“Sarah has taken my boy on a number of walks. He just loves her. She is always prompt. She follow directions perfectly. She is a gem. I’m thrilled we found someone so responsible and kind!!”

“Bethany did an amazing job! I was in need with very little notice and Bethany accepted the job and made it so easy. My pet was taken care of and I didn’t have to worry. I would recommend her a thousand times!”

About: Just starting my experience taking care of animals. I love animals and have a cat of my own. I am very responsible and patient and ready for any challenge. It will be just me attending to the pets. I work in retail and I am a student now but have time in between my days to care for animals. I live with a cat and take her to the vet frequently to get her shots and make sure everything is okay, she’s inside and outside and I make sure to feed her and play with her everyday. My brother found her outside and since then I have taken her to get spayed and taken care of her ever since. I’m very patient and don’t mind cleaning up any messes. I love dogs and cats and see my mom’s dog frequently and let him out multiple times a week.
About: I’ve taken care of animals while their family is away on vacation or work. I grew up with dogs and cats. Always have loved to be around them! My work schedule allows me to have most early mornings free as well as all evenings. I would love to get some regulars to love and take care of ❤️ I am very willing to work with how you keep your dog safe! I will follow whatever is needed to keep both of us safe and happy!
About: I have such a love for animals. I speak to them at all times, even when they’re passing by with their humans and I just tell the animal to have a great day. They make me so very happy, and I love to make them happy. I have 2 cats of my own and 5 niece and nephew dogs I have cared for and spoiled rotten for many years. I don’t get tired of playing, feeding, singing, or walking animals. I have just left a very emotionally draining job, caring for elderly humans and ensuring their happiness is always met. Now I’m ready to start fresh and have free time to care for your (furry) loved ones and ensure they are happy and healthy. I am comfortable caring for pets however they (and you) are comfortable with our visits. Their wants and needs is what’s important to me, and I will do my best to do what is needed.

About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve learned how to care for all pets. Dogs, cats, goats, chickens, bunnies, llamas. Hopefully your dog won’t spit on me like my llamas did ;) I adore all animals I love getting on their level to play, teaching them new tricks with clicker training, and back massages (‘cause even our pets need that sometimes too🥲). Your pet will LOVE their time at Camp Hanna. Bring em over! I work from home and where I cannot commit to a pet full time just yet, I’d love to help you out and host your best friend for as long as you need :) Lovely multiplex townhome on a quiet street. We have grassy side and backyard and several wooded walking trails. I go on walks between calls multiple times a day and would love to take your pooch out on the leash and work on their clicker training.
About: I have always had a big heart for pets. This includes cats and dogs. I enjoy being around them, feeding them, and cleaning after them. I work full time for a nonprofit, but have flexibility. I’m mostly available on Fridays-Mondays. I currently care for doggies and cats in my own home. My doggy is on a feeding schedule and get regular walks. He enjoys playing tug-a-war with me and enjoys having me the one to fetch his toys. I easily get along with animals and enjoy playing and exercising them.
About: I have had pets my entire life, specifically cats and big dogs. Currently, I have two cats - Ramona and Lawrence. It would be an honor to care for your pets for you. I am currently working as a therapist. I'm currently in training 9-5, Monday-Friday, my schedule will be pretty flexible after training. I have a reliable vehicle. I am a very safe and responsible person and would absolutely ensure the safety of your pets. If you give me rules, I will make sure they are followed. I'm also sober and a non-smoker.
About: I have been an avid animal-lover and caretaker since the age of 10. I spent my youth volunteering for animal shelters, fostering dogs, and taking my own pups to obedience and agility classes. I have worked on farms with livestock and assisted my sister with her dog-grooming clients. I have cared for a number of senior dogs and cats and have administered various medications. I am eager to work with pets of any age, though, and I have experience caring for fish, rodents, cats, dogs, horses, cows, chickens, and other birds. I am currently self-employed and working part-time. My schedule is very much open and flexible, so I am able ensure your pet takes first priority! I am quite aware every animal requires different levels of care and attention. I provide serious attention to detail when it comes to all of your pets' various needs and habits. I welcome thorough instructions based on owner preferences and will see to it that your fur-babies are cared for respectively.
About: Hi there! I’m so excited to be back on Rover after a little break—and even more excited to meet your furry family members 🐾 I bring over 20 years of hands-on pet sitting experience, caring for animals of all kinds, personalities, and needs. From energetic puppies to sweet senior pets, I’m comfortable providing attentive, loving care tailored to each pet. I also have experience with animals who have disabilities or require a little extra patience and support, and I’m confident managing households with multiple pets—keeping everyone happy, safe, and on their routine. I was a Rover sitter for 5 years previously, and I’m thrilled to return doing what I genuinely love. You can count on me for dependable care, clear communication, and lots of affection for your pets while you’re away. I treat every animal like they’re my own—because they deserve nothing less! I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby 💕 *REPEAT CLIENTS WILL RECEIVE A DISCOUNTED PRICE* 9/26/25 UPDATE PLEASE READ DETAILED STATEMENT AT THE END OF THIS INTRODUCTION IN REGARD TO THE REVIEW LEFT BY DEBBY THAT WAS COMPLETELY UNTRUE- UNFORTUNATELY ROVER WILL NOT DELETE REVIEWS REGARDLESS OF THEM BEING A DEFAMATION AND COMPLETELY FALSE. MY DETAILED RESPONSE TO THE REVIEWED LEFT BY DEBBY- I wanted to give a detailed breakdown of what happened with Debby since rover will not take down the review even though they did a thorough investigation with photos/video and nasty messages sent by Debby to me. I took on this booking even though I had a gut feeling not to, but I ignored it and I wish I had not done that. I was asked last minute by Debby to care for her diabetic cat, she told me her cat was great with strangers and would have no issue with taking the insulin shots from me (lie number one). The morning of my first visit, Debby had messaged me informing she had birds in the house and to not pay attention to them.. now let me start off by saying that due to a past traumatic experience with a previous clients birds, I have developed a fear of being near them in close spaces (to which she pokes fun at in her review) and had I known she had them, I would not have accepted this booking. I was hesitant to enter her house but she said they were in a cage so I proceeded with the visit, upon opening her door one of the birds almost FLEW OUTSIDE because they were NOT in a cage(lie number two). I was immediately concerned by this not only due to my fear of birds but due to this being a safety risk considering the birds could’ve flew out the door if I didn’t get to it in time. After this happened, I wanted to turn around and leave but I couldn’t because I needed to give her cat an insulin shots. After I went upstairs, I could not find the cat anywhere and after ten minutes I found her hiding under the bed hissing at me, she was in no way friendly towards strangers. I did my best to get her to come with me, I was at the visit way longer than the scheduled 30 minutes to try to make sure her cat got the shot. After I was finally able to lure her out with a treat, I had to quickly grab her and administer the shot.. she clawed at me and bit me several times (photo proof was sent to rover). I was very taken back by this visit due to unexpected birds and a cat who was the complete opposite of what their owner described. I felt unsafe to continue the booking and feared that due to the cat’s unwillingness to come to me that she might not get her shots injected properly so her health was my number one priority, I immediately called rover support to report everything that had happened and I also informed Debby at the same time. Debby was awful to me, made fun of me and treated me with complete disregard and through all of that, I still remained calm, collective and professional. After she had hinted at threatening me, I cut off all contact with her and immediately reported that to rover as well. At that point it was now rover and Debby’s responsibility for the cats care, I felt even more unsafe after the awful things Debby said to me. I didn’t have to but I even worked with rover to find another sitter and wanted them to make sure they made others aware of the trust situation, I even offered to take the cat it’s vet or local cat sitting agency but that was denied and rover told me they would handle it all. After one week, I found that my rover account had been suspended and I had to call rover and speak with over ten different reps in one week to get my account back.. finally after they realized I had done NO wrong and it was all the pet owner, I got my account back and a lengthy apology from Rover. Upon getting my account back, I noticed Debby had left that review and I was devastated by that. I have worked so hard on this app to give the best care for others animals and that’s been proven by every other review just for hers to completely destroy all the good I’ve been doing by lying. I’m truly upset with Rover for not only allowing that review to be left there, but for allowing Debby to even still have an account after her lies, threats and defamation. I hope that no other rover sitters go through what I did with her. With all of that being said, I refuse to delete my account and start over as I want people to see all the good I’ve done and to be aware of what truly happened with Debby. I hope to continue to provide the best care possible for all my current rover clients and future ones, please do not let one woman’s lies deter you away from someone who truly loved and care for animals with her whole heart. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you book with me ❤️ I have a pretty flexible schedule and am usually able to take same day bookings! I’m always willing to work with you to help you get the best care for your animals. I offer the same unconditional love for my pet to yours as well! I love having detailed lists for your animals, especially if they are special needs. Rest assured your animals will be in great hands!
About: Animals have always been a passion of mine. I would most definitely take care of your dog or cat as if it were my own. Ive taken care of dogs with disabilities for example my mom’s shih tzu has a bad back and cant walk well. And ive taken care of large breeds such as great danes and golden doodles. I love animals i think they are so much fun to be around and their spirit just leaves you so happy. I have 3 dogs and 2 reptiles in the home. But on top of being good with animals i also am excellent with people i have been a manager trainer. And spokesperson for many of my jobs. I look forward to getting time to spend with your furry friend in the hopefully near future. I work a full time job as a caregiver for seniors but it's a standard 9-5 job so I am only gone 8 hours at a time. And home when I am off I don't go out much. I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs and 2 reptiles. Everyone is friendly and all our own dogs are crated if not home.
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I could walk. I’ve owned many breeds of both cats and dogs and have cared for all of my pets through their whole life span I am working part time, so I have plenty of time for visits and walks during any time of day. My schedule is super flexible. I can work with any breed or age of pet. I have experience with both cats and dogs and enjoy playing and loving on them.
About: I am a 63 year old cancer survivor who is now disabled! I would love to babysit your pets for you in your home! Anytime! I have 2 dogs & 5 cats I now pet sit for. I am a true animal lover. I have 3 cats at home whom I love very much! This would be the perfect job for me. Although, I don't think of petsitting as a job. I would love to play with or walk your dogs for you. I would treat your pets with as much love as you do! Have been pet sitting for 4 years. I like to play with the dogs, take them for walks. Size or breed doesn't matter. All dogs are welcome! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover for 25 years. I have had several (4) dogs in my life. The first was a german shepherd hybrid with wolf. She was beautiful! My husband had a little terrier mix who stayed in the house. We also had a black lab & a mutt named July. If I could have a dog now, I would; but I don't have a fenced-in yard. I really don't want to leave a dog on a chain all the time. My experience administering medication I can administer oral meds. I’m currently not working so im available week days & weekends. I’m very flexible & don’t need a lot of time before job. I really love animals! I can’t board animals. I don’t have the space. In other peoples homes I can play with their pets & enjoy taking them for a walk.

About: I studied equine studies for a year on a boarding farm in Oklahoma where I not only worked with large breeds such as horses, cows, donkeys, but I also worked with many dog breeds, and of course many cats.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 252 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Austen. 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 Austen. 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 Austen.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Austen. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
