About: I have years of professional experience working in veterinary hospitals caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My veterinary background has made me comfortable with senior pets, puppies, medication needs, special needs, and recognizing when something just isn’t quite right. I’m also a lifelong dog owner and understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your dog like one of my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day. I’m primarily available on weekdays for walks and drop-in visits, with flexibility depending on your pet’s routine and needs. I have years of experience working in veterinary hospitals, so your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I follow each pet’s normal routine and your specific instructions, including feeding, medications, walks, and any special needs. I’ll treat your pet and home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

About: I grew up in a household with 7 dogs and I've been watching my neighbors and my family's pets for years. I also worked at a dog boarding facility for several years. I currently have two very high energy corgis but currently have a lot of time and love for more animals! I currently work remote so am very flexible with my hours to match your pets needs, weekdays and week ends. I am also able to accommodate last minute (even day/hour of) requests no problem if I have availability As I work from home I'm able to give the pets a little extra care no matter the time of day and without having to rush off for my own job or family (my wife is perfectly able to handle my 2 doggies on her own!). Able to send as many updates and pics as needed to ease separation and can handle any special requests.

About: I’ve had my Rottweiler, Robby, since 2018 and he’s been my best friend ever since. He’s big boy at 90lbs so I’ve had a lot of experience with larger breeds like him as well as smaller breeds because of my girlfriend’s Bischon Poodle. I feel like dogs truly deserve all the love in the world so I've been working at the Montgomery Country Animal Shelter walking dogs and doing overnight stays with them for the last 5 years. I even helped get a dog named Mercy adopted last year and that was one of my proudest moments. I am currently a full-time employee working at L3Harris. My hours are 8am to 5pm on weekdays but I also get every other Friday off. With your permission, I'd love to take your dog on a walk on trails in the Blacksburg area like the Huckleberry Trail. I love dogs of all sizes, but pitbulls have a special place in my heart.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and energy I bring to every pet I look after. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. As an active person, I enjoy keeping dogs engaged through walks, exercise, and interactive play. I am comfortable caring for puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior dogs who may require a gentler approach and extra attention. I am reliable, communicative, and always provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to treat every pet like family and provide the same level of care and attention that I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I have availability throughout the week for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. During the summer and school breaks, I have even greater flexibility and can dedicate additional time to caring for pets. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, making dog walking and playtime something I genuinely look forward to. When caring for your pet, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and care based on their individual needs. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or extended pet sitting, I am committed to being reliable, communicative, and ensuring your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet are my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special care requirements. I understand that consistency helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. During walks and visits, I remain attentive to my surroundings and ensure pets are always safely leashed and supervised. I provide plenty of affection, playtime, and companionship while respecting the rules and routines established by the owner. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving excellent care. I treat every pet and home with the same level of respect, responsibility, and care that I would expect for my own.

About: Hello there! I am currently open for new clients! My full time client just left us to head out west. We will miss them badly, but look forward to bringing on other pets. I would love to care for your pets as my own! We do have a small Chihuahua mix named Fabel. She is great with all dogs and cats. I also have to be the ones that are 10 and 6 that are great little helpers. We have trails close by with lots of grassy areas to run around. We love long walks, play, & cuddles. No rules, your sweet pups are allowed wherever they’d like to go, but I do make sure all your rules and schedules are followed :) My weekly routine is simple. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to work around your schedule and attend to all your sweet pups needs I follow your schedule provided, but I also allow your pup to lead the way. If they want to play, we play. We take walks. Cuddles. Whatever your pup is used to and likes we’ll follow along.

About: I took care of my black lab for 8 years, including feeding, giving medications, bathing and walking. I raised my cat from 6 weeks forward, cleaning litter boxes, feeding, giving attention to/playing with, and giving any medicines needed. I currently have a 4 and 5 year old cat. I also regularly volunteered at the cat Cafe in Murfreesboro, TN before I relocated to the area. There I was responsible for playing with the cats, feeding them and cleaning litter boxes. I have worked at an animal hospital where I have gained knowledge about medical situations and some medication giving. I am also a professional toy fixer! I am currently in between jobs so I do have mostly open availability until this changes or if I have to block some time off for an interview. I am willing to stay as long as needed to keep your furbabies happy and make sure they are fully taken care of. Being sure to leave your home exactly how it was when I arrived.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Watson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 14,351 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Watson. 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 Watson. 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 Watson 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 Watson. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
