About: I grew up on a small farm, so have been taking care of animals essentially since birth. I have had anything from dogs and cats, to horses and chickens. All dogs and cats have been inside animals, with a good many of them being rescued or fostered. I am currently a self employed stay at home ceramic artist. I have two loving and spoiled miniature schnauzers, who are 5 and 6 years old. They spend every waking moment with me, even having their own space while I work. I have two friendly and non reactive miniature schnauzers. Dog safe, fenced in yard with security cameras in every corner. Daily walks around West Village, when the pavement temperature allows. I am home 99% of the time, but dogs are crated when I need to run errands, both for their safety and peace of mind.
“Jana has been great to work with, all the more so given that our dog is a rescue who was abandoned and suffers from an abandonment complex, albeit less so since getting Jana's guidance. We highly recommend Jana, especially so if you also have a dog with similar issues.”
About: I’ve owned big and small dogs! From a pit bull to a terrier. Took care of my susy girl for 10 years, she was diabetic so i am experienced with medication and injections. I am a student and work full time in the afternoons but I am free every Thursday and Fridays! and Sunday to Wednesday from 11-2pm. I can drop by or dog sit. I have one small friendly terrier who lives inside and is welcoming to all pets. 4 friendly cats. Fenced yard! Furniture friendly to all fur babies
About: Hi! I’m Kennedy, a 26-year-old animal lover who has grown up surrounded by pets my entire life—from dogs and cats to hamsters and birds. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of who I am. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for and pet sit for friends, family members, and neighbors, giving me experience with pets of different personalities, sizes, and needs. I now have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply keeping your pet company, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making them feel loved and comfortable while you’re away. I’ve always believed that dogs are one of God’s greatest gifts. They bring so much joy, loyalty, and unconditional love into our lives, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and give you peace of mind while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. This allows me to give pets the time, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making pets a part of my day and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is always safety, trust, and maintaining their normal routine. I make sure to follow all instructions exactly as provided, whether that’s feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, or house rules. I’m very attentive to keeping pets safe on walks and in the home, making sure doors and gates are secure at all times. I also take time to understand each pet’s personality so I can make them feel comfortable, calm, and cared for while their owner is away. I treat every home with respect and keep everything clean and in order, so you can feel confident your pet (and your space) are in good hands.
“Skylar was so amazing!! She was great at communicating with me about details the day before, as well as when she was on her way, she was on time, took lots of pictures, and took great care of my pup on her walk! My dog absolutely loved her from the start and we can’t wait to use her again! :)”
“Harriette was great with my very sensitive, very vocal pomchi! I received updates and she did everything I asked her to do. I’m extremely picky with my baby and I felt confident with him in her care. Will book again and again!”
“Jay has been absolutely excellent with our puppy. He is extremely reliable, courteous, and prompt with communication. I cannot recommend him enough to any fellow pet owners! Thanks, Jay!”
“Helen was great! She took great care of my dog and my parent's energetic dog. She took them for walks and hung out with them inside for a little while before she left because it was so hot out. Helen also made sure they had a full water bowl before she left. Will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“She was great on short notice while we were at a hotel and they loved her! She came in and got to know them then they loving body slammed her everyday on arrival they were so excited!”
About: I have been a multidog household for the last 20 years, typically 3 dogs at a time. I have had puppies to seniors in our care and am able to manage multiple needs in the same house. I am currently not working as my family and I settle into South Carolina so my schedule is more than flexible to meet your needs. I am happy to come to your house to play, feed, walk and interact with your pet. I thoroughly enjoy telling them all about my day and love when they "talk" back!
“Tonya was awesome. This was our first experience using Rover and leaving our dogs with anyone other than family. Tonya was accommodating on short notice, was responsive and sent pics of the animals to make us feel better. We really appreciate her care of our dogs and attention to our needs as well.”
“I'm so happy to have found Cherie! She is very responsive and reliable. She was wonderful with both my dogs and they took to her right away. One of my dogs is fearful and the other is a senior dealing with an injury. Cherie was great at dealing with both their unique needs. After the visit, she provided detailed notes with how everything went and I really appreciated that. It was obvious to me from the moment I met Cherie that she has a great love for dogs. I will definitely use her again. Thank you, Cherie!”
“Ideen is great. We have a new pup and he always gives helpful feedback on the dogs mood on arrival, how the walk went, and back into the crate. We highly recommend and we'll definitely use again.”
“Brooke was amazing!! She came to walk Tela within a half hour of my request and get her great exercise! Would definitely recommend her and will be rebooking with Brooke very soon! Thanks for taking such great care of my puppy!”
“Victoria really shined today! I was a bit under the weather and unable to meet her outside as I normally do. She took Great care of my furbaby. Thank you Victoria!!”

Jana has been great to work with, all the more so given that our dog is a rescue who was abandoned and suffers from an abandonment complex, albeit less so since getting Jana's guidance. We highly recommend Jana, especially so if you also have a dog with similar issues.
My regular pet sitter was out for several weeks, and I needed to find a temporary sitter— Chaniel was awesome! My black lab (older a quite stubborn!) did great on daily walks with Chaniel. She is great at communication and always kept me updated with pictures. Will definitely ask her to care for Charlie next time the need arises!
Alyssa was a wonderful Dog Walker for our very active dog, Ginger. She was attentive to details and was great with knowing what to do after asking a few questions. She took the time to warm up to her and a great job with taking pictures and letting us know how the walk went. We’ll definitely be using Alyssa again!
Athena took wonderful care of our young dog Lelo. She was incredibly kind and attentive, taking her on lovely walks to the park and making sure she felt comfortable and happy the entire time. We truly appreciate her care and dedication and are very grateful for the great experience. We can highly recommend Athena and would trust her again anytime!
Ana came to visit the day before to meet and took the time to understand what was needed to walk Max & Mazy. She took extra time to chat and we could tell she obviously loves animals and is trustworthy. Mazy is a new member of the family and was just adopted, so full of energy. She gave feedback on a couple of small issues as Mazy managed to escape her kennel after we left and had caused a little havoc. All went as smooth as possible, given a little craziness.
This was our first experience using Rover and couldn't have been more pleased with Megan. Our little guy seemed to love her and she sent pictures during each of her walks with him. She was super responsive to texts and I felt completely comfortable leaving for the day knowing she was coming to walk him and check in on him several times. Will definitely use her again if we ever come back to Greenville!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Welcome on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,810 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Welcome. 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 Welcome. 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 Welcome.

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 Welcome. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
