Dog Walkers in Pinehurst, NC

“Such a relief finding such a great sitter! We know our dog is in good hands getting exercise, play time, and socialization- and always detailed notes and pictures how the day was. Found our go-to!”

About: Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve spent time looking after pets for friends, family, and neighbors—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I pay close attention to their personalities and needs so they feel right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I build my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I ensure each pet receives consistent attention, exercise, and care. I keep my schedule organized so I can be reliable and fully present for every visit. I care for pets in their own home where they feel safest and most relaxed. I stick to their usual routine—meals, walks, playtime, and downtime—so nothing feels disrupted while you’re away. I spend quality time with each pet, not just quick visits, and always make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved. I also keep you updated so you have peace of mind.

“Erin was able to respond quickly to my last minute request. She worked well with my very excitable lab, and he was ready to rest when he came back. Very thankful!”

“Emetals stepped in on very short notice when my regular dog walker had an emergency, and she was amazing. She was incredibly responsive, warm, and worked with me to find the best schedule for my 7 month old puppy. What stood out most was how happy and relaxed my pup was when I got home. This tells me she felt comfortable and well cared for. That alone says everything to me about the care Emerald provided. I’d absolutely trust her with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely caring.”

“Kelly did an outstanding job walking Colt for me on Thursday and Friday mornings this week while my regular dog walker Tara was out of town visiting her daughter at college in Florida. Kelly was right on time every day and she bonded quickly with Colt and she really impressed Tara also when she came over a couple of weeks ago for a meet and greet and walked the route with Tara and Colt. Kelly walked Colt over 2 miles each morning in an hour very consistent with his walks with Tara and myself when I walk him on the weekends. She responded promptly to my request when I first contacted her and Kelly definitely exceeded my expectations!! She is very friendly and courteous and made me feel confident and completely at ease with walking Colt and I’m so glad that she is very physically fit to give Colt great exercise walking in the woods and around the two horse pastures in the early mornings when Colt is feeling his best and most active. I will definitely want and need her assistance again very soon in the near future since Tara travels out of state fairly often to visit her family.”

“We are so glad we found Hailee on Rover! Max warmed up to her right away and seemed very happy from the pictures on the walk! Will definitely be booking again!”

About: Hi there! With years of hands-on experience caring for puppies, special needs pets, and senior fur babies, I understand the extra attention and care they require. My boyfriend works in the golf industry so we were in AZ (TPC Scottsdale), MI (Arcadia bluffs), and now we have officially relocated to the lovely Pinehurst NC and ready to start making connections and taking care of the local fur children! Prior to AZ I worked with Buckeye Bulldog Rescue in Ohio, where I fostered multiple dogs and participated in an incredible rescue mission to China, successfully bringing bulldogs back to safety. I’m an active person who can tailor your dog’s experience to their needs and preferences. Whether it’s a hike on a scenic trail or simply staying cozy at home, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. As a former Rover client, I know how nerve wrecking it can be to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care. I was very particular about who I trusted, and I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I watch. You can expect regular updates with unlimited photos and videos, so you’ll always feel connected while you’re away. My goal is to provide a stress-free, safe, and peaceful environment for your pet, giving you peace of mind. Let’s work together to make sure they get everything they need while you’re away! I currently work full time remote during the work week in Pinehurst/Aberdeen NC area but it is very flexible to allow time for morning and afternoon walks, play time, and cuddles! I work in the main living area allowing me to be fully available for any needs! We allow our fur children on the couch as well as the bed but we can adjust depending if the owner prefers crated or other directions. We do have a 2 year old English bulldog female so we would ideally love to meet prior to make sure they are comfortable together. She absolutely loves dogs and people but we also have to make sure she is safe so quick meetup prior is ideal.

“Tara was so sweet and professional during our meet and greet! Luna loved her from the start! She was very flexible with my schedule and gave me very detailed updates on how my girl was doing during her walk and sent great pictures of her having a great time. Highly recommend!”

Madeleine A.

“I would highly recommend Izzy to anyone looking for care for their pup! She gave amazing updates during her time with my dog and he had the happiest look on his face in every pic she shared!!”

“Melissa has been taking very good care of my pug and goes above and beyond in what she does. I feel safe with her walking my dog and entering and exiting my home. I couldn't reccomend her enough.”

Allen

“Ashley was fantastic. She is punctual, friendly and truly loves what she does. I have her booked for weekly appointments with my pup. I cannot recommend her enough.”

Cory C.

“Tawny has been great. She really pays attention to our dogs needs: Tawny is dependable and responsible.”

Debbie H.

“Julia has been terrific - she is great with Winston and he really likes her. He gets very excited to see her and comes back from his walks tired and happy. Communication has been very easy - Julia is a joy to work with and I gets my highest recommendation.”

Carolyn R.

“I recently adopted Tucker and he is very shy around new people. Before the first walk, Shannon took the time to sit with him and get Tucker comfortable with her. After that, he looked forward to the daily walk. I will definitely use Shannon again.”

About: **Unfortunately due to the app taking 20% of my pay, I’ve had to increase my pricing. Happy to work around this and discuss further** I've had at least 10 years of dog sitting experience, however I grew up with animals of all sorts in my family. From reptiles, small animals, cats and dogs, I’ve cared for them all. I am definitely an animal lover, and will treat your pets as my own for the time they'll be with us! I'm not only responsible, and trustworthy, but I am available full time and have room for a flexible schedule. I am currently unemployed aside from rover, so I am available for frequent walks and play time. If you have any further questions, I am always open to meeting clients prior to them booking a service with me. Thank you ! I will spend a lot of time with them, making sure they’re comfortable and happy. I’m home all day since I go to school online, so I have plenty of time to watch and spend time with them. I love to go for long walks with the dogs, and take them to the local dog park to play (only if approved by owner) I treat my clients pet as if they’re my own, with care, attention and lots of love. I make sure they’re comfortable, and if they’re shy I give them the time and space to adjust. I have had experience with dogs and cats with many different personalities. You can trust that they will be taken care of & loved.

“Lesley did a wonderful job walking my dogs while I was away at work. She was timely and communicated well with me. I felt my dogs were well cared for. I would recommend Lesley to anyone needing dog walking services. Would definitely book her again in the future!”

About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and truly love caring for them. I’ve worked with horses since I was 8 years old and have cared for dogs since I was 16. I’m experienced with animals of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving extra attention and affection, I treat every pet like family! I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I’m available most weekdays and have open availability on many weekends. I love spending time with animals, making sure they get attention, exercise, and lots of care while you’re away. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment for every pet in my care. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crating if needed, and giving pets lots of attention and comfort. I also make sure pets stay on their normal routine so they feel safe and stress-free while their owners are away.

About: I was born and raised with dogs, cats, birds, and horses. I’ve never known a time in my life without animals! From farm animals to household pets, I’ve cared for them all. I’m a big proponent of positive reinforcement and prioritize gentle care and minimal stress for your pet. I’m comfortable with complex medical needs, seniors, and "quirky" pets. I’m happy to adhere to routines and training for continuity. I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care that I treat my own ❤️ I’m doing animal care full time at the moment so I have a flexible schedule. I can work in midday visits, late night check ins, and multiple visits. Whatever works best for you! I’m happy to take your pup on neighborhood walks, play in the yard, or go on outings to Sniffspots or parks. I can drop in and check on your cats or spend time doing enrichment activities. I’ll treat your home with respect as I would my own and can take care of house sitting chores while you’re out of town. At my home, I have a large fenced yard and three very playful dogs. A large greenway runs through my neighborhood and is shaded for year round walks. I can crate your pup separately as needed.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve volunteered with shelters and own three of my own for the last 10 years. I’m currently working from home and hoping to get out of the house for a bit by doing drop in visits or dog walks. I’m available to board dogs as well so long as any furry guest gets along with the dogs already in the house. I’m comfortable administering medication so long as instructions are given. I’m certified in canine CPR. Im happy to cater to the needs of your dog and follow any instructions you provide. As im working from home, im available nearly all the time except for a few virtual meetings during the week. Our normal routine is a short walk in the morning, they hang out with me while I work, maybe a walk or a game at lunch, more work from home, then free in the evening for movie nights/parks/bite to eat somewhere dog friendly. I have a fenced yard with a doggy door to the back. I have also converted my office into a dog room with space for extra crate if that’s what is preferred. Animals are allowed on furniture at the owners discretion. I recognize all owners do things a bit differently and I know how worrisome it can be to leave them with a stranger so I want to put your mind at ease by conforming my care to how you prefer.

“I am so grateful for Kris! She is so kind and accommodating. Our dogs are a little high maintenance (one has some behavioral issues and the other has special needs) and she was more than happy to take care of them. In the past when we’ve had a poor experience with other walkers my dogs are stressed when I get home. Every time Kris has taken care of my dogs they seem so calm and content! She leaves detailed notes about the visit and sends lots of pictures, which I appreciate. She also stopped by to meet them beforehand to make sure it was a good fit. I would 100% recommend her services and will continue to book with her!”
