About: I’ve had my dog for almost 7 years and now have two dogs. I grew up with dogs and they are my passion. Im a nurse getting my masters and have some time to take care of other fur babies. I am committed to taking care of all types of dogs of all ages. I currently have some weeks off of clinical rotations so I am home most of the time. Afterwards I will be gone about 2x a week. I live in an apartment, but I take my dogs out on regular walks every few hours. I do not crate train my dogs and they are allowed to go on furniture.

About: Hi! As a young kid I used to take my neighbors dog for walks and clean up after him. I got my beloved calico cat at age 12 took care of her while I lived at home. For the past six years I have often taken care of my best friend’s dog (my dog nephew). I watch him while she and her family are on vacation, and recently have tried to take him on near daily walks. I work remotely from home, and my schedule is flexible so I have time throughout the day to schedule pet care appointments during work breaks. I have a flexible schedule, and a vehicle to get myself to the location to provide pet care throughout the day. I love animals and am excited to meet your pet!

About: Like a lot of people, I’ve had dogs my whole life. Pomeranians, Rottweilers, Golden Retrievers, Cane Corsos and now I have my English Bulldog, Puck, who is my whole world. I know what it’s like to feel nervous about my dog being taken care of by someone new, and I never want anyone to feel that way when they book with me! I’m a student, so I’m available during hours many people usually work. I’m also very free on weekends, so if you take a quick trip I can stop by. I always do what the pet parent asks. If your dog likes walks short or long, I can do that. I will make sure everything you want and need is taken care of regarding your furry friend, and if there’s any special requests just let me know when booking!

Caitlin D.
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Caitlin — she has been an absolute godsend for both me and my dog! She walks Bentley every single day and treats him like her own. From putting ice in his water bowl on hot days to surprising him with extra toys “just because,” she constantly goes above and beyond in every way imaginable. Her communication is outstanding — I get detailed updates after every walk, often with adorable photos and thoughtful notes that show just how much she pays attention to his behavior, mood, and even his little quirks. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs and takes great pride in what she does. Beyond her incredible care for my dog, she’s just a truly kind, responsible, and thoughtful person. I trust her completely and feel so lucky to have found her. If you're looking for someone who will love your dog as much as you do — and then some — look no further. She’s the best there is!”

I have even seen her help one of her dogs give birth and raise the puppies. Your dog will be in amazing hands with Mikayla and I know they will love each other!”

Dog Walking FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.
Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in River Run.
You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.
Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.
We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
