“Martina has been extremely reliable and patient. She’s always communicative during the walks and keeps me updated, which I really appreciate. Being in the Army with unpredictable hours is tough, but she truly puts my mind at ease knowing my baby is getting the care and attention he needs when I can’t be there. I’m so thankful for her!”
“Maria was great! Communicative, friendly, and reliable, good with dogs. Handled our large skittish but friendly dog very well for a productive walk (and they had never met!). Such a help when we were visiting from out of town but away for the evening. Thank you so much for the good communication and peace of mind.”

About: Hi, I’m Sarah, a freelance photographer based in Columbia. I offer dog walking, cat care and/or drop-in visits, with an emphasis on following your pet’s familiar routine and keeping you informed while you’re away. Over the course of the past 10 years, I’ve cared for my own husky, pit bull mix and three cats, gaining hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior cats. I’m comfortable with everyday care, including cleaning litter boxes, administering medication and keeping a close eye on pets’ comfort and wellbeing. For the past three years, I’ve also regularly looked after a client’s Cane Corso and Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. My experience has helped me appreciate that every animal has its own personality, routine and needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I aim to offer the same patience, attention and care that I would want for my own animals. My client-facing work has taught me the importance of punctuality, clear communication and following detailed instructions. I bring that same professional approach to every commitment, and I will take the time to understand your pet’s needs before agreeing to a booking. You can expect an update after each visit, including how your pet is doing and a few photographs. As a photographer, I enjoy capturing their personality—but their care, comfort and safety will always come first. In my spare time I love to volunteer with local dog shelters to take rescues on days out and take portraits of them to help in their adoption process. I work freelance and arrange pet-care bookings around my existing commitments. My usual availability is weekdays 10am-7pm within Columbia. I keep my calendar updated and confirm visit times before accepting a booking. Once a booking is agreed, I plan my schedule around the care we have arranged. Before a first booking, I like to have a conversation and discuss your pet’s routine, temperament and any particular needs. I’ll confirm feeding instructions, walking equipment, home access and emergency contacts, and be honest about whether I’m the right fit. During visits, I’ll follow the agreed care plan, respect your home and privacy, and contact you promptly about any concerns.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 722 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Wateree. 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 Wateree. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Wateree 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 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 Wateree. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
