“Luke was a fantastic dog walker. I had to hire him last minute because of an emergency and he was so flexible with all of the difficulties I threw his way. My dog had a great time with him and I loved all the pictures I got! I would truly recommend him to anyone looking for a dog walker that truly puts your dog’s happiness first.”

About: I'm a dog mom of a 2-years old Golden Retriever girl named Lani and spending time with her is truly the best. I also regularly volunteer at SPCA of Wake County as a "Dog Butler", where I spend time caring for and interacting with dogs with different personalities and needs. As a dog owner myself I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member and how difficult it can be to find that someone. I'm patient, attentive, reliable and I enjoy everything from long walks and playing time to cuddles and relaxing together. I'm comfortable following each dog's individual routine, including feeding, schedules, walks and special instructions from their owners. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy and well cared, while giving you as the owner peace of mind knowing your furbabies are in caring and loving hands. After relocating from Germany to Raleigh, I'm currently at home and have a very flexible schedule. I'm essentially a full-time dog-mom, so I have time and flexibility to care for your pup, doing drop-in visits and walks. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. Since I currently provide care in the client's home, I make sure to follow your pets routine, house rules and any special instructions you provide. I always treat your home and your furry family member with care and respect. I want you to feel completely comfortable while you're away.

About: Even as a kid, I was the primary caregiver for my childhood dog, Zoey. I took responsibility for making sure she was fed and watered, taking her for long walks and playing with her in our backyard. I knew that when I grew up, I would adopt a dog as soon as I could. A few months before I was discharged from the Marine Corps, I reached out to my hometown's local animal shelter about Baron. Baron was a 2-year-old, Boxer/Pit mix and from the moment I saw his picture, I knew he was going to be my boy. I called the shelter regularly to see if he was still there and let them know the day I could pick him up. I drove from my base in California to my Mom's house in Florida, dropped my stuff off, and immediately went to the shelter to adopt Baron. For the first few months I took him everywhere I went. All my friends and family knew that if Dan was coming, so was Baron. A few years after adopting Baron, I shared pictures of him with a girl I was talking to, and she immediately wanted to meet him. I took him for a walk with her and, as they say, the rest is history, she’s my wife. She brought two cats to the relationship, Teyla and Cara, and I eventually adopted a third cat, Ahsoka, with her. I cared for Baron together for 10 years. In 2022, he was diagnosed with bone cancer in his jaw, and we decided to try surgery, chemo and radiation. My wife and I got another 3 years with him, when the vet had told us he had 6 months to live. In 2025, his cancer returned, and he passed away just a few months before I got married. I spread some of his ashes at our wedding ceremony at one of the purest lakes in New Zealand and his name is engraved on our wedding bands. Shortly after saying goodbye to Baron, my wife and I adopted our fourth cat, Leia. I like to say she is Baron reincarnated because she follows me everywhere and has taken his place begging for food at the dinner table. I love meeting new dogs and cats, and have never met a dog that doesn't like me (I think everyone knows that cats aren't always that easy to win over!). As the caregiver for your pet, I bring years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I have experience with puppies, kittens, and senior dogs and cats. I am experienced with delivering oral and topical medications, and hand feeding. I am experienced with obedience training and basic commands, crate training, walking on a lead, different types of dog collars, and off leash e-collar use. I understand how to safely have dogs meet, and what signs to look for to signal aggression, discomfort, fear, or playfulness when around other dogs. I understand that pets have routines and schedules, and I will adjust my day to make sure your pet can keep their routine. I know what it's like to have another person care for my pets, and I will make sure to send photos and messages with updates to let you know your pet is safe and happy. As a stay-at-home trophy husband and cat dad, my day is flexible and I can ensure your pet's care and comfort is my top priority. I am currently working part time so I have a flexible schedule to acommodate your pet's routine. Your pet will get a considerable amount of attention and care while I'm with them. I have used Rover in the past for my own dog so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, whether it's reinforcing good behavior or just giving lots of care and love, your pet's well being is my top priority. I'm available when you need me. From checking in on your pets while you are on vacation, taking your dog for a nice stimulating walk, or staying the night with your pets, let me know what works best for you! I will care for your pet in your home so they feel safe and comfortable. I will always have your dog on a leash and check the immediate area for other people/animals before leaving the house. I will respect your home like it's my own house, and I will follow your pet's schedule and house rules.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for them. I currently have a golden doodle of my own, and my parents have two labs, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve always helped care for family and friends’ dogs and genuinely enjoy giving them the love, attention, exercise, and the care they need! As a stay at home mom, my schedule is flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my day. I’m able to offer daytime drop in visits, walks, potty breaks, and plenty of attention while you’re away. Your pets comfort and safety is my number one priority. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and will make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Welcome to your pet’s home away from home 💛 Hi there! We’re a fun-loving, animal-obsessed couple who believe life is simply better with paws, tails, and a little bit of fur on everything. We moved from Colorado a few years ago, where we had the joy of hosting all kinds of animals—big, small, shy, energetic—you name it, we’ve loved it! Both of us grew up on farms in the Midwest, so caring for animals has always been second nature and one of our favorite things to do. These days, we both work from home during the week, which means your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and snuggles all day long. Our home is very much a pet-first household—around here, animals run the show! Whether your pet loves curling up on the couch, stretching out in bed, or following us around all day, they’re welcome to make themselves completely at home. No strict rules here—just lots of love, comfort, and flexibility. We also have a super friendly pup who absolutely loves making new friends and gets along great with other animals. Daily life includes walks around the neighborhood, and the occasional trip to the dog park for extra zoomies. We’re very laid-back and flexible with schedules—whatever works best for you and your pet, works for us! Our goal is to make sure you feel completely at ease while your furry family member is safe, happy, and spoiled. We can’t wait to meet you and your pet—and give them all the love they deserve! 🐾 I currently am working remote so 3 - 4 long walks is my current routine. I live close to numerous trails so you can count on your pup always getting the best outdoor experience while he/ she is with me. I have one very friendly dog who loves to play, I am always home to keep an eye on him and any other friends we have at the time. I am very diligent in my care because I know I would expect the same of someone watching my guy, you can always be sure that in my care your fur baby will get lots of love and attention… and treats of course.

About: Hi, my name is Kyla! I am a creative and wildlife graduate who loves animals of all kinds! I'm experienced with both large and small dogs, as well as cats and even reptiles! I have 3 cats, a leopard gecko, and a childhood dog. I enjoy playing with them all, teaching them new tricks, and going on regular walks. I'm very flexible and will try my best to work with your busy schedule. Don't hesitate to reach out for any additional needs such as putting food out, giving treats, or refilling water bowls. I understand that animals can get anxious when their hoomans are away and I will be sure to make sure they feel safe and as calm as can be. I'm thrilled to get to know your best friend and go above and beyond in any way that I can. I currently run my own crochet business, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I am available during the day Monday-Friday and on all day on some weekends! I am in an apartment with cats of my own, I do not offer boarding or doggy daycare. I do offer home stays and am very experienced with it! I am also available to drop by to walk, feed, or play with your fur baby!

About: Hi, my name is Tiffany! I'm here to care for your pets like I do my very own cat and dog. Through fostering and my personal life I have experience feeding, cleaning after, and caring for a kitten, adult cat, puppy, and adult dog. We can take a walk around the neighborhood and hit all of their favorite sniff spots, a snack if approved, and of course...belly rubs! I would love to get to know your fur babies 🙂 "Animals are such agreeable friends ― they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms." I'm currently working a full time job at the moment. I am hoping to do some part time walking and sitting when my schedule permits so I can get my dog and cat fix! I understand and respect that pets have certain routines. I am happy to accommodate any needs such as pets being crated, pets with a limited diet (allergies), pets that require a harness for walking, and pets that may not do well with others.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Knightdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Knightdale is $19 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 4,835 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Knightdale. 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 Knightdale. 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 Knightdale 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 Knightdale. On Rover:

  • 89% 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.
