About: Hi, I'm King Dre! Im new to the LA area but I’ve been taking care of pets my whole life!!! I was born and raised in Orlando, Florida, played baseball for 16 years both Varsity Highschool as well as Travel ball and in 2019 moved up here to North Carolina for my dads retirement and to be close to his side of the family. I recently worked at PetSmart for about a year and took care of many exotic pets on the daily! Whatever your needs are, pets are a breeze for me and you are more than welcome to message me your requests and we will work something out. Thank you and may God guide your spirit in Jesus name, amen!!! I always prioritize pets necessities and desires and have a job that allows me to work remotely while I take care of your pets at the same time!!! I also own a cat myself who I love and adore with all my soul lol. I would take your pet for a walk daily to ensure their built up energy is being used as well as give them special play time! However many times your animal takes to use the bathroom I will ensure happens and accommodate any preferences they have and are needed. I love to lay and cuddle with animals so if that’s something your pet loves, I’m all for it!

About: I've taken care of pets all of my life. From puppies all the way up to seniors. I love them all. They all need someone to care for them and feel the extra love especially when their normal family is away. I'm currently flexible and can fit pet care into my daily routine. Occasionally, I will pick up an additional job. But that shouldn't interrupt with taking care of what I love to do and that is to take care of fur babies. I would rather take care of your pets in their environment due to the fact that they are most comfortable there. I also have two fur babies of my own. But I feel as if fur babies are normally happy in their own surroundings.

About: I’ve had 2 cats that I’ve taken care of my whole life. Sadly they are both gone now so I am looking to provide love to someone else’s pet while they are away. I also currently have a chinchilla so I have experience with small animals/rodents. I have also pet sat for family friends with dogs. I recently left my corporate job and wanted to spend this time doing what I enjoy most, spending time with animals! My schedule is pretty flexible and open. I can also do overnight care. I’ve moved back home with my mom so unfortunately I can’t board/watch any pets at my house but I can watch/do overnights at yours. I am very responsible and will send you updates on your fur baby if that is something that interests you!

About: I love all pets—young or old, big or small! I’ve grown up with animals and have fostered dogs for over 10 years. I currently share my home with a sweet 7-year-old cat named Ziti and a gentle 14-year-old dog named Ellie. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and various breeds, and can administer medication as needed. I’m currently pursuing a graduate degree in nursing, so my full-time job would be caring for your pet, and I have flexible hours. I will treat your pet like family! My hours and schedule are flexible. I’m currently pursuing a graduate degree in nursing, so my full-time job would be caring for your pet, which would be around my schoolwork. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I give my own. I follow your instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine, including feeding, playtime, medication, and any special needs. I’m mindful of keeping your home clean and secure. I’ll lock up properly, clean up after your pet, and be attentive to any changes in their behavior or environment. I ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and stress-free while you're away, and I always communicate with you to provide updates and peace of mind.

“As always, did a great job with the last minute dog walking request. Doggies love her and she is totally trustworthy. She gave them ice cold water after the walk to cool them down from the walk. Definitely knows how to take care of the fur babies and is an animal lover which shows in her actions. I highly recommend her.”

“Phil was great, I’d highly recommend! He was great at communicating leading up to Sasha’s walk and arrived on time. I immediately felt comfortable with Sasha in his care. He took time to meet her and she quickly took to him. I loved the photos I got in the report card too! I know I can trust Phil with my dog. We will definitely have Phil as our regular dog walker/sitter in the future!”

“We are so happy to have found Brandy! She was very detailed in her daily check-ins and report cards for our dog, Neyland. Brandy shared lots of photos and kept us updated daily. She was professional, punctual, thoughtful, loving and attentive. When she noticed Neyland needed a little extra playtime / walks outside she was happy to do so. She ensured he was happy, comfortable and gave lots of attention and snuggles. She did not hesitate to reach out with additional questions and was very quick to respond. We will absolutely use Brandy again and refer her to friends! Thank you again for loving our doodle as much as we do :)”

About: I have grown up around dogs and cats my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. My experience includes large breeds such as Mastiffs and Pit Bulls, French Bulldogs, Dachshunds, domestic cats, Sphynx cats, and feral cats. I have also worked in a doggy daycare under the supervision of a veterinarian, which gave me additional experience in a professional animal-care setting. I understand the importance of patience, safety, following care instructions, and recognizing that every animal has different needs and behaviors. I am passionate about providing loving, attentive care and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to give pet owners peace of mind while they are away. i am currently working part time so i will have plenty of time to play with your fur baby’s! i’m available for over nights as well!

About: Hi! We’re Christina and Brian, a husband-and-wife pet sitting team who love giving pets the comfort and consistency of staying in their own home while their people are away. 🐾 We are both approved Rover sitters and have each completed Rover’s background check, which gives us the flexibility to work together or individually depending on the needs and schedule of each booking. We’ll always communicate with you ahead of time about who will be caring for your pets so you know exactly what to expect. 🐾 One of the perks of our different schedules is that we can offer flexible care. Christina works remotely and when she is the primary sitter, can often work right from your home. This means she is able to spend much of the day with pets who enjoy extra companionship or aren't used to being alone for a traditional workday. Brian works outside of the home during the day, so his housesitting schedule looks more like a traditional work schedule with care before and after work and overnight. 🐾 We understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and comfort level. We’re happy to follow feeding schedules, walks, medications, bedtime routines, and all of the little things that help your pets feel like life is as normal as possible while you're gone. 🐾 We also know how important it is to feel comfortable with the people staying in your home. We take that responsibility seriously and want you to enjoy your trip knowing your pets and home are being well cared for. We provide regular updates and photos and are always happy to communicate as much or as little as you prefer. 🐾 Before accepting a booking, we like to make sure we're a good fit for your pets, their routine, and the amount of time they’re accustomed to being alone. That way, we can determine which of us is the best fit for your stay and make sure everyone knows exactly what to expect before booking. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible which allows me the ability to work around your needs for pet sitting/walking. I'm happy to talk further about specific needs. I would follow instructions of the pet owner - supervised backyard play, on-leash walks, etc. I always provide updates at each check-in and include photos.

About: Hi everyone! 🐾 Need a helping paw? I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12years old and have grown up with two dogs and a cat of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I have experience with puppies full of energy as well as senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve also spent several years volunteering at a local animal adoption center, working hands-on with both dogs and cats of all personalities. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or a calm and caring presence while you’re away, I’m here to help! I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own! My schedule allows me to have a lot of free time. I do have another job at a local restaurant, but I can work my shifts around petsitting. I love taking care of all pets and helping them out and you out! I will keep a safe environment for every pet, making sure any fences or doors are closed, nothing they can chew on, etc. I would treat other clients dogs like they are my own!

About: I have been around animals since I was very young. I grew up with dogs, and now have three cats (and a horse) of my own. I worked with dogs for about 3 years: at a boarding and daycare facility, a vets office, and then as an assistant mobile groomer. I spend most of my time around animals in my day to day life, and truly enjoy meeting new friends along the way. I can do morning or evening visits! I work another job as well so my drop in times are limited to beginning and end of day but am fairly flexible with those windows. I love when clients leave me clear instructions on how to care for their pets. I prefer to not have much left to my discretion unless we have previously worked together. :) You know your dogs and cats best!! It's a privilege to care for others pets...trust that they will be as protected and safe as my own babies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Waxhaw is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 4,507 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Waxhaw. 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 Waxhaw. 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 Waxhaw 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 Waxhaw. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
