“Natalie had an instant bond with Pebbles and Pebbles with her. Let me say that is rare for Pebbles she didn’t even bark when Natalie came in. Pebbles is not a barker unless it’s someone she doesn’t know. But that wasn’t the case with Natalie. Natalie is very friendly and outgoing and you can tell she has a love for animals.”

About: I have lifelong experience caring for both dogs and cats, including senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with medical needs. I provide patient, attentive, and loving care while making sure each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personalities are respected. I treat every pet like family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Currently doing remote college so I’m available for dog & cat house sitting during the days and nights Friday-Monday. I am available for dog walking and drop in visits any day of the week! I would love to hangout with and take care of your babies! 🥰 My priority is maintaining your pet's normal routine in the comfort of their own environment while ensuring your home remains secure and respected. I follow your exact feeding, medication, and bedtime schedules to keep your babies anxiety at zero while you are away. I treat your space with the utmost respect. I will keep your home clean, bring in the mail, water plants, and ensure all doors and windows stay securely locked. I also ensure visits and walks are never rushed. I focus on high-quality engagement, whether that means an energetic neighborhood walk with plenty of sniffing and belly rubs.

I live along with my mom so your pet will be supervised all hours of the day. I do not do boarding due to me living at a college dorm. Dropping in on a clients home I will be very careful of my surroundings and kindly approach your pet with grace and patience.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and commitment to putting in each pets need first. I am punctual, organized, and reliable, ensuring pets receive consistent care and attention. Having cared for many pets, I provide not only affection but also structure and safety so your pets feel happy and secure. As a student who is currently working towards their masters in school counseling, pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I enjoy being outside and making sure dogs get the walks, exercise, and attention they need. Caring for pets not only keeps me active but also allows me to provide consistent, reliable support that helps them feel safe and loved. Whether in my home or a client’s, I create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow routines carefully, provide consistent attention, and make sure pets feel relaxed and happy. I truly love spending time with animals, whether that means playing, walking, or simply keeping them company, so they feel cared for like family.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for family pets and about 7 years of hands on experience training and caring for my own dogs. I currently have a small Maltese/Yorkie mix and i understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs. I’m naturally fun and high functioning energy, so I’m comfortable keeping up with active dogs, but I’d say patience is one of my biggest strengths. Working in healthcare has taught me how important patience, attentiveness, and compassion are, and I bring that same approach when caring for animals. I work PRN(as needed) in healthcare, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to have plenty of time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. My availability can vary week to week, but I’m able to plan my schedule around pet care and make sure your pet gets plenty of playtime, walks, and companionship. I live in a one-bedroom apartment with access to a dog park, a large open field directly in front of my complex, and several nearby walking trails. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and given plenty of opportunities for exercise and outdoor time. I’ll also follow any routines, feeding instructions, or special care preferences you provide so your pet feels as comfortable and safe as possible.

About: I’ve been petting sitting since I was 13 from walking my neighbors dog while they were away for the day to feeding my best friends snake when she went on a 2 week vacation. There aren’t many animals I dislike and always open to taking care of new animals. I currently work in retail with a varying schedule but always off by 6 pm and every other weekend off. Most days I am in a 9-5 role but there are a few days that I open at 6 am. I am open to dog walking, house sitting at home or dropping in multiple times a day. I have multiple cats. I feed them a both wet food and dry food, scoop their litter boxes at least once a day with a once a week clean. I live in a small place, while I am not able to board I will check on your animal multiples times if needed, make sure they get plenty of enrichment and loves.

About: I am a stay at home mom in the greater Charlotte area. I do Lyft part time and as a result I have the flexibility to do drop in visits and walks pretty much any time. Currently, I only provide dog sitting services at the dog's home, drop-in visits and dog walking services. Dogs adjust to the stress of their owners being away better when they are in a familiar environment. Drop-in visits include feeding the dog, giving them water, let them out to play, baths, and give them walks as needed. I can also bring in the mail, water plants, etc, I like for the animals to stick to their natural routine as closely as possible and make the time while their owners are away go by fast. My child is 2 and will be watched during the day from 8:30 am -6:00 pm. For overnight stays depending on the day of the week he will be with me or it can be worked out that he can stay with family members if your dogs aren’t used to small children. He is an animal lover like his mother. He is around a small dog during the day everyday since he was about 13 months old. He has a great affection for dogs. I have always love dogs since I was young and being able to give them love and meet their needs works perfectly for me! Things I would like to know before meeting your fur baby! *What are their likes and dislikes *What does a routine schedule consist of *How many times a day to you feed your fur baby *Is your fur baby kenneled or allowed to be free while your away * Are there any special dietary needs, medications, conditions that would require extra attention and care * How does your pet interact with other animals (in case walking and come across another dog or a rabbit) I would love to do a meet and greet with you and your fur baby at a dog friendly park or in the privacy of your home!

About: 17 years ago, my siblings and I finally convinced our parents to get us a dog! We didn’t just get one; we got two—Scrappy and Coco! As a responsible pet owner, I made sure to prioritize their well-being, even during their senior years. Scrappy was a playful active pup and Coco was big couch potato who simply adored cuddles. This diverse experience allowed me to gain valuable insights into both active and less active dogs. Unfortunately, Coco passed away due to liver cancer, but she was truly the best dog a girl could ever ask for. Scrappy, now a senior (17), currently resides with my sister. I typically dog sit for my sister, and my co-workers, whenever they go out of town. I also recently adopted Frodo, the cutest mini Australian shepherd! He loves playing fetch with his toys, especially his ball, and he’s always ready for the next adventure. I’m happy to accommodate your pup’s needs before or after my work schedule. I typically work 5days out of the week with the times varying from 6:00A-2:30P, 12:00P-8:00P or 2:00P-10:00P. Depending on your location I can let them out for potty break during my lunch break, however if the location is too far from my work, I can send my boyfriend, Aaron to assist in a potty break and feeding. I am happy to bring him along for the Meet and Greet just in case I need his assistance. If you have a fenced-in yard, I’ll keep a watchful eye on them while they play. If your dog requires medication, I’ll be more than happy to assist in any way I can. You can be rest assured that I’ll treat your pet just like my own with lots of love and care. I’ll send daily updates and photos so you can relax and enjoy your time away from home

About: I bring over 30 years of animal experience to the table. Growing up, my home was always filled with pets—giving me hands-on experience caring for not just dogs, but cats, ferrets, hamsters, guinea pigs, and reptiles! For the past 10 years, I have managed my own unique, dog-loving household. I am a proud parent of a chocolate lab mix with an autoimmune disorder and a French bulldog with IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease). Life with these diseases can be challenging, but because of my pets' medical needs, I maintain a routine, low-stress, calm environment and have specialized experience with safety, mobility care, and medical limitations. I manage complex routines, including timely feedings with medications, frequent lifting and carrying of my Frenchie using appropriate techniques, and walks with a specialized stroller so both of my dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely together. My hope is that my boys always feel safe, loved, and cared for and I hope to ensure the same for your fur children. Whether your pet is high-energy or requires a quiet, fragile care routine, I will be their biggest advocate. I am also incredibly comfortable providing drop-in care for cats! If your cat prefers a calm, quiet presence, I am an expert at respecting their boundaries while ensuring they are fed, their litter is pristine, and they get plenty of affection. 📢 School Teacher Schedule: Wide open all day Saturday & Sunday! Weekdays available starting at 3:00 PM. I’m a local elementary school teacher, and when I'm not in the classroom or traveling and hiking, my heart belongs to my two high needs fur children. I have a passion for teaching children, loving animals, and advocating for those who are unable to advocate for themselves. As an educator, safety, patience, communication, and keeping a strict routine are second nature to me. My Availability: Because of my school schedule, my availability is highly reliable and structured: Weekdays: Available for afternoon and evening walks or drop-in visits. Weekends: Full, flexible availability throughout the day. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and giving them the extra love and specialized care they deserve! Safety & Trust Are My Top Priorities: As an elementary school teacher, safety, strict adherence to routines, and clear communication are part of my daily professional life. I am fully background-checked, exceptionally detail-oriented, and treat every client's home with the utmost respect and security (ensuring doors are locked, alarms are set, and keys are secure). Medical & Specialized Care: Because I manage a personal household with severe medical needs (IVDD and an autoimmune disorder), I bring an advanced level of safety to your home: Low-Stress Environment: I can recognize subtle signs of animal anxiety or discomfort and actively maintain a calm, gentle energy to keep pets relaxed. Spinal & Mobility Safety: I know exactly how to safely lift, carry, and support dogs with back issues or limited mobility to prevent injury. Medication & Routine Precision: I am completely comfortable administering oral medications and following strict veterinary care plans precisely. For your peace of mind, you will receive updates and photos after every visit.

I also worked with a hunting dog training program, cleaning kennels, feeding, and playing with working dogs.

About: Reliable pet sitting with plenty of love, attention, exercise, and cuddles. Your pet's comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has a unique personality. Whether your companion needs energetic playtime or quiet companionship, I'll provide personalized care in a safe, loving environment. I'm currently working full-time but can schedule time with your pet after 5:00pm most weekdays and scheduled time on weekends based on availability. I'm also available to home sit for vacations, business trips, etc. When I pet sit in a client's home, my priority is providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while maintaining the pet's normal routine. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I carefully follow the owner's instructions for feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and daily activities. I ensure pets have fresh water at all times, provide meals according to their dietary needs, and monitor their appetite and overall behavior for any signs of illness or distress. Dogs receive regular walks, bathroom breaks, exercise, and plenty of playtime, while cats and other pets receive enrichment, litter box or habitat cleaning, and affection based on their individual personalities and comfort levels. Safety is always a top priority. I keep doors, gates, and windows secure to prevent escapes, remove potential hazards from the pet's environment, supervise outdoor time, and follow any household rules regarding furniture, crates, or restricted areas. I also monitor pets for any changes in health or behavior and contact the owner immediately if I notice anything concerning. In the event of an emergency, I follow the owner's instructions and seek veterinary care if necessary. I treat every home with respect by keeping it clean and tidy, bringing in mail or packages if requested, watering plants, and leaving the home in the same condition as I found it. Throughout the stay, I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home while giving owners peace of mind that their beloved companion is receiving attentive, reliable, and compassionate care.

“Angie did a great job with my dog, and messaged me throughout. Afterwards, there was a slight incident where maintenance at my complex entered my home while I was away without notifying me, and I assumed Angie may have done it. I lashed out very reactionary, and despite that, Angie remained professional and tried to help. I apologize again, and appreciate how great she did with my pet as well remaining professional when I have her reason not to.”

About: I have always loved and cared for animals basically all of my life. I have a chihuahua named Minnie and cat named Blue Kittles, both are very friendly, loving, and full of energy! I love caring for animals while making sure they're happy, healthy, and safe! I graduated from North Carolina A&T State University with a Bachelors in Animal Science in December 2020. Being that I have a lot experience working with dogs, cats, chickens, turkey, cattle, and swine animals it doesn’t matter what kind of animal you may have I know what it takes to keep any animal safe and happy ! As a teacher on summer break, I now have more time to care for my pets daily with walks, feedings, grooming, and extra play and bonding. I provide consistent care by feeding, walking, grooming, and giving attention to pets. In clients' homes, I follow specific instructions to maintain routines and comfort.

Jennifer was fantastic! She was on time and took good care of Neil. The 3 days she walked him were warm/hot days. She made sure to not let him get overheated and brought him back inside before the 30 minutes was up. I was definitely grateful for that! The rest of the time, she loved on him before she left.

Saya is the best dog walker I've ever had. My dog adores her (and my dog is picky!). In addition, Saya is (1) incredibly trustworthy (2) has amazing communication (3) very kind / thoughtful. When my dog gets all upset about putting on her harness, Saya gave her belly rubs. Saya has totally won my dog and myself over. Lexie is a happier, healthier dog because of Saya. I am happy to be a reference for her at any point!!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Jamestown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Jamestown is $18 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $24 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 1,516 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Jamestown. 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 Jamestown. 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 Jamestown 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 Jamestown. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
