“Thank you so much for all you did! ❤️ I'm glad he was a good boy. Feel free to help work with him on no jumping. He does know sit and stay for when you leave too! I hope he didn't scratch you up or make bruises, he didn't mean to if he did.”

“Al is a 5 star sitter . He did care for my dog. He communicates and answers in time all the messages. He comes in time to walk my dog. He sends a lot of pictures during the walk. I highly recommend to hire him.”
“Nicole was very responsive and sent me lots of pet photos while I was away! She even included pictures of my cat who she was not being paid to take care of. She was very patient with my dog who tends to be scared of new people. I highly recommend Nicole!”

About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all sizes. I can provide house sitting, light housekeeping, and pet care including dog walking. I would love to work with you to meet your needs and ensure your beloved pets and your home are safely cared for. I have a full time job in the mental health field. However, I am able to work remotely part of the time, giving me additional flexibility when providing pet and house sitting. I am available to stay at your house while pet and house sitting, or to drop in to provide pet care if preferred. I am a quick learner and will follow all protocols asked of me.
About: I have been working with dogs for over 9 years now. I also have 3 small dogs that make this life worth while! When I’m not dog sitting, I love to hop in the RV with my dogs and take amazing road trips! I have trained puppies as well. I’m currently working from home and can watch your pets at any time! I love to take frequent breaks to run outside with my dogs and would love to do the same for your pets!i I have a fenced backyard. I also follow directions. If a client tells me what is needed, then I will make sure to go above and beyond to meet those requested needs!
About: As a work-from-home professional, I can keep your fur baby company all day long, and check in multiple times a day. Does your energetic herding dog need twice-daily walks or visits to the dog park? No problem -- they're just like the Australian Shepherd I grew up with and the Rough Collie I petsit regularly. I am also an ardent cat lover with experience caring for my aging childhood cat (age 20+), as well as a skittish rescue with seasonal allergies. If you have a senior cat who needs extra care or shy kitten who needs daily medication, I'm the petsitter for you. I have an extremely flexible schedule and can accomodate boarding every day of the week. I'm also available for daycare across Raleigh, although I may have more limited availability on Wednesday and Thursday nights, as well as Sunday afternoons and evenings. Feel free to ask about my schedule! I live in a townhouse with a small, fenced-in patio and my one cat. She is typically kept in a separate part of the house during boarding, so I can accommodate animals who are reactive to cats. The yard is great for smaller dogs who enjoy being outside, but I can also care for larger animals who need lots of exercise!
About: **I currently work Monday through Friday 6-2 so unfortunately I will not be available anytime before or during those hours. But available anytime after 3, if you're very close to me or on my way to work I may be able to go before work at 4.** -Ive been around dogs and cats my entire life, I have worked at an animal hospital in the kennel area, so I dealt with the animals who stayed over night, also helped vet techs in rooms. I will treat your baby like my own -I only do walks and drop ins at the moment due to my fur baby. Please message me with any questions or concerns. Thank you ❤️ I work a full time job from 6-2 Monday through Friday. And open pretty much the rest of the day after I get off. My availability is open on weekends When coming to take your baby out or visit your baby I make sure I'm aware of my surroundings, make sure their collar is fitted properly so they don't attempt to back out of it for some reason.
About: Having cared for my own pets, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’ll take the time to learn their personality and follow their usual routine, from meals and walks to playtime and quiet company. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a slower pace, I’ll give them attentive care and plenty of affection. I’ll also send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. I work from home running my own business, and I plan pet care around my work commitments. Before each booking, we’ll agree on a schedule that fits your pet’s routine, including meals, walks, bathroom breaks, and time for attention and play. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before we begin. I’ll follow your care instructions, keep dogs leashed on walks, and check that doors and gates are secure. When visiting your home, I’ll respect your space and leave things as I found them. You’ll receive photos and updates, and I’ll contact you promptly with any concerns.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Knightdale
Amy has been wonderful to work with ! She was very communicative before and after the visits which was much appreciated. She is very kind and I can tell that my dog is in good hands with her. I will definitely be using her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone else looking for someone to care for their dog!
Brian was amazing this week as always. We are so grateful for Brian every week when we need to go in to the office. Brian takes such great care of our girls and makes sure they have everything they need and lots of love while we are away. We wouldn't trust anyone else with our girls and we're so glad they adore their time with Brian

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 Knightdale. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
