“Jacob helped us out in a pinch when we moved and we couldn’t be more grateful for his hard work. He cares so much about Penny and leaves photos and walk recaps. Hw is consistent and Penny looks forward to his walks. He was understanding and fair when we had two errors as owners (address not updated and key not left under mat.). Highly recommend!”
“Morgan is a gem! She’s always quick to respond, eager to take care of Blue, and a great personality. Looking forward to continuing our bookings with her in the future.”
“Al and Laura are wonderful with our super anxious dog Pepper. They are sweet and patient with her, and she has warmed up to both of them quickly just being with them on their walks while we are at work. She gets to spend the long weekend with them and I am absolutely sure she will be in wonderful hands and will have a great time with them and their sweet pups!”
About: As a work-from-home professional, I can keep your fur baby company all day long, and check in multiple times a day. Does your energetic herding dog need twice-daily walks or visits to the dog park? No problem -- they're just like the Australian Shepherd I grew up with and the Rough Collie I petsit regularly. I am also an ardent cat lover with experience caring for my aging childhood cat (age 20+), as well as a skittish rescue with seasonal allergies. If you have a senior cat who needs extra care or shy kitten who needs daily medication, I'm the petsitter for you. I have an extremely flexible schedule and can accomodate boarding every day of the week. I'm also available for daycare across Raleigh, although I may have more limited availability on Wednesday and Thursday nights, as well as Sunday afternoons and evenings. Feel free to ask about my schedule! I live in a townhouse with a small, fenced-in patio and my one cat. She is typically kept in a separate part of the house during boarding, so I can accommodate animals who are reactive to cats. The yard is great for smaller dogs who enjoy being outside, but I can also care for larger animals who need lots of exercise!
About: I have been around animals since I can remember. From caring for them, pet sitting for friends, and helping train behavioral pets. Pets bring an energy and love to a home, so I understand how precious they are to you and your family. I can ensure you that I will bring that same care and love to your furry family member My current schedule allows me flexibility. Afternoons and evenings Monday - Friday works best for play dates, however, I can manage mornings depending on the travel distance and make some room on the weekend if needed. I understand that every pet and household has different needs. I always follow each owner’s instructions and care routine while making sure every pet receives the love, attention, and affection they deserve. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. My care consists of: -Leash walks -Playtime with pets own toys (if requested in the care routine ) -Basic obedience reinforcement (sit, stay, leash manners) -dog parks if there happen to be one in the neighborhood -unleashed in the yard( if the yard is fenced in and requested by owner) - Mealtime( at the owners discretion) - Refilling water bowl - Grooming ( if requested in sitting routine) - Medication administration (if you’re comfortable) -Photo and video updates -Daily visit summaries -Quick responses to owner questions Courtesy Extras: -Bringing in mail/packages -Watering plants -taking out/in trash bins
“Alyssa was great with Koda! It’s been very difficult finding someone that we can trust with our best friend. Koda can be very stubborn at times and is very strong, so it takes someone special who understands dogs and can handle him. Koda was very excited when Alyssa would stop by to walk him! We’re very happy that we found Alyssa and look forward to having her walk Koda in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We LOVED Erin. Will call her again for sure. A lot of sitters are often overwhelmed with my dogs, but Erin treated them kindly and understood their behavior.”
“Whitney did a great job looking after our dogs while we were away on vacation. She was communicative and sent a bunch of pics. Would definitely book with her again in the future.”
About: I have had much experience with pets my whole life. Growing up I always had pets in the house. If there is anything wrong with the pet I will gladly be able to take them to the vet. I have volunteered at animal shelters to help get dogs adopted. Dogs bring me so much joy and are fun to be around. Even when I am a little stressed with homework. I love animals so much. It gives me such joy playing both inside and outside with dogs. I hope that by throwing the ball and playing fetch with each and every dog I will grow to love dogs even more. You know what they say "a dog is a man's best friend", and I truly believe that.
“Fang was a LIFESAVER. Last minute I asked him to take care of my puppy while I wasn’t home. He was trustworthy, prompt, responsive and even offered to take my older dog out as well. 10/10 and would use him in the future. Thanks for making my busy Sunday manageable, Fang!”
About: Hi! My name is Alex, and I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I've grown up with pets my entire life and have always had animals in my home, including dogs, cats, and even hamsters. Today, I'm the proud owner of a playful Maine Coon kitten and a sweet Miniature Schnauzer, so I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet because that's exactly what I'd want for my own. I'll treat your furry family member like they're part of my own family and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you always know how they're doing. By profession I'm a registered nurse, and I'm doing Rover because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending my free time with animals. As a registered nurse, my schedule varies throughout the week, but I know my shifts well in advance and keep my Rover calendar updated. On my days off, I have plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and giving your pets the attention they deserve. My goal is to provide reliable, consistent care while working around your pet's normal routine Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I always follow each owner's instructions carefully, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, exercise, or favorite toys and routines. During walks, I'll keep dogs securely leashed and avoid unsafe situations, and during drop-in visits I'll make sure your pet has fresh water, food, attention, and plenty of affection. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Nicole is incredibly reliable and so helpful. She regularly walks my dog while I am teaching, and has been able to care for pets when I needed to travel. I love coming home to happy fur babies who have been well-loved and cared for!”
“Excellent service! My dog Bouj seemed so happy in all the pictures Destiny sent me while I was away. She properly fed and took care of all of Bouj's needs, and I am very happy with her pricing and her patience towards animals. Definitely seemed like she loved, and cared about animals, definitely will be rehiring her in the future for all my other bookings!”
About: As someone who has had a pet their entire life, I could not imagine a world where pets do not exist. Through many years, I helped my family train puppies and fell in love with each of their unique personalities. I find so much joy in meeting other people’s animals as well and I can’t wait to meet yours! As I own two cats, I am responsible for feeding them and taking care of them in the mornings and nights, but I have pretty free mornings to spend with animals. I have a lunch break in the afternoon where I am able to spend time with a dog/cat and walk them for a bit if needed. And after I’m finished with work, I am around to feed and play and hang out with any animal. Coming into a client’s home, I know that the pet has a certain level of comfort and safety that they feel in their own environment that a new person can feel threatening to. I always try to take the pet’s lead energetically while honoring the client’s wishes regarding their pet first and foremost.
“Ozlen is the best communicator I have used on Rover! Top tier. She so obviously loves dogs and animals. The perfect type of person you would want to take care of your fur baby. My pup was shy and under the bed when she first arrived. She was able to coax him out for a walk by moving the furniture around. She went above and beyond. Could not recommend high enough!”

Julia’s been walking my fur babies for a few months now and she has been great!! She’s super communicative and takes the BEST pics. Today my one bigger anxious dog injured herself (mildly) and was freaking out, Julia made sure to communicate with me and was able to calm her down and stay with her as long as she could until I got home. Thank you so much❤️
This was my first time using Makayla, and Rover, and I was not disappointed. My dog George can be a special case and sometimes takes time to warm up to certain people but he loved Makayla at first sight! She was very detailed, thorough, listened and followed my notes regarding George’s care and had great communication and sent plenty of photos and details about his day. After a day my anxiety of leaving him with a stranger was eased and I was able to enjoy my vacation because I knew I left him In great hands. I will definitely be using her next time and am so grateful we found someone we could trust to love on my baby as we would have.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars! Absolutely incredible sitter, I could tell that she treated my babies like her own. I cannot recommend Brooklynn enough! She took care of my two precious baby girls this past week, and she was an absolute lifesaver. From the very beginning, she proved to be super flexible, communicative, and punctual. She provided amazing care for my girls the entire week, ensuring all their routines were followed perfectly. The daily pictures and updates she sent gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It is so clear how much she truly cares about animals.I will definitely be returning to her for future pet sitting and dog walking needs! I highly believe she provides true 5-star service. Thank you, Brooklynn!!❤️
Thank you so much!! This made my whole day 🥹 Jersey is my old lady so she definitely moves a little slower during the day — totally normal for her! So glad there were no soupy surprises downstairs lol. We would absolutely love to have you walk them again — so happy they were good for you!! 🐾💕
Me and my dog Kamron are really grateful to have found Saffiyah. She was super caring, patient, and willing to adjust with last minute changes. Kamron loved her from the first walk so we are saddened to see her go but we’re super excited and happy for her future endeavors. It was a pleasure working with you 🐾
I had a wonderful experience using Jennifer as a dog walker for my dog, Remi. This was my first time using a dog-walking service, and she provided a lot of peace of mind while I was away for a few days. Remi really values the comfort and safety of being at home, so it meant a lot that he was able to stay in his familiar environment and still be well-cared for. Jennifer shared meaningful updates & photos throughout her visits and kept me informed every step of the way. She was also very courteous even bringing in a package for me while I was gone. She truly went above and beyond to make sure Remi was happy and comfortable. I will absolutely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker.

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 Will-O-Dean Acres. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.

- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
