About: I have owned and taken care of animals for 20 + years, I can walk, entertain and provide daily care as needed I enjoy playing with the animals I am currently at home for most of the day and pretty flexible to be able to provide most pet care needed that is needed. I have a fenced back yard and we let our dog out side whenever she wants. I can work with clients based on what is needed
“Our German Shepherd, NellyFurtado, already LOVES her walks with Dana after only two walks. Nelly is thrilled to see Dana when she pulls in the driveway. Dana has an easy-going manner and is really competent at handling our big strong dog. Really happy that Dana is our dog walker!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid. I have experience with dogs from puppies to seniors . While your fur baby is in my care I’ll make sure to communicate and send pictures so that you can always know how your baby is doing. Right now I’m working part time so I’ll have more time on my schedule to do more walks. I set my own schedule so if your dog needs to be walked more than once I can accommodate that need. I’m always making sure that their collars, leash , and harnesses are secure before stepping out . I make sure to always have water on hand for those times they may become thirsty. I send photos while out as well while in my care. I also make sure to have all contact information and preferred vets on hand in case of an emergency .
About: We have experience with our own pets. We had my dog for 14 years before he passed. We have fostered through lifeline on many occasions. We enjoy furbabies but prefer the role of auntie 😉. We would love the opportunity to love on, play, and take of yours while you are away or if you just need some extra help. My children are 9, and 15. They are both very loving and kind to animals. We do accept multiple bookings at a time if they are within the same household. Also, you must provide a crate at this time. Crates are a safe place where they can go and feel comfortable. It can be a very draining experience for them being in a new place. This helps to put them at ease and protect our home when we leave at times. Please be on time. We have lives as well. We have had experiences when people show up 2 or 3 hours after drop off time or dont show up at all. If you say 8am we expect you to be here by 8am. We also understand that some things are just out of our control. Please be considerate and courteous. Thank you and we look forward to meeting you and furbabies 💗 Hubby works from home a few days a week and can be available throughout the day for walks and playing. I work outside of the home part time. Kids are in school half of the day. We have a fenced in yard. We also have a pool. We have it open april-september. Furbabies will be kept in living room and food kept by their crate. Crate must be provided for evening times, when we leave, and also when they just want to be alone.
About: Animals are my passion. I’ve spent many years caring for and loving on other’s animals as if they were my own. I have experience working in a doggy daycare, and I am currently working as a veterinary assistant! I am comfortable working with all pups and kitties, special needs or not! As I mentioned before, I am working as a full time vet assistant so my hours are slightly limited. I am free to visit your babies on my lunch break or after my shift I am comfortable handling all sorts of pups, varying from the young, spry ones, up and all the way to the sweet older pups who may need some more care.
About: Hi! My name is Sydney and I would love to be able to share my love for animals with you and your pet. I do other services such as wag for about 4 years. I also have done Rover before with my mom for 5 years prior. I know how to administer medication, due to the fact one of my own fur babies had diabetes. Very comfortable with senior care and their special ways as I had a baby that had doggy dementia. Also 3 years ago I got a puppy and he’s now 4 but this is to say I’ve raised and trained him (along side my mom) to sit, high five and be potty trained. I've had a dog since before I was even born, so I have a strong place in my heart for animals. I promise to be beyond patient and gentle with your pet because I would hope someone would do the same with mine. I also love to take pictures so l will always send you beautiful pictures of your baby while they are in my care. If you choose me, I would be so grateful to take care of your fur baby while you're away. Thank you! I currently only work from home and attend college online. Im basically always home and always here to take care of your baby. I can take them on walks 3 times a day and if I do anything else outside I always bring them with me downstairs so they can have some extra outside time in the backyard. I also have a fenced in backyard with tons of space so they can sniff and roam freely whenever they’d like. I allow all animals on my furniture so they are always either in my lap or right next to me on my bed! In your home I will abide by whatever rules you have set to ensure your pets safety and make sure you’re comfortable. And if I have any questions at all I’m not afraid to give you a quick call so we can make sure we’re on the same page In my own home, if you would like me to ever put your animal up I do have an extra room in my house where I can put them so they don’t have to be in a cage and they have some more space. I also turn on animal music so they aren’t just sitting in silence while I’m not there. But animals usually have free rein here as I love animals being near me as much as they love being near people!
“Chantal was wonderful! She walked our 3 dogs daily while we were out of town during the 4th of July. She even went so far as to make sure that they were safe during the night that fireworks went off. I will definitely ask her to help us in the near future!”
“Christine is great with our Australian Shepherd, Chewy, and cat, Archer. She is always on time for daily walks, sends updates/photos, and does a great job handling Chewy who can be rambunctious.”
“Rebecca helped us for a few weeks after I sprained my ankle. She is so kind and she developed such a special connection with our pup, Grayson. I will be contacting Rebecca again anytime we need assistance, Grayson won’t have it any other way!”
About: What sets me apart is my commitment to one-on-one attention. Unlike boarding facilities where care is divided among many animals, I focus exclusively on your pet in the environment where they feel safest. I excel at maintaining their exact routine to minimize stress and prevent the anxiety that often comes with travel or unfamiliar settings. I prioritize safety and household security. Beyond caring for your pet, I provide an extra layer of home security by being a regular presence while you're away. I am diligent about double-checking locks, gates, and following all 'house rules' strictly to ensure both your pet and your property are respected and secure. My daily routine is built around staying active and being outdoors. I dedicate my mid-morning and lunch hours specifically to dog walking and drop-in visits. Because I don't host pets in my own home, my full attention is on your pet during our scheduled time. I thrive on providing structured exercise and can easily adapt to your pet's preferred walking routes and energy levels to ensure they get the midday break they need. During 30 or 60-minute drop-in visits, I focus on high-quality engagement, including interactive play, backyard potty breaks, and refreshing food and water. For walks, I follow your preferred neighborhood routes to ensure your dog gets the specific exercise and mental stimulation they need. After every visit, I’ll send a Rover Card with photos and a detailed update so you know exactly how they’re doing.
“We really appreciate Anna for consistently being available when we need her. She really is super reliable. I trust her with my dogs and my dogs love it when Anna comes over to hang out with them! I highly recommend Anna!”
About: I'm a passionate dog lover with a heart for animals of all shapes and sizes. In my own furry family, I have one delightful dog and two charming cats, all of whom are not just pet-friendly but also people-friendly. They're always excited to make new friends! Beyond my personal pack, I offer dog walking and sitting services, and I'd love to use this platform to connect with and care for a diverse range of animals in my area. With experience in house sitting, dog sitting, boarding, and dog walking, I'm well-equipped to ensure your pets feel loved and well-cared-for in your absence. Having worked in an animal hospital in the Atlanta area, I'm familiar with handling dogs of all sizes in a medical environment. Your pets are welcome to share the bed and furniture, especially if they enjoy cuddling – after all, it's one of the best parts of having animal companions! I'm also open to caring for exotic animals. Throughout the years, I've successfully raised rats, bunnies, ferrets, and guinea pigs. Whether your pet has fur, feathers, or scales, I'm excited to meet and care for them. Looking forward to getting to know your wonderful animals and providing them with the love and attention they deserve. That's fantastic! Here's a revised version: Greetings, As a remote worker, I cherish the flexibility that comes with my schedule, allowing me to make the most of my free time during the day. One of my favorite ways to spend this time is by meeting and spending quality moments with various pets in the area. If you have a furry friend who could use some company or playtime during the day, I'd be delighted to connect. Whether it's a brisk walk, a game of fetch, or simply some good old-fashioned cuddles, I'm here to ensure your pet's day is a little brighter. I'm thrilled to offer a safe and welcoming haven for your furry family members. In my home, I have a secure fenced yard where my two dogs and two cats happily coexist, creating a friendly atmosphere for your precious pets. For those pups who love a splash, we have a pool available for their enjoyment, and I make it a point to sit outside, ensuring everyone is having a great time. Your fur baby will be in good company and can play to their heart's content. Feel free to reach out if you're seeking a warm and engaging place for your pet to stay. Looking forward to creating happy memories with your beloved companions!

Fallon was wonderful with Wolfy! She followed all of my instructions carefully, kept me updated, and made sure he was well taken care of. Wolfy was happy and comfortable when I got home. I really appreciate her help and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Maggie did a wonderful job in every way with our beloved Sadie. Maggie is a natural with animals and she connected with Sadie’s personality on day one. When Sadie sprained her leg during a walk, Maggie spent extra time to comfort her and take care of her, and kept us well informed. I think they both found a new friend in one another. We have complete trust in Maggie and give her our highest recommendation!

The average cost for Dog Walking in Rockbridge on Rover is $22.2 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 Rockbridge. 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 Rockbridge.

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 Rockbridge. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
