About: I have had dogs all my life. As a RVT rest assured they will be taken care of while you are gone! I’m happy to exercise and entertain them while you are gone! I do work full time but can offer drop in services before and after work, as well as my lunch break. I am available any day of the week! I am a trained veterinary professional and feel comfortable with most set ups people have. I do not offer in home boarding or overnights. I am happy to work with the clients routine.

About: I grew up with having a dog around the house, so I have always loved being around pets. The last two summers I have pet sat for families while they were on vacation. Some of the dogs I have taken care of have had medical needs, so I am able to give dogs medication if needed. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I look forward to working and taking care of your pet! During the summer I have more availability outside of when I am on vacation. For house sitting services, I am happy to provide overnight care for your pet. There will be times I will leave the home to run errands, go to work, family time and etc. But I will make sure that your pet’s routine is kept in tact and that they get all the snuggles and love they need. I am a full time teacher so once the school year starts my availability will change. I will not be able to provide pet care in my home. But I can provide pet care in a clients home. I am able to provide walks, feed your pet, provide snuggles, and medication if needed. I will ensure the client home stays clean if I am booked for overnight pet care. If it is too hot outside I may limit the time for the walk. I will also bring a water bottle with a bowl to make sure your dog does not overheat.

About: I got my first dog when I was 11 but as soon as I moved out I got my own fur baby, Jax! He is a black lab, chow chow, and Chinese Shar-pei mix (yes I did the genetics test, I had to!). He is the light of my life. I also have a rescue named Roo who I adore. This is when I realized the value and love pets bring to our life. I have also worked on horse farms and have cared for reptiles! I know how to handle emergencies and dogs with specific needs. I hope to meet your fur baby some time whether it be for a walk or a drop in visit! Hope to hear from you soon! I work from home so I’m very flexible, especially if you’re close, I can come in my lunch break or before or after work. I have my own vehicle as well. I’m going to follow your care plan as you give it to me so I can care for them as close to you as possible. Whether that involves training, crates, whatever it is, I’m here to back up the care you see fit for your fur baby!

About: With 17 years of dedicated experience in dog care, I am the proud owner of three canine companions – one over 14 years old and two between 1-2 years old. Specializing in comprehensive care for senior dogs, I prioritize their well-being, and I am equally adept at managing the exuberance of high-energy dogs. Ensuring a hygienic and comfortable environment is a commitment I extend to all dogs in my care, with particular attention to the unique needs of senior dogs, including accidents, diaper changes, and puppy pad adjustments. My comfort level extends to administering medications, accommodating special diets, handling leash-pulling, and caring for larger breeds. I possess valuable knowledge in addressing the specific requirements of elderly dogs, demonstrating proficiency in managing issues like accidents, diaper usage, and the regular changing of puppy pads. I derive immense joy from engaging dogs in activities that balance their mood and energy levels, whether it's long walks, runs, or interactive play. When entrusted with a dog's care, I treat them as if they were my own, prioritizing their comfort, health, and happiness. Confident in my ability to discern any signs of discomfort or distress, I am vigilant as a pet owner and can readily identify when a dog requires assistance. I am fully adaptable and committed to following any special requests or specific needs for the pups under my care. While I may be new to professional dog sitting, my enthusiasm and passion for dogs make me eager to embark on this exciting journey. Rest assured, your furry companions will be in caring and capable hands under my watch. I can tailor the walks or check-ins to accommodate your schedule. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to adjust to the time that suits you best. In my dedicated care environment, safety, trust, and a comfortable setting are paramount for both my canine companions and future clients' dogs. With a senior dog and two energetic youngsters, my fenced-in backyard provides a secure space for them to play and explore. I understand the importance of addressing unique challenges, such as leash aggression, and have diligently worked with my dog to overcome it. I prioritize clear communication, always ensuring others are aware when encountering another dog. This proactive approach reflects my commitment to the safety and well-being of all dogs involved, fostering an environment where trust and harmony thrive.

About: Family and friends always compliment me on how good I am with pets. This is mostly because I grew up with every pet you can think of. I’m reliable and stay on schedule and make sure everything is clean and safe. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I WFH, so I have plenty on time on my hands for check ins. Mornings are a bit iffy depending on the time but other than that I’m available. I make sure they aren’t getting into anything that they aren’t suppose to, I make sure all pets are safe and well taken care of. Plus, I love to play with playful/friendly pets.

About: I’ve raised 2 dogs of my own since they were puppies and one is now a senior. I have received many compliments of being the best dog mom but I am also a very attentive and responsible pet sitter. I have taken care of cats and dogs alike and I truly love and care for them like they are my own. I have plenty of time to care for your pets during the day or evening. I am more of a morning person for sure but I am very flexible. I have a fenced in front and back yard which makes it easy to let dogs outside. I am also very active so walking or running is no problem.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for approximately 8 years, beginning in middle school when I started helping my mom care for pets in our community. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs, cats, and other household pets with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs. I provide dependable, loving care and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, feeding, administering basic medications, playtime, or overnight stays, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away from home. 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule and am able to accommodate pet care visits throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on the day. I am available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting, and I do my best to adjust my schedule with advance notice when needed. I am reliable, consistent, and always communicate clearly about my availability so pet parents know what to expect. environment in every visit. I always follow each pet’s routine closely and make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while their owner is away. I pay close attention to detail, keep doors and entry points secure, and treat every home with respect. I also make sure pets are supervised during visits and receive patient, attentive care based on their individual needs and personality. My goal is to create a safe and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.

About: since the age of fourteen i’ve walked all sorts of dogs around my neighborhood, but before i could talk, i was surrounded by large furry friends! at this moment my family and i take care of our 4 crazy fur babies! lucy, sparky, penny, and bear! I grew up walking, loving, and cleaning up after our dogs! Being a dog owner at such a young age taught me the severity of pet responsibility and time management! because i am a college student at high point university i have classes in the morning and late afternoon, but i have a reliable car and have at least two hours between either class. so i am very flexible!! in our gated community for retired military, our pups get to play in a fenced in back yard but we love to slip on their harness and take them on 2 separate 45 min walks morning and night! you can say the are definitely pooped by the end of the night

FAQs for Dog Walking - Oakboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Oakboro is $37 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $44 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 November 2026, there are 3,852 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Oakboro. 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 Oakboro. 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 Oakboro 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 Oakboro. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
