About: As a fur mom to two, I know that it is a huge relief to find someone to love your pets the way that you would. Let me be that person! Along with taking care of my own dogs and multiple family pets, I also have previous experience working at a vet as a kennel tech. Want to include your pet in your wedding day? I can help with that too! I have five years of experience in the wedding industry and have helped manage pets during the ceremony and photos. Let me handle your furry family members while you enjoy your day! I currently work a remote job with a flexible schedule which allows for me to easily fit in drop in visits or walks throughout the day. I know that each pet requires their own form of love and attention. I will take the time to get to know your pet, what they like and don't like, and make sure that everything is handled while they are in my care. It is very important to me to build a bond with your pet so that you both feel comfortable.

About: Hey Ya'll! My name is Kim, I recently moved to Troutman, NC from Oklahoma! I am originally from the East Coast and have a German Shepherd & Lab Mix. I have lived all over and been through my fair share of dog boarding and know how stressful it can be. I work from home and have been looking to reasons to get out of the house- so I figured, why not help you....because I know how stressful finding a pet sitter can be! I've previously fostered a couple dogs but found that to be a little too emotional towards the end. My schedule is completely flexible and I would love to help give your pets the best care while you are away! I currently work from home so my schedule is completely flexible to fit your needs! I am looking for the extra income due to life these days and I love pets....so it's a win win 😊 I have a fenced in yard and multiple crates so make your pets feel as comfortable as possible! I will take care of your home as I do mine!

About: Hi! I have grown up with pets my whole life. I have cared for labs and dachshunds to birds and hamster so I am well versed in interaction and first aid. I can also care for reptiles, amphibians and insects/bugs as I have proper training in labs and rehab centers. I am currently going to school for zoology and black world studies and have worked two years as a zoology and lab tech assistant. So you can be assured you animal is in good care. I am versed in behavioral activites, nutrition, training, and age grouped interactions between animals and humans as well as many of the signs for common sicknesses and fatigues within breeds. I love being outdoors and playing games in order to give the animals the ability to express their energy in an appropriate manner. You animal will be in great hands. I also make usually make pet friendly treats if I have advanced notice! I am currently self employed so my schedule works around me. Animal care always comes first, after all a steady schedule makes for a happy pet I have two small dogs one is a baby one is an old man but they get along great and play like puppies. They are friendly and would love to keep your fur baby company. However, if your dog is not up for company for any reason there is a nice sized crate in which the animals that reside here or your own (which ever you are more comfortable with) can reside it. I love to play, study mannerisms and behaviors, I like toys that make their brains work so they feel fulfilled and tired after a good session of play. Walks, breaks and water are a good way to bond and pass the time. Cuddle bugs are always welcome as well. Nail trimming and grooming available if needed.

About: Hi! I’m a 22-year-old dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have hands-on experience caring for my sister’s dog for about 2 years, and for 6 months consistently, I was his main caregiver after she moved out of state. During that time, I handled his everyday care, including feeding, walks, playtime, and giving him plenty of attention and love. That experience made me realize how much I enjoy taking care of dogs and how responsible I can be when someone is trusting me with their pet. I’m also used to taking care of my friends’ dogs, so I’m comfortable around different personalities and energy levels. I’m not a professional dog trainer or veterinarian, but I do have real-life experience, I’m dependable, attentive, and I’ll treat your dog with the same care I would give my own. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel stressful, so I want you to feel confident knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I’m happy to keep you updated with pictures and messages while you’re away, and I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles. 🐾💗 I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup! I’m currently studying real estate , so my flexible schedule allows me to give your adorable furry friend plenty of time, attention, love, and care! 🐾❤️ I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised while I’m in their home. I’ll follow their normal routine, keep doors secure, and give them plenty of attention and care. I’ll also treat your home respectfully and communicate with you if anything comes up.

Sherrills Ford, NC, 28673

About: Retired registered nurse, knows CPR and can administer meds. I love all pets, but can only board small pets in my home. If boarding in my home I prefer house trained and good with other small dogs. Can work with your pet on house training, crate training, and basic commands. I have never met a cat or dog I did not like and that did not like me in return. I would love to get to know you and your fur prince or princess. I can travel up to 20 miles, after that I need to charge more to compensate for gas. In the midst of training? I can help, I reward with praise and can reinforce your commands. I can not board cats, my old gal will not allow it. I am retired and other than occasional trips can modify my schedule to meet your pets needs. If your dog likes the dog park we are happy to go for a ride there. I have a fenced yard and 2 littles, one loves to play, the other is an observer. There is no way the dogs can get out of the yard.

About: Caring for children has been my career for over 15 years. Working in education, I know that trust isn't given, its earned through consistency, communication and genuine care. While my professional background is with children, the same qualities I bring to families everyday are exactly what I'll bring to your dog: patience, attention to detail and a calm caring presence. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy dog and have complete peace of mind knowing they were treated like one of my own. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I’ll always be upfront about my availability and make sure I can fully commit before accepting a booking. When your dog is in my care, they’ll have my full attention, plenty of affection, and dependable care every step of the way. ***Please note that on Fridays, my availability begins at 7:00 PM. I know that trusting someone with your dog is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. Whether your dog is staying in my home or joining me for a walk, their safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep routines as consistent as possible, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in caring, dependable hands. My goal is to create a calm, welcoming environment where your dog feels loved, secure, and right at home. No other pets in the home. Non-smoking home. Plenty of space for walks and play. Only one family’s dog(s) at a time

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and throughout college I cared for a wide variety of breeds (i.e doodles, bull dogs, pitbulls,etc), from boarding pets in my own home to drop-in check-ups. I’m comfortable with dogs of all energy levels and ages, with experience caring for pets ages 2 to 8 and have administered medicine via eye drops & orally. In my free time, I spend time at the SPCA playing with and socializing animals. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to keeping your pet happy, safe, and on their normal routine while you’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible, giving me wide availability throughout the day, including mornings, midday, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to give your pet consistent, unhurried care and accommodate last-minute requests. If my availability changes in the future, I’ll communicate early and make sure any existing commitments are fully covered. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Before any service, I’m happy to schedule a meet and greet so your pet can get comfortable with me and I can learn their routine, personality, and any special needs. In your home, I follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I’ll keep food, water, and litter or potty areas clean, and I’m comfortable giving medications as directed. On walks, I always use a secure leash, check that collars and harnesses fit properly, and stay alert around traffic, wildlife, and other dogs. I will send photos and text updates after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for

About: I used to work in a Petshotel taking care of dogs and cats. I have a passion for making animals happy and providing them the the proper care they need. I can administer medications in a variety of ways and have been able to monitor multiple dogs at once during playtimes. I have had 10 dogs in my lifetime, and I can't wait to meet even more. I ask that I meet every pet before hand to make sure we will be a good fit before providing services. I recently graduated with my masters, so I am on the hunt for a full time job. Currently my availability is fully open, but is subject to change later. I had dog-sat many of times before and am extremely respectful of other's property and how they choose to take care of their pet. I like to send pictures of people's pets to them while they are away so they can relax knowing they are in good care.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your dog loves long walks, hiking, playing fetch, or just relaxing with company, I’m happy to match their energy and routine. As someone who is very active, I enjoy giving high-energy dogs the exercise and attention they need, but I’m just as comfortable caring for senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra patience. I provide dependable drop-in visits, walks, overnight sitting, feeding, medication if needed, lots of affection, and regular photo updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe. I treat every dog like they’re my own because I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule because I have a flexible work routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends when needed. I enjoy staying active, so long walks, outdoor adventures, and playtime are some of my favorite parts of caring for dogs. I’ll always do my best to work around your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll follow their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I’ll treat them like family while respecting your home as if it were my own. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands.

About: My full time job allows for flexibility during the work day and allows me to work anywhere with wifi.

If I am available, I would love to set up a meet and greet to see if I would be a good fit! I am also insured! I work a flexible 9-5 and can drop in to walk or spend additional time caring for your animal(s) because of the flexibility! I wake up early as well! I treat each home like I am a true guest there and treat it and the animals if they were my own. I am very respectful of the rules and furniture.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hickory Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,871 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hickory Hills. 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 Hickory Hills. 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 , 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 Hickory Hills 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hickory Hills. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
