Khaleesi and Tyreika are getting to know each other, and their friendship is off to a promising start! 🐾 On their first walk together, Khaleesi took her time getting comfortable, but she enjoyed exploring and spending time with her new walking buddy. We’ll be sharing updates as this new friendship continues to grow. ❤️🐶

About: I've been caring for all types of animals since i was 12 years old. I've trained dogs such as German Shepherds and Pitbulls, and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I currently have the pleasure of loving 2 of my own special needs cats and a large tarantula. As well as this, my previous employment was a small pet care business in Georgia providing drop in visits for feeding, playtime and potty breaks, overnight sitting, walks, extended stays and taking care of exotic animals like birds. Throughout my life I've personally owned a snake, rabbit, hamsters, cats, dogs, spiders, moths and a bird! I'm looking forward to be an extra loving hand for your pets! I'm currently a full-time pet carer, caring for my special needs cats and others' lovely pets. I have plenty of time to care for your beloved fur babies and understand the ever-changing pace of life with pets, and am happy to accommodate. Any timeframe and any day, you can count on me to be reliable! Every pet parent is different and we all like specifics when it comes to the pets we love, so I always like to discuss with you about what you'd like done regarding crating, backyard time, car rides or park visits and waste disposal. I NEVER use punishment on any pet, and instead prefer a positive reinforcement only approach. I would like to be aware of your pets' allergies, triggers, injuries and fears so I can provide the best experience for them and for you!

About: Hi! We have over 9 years of pet sitting and taking care of pet experience! I used to work in a dog shelter where there was a quick need for dogs in quick care and for fun playtimes! My husband and I take care of dogs together it helps me especially if the dog is very big and tuff! We are very organized and we are quick to get tasks done. Rey is also bilingual in Spanish and English just in case so there’s no language barrier We also have 2 sweet dogs of our own. We genuinely love dogs and we just love to see them happy it doesn’t take them much to please them and to make their day which we truly have the experience and capability to be able to do that for your dog :) Rey works a part time as a paralegal. She spaces out hours for pet care so she can be able to give any potential furry friend the care that is needed! :) We live in a home with a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs have plenty of safe space to play, explore, and get exercise. We are in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood and make sure every dog in our care receives lots of love, attention, and supervision. We understand life can get busy or unexpected plans can come up, so we are happy to accommodate same-day bookings when available to help provide reliable care when you need it most. Whether your pet enjoys relaxing, playing outside, or staying active, we strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and right at home. We treat every pet like family and always prioritize their safety, happiness, and routine.

About: Hi my name is Gabby! I’m a lover of all animals and here to help you in anyway I can. I am 21 years old and a practicing veterinary technician. As an animal lover myself I own two loving dogs with friendly and playful personalities alongside two very friendly cats. Since I was 15 years old I have been pet sitting for numerous families and have always had an amazing experience with every furry friend. All animals are welcome with my services from small hamsters to large dogs I’d love to help any way I can. Please message me for all necessities during my services or accommodations that may be needed for your furry family member. Everyday I take care of my furry friends. My two dogs get their daily cuddles and plenty of food to feed their little bellies. We even like to go outside and play fetch when possible. Likewise, I love to hangout with my two cats. Playtime is our favorite time to bond and laugh. The well being of any animal is my number one priority. Weather it’s some extra cuddles or giving them some space, whatever your pawtner needs I’m here to help. I always like to introduce myself to the animals and make sure they feel comfortable with me first before we begin anything.

About: Hi! I’m Gabriel, a veteran, teacher, and lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience caring for dogs. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I live in an apartment but only board one dog at a time, so your pet gets plenty of individual attention. I’m very active and enjoy long walks, and there’s a dog park nearby where I can take your dog to run and play. As a teacher in a year-round district, I also have extended breaks when I’m available for full-time pet care, which works well for longer trips or vacations. I look forward to giving your pet great care and giving you peace of mind. I’m available to board most weekends and especially during my school breaks since I work on a year-round schedule. On workdays I’m off by 3:00 PM, which allows me to stop by homes in the afternoon and evening to care for pets. My Home: I have one dog named Libby who can keep your pup company. I only take one additional dog at a time, so your pet will receive plenty of individual attention. I also live near the Cape Fear River Trail and walk it regularly, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time and exercise. Client’s Home: When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful, attentive, and professional. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure your pet stays comfortable and in their normal routine.

About: I have been a dog lover my entire life and have cared for dogs since I was about 10 years old.

About: Hi there! I’m a mom and a graduate student, and I am so excited to be getting back to my roots doing what I love most—taking care of animals. My very first job back in the day was at a pet store caring for the puppies. I was the one making sure they were fed, bathed, and that their cages were spotless every single day, so I know exactly what it takes to keep animals happy and healthy. My love for animals doesn't stop at cats and dogs, though! I truly love all kinds of animals and have experience with everything from horses, goats, and chickens to our usual furry family members. When your pets are with me, they will be treated exactly like my own cat and dog—with tons of love, attention, and care. My Schedule & Home Because I’m a student, my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am available during the day, nights, and weekends for whatever you need: Walks to get their energy out Drop-ins for quick potty breaks, feeding, and attention Overnights so they have company while you're away Plus, if your pups come to hang out at my place, I have a fully fenced-in yard where they can run around and play safely outside. I know how hard it is to leave your pets, so I’m happy to send you quick photo updates while you're gone so you know they are having a great time. I'd love to set up a quick meet-and-greet to make sure it's a perfect match for your fur baby! My schedule is very flexible, so I have a lot of free time during the day, nights, and weekends. I can easily fit in walks, drop-ins, or overnights, ensuring your pet gets plenty of attention and regular potty breaks. ​In my home, pets can play safely in a fully fenced yard. I have a dog and a cat of my own, but I can easily crate your dog if they prefer their own space. In your home, I strictly follow your routine to keep your pets safe, fed, and loved like my own.

About: Please read before booking 🐾 Welcome to Your Pet’s Second Home! Hey there, fellow animal lovers! Are you looking for a fun, safe, and loving environment for your furry family member while you’re away? You’ve come to the right place! My husband and I are a pet care team located just minutes from Ft. Bragg, and we treat every pet in our home like one of our own. Whether you’ve got a playful pup or a shy kitty, we’ve got a cozy setup tailored just for them. With over 2.5 years of experience on Rover and hundreds of successful bookings, your pet will be in great hands. 💬 Why Pet Parents Love Us: We’re not just pet sitters, we’re pet lovers. We take pride in creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment that helps your pet feel at home while you’re away. We send daily updates and photos, follow your care instructions closely, and treat your pet like family. Our clients appreciate our communication, flexibility, and dedication. Many return again and again! 🐶 For Dog Parents: 🏡 Home & Yard Setup: • Large fully fenced backyard for exercise, play, and sunbathing. • Three rooms in the house, separated with gates for comfort and safety. • Indoor and outdoor security cameras for peace of mind. • Dogs are crated when we step away from the house to ensure everyone stays safe. If your pup isn’t crate-trained, let us know and we’ll make special arrangements. • We accept multiple bookings, so your dog may have playmates during their stay. If your dog needs solo accommodations or doesn’t get along with others, just let us know in advance. • Please ensure your dog arrives clean for their stay. Note: Unfortunately I cannot accept boarding bookings for unneutered male dogs. I would be happy to do house visits instead. 🌙 Nighttime Routine: We stick to your dog’s usual bedtime habits, whether that means a crate, a special blanket, or cuddling on the couch. Just let us know what helps your pup feel secure at night! 🐾 Behavioral Support: We’re experienced with shy, anxious, or high energy dogs and can accommodate special routines or extra space if needed. Communication is key, let us know your dog’s quirks and we’ll take care of the rest. 🐕 Resident Dogs: • Archer and Xeena are playful and full of energy, great for social dogs! • Koda is sweet and mellow, she prefers human company and usually hangs out in our bedroom. All three are medium sized, dog and cat friendly, and well socialized. 🐱 Resident Cats: • Zuko is our playful kitten who acts more like a dog. • Calypso prefers her independence and lounges in her cat tree, but she’s dog aware and unbothered. If your dog isn’t cat friendly, we’re happy to keep our cats in a separate area of the home. 🚗 Pickup & Drop off: Need help with transportation? We offer pickup and drop off services for your convenience! 📌 Please be sure to add this option to your booking request before confirming so it’s included in your quote. 🕐 Schedule & Availability: • I work on Ft.

Omgosh, Hailey is an Amazing Rover!!!! We are traveling food vendors, and Hailey was so accommodating with our crazy schedule, and even as our promoter change the schedule on us, we reached out to Haily 🐶 to see if she could change her hours to walk our Riley, and she was very willing and very accommodating.

About: I have been trusted a magnitude of time to support families on trips watching their pets daily. I sent pictures and updates when I am there watching pets. Being in the military, I have days where I can come home early and I am there to support my pets needs and I most of the time give my dog a full of attention I make sure that their pets feel loved that they go on multiple walks a day to get out of the house and stretch out. I also make sure that they are well fed and hydrated.

Wow. I can’t say enough good things about BriAna & Tyler. This was my first time using the Rover app and I lucked out finding BriAna & Tyler. They were very professional, wonderful communicators and great with my 8 month old golden puppy. The notes and photos they shared after each visit with my pup gave me great peace of mind that she was being well cared for. I would not hesitate to recommend them and will certainly rebook them for the next time we need help with my golden retriever.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Fayetteville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Fayetteville on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 1,036 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fayetteville. 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 Fayetteville. 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 Fayetteville.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Fayetteville. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
