Ansley and our dog get along so well. Our dog is very stubborn and doesn’t like to walk without us. Ansley was able to talk a full walk with her on day 2! Now our dog is so excited to see her!

Danielle is amazing. My dog seems to love her! She is very understanding with my nervous dog. She gives me a full run down after each walk and responds quickly with any questions I have.

About: I am a huge dog person, my aunt is a veterinary technician, and since I was a child, I went to work with her every weekend to assist her with cleaning the kennels, sitting with the dogs the veterinary clinic owned. Observing the animals behavior. I’ve owned a dog since I was five years old. Dogs have ALWAYS been a passion of mine. Anytime I see one out and about, I always ask if I can pet it or Love on it. I currently have an American Staffordshire Terrier named Kira Bella, I’ve owned her for four years. She is an ex show dog. She’s my child. I treat her no differently than a human would treat their own child. So I know the importance of finding the right person to care for your dog or cat. I am very picky about who watches my girl so I understand, just know that your fur baby is in good hands with me and I will treat them like they are my own fur baby. I have several clients that have booked with me that loved the service I’ve provided for them. I do require a meet and greet beforehand to make sure we are compatible, if we vibe well together then I will book you in right away! I own my own business so I make my own hours, I’ll have plenty of time to care for your babies as my work is very flexible. I will treat your fur baby like they are my own, if they are allowed on the furniture, I will cuddle with them. If they need to be crated , I have no problem crating them. If they need medication I have no problem giving it to your baby. I was raised with an aunt that is a veterinary technician so I spent a lot of time at the vet clinic with her learning how to handle animals and give them medication.

I’m experienced with senior pets, medication administration, anxious animals, kittens, puppies, cats. I’m attentive, patient, and detail-oriented, and I always treat pets like family.

If you message me about pricing and scheduling and letting me know what exactly you need, I will make sure to make it work. I treat the animals that come into my home like my pets, and I treat the animals. I take care and owners home like it is mine, so you can be reassured that everything will be taken care of and you can be at ease when you do boarding in your own home with me.

About: Experience includes growing up with a mini farm to raising sugar gliders in college and now having my two yorkiepoo fur babies for the last 6 years. My toddler son and I have been doing drop in visits for our neighbors dogs for a couple years now and really enjoy the cuddles and play time! I’m a SAHM so my schedule is pretty open 7 days a week for drop by visits to include walks, potty breaks and play time. Having an open schedule makes it easy to pop over to your home to let your furry loved ones out to stretch their legs, be fed, play some ball, get tummy rubs or for walks. My two small sons are always with me but one spends most of his day snoozing while my 2 year old toddler would love nothing more than to throw the ball 100 or more times for your furry friend.

About: Running and being outdoors is a passion and taking your pet along with me for some exercise would be delightful and beneficial for your pet. I have experience in animal training and cater to the individual needs of animals wether it be physical or emotional. I'm very attentive and careful especially when it comes to your beloved furbabies. I'm not scared of animals and most seem to love me except that one chihuahua that bit me when I was giving him a treat haha. I understand each furbaby is different and will do my best to cater to them as individuals. I am also knowledgeable in animal first aid and know all the nearest hospitals if an emergency were to arise. I am most familiar with the fort benning area. Your pets trust me and you should to!

About: I’ve been asked to pet sit for a variety of pets over the years. Anywhere from cats and dogs to bearded dragons and horses! I’m a quick learner and can adapt just as fast to match whatever needs are required. I also own two mixed dogs and an orange tabby cat myself. I am a newly wed who recently moved into town and am still getting settled. Until I get connected with my work, I have a TON of free time! I’d love to get to be surrounded by fur babies as much as possible! I love to let the critters set the pace when getting to know me. I believe there needs to be an established bond of trust before anything else. And I LOVE to love on them once they let me! I can never get enough pets and snuggles! I want them to feel as though I’m a friend and family member rather than a stranger. And the same goes for their human parents too! I love to connect with my clientele and keep them updated as much as possible to ensure they feel confident that their babies are taken care of :)

I put priorities first and always look out for the well being of your furry family members. I am willing to work last minute on jobs if needed and I will do all I can to make sure you and your babies are happy and healthy!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Fortson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Fortson on Rover is $18.87 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 593 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fortson. 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 Fortson. 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 Fortson.

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 Fortson. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
