Dog Walking Forest

“An excellent walker, doesn't mind that the dog walks come with an additional (injured) human, extra helpful and overall a great experience for both me and Loki 10/10 would recommend”

“Abigail is wonderful! This was my first time with Rover, and she made it easy. She came over for a meet and greet, sent me updates, and took great care of my crazy babies.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine my life without them! 🐶 I currently have two dogs who had to stay with my father in Ukraine because of the situation there and I miss them very much. Spending time with dogs here helps me feel calm and happy — for me, this is more about companionship and love than money. Because of that, I prefer to care for one dog at a time and give them my full attention. I’m attentive, gentle, and very mindful of dogs’ emotions and comfort. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just quiet company, I make sure your dog feels safe and loved 💛 I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility and plenty of time to focus on pet care. I’m easily adjusting my day to a dog’s routine and needs. I’m available on weekdays and weekends. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep a calm and clean environment, and avoid overcrowding. I prefer a peaceful setting where your dog feels secure, relaxed, and truly cared for at all times.

“So professional & a great communicator! Did an amazing job & sent so many photos of my pups. I’d give her more than 5 stars if it were an option!”

“Arabella was fantastic with my fur babies. Super reliable, communicated well, and really appreciated how affectionate she was to all of my fur babies. Definitely recommend.”

About: I have always loved being around animals, I started walking dogs when I was 11 around my neighborhood and I have been pet sitting since I was 14 so I’ve had a lot of experience pet sitting/walking dogs! I currently walk dogs Monday through Friday but I am always looking for more🙌🏻 I do online college so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would be happy to help anytime, I only need a little heads up!🫶🏻 I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, walks, or playtime—to keep them happy and relaxed. I treat every pet and home with respect, keeping everything clean and secure. I also love sending picture updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands while you’re away! 😊

“Ariane is amazing and wonderful with my pups!”

“Laura has been wonderful with walking my rather high maintenance pups. I don't know how I would have made it through the holidays without her help. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and flexible. She always takes the time to show my babies special love and affection and that has meant the world to me. Thank you Laura!”

About: I’ve grown to LOVE walking/running with my dogs. Trained my pup Ozzy from not being able to walk down the street (as he was afraid of cars) to walking about 5 miles a day. I find the exercise helps him perform better with all other tasks and training behaviors. I’ve used running and walking dogs as an outlet to help me and the dogs maintain good health and habits! Here to spread the love. I have two very well behaved dogs with a back yard with room to play. I incorporate routine drills with positive reinforced treats, pets, and encouragement to keep them occupied with good habits in a good environment.

About: I’ve taken care of dog ever since I was a little boy! My own, friends and neighbors animals as well to keep them safe. Also I can take care of some little pets I’m currently in school and I have free time in the afternoon most days. I’m just looking to make some extra money around town and hopefully walk your lovely dog! I make sure I keep a good eye on them the whole time I’m there and make sure nothing is wrong or out the norm.

About: While I am newer to Rover, I have experience caring for pets for family, friends, and professors and have always loved animals. As a Certified Athletic Trainer, I am dependable, attentive, active, and committed to providing safe, compassionate care. With my active lifestyle as a collegiate swimmer for five years and my caring nature, I will make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you are away! Prior to starting my job at Wake Forest University, I am pretty much free until July and have a very flexible schedule! Outside of working out and spending time with my boyfriend, I can easily work around your schedule and give your pet the attention, care, and activity they deserve. I understand how important consistency is for pets, therefore following feeding schedules, walking routines instructions, and any specific care requests closely is important to me! I also value communication and love providing regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and confident while you are away!

“Mia is reliable and communicative. She paid attention to all my requests and took great care of Frankie!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was in preschool. My family has always had lots of pets throughout the house all through my childhood! I have lots of experience in giving baths, medicine, lots of cuddles and care! I will be sending plenty of pictures so you can see what your pet is up to at all times! I am currently working for myself while also working from home. This gives me all the time in the world to be just as attentive as you would be to your fur baby! I currently live in a nice neighborhood with plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks and open space for walks/jogs. My house is large enough to keep small dogs and larger dogs separated to ensure there are no accidents.

About: As someone who was raised on a fully functioning farm, animal husbandry has been a part of my daily routine since I could walk! I have experience with almost every domestic animal under the sun, but dogs and cats have always been very personal to me. I worked at doggie daycares/boarding facilities for 3 years, and am an assistant at a competitive showing kennel. I attended CATCH canine trainers academy as well. I would love to extend my love for pets to you and your fur family by caring for them as I would my own. I work part time at a private kennel, but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Caring for dogs has been my full time job for 4 years! Working with dogs as much as I have, I feel like I have seen it all! I care deeply about the health, safety, and mental well-being of your dog, and will do my best to give them an amazing time while you are away.

About: I don’t just care for your pets, I strive to make them see me as part of the family! Also love to clean, so you know you will return to your house with it being just as clean as you left it. Ample training with young pups as well as caring for older animals. I work a job where I make my own hours, so I can fit whatever requirements into my schedule. No need to worry about long stretches without your loved one being checked on! Multiple walks are given each day (depending on their needs), with the option to run with them if they are high-energy dogs. All for the cuddles and playing inside for those that need either or both instead!

About: I have taken care of all size dogs, I love all animals so I am not afraid of them and know that they need to gain trust. I am a nursing student at the University of Lynchburg, I would be honored to take care of your fur baby! Able to take last minute or short notice requests if need be. Able to walk them, check on them, give them medicine if needed. I love to play with them and fulfill the basic needs the owner has requested.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a teacher, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to routines and details. I know how important consistency is, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I look after. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and cuddle, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I know leaving your pet with someone else takes trust, and I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing reliable, loving care and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay or visit. I’m currently on summer break, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. During the school year, my availability is typically in the mornings, evenings, weekends, and school breaks. I’ll always communicate my schedule clearly and do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

“Jaxon was so excited to walk with Emily. She arrived early, calming him down like a dog whisperer. Jaxon was very happy! I definitely will use Emily H again in the near future.”
