About: I’ve kept my grand dogs for years and have stayed overnight for several friends on multiple occasions . I have references that talk and bark 😁 I am retired so my schedule is very flexible. I can stay overnight and am usually available on weekends with advance notice. I love snuggles! I ask for an idea of what their day is like and try to follow it as much as possible. I have kept all ages and don’t mind giving medicine or potty training. I live going on walks also!

About: Hi! My name is Liza, and I've been providing loving, reliable pet care for over 8 years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I'm passionate about giving them the care, attention, and respect they deserve. I earned my degree in Animal Sciences and worked at a veterinary hospital for 3 years, where I gained valuable hands-on experience with animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it's walking dogs, feeding, administering medication, or providing companionship, I bring both professional training and heartfelt compassion to every pet I care for. I'm comfortable with pets that have special needs or require specific routines, and I'm always happy to provide updates, photos, and reassurance while you're away. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved in your absence. Let me know how I can help make your life easier and your pet's life happier! Im currently available whatever time and whatever day you might need! I’d love to fill my recent free time with hanging out with your animals! I don’t plan on hosting any animals at my home. However I could do drop ins to check on your pets if needed! I am very reliable so you can count on me to do a great job.

“So attentive to my puppy’s needs. We had an hour long walk scheduled, but it was a chilly day. When my pup started shaking, she warmed him up and took him home to play inside for the remainder of our appt. I love that she was attentive to him! I would highly recommend Kristen!”

About: I’m 31 years old, a single mom, and the owner of Daisy’s Creative Cuts & Colors LLC, as well as a REALTOR and photography business owner. I have a genuine love for animals, and because I spend a lot of time at home, I’m able to be with them almost all of the time. I can groom the dogs in my care so they go home fresh and clean, and I also work on light training while they’re with me. This is my career, and I take great pride in the work I do. I’m willing to care for dogs that others may turn away, because I truly believe dogs are incredibly intelligent and intuitive animals. I see dogs and cats as very special, and I treat every fur baby as if they were my own. If you choose me to care for your pet, you won’t regret it. I also love meeting my dogs’ families, I’ve met some amazing people and formed long-term friendships through this journey. I spend plenty of time with my animals I keep since I work from home a lot. I update you on how they are through the day as well. I have a fenced in yard. We will be outside most of the time. We go for walks and to the park. I also send pictures everyday so you can feel closer to your fur babies.

About: Hi!! I have a special love of animals!! I have a small, 4 pound dog that is actually a certified service animal. He was certified after losing my 3 month old son on Thanksgiving night 2016!! He is very very well trained and gets along with others. I will love your fur baby like my own! I can accommodate and gladly honor any special needs or requests to make your pet as happy and comfortable as possible!! The care and love that I can give your pet is definitely from my heart! Give me a chance to give your pet a great day everyday that you are away or need drop in visits or dog walks. Whether you are away for a week, a day, or just an average work day, I would love to have the opportunity to care for your baby!! I never ever watch more than one family’s pets at one time! When you entrust me to care for your pets your pets are my #1 priority. When you decide to allow me to take care of your pet(s), I do everything possible to ensure that they maintain their normal daily routine. I would like for you to know that although I do have 2 wonderful small fur babes of my own, I never bring them along when I take care of your babies! I believe that your pets deserve 100% of my care and attention!! I do not want your babies to be uncomfortable in their own environment by bringing my dogs into unfamiliar territory! I do prefer house sitting in order to keep your pets in their normal routine as much as possible!

About: I’ve cared for birds, chickens, ducks, and dogs—there’s nothing I can’t handle! I’ve wanted to be a vet since Kindergarten, and pet sitting is the closest I’ve gotten so far. I am a college student so I might be out of your house for 2 hours or so but I’ll always let you know. I’m always available to watch the babies. I make sure to take the dogs out frequently and mostly love on the pups if I can’t cuddle your dog/dogs please don’t book me.

“Emerald is great!! She has been taking care of my dog for almost 8 months now. She is always available last minute and she is flexible with her schedule. She always sends me ADORABLE pictures of him when she visits. I love that she plays and interacts with him too.

About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was in high school, now going into year 7 of pet sitting. My unwavering dedication to personalized care for each pet is what I always focus on. I understand that each pet is unique, with its own needs and quirks, and I try and go the extra mile to tailor my services to meet those individual requirements I currently work in person 3 days out the week (MWF) as a college professor at AAMU but I make sure you pet’s needs are my first priority. From waking up early to give them attention & exercise, sharing my lunch break with your furry friend to take a walk and have a bathroom break, to helping me take breaks during my work hours for us to both stretch and go for a walk. Having constant communication with the owner & providing regular updates through messages, photos, or videos. Being prepared for any emergency by having a plan and knowing I need to bring your furry friend if an emergency may happen. Lastly, ensuring the safety within the home by removing anything that may be hazardous and keeping your furry friend in their designated area when needed to avoid any mishaps.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. From having turtles, cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish over the years I’ve learned so much about so many different animals! every animal is different just like humans so i strive to make sure they are comfortable with me and trust me how i am with them ! Many friends and family have asked me to watch or take care of their 4 legged babies, so i hope to keep doing it with yalls ! i’m currently working part-time, so that leaves me free from 1pm to anytime. My off days are Wednesday and Fridays, they don’t change! I’m willing to walk, sit, let them out to potty, just run to go check on them, and if they need some extra loving i’m there! Of course if you need anything else i’m here and very flexible! I live in an apartment, so i wouldn’t accept nightly stays at my place, but i’m more than capable over staying at yours ! i know most of the time animals feel more comfortable and safe in their own homes ! I do have a 80 pound dog who i take out 5-6 times a day when i get home, i take him out to the dog area and play with him for hours so he can get some sunshine on him, he’s crate and potty trained, and he LOVES to be cuddled up on anyone !

About: Hi there! I’ve been a proud pet parent for years and have loved every minute of it—from puppy zoomies to kitten cuddles. I’ve raised my own pets since they were little and know just how much love (and treats!) it takes to keep them happy and healthy. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, caring for both dogs and cats of all personalities and sizes. Whether your fur baby loves long walks, playtime, or just a cozy spot to nap, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while you’re away! I am a mom to two young children and sometimes need to bring them with me. I offer flexible pet-sitting services with availability throughout the entire week, including weekends. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits at any time of day, whether your pet needs early morning care, midday check-ins, or evening attention. My schedule is designed to accommodate a variety of routines, so you can feel confident that your pet will receive consistent, reliable care whenever it’s needed. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your furry family member is safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m gentle, attentive, and always tuned in to your pet’s unique needs—whether that means extra snuggles, a calm presence, or sticking closely to their daily routine. I’m happy to follow any special care instructions you provide, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and cute photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in loving hands

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hobbs Island

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Hobbs Island is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $2 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 582 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hobbs Island. 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 Hobbs Island. 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 Hobbs Island 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 Hobbs Island. On Rover:

  • 89% 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.
