About: I am a private chef who spends most of the day baking, cooking, and playing with my Morkie, Brownie, and sweetie Black cat, Meryl. Brownie is small and friendly and gets along with all dogs. He has a bubbly personality, just like me! Meryl is an elder cat that prefers a sunlit window to a human but is very kind to humans and other pet visitors! I have experience with small puppies, large dogs, and cats of different breeds. I used to volunteer my time at shelters and rehoming spaces. I am home often enough to give love, attention, and potty breaks! I would love to spend time with your pet and help them feel more at ease while you're away. Available for walks and at-home check-ins! I work from home on my own schedule since I facilitate culinary spaces and non-profits. I can be flexible with different timing needs to support care! I have pet beds, feeding dispensers, filtered water fountains, and plenty of toys! I like to keep the home at a more room-temperature so pets (and myself!) can stay comfortable. In your house, I follow instructions and ask questions before I begin to care. I prefer to stay only in approved spaces in the home and know where all the needed materials are provided.
“They were very friendly, communicative, and clearly love dogs. My pup felt comfortable with them right away, and they handled everything with care and attention. It was great knowing my dog was in such good hands”
About: Have owned my own dogs and cats over the years. As they've grown older and passed on, I have satisfied my love for animals by caring for my kids' pets when they go on vacation. I've gone to their house and stayed, but also they have stayed in my home while mom and dad are away. We go for walks, and I have a fenced in yard and doggy door them to come and go as they please. Like my grandkids: I love having them and playing, but I also love the flexibility of sending them back to mom and dad! I am a retired teacher and am home most days. I have various errands during the day, or other things, but nothing that would interfere with visiting guests. I no longer have a dog of my own but our visiting fur babies ( and the grands) have a fenced yard with doggy door. Dogs are secure inside the back yard. I care for one dog, that loves the back yard and wants to stay out all day, weather permitting. He is safe and secure there with water and shade, and comes in when he is ready. But most of the dogs come inside. They are free to go out to play and do their business.
“Ella is incredibly awesome!!! She loves my pup so much and takes the best care of him. Ella is always reliable, always on time, provides tons of pictures and videos and gives very detailed feedback on how the walk or drop in visit was. She is super friendly and just an all around amazing pet sitter. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ELLA!!!”
“Rachel is great with My dog! He warmed up to her and enjoys going on walks with her. Very grateful to Rachel for being able to have some free time to walk my dog through my neighborhood when I have a long days.”
“Our boys had the best care ever! I loved all the pictures and updates when Kristina was out visiting Monti and Mikey! Definitely keep you at the top of the list for our future needs?”
About: I have had experience with animals my whole life, I had a yellow lab for 15 years and she sadly passed in October. I have an extreme soft spot for animals and love to help anyone out with their fur babies especially because I wish I could have that time back. I am currently a substitute teacher and sadly most of the schools close in summer so I have a very open schedule coming up and now! I spend as much time with them as I can, and I love playing with animals, taking them outside on walks and playing fetch! They are my main priority and I always keep an eye on them.
“Holly is great with my pup! She is very reliable and trustworthy! She frequently provides updates so I’m not worried at all! 100% recommend her for overnight stays and dog walking! Very trustworthy”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for friends and family for the past 4 years. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work part-time, so my availability varies during the week. I work full days on Fridays, but outside of that I’m flexible. I always follow your care instructions, keep a clean and secure environment, and make sure pets have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love.
“Jordan has been so great taking our dog on walks! She is reliable, has great communication, and our dog loves her daily visits and walks. Highly recommend her if you are looking for a dog walker!”
About: I grew up with Shih Tzus and have been surrounded by dogs my entire life. Most recently, I cared for our beloved Goldendoodle from her birth through age 16 wonderful years, gaining experience with every life stage—from playful puppyhood to senior care. Our family truly adores dogs, and my kids (ages 12 and 15) are pet-obsessed and gentle, attentive helpers. Your dog will be treated like part of our family, with lots of love, reliability, and trustworthiness every step of the way. I work part time and am typically available from Thursdays from 2 PM through Sunday nights. Depending on the week, my kids could be available to help out with pet care during their checkouts or if it coincides with their school routines. We live in a townhome one block from a large park/green space. My kids and I are very active and would love to walk your pup or take them to the park daily.
“Alyson has walked our dog many times and she has been nothing short of amazing! She always arrives on time, walks for the duration of the stay, and sends great photos. She is very reliable and has helped us out even on short notice. 100% would recommend!”
“Kaitlyn was so great to our dog, Cowboy. She walked him a couple of different routes and took him to our local dog park to sniff around and play 😁 we loved the pictures she sent and he absolutely loved her. We were a bit nervous since we never used a service like this for our only pet but we appreciate Kaitlyn’s outstanding effort, my husband and I highly recommend her!!”
About: My connection with fur babies runs deep. I have, often, felt more connected to animals than humans. I believe we all have had animals that we love but, usually, there is one animal that changes everything. You know the one I’m talking about….the one that the connection is (or was), somehow, different or deeper than the others. I call those animals Familiars. Maybe that resonates with you too. Either way, I fully grasp that trusting someone to take care of your fur baby is not just a big deal but, it is a privilege for someone to experience. I have thirteen years of experience taking care of different animals. This includes administering medications, providing senior/end-of-life care (I have a soft spot for the elderly), and learning to understand the language in which animals speak. I, also, have experience rescuing, fostering, and re-homing Australian Shepards. I believe in respect, safety, connection, and consent when it comes to animals. I believe that all animals come into this world to help heal us and I just want to be able to give back (in whatever way I can) a small piece of what they gift me, every day. It would be such an honor to help get to take care of, work WITH, and get to know your little (or big) ball of fur. As an Artist/Creator, my schedule is more flexible than most people. When planned in advance, I have ample time to make sure your fur babies are safe, happy, and healthy when you cannot be there! I ask a lot of questions so I can know and understand the specifics of what each animal needs. My primary goal is to make sure the interaction is safe, for both me and your fur baby. Then, it is my job to ensure your animal is comfortable, content, and they have a good time! I believe this can only happen by working with the owners (and then, with the fur babies).
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have experience with dogs, cats, and small animals, and spent four years working as a Veterinary Assistant in Wilmington and Chapel Hill. I treat every pet as if they were my own, offering patience, safety, and lots of love. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and deeply loved while you’re away. I currently work from home running a small business. I do not work every day. I am flexible and available to help you out when needed. I have a Labrador Retriever and two senior, friendly domestic shorthair cats of my own. While you’re away, I care for your pets as if they were my own. I follow your instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and take time to understand each animal’s personality and needs. I like to keep a log for you on how they did and how things went for our time together. We have a nice sized home to accommodate your furry friend. Pets are allowed upstairs. We are happy to have your baby sleep on his or her bed in our room at night, or a crate if that’s what they are used to. Please supply your pet’s favorite bed or crate. Pets are allowed on the couch. We have a large, fenced back yard for those pups that like to sunbathe or sniff around during the day! I focus on calm, gentle care, plenty of affection (when welcomed), and making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m attentive to behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I communicate regularly so you have peace of mind. I have experience with senior dogs and cats, puppies and kittens and special needs pets through vet time experience and personal experience.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wilbon
Ella has been fantastic with Cosmo—punctual, flexible, and really tuned in to him as an individual dog. She mixes up their walking routes, which I love because it keeps things engaging and mentally stimulating for him. It’s clear she understands different energy levels and how to work with a mixed breed’s needs. She strikes that perfect balance of being friendly and professional, and I always feel confident he’s in great hands with her.

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 Wilbon. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
