About: Hi! I'm Dana. Dogs, cats and other animals have been in my life since I was a kid (which was a looooong time ago!) I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats and a horse, and I have extremely high standards for who I trust with them; they're family, after all! I'm proud to provide the same level of care and concern to your animals too, whether it's on a walk or an overnight stay. My dogs have put me through the wringer! I have a ton of earned life experience dealing with behavioral issues, training, anxiety, injuries, medical care, and more. I regularly care for 14 equines and other farm animals on the 20 acre farm I live on in Allentown, NJ. Happy to provide references on request! I work remotely out of my home and have a flexible schedule. This makes it fairly easy to accommodate your busy life. With new clients I like to have a conversation about your needs and timeline, but can usually accommodate most requests. At present I'm not accepting pets for boarding at my residence, but that may change. I do accept requests for housesitting in the client's home as well as in-home visits for wellness checks, medications, walks and also just good old-fashioned dog-walking services. Training can also be provided upon request & discussion of needs.

About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover with dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I offer dog sitting in my safe and welcoming home in Oxford, NC, where your pup will get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and exercise. Whether your dog loves to run around, play fetch, or just relax and cuddle, I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for like family. I also send lots of pictures and updates so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Creating a fun, clean, and safe environment for every pet is my top priority, and I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and companionship throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I’m able to accommodate pets close to my area easily and make their care a priority while keeping a consistent, calm, and loving environment. Providing a safe environment for pets is very important to me. I have a large yard where dogs can run, play, and get plenty of exercise while always being supervised and monitored closely. Inside my home, I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and routines to make sure they stay happy, safe, and well cared for at all times.
About: I’m a pet mom of six full grown cats and two dogs. i’ve had them their entire lives. I rescued one of my cats from a ditch in a parking lot. I work early mornings so that I am available afternoons and evenings any day of the week. I am often in Wake Forest, Raleigh, Durham and Hillsborough. I have a fenced front and back yard so our pets just go out there to pee or poop. We feed our dogs and cats two times a day.
About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.
“Ken took care of our dog for 2.5 days and appreciate his personalized and professional service. His also communicates very well about our dog which gave us peace of mind during our vacation.”

About: I have extensive, hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals—including dogs, cats, rodents, ferrets, and large livestock. I’ve worked with everything from small pets to high-drive working dogs and large animals like horses and goats. Professionally, I’ve worked as a dog behaviorist and trainer, managing playgroups, training dogs of all temperaments, and safely handling high-energy or reactive dogs. I’m confident in my ability to read body language, prevent issues before they happen, and create a calm, structured environment. I have experience training puppies, working with senior dogs, and administering medications. I’m very attentive to changes in behavior or health and know how to respond quickly if something seems off. I also currently work as an Equine Specialist, where I assist with horse care, training, and overall health, including exposure to veterinary care practices. What sets me apart is my ability to handle a wide variety of animals and situations with confidence, patience, and strong awareness of safety and behavior. My schedule is very flexible. I currently work part-time, which allows me to adjust my availability easily around pet care. I’m able to accommodate daytime, evening, and weekend needs, and I’m reliable for both consistent routines and last-minute bookings. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and specific needs to provide the best care possible. In my home, I offer a safe and structured environment with access to a yard, long lines for safe outdoor time, and nearby areas for both private and public walks, including lake and town settings. I use appropriate, safe equipment such as harnesses, gentle leaders, and martingale collars when needed to ensure control and comfort. In clients’ homes, I follow all instructions carefully and maintain your pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I’m experienced in handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I always prioritize calm, controlled, and positive interactions.
“Rebecca was great with Penelope! She was always on time and super responsive and always sent pics during her visit. I will definitely be using her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a walker :)”
“Banjo LOVES his afternoon walks with Ashley! She picks him up and takes him for a walk around the neighborhood. He gets his exercise and gets to check out the neighborhood. We love using Rover and Ashley while we're at work. She sends us photos from their walks and Banjo's excited face says it all!”

About: I've had and cared for animals my entire life, mostly dogs as well as cats. From Shih tzus to Great Danes, puppies/kittens to senior pets- I'm comfortable with breeds of all shapes, sizes, and all life stages. Pets are family, and as a mother of 2 (humans :)) also, I understand the importance of being responsible for others' well-being. I would love to be there for your fur babies! Currently I'm working from home part time with a flexible schedule. I can be available during the day as well as evenings and weekends, depending on the day/week. Unfortunately I'm not able to offer overnight stays at this time. I am happy to walk/let out, play, feed, pet, and just show some love to your beloved pet(s). As someone who has dealt with sick pets, I'm comfortable administering medications, including ones that might require injections.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs of all kinds and ages. Senior and puppy/kitten pet care are part of my experience. From long walks, to fun games, to specialty foods and injury recovery, I’ve seen and done it all. Your pets will be well loved and cared for by me. Currently, I have a wide open schedule as I prepare for my next job in the next few months. I can do multiple walks a day or stay overnight with pets. I can offer caring for your pets in your own home and will utilize your resources appropriately and safely. My own home, if truly needed, is in a lovely neighborhood for nice walks, with a fenced in backyard. Currently, there are no other pets in the house.
About: Hi! I’m Cassidy, an experienced animal care professional with 5 years of hands-on experience working with dogs, cats, and animals of all personalities and needs. I worked as an Animal Shelter Attendant for several months and also worked as a Veterinary Assistant for over 4 and a half years, where I gained experience handling medications, monitoring health concerns, and providing compassionate care in fast-paced environments. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, medication administration, extra patience, or just lots of love and attention, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and experienced with pets of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! Able to sit for your pets any weekdays/Saturday, 7 AM-8PM. Overnight is situational but can potentially be worked in! I offer walking/bathing/nail trimming/administering medications (both oral and injectable)/playtime/and of course feeding. I care for my clients’ pets with the same attention, patience, and compassion that I would give my own animals. I make sure each pet’s routine is followed closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away.
About: I bring lifelong experience in canine care, beginning in childhood and continuing through the present. I currently care for five dogs and have extensive hands-on experience managing multiple dogs at once, including the care of three litters and several additional dogs in the past. I am available seven days a week with flexible hours. At this time, I am seeking a position that offers flexibility rather than a full-time commitment, and I am eager to pursue work that aligns with my experience and interests. If needed, I am able to safely crate your dog or place them in a designated area. I am experienced in handling dogs that are uncomfortable walking on a leash and can manage them calmly and confidently. I also ensure that all basic needs are met before departure, including providing food and fresh water.
About: I have cared for my own personal pets as well as friend’s and family’s pets. I have enjoyed every minute of it. I walk, groom, feed, and bathe when needed. I am a graduate student at NCCU in Durham so I don’t have time for a full time position but Rover allows me to have the flexibility to do pet sitting when possible. Weekends are my most available time and I will also have time in between my clinicals and my classes that I can do walks or drop in visits! I have always been an animal lover, I have grown up in a household that has always had multiple pets at a time. My pets get my full attention and affection at al times when I am home! They bring me so much joy and I would love some more fur babies to love on with all of the responsibility of caring for the 24/7!
About: I have had dogs from 30lbs to 150 lbs and I have loved them all! In my free time I volunteer hiking with dogs at a local animal shelter. And spend the rest of the time spoiling my two fur babies at home. I work remote and have a flexible schedule that can accommodate a wide range of needs during the weekdays as well as on the weekends. My two fur babies are trained to listen off leash, but love to go for walks on leash. One is a couch potatoes that can be trusted and one a wild puppy that is crate trained. So I am used to a wide range of care needs.

“Marissa did a great job with my crazy golden retriever, Huck! She was very prompt and did a great job with him despite the fact that he can be a bit of a puller. She was very accommodating and willing to take him on a jog because he has so much energy!”

“Brandon has been an incredible dog walker, and I can't recommend him highly enough. He is consistently reliable, always on time, and extremely communicative, which gives us great peace of mind. It's clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with, and we always know our pup is in great hands. Brandon's professionalism and dependability make him truly exceptional. We are so grateful to have found him!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was little, ranging from reptiles all the way to several dogs. I currently have 3 dogs that I love with all my heart so I’ll always have the best interest for your loved fur friends. I live in upper westside, Atlanta and I am currently in chiropractic school with a flexible schedule. When you reach out we can negotiate the best available time slots. I follow all instructions regarding your fur friend. Whether or not you would like them caged or not or even walked/fed a certain way. Just let me know and you got it.

Lexie is awesome! She came to meet our pup before their first walk and was super thorough. She made sure she knew our routines and was so great with Skip, even with all of his puppy energy. He really loved her and we would absolutely ask her to help out again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Oxford on Rover is $16.05 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Oxford. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Oxford.

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 Oxford. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
