“Needed a dog walker due to a sudden personal medical injury. Taylor made an otherwise stressful situation much easier for My pup. Always on time, with arrival confirmed before each visit and clear, consistent communication throughout. Each walk included photos, potty updates, and other relevant details, shared in the app upon completion of each walk. Walks were thoughtfully adjusted for cold weather and icy conditions, with safety prioritized over rigid timing. Taylor provided calm and consistent service that greatly relieved stress for My pup during this medically vulnerable time. Well suited for walking dogs with mobility limitations. My pup genuinely enjoyed walking with Taylor.”
“Ashley is a great. This is our first experience with her for our 11.5 years old baby. She is diligent, caring and experience person. We loved her. We will see her next time. Thanks Ashley!! We appreciate all you do!!”
“Allison was super great, quick to communicate and share updates. Made sure our pup was fully exercised and even offered to feed him which wasn’t even asked for! She went above and beyond and was a life saver coming in last minute after our other sitter had to bail. Would absolutely recommend.”
“Kaelin was very communicative and willing to hear all about our girls quirks and behaviors and was patient in hearing their vocal welcomes whenever she stopped by to let them out for us. Appreciate her flexibility and communication. Recommend her services!”
“Betsy has been a great regular dog walker for my 5yo pom. He’s friendly but he has some quirks and it’s been really easy to get him used to her and out for some mid-day walks while I’m at work.”
About: I'm a teacher with a flexible summer schedule and a big heart for animals. Whether it's walks, belly rubs, playtime, or keeping your pet company while you're away, I'm here to help and make sure they feel loved and cared for. I've been a dog owner for over six years and currently have two German Shepherds, ages 5 and 6, whom I've raised since they were puppies. I've spent countless hours researching dog behavior, training techniques, nutrition, and enrichment to help them grow into happy, well-adjusted companions. And trust me, it has been a challenge! Caring for large, energetic breeds has given me experience with daily walks, playing fetch ALL DAY :) , basic obedience training, administering medications when needed, and understanding canine body language. I am no expert, but I know that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to build trust and provide patient, attentive care. I'll treat your pets with the same love, respect, and attention that I give my own every day. Summer break gives me the opportunity to spend my days doing something I enjoy, caring for animals! As a teacher, I have a flexible summer schedule and am available for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets throughout the week. Because I have two German Shepherds at home who prefer not to have unfamiliar animals or visitors in their space, I currently focus on drop-in visits and walks. This allows me to provide dedicated care for your pets while ensuring my own dogs remain comfortable and happy at home.
About: I have been watching animals since I was 16 and love helping out. Hoping to find some re-peat clients that need some help- Thank you I am currently looking to watch more cats and dogs and spend time outside. Flexible availability and I am very active. Thank you! - Elyssa I prefer to watch the pets at the clients home since I currently do not live in a house. Happy to meet up before deciding if it is a good fit.
“Absolutely the best! We have a Cane Corso, and I was concerned about the size. Lauren grew up with Corsos, so I felt confident. Brecklyn absolutely loved Lauren from the beginning. Lauren was fabulous on communication with me from before we left, while we weee gone and even after. Will definitely use Lauren for future dog walking/watching needs!”
About: I grew up with a Golden Retriever and Yellow Lab and now have my own Golden Retriever puppy named Banks! I’m very comfortable with large, energetic dogs. I’m very active & dependable and would love to walk your dog for you! I am done with work by 3pm so could help out anytime after that. I am available to walk your dog any day of the week I provide attentive care by feeding, walking, and playing with pets, ensuring their physical and emotional needs are met. I adjust walks on dog’s age/capabilities
“Brooke was wonderful with our 2 dogs and walking them while I was out of town. She came on time every day and provided a picture and walking card after each walk so I could follow along virtually. Thank you so much!”
“Andrea was super responsive and punctual. She left a detailed note about Jagger’s walk. She was very patient with him! She gives off very kind and caring energy. Would 10/10 recommend and use again.”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I created and ran my own Petsitting business in the Raleigh area for the past 8 years. I've also had experience with a variety of pets, from cats and dogs, to chameleon and koi fish! I am constantly around animals and committed to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your pet. When I take care of, play with, cuddle, and walk your pet I will dedicate my time to their needs. I have a 1 year old Labrador retriever of my own who is full of energy and joy! I have plenty of time to take care of your fur-babies! I am a college student at NC State University with a part time job in the Raleigh area. I usually work in the late morning/afternoon a couple days a week. Whether it be a walk, playtime, or check in visit, I am very flexible with a vehicle and willing to accommodate to your needs! I will be updating my schedule weekly to reflect my work schedule. When in your home, I would love to take your pets for walks, play time, snuggles on the couch, and anything you already do with them to make them most comfortable!
About: I don’t currently have any pets of my own (my last passed away last year with stomach cancer 😢)…I’m not ready for new family members yet but so happy to care for yours! I’m completely comfortable and experienced with all ages, breeds, and most need sets. I live in an apartment that is right next to a dog park for all your pup’s running around and exploring needs…or I live right off the greenway if long walks on the leash are preferable. I've got experience in different kinds of training and don't mind dogs with big personalities. I’ve got experience with medication administration as well (pills, powders, injections). I'm always available by text, email, and phone and look forward to sending you updates of your babies while you’re away. I’m happy to host your pets in my home or spend time with them closer to your home base. Please let me know if you have any questions about your specific situation. I look forward to hearing from you and your pets! I have a flexible schedule and can adapt my schedule to the needs of your pet when it comes to exercise, feeding, and of course snuggles. I live very close to a dog park and greenway access and can take your dog often to either as preferred. I would also be excited to take a cat for a walk. 😆 Pets who need their crates are welcome and we will follow their normal schedules. Same goes for coming to your home to care for your pet - we will follow your schedules and instructions!
“Alyssa was great with my dog Tucker while I was on vacation. She was sweet, reliable, and Tucker seemed really happy after each walk. I felt at ease knowing he was in good hands for the week. Highly recommend!”
Six Forks dog parents share their Rover experiences
Katherine is absolutely fantastic and we are so thankful for her! I appreciate and thoroughly look forward to her updates and photos when she is with my dog or taking him for a walk. She is very trustworthy, reliable, communicative, thorough, and thoughtful regarding any pets needs or requests. I 1000% Katherine to anyone looking for a Rover!
Beverly goes above and beyond in every way and she made my transition back to using Rover the most incredible experience that I did not expect. I say this at the risk of losing availability for my favorite pet caretaker EVER, but you are crazy if you’re not booking with Beverly! There will never be someone better to stand in for you to love and care for your pets while you’re away. Thank you endlessly for what you for my little farm!! 🥹♥️
My dogs adore Chase! Somehow, they always know when he's coming and they wait at the door for him, then push me out of the way to greet him when he arrives. He always shows up on time, lets me know when he is on his way, and is extremely personable and kind to talk to. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a dog walker!
Trisha did a fantastic job walking our dog this past weekend. She was punctual, reliable, and sent great updates that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she has a natural way with animals, and our dog came back happy and well-exercised every time. We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future walks—highly recommended!
Asheton was amazing once again! Charlie looked so happy in all the pictures from his walk, and it was clear he had a great time with her. She’s very responsive, easy to work with, and always gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in good hands. I definitely recommend her and will continue booking with her for future walks!
Kelly is amazing and our pup loves her. This is the second time she watched him and she is the first one we go to when we need someone to check in on him. She is reliable and great with communication and most importantly loves and cares for our fur baby like he’s her own.
Allison was super great, quick to communicate and share updates. Made sure our pup was fully exercised and even offered to feed him which wasn’t even asked for! She went above and beyond and was a life saver coming in last minute after our other sitter had to bail. Would absolutely recommend.
