About: I have always had a home full of animals which I have loved and cared for my entire life. From dogs to cats to lizards to horses, I've cared for all walks of furry life and would be thrilled to add your previous pet to my list. 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: Over the years in Carrboro/Chapel Hill, I have taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats (young and old). My schedule is quite open currently and I would love to spend time with animals of all kind! I'm currently teaching part time (T/Th 930-12pm). Otherwise, my schedule is quite open for dog walks, dog/cat visits, and other fun stuff! I will always be very diligent with any pet care issues. My partner works at a vet, therefore, I have quick access to help and am able to ask them questions regarding any animal health issues.
“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!)”
“Larissa is amazing with Marz, our 5 month puppy. She’s helped her develop confidence on walks, and was open to watching some short training videos we are using to help Marx develop loose leash walking habits. This shows up in Marz’s happy demeanor and leash comfort on walks. Larissa also plays tug and is a consistent communicator. Thank you for being such a good coach and kind companion for Marz!”
“Tina has been a great. She has really helped us during a stressful time. She has really bonded with our puppy. Her ability to walk him is one less thing I do not have to worry about.”
“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.”
“Alissa has been wonderful at every step of this process. Despite running into issues getting into my apartment, she was determined and went out of her way to successfully access Winnie to take her on a walk! She communicated well and was very responsive. I’d recommend her to any person needing a dog walker!”
“I would recommend Elena, for sure. She was trustworthy, caring, thoughtful, and dependable. When she couldn’t make it? She communicated it. She brought the mail in and returned my trash bins. Without me asking. Thank you for taking care of Mocha while we were gone!!”
“Cassie agreed to walk Cooper on late notice. We were a bit worried because he can be difficult with people he doesn't know, but Cassied stopped by to meet him before we left and she is a natural. Very happy with Cassie!”
“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.”
“Alexandra was amazing! She responded quickly to our request, communication was great the entire time, and she even added an extra day for us when we needed a little more help. I loved the pictures and little notes she left for us after each walk too!”
“Alessandra is a GEM! She is kind and gentle and knows how to make our anxious little dog feel safe. She is very conscientious and made sure she understood the details of Lou's routine (including his medication), which put me completely at ease. Alessandra gives our dog the same loving care that we do, and I'm so glad to have found her!”
“Rylie was a great communicator and was very attentive to my fur baby! She was very understanding of my dogs shy/nervous tendencies and didn’t let it stand in the way of a good afternoon walk! I was very happy with her!”

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.

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 Dogwood Acres. 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 Dogwood Acres.

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 Dogwood Acres. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
