About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets. While I have primarily pet sat for family and friends, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering lots of love and attention, or sticking to your pet’s routine, I’ll treat your furry family member like they’re my own. I’m also a proud pet parent to two cats and a German Shepherd, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I know every animal is unique, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I’m reliable, responsible, and committed to providing updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and giving them the same love and care I give my own! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Since I set my own hours, I can easily adjust my day for walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. I enjoy getting out of the house and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to. Your pet will receive dependable care, plenty of attention, and a schedule tailored to their routine whenever possible. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where pets can feel comfortable and loved. As a pet owner myself, I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I prioritize safety, supervision, and making sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and care while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of animals for about 14 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles and so much more. I have experience with elderly dogs. I’ve had to give oral medication to my senior dog on a daily basis and I have knowledge of giving cats oral medication as well. I know how to potty train puppies if needed as well. I am very reliable, as well as very caring. I try to make your animal feel comfortable in a situation they might not understand. If needed I can bathe your animal. I currently work from home so if I’m boarding an animal I am available to walk them ever 1-2 hours for a small period of time before I have to go to get back to work. I would be home all day so I can give them so much affection and ensure they are feeling comfortable during their entire stay. I’m usually off at around 7 pm so after that I am available to go on long walks, play much more, take them to the park if it’s allowed and much much more! If I’m not boarding and it’s just a walk or a drop in or whichever service you need I am more than happy to put all my energy into this puppy!! I have too much energy from staying at home all day and plus, what better way to be more active than with animals!! When I’m caring for any pets I am very vigilant. Whether that be at my place or yours. I like to keep things clean so my house will be very organized and anything that they shouldn’t get into will be put away in a safe place. If your baby is staying with me I do have a cat. But she has grown up with dogs and I swear is more of a dog herself than she is a cat. If I’m at your home I am very respectful towards your home and your items. If anything comes up I will alert you immediately. You will find that I communicate very well and will send you tons of cute pictures of your baby when she is under my care
About: Hey everyone! My name is Jess! I am a grad student and looking for some work. I have been around dogs my whole life and I'm quick to befriend them. One of my first memories is actually getting my childhood dog. I've been taking care of my current dog for the last 3 years and I love her tremendously. I trained her completely and she is well behaved and friendly which I contribute to my background in applied behavioral analysis (ABA). I have experience caring for my friends' and neighbors' pets when they've been away. I ensure that they said and get the attention they deserve via walks, playtime, and some quality time with pets based on what they like. Animals have boundaries too and I like to ensure I respect them. Please reach out if you have any questions at all and I would love to care for your fur babies! I'm a graduate student work part-time so I have a good deal of flexibility. I am unavailable MWF 9am-1pm and T/TH 2pm-5pm. Beyond that, I am happy to work within our schedules to take care of your furry friends! Ultimately, I want to uphold what you would normally do to care for your pet. I know from my own experience my dog is very set in her routines and I wouldn't want to disturb that for your pets. If we have any outside time I am very attentive of surrounding and ensuring safety. I also make sure the pets don't get into trouble in the side by getting into anything laying around. I'm very used to taking dogs on walks, playing in the backyard, playing with toys in the house, and just chilling with pets and giving them some attention and some good head scratches!
“I had Maliyah and Gabriel take care of my dog for four days (three walks a day), and honestly, they were just really solid people. They were always on time, kept everything consistent, and you could tell they weren’t just rushing through it. My dog can be a little particular with new people, but she clicked with them right away, which says a lot. Every time they came by, she seemed genuinely excited to see them. They made sure she was fed on time, took her on actual walks (not just quick bathroom breaks), and even stuck around a little longer to spend time with her. That part meant a lot to me, it didn’t feel like they were just checking a box. Overall, it just felt easy and stress-free knowing she was in good hands. I’d 100% reach out to Maliyah and Gabriel again.”
About: I had dogs of my own for a few years and loved them whole heartedly. I also watched dogs daily in one of my home health cases. I am capable of feeding, playing, walking and taking them outside regularly. If you have pets with special or silly needs, I can absolutely meet those as well! I am a college student. I will have plenty of time to play with and walk your animals in between classes and studying. Some fresh air and animal time will be a nice break for me. In my client's home, I respect any rules that they have with their pet (ie. If they are not allowed on the couch or in certain areas, food restrictions, etc.). I will make sure to be outside with them watching them, just in case. I will follow feeding schedules and make sure they always have water. I will play with them and brush them if needed.
About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, caring for our animals was always one of my favorite chores, and my family currently has a pack of 8 dogs (can't all fit in my apartment lol). I started caring for animals outside of my own family when I was 10 and have experience with everything from dogs and cats to hermit crabs, leopard geckos, bunnies, and guinea pigs. I currently work as a therapist and am exploring getting a therapy dog of my own, so animals have always been an important part of my life. I truly believe pets bring so much joy, comfort, and value to our lives, and I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same love and attention they deserve! I am currently a therapist, so my schedule is flexible and can vary quite a bit. Pet care is the perfect way to spend my time between sessions! I currently do not have another fur-baby yet, so your pet would receive all of the love and attention. I am also outside frequently, and live in a very pet-friendly area, so there would be plenty of space for your pet to run around.
About: I absolutely adore my furry babies! I have saved over 10 strays and got them loving and caring homes! I have lived with many as well! All breeds of dogs and cats!

“Kiley was a lifesaver for us! Our usual dog sitter/walker couldn’t assist us and I was able to book Kiley on short notice. She went to our home and took exceptional care of our 7 month old Yorkie, Dash! I can’t say enough about how great she was with him. We received updates and photos which we were grateful for. Thank you Kiley! We look forward to booking you again soon. -John and Brianna”
About: I've personally cared for dogs for the better part of ten years. Ever since I met my heart dog Jake thirteen years ago, I have had a love and passion for pets. I currently am an assistance dog training minor at my university where I get to train future service dogs. This has led me to know how to properly care for dogs and understand their behavior beyond a surface level. I am excited to get to know and care for your furry family! I am currently working full time, so I am available for care Fridays-Sundays. I can do weekdays if that schedule works around your pets schedule. I am comfortable working in any home environment, whether there be a backyard or no backyard. If their are any certain circumstances, I am willing to work around them given I am told about them in advance.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Winterville
booked this dog walker at the last minute, and she responded immediately. She was incredibly patient while waiting for the leasing office to provide my key fob, and she even took the extra step of returning to the office afterward to let them know my door needed to be secured. Her communication, professionalism, and willingness to go above and beyond gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend her and would gladly book with her again. Thank you!
I truly can’t recommend her enough! Skye is my whole world, so trusting someone else to care for her is never easy, but she exceeded every expectation. She was so kind, attentive, and treated Skye like she was one of her own. Her communication was amazing from start to finish. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my baby was happy, safe, and loved. It was obvious how much she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I’m so grateful we found her, and I’m honestly so sad we’re moving because I know Skye is going to miss her just as much as I will. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pet like family and make you feel completely at ease while you’re away, she’s the one. Thank you for taking such incredible care of my girl—we’ll always be grateful! ❤️
Caitlin did an amazing job with our golden retriever. She was prompt, communicated in a timely manner, and our dog had a great time. It definitely gave us peace of mind, knowing someone who actually cared for animals was caring for hours. We highly recommend her to others.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Winterville 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 310 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Winterville. 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 Winterville. 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 Winterville.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
