About: Ask me how to get $20 off your first booking!! Hi, I’m Gabby! I’m a dog momma to my Luna girl, a 9 year old Lab/Australian Shepherd Mix and Leala a 8 year old mixed breed. My girls are sassy & full of personality and I’ve had them since they were puppies. I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs & cats and have been the go to person for animal care for the people in my life and beyond that for many years. I have about 20 years of experience when it comes to caring for animals. I have cared for dogs & cats of all ages, breeds, personalities, & medical needs! And even fish & lizards! We promise to give lots of love to your fur baby. I know every animal is unique and assure patience and a willingness to take the time to get to know them! ** Please note that my dogs would be with me for house/pet sitting & walking which would provide fun & socialization for your dogs as well!** A little about me: I’ve been a nanny, an animal caregiver, elderly caregiver, & I worked in hospice for 8 years (direct patient care as as a volunteer dept supervisor where my goal was to find and match volunteers of all kinds with patients to improve their quality of life) *FYI: extra tasks (other than caring for your animals) will need to be discussed and there may be an extra fee.* I have a flexible schedule. My pups eat twice daily, but we can incorporate whatever feeding style your fur baby needs. Most of my life revolves around my pups so that means it will around your animals as well! I know it takes a couple days for us and animals to learn each other and will be understanding of that while meeting your fur baby where and how they need. Please just let me know what your pets needs to be cared for and to feel loved and we will go from there!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes big and small. My aunt would go on vacations and leave me with the dogs. I’m good with high energy dogs and calm dogs. I would also love to take pictures of your animal to send during my time with them! I work night shift so I go in about 3pm and all morning I would be available to take care of dogs which would work for a lot of people considering they work during the day I have a big back yard that I could take them on a walk around if need be, my bathtub is pretty decent size if baths are needed. I would follow any list of instructions needed. If I were to go into someone else’s home I would leave things just as they are and make sure the pet is comfortable and content to the owners likes and needs

About: I keep water out all day so they are not thirsty. I feed my dogs once in the morning and then before bed. I take them put multiple times a day either to potty or play but they are always on the leash. I play with them inside also. I'm a big cuddler with pets if the animal will allow me haha. They are allowed on furniture bed or couch does not matter. My daughter is a big animal person too she loves both dogs and cats and will sit there and watch TV with them or even fall asleep on them haha. I have had 6 years of personal experience with animals they have not be consecutively but all together it has been 6 years. Im a stay at home mom so im pretty available aside from the random appointments. I have 3 kids that all love animals and always want to play with our own animals or help feed and water them. They want to be the ones to let them out to potty and feed them. I have a big fenced in yard for the dogs and kids to play and run in. They are allowed on furniture so we all cuddle up on the furniture. I also have some dog toys. I can offer a separate space for those dogs that want to me alone.

About: I have had pets my whole life up! I'm a full time stay at home mom with 3 kiddos (2 in school and 1 not in school cause shes a baby!) I am looking to earn a little pocket change while hopefully helping someone out with their fur babies. Most times I will have to come with my baby in her carrier for now, but certain times I may be able to work around that, so please dont hesitate to ask! I am willing to travel as far as Kansas City/Overland Park, Pittsburg, and Joplin/Springfield, or basically within an hour and half for house sitting. As a mom I am not able to stay in your home for house sitting, I could consider pet care inside my home on a case-by-case basis. For daily walks, we will have to agree on a price if its farther than Nevada, El Dorado Springs. I live on a few acres with cats, a dog, chickens, and ducks. I have experience with a lot of different types of animals as well including fish and smaller caged critters. I have experience working with service dogs as well. If you have any questions, please reach out! Im super flexible and would love to be able to help you any way that I can. I am a stay at home mom with 2 of 3 kiddos in school. My schedule is very open. Whatever work you're needing with your animals, please reach out. Animal care in my home will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Animal care in your home will be as requested by you. I typically could not do overnight care as I've got kiddos in school and will most likely have to travel a bit to help you with your animals, but on weekends or breaks I can consider it.

About: I truly believe pets become very lonely when left at home. Animals need fresh air and lots of love and play time. I currently have two very loving, playful 2 year old Bichons, and I love them dearly. I would be overjoyed to get paid for playing/walking/tending to your pet while you are away (: thank you so much for considering me! I’m currently working part-time on, but I have a free and flexible schedule for your pet needs on Thursdays and Fridays, along with the weekends. I can be as flexible as needed because I know every pet differs. I have two fur babies at home and will soon have a fence. I am able to crate your animal at night if I’m providing pet sitter services, and I’m also able to provide updates as frequently as you would like. I love to be active and be outside, so walks are no problem either.

About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up on a farm caring for many different animals. I currently foster dogs and provide them with a safe, loving home. I have a fenced backyard and a well-trained guide dog, Daisy, who helps new dogs feel calm and assists with potty training. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to be home often and respond quickly to any needs or emergencies. I’m a Rover sitter offering doggy daycare with weekday and weekend availability. Please feel free to message me if you’re interested! I'm working part time right now, so my animals learned to be crate trained and potty trained very quickly. I always make time for my babies. My job is very laid back so i can come home for any emergencys. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, age, and energy level. In my home, pets are cared for in a safe, structured, and loving environment with supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, enrichment activities, and plenty of rest. I follow all feeding schedules and instructions provided by the owner and reinforce positive behaviors such as potty training and crate comfort when appropriate. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines to maintain consistency. This includes feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication administration if needed, and providing updates and photos to keep owners informed and reassured.

About: I worked at Summit Pet Care for four years. I worked in the daycare, front desk, and kennels department. I have made valuable relationships with several clients. For those clients I have pet sat for them while they have been out of town. I have also walked many of their pups during a busy for them. I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and the rest of the week make time to exercise my own dog. Along with getting online classes done for UCM.. I care for my pets by always getting them with a clam but happy energy. First thing I always do with any pup is take them outside making sure there are no accidents in the home. If I am just meeting the pup I always allow them time to get used to me and make sure I am a loving person.

How I care for my pets in my home🐶, I am walking them in the mornings & at night time. I take them to the Lake in my town to swim, hike, walk, and play. We are always doing something with the pups, I believe they deserve to see the world like we do. I also just got a new puppy so I am working on training her myself.

I will take care of your pet just as I would take care of mine.. like they are my number one priority in the world. Well I have a pet of my own. I like to go on morning and late afternoon walks and always have time for play time. I feed my pets the right amount of food and I can follow a feeding schedule if need be.

About: Looking to make some extra money for my wedding by helping take care of your pets! I also can't get a dog right now because of my landlord, so I'm hoping to try to make up for that by loving on other pets. I've grown up with dogs my whole life, including two huskies that are active and shed like crazy. I also regularly dog sit for friends, family and coworkers. Please give me the opportunity to give your pet some extra love! Right now, I work Wednesday through Sunday over night which means I have plenty of free time during the day to play with your pups! I think part of knowing how to take care of any pet starts with the basics and then grows as you get to know their personalities and quirks. I want to make sure they are as happy as can be, which means lots of walks, play time, and pets.

About: I absolutely love taking care of home pets! You will feel stress-free with me while taking care of your animals until you return home. I believe that animals need more love and care than just being let outside and fed. I have house and pet sat for two summers now, and I really love it! I am home from college, looking to have a simpler job during the summer! I am fully available all week and usually the weekends as well unless I'm on a trip! Very open to anything. I have a fenced yard for my pup at home, which helps them have more fun outside! I could also crate the animal if that is what is needed.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Austin

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Austin on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 444 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Austin. 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 Austin. 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 Austin.

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 walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Austin. On Rover:

  • 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
