“Megan has been our primary dog walker for about a year and has been fantastic! Our dog loves her and she’s be incredibly flexible with our busy schedule. Couldn’t recommend more.”
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals. In my house we had two dogs, a cat, a fish, two birds, and a lizard all at once. i took care of all of them and loved it :) I’m new to the area and have a part time job. i had to leave my dog with my family back home and am really missing that bond, I am very available to pet sit or even just take them on walks. My dog always slept in her crate because it was her safe space. I love to take dogs outside and let them run around and be happy, but i am also comfortable with having them inside and following any rules you may have.
“Josh was available to take care of my dogs at the last minute and was very professional. He came to walk them twice during the day while I was out of town and made sure they were fed and had plenty of water. I will definitely ask Josh for his help in the future!”
About: Hi pet parents!! My name is Abby and I started my Rover business because I absolutely adore animals! I’ve never met a dog or cat that I didn’t fall in love with 😆 I have two kitties of my own, Taco and Seven, who I love so much! I don’t have my own doggo (yet lol), but that leaves me plenty of time to come take care of your pup or kitty! I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible. My husband often comes with me to Rover meetings, so your animals get two sitters for the price of one! We love to play fetch, and give so many pets! I always send lots of pictures and updates, as I know that is what I’d want for my own kitties. If you need a sitter, please reach out and we can set up a meeting! Looking forward to meeting your sweet babies! 🐾 I work remotely, so I have time to stop by throughout the day to feed and play with your dog or cat. I also get off of work at 4, so after that I’m available to stay longer. If you’re comfortable with me working at your home, I could stay with your pet as long as you’d like! I will make sure to provide your pet with the best care possible. This includes plenty of pets, play time, feedings, treats, and whatever else I can do to make your pet comfortable!

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 Goldsboro. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.

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.
