“Alex is highly recommended by us and our dog, Duncan. Before finding Alex, we have never trusted the care of our dog or house to anyone. We can’t tell you how thankful we are for finding Alex!”
About: I've grown up with several cats. My best friend and the love of my life is a tabby cat I've had since I was 12 years old. I didn't have a dog growing up but I frequently cared for my neighbors Great Pyrenees. My first dog as an adult was a rescue coonhound mix and my current dog is a purebred Redbone Coonhound. I live in an apartment with 2 cats and a dog. I work part time at Food Lion, but I'm wanting to be a full-time pet sitter. Humans are too complicated for me. Plus it gives me the opportunity to spend more time with my dog! I live in an apartment but I'm very active. I utilize all the trails and parks in the area and I bring along my buddy Cheeto, a Redbone Coonhound who loves other dogs!
“Jennie is the best dog walker/caretaker you could ever ask for! She’s been great with my Nessa, who can be leash reactive. She helped me train her, has been patient beyond belief, and has always left me detailed information about her walks. More than that, she is an all around stellar person. Would give her 6 stars if I could!”
“I highly recommend Laina. I hired her to take and pickup Peace at daycare. Peace has anxiety and Laina was very gentle with him. She has patience, compassion and very understanding…..which is what I need when it comes to Peace. Thank you Laina! 😊👏😊👏😊👏👏👏👏❤️”
About: Expert in ear scratches for critters big and small. I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I love to run, if you’re looking to get exercise for your pup.

About: Welcome to my profile! I just moved here from Chicago to start graduate school. I’m a lifelong animal lover and have a dog that never slows down. My parents have four cats and a dog, so I'm constantly around furry friends and well-versed in different temperaments and routines. I also have 12 years of experience caring for pets belonging to family and friends, so I understand the importance of finding someone you trust. Whether it's walks, playtime, or cozy cuddles, I treat every pet like my own and always aim to keep them safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My schedule is very flexible, and I'm happy to work around your pet's needs! I take mostly evening and night classes, which means I'm available during the day for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting while you're at work. I'm also available on weekends, as long as I'm notified before the weekend begins. I just ask for at least two days' notice so I can make sure I give your pet the time and attention they deserve! Your pet's safety and trust mean everything to me. Since I'm unable to host animals in my own home, I will be caring for your pet in their familiar environment to help reduce stress and maintain their routine. I treat every home with the utmost respect and take pride in being reliable, responsible, and detail-oriented. I am more than happy to provide updates and pictures throughout each visit. The only thing I ask is that you communicate openly with me about your pets' behaviors and stressors so I can care for them appropriately.

About: Hello! I have always been surrounded by dogs growing up and lived with a dalmatian, GSP, and weimeraner before moving out of my parents home! I have cared for itty bitty chihuahuas to massive bull mastiff-pitt mix dogs. I have worked with pets who need medication and special care, as well as anxious dogs who need constant activity (or to just be left alone). I understand that pets are a part of the family and need to be cared for as such. I have my own pup now and know how important it is to have a trusted caretaker so you can fully enjoy your time away. I currently work part time in a very flexible environment making it easy to accommodate many different needs and scheduling preferences. Any pets are treated like part of the family and given full priority over any other engagements I’m happt to board other dogs if meet and greet goes well with my own pup! I’m more than willing to stay overnight in others homes if that makes you more comfortable, or just have multiple drop in visits at your preference.
About: I’ve taken care of pets all my life, being a life-long dog owner to pet sitting for friends/family/ on Rover! I fully understand that your fur baby is your family. I have experience with special-needs dogs and have given loving care to a special needs rescue dog of my own. I have experience administering daily and monthly medication, taking my pets to training, giving regular walks, feeding, grooming and going on trips for enrichment. I truly understand all the responsibility that goes into being a pet parent and having pets with behavioral /anxiety conditions has helped me prepare for working with pups who require patience and a gentle demeanor :) I love dogs, cats, and creatures of all kinds! Let me know what yours likes and needs, I’m happy to go on adventures, walks, or caretake in other ways ! I am also available for cat sitting. I have lived with roommates who have had cats for over 4 years and have sat for their cats while they are away (as well as provided professional cat-sitting services). I am happy to play with your cat, feed, scoop litter, and do light grooming (for kitties who tolerate it)! *I have experience providing injection insulin to diabetic cats while cat-sitting and can provide this service for your kitty , and am additionally comfortable providing this for your dog after a training session with you (but had a very positive experience administering to cats). My job schedule changes on occasion due to part-time work but I will always have my Rover profile updated to my current availability for bookings! I am not currently boarding at my home but I will always make sure your fur baby is safe and take care of on walks by using proper equipment, keeping them hydrated with clean drinking water and being aware of extreme weather conditions, keeping in regular contact with you. If you would like me to transport them, I have a clean driving record and will make making sure they are safe and comfy in my car, never unattended. At your home, I will make sure they are never closed/locked in somewhere they should not be or locked out of somewhere they need access to. Again, they will always have access to their water and food in the manner that you instruct me to have it out for them. I will follow all safety protocols with keeping your house secure. I love sending pet photos to those who request them because I know how important and reassuring that can be when you are away!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Skyland
Tasha has become a welcomed addition to Royal’s daily routine. She walks him daily, giving him the exercise and stimulation he needs. She is very reliable, professional and always communicates with me on Royal’s needs and changes in her schedule. She’s also highly knowledgeable in her field and is an excellent resource. I highly recommend her for her services.
My job deploys me to many areas, ranging from a week at a time to months. I’m thankful I get to bring my pup with me during these deployments. So finding a trustworthy dog walker was a priority and I hit the jackpot with Ms. Emma. She is incredibly dependable and has made my dog so much happier. Emma is professional, communicative, and simply wonderful and I can tell my pup Jazzy loves her! 10/10 recommend!
Emily has been caring for Toast for a couple months now. She is very good at reinforcing the same commands I use with Toast. Which is fantastic, because I did a dog training course with him, along with one on one training. He gets consistency with her. And she communicates very well with her availability and what days/nights she can and can't do. Since Emily has cats and dogs of her own I can tell she truly puts in the time and effort to make my dog feel just as comfortable as her own animals. ❤️
Highly recommend Alexis! Luna had so much fun with her and she was well taken care of! Alexis sent us a great update with pictures and we are so pleased with the care she gave Luna! Definitely hire her for any of your pet needs! We will definitely be using Alexis again!
Megan is amazing and I highly recommend her. I was very nervous about her walking my dog considering he is a 95 pound Rottweiler and after a couple of walks with her and my dog, I realized she has a lot of experience with all different types of dogs.. I also realized that my dog was going to be in very very good care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Skyland on Rover is $16.65 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 1,070 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Skyland. 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 Skyland. 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 Skyland.

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 Skyland. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
