and feeding and watching dogs, cats, horses and farm animals for 10 years. I love animals, I always have and while I work full time, I self schedule and can be flexible.

I have flexible scheduling during the day in Roanoke, and can work around your schedule even if you’re not in Roanoke. My work is accommodating and partially work from home. I like to provide my clients with updates on their pets while they are away with pictures and descriptions of anything out of the ordinary they may need to know about, and also just cute shenanigans your critters are up to each day.

About: I have had a family dog and a cat for 10+ years. I recently got my own dog the summer of 2021 and she has been with me at college in Virginia. As a college student with a dog I have learned many skills in taking care of my dog Lola! I am currently a junior at Roanoke College! Dog walking is something I’m happy to do and enjoy doing! I would love to help anyone who may need assistance with walking/checking on their dog(s). At home my family has a fenced in yard, but we don’t like to let our dogs roam without super vision. We sit outside with them while they roam around in the woods. I also love to take Lola out of structured walks in our local park.
“Elise was amazing with my 2 dogs! She was super flexible with my timing requests and even offered to let them out a second time if i needed. She showed up right on time for the 30 minute walk i booked and walked them for a full 31 minutes. Elise was responsive, tracked the walk in Rover and sent me photos of them. Prior to the walk she also came over to meet the dogs and myself so I could show her how to get in and where everything was. She went above and beyond and I will absolutely be booking her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 576 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Catawba. 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 Catawba. 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 Catawba.
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 Catawba. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
