“Jaidyn was so sweet, patient and thoughtful with our basset hound Phoebe. She walked her longer than expected and cared for her just as we would. We can’t recommend Jaidyn enough!”
“Anne is very reliable and I always come home to a happy pup. I hesitate to put a positive review because I’d like to have her all for myself but she deserves it!”
“Tara is great- super reliable and very caring. She is a huge dog lover and she took time to get to know my dog and what she needs! She is very concerned for the animals she watches, and I felt completely comfortable that my dog was in good hands every day!”
About: I’ve taken care of my cat ever since I was born (he’s 20) and I have 2 childhood dogs at home that I walked and fed every day, and now one crazy Pitbull of my own! I am a high school teacher and off for the summer so I will have plenty of time to care for your cats and dogs! I have a 2 year old pitbull who used to jump/nibbled so I am able to direct and control dogs if needed. I have a lot of experience with dogs who pull on leash, so that also will not be a problem.
About: I’ve had a strong love for dogs since I was a small child, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m playful and energetic with active dogs, while also being calm and comforting to more laid-back pups who just want cuddles and company. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making them feel safe, loved, and happy. I’d love the opportunity to enjoy every special moment with your fur baby and care for them like they’re my own. Since it’s summer and I’ve already graduated, I have a very open and flexible schedule and am available most days at almost any time. I’m able to stop by in the morning, afternoon, and again before the night ends to make sure your dog is comfortable, cared for, and getting plenty of attention throughout the day. Taking great care of your dog and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved will always be my top priority. I have a fenced yard, feeding bowls, and a leash to help keep your dog safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m also more than willing to purchase any additional supplies needed to make sure your dog is cared for properly and feels as comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always come first with me.

About: I have years of experience with dogs of many breeds. I can care for your dogs safely at your home. Feel secure when you travel. I'm new to the Memphis area and looking to meet nice families who need help with their dogs. I can walk or play with them as well as sit when you're away. I can stay at your home or travel back and forth daily whichever you prefer. I have a flexible schedule and prefer medium and large dogs.
About: I have previous experience in dog, cat, and house sitting. I’ve had several pets throughout my life and all have lived long healthy lives in my care. I currently volunteer with House of Mews on a weekly basis. I have knowledge and experience in caregiving, bathing, and administering medicine. I follow directions well and will give your furry friend the best care possible. Currently working my own hours, so I am flexible and free to visit whenever you need me. If you have any special requests, just let me know and we can work out pricing. My home is unfortunately unavailable for boarding. But I’m comfortable taking care of pets in all types of environments and don’t mind traveling with them in my car if you’d like me to enrich their day at a dog park or on a nature trail.
About: Hi everyone! I’m Ashley. (Rover lists my legal name, but I’ve gone by my middle name since birth.) I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is for pets to stay comfortable in their own home, so I focus on keeping their routines consistent and their environment calm and familiar. I’m both playful and patient, and I adapt to each animal’s personality — whether that means energetic playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to their normal routine. My two goals when caring for your pets are simple: 🐾 Make your pet feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away 📱 Give you total peace of mind with regular updates, photos, and communication You’ll always know how your pet is doing — and you might even get a video of me singing to them if they seem like they’d enjoy it. I have an extrememly flexible schedule, and i am 100% dependable. I am understanding about schedules changing or long work days without notice, and am more than happy for last minute drop in's or walks/feedings. Preferably at least a 1 hour notice, or if we live close by that would be an exception. I am very easy to work with! I care for the pets as instructed, whether it be in your backyard or on a walk or home snuggles/feeding. If your pets are fans of ridiculous humans singing to them, then I am the one for you.
About: I started walking & sitting dogs around my neighborhood when I was 14/15 years old. For about 2 years after, I frequently volunteered at the Humane Society, socializing the cats & walking dogs. I adore animals so much and have been trusted to care for many different kinds of pets in the past. Big, small, elderly, sick, or straight-up wild! Doing daily drop-ins or housesitting is most preferable because of my work schedule. I am always available overnight, but my available times change during the daytime hours. If it is a longer stay, I just need to know a little bit more ahead of time. I am the general manager at a coffee shop, so I do make my own schedule :) While dog-walking, I promise to keep my full attention on your pup at all times. I have experience walking larger breeds because of past jobs, as well as walking my own 120 lb. Doberman mix for years before he passed. While sitting or doing drop-in visits, I will promise to follow your exact instructions. I am clean, caring, and compassionate with everything I do. **I have taken care of large breed dogs, senior pets, disabled pets, pets with special needs, pets with daily medication, and pets with behavioral issues. Just let me know any important information beforehand! Though I currently have a full-time job, I have plenty of free time before/after work that I would love to spend with your animals :) I make my own schedule! Always available overnight. I cannot currently provide boarding in my own home, but I intend to fully respect anyone’s home I enter. Any instructions left will be followed to a T. Your personal belongings will never be touched, and communication is always my top priority.
“Julie is a real pro when it comes to working with dogs. My dog was a bit hesitant on meeting Julie, and she knew exactly how to gently earn his trust. Smooth sailing after that. He loved going on a walk with Julie, and I'm booking more sessions. Great communication skills, too.”
About: My name is Samantha I have been surrounded by pets ever since I can remember. I am Pet CPR and First-Aid certified as well as previous years experience in a Natural and Holistic Pet Retail store where I gained expansive knowledge in all areas of pet care. You could consider me your personal pet consultant! From a young age, I found joy in taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. I put a lot of pride in providing specialized care into the pets I’m caring for, just like they were my own. I myself have a special needs dog, which has taught me even more patience and thoughtfulness when caring for pets. Every single animal is unique and requires a different level of care, and I am able to cater to that individual pets needs. I’m able to provide training to dogs of all ages, nutrition guidance, and recommendations for overall health and wellness. I can’t wait to meet your pet! I have open availability, if not already booked with other pet care. I have my own dog hiking business where I provide enriching nature walks to dogs around Memphis. I am extremely detail oriented and will follow any instructions to a T. I understand the importance of establishing and maintaining routine with pets, so any needs or specifics needed, I will provide. As I mentioned in my About me, I am certified in pet first aid and CPR so in case of a life threatening emergency, I can provide immediate care and transport to an emergency vet.
About: What sets me apart is my love for the animals. This is my first time working in this field but I have had some fur babies in the past so I thoroughly know how to love and take care of them. I’m currently doing this full time so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I ‘m available 7 days a week. I have a fenced yard with a pool if your babies love to play in the water. My house is my safe haven. I make sure that your fur babies are loved and cared for in a safe environment.
About: I am a pet person! I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have cared for my own dogs and cats throughout my adult life. Animals have always been part of my family, and I truly love caring for fur babies of all ages and personalities. I treat every pet like my own, with patience, affection, attention, cuddles, and lots of love. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known in my community for taking care of friends’ pets when they’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, supervision, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood and love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. My home is very pet-friendly, I have a large, fenced in backyard, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my daily life. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like family. I have a secure fenced-in backyard with plenty of green space for dogs to safely play, explore, and get exercise. Pets will receive lots of attention, supervision, affection, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m happy to follow each pet owner’s routines, feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special preferences to help pets feel comfortable and secure. If needed, I can also crate pets according to the owner’s instructions and comfort level.
“Jenny has been an excellent dog walker for us! She’s professional, flexible with scheduling, and communicative. 100% recommend and will be using her services for boarding in the future! She shows my baby lot of love and attention too!”
“Jaymes has been great with my high-energy German Shepherd puppy! He goes the extra mile to reinforce the training we've been working on and make sure she's safe and happy. He clearly has a good amount of experience with dogs and is well-versed in the basic principles of dog behavior. Highly recommend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Rugby on Rover is $17.76 per walk (as of August 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 639 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rugby. 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 your Rugby. 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 Rugby.

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 Rugby. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
