About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid, and pets are family to me. I am a very active person, I love to go on long walks and play outside - turns out, so do dogs! I'm currently working part time with a mostly self-set schedule, so I am flexible on timing for walks and drop in visits! I do travel for work, and am only in the area for certain months of the year - so am unable to accommodate repeating/long term bookings at this time. I can accommodate all types of schedules and situations to make your pet more comfortable, and allow them to stick to their normal routine in the home.
“I am so glad to have chosen Savanah to walk my precious girl, Scout, while I’m at work. She gives thorough and thoughtful updates and gets amazing photos of my happy girl. Savanah is so sweet and you can tell she really cares. She is reliable and a great communicator. She did everything I requested and was sure to confirm she did so at each visit. Scout was extra playful and happy everyday after Savanah’s visits!”
About: What sets me apart as an exceptional sitter is my unique ability to handle challenging situations. Having nurtured a rescue who struggled with trust, I understand the patience and empathy required for such cases. Moreover, my experience transitioning from Asheville to Marion equips me with diverse skills adaptable to various environments. I excel in not only basic care but also in providing specialized attention tailored to individual needs, be it working with energetic puppies or ensuring the comfort of senior animals. Given my current availability, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. With a flexible schedule, I can ensure ample time for both your dog and cat, catering to their individual needs. My commitment to structured activities and routines guarantees a stable and enriching environment for your pets. In both my home and yours, pet safety and comfort are paramount. At my place, a secluded yard and an invisible fence guarantee a secure outdoor environment for playful activities. In your home, I prioritize creating a familiar setting, maintaining routines, and implementing any necessary safety measures, ensuring your pets feel at ease and well-cared for.
“We've been using Stacey for dog walks for about a year now, and would recommend her to anyone. She is very reliable and I never habe to worry about anything. Our dog loves her also”
“My puppies are so happy and chill after their walks with Alexis. Alexis sends me the route, distance, and a pic. Pups like her so much they wait for her on her days off! So glad I did this for us.”
“I highly recommend Laina. I hired her to take and pickup Peace at daycare. Peace has anxiety and Laina was very gentle with him. She has patience, compassion and very understanding…..which is what I need when it comes to Peace. Thank you Laina! 😊👏😊👏😊👏👏👏👏❤️”
About: Hey there! I've always been a big animal lover since I could remember. I've spent a lot of time around dogs and have experience in caring for them. I have owned dogs before and currently have two rabbits but I would love to spend time with your furbabies! I’m currently on a 6-week break from school and will be available to walk dogs on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. I work Wednesday through Saturday during the day, but if you really need me to walk your dog in the evenings on those days, I might be able to work something out. :) If your dog experiences high anxiety or needs special attention, I am more than willing to be patient with your dog during walks until they feel comfortable with me
“Kara was flexible and understanding when I needed to change the time of our walk because of the heat. (My dog doesn’t handle heat well.) Then, she was understanding when thunder frightened my dog, and my dog refused to continue the walk.”
About: Growing up with at least two dogs in my home at any given time, I have gratitude for the joy and companionship pets can bring to a family. I've cared for my senior cat for the past 19 years. She is the love of my life who is now suffering from kidney failure. 😞 While in high school, I spent 4 years in the dog grooming industry. To this day, I am always the first to volunteer to look after pets for my friends and family. I now work at the Western North Carolina Nature Center by day where I train to handle animals during educational programs and support their well-being as "ambassadors" of their species. I have respect and love for all animals! 🩷 I'm also passionate about holistic pet health and cognition, and can accommodate to your pet's special diet protocol or exercise plan. In addition, I have experience giving around-the-clock care for puppies and senior pets and can administer medication when needed. I also offer nail trims and baths for well-behaved pets. Outside of my time spent at the Nature Center, I also work part-time in a hybrid role as an administrative assistant. This allows me the flexibility to meet you and your pets needs. I look forward to spending quality time with your best friend! I'm currently working part-time, with ample time off in the afternoons and evenings. I'm available after work around 3pm for walks and drop-ins, and am able to offer potty breaks every 4 hours or so during house sits. My days off from work are Wednesday and Thursday--if you'd like to request a walk or drop-in during an earlier time frame on those days, let me know! 😊 I am a compassionate and detail-oriented pet sitter. I really enjoy spending quality time with my client's pets. I'm happy to spend lots of time outside as needed.
“Shannon has watched our fur babies on multiple occasions when we have been out of town. She also walks our dog, Winnie. She is very responsive and timely. We have had a wonderful experience with her, and I often recommend her to friends. I highly recommend her for all of your pet sitting needs!”
“Sadie was absolutely wonderful with my senior pup, Ziggy. He loved her immediately, and she was a dog whisperer with getting him to walk around the neighborhood. We both look forward to seeing her again soon. Thank you, Sadie!”
About: Lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for dogs, cats, and just about any four-legged friend! I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors to care for their pets and homes, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m an active person who loves getting outside, so whether your dog enjoys leisurely neighborhood walks, playing fetch, swimming, hiking local trails, or going on new adventures, I’m happy to match their energy and personality. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—from laid-back lap dogs to high-energy adventure companions—and I’m committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently available Monday through Friday and have a flexible schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s an early morning walk, a midday potty break, an afternoon adventure, or an evening check-in, I’m here to provide dependable, loving care whenever you need it. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special care to ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe. I live on a large property with plenty of room for dogs to explore, play, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. We also have quiet dirt roads that are perfect for walks. For dogs who love getting out and about, I’m happy to visit local parks and trails like Richmond Hill, the River Arts District Greenway, Bent Creek, and other areas throughout North and West Asheville—always with your permission and only if it’s a good fit for your dog’s personality and activity level. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, active, and well cared for.
About: We both love animals of all kinds. We have always had pets in our lives and have loved being dog sitters for friends and family over the years. We are currently the proud parents of two wonderful dogs, Honeybee and Charlie. We have experience with special care for senior dogs. Our dog Carlos was blind and deaf for the last few years of his life, and had diabetes, requiring insulin shots every 12 hours. We have some dog training skills and have helped Honeybee on her path, starting as a wild rescue puppy to being the well-behaved young lady that she is now. We believe in positive reinforcement training and understand dog behavior enough to know when to step in and intervene. I (Ethan) am currently working a very flexible schedule of driving for Uber and Lyft. My schedule allows me to be home often and to stop by and check on Charlie and Honeybee and any visiting dogs frequently when I am working. If we have doggy daycare clients I am able to stay home all day. Hope is around on evenings and weekends and is always ready for playtime and snuggles with the pups. I am currently sharing residence with my partner Hope (who loves dogs as much as I do!) and she shares in the care of all the dogs. We have a large, fenced-in yard in the heart of West Asheville. We won’t leave your dogs outdoors unattended and will respect any special requirements as to the safety of your beloved babies. We understand the need for routine in a dog's life and will be happy to abide by whatever feeding/medication schedule, exercise needs, etc. that your dog has.
About: I’ll admit it: I can’t resist big eyes and wagging tails! My goal is to spoil your dog rotten while keeping them active and engaged. While we’re out exploring, I stay focused on the fine details—consistency with training, fresh hydration, and following your specific routine perfectly. I’m a great listener and very intuitive to a dog's needs, with years of experience caring for both youngsters and seniors. My schedule is flexible, and I promise the very best care will be bestowed upon your dog every single time

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Enka
Xana seemed to have had a great time with Alyse and Moe! She got to go to the park and have a fun time which is just what she needed. Alyse was very quick to answer my request/messages and was updated throughout the full walk which was great! Id definitely rebook!
Allison was so kind and our dog loved her immediately! She was communicative, gave us a nice report, and took some great pictures of our guy. Snickers is leash reactive and Allison handled him beautifully on their walk. We will definitely be using her again in the future!
Hays is fantastic! He took to my pup right away, despite his being an excitable bark-head. He was patient, calm, kind, affectionate, and fun-loving w/ my baby boy! Hays is a great communicator; he arrived right on time and kept thing seamless and easy ~ So much appreciate it, my boy had so much fun in Hays care!
Reliable and genuinely caring. Communication was consistent and reassuring, with thoughtful updates that made it easy to relax while I was away. She showed up on time, followed all instructions closely, and clearly took the time to make sure my dog felt comfortable and cared for. I came home to a happy, well-looked-after pup, which says everything. I’d absolutely trust her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Enka is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $41 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 November 2026, there are 978 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Enka. 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 Enka. 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 Enka 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 Enka. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
