About: I have extensive experience working with a wide range of animals, including wild, domestic, and farm species. My passion for animals runs deep, and I am genuinely dedicated to understanding their unique needs and providing them with the highest level of care. Whether it’s ensuring the well-being of pets, assisting with the rehabilitation of wild animals, or managing the health and safety of farm animals, I am committed to giving each one the attention and love they deserve. Caring for animals is not just a job for me; it’s a calling that I approach with great enthusiasm and responsibility. I love visiting other people’s pets and caring for them! I am currently a local artist and a SAHM! I have a 3 year old who also loves animals! My personal animals have a daily routine and their own bedroom. With clients though I make sure they give me a list of directions so I do not miss any specifics.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats growing up. I am currently a mom of 2 dogs in college right now. I take time in between classes to make sure my dogs are taken care of. I can always fit your pup in my schedule. No matter the day or time, I am always willing to help. I will treat them as my own. I am very trusting and respectful. All i want is to help you out when needed. Whether it is a quick check in visit, or a walk outside.

About: I have personal experience caring for both dogs and cats. I helped care for a small family dog for about 3 years, assisting with feeding, daily care, and attention. I also independently cared for my own cat for several months, managing feeding, cleaning, and overall care. Pet care has been part of my daily routine. I would come home during lunch breaks to check on and care for my pet, and after work I handled feeding, cleaning, and attention. I’m also generally free on weekends for consistent pet care and supervision. I make sure pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following any instructions provided by the owner. I focus on keeping pets supervised, maintaining their routines, providing attention and care, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure at all times.

About: My rates reflect the level of care and experience I provide. I’ve worked in both an animal hospital and a boarding facility, and I have over 10 years of hands on experience with dogs of all ages. I’m trained to administer medications (including injections) and I’m currently studying to become a veterinary technician. Your dog isn’t staying in a kennel they’re getting personalized attention in a safe home environment, along with knowledgeable care you won’t find in standard boarding. I’m also able to provide nail trims and ear cleanings for a small additional charge. My goal is to make sure your furbaby feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away😊 Pet care blends naturally into my everyday life because I’m home all day with my baby. We spend most of our time in the living room or outside, so having dogs around just feels like adding more family to our routine. I’m able to give them plenty of attention, snuggles, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. Since I’m always home, I can really focus on making sure each pup feels safe, loved, and comfortable, just like they would with their own family! In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play. I have a fully fenced yard and a friendly, playful Labrador who loves having company. I also have a cat who thinks he’s a dog himself and adapts to other animals very fast! I focus on creating a calm, welcoming environment where each pet feels like part of the family. Dogs get regular potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I keep routines consistent so they feel secure, and I always monitor interactions to make sure every pet is happy and comfortable.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life! I’ve cared for multiple family and friends dogs and will make sure your dog is treated like family! I administer medications, take them on walks, feed them their meals at the appropriate time and make sure they get enough exercise! I always make sure my schedule can accommodate the pets schedule so they are properly cared for. I work 4 hours during weekdays and 6 hours during weekends. I have a very flexible schedule so I am able to care for your pets needs appropriately. I will go outside with your dog every potty break to ensure they are safe. On walks, I always make sure I have a dog whistle on me to make sure myself and the dogs are safe. I also enjoy giving treats and cuddles to make sure they feel loved!

About: I have always been the go to nieghbor to help out with a pet. Caring for everythig from a tarantula to a horse has prepared me for whatever life decides to throw. I know how to train puppies but have a lot of experience with senior dogs. Being a nursing student I know how to act during medical emergencies for your pet without hesitation to ensure his/her safety. I currently work as a pediatric nurse a few days a week. Depending on the bread I love taking dogs on long hikes during a time of day with a safe temperature. I know some good spots! (Unless they don't like cars ill just keep it in the neighborhood) As for cats I like to have at least an hour of active play time with them. I am a believer in scheduled feedings but if you are not let me know! I love going on daily walks and enjoy socializing with animals. Giving attention to your fur babies will be the best part of my day! I will walk your dogs at least twice a day and try to make your vacation as fun for them as it is for you!

I also volunteered at a animal shelter and learned everything there is. i currently do not work so i am home and available 24/7 for any animal needs. i am always home with my animals playing and watching them play outside. I usually take the dogs out every hour or every two hours. They can run around a park and a pet area and go on walks when it’s not to hot.

About: I am thankful to have grown up in a home with many animals. Over the past 22 years, I have loved and had the opportunity to take ownership of about 8 dogs and 2 cats. They have all been lovely and I could not have imagined my childhood without them being apart of it. I have been fortunate enough to have friends at school that are pet owners and have been given the opportunity to build relationships with their dogs, and even get to care for them when they have been away. This has given me the chance to still connect with dogs, while being away at college. I thought, why not try to make this an even bigger opportunity and try to meet more dogs right where I’m at! We currently have 4 dogs at home and I have had the pleasure of walking and spending time with each of them when I visit home on the weekends or am home for holiday breaks. Every dog we have owned has been very unique, so I’ve learned how to tailor my care taking methods to each one of their individual needs. From our high energy pups who love to chase tennis balls to older dogs who enjoy a leisurely stroll, I’ve realized that every one of our furry friends is special in their own way and deserve intentional care and love! Feeding time, special treats, doggie cuddles, and bath time when necessary are always my top priority for your furry friend to ensure they are comfortable and feeling fully loved while in my care. Safety is always my top priority! I always make sure that safe leashes (harnesses preferred) are used and proper walking etiquette is performed to ensure a positive and stress-free experience for your precious pet! As well as your pets maintaining hydration in this hot Texas heat. I am currently working a part-time job Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9:00am-12:00pm, as well as performing as a full-time student at Texas A&M University. My week days are available early mornings before work and classes begin, along with afternoons in between classes for potty breaks, toy time, and special treats and later evenings for walks and end of the day care. Thursday through Sundays are typically my most flexible days and would be the most suited for pet boarding in your home, or my home. The weekends are consistently my most available days for any type of pet or home care. As a trusted pet sitter, I have provided care for countless dogs while their owners were away. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel comfortable and secure in their own environment, which is why I offer in-home pet sitting services. During visits, I ensure your dog receives the love and attention they need, following their regular feeding and exercise routines to maintain stability and reduce stress during your absence. I also have experience administering medication with my own dogs at home and would be happy to help in doing so with your dog. Please let me know in advance if their are any special instructions for this service. My goal is to give all of my clients a peace of mind knowing your furry friend is truly in good hands.

About: I've been caring for family and friends' dogs since I was 15. Currently, I help train future service dogs with canine companions. I also have two fur babies of my own whom I love. I'm currently working full-time at the Omaha Country Club as a pool service lead. My schedule changes from week to week, but I am available for most of the day during the week and all day on Sundays. I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have yard chains available. I currently crate my dogs when they are not at home; otherwise, they have free rein of the house. I want to keep overnight visits in the dogs' home, as I do not want to disrupt anyone's safe space.

About: Growing up in the country, I had access to all kinds of animals. I had a pet pig, chicken, and dogs. To me, pets aren't pets, they are members of our family. I have been apart of Rover for almost 2 years and still love it. I love meeting new owners and their babies! I'm also always taking on new clients! I am comfortable and have experience in giving your baby medications and injections. I work for Hendricks and my hours are Monday to Thursday 745am to 5pm, and Fridays 745am to 12pm. I only get a 30 minute lunch, which makes it difficult to do a drop in during the day. While I am not available to keep your "kiddo" at my own home, I am happy to stay where your "child" is most comfortable, their own home. If they are anything like my daughter was (a 12 year old basset hound) home was her place.

About: Growing up on and planning to own a farm, it's been my mission to love on and take care of animals. I've had horses, mules, cows, donkeys, dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and everything in between. From raising kittens to taking care of crazy bulls, I've seen a wide range of animals. I love them! I started Rover as a student in college, and I loved the stress-relief benefits I experienced because of it! As I transitioned to married life being an entrepreneur alongside my husband, it’s given us an alternative stream of income while still being a therapeutic source of fun and relaxation. I know it can be hard to not be constantly present to meet your pet's needs— we hate being away from our own cats and dogs! I would act as a stand-in for when you couldn't be there and do my absolute best to provide the exact same care you would treat them with yourself. Our animals are our family.

About: I’ve had a dog for 17 years of my life and love all animals! I have pet sit for friends and family; everything from cats, dogs, fish, and small rodents. I’ve had a senior dog before and also a puppy so I do know how to navigate those particular needs. I am an occupational therapy graduate student so I have a lot of free time throughout the day. I’m available every 2-4 hours for pet care and am able to spend time at your home if your pet needs some extra love and attention! Also, I’m available some week nights and weekends to board in your home. I have a very spoiled fur baby of my own! The safety, well-being, and happiness of your pet(s) are my top priority! I understand that leaving your beloved pet in care of someone else is a significant decision, and I aim to provide the highest quality of care possible that offers peace of mind for you!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Abilene

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Abilene on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 85 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Abilene. 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 Abilene. 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 Abilene.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 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.
