About: An FFA (Future Farmers of America) member who helped with our doggy daycare program for a year ranging from medium to small dogs.

About: Hey there my name is Kristen, I have grown up with cats and dogs my entire life. Caring for animals has been something I have enjoyed for quiet awhile now, I am most comfortable with walking, feeding, and playing with your pets. Besides caring for my personal pets I use to volunteer/foster for an animal rescue back home in NC. I have dogs of my own from all different age and breed types. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask! I am more than happy to watch your fur babies while you are away!

My dogs are my top priority, and so will your animals. :) For pet sitting and dog walking, I focus on maintaining each pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. During visits, I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. For dogs, I offer safe, enjoyable walks tailored to their energy level, age, and needs. I also clean up after pets, refresh litter boxes if needed, and keep feeding and living areas tidy. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including medication schedules, dietary requirements, and any special care needs. I monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates, photos, and messages so owners know their pets are doing well. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care while ensuring pets stay happy, safe, and comfortable in their familiar environment.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Fern
Soraya was fantastic with Odin today. He’s a blind dog with special needs, and she handled him with patience, confidence, and the right energy from the moment she arrived. She was punctual, attentive, and brought a calm but upbeat demeanor that made a real difference. It’s clear she understands how to care for dogs that require a little extra awareness. Odin was comfortable with her, and that says everything. Would absolutely book again.
Nancy was incredibly patient and kind with our little yorkie Tiffany who isn’t very sociable and can be a bit cautious around new people, but Nancy took the time to understand Tiffany and quickly found common language with her. Thank you so much, Nancy, for taking such great care of Tiffany 🐾

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 Lake Fern. 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 Lake Fern.

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 Lake Fern. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 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.
