About: Excited to meet your pet! Experienced with seniors to puppies! Reliable, professional & local. I love playtime & happy to visit dog parks (if you like). This is now my full time job! My days are built around walks and i am flexible, local and reachable. I keep my calendar current and don't take bookings I cannot make. I do a meet & greet before every visit so we can align on your pups needs. You will get a note from me after each visit so you know how everything went. You will also get photos and I am happy to hear from you as well.
About: Pets have been a part of my life ever since I can remember! Cats, dogs, and (most recently) chinchillas! I love pets and giving them the time and attention they deserve. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to spend extra time with your pets throughout the day. I’m also flexible and often available for last-minute requests. 🐱 Cats • Boarding, including long-term stays • Drop-in visits • Overnight stays 🐶 Dogs • Dog walking • Drop-in visits • Overnight stays 🐹 Small Exotic Pets • Drop-in care • Overnight care Whether you need a quick visit, regular walks, or a longer stay, I want your pet to feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home, so I have plenty of time to care for and spend with your pets. Available for last-minute cat boarding requests, dog walks, overnights, and cat/dog drop-ins. Cat Boarding: I have a dog and cats, but our dog is not allowed upstairs where your cat(s) will have their own private bedroom, separate from my pets. This will allow for your cat to feel safe and comfortable in their own space.
“My dog is thrilled to be walking with Christina. She is a warm, friendly person, and my dog Is so comfortable with her. After the first walk, Rosie was exhausted and happy. Now she goes to the front door and looks out the window about the same time every day, and starts making happy noises when she sees Christina. She handled my big dog who tends to pull hard at the start with no problem. I trust her completely.”

“Sherrie is the best. She was available on short notice, communicated fabulously, took our dog for an awesome walk and provided photos. We are thrilled with her service and highly recommend her.”

About: Hi! I split my time between Greensboro and Rehoboth! Weekends in Rehoboth and during the week in Greensboro, with some flexibility! I have lifelong experience and deep love for animals. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life, including my own three dogs – one of whom is a senior and two other high energy dogs, including a Whippet and a Jack Russell blend – along with two indoor/outdoor rescue barn cats. With a large property for exercise and play, I understand the unique needs of different breeds and personalities. My experience extends beyond my own pets, as I’ve been trusted to care for others beloved animals for years. I’m passionate about providing attentive and reliable care, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am a teacher and will be gone from my home 8 hours of the day. I can be available to come let pets out for a potty break in the middle of the day some days. I am free on weekends all day. If your pet is crate trained they will be on the same schedule as my own! I have cared for many animals, boarding, walking/running, and general care. My pets are allowed on furniture for snuggles and free roam of the house, to explore and move! I have two high energy dogs that need to go on runs daily. I am fit and we are on a dirt road and a large property so getting exercise is easy! My dogs have their own bedroom and actual bed, but are also crate trained for during the day. They are very friendly, love other animals and our cats!
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. Raising 5 well mannered dogs from puppies over the years has taught me the patience and consistency needed to keep your pet happy and safe. We have cared for many friends and family’s dogs. I am newly retired and looking forward to getting outdoors and being active. I love long walks and helping pets get some exercise would make it that much more fun.. I will make sure to follow the homeowners instructions for each pet so they get the care requested while keeping their pet safe and happy.

About: I've taken care of a wide variety of animals my whole life. While I love all types of pets, dogs are my favorite. I have lots of experience. One of my dogs was a therapy dog within the public school system as part of a literacy program for elementary children. I have a nice fenced in backyard and live close to two pet friendly parks. My schedule is very flexible. There is always someone at home 24/7 so your furry friend will never be lonely. I can board, sit, or walk almost anytime. I have a nice fenced in backyard and live very close to two pet friendly parks. I have a very friendly corgi named Rocco to keep your fur babies company.

About: FYI--Recently retired from the Federal Government. I did a Katrina mission to offer counseling to those who lost their homes. However, I was asked to volunteer in a pet shelter because the pets were abandoned due to the crisis at hand. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I figured I could do it, if I didn't look the pets straight in the eye (to prevent the heartbreak and the tears from flowing). Well, one little doggie who was in the corner of her pen shaking and shivering, grabbed ahold of my ankle as I was walking out of her pen (after cleaning it and feeding and watering her) and she wouldn't let go. She dragged her little butt along the concrete flooring as I tried to close the gate. I broke down into tears immediately and said "okay, I'll take you home with me and the cat in the pen next to you". Yes, I rescued them both... Or should I say they rescued me..from Empty Nest Syndrome. They have brought so much love into my life! My Mississippi Mud Pie (Boston Terrier) has now gone to Doggie Heaven and I want to provide love to other's pets in honor of her memory. My schedule has recently opened up more since retiring from the Federal Government, and I have a lot of time to devote to other's pets and animal care. When a dog is in my care, I provide very frequent walks and cater to your pet throughout the entire time they are with me. I like keeping animals happy and content. I provide a safe, trusting and caring environment. I am very nurturing and provide excellent care and attention. I am very attentive of animals needs.

About: I have had 4 dogs, 1 chessie, 2 huskies and 1wolf-husky hybrid! I don't mind big playful pups but I can also appreciate the gentle lap dog even if he/she is 60 pounds(every dog is a lap dog) I'm just looking to make some extra money doing something I love. I have house(and pet)-sitted for many families in my neighborhood and even have keys to their homes full time because they found me so trustworthy. I love running around the yard, taking long walks and even just sitting around and giving dogs a good pet. I'm not opposed to going to dog parks AT ALL and will honestly probably fall in love with your dog I’m a full-time manager at a restaurant at the beach. However, I love the opportunity to get out and do things that I love in that includes pets. I strive to you insured that all the pets I take care of are comfortable and happy and feel well loved while their owner is away at work or on a trip
“Chelsea was awesome. 👏 She paid careful attention to Winston and was patient with him as he was a bit reluctant to walk with a new person. She followed all my instructions and took care of our baby. Will use her anytime I need help with Winston in the future.”

About: I have shared my home and heart with pets my entire life. Animals are not just a job for me—they are family. I know how difficult it can be to leave your furry family members behind, and I am here to give you total peace of mind while you are away. I currently manage a diverse household of three wonderful dogs, which means I am highly adaptable to different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels: -Two Pomeranians (Ages 2 & 10): I understand the delicate nature, high energy, and specific grooming/care needs of small toy breeds, from playful puppies to sensitive seniors. -Chocolate Labrador (Age 7): I love large, active breeds and am fully capable of handling big dogs who need plenty of exercise, structure, and play. I spent many years loving and caring for two German Shepherds until it was their time to cross the rainbow bridge. Both of my Shepherds faced significant health issues later in life. Through that emotional and rewarding journey, I gained extensive, hands-on experience with: -Maintaining strict, time-sensitive medication schedules. -Managing complex veterinary treatment plans. -Providing gentle, compassionate care to senior dogs with mobility and health challenges. I offer a full range of flexible care options to fit your schedule: -Boarding & House Sitting: Your dog can vacation at my house or stay cozy in theirs. -Drop-In Visits & Dog Walking: Perfect for quick bathroom breaks, playtime, or burning off energy. -Fully Fenced Yard: My home features a secure, fenced-in yard where your dogs can safely run, fetch, and play to their heart's content.

Whether your pup needs a high-energy walk, a strict medication routine, or just a lot of couch cuddles, I will treat them exactly like my own! I am a local Realtor with The Lee Ann Wilkinson Group at BHHS Penfed Realty, meaning my professional life requires some flexibility! I am completely open and available all day every Tuesday and Sunday. On other days, I often serve as our on-duty office agent or show properties to clients. However, I am always free after 5:00 PM for evening walks, drop-ins, or feedings! My real estate calendar is finalized weekly, so my Rover calendar is always kept strictly up-to-date. Please reach out and we can easily coordinate a schedule that works perfectly for your pet! In My Home (Boarding) Secure Fenced Yard: My home features a large, fully fenced yard where your pets can safely play, explore, and stretch their legs under direct supervision. Friendly Pack Environment: Your pet will blend right into my family, alongside my friendly Pomeranians and Chocolate Lab. I introduce all new pets slowly and safely. Realtor Schedule Safety: On days when I am showing homes or on duty at the office, dogs are safely separated into comfortable, designated spaces or crated (per your preference) to prevent any mischievous behavior while I am out. I also have a pet camera. In Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins)Respect & Privacy: As a licensed Realtor, I handle property keys, lockboxes, and home security every single day.

“Jasmine is Great with our 3 dogs. We were a little worried in the beginning because one is very protective and not very sociable, but they ALL love her and when they know she’s coming they get so excited to get their harnesses on and are waiting at the door. Highly recommend Jasmine!”
“Beca is wonderful! She is great with our pup and takes him on long walks which I love. She is great at communicating and giving us updates. We will definitely be using Beca again!”

About: I’ve taken care of my baby- Foxey for all 12 of her years. I also regularly take care of a large dog, a cat and a puppy weekly. I have experience with both big and small dogs, although mostly ones on the smaller side and am no stranger to administering medication. I also once housed a leopard gecko, so I’m open to other animals as well! I work in the early mornings, no longer than 5 hours typically. I have classes some days of the week but I’m generally pretty flexible. I’ve been successful in balancing taking care of pets and my own schedule. I do need Monday nights off as I’m a nanny those nights, but other than that I’m pretty free. I love to pet and snuggle them if they are bed bugs, and I’m also cool to just chill and walk them if they are more of a reserved dog. My dog is very nervous and reserved to anyone else but me so I get it lol

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 Lochwood. 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 Lochwood.

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 .

- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
