“Today was the first time Tricia walked Daisy. She came and met with us last week and we immediately had peace of mind. She is so loving and Daisy accepted her immediately. We were so lucky to find her!!”
“Emilee was wonderful! She came by for a meet and greet ahead of time, which gave me so much peace of mind, and took great care of my dogs during a big day for me. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly very comfortable with them. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book with her again.”
About: Hello! I’m an animal science major at North Carolina State University. I’ve been pet sitting for 6 years now for friends and family. I worked at Willow Run Dog Boarding for 4 years before they sold it. I’ve also helped out long-term for a family who worked night shifts for a year and I foster dogs through Saving Grace while I’m at school! I’m a college student home for the summer, and I'm currently looking for a part-time job. I’m free all day everyday 🤗 I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walks, playtime, and cleaning litter boxes. At home, we have a fenced-in yard and one husky, but I prefer caring for pets through home visits so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment. I’m also happy to help with small tasks around the house like watering plants, bringing in mail, or keeping things tidy while you’re away. I enjoy being active and outdoors, while also making sure pets stay safe and comfortable in the heat.
About: I’m a dedicated cat owner of two adorable cats and understand how important routines, litter box monitoring, feeding schedules, and daily updates are for pet parents. My childhood dog passed away last year, but he was an 110 lb German Shepherd /Alaskan Malamute and I would walk him daily, so I am no stranger to big dogs! I will make sure to send many update pics 😊 Use my code below for $20 off your first Rover! https://www.rover.com/sit/audref10358 I currently work a 9-5 but am off at 12 on Fridays, so I am available after work for walks and drop-in’s as well as anytime Friday after 1 and anytime on the weekends! My cats are indoor cats but I am no stranger to taking care of dogs, and big ones at that. Your pet’s safety is my #1 concern
“Abby was so great with our Ella. She arrived on time and took great care in remembering all the nuanced instructions we had. Ella enjoyed a great walk and we were happy to know she was taken care of while we were away. 🐶❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of so many different kinds of dogs since I was a little girl, from helping with breeding, nursing baby puppies back to health, potty training, growing up, and also as they grew old. Small dogs, medium dogs, large dogs, they all have been a part of my life of which I have enjoyed. Sadly, seizures and surgeries with daily medications have also been a part of the care I have given. I LOVE animals and love on any of those in my care like they are my own. I’m off work in the summers and can board all days of the week. When I go back to work, I can still board dogs all days of the week, but would just be away from home during my working hours. I have a fenced in backyard and two friendly dogs that will keep your pup comfortable while you are away. I also have two crates that can be used unless you prefer to bring your own. Dog beds, blankets, and dog water are available at all times.
About: Hi there! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15 and have had the pleasure of caring for a wide variety of animals. Pet owners have trusted me with rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, as well as cats and dogs of all sizes. I’ve worked with breeds ranging from tiny chihuahuas to large St. Bernards, and I’m experienced with pets from energetic 6-month-old puppies to senior companions up to 14 years old. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always strive to provide attentive, loving care so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently an artist working from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. I’m available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, and playtime, as well as early morning feedings and late-night potty breaks. Because I’m home most of the time, your pet will get consistent attention, care, and companionship while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I offer house-sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits, and I care for pets in their own home so they can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment. During house-sitting, I stay in your home to provide consistent care, companionship, and supervision. For drop-in visits and walks, I make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, feeding, and playtime they need while you’re away. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I treat every home with respect and keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have been around cats for as long as I can remember and have owned a dog for almost 10 years now. I have helped family and friends care for their pets for a long time. I have helped many different sized pets at many different ages. I currently am just doing online classes at Forsyth Tech so I am free whenever to take care of pets. I currently do not have anything else in my schedule. I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort while caring for them. I will follow all instructions closely, keep a watchful eye on their well-being, and ensure they get the attention they need. You can trust me to treat your your pet with love and respect.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have had years of experience of learning how to take care of animals. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, playing and giving lots of love to your pets! I understand all needs and will help make them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away! I love being around dogs and will treat every single puppy like they are my own. I currently work a part-time job, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to care for your pets. I have my own dogs and cats that I care for every day, so I am experienced with daily routines such as feeding, walking, playtime, and giving them the attention they need. I would be happy to include your pets in that same loving care and treat them as if they were my own I am available for drop-in visits and can stop by your home to feed, walk, play with, and check on your pets while you’re away. I understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable in their own environment and will make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship during each visit. I am dependable, responsible, and will treat your home and pets with the same care I give my own.
About: I've had pets growing up my entire life. I love animals and just enjoy being around them and giving them love! I've taken care of several pets for friends and family and just want to continue to do that for others when needed. I have my own business so I have a very flexible schedule and can be available day or night to take care of your furr babies 😊 My own animals are so friendly and loving and my home would be completely safe for ur furr babies but at this time I won't be able to board any pets at my house. This may change in the future.
About: Dogs have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve navigated everything from the 'puppy phase' to the delicate needs of senior dogs, including hands-on medical care like shots and daily meds. These days, I spend my time with Alfie, my 3-year-old Golden Retriever. I’ve raised him since he was a puppy, training him myself and enjoying our daily routine of fetch and lounging. I’ve never met a dog I didn't like, and I’m just as comfortable handling a tiny Terrier as I am a powerful Cane Corso! I am a teacher on summer break looking to put pet parents minds at ease just as my own Rover sitter does during the school year! As a professional educator, I bring a high level of safety, accountability, and care to my students and pets. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with a focus on security and routine. I’m happy to let your pups out for some fresh air in a fenced yard or take them on leashed walks to burn off some energy.
About: If you need caring, compassionate, reliable, loving service for your furry sweethearts I am available to make them the center of attention. With me they get a bit of a holiday themselves. My work takes me oceanside for extended periods: so when I’m available to house/pet sit for you, I am devoted to all their needs. Presently I am auntie to several cats and dogs that for more than a decade I have been house/pet sitting. I have also cared for horses, goats, chickens, geese and peacocks. I love learning animal’s individual personalities and ingratiating myself in to their familial pack. In my life I have owned a German Shepherd, a Malinois and a Husky as well as numerous cats. I grew up walking the dog, so I prefer to exercise the canines regularly. Playtime for everyone will include some brushing. I have no problems giving oral medications or injections. And I have cared for sick animals of my own as well as others. My entry in to your home will be with complete respect, integrity and detailed consideration. My references will tell you how I am attentive not only to your pets but your home: be it garden or plant care, and most especially having your home be as if you had never left upon your return.
About: I was raised on a farm with cats and dogs. I have a plott hound mix, a pit bull, a lab, and a sassy calico cat, all rescues, of my own. I have a lot of compassion for animals and treat them like members of the family, albeit spoiled ones. My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible while their human(s) are gone. I am comfortable with cats and small to large dogs at any energy level. My neighbors, vet, and friends can provide references, if needed. I work in education, so my summer schedule is wide open. Nights, weekends, and some holidays are possible during the school year. I am able to check in, walk, stay overnight, etc. In your home, I will follow the instructions given and take pictures to let you know your pets are well taken care of. My goal is to make them as comfortable as possible while their humans are away.
“Kyleigh is the best. She is flexible- our family appreciates because our schedules are crazy but she’s willing to make it work where she can. I trust her completely in my home and with my dog and cat. She is someone you can trust, count on, and will be exceptionally kind and loving with your pets. I would t hesitate to recommend Kyleigh.”
About: I volunteered at Forsyth Humane Society for 3 1/2 years. I have worked with many different breeds, big and small. I have 1 large boy, 3 medium sized girls and 1 small girl, of my own. I am in the process of becoming a certified dog trainer and should be complete with my training this summer. I have experience working with dogs with special needs, behavioral issues and other specific situations that require special attention or instruction I own my own business, so I make my own schedule. I can be flexible. I currently have time in the mornings or late afternoon/evenings for drop in visits I have multiple crates for dogs in my house. I also have kennels outdoors for my dogs to play during the day, which are covered. I will be sure to follow any instructions you may have for your pet. I will ensure to establish a connection with your pets so that they become familiar with me and comfortable and take the time to learn things they do and do not like or activities that they may enjoy doing.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for friends and neighbors and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or extra attention, I’ll make sure they stay happy, active, and well cared for while you’re away. I am a pre-med student at NC State that is looking to continue caring for animals and enjoy doing it! I am home for the summer and have a flexible schedule. I’m organized and good at planning ahead, which helps me stay consistent with visits and make sure pets are cared for on time.

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 Kernersville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Kernersville.

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.

- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
