About: I’ve had my own dog for 16 years. I’ve traveled to Texas on various occasions over the last 3 years to dog sit my daughter/son-in law’s 2 dogs. Enjoy taking dogs for walks to get them exercise. I’m a retired police officer that currently isn’t working so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and a lot of availability to care for your pets. I will take dogs for walks to get exercise if needed and hang out and show them love and attention while their family is away.
About: Animals have always been the biggest part of my life. I’ve owned and cared for pets for years, and I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone else. I’ve also pet sat for animals on and off, for over a decade. I've cared for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, from playful pups to sensitive or senior pets who need a little extra patience. I’m calm, gentle, reliable, and very tuned in to animal behavior. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, playtime, medication support, litter care, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll care for them with the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work remotely and have daytime flexibility. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding routines, playtime, and companionship during select mornings, afternoons, and weekends. I’m intentional about keeping my schedule clear and reliable once a booking is confirmed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medication needs, litter care, playtime, and any house specific routines. I’m respectful of each home and make sure pets have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of calm attention. I’m very mindful of safety, including secure doors, leashes, gates, and each pet’s comfort level with new people, other animals, and outdoor environments. I pay attention to body language and never force interaction. My goal is for pets to feel safe, cared for, and relaxed while their person is away.

“Debra was amazing! She gave me updates each walk and played with my pup during a couple long days at work. She was so nice and took great care of my puppy!!! Will definitely be looking to use her again!!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and even a pet lizard. Being around animals has always brought me joy, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or companionship, my goal is to help your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! Pet care fits really well into my weekly routine! It is something that I genuinely love doing and am very passionate about. My schedule is incredibly flexible which allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, and other care throughout the week as needed. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow their normal routines and pay close attention to their needs so they feel relaxed and at ease. I’m careful during walks and visits, and I always make sure pets are supervised and secure. My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners so you feel confident and worry-free while you’re away.

About: I have multi-dog household experience. There has always been at least two dogs in my house growing up, they’re my favorite animals. I have a chocolate Labrador named Whiskey, and a Schnoodle named Max. My chihuahua sadly passed away. I love to meet and have other dogs in my house. I’m comfortable administering oral medication if needed. I’ll send daily photo updates. I’m a stay at home mom so there’s always time to care and play with our furry kids. I wake up between 6-8am and go to bed by 10pm. When I need to leave the house to run errands, I don’t take longer than 3 hours at a time, so I make sure my pets are taken outside for potty and water breaks. There is a fenced area in the back of our house, and a big open area. I can take them out on a leash if needed or crate them if they’re not house trained.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats frequently since middle school, often in house sitting settings as well. I have had dogs throughout my entire life and have many friends with cats and have spent ample time with them. I have dealt with numerous animals with health issues or problems, including older pets and puppies. I understand the value of all the little unique things that are important to an owner to ensure their pet is taken care of, healthy, protected and loved to their standard. My family rescued a puppy this past year, and I took on a large responsibility in training and watching him during his more crucial stages. I have worked with and spent time around multiple rescued animals and understand the value of creating a comfortable environment from them and extra care to detail as they often have triggers from past experiences. I also work with puppies through a local breeder and have learned a lot about puppies and their development. I am a skilled problem solver, know how to communicate well and can recognize when over-communication is important. I manage my time well and feel that people in my life would consider me an overachiever in all things I do. I love animals and miss having them to interact with while at school; therefore, time spent with them is always valuable to me. I am currently a full-time student at Coastal Carolina University and play club volleyball. I have always worked and played a sport full time alongside school, and after transferring here recently, I have found myself with time for a job. With a schedule that makes my routine look different day by day I have found this would be a great fit as I can be flexible in working with clients. My weekends are free and I have lots of longer gaps throughout my day between classes which could be valuable to those who have to leave their pets for long periods of time. I'm from colorado so going home is not an option for me often and widens my availbilty. I have experience working in apartments, houses, ect of all kinds. Often my pet care includes house sitting which I am very comfortable with. I understand the value and basic decency of respect to others homes and possesions. The golden rule is a fundamental aspect of how I operate in my day to day and I would never do something I wouldnt want done to me, my pets or my home. I am a very honest person and would not hesitate to communicate anything that happens in my time with clients pets or their homes. Honesty is the best policy and valuable in maintinging proper care. I am a great problem solver and have lots of experience with handling conflict. I have grown up very indepentdent and am confident people in my life would consider me to be highly reliable and responsible. Positions as team captains, tutoring and as an RA speak to these traits.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 567 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Longwood. 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 Longwood. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Longwood 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 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 Longwood. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
