About: I grew up in a neighborhood my friends used to call “the farm”. We had 3 dogs, one neighbor had chickens, one neighbor had horses, and another neighbor had goats. Along with various dogs and cats at each house. Because I was the oldest kid in the neighborhood, I was the go-to person anytime a neighbor needed a house sitter or even just needed me to feed their pet dinner since they were out late. When I got older and started driving, I began dog sitting for our large group of friends, taking care of all sizes of dogs, cats, and the occasional reptile. Although I work part-time, I am generally available 7 days a week for house sitting. I am willing to accommodate crazy schedules and last minute plans if need be. I have a small home but a big yard, so while I can’t accommodate boarding, I have a large outdoor space and my own pup that is eager for play dates during the day. As for house sitting, I provide attentive, personalized care in my client’s home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely. With my history in the animal health field, I am comfortable administering any medications if needed. As a person who values communication, I provide regular ‘pupdates’ and pictures so owners feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have lots of practical experience with dogs. I have owned dogs my whole life and have dog sat for family and friends. I am able to do all of the necessary tasks in order to take care of your furry friend, up to and including: playtime, feedings, walks, and cleaning up after them. I do work a full time job but I do have some flexibility on the weekdays/weekends. Wednesday: anytime after 1pm Friday: 11:30-12:39, and after 4:30pm Saturday: anytime after 12pm Sunday: available all day I am not able to offer my home for pet care as I rent the home I live in and my landlord does not allow any pets. I am able to come to your home, so long as detailed instructions on how to care for your pet are provided.
“Sebastian did a fantastic job walking my dog! He was professional, reliable, and clearly cared about my dog’s well-being. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and I couldn’t be more pleased. I highly recommend Sebastian!”
“Oli has been such a help for both overnight house sitting and quick workday walks. She is respectful of all my requests, very communicative and helpful. Best of all, she is so great with my large, energetic German shepherd dog. I’m so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her services.”
“Blake is so good with our two young, high strung dogs. On the days they go on walks with her, they are so much happier when we get home from work and behave much better after getting some energy out during the day. Blake is patient, kind, communicative and trustworthy. Thank you ❤️”
“Michael has been great walking my Lab/Husky mix Ripley while I've been injured and unable to get him out, even taking him to the local dog park to play. Michael is prompt, professional, and responds to messages and booking requests quickly. Ripley is very excited to see him when he comes, and returns home very happy. We've already booked additional walks. Highly recommend!”
“Melissa is amazing; she is punctual, communicative, friendly, and my pets adore her! I am never worried when I leave my pets in her care; I know they are well taken care of and that means the world to me. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Sarah is such a loving and caring person with my dog. He absolutely loves her and her kids! She always keeps me updated on everything that’s going on with him and responds to every single one of my messages super quickly. I can tell he is happy, safe, and well cared for with her. I would definitely trust her with my dog again without hesitation. Highly recommend Sarah! ❤️🐶”
“Thank you, Amanda for always taking such great care of Bella, keeping an eye on her aging and alerting us to changes you’re seeing. We know she’s in great hands and enjoys her special time with you each day.”
About: I've had the privilege of being a dog mom for the last 13 years which lands me a ton of experience caring for dogs but I love caring for all animals! I'm currently freelancing part time and have the flexibility (especially during the day) to make house calls and go for daily walks. I'm also available weekends! When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their well-being and strive to provide a comfortable and nurturing environment. I ensure that their basic needs and give them tons of attention and affection, engaging in playtime and cuddles to keep them mentally and emotionally stimulated. Overall, my goal is to create a loving and reliable caregiving experience for pets.
About: Hello! I’ve been dog walking for the past year and it’s become my favorite activity. I give careful, loving attention, and it’s a plus if the dog has been trained to respond to commands. You won’t find me scrolling on my phone during walks! I regularly walk a playful Labradoodle named Jerry. I don’t yet have a dog of my own but I will always make time for them. I’m a former librarian who enjoys helping others. When I’m not walking, you’ll find me on planning committees for volunteer organizations, singing in choirs, and mentoring a fantastic teen. I look forward to meeting you and your pooch/pooches! My services include walking only, not pet sitting. Safety comes first, then fun. I am easily adaptable to following specific instructions or rules from each owner.
“Daphne enjoyed her walk with Nikki! Our pup is nervous with new people and Nikki took the time to get to know her and let Daphne get comfortable with her. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stony Point
I honestly don’t think 5 stars is high enough, I wish I could give more. We LOVE Lexi! She’s so knowledgeable about dogs in general and is perfect for our pup, Roxy. They go for runs and Roxy actually comes back tired, which we’ve found is really hard to do with such a high energy dog! Lexi is also very attuned to Roxy and her leash reactivity, which we really appreciate. She’s super flexible and accommodating, and takes the best pictures!! Just an all around great person and dog walker. I couldn’t recommend her more.
Sarah is such a loving and caring person with my dog. He absolutely loves her and her kids! She always keeps me updated on everything that’s going on with him and responds to every single one of my messages super quickly. I can tell he is happy, safe, and well cared for with her. I would definitely trust her with my dog again without hesitation. Highly recommend Sarah! ❤️🐶
Blake was so sweet w our Hobie! She came by to meet him prior to our booking and stayed in communication w/us. Was timely and sent a few pics while on his walk. Sent us notes on the visit and made sure he was comfortable and secure before leaving. Thank you, Blake!
We love Marianna! She is sweet, caring, and helpful. We had inspectors coming to the house and had to have her go through the back, she was very kind and understanding. Our dog loves going out with her and he’s always super happy after their walk. We highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,744 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Stony Point. 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 Stony Point. 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 Stony Point.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 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 Stony Point. On Rover:
- 98% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
