“Anna was kind and patient with my nervous dog. She is a genuine person with a genuine love for dogs and all animals and sizes in general. My anxious girl warmed right up to her and came back tired and content after their walk. If you have any doubts, don’t! Book Anna now!”

About: I have had four dogs for most of my life, and I am away at college right now and missing them, so I am taking up dog sitting. I am willing to hang out with pets literally anytime. I am always down to take them on walks or pet sit them. I will always make time for animals. I have a big backyard with a fence, so my pets do not get out. I feed pets on time every time and make sure they never have to wait to go potty.

“Mia came in, grabbed the puppies, their things, and hit the road for some serious walking time. It was great to know my beloved puppies got some mid day excercise on a rare day when we weren’t home with them. We will ask for her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve had 2 dogs for all of my life until very recently! I’ve cared for a senior dog, a service dog, and an active german shepherd / labrador mix who can walk for hours!!! I am genuinely always looking to hang out and care for other’s dogs as I know how much MY dogs love attention, love, and care :) My apartment is a one bedroom apartment but I have boarded other dogs there before, my home is their home!!! As long as you are comfortable, we can play at the park and go for as many walks as the dog cares to! (Natural home, no crazy toxins that’ll harm sweet dogs!) I am an avid volunteer and 16 hour student but my schedule is Tu&Thrusday for school; which leaves more than enough time for your sweet dogs! Even on those days, I am usually home around 6PM or even sooner! Single bedroom apartment, reliable car, CLEAN home! For my family it is important for our dogs to be in a calm, relaxing, and nurturing environment that encourages play. Now that I live on my own, my apartment is exactly that!!!! If there are any preferences for your dogs, let me know so I can make them feel at home! (Perks of me living alone : they can roam the entire apartment, dogs get dibs to lay on ALL the soft furniture, and no extra people that YOU don’t approve to be around your dog!)

About: Since a young age, I’ve always been surrounded by dogs and have experience caring for puppies, adults, and seniors. I worked as a veterinary technician for one month (I had a change of heart in career paths!), so I’m confident in administering insulin shots and giving medications. (I also had a senior dog with diabetes that I administered shots to). I’ve walked dogs and dog-sat for several people before joining this app. With two dogs of my own, I promise to treat your fur baby with the same love and attention they deserve! I’m currently a student at the University of Arkansas - so besides a few hours of school every day, I am free to spend time with your pet! For pets in my clients home, I am available to stay as long as needed and will make sure there is plenty of water, food, playtime, and potty breaks provided!

About: I worked at a dog kennel and cattery for a couple of years and loved every minute of it! I worked with dogs and cats of all breeds, temperaments, and ages! I am a remote graphic designer who would love nothing more than to fill my time taking care of your animals. My week is so open and available! I am very flexible and can work with any schedule. My home isn’t available for pets, but I’d love to work with your schedule and their schedule! It’s easy for animals to get stressed out when they’re not in their environment. I’d would love making them feel comfortable and accommodate to your animals schedule!

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with a very flexible schedule and an active lifestyle. I love being outdoors and spending time walking, playing, and exploring with dogs. I live on acreage with plenty of open space and private trails where your dog can get lots of exercise and fresh air. I’m happy to walk dogs leashed or unleashed—whatever you prefer and feel most comfortable with. If your dog is more of a couch potato than an athlete, that’s perfectly fine too! I have plenty of experience with older, calm, and low-energy pets and am happy to match whatever pace fits your dog’s personality—whether that’s an adventure walk or just relaxing together at home. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every dog like part of my family and make sure they get the attention and routine they need. Communication is a top priority for me. You’ll receive frequent updates, photos, and messages so you always feel connected while you’re away. Please note: I don’t stay overnight at clients’ homes, but I’m happy to offer walks, drop-ins, daycare, and extended daytime visits. I look forward to caring for your furry family member! With a flexible daily schedule, I can give your dog consistent care and companionship instead of rushing in and out. Your pet will always be a priority in my day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. I am reliable, responsible, follow instructions carefully, and always treat every dog like my own.

About: Hi I'm Jessica! I am currently a senior at the University of Arkansas majoring in psychology. I have been a lifelong dog lover. So much so that some of my favorite movies growing up were the Air Buddies series! I grew up with a dog, so caring for pets has always been a part of my life. Since sophomore year of high school, I've pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors, giving me experience with pets of different sizes, personalities, and routines. I know every dog is unique, and love getting to know what makes each one happiest. I am always up for an adventure, whether that is long walks, playing fetch, or relaxing with plenty of cuddles. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I'm dependable, patient, and will treat your pet(s) like they're my own. You can also count on regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I cannot wait to meet you and your pet(s)! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding instructions, exercise needs, medications (if needed), and any other preferences to help them feel as comfortable as possible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I'll keep your pet's routine consistent, make sure they get plenty of love and attention, and always prioritize their safety on walks and during playtime. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: Hey there! My name is Sam and I just moved to Arkansas from Texas! A little about me, I am a mental health therapist and primarily see clients online at this point in my career! I have been an animal lover my entire life. There hasn't been a time in my life where I haven't had an animal living with me (except my freshman year in college, but it was probably better that way!) I started by dog/cat sitting for family and friends back in Texas and that has grown into a side business that I want to bring to Arkansas. I’ve watched all kinds of pets: dogs, cats, fish, bearded dragon, ferrets, bunnies, horses, donkeys, goats, and more! I now only have one cat, Millie, who loves me and pretty much no one else. I miss having pups in my life and don't know a whole lot of people in Arkansas yet so I figured this would be a great way to connect and love on some animals! I hope to hear from you soon! My schedule is mostly consistent from week to week but I work odd hours and times. I work from home so I would be available all day! If I’m watching your pup at my home, I have an entirely enclosed fence so they would get plenty of outdoor/run time. Your pup would have to get along with cats, however mine will typically stay away if she knows someone or something else is in the house!

About: My pet care experience has taught me that every animal is unique and special in their own ways. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, communication, and commitment to providing loving, individualized care for every pet! I am currently back home from school for the summer so I have so much time on my hands that I can dedicate to your sweet pets! When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and playtime based on their needs and personality. For cats, I will clean litter boxes daily, monitor their behavior and well being, and spend quality time with them so they feel cared for while their owner is away. I can also provide updates and photos to keep owners informed and give them peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 748 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Elkins. 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 Elkins. 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 Elkins 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 .

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.
