About: I’m a huge pet lover since I was a couple years old bringing stray animals home! I have 3 pups that are my world! I promise I will treat your pets as if they were mine. I have 5 years of experience as a vet tech so you can rest assured your babies are in good hands as I’ve had training in all kinds of medical situations with all ages of cats, dogs, birds, and most reptiles! I left my job as a vet tech to stay home with my baby the past year and I’m so grateful for that. Now that he’s getting older I am excited to get back into pet care. You can be at ease knowing your pets are in good hands and safe with me. I am a stay at home mom to a one year old so my schedule is very open. Whatever your needs I have the flexibility to make it work. I will pay very close attention to all your instructions and tips to best take care of your pets. I also have a great background in caring for animals so I know what to be cautious of.
“Hayley has been awesome! She’s great at communicating and keeping me updated. She follows instructions perfectly and even goes above and beyond. My dog, Otto, loves her :) I will definitely continue to book her.”
“Jennifer's care and management of our girls, Fiona the pittie, and Fiona, the African Grey, is superb. She has extensive and practical experience in the care of many species, and applies her knowledge to our girls. She has taken initiative to help Fiona (and me) to work on Fiona leash manners, and is cultivating a relationship with Wanda. Jennifer is prompt and takes your input seriously. I highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by various dog breeds and ages my entire life and learned to love senior dogs as my childhood dog grew older. I have experience with infant puppies to the late stages in life. I love to spend time with other people’s dogs because I 1) enjoy helping other people out but 2) can’t have a dog of my own right now and need somewhere to give all my love!!! I see clients throughout the week at various times, usually virtually, so my availability is pretty open! Fridays work a little differently, but I will also make sure to update you on that! I am free for check-ins, but also LOVE sitting at home with the dogs when I can - especially since I can use remote platforms! I will mostly stay overnight for people in their homes and take care of their dogs + give lots of snuggles while families are on vacation. I will feed the dogs, give them medications if needed, make sure water is kept clean and full, play in the yard (if available), take on walks, snuggles, etc :)

I can walk, play, feed, and take care of your pet as if they are my own. I am currently a full time online student, so I have a lot of time and flexibility for pet care. I only work Monday-Thursday. I have my own transportation and times can be coordinated. I like to provide safety, comfort, and structure to your pet’s lifestyle. I do best when given thorough instruction and will follow them to a T. Your pet’s happiness is my priority.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Alvin is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Alvin. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Alvin after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alvin. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 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.
