About: I have worked with animals my whole life. I absolutely adore animals, any animals! I use to work with my aunt at the clinic she works at helping her care, feed, water, clean and play with the animals that would board there. I also help her with the animals that she fosters. I do lots of research on animals and learn how to handle them and care for them. I am pretty acknowledged with animals. I know different types of breeds and their behaviors and the care they need. I would be an awesome candidate to care for your animals because I would love and treat them as my own and put their needs above mine, it would be a dream to care for any and all of your animals! Please don't hesitate to ask me anything! I am available anytime to help you and your animals! I absolutely love caring for animals and it’s all I want to do! I have a pretty flexible schedule at the moment. I live in an apartment that is fenced in and on the bottom floor so your pet will be very safe! I do home visits as well!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly love caring for them like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from energetic pups who need plenty of playtime to older dogs who prefer a little extra patience and attention. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, basic routines, and lots of love and cuddles. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! I recently stepped away from the corporate world to take a break and enjoy a slower pace of life, which means I have very open and flexible availability! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and overnight stays. I’d love to spend some of that extra time caring for your pups! I have a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of room for running, playing, and exploring, plus a pool if your pup enjoys swimming! I also have three sweet, friendly dogs who love having new friends to play with. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.

About: I have been around many animals throughout my whole life growing up. I enjoy getting to know every animal and understanding how they are emotionally. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I recently graduated and have a lot of free time and a flexible schedule. I have experience caring for my own dog, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure he feels comfortable and cared for. I enjoy being around dogs and giving them attention, so dog sitting is something I would be happy to make part of my daily routine. Whether at my place or yours, pet care is all about making them comfy and safe! At my home, I stick to their routine for feeding and walks, plus tons of playtime. If I'm at your place, I follow your lead, ensuring your pet feels secure and loved while you're away.

About: Hello! My name is Flor, caring and advocating for animals is my passion. Currently, my hubs and I live with 6 furrkids (2 senior Great Pyrs, and 4 cats) and foster for 3 different rescue groups when able! My experience ranges from caring for elderly dogs needing meds and fluids, cats of all ages, and puppies, to farm sitting over 30 chickens/guineas, goats, llamas, and pigs. If you have never legged a llama with a prosthesis, you have not lived! I also have experience in feeding and medicating neonatal kittens, as well as younger kittens that have been orphaned. I would love to be part of your pet's comfort while you are not home, and will always send a plethora of pictures to keep your mind at ease. Thanks for reading! And tell your animals I said hi :) Please be aware that anything over 25 miles of distance that is not overnight stay, will include gas/mileage charges. I work from home, which means I can easily step away from my laptop and either go check on your pets, or stay at your home and be attentive to their needs at all times. It all depends on what your and your pet's level of comfort and needs are. I want to know routines and habits you have established with your pets, to make sure the transition to being cared for by someone new is as smooth and not stressful as possible. For example: my furkids have breakfast and dinner times, scheduled walks, meds that need giving, as well as every night brushing to unwind. Each animal and owner are different though, and that is what I want to learn so we can all be safe and comfortable!

About: I got a dog just recently and I love her as if she's my own daughter. I am a better person because of her, and I am so glad that I rescued her and gave her a home with so much love and attention. I do a lot of work at home stuff on my PC as well as a lot of Doordash, Instacart, etc. when I am not busy at home. I am very flexible and care about giving humans and animals a sense of safety when dealing with me. I tell them and show them what I do as well as have an open conversation about everything upfront. I honestly like getting to know people first before doing business.

About: I have extensive experience with pets from doggy daycares to grooming shops to vet clinics. I have been pet sitting and grooming for the last 10 years. My home is basically for my furr babies. They're allowed on the furniture even though they have 5 of their own beds and 4 little hidey houses. They literally have over 100 toys, all kinds, that they are willing to share with any pup they welcome in here. The house is theirs, I just live here and clean up after them. I work from home and I have classes that are mostly online so, I am home basically all day. I'll be able to watch the dogs all day and I let them go outside about every hour or so to go potty. I have a fenced in yard with a few chickens in the yard. I have an above ground pool with a floating doggy dock to make it easy for them to get out of the pool if they ever jump in but its usually closed off unless it is being actively used. I have 2 friendly shih tzu sisters that are spoiled rotten and 2 little kittens that love playing with the dogs. Dogs can go on all furniture and there are plenty of toys to play with. There are a bunch of dog beds and comfy spots for them to chill inside.

I have roommates that can help me board your pets if needed to for an emergency. Don’t mind working something out! I have a fenced in yard so they’ll be able to go to the restroom on their own. I also have a dog they is super friendly and will keep them company. I show compassion and love to make them feel loved while the owner(s) are gone.

About: I’ve had animals since I was 10 years old ranging from, dogs, fish, cats, chickens all kinds. I would love to take care of your fur babies and help you out! I can walk any animal weekdays after 6 pm and on the weekends, I can house animals throughout the week but I do have a 9-6 so they will be alone with my own animals during the day except on the weekends I will devote all the special time each animal needs whether that is giving extra play time for the higher energy walks or extra couch time for those home bodies. I have a big backyard completely fenced in.

About: As the daughter of a vet tech, I not only have personal pet care experience, but also a bit of medical experience as well. I have experience in administering medication, mild grooming, and recognizing illness. I have also had pets my entire life, creating a lifetime of experience. I would say animals are my specialty. I have my own business and choose my hours, so I can fit pet care in just fine. I’m allocating time specifically for the very necessary care of pets that would benefit from my care and skill. I will follow instructions for your fur baby’s care to a tee. I understand how important certain routines are for pets, and I’ll do whatever is necessary to maintain your pet’s comfort and health.

About: I’ve always had a huge love for dogs and truly believe they deserve all the love, attention, and affection in the world! I had a dog of my own who passed away a couple of years ago, and I still miss having that special companionship in my life. I’m ready to share that love with another pup and treat yours like my own! Whether it’s going on walks, playing, cuddling on the couch, or simply keeping your dog company, I want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and so loved while you’re away. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I would treat your fur baby with the same care and affection I would want someone to give my own. I can’t wait to meet your pup and give them lots of love! 🐾❤️ I work from home, which gives me some flexibility throughout the day to give your pup extra love and attention! I have a lunch break when I can take dogs out for a walk or potty break, and I’m off work at 5 p.m., so I can head straight out for an evening walk or spend time with your dog at home. I love being active and getting outside, so having a furry friend to join me would make my day even better! My goal is to make sure your pup feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I have a fenced-in backyard where your pup can safely play, explore, and get some fresh air! I also live in a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood with great walking areas, perfect for getting outside and enjoying some exercise. Whether your dog loves running around in the backyard, going on walks, or relaxing at home, I want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved during their stay!

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! Although I’m new to Rover, I have years of personal experience caring for pets and I’m committed to providing safe, loving care and clear communication. I am currently a college student, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent and reliable pet care. I am able to plan my classes and free time around pet visits, walks, and overnight stays to make sure each pet gets the attention they need. I’m available on weekdays between classes as well as evenings and weekends, and I prioritize being punctual, dependable, and fully present when caring for animals. My schedule gives me the ability to stay organized while still giving pets plenty of care, attention, and companionship. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and cared for. I make sure they have regular walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, crate time if needed, and any specific instructions from the owner. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel secure, loved, and stress-free while staying with me.

About: Pet sitting has been part of my life for over 5 years, and it's never stopped feeling like a joy rather than a job. I work from home, so your pet isn't just "watched" they're part of my day, every day. I only host one dog or cat at a time typically, which means no competing for attention, no chaotic multi-pet households, just consistent one-on-one care in a calm environment. I'm based in Oak Cliff/Bishop Arts, and my days revolve around walks, playtime, and a lot of couch time together. Every pet has their own personality and routine, and I make it a priority to learn both quickly whether that's a specific feeding schedule, anxiety around thunderstorms, or just knowing when they want space versus cuddles. If you're looking for a sitter who treats your pet like a guest in their home rather than a job to get through, I'd love to meet you both. Since I work from home, pet care isn't squeezed into gaps in my day it is my day. Mornings usually start with a walk or playtime before I settle into work, with regular breaks throughout the day for cuddles, bathroom breaks, or just checking in. Because I only host one pet at a time, there's no juggling multiple schedules your pet gets consistent attention from morning to night, not just whenever I have a free moment. In my home, your pet has the run of a calm, comfortable space not a crate in a back room. They're free to roam and get cozy on the furniture, just like they would at home. Since I only host one pet at a time, there's no competing for space, toys, or attention. I keep to your pet's normal routine as closely as possible (feeding times, walk schedule, sleeping arrangements) so the visit feels less like a disruption and more like a home away from home.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Oak Ridge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 2,199 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 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 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 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 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 Oak Ridge. On Rover:

  • 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
