About: I have been taking care of pets for 10 years now. My passion for animals boosted in 2013 when I started helping a nonprofit animal rescue. Since then I have fostered animals, became a pet sitter for past fosters and worked in animal care. I do have a full-time job at a local rescue barn, but my hours are pretty flexible so I am usually able to cater to your pets schedule! I just recently graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a Bachelors in Biological Sciences with a focus in Animal Science, with the hopes of attending vet school in the near future. I will treat your pet with the respect and love they deserve. I provide care at the pace your furry friend is comfortable with, to ensure they have the best care possible. I have experience in working with all sorts of different personalities from anxious and nervous to happy-go-lucky. I stride to treat each pet like they are my own and provide them with the care to put your worries to ease.

“Jennifer did a fantastic job taking care of my mom’s fur babies! Smoke and Bandit are 14 years old move slow (Smoke also has arthritis and she kept an eye on him) and Jennifer was very patient in walking them. She was able to help me out on short notice the first week when my mom needed assistance with her dogs so I could take care of work and my work travels. She helped my mom for about 3 weeks in total. She was extremely flexible and always provided pictures and videos of the kiddos so I could follow along while I was not available. She kept me up to date every day with multiple reports on how they were doing. She was extremely easy to communicate with and always very quick with her responses (which I am grateful for). She went out of her way to make sure they got their medication and even picked up a prescription for Smoke while I was out of state. I can’t recommend Jennifer enough and will definitely use her again in the future!!”

About: I've had & taken care of cats & dogs since I was 7 years old! Over the past 5 years I've moved into caring for the pets of other's just as a favor to friends & family. Now I want to leave corporate America & care for furry family members professionally. I'm currently working on making pet sitting my full time job so my availability is completely open for around the clock care whether your pet is an early riser or a night owl! I prefer to care for pets in their own space as I have roommates at this time & our landlord doesn't allow pets on property.

About: I’m a lifetime dog owner with hands-on experience caring for family and friends' pets. I know exactly how to handle both the chaotic energy of puppies and the gentle, slow-paced needs of senior dogs. I accommodate both planned schedules and last-minute requests, making it easy for busy owners when schedules change on a dime. ​I live right next to dog parks and trails, meaning your dog gets high-quality exercise and adventure rather than just a quick walk around the block. ​I send regular photo updates so you always know your fur baby is happy, safe, and having fun in real-time. My schedule is wide open, meaning I can easily accommodate regular routines, mid-day breaks, or last-minute, short-notice requests. Im happy to set a routine as well sinc ei know this helps with over all comfort for everyone. I can come for short walks or hour long walks, whatever you need! I can care for your pets at my place—where I live right next to dog parks and trails—or in the comfort of your own home. When caring for pets in your home, I am deeply respectful of your space and always tidy up after myself and your pet so you can come home to a clean house.

About: I've shared my life with animals for more than 30 years, and I truly can't imagine a home without them. Over the years, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, turtles, fish, hermit crabs, and more. Every animal has its own unique personality, and getting to know what makes each one feel safe, happy, and loved is one of my greatest joys. My heart has a special place for senior pets. My beloved Shih Tzu, Paisley, was my soulmate and constant companion for 15 wonderful years. Caring for her through every stage of life taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of paying attention to the little things—whether that's noticing a change in behavior, sticking to a medication schedule, or simply knowing when a pet needs extra comfort and reassurance. Today, my home is filled with the joyful chaos of two rambunctious hounds, Hunter & Brownie, and one mischievous black kitty, Batman (Mr. Meeps), who keep me laughing every single day. They remind me that every pet is wonderfully unique, with their own personality, quirks, and favorite ways to be loved. Whether your companion is an energetic puppy, a curious cat, or a sweet senior who prefers a slower pace, I'm committed to providing the individualized care, patience, and affection they deserve. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is about so much more than feeding and walking them. They are family. When they're in my care, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and attention I'd want for my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, endless games of fetch, quiet cuddle time, or simply having someone nearby who makes them feel safe, I'll meet them where they are. I'm dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I'll provide plenty of love, playtime, exercise, and affection, along with regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is simple: for you to return home to a happy pet—and for your pet to look forward to seeing me again. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. This flexibility means I can accommodate your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication reminders, or simply spending quality time together. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I believe pets are happiest when they can maintain their normal routine, especially while their family is away. In your home, I'll follow your pet's schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), potty breaks, litter box cleaning, and, of course, plenty of love and attention. I'll also make sure your home is respected by bringing in mail or packages, watering plants if requested, and leaving everything just as I found it. I know every pet is unique. Some love to play, some prefer long walks, and others simply want a calm companion nearby. I'll take the time to understand your pet's personality and tailor my care to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll also send regular photo and message updates so you can enjoy your time away with confidence, knowing your pet is receiving attentive, compassionate care every step of the way.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 9 years old when I got my first cat named Midnight. I have had Australian Shepherds, dachshunds, Bengal cats, a Pomeranian (who will be 14 this year). You name it I have probably cared for it! I just absolutely love animals and always tell people I prefer them over humans lol I have been working from home for 6 years and am able to easily manage watching over fur babies while I work. I get an hour for lunch as well which gives me plenty of time during my work schedule to go for walks if the weather permits. I have a nice fenced in backyard, a safe neighborhood and no kids. My dog is definitely a spoiled princess and I wouldn't have it any other way. I would love to spoil your baby as well!

Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just relaxing with a companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to every dog’s unique personality and routine. I’ll follow your care instructions carefully, provide plenty of updates with photos, and make sure your pup gets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind, knowing your best friend is in caring and reliable hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! [9:01 PM]Hi, I’m Josh! I’ve always loved being around dogs because they’re more than just pets—they’re family. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else, so my goal is to make sure both you and your pup feel comfortable from the very beginning. I’m the kind of person who enjoys getting outside for walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, or just relaxing with a dog that wants some company. Every dog is different, so I’ll take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what makes them happiest. I’m reliable, patient, and pay attention to the little things. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medication exactly as instructed, or making sure your dog gets the exercise and love they need, I’ll care for them the same way I’d want someone to care for my own. You’ll get plenty of photo and video updates while you’re away, so you can relax knowing your best friend is safe, happy, and in good hands. I’d love the chance to meet you and your dog and become someone you can count on whenever you need a trusted sitter. I work full-time at Amazon, which has helped me become dependable, organized, and great at managing my time. When I’m not at work, I dedicate my time to caring for the dogs in my care. I keep my schedule up to date and only accept bookings when I know I can give your pet the attention they deserve. Whether it’s before work, after work, or on my days off, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my priority. I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, love, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that lightly. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home from the moment they arrive. I provide a clean, secure environment where your pet will get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’ll follow your dog’s routine just the way you do, keep a close eye on them, and treat them with the same love, patience, and care I’d want for my own pet. I want you to feel completely at ease, knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands.

About: I’ve cared for animals for many years and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable providing everything from walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention to bathing, brushing, and basic grooming when needed. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping reinforce potty training, routines, and good habits. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet loves being active and playing, going on walks, or simply cuddling and relaxing, I’m happy to adjust their care to what makes them happiest. I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own pets. I’m available as needed for any pet sitting. If you have a specific schedule that is needed, I’m more than willing to abide by it. I currently have dogs in my own home and have had a cat. I have picked up some of my clients animals from their home to watch them at my house, as well as going to their house and caring for them in the comfort of their own home. I love going on walks and cuddling with all pets.

About: Hi! My name is Andrea and I’d love to hang with your pup! My preference is to house sit for you as I’m currently in a condo that might limit my availability to watch your fur baby in my home, but I’m open to discussing! I work remote, so my job allows me to work anywhere. It’s a win/win for you and me. If I go anywhere, I won’t be gone long or I’ll take them with me. I’ve had dogs in my family for all of my life. I had my own baby for almost 15 years and had to say goodbye a couple years ago (he’s pictured in the red wagon on my profile). I’d love to have another dog, but I haven’t found the right one yet. So in the meantime, I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family and found that I love it! I love all dogs and will love your furbaby as my own! I’m flixible and available last minute most of the time! My schedule is flexible. Because I work remote/from home, we’ll have plenty of play time. It also means less alone time and/or kennel time for your pup. I don’t have an enclosed yard, but I enjoy taking breaks from work to go for walks. And I promise your pup won’t be ignored. I can crate if needed, but I’d much rather take them for a ride in my car if I have to go anywhere.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Waynesville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,513 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Waynesville. 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 Waynesville. 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 Waynesville 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 Waynesville. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
