Dog Walking Lockwood

“Amanda has been such an amazing friend to Cosmo. We moved to 4th ward last week and the change was stressful on the little guy. Amanda immediately established a rapport with him and they have great walks together. She is also very punctual and communicates well.”

“This was our first Rover walk for Coug. He can be nervous with new people, and Rachel was patient, kind, and understanding of his personality. She communicated well and made me feel comfortable knowing he was being cared for. I would happily book with Rachel again.”

Jill S.

“Quick reply, patient, and wuper communicative!”

Josephine G.

“Amber did an amazing job walking Gungi! She was reliable, friendly, and made sure Gungi got the exercise and attention he needed. I could tell he was happy and well-cared for after their walks. I’ll definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker!”

Tyler D.

“Lindsey was a great dog walker for my two German shepherds who both have dog/animal reactivity and anxiety. She was extremely receptive to all my concerns and took all precautions needed to keep my dogs and others safe. In addition, she was kind, timely and communicative, all very important characteristics for me to trust my dogs with someone while I'm away. I will definitely use her services in the future.”

About: Passionate pet care professional, carrying years of experience taking care of the needs of animals, especially dogs. I've had a Chinese Crested Powder Puff (aged 15), a Chipoo Chinese Crested mix (aged 17), and multiple Jack Russell/Chihuahua/Shih Tzu mixes. I have some experience looking after cats as well! I am able to take care of pretty much all their essential needs. I can also provide playtime for pets under my supervision. I ensure that they are in a safe space and away from any hazards. I'm good at providing updates, with pictures included, so you know that your pet is doing well while you are away! I have a somewhat flexible schedule. I'm not too busy during the week, so my availability to provide care for pets have been pretty good. I'm very attentive when it comes to pets. You can rest assured that your furry friend will have a safe environment to running around and play in. Multiple pets that engage in playtime with each other will be supervised while under my care to mitigate any aggression that may come up during this activity.

About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, have been pet sitting for family and friends since I was young, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. In August 2025, my three-legged Dachshund became paralyzed after a spinal cord injury. He never regained feeling in his back legs, and for nearly 10 months I provided around the clock care to give him the best quality of life possible. I performed daily physical therapy, manually expressed his bladder and bowels, helped him eat, transported him to rehabilitation and acupuncture appointments, and adapted our home and routines to support his mobility. Although he had only one functioning leg, he continued to live a happy, love filled life until we had to say goodbye. That experience gave me extensive hands on experience caring for a disabled companion and deepened my love and understanding of animals. I have a special place in my heart for senior, disabled, and special needs furry friends, and I'm comfortable providing extra patience, medications, mobility assistance, and individualized care when needed. Since losing my dog, I have found myself with extra time and would love to spend it caring for other people's furry family members. I am self employed and work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of time with the animals in my care. I'm also very active and love going on walks, playing outside, or simply spending time cuddling on the couch, whatever makes your furry friend happiest. My goal is to make every companion feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. Because I'm self employed and work entirely from home, I have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime instead of leaving your furry friend alone for long periods. I live in a quiet, pet friendly neighborhood with a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, sniff, and explore. Whether your companion loves to stay active or simply relax with someone nearby, I can provide a calm, comfortable environment where they'll feel right at home. Creating a safe, comfortable environment is my top priority. My home is located in a quiet neighborhood and features a large, fully fenced backyard with a 10-foot privacy fence, giving dogs plenty of room to safely explore, sniff, play, and relax. The yard also has plenty of shade, making it a comfortable place to spend time outdoors even on warmer days. Inside, I have pet gates to help manage spaces safely, along with toys, cozy beds, and designated areas for rest and relaxation. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I also provide private spaces where a furry friend can decompress and have some quiet time if they are feeling nervous, overwhelmed, or simply prefer their own space. My goal is to create a calm, low-stress environment where every companion feels safe, secure, and cared for throughout their stay.

About: What sets me apart is my combination of professional veterinary experience and genuine love for animals. I have over three years of experience working in a veterinary hospital, where I learned to recognize signs of illness, handle pets with patience and compassion, and support pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, and caring for pets with special needs or medical conditions. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in caring, capable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work from home as a customer support representative for a veterinary clinic, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. Whether it's morning walks, midday potty breaks, playtime, feedings, or simply keeping your pet company, I'm able to give them plenty of attention while maintaining their normal routine. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active, making dog walks and play sessions one of my favorite parts of the day. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or simply stopping by for a visit or walk, I'll follow your instructions closely to help keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. With my veterinary background, I'm attentive to changes in behavior or health and understand the importance of careful observation. I'll ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, provide fresh food and water, clean up after your pet, and create a calm, positive environment where they feel safe and cared for. I also believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates, tons of photoshoots, and prompt communication throughout my visits. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is being treated like one of my own.

About: I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them is something I love. I took some vet classes in high school that helped me learn the basics! Such as their body behavior, basic handling, and how to administer medication. I also gained some experience with grooming and caring for senior dogs, as I understand older pets need extra patience and attention. I’ve trained my own dog to perform many tricks and sleep on his own, so if you have a puppy I’d be more than happy to show them some basic tricks and commands during our time together. While training takes time I’m always happy to help them learn more and build good habits. I’m currently available to do walks or pet visits in the evening where I can then on a walk or even go to the park and play. I’m a full time student and worker as well so for right now the only days I’m available are Friday and Sundays for boarding, pet sitting, and home visits and need at least a 2 day notice please! I live in an apartment where there is a little doggy park and it’s a very dog friendly environment. Inside my apartment they are able to be on the furniture and be with me at all times. I will be taking them out every 1-2 hours or if you need me to do it more often I would be more than happy to. While they are with me if you have any extra requests to have them be on the bed or keep them in their crate I will be happy to follow that.

“Excellent and communicated throughout all visits with photos. Punctual and took her time with Robie. Very satisfied and happy with her service.”

Al W.

“Kelly did a great job! She was able to arrange a last-minute meet and greet as I was traveling unexpectedly during New Years and did an excellent job with my two large dogs and 4 cats. She followed all of their care instructions and all of my pets were happy and well cared for when I returned. I am already scheduling my next booking with her, highly recommended!”

Megan M.

“Kelsey was wonderful with our dogs! I can’t wait to work with her again. Our dogs loved her. She was very communicative and responded quickly to messages. Great experience!”

Brooke W.

“Elizabeth was my first Rover experience and it has been great so far! She responds back quickly, she did a meet and greet with my dog prior to scheduling the first walk, was punctual, and also timed it well so my dog had a little play time with her after his walk. The cute pictures of my dog during the time were also a nice surprise and appreciated! Due to my work schedule, I’ll probably be scheduling with her monthly from here on out.”

Samantha G.

“Very comfortable to work with. Melani is always punctual. She is very caring and easy to communicate. I strongly recommend her.”

Vidhya R.

“Jack was fantastic with our dogs. Very kind and communicative. Our dogs loved him and we trusted him completely with him. Can’t wait to work with him again!”

Brooke W.

“Peyton is great. I was very fortunate to come across him when I was visiting Charlotte for two weeks. He came to my hotel and walk my dog every day while I was at work. He was always on time and left me messages every day. I would definitely recommend him. He provided a perfect no stress service. Thank you, Peyton. Pluto will miss you.”

Edward A.

“Hi Anthony-I appreciated you being available in short notice. And I’m grateful for the time you gave on Friday. I am going to cancel the bookings for this week though because the extra dog fee was more than I am used to paying for a 30 minute walk. It has nothing to do with you - you were great.”

About: Hi! I’m Ava & I’ve been caring for animals since I was very young. Over the years I’ve looked after cats, dogs, reptiles, rabbits, and fish for friends and family. While I do have experience with a variety of pets, cats are definitely my specialty! I absolutely adore them and I completely understand how important it is to respect their routines and boundaries! I’ve also cared for quite a few dogs, most frequently a Husky and a French Bulldog, but I’m comfortable with well-mannered dogs of all sizes. I’m not the best fit for dogs that tend to be more rowdy or have little training. I believe every pet deserves a sitter who is the right match for their needs, so if your dog tends to have those qualities, we may not be the best fit for each other. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to pet care. My goal is to build experience here while providing dependable, attentive care that gives pet parents complete peace of mind. I genuinely treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m very detail-oriented and believe consistency is incredibly important for pets. When I hire a pet sitter for my own animals, I provide detailed care instructions and hope they’ll be followed exactly. I promise to do the same for you, no matter how complicated! Feeding schedules, medications, litter boxes, clean ups, walks, playtime, just say the word and I’ll follow your instructions without cutting corners! I’d love the opportunity to talk with you and meet your pets to provide the kind of care I’d want for my own animals! I want to make sure you can enjoy your time away and put your mind at ease that your babies are in safe hands. I work full time during the week, for now. My current availability is M-F after 4:45 PM & Sat-Sun with open availability. I am open to evening (after 5pm) drop-ins every day & morning drop-ins on Saturdays & Sundays only. I can provide house sitting overnight care every day, but I will need to be at my full time weekday job from 8-5pm M-F. On weekend days I can spend more time with your pets if needed. While your away, I care for your pets just as much as my own. Please leave me detailed and clear instructions and I will follow them exactly as you wish! I will always make sure your pets get plenty of love and pets when I come visit, unless they prefer to stay in their own bubble :)

“Easy to communicate with and reliable on timing!”

About: I am so excited to help out with your fur babies! I grew up on a farm and both of my parents are veterinarians so our pets were always the most important part of our day! I have experience taking care of small, medium, and large (and extra large) dog breeds. I currently have my own 4 year old golden retriever and a 6 year old kitty. They are family to me! I currently have plenty of availability on the days reflected in my calendar during mornings, day time, and evenings. I look forward to caring for your pets. I will mainly be available for drop-ins and dog walks. I have a dog and a cat at home so I will not be housing any pets in my home. I am very clean, respectful and honest!
