“Autumn was an amazing help when I was traveling for work. She was prompt and communicative, and even helped clean up a bit when the puppy chewed up the couch. I would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had animals all of my life. From hamsters, cats, dogs (daschund to Great Danes), to our chickens! I’m a stay at home momma so I’m available to take care of your fur babies and welcome them in to my home with care at all times! I’m home a majority of all days! After waking up, I take my kiddos to school and I go to the gym where I teach senior classes for 45-75 minutes a day Monday through Friday. After I will come back home. I like to spend my time outside in the yard. My yard is not fenced in, we have 40 acres and a pond as well that my heeler swims in but daschund wouldn’t step foot in. I do have two crates I have in my home, as well as a outdoor kennel. We are located on a dead end road and only two other houses are located out here so not much traffic!
“Lisa is perfect ! On time. My two dogs ( Great Pyrenees and golden retriever) love her and respond to her. She knows how to calm my eager, energetic golden down so she can walk and not pull.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. In college, my friends and professors knew to trust me with their pets, whether walking, feeding, or boarding. Currently, I have two dogs that are trained to follow commands and walk off-leash. So, whatever the service, I’m here to help! I am fortunate to have an extremely flexible work schedule, so I am able to accommodate most of your pet’s needs—whatever the time or day! Safety and trust are paramount. I always follow directions and communicate often to ensure the best care for your four-legged friend. I am currently working a hybrid job that allows me to be very flexible to accommodate not only your schedule, but your pet’s schedule as well. I live in a house with a fenced-in backyard to ensure that every pet is safe and out of harm’s way. I have two dogs that love to make new friends!
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was 10, I’ve been asked by many friends and family to watch their dogs while gone I’m currently a full time college student, with classes Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. I am also full time at a fast food job just trying to make some extra money doing something I love! I treat every animal like their my own. I love animals with a passion. They will be loved and taken care of and much more!
About: I have owned animals since I was a small child, now grown I have a house full of pets that I call my own. I often pet sit for friends and family. Animals need to feel safe and cared and I will strive to bring those to your home each visit. I have experience across the spectrum of animals and all stages of life from needy pups to the "grumpy" ole men and woman. I also have experience providing oral medications. I'm currently available for pet care services throughout the day. I am available 7 am - 3:30 pm Monday - Thursday, 9 am - 10 pm Friday - Sunday. I will not be providing boarding services in my home but I am able to visit your home as much as necessary to take care of your pets, including in home visits. I have 3 kids and a husband who may assist in the visits but will never be the primary care giver to the animals. My kids have taken after me and love helping and meeting new animals. If you would not like the extra help please let me know and I will not bring them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 155 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Garner. 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 Garner. 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 Garner 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 Garner. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
