“I’m so grateful for Christina. Eli is very comfortable with her and that makes me happy. I’m able again to be away from home longer than a few hours. Christina sent me pictures and updates, she’s trustworthy and experienced with reactive dogs like mine. Very thankful. 😌”

About: pets are family. I have experience caring for large dogs and know the importance of patience, consistency, and making sure every dog feels safe and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra attention and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their individual needs. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive. I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own, providing updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: make sure your pet is happy, exercised, and well cared for every time we’re together. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m used to regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze into my day—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and already do every day. My schedule allows me to be dependable and consistent, and I understand how important it is for dogs to maintain their normal routine. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or extended care, I’ll make sure your pet receives the same level of attention and care that I give my own dogs. When caring for pets, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping them on their normal routine as much as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, while keeping owners updated with messages and photos. Because every pet has a different personality and comfort level, I take the time to get to know them and adjust my approach accordingly. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a slower pace and extra affection, I’ll make sure they receive the care that’s best for them. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.

About: As a pet owner for more than 35 years, I understand that pets are family. I have experience caring for large-breed dogs as well as dogs that require medication and special medical attention. My favorite pastime is dog walking, and I genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I am dependable, patient, and committed to providing safe, loving care so pet owners can feel confident their furry family members are in good hands. I have been a Special Education Teacher for the past 26 years and am currently enjoying my summer break from school. With a flexible summer schedule, I am available for dog walking and pet care throughout the week. Dog walking has always been one of my favorite pastimes, and I’m excited to spend my free time doing something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your dog needs a daily walk, exercise, companionship, or extra attention while you’re away, I am reliable, responsible, and ready to help. While I currently share my home with one beloved cat, I have been a dog owner for most of my adult life. After losing my three dogs, I decided not to get another dog right away, but I still deeply miss the companionship and joy that dogs bring to everyday life. I have always been the kind of dog mom who made my dogs a priority. When I had dogs, I walked them before work every morning, came home during my lunch break to take them out again since I worked less than a mile from home, and then enjoyed another walk with them in the evening. My yard is fully fenced, providing a safe space for play and exercise, but I have always believed that dogs need more than just a backyard—they need walks, attention, and quality time with their people. Caring for dogs has never felt like a chore to me; it’s something I truly enjoy. Becoming a Rover walker gives me the opportunity to spend time with dogs again while helping other pet owners ensure their furry family members receive the love, exercise, and attention they deserve. 🐾

About: I have taken care of a wide variety of pets (dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, rodents) my entire life, and currently have two pugs named Cookie and Waffles. I have also worked in a doggy daycare. I am comfortable providing all kinds of care including walking, grooming, watching, feeding, giving medication, and more. I currently am working per diem as a nurse aid, I just finished school and will hopefully be starting my first nursing job in a couple-few months. For now I have the summer open while I am studying and applying to jobs. That being said, my schedule is very flexible and I would be happy to include caring for your pet into it! I currently cannot care for additional pets in my home as I live with others. However, I am open to caring for pets in a clients home. I would like as informative and detailed a description of how clients would like their pets cared for, and plan to follow those instructions completely. I have experience with a variety of pets from dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, and birds, ranging from young to old. I have the most experience with dogs. I worked at a dog daycare for a few months, so I am familiar with the personalities and care of different breeds. My dogs (Cookie and Waffles) have both had health issues in the past, so I have experience with giving oral medication. I also have basic grooming experience, mostly bathing, ear/face care, and nails (if pet allows, my girls unfortunately need a whole team to get their nails done).

About: Hi! My name is Courtney and I have always been known as the animal girl/lady and have worked in just about every part of the pet care industry with pride. I am a former master groomer as well as canine trainer, have worked with thousands of dogs regardless of breed, age, or background and have never met a dog, cat or creature that did not love me as much as I do them❤️ From trimming nails to snuggling up with your pup at night, if you choose me to care for your animals, they become my own and part of my family❤️ when applicable, I also do incorporate training into regular walks and drop ins to make life a more pleasant experience for both our furry family members and us humans! I am also well versed in other species from big to small and am meticulous in my care of all creatures. As a trainer and handler I have also cared for dogs during show days at venues, prepped dogs for the show ring and taken dogs to canine sporting events as well as lessons. Lastly, I’m always quick to snap a great photo of a pup, cat or our other family members looking their best, and always love a good impromptu photoshoot to send you! Overall, I am here to support you and your animals to have and be the best you can be as a team, and look great doing it! I currently have full availability to bring any animals into the Courtney’s Cuddles and Care Family❤️ I work from home making dog apparel and service dog gear, so always open for communication and a drop in! I am always happy to go over each individual pets needs and routines and follow them meticulously, as well as incorporate training and/or grooming as needed! Every animal I have the pleasure of caring for becomes a part of my family and is treated like my own. My service dog, Tsunami, is also an extremely well trained, very neutral dog that I am happy to introduce to others that need friends! She is a rough collie, or as many people recognize, a lassie dog!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Oak Ridge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Oak Ridge is $28 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $39 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 2,274 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Oak Ridge. 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 Oak Ridge. 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 Oak Ridge 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 Oak Ridge. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 .

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.
