“Anna was wonderful! Selah enjoyed meeting her and having a good walk with her - and getting her medications. Great communication. Warm and personable. Would definitely hire Anna again! (And Selah would like to hang out with her again!)”

“Bailey has been great to work with! She was so kind and responsive to our needs. She was observant and let us know about concerns she had when our pup wasn't feeling well. Your pet will be in good hands with Bailey!”

“Tab is so wonderful with my pittie mix, Abbie. She can be reactive on walks, but Tab does a great job of keeping her and others safe while they are out for walks in the woods! Abbie is always tired out and happy after a walk with Tab.”

“Lauren has been walking my two pups several times a week for the last few months. She’s flexible and communicative about scheduling. After a walk, she always provides a great detailed update that confirms just how observant and caring she is about each of the pups’ quirks and needs. I would absolutely recommend Lauren to anyone who wants to know their furry family members are in great hands, for visit, a walk or a trip!”

“Cassie agreed to meet on short notice and provide daily walks when my other walker had to be out of town. She did a great job and I will definitely be contacting her for additional walks in the future!”

“Alessandra is great dog walker. She understands my dog very well and takes the time to give him extra love and not just walk him. The updates are very thorough and she communicates so well with everything that’s going on. I’m really glad that I was able to find a really trustworthy and patient person like Alessandra.”

About: I have always had a home full of animals which I have loved and cared for my entire life. You should choose me if you want a warm and loving person to take care of your babies. I am a student and I have a flexible summer for the time being. During the summer I am free any day of the week, morning to night. I will always make sure to keep your pet happy and healthy, safe and comfortable. It's not an easy an thing to leave your heart at home when you have to leave. I understand that anxiety, but it is my goal to ease that worry by reassuring you that your pet is always safe and happy.
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. From taking them to their vet appointments, traveling to fun hikes, and daily walks, I have gained so much experience! I love both large and small dogs, having big dogs at my family home. I’ve taken care of puppies all the way through senior dogs. Whether it’s cleaning the puppy pads, or making a sweet loved one’s last few years more comfortable, I am adaptable to any animals needs. I have experience with administering meds for dogs as well. I’m currently a senior undergraduate student at UNC Chapel Hill pursuing a bachelors degree in Biology. This summer I am enrolled in online summer courses and looking for opportunities to help out animals needs in my area with my free time! I live in a lovely apartment complex with a dog park and safe walking areas right outside! My orange kitten lives in my apartment so if you’re needing out of house care we would need to speak about comparability with my cat.

About: Growing up with cats and neighbors with dogs, I have always loved snuggling with pets! Today, I regularly help care for my boyfriend’s German shepherd, border collie, and geriatric beagle. I recently finished my job as a medical assistant and am free for the summer! I am available throughout the day and night, even on weekdays. I don't have any pets at home, but I have a great neighborhood for walks and a nearby park. After years of babysitting, I am used to taking care of both kids and pets in a family's home. I am happy to play, walk, feed, and cuddle with your pet in your home!
“Lynsey responded quickly to a request for a last minute walk for my puppy this afternoon while I am under the weather. She greeted my little Phoebe so warmly and they were off. I am grateful for her quick response and assistance this afternoon.”

“Klaudia has been great with my anxious rescue! She lets my dog set the pace and so my dog has been learning to trust her, which is huge and doesn't always happen with new walkers. Klaudia is very communicative and has been a pleasure to work with. Looking forward to more walks with her!”

About: Owners and animals will love my service because I'm very hands on and love to engage with the animals. I have two dogs and two cats of my own who are extremely well behaved with other animals. I've worked with dogs In particular in the past and found a passion with it. It doesn't matter if it's big dogs or small, I love to meet and interact with new animals. I have worked with aggressive breeds in the past so I know how to engage and interact with different breeds and needs. I know not all dogs are the same and each dog requires different techniques for that dog to feel safe and comfortable with a stranger. I feel confident with my ability to walk or sit most dogs. I have open availability for anyone's needs! All I ask is you reach out ahead of time just incase I have anything else booked. I follow the guidelines set by the owners. Each pet is individual and requires certain attention. My job isnt to change the comfortability or routines you have set for your animals. If I encounter any concerns or have any suggestions I will always bring them to the owner before I change any daily routine.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats as pets my entire life, including my current cat, Bandit! I worked in a veterinarian office throughout high school, assisting in the administration of medications and care of animals preparing for/recovering from surgical procedures. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters throughout college, as well as pet sitting for friends, and love caring for animals! I am a recent college graduate and do not start my full-time job until October, so I am highly available for the summer to help care for pets. I have a ton of walking trails near my house and am very happy to walk (or even run, for our high energy furbabies!) as much as your pet desires. My current cat is quite shy, so I am unable to host pets for stays at my house.
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life -- I grew up with 2-4 dogs in the house at any given time, and I've had my own cat Olive for 3 years now. I love to be around animals, and I'm excited to care for yours like they're mine while you're away! I'm prepared to meet your pet's needs where they're at, from providing multiple walks a day, or just being a calm presence in the room to ease loneliness. I'm working part-time at the moment, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet, especially in the afternoons and evenings. I am also more than happy to accommodate for multiple visits per day. Safety, conscientiousness, and cleanliness are at the center of my pet care ethos. I'm happy to take in mail/packages, water plants, or do any other necessary tasks while you are away as well!
Dogwood Acres dog parents share their Rover experiences
so first I had booked the wrong dates and had ro change them the day before I was going out of town. Adam was super understanding and was still able to modify the booking. lucy loved him. he took her on long walks and hung out with her, made sure her food and water were filled and made sure the tv stayed on for sound. I appreciate you!!

Claire was super amazing to be able to walk my dog last minute after I had to rush out of the house this morning to drop off at school and drive to work without being able to take care of my dog. She came promptly and took care of my dog, made sure she pooped, and sent a lot of cute photos. I would totally hire her again.

Kelly was great! I have a small breed terrier mix puppy with separation anxiety and that is still learning some leash training. I cannot walk as fast as Maddie needs and so it was great to have someone that can walk faster or run with her. The hand off went great as well. Maddie was comfortable going with Kelly and happy when she returned. I’m so thankful that she was able to get the walk in that I can’t give her Due to my disabilities. I would definitely use her again.
