About: Hello! My name is Ayana, and I’m 25 years old. I have a passion for working with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently work professionally in a dog daycare/boarding environment, where I spend my days caring for dogs in group play settings, monitoring behavior, supporting enrichment activities, and making sure every pup stays safe and has fun! I’ve had animals by my side for as long as I can remember and currently have a kitten of my own who completely runs the household. I also have a senior cat who still lives with my mom and will forever be my first baby. Through both personal and professional experience, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after your pets. At this time, I’m offering dog walks and drop-in visits. My work schedule can vary week to week, so I keep my Rover calendar updated regularly to reflect my availability. I can’t wait to meet your pets, learn all their little quirks and personalities, and give them lots of love and attention while you’re away! I plan on providing for your pet as if they were my own while still following all your wants and needs. I will make sure to send pictures and updates!

About: I've been caring for dogs since 2014, when my family welcomed our own dog into our home. Because he was reactive around other dogs, I gained firsthand experience with consistent training, patience, and understanding canine behavior. Through structured training and positive reinforcement, I watched him become much calmer and more confident around other dogs, which taught me the importance of tailoring care to each dog's unique personality and needs. I've also fostered a puppy, giving me experience with younger dogs and the extra attention, playtime, and consistency they require. I love keeping dogs active by taking them on long walks and hikes, exploring new trails and neighborhoods while making sure they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. Whether your dog enjoys an adventure outdoors or prefers a slower-paced stroll, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while they're with me. I am currently a graduate student at Duke University, so I will have flexible time for your pup's needs! I am free all day on weekends, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday after 12pm, Thursday after 1:30pm. I am available to walk dogs during the day and typically enjoy local hikes around Eno State park. Your dog's safety is my absolute priority. During walks, I always keep dogs securely leashed unless we're in a designated off-leash area with the owner's permission. Since I have experience with reactive dogs, I stay alert of our surroundings and will avoid situations that may be stressful for dogs. When caring for pets at your home, my rule is to treat your home and dog as I would treat mine. This includes following feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and respecting house guidelines. I also make sure pets have plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and bathroom breaks. As an attentive dog owner myself, I understand the need for peace of mind while you're away. I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed about how your pet is doing. My intention is to make sure your pup is happy, safe, and healthy while you are apart.

“Gina walked our dog Barley for an hour every day while we were at work. She sent plenty of pictures and videos. We could tell Barley enjoyed his walks because when we got home from work, he was calm and not antsy. We would highly recommend Gina and looking forward to working with her again in the future!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, from dogs and cats to even baby ducks. I’ve been pet sitting for years and love making animals feel at home. I work and study from home, so pets fit perfectly into my day. I plan walks, meals, and playtime around my schedule to give them full attention. I care for every pet like my own. I keep their environment calm, clean, and safe, follow their schedule, and make sure they always feel loved abd secure.

About: I’ve been a pet mom for over 25 years while raising my five children. Since losing my loyal companion 2 years ago and empty nesting, I am ready to shower love and care to your beloved pet. There’s nothing like the unconditional love of a pet and I can’t wait to meet your furry companion! I am currently a companion to my 90 year old mother and am home every day. I can easily incorporate care for your pet into our very flexible schedule. I can offer walks, play and companionship to your pet and visits to dog parks if they like to play with other dogs.

About: Hey dog pawmily! I’m Hadassah, Hade for short! I’ve been caring for animals since I was a child. As a child, we went through experiences with a wide variety of pets including multiple dogs, four cats, a bunny, fish, and three parakeets. Caring for so many different animals has truly taught me patience, responsibility, and truly how to meet each pet’s unique needs. Currently, I have and take care of my dog, Diogee, who is a 3 year old Maltese-Shitzu mix and enjoys meeting new friends. Having my dog, Diogee, by my side throughout my transition as a transfer student in my senior year at UNC chapel hill has shown me just how important pets are to our lives. Hopefully your dog will either have the opportunity to meet/walk/play with me (yay!) or stay in my safe HOA home located in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with great walking areas and a new dog park currently being built nearby. I, Hadassah, can assure you that when your dog is cared for by me, they’ll be treated with the same care and patience that I give my own. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I care for my own dog, Diogee, every day. 🐶 I'm available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and boarding depending on availability. In my home, pets will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh cool water, meals according to their schedule, and a safe, pet-friendly environment. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routine.

About: I've always enjoyed taking care of animals all of my life. While not being able to own too many myself, I have always opted to taking care of other's pets, whether it be dogs, cats, or something else. I am always happy to see/find new experiences, and am up to the challenge for anything new! I'm taking online classes currently, so my schedule is open after 8AM! If needed slightly earlier, I will try my best to compensate for such a need, as my schedule is very flexible. I live in a townhouse, so I do not have a fenced yard or any of the sort, however, I can provide a quality experience with your pets in attention and exercise!

About: I’ve pet sat my friends animals, and they’ve had so many! Senior dogs that have accidents and have behavioral issues. Exotic pets, of many kids. Every morning, I fill the cat and water bowl in my room, weekly I clean the bowls. For my dogs, whenever my parents don’t feed them cause they are out, I feed them and fill their water. I brush their coats, and try to give them baths every few weeks or so! However the pet parents would like, but I care for what is best for their health. I understand each pet is different and needs different things. I can bathe the animals depending on behavior, my right leg doesn't haven't as much feeling since surgery and cant handle a lot of big pressure.

About: Hey there! I have a friendly pit mix. I’m super active and love spending time with dogs and going hiking. I am in school to become a dog trainer. I have a few tricks up my sleeve. If you need to brush up on some training, I will do so and follow your instructions. I also love working with reactive/challenging dogs. Seeing the moment they understand what they are supposed to do is amazing and so rewarding. I love all types of animals and look forward to spending time with your pet(s) I am available full time but need to come and go to care for my own dog. I typically wake up pretty early and start my mornings with a long walk. I will follow all instructions and routines. If your dog likes to go on hikes or trips to the park, I’m all for it :) as for cats, lots of play if they are active kitties or just chill on the couch and hang out :)

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 Heather Glen. 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 Heather Glen 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 .

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
