About: I once fostered a very cute polydatcyl cat named Cleo and enjoyed every moment of having a fur friend around. I did not mind at all the responsibilities involved in her care and wellbeing. It only lasted for a year but I am sure Cleo remembers/misses me as much as I miss her. I respect all forms of life and I aspire to gain trust and experience in my community. I currently have full time availability. I do have extensive professional background working in leadership roles so I am very responsible and have always prioritized humanity over production. I also enjoy cooking in my free time. While in a client's home, I am very observant of hazards and potential causes for problems. My time will be spent fully attentative to the unique care instructions left by the pets family and also will remain acutely aware of the pets wellbeing for the entire duration of my stay. I have foundational knowledge in cat and dog behavior as well as an understanding of appropriate first aid if ever needed.
“Mary helped us out for a few days while we were away and I’m so happy we found her! I really felt like our dog was safe with her and that’s such a relief to have when you’re not home. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my household since I was 5, meaning I’m skilled in taking care of dogs and am ready for anything they might need. I’ve dogs at for multiple neighbors of the years, and many of those dogs have been old dogs with specific instructions to keep them healthy. I’ve done multiple weeks of overnight care for dogs as well as simple daycare or dog walks for people that need help. I’m currently studying to become a vet and I would love to have the chance to get to know your furry companion! I am open to help out any day of the week as needed. I have a part-time job with schedule hours that change each week, but none of those hours include nighttime’s. I am willing to take your pet even last minute if I am capable. In my home, I make sure to let the dog out first thing in the morning and right before bed to allow them to use the bathroom as needed. In my household I take my dog for a walk around 9 every morning and 5 every night, then feeding him at 6pm. Other food given to him includes a treat in the morning and a couple in the afternoon that I put in his bowl. In between those times, I will spend time with my dog either sitting on the couch together watching tv or playing games.
“Dylan has been an amazing person to work with. He goes above and beyond with communication and has such a caring nature. My dog gets so excited to see him. Dylan constantly goes above and beyond far exceeding my expectations of a basic dog walker.”
“Robyn was amazing with my 4 year old, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. She was extremely attentive and was able to understand Kimchi's subtle needs. I would suggest Robyn to anyone of my friends or family to have her care for their dogs. Absolutely fantastic!!!”
About: Hi there! My name is Jamiah, but feel free to call me by my nickname, Mia! I started building my pet care business in 2017. Now in 2025, I work at a non profit as a Communications & Marketing Specialist. While I took time away from Rover to start my career, my heart is calling me back to my ultimate passion-providing high quality care and comfort for all furry friends, while meeting fantastic like-minded people along the way! My love for all animals is deeply immense. Thanks to my mother-I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, as well as birds! And I was encouraged to always look out for animals and even saved a pregnant cat and raised a litter of kittens when I was 10 (I will share that story when we have the pleasure of meeting). With the animal lover trait being instilled in me, I take the utmost pride in being selected to look after yours. I currently have 1 dog (german shepherd) and 1 cat! I also take care of my mom’s dog (shepherd mix). I attended Conrad Schools of Science and chose the Animal Science career pathway for 3 years. Those 3 years provided me with the basic knowledge about all barn animals and pets. This experience enabled my passion for helping animals no matter how large or small. I’ve always taken the opportunity to volunteer and give back to shelters who need support. Faithful Friends became my home for a few summers as I walked dogs and cleaned countless litter pans. I am very well-rounded and balanced as it comes to animal care. I truly hope we get a chance to meet for your upcoming pet care needs! I do work full-time right now but my schedule is a hybrid one and thankfully extremely flexible! Do not hesitate to elaborate on your scheduling needs, I will always accommodate and coordinate with you effectively. I’m extremely open and always happy to help out :-) I will provide the utmost level of care and thoughtfulness for your pets as if I was taking care of my own pets in my household. I take your trust very seriously and it’s crucial in building a meaningful relationship as your sitter.
About: I’ve always had a furry friend by my side, since as long as I could remember. I provide reliable, patient, and personalized care to each pet I care for. I love both dogs and cats, no matter breed, size, or personality, I always make sure they’re safe and comfortable. As a responsible pet sitter/walker, I keep owners updated and follow routine in order to keep your pet happy and loved while you’re away:) Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible weekday schedule. I’m currently a student at Wilmington University, while balancing mutiple side incomes as a 23 year old in today’s world. I’m available throughout the week for walks or drop-in visits, and I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet's needs. I care for every pet like they're my own. I follow their usual routine, make sure they have food, water, exercise, and lots of attention, and I always follow the owner's instructions. My priority is keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, it doesn’t matter if the animal is aquatic, on land or in the air— I admire all life on earth! I want to use this experience towards my schooling to become a Zoologist. I have no day job so I can fully work around your schedule until school starts for me. I have transportation so I also have no issues with that as well. I am a very patient individual, and I have no issue with learning temperate and personality of each pet to guarantee a safe, fun visit!
“Courtney is the best! She was available to walk my dog last minute and even stopped by for a meet and greet. Great communication. She took him to the park, which he loves. I felt like he was in good hands especially with her background as a vet tech. Thank you!”
“Tracy is fabulous. She is professional, so loving to our dog and very punctual. Her communication is solid and she is very dependable. We are so happy to have found someone of her caliber and grateful she took on our dog.”
About: I have fostered more than 20 shelter dogs, and I volunteer at nearby shelters to take dogs out for the day. I am experienced in crate training, potty training, and other general training as well as very knowledgeable in pet safety. I am currently in school, with only a two classes during the week so I am able to take your pets into my home or I can come by frequently, never leaving them alone for more than 2-3 hours if needed! I have an apartment that your pet can be with me in, and throughout the day I take dogs on very frequent walks as well as to the parks nearby to play.
“Alison is the absolute best! We needed her help twice in the recent weeks with such short notice and she came to the rescue every time. Not only is she flexible and accommodating with our requests, she’s also extremely caring and attentive to our pup. It shows every time we got home with Lucky being super happy. Will definitely ask for her help again in the near future!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs, including my previous dog, an 80-pound Golden Retriever. She could be reactive toward other dogs while on leash, so I became very comfortable handling strong dogs, staying calm in challenging situations, and maintaining control even when she was pulling. In addition to caring for my previous dog, I have regularly looked after neighbors’ and friends’ dogs by walking, feeding, and ensuring they were well cared for while their owners were away. In my personal life I love going on long runs up to 6 miles so if you have a higher energy dog that would like to join me I would love to take them with me! I am currently a university student, and I have off of school until the spring semester begins in February. I am free most weekends, and weekdays Monday-Friday. I am comfortable your dog or dogs in any environment. I have taken care of dogs that used special harness’ or prong collars so I know how to work those if needed. I love to run and hike so I can also bring your dog along if they are extra energetic!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and an ICU nurse, so I understand how important staying active and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is—and that goes for our dogs too! Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own, I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, from Dobermans to Yorkshire Terriers. I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m happy to tailor my care to whatever works best for you and your pup. I live in an apartment, but I’m surrounded by parks and great walking areas, so I can take your dog on walks around your neighborhood or to nearby parks for some extra exercise and enrichment. I’m also a great fit for dogs who may not do well around other pets, as I’m happy to give them one-on-one attention in a comfortable environment. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll follow your preferred routine and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m also happy to send as many photos and videos as you’d like to keep you updated and give you peace of mind. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾❤️ I am surrounded by many parks, so taking advantage of the weather and getting my steps in with your dog is one way to make them feel comfortable and making sure their physical needs are met. I am trustworthy and transparent when taking care of pets. I treat them like my own while following any special care they need! I am happy to send updates through photos or videos as well.
“Veruchka has been fantastic with Holly! She was so pleasant and flexible when it came for the meet and greet and was readily available to come over to take care of our pup. She has been a joy and I love all the pictures she takes!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats—and have taken great pleasure in doing so—since I was a kid. I’ve also had a chameleon and turtles, and am always eager to learn! I am currently unemployed and have ample time to walk your pups, host them at my house, and more! I lost my own dog earlier this year and have boundless love and care ready for the pets of my community! I live in a house with a large backyard (unfenced). I also love taking long walks and have been missing the company of a fur baby when going! If crate trained, you will need to provide a crate.

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 Duncan Woods. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Duncan Woods after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Duncan Woods. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
