About: I’m a big dog and cat lover. I have owned and taken care of my own pets for at least the last 6+ years. I take pride in a job well done. I have been working for a vet for the last few weeks and have picked up a few key thing to look for if your animal is sick or having problems. I am home most of the time which gives me great opportunity to focus on your fur babies. When you leave your pet in my care it will be as if you never left. I will give them the undivided attention they need to keep them calm and happy. I love all animals and look forward to taking care of your fur babies.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve loved working with them in all kinds of capacities since I was a child, and for more than 16 years, I’ve had the privilege of doing so professionally. Over the years, I’ve trained and cared for dogs of all personalities and backgrounds, including working dogs, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual. I’m a Canine Good Citizen Evaluator and am certified in Canine CPR and First Aid through the American Red Cross. I recertify annually so I can stay current with the latest first-aid practices, and I’m also comfortable administering oral medications when needed. Most importantly, I treat every dog in my care as an individual and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re here. Before your pup comes to stay, I’ll have you fill out a little information form about them. It’s not meant to feel like paperwork for paperwork’s sake—it simply helps me get to know your dog before they arrive. Their routines, quirks, favorite things, and anything else that helps me make them feel at home are all helpful to know. I don’t have a breed preference and have experience with everything from easygoing family companions to high-drive working dogs. Whether your pup is happiest curled up on the couch or ready to spend the day exploring, I’m happy to accommodate their personality and your preferences. And yes, your dog is absolutely welcome on our couch! ❤️ Our home is their home while they’re here, and we want them to feel comfortable and included. At the same time, I’m always happy to follow whatever arrangements work best for your family. No matter what their stay looks like, your pup can count on plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and interaction. My goal is for them to head home happy, tired, and already looking forward to their next visit! I wake up and start the day off with morning let out. After each group has been let we come back in for feeding. Morning feedings normally allow for 30-45 minutes before letting out again for a potty break. They are brought back in, crated, and pups are rotated out for play inside throughout the day. I let out every 2-4 hours through the day or more if needed. I do have the option to add on trail walks for those who have social canines who are good with other dogs and people (I will not be introducing them to others but it is a requirement to the trail). In the evening we normally do the last feeding at 7 pm followed by yard play and starting to settle in. Last potty break is at 10 pm. Note: Although I am at home full time I do on occasion leave our home to run errands. Your dog can be left alone for up to 4 hours (max). If this is ever the case your pup will always be crated and secure. For your pup's safety They are never given free rein while unsupervised. I take the safety of your furry companion very seriously. Canines are let out for potty breaks every 2-4 hours (or as needed, if required more frequently). I have a fenced-in yard so your pup will be safe during potty breaks. I do not allow companions from other families to play with each other. This is a safety measure. Your pup can be under a lot of stress when you're gone and I want to make their stay as smooth and relaxing as possible. This doesn't mean I will not be playing with your pup ourselves! I love playing fetch, puzzle games, and even tug with them. I do allow for several outings in the house throughout the day so they can get plenty of one-on-one attention inside as well as extra pets. I have 5 acres that are attached to the national preserve. If your furry companion is social and enjoys walks, I have several trails I am happy to take them on upon request (weather permitting). All outings are on leash only.

About: hello! my name is Carrington. I'm 28 years old. I have a 5 year old husky mix named Shadow. I love animals and always have had them growing up. As a little girl when I lived in Michigan, I used to walk the neighbor's dogs.

I love playing at the dog park with my dog, training, going for walks, and just overall spending time with dogs. Honestly, I spend more time with my dog than most people. if you are interested in me walking your dog or taking care of your dog please message me! I hope you have a great day :) I am currently not working and going to school full time (online zoom classes) so I am available usually anytime :) my classes are on Tuesday’s and Thursday from 6pm-7pm I will make sure to keep your house the way it was, if not better.

About: My full time job allows for flexibility during the work day and allows me to work anywhere with wifi. I can often be in the home caring for your animals or taking them out more often than a traditional sitter who works a 9-5. I dog sit for many members of my family and have had dogs since I was 2 years old. I have a lot of experience giving medication and working with elderly animals. If I am available, I would love to set up a meet and greet to see if I would be a good fit! I am also insured! I work a flexible 9-5 and can drop in to walk or spend additional time caring for your animal(s) because of the flexibility! I wake up early as well! I treat each home like I am a true guest there and treat it and the animals if they were my own. I am very respectful of the rules and furniture.

About: Hi, I'm Madison! I'm a certified dog trainer with 4 years of professional experience and nearly 15 years of living with dogs of my own. Every walk I offer is a 30-minute Walk & Train session, not just a stroll around the block. I pop by your home midday (with or without you home), and we work on real skills while we walk: - Loose-leash walking - Focus and check-ins - Calmly passing people, dogs, and distractions - Manners at the door and around the house Does your dog struggle with something specific? We'll talk through your goals up front, so every time I see your pup, we're actively working toward the things that matter most to you. After every session, I send you an update on what we worked on and what you can practice. I specialize in puppies, obedience, and behavior, and I have a soft spot for anxious and reactive dogs. Perfect for busy professionals and families who want a well-behaved pup without adding another thing to their plate! Dog training is my full-time work, so I'm around dogs every single day of the week. That means I have consistent weekly availability, typically from late morning through the late afternoon and into the evening. Because caring for dogs is already my daily routine, your pup fits right in and gets my full attention, along with the same calm, structured care I give every dog I work with. Because I offer walks and training, most of my care happens in your home and neighborhood, and I treat both with total respect. Safety always comes first. I follow whatever routine and instructions you give me, so if that means leashed walks, that's exactly what happens, and if it means letting your dog run around in a secure yard, that's what I'll do. I stay fully present and vigilant the entire time, always proactive rather than reactive, so I can catch and prevent anything before it becomes a problem. I'm used to working with dogs, I have great handling skills, and I'll always communicate, send updates, and make sure your dog and your home are exactly how I left them, if not in even better shape. My goal is simple: a calm, safe, happy dog, and a worry-free you.

About: since the age of fourteen i’ve walked all sorts of dogs around my neighborhood, but before i could talk, i was surrounded by large furry friends! at this moment my family and i take care of our 4 crazy fur babies! lucy, sparky, penny, and bear! I grew up walking, loving, and cleaning up after our dogs! Being a dog owner at such a young age taught me the severity of pet responsibility and time management! because i am a college student at high point university i have classes in the morning and late afternoon, but i have a reliable car and have at least two hours between either class. so i am very flexible!! in our gated community for retired military, our pups get to play in a fenced in back yard but we love to slip on their harness and take them on 2 separate 45 min walks morning and night! you can say the are definitely pooped by the end of the night

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a little girl. I have experience bathing them, feeding them and walking them. I enjoy going for walks around the community so this would not be a problem. I have two children ages 8 and 9 and they would enjoy spending time with your dog(s). I was a teacher by training but now work from home and am flexible. I am originally from Boston, MA and relocated to Charlotte, NC in 2018. I live in the Pineville area and although I would have no problem meeting you in your home, it would be better to meet me instead. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s) or cat(s). I currently work from from home so walking your dog every 3-4 hours is feasible with my schedule. I look forward to meeting your fury friend! I can also provide basic grooming such as a bath or brushing if needed for an additional fee. I look forward to caring for your fur baby!

About: I am a dog lover. I grew up with dogs and have 5 of my own they are all rescue babies! My babies would would say they are spoiled to death. “ I say I live and work for them.” I become mama bear when it comes to my babies. I would do the same for yours. My babies are all different ages from 3 to 9 years old. I would give them the same love and treats the way I do with my own. Pets hold a very special place in my heart. I am available mostly nights and weekends. I work full time until 4. I am available most federal holidays as well with the type of work I do. I would come to your home to care for your baby so they are comfortable in their surroundings.I know how it feels when you take them out of their environment. I have experience with my own dogs and I made a decision not to do that. Being in normal environment will be less stressful when people need them to be watched. Less stress happy fur baby.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,692 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Spencer. 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 Spencer. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Spencer after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spencer. On Rover:

  • 91% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
