About: Puppies need time, patience, and most of all fun! Most of the time, puppies are stripped away from their families and are just looking for their pack. It is very important to create a safe environment and show love towards dogs. They are our protectors, and we are their caregivers I am retired. Although my husband is in the military, I do have free time most of the week. I am more than willing to be flexible and to also be a routine caregiver. For both dogs and cats, I do have two cats and one dog. I understand that while my pets are family, they are all individuals. I will take the time to learn each pet as an individual and not generalize their species.
“Meghan was an outstanding dog walker. She played with Steven my German shepherd and sometimes hung out even longer than she was required to. She even cleaned his ears and put medication in them for me because poor Steven suffers from frequent ear infections. Which I am certain wasn’t easy to do , Steven hates it when you touch his ears. She left detailed notes and you could tell genuinely cared for Steven. Highly recommend”

About: Hey there, my name is Megan and I've grown up with pets and the understanding of the love people have for their pets. I just moved to the Fayetteville area from Florida, and I have worked in 2 different boarding houses and one daycare facility in my life, leaving me with about 10 years of experience with animals. I'm comfortable with most dogs any size, and can also handle cats. I love animals of all kinds and try to comfort and love each and every one! I have walked dogs only through the one boarding job I've had but am 100% comfortable with walking dogs as I have 2 of my own. I'm willing to work Holidays and weekends! I hope you will concider me to take care of your furry friend/friends and hope to hear from you! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I set aside dedicated time for feeding, fresh water, exercise, and affection. I routinely check on each pet’s health, clean up their living areas, and follow any specific instructions from the owner. Throughout the week, I stay consistent with walks, play sessions, grooming, and updates for the client. This structure helps keep every pet happy, healthy, and on a steady routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their regular routine to keep the animals comfortable. I provide fresh food and water, give any needed medication, clean litter boxes or outdoor areas, and make sure they get plenty of playtime and attention. I also keep the home secure, follow all instructions closely, and send updates so the client knows their pets are safe and happy.
About: Fort Bragg Access! I’ve owned all kinds of animals since I was little, from small animals, to reptiles, to dogs and cats, and even farm animals. I am no stranger to taking care of critters, I have years of experience caring for and training in both a personal home setting and plenty of handling and care in professional settings as well! I spent over a year working for a doggie daycare and boarding facility and later worked at a vet office, handling all sizes and attitudes you can imagine. I know how to handle different types of personalities and bond with them all.

I currently work a very flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around stops and visits. When I am needed it is very easy to be there! When stopping by other’s homes to care for their pets, I make sure to give them plenty of time to potty or clean up any messes/litter boxes depending on the situation. That is so important when making visits while owners are away, no one wants to come back to a stinky home. I also make sure to spend plenty of time providing whatever kind of enrichment is preferred, I love being around furbabies and as long as they are accepting of the company, I don’t want them to feel alone while their owners are away. My own pets have a feeding and medication schedule we follow, so I am no stranger to following strict plans.

Emily took care of my two rescue dogs over Thanksgiving, dropping in and walking them several times a day. She was extremely reliable, always communicative, and even my skittish senior girl warmed to her immediately. I highly recommend her - I didn’t worry about my dogs for a minute while she was caring for them!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Spring Lake on Rover is $16.65 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 1,263 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Spring Lake. 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 Spring Lake. 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 Spring Lake.

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 Spring Lake. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
