About: I am a veterinary assistant (coming from a emergency and specialty hospital setting) with a background of animal boarding/daycare experience which includes basic grooming (nail trimming, anal gland expression, bathing...), training, and play. I'm comfortable and experienced with all types of animal behavior and am more than happy to accommodate special needs! I am skilled in dog and cat medication administration: intranasally, subcutaneously, orally, and intramuscularly. I am also RECOVER certified in dog/cat CPR BLS/ALS and well versed in handling animal emergencies and events. I am also comfortable with chicken (just chickens at this point in my career), rabbit, and guinea pig care including SQ, IM, and oral medication administration. I love animals and i'm elated to have the opportunity to take care of your babies! I'm currently a part-time worker at a general family vet practice and pick up shifts occasionally at an emergency veterinary hospital. My schedule is a little flexible due to this fact and my availability will reflect this! I do own two (2) cats of my own and will ask if your pet is comfortable with being left for maximum 2 hours at a time, no more than once a day so I can check up on them. This is for house sitting only. When visiting your home I'll be conscious of how your pet receives me. For bright, young puppies and kittens, I'll keep them entertained and stimulated for the length of my visit, making sure there is no signs of trouble or illness. I'll be sure to clean and sanitize myself before and after each visit with these puppies/kittens to ensure their safety and health. The same applies with young and old adult dogs and cats, taking into consideration the special needs that come with age.

About: I have cared for dogs of all different ages and breeds from senior Italian Greyhounds to Leonberger puppies. Safety and comfort are my top priorities for pups and I believe every dog needs his or her special time to just be a dog during the day. I have a lot of free time to dedicate to your pup! I am experienced with administering medicine to older dogs/dogs with anxiety. I also have the energy and patience for younger dogs, and am able to walk multiple dogs at a time, if it is needed. I’m available for walks and overnight stays. I have reliable transportation for doggy day adventures! I look forward to hearing from you. Please feel free to ask my any questions you may have. I currently have open availability and am looking forward to meeting new doggo friends for day care, overnight care, walks, and drop-ins. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! When I'm dog-sitting or walking, I am happily and fully committed to your pup. No dog is the same, just as no person is the same. Each family has its own culture and needs. I want your animal friend to be as comfortable as possible, so I will follow any routines or dreams you have for them.

About: As long as I can remember I’ve lived with animals. Not just dogs, I’ve raised chickens, Guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, geckos, and I helped birth puppies once 😂 My partner and I are full time Pet Sitters! We are available to house sit on weekdays, weekends, holidays, and overnight. We require a meet and greet before all of our sits and prefer booking confirmation 2 weeks before your trip, but we do have sympathy for emergency situations and are always happy to help. Whenever I take care of your animal I will always make sure to take very good care of the home I’m staying in, as well as the animal or animal’s I’m taking care of. I’ve never once missed a meal time or potty break. Any Pet sitter can promise to take care of your Animals basic needs, but I can promise you your animals will be loved by me the same way as if you never left, while you’re away. If there’s any Training you’d like me to keep up with while you’re gone, just let me know and I’ll make sure to practice with them.

About: I am a life-long dog owner and have personal and professional experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I have worked as a dog walker and pet sitter since 2015. I bond well with pets of all personality types and breeds. I love to get outside and walk, especially with a pup! I also have experience with cats and am happy to pet sit for any of your loved creatures! My schedule is very flexible and my primary availability is weekday mornings. Do not hesitate to reach out because I can often make things work! I like to meet your pet where they are at and work with their personality type. I can provide play time, pets, and cuddles, or keep it to a straightforward walk if your pup means business.

About: I have been pet sitting since 13 years old and I have been volunteering about three times a week at Orange County Animal Services where I walk and provide enrichment for cats and dogs. I’ve taken care of a variety of animals- dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, lizards, guinea pigs, and even rats. I have experience with all ages, behavior, and energy levels, as well as taking care of multiple animals at one time. I work at Green Beagle Lodge, a daycare and boarding facility where I oversee playgroups and do stuff like cleaning ears and eyes, balming paws, brushing, etc. I work three 12 hours shifts and week, Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, as well as Thursday evenings from 4pm to 7pm. I am available Thursdays before 3pm and all day Sunday, Tuesday, and Friday. I am available for drop in visits, such as a couple time a day to simply feed and walk your dog or cat (or other animal). I can also do more involved pet care, such as staying overnight and hanging out with your fur baby all day!

About: My pet care experience is rooted in both professional handling and deep personal devotion. For a year and a half, I worked in a PetSmart grooming salon, where I gained hands-on experience handling dogs of every size, breed, and temperament. That environment taught me how to accurately read canine body language, safely manage extra-large or anxious dogs, and keep pets calm and comfortable. On a personal level, I cared for my own dog, Colby, until he recently passed away at nearly 14 years old. Navigating his senior years made me highly proficient in administering daily oral medications, managing strict supplement routines, and understanding the gentle pacing, empathy, and patience required for older dogs. Additionally, I lead a very active lifestyle (I'm frequently trail running, rucking, and training in my free time) which means I have the physical strength and stamina to handle heavy pullers, manage giant breeds, and take high-energy dogs on long, rigorous weekend walks to burn off their excess energy. Whether your dog needs a slow-paced, gentle sniff around the block or a highly active weekend workout, I have the physical capability and professional experience to match their needs safely. I work a very steady daily schedule that was essential when caring for my senior dog, Colby, who recently passed away at nearly 14 years old. I am off work by 3 or 4 PM every weekday, making me highly available for late afternoon walks, and my weekends are completely open for longer check-ins or daytime adventures. Right now, I'm simply looking to make some new four-legged friends and spend quality time with animals! Drawing on my year and a half of professional grooming salon experience, I am highly comfortable safely handling large breeds, strong pullers, and dogs that need calm, confident direction. I also have extensive hands-on experience administering oral medications and supplements, so senior or special-needs pets are in very capable hands.

About: What sets me apart is my personalized and attentive approach to pet care. With over 8 years of experience, I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s energetic walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to giving pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care is an essential part of my weekly routine, and I structure my schedule to provide consistent and attentive care. My mornings typically include check-ins or walks for pets, ensuring they start their day with exercise and attention. I also plan my mid-day breaks or work intervals to accommodate feeding, potty breaks, or playtime as needed. On days when my schedule includes specific commitments, like work or classes, I always make time before and after to ensure pets are cared for without any interruptions to their routine. My approach is adaptable, allowing me to meet the needs of pets and their owners, whether they require short visits, extended care. I strive to maintain a pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to ensure their comfort and minimize stress. This includes following feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care instructions, such as administering medications or specific training. I also prioritize keeping their environment clean and safe, making sure food and water bowls are sanitized and their living area is tidy. While in my client’s home, I respect their space by leaving it as clean and organized as when I arrived, ensuring a worry-free environment. When pets stay in my home, I create a safe, welcoming, and pet-friendly environment. I designate areas where they can relax, play, and feel at ease. I adhere to their usual feeding and exercise schedules and provide plenty of attention and enrichment activities. For dogs, this includes walks, outdoor play, and cuddles; for cats or smaller animals, I ensure they have quiet spaces and interactive play. I also take precautions to ensure a safe environment by securing harmful items and monitoring interactions if I have other pets.

About: Hi! I'm a full time stay at home mom of two kids and a pet parent of two furry family members, Togo (our beloved dog) and Ninja our cat. Animals are a huge part of our everyday life and I know how important it is to find someone reliable and caring to look after your pet because I want the same level of care for my own. I've always loved animals and caring for them has naturally become part of my everyday life. Along with several years of dog walking and pet sitting experience, I volunteer with local dog shelters where I've successfully completed different training programs in dog behavior, safe handling and basic obedience. I'm comfortable working with dogs of all sizes including rescue dogs who may need extra patience and love. Since I'm home full time your pet gets lots of attention throughout the day, frequently potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles and lots of love. I stick closely to routines, follow your instructions and pay attention to body language so your pet feels safe and comfortable. I love sending photos updates and messages so you can see how things are going while you're away. My goal is simple: give your pet loving, reliable care and treat them like part of our family. I'm currently a stay home mom of two kids (10 and 13) and our two furry best friends Togo and Ninja. I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and give them the attention they need. I have a big fenced yard and a gentle, funny and loving dog, Togo and our cat Ninja who likes to sleep all day long!

About: Ive grown up with animals my whole life, I started walking my family dog and cleaning up after my family cats when I was pretty young and Ive been doing it ever since! I take care of my own dog, and I have also had experience house sitting and dog walking for friends and neighbors. Im currently in school at Alamance Community College, and I have class 9-5 every Tuesday and Thursday. Other than that and the occasional appointment I am pretty open :) I like to follow a timely schedule with my dog (when I feed her, when I walk her, when I take her out, etc.) But of course it isn’t always perfect, and I am willing to adapt to any specific instructions/ guidelines.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a teenager- my family has always fostered puppies ranging in age and care level needed. I have experience with bottle feeding puppies from just a few days old until they're ready to be adopted. I also have cared for dogs with health concerns that impact ability level. My roommate is a vet tech at our local shelter, and I'm in nursing school, so anything that could possibly go wrong will be handled promptly and safely! I have experience with meal prepping for clients, drop in visits throughout the day, and overnight stays (all doggies are always allowed in my bed if that's what they prefer!) I'm in nursing school so a lot of my time is spent studying at home! On class days, I will usually be gone 9-4, oftentimes getting home earlier. Those days for the fall are Wednesday and Thursday. Alternating Saturdays are unavailable as I will have an all day clinical shift- my calendar has been updated to reflect the blocked off dates, but feel to ask for clarification on any days! The other days of the week I will be home most of the time. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex with plenty of grass and walking trails nearby. I'm on the ground floor and it's an outdoor style setup, so there's no worrying about elevators or long hallways when needing to go outside. I'm very flexible in my plan of care- I strive to keep routines as normal as possible, whether that means your fur baby sleeps in the bed or in their crate for comfort, I'm happy to oblige!

“Daysi is amazing! We hired her to walk/check up on our two big dogs in the morning and afternoon while we were out of town one day. She sent lots of pictures showing everything they did on each visit and was able to walk them both together and make sure they had time to eat since we were gone all day. We will definitely be hiring her again for future short trips!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since 2024, originally helping my mom out with her own pet sitting business. For the past 6 months, I’ve been offering services of my own. I have experience with both cats and dogs and specialize in in-home stays to keep your pets happy and comfortable in their own home. I graduated high school early in January and have been working on my pet care company since then. I am not currently in school, giving me 24/7 availability. I believe the best way to care for pets is to keep their routine as close to normal as possible. This is why I love house sitting for my clients, as their furry friends get to stay in their own home!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would so excited to meet your furry family members! I have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was ten years old and caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I am also a proud dog and cat mom, so I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for them while you are away. During my undergraduate years at Tulane University, I volunteered at an animal shelter in New Orleans, where I helped walk and care for shelter dogs. I also had the opportunity to work with service animals through my university, which gave me additional experience understanding the importance of patience, consistency, responsibility, and following each animal’s individual needs and routines. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UNC-Chapel Hill. I’m responsible, dependable, patient, and compassionate, and pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy doing outside of school. Whether your dog needs a good walk and some zoomies, your cat wants some attention (or prefers to pretend I don’t exist!), or your pet simply needs someone to stop by and keep them company, I’m happy to help! 🐾 What I can help with: - Dog walking & exercise -Cat & dog check-ins - Feeding & fresh water -Playtime & cuddles - Cleaning up after pets - Medication assistance when needed 📸 Photos & updates so you know your pet is happy and doing well I’ll always take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and preferences. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work with your pet’s needs! I’m available for check-ins and visits anytime on weekends. During the week, I am completely available on Fridays and can usually accommodate morning and evening check-ins Monday–Friday, with the exception of Wednesdays, when my availability is more limited. I’m happy to coordinate a schedule that works best for you and your pet’s routine! 🐶🐱 I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, which is why I provide in home check-ins and care at your pet’s home. I will always respect your space, follow your instructions carefully, and make sure your pet’s routine stays as consistent as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and needs so I can provide thoughtful, attentive care. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, exercise routines, and care instructions to help your pet feel safe and relaxed. As a lifelong pet owner and experienced pet sitter, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member and your home. I’ll provide updates and photos during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and cared for. I do not offer boarding in my own home, but I’m happy to provide reliable, loving care where your pet feels most comfortable—at home.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Efland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Efland is $19 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $27 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,910 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Efland. 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 Efland. 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 , 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 Efland 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Efland. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
