About: I have extensive experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who require special attention. I’m comfortable with administering medications, managing dietary restrictions, and following specific care routines. What sets me apart is my ability to provide personalized, compassionate care tailored to each pet's needs. Additionally, I’m trained in Fear Free handling techniques, ensuring a calm and stress-free experience for both pets and owners. My dedication to making pets feel loved, safe, and comfortable is at the heart of everything I do. I’m available for drop-in visits before and after work, depending on travel time and traffic. I’m also a part-time grad student, so my schedule may vary if I need extra time to study. I update my Rover calendar regularly to reflect any changes and will always communicate in advance if adjustments are needed. I understand I have clientele from all over the DFW area. I’m happy to accommodate long-distance drop-in requests for pet care, but please note that my rates will reflect the travel time, mileage, holiday dates and the level of care required. If your pet needs extra attention—whether due to medical conditions, behavioral concerns (such as aggression), or simply requiring more time for proper care—I will factor that into my pricing. Before booking, I will communicate a customized rate based on the distance, time commitment, and specific needs of your pet. My goal is to ensure every pet receives the best care while keeping my services sustainable. If you’re unsure whether your location qualifies, feel free to reach out, and we can discuss the details! I prioritize safety, trust, and a stress-free environment when caring for pets in my clients’ homes. I follow all care instructions closely, provide patient and compassionate care, and use low-stress handling techniques for anxious or reactive pets. Whether administering medications, managing special diets, or ensuring pets stay on their routine, I focus on their well-being while keeping pet parents updated with regular check-ins. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable experience for every pet while maintaining clear communication with owners.

I have been a dog sitter for almost ten years now, taking care of dogs around my community and family friends. I feel the best way to take care of your dogs is in your own household where I can keep them in their own routine! I would love to take your pups on walks around your neighborhood as well as doggy parks and other places with your permission of course! I am up for staying in your home (if you are on vacation) or dropping in every couple of hours when you need me to. Thank you for the opportunity to care for your sweet pups!

About: I've been a sitter throughout a majority of my life and have been exposed to all sorts of pets. Dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, even frogs! I spent a lot of my teenage years looking after my neighbors pets and my own. My parents were strict that if we were to have pets they were everyone's responsibility! I have definitely taken on that mentality throughout life, as every pet is precious and worth the love and effort. I'd love to be able to look after your fur-baby if given the opportunity—feel free to reach out! I'm currently starting my own art business, so my schedule is very open, I can work around whatever time you need me there for your pet! Whatever is your routine for your pet and household rules are, I will do everything in my power to uphold it! If you want walks, outdoor time, play time I am happy to accommodate.

About: I’m experienced with high-energy & large dog breeds! I focus on structured, alert walks and attentive supervision. Above all else, I prioritize your dogs routine & safety first. I’m currently working part time, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I tend to be more available in the mornings & afternoons, but am happy to do evening work should the need arise! My schedule tends to vary week to week, but my evenings get busy from Thursday to Saturday. Otherwise, I’m happy to help! Safety, structure, and home security are my highest priorities. For house sittings and drop-ins, I strictly follow the owner's established rules, keep entryways locked, and double-check gates/doors before and after any outing. For walks, I practice active leash management and remain hyper-aware of my surroundings—maintaining safe distances from triggers, bikes, and other dogs. I ensure fresh water is always available, and send detailed updates after every visit so you know your pet and home are completely secure.

We are here to help! We are new to Rover and joined to have a companion for our dog Chloe and to supplement our income while we adventure through graduate school.

At the park she pays no mind to the people and just wants to play with her furry friends! We have flexible schedules so reach out with any needs! We have a dog of our own.

Chloe, our dog, loves to be around us and sit out on our big fenced in deck. We keep the house picked up to ensure she doesn’t eat anything she’s not supposed to. We also have a toy bin in each room.

About: I've been a dog owner for more than 10 years. Through these years, I've loved learning about dog behavior and how I can be a better life coach to my dogs. Right now I have a very anxious 12 lb poodle mix who I enjoy taking out. I try to find ways to help with his anxiety and get him out of his shell. Feel free to contact me for a complimentary 15min meet and greet to see where our goals align. One of my top priorities is to take care of my own dog. We go on walks first thing in the morning. But overall, most of my time is spent working from home; therefore, I am available at your convenience For safety reasons, I won't be introducing my client's pets to other animals. Dog care will depend on the dog and how welcoming they are of a stranger into their home. Unless a dog is comfortable with me. I will most likely keep my distance, respect their space, and provide structure. I also do like to stay in communication with my clients with videos and photos

About: Hi I’m Ally! As a pet owner, I know it can be scary trusting your pets with a stranger but I want to set your mind at ease. I’ve had pets my entire life! When I was a kid we had hunting dogs that stayed outside and we had one really good inside dog, named Rosie. I was only 5 when we found her and she grew up with me and my sister. Since she passed I got a new dog who is completely my own. I housetrained her, taught her to walk on a leash, sit, come, “NO!” etc. Jokes aside, she is a wonderful dog. I bond with dogs easily and I am compassionate, loving and attentive. I have a flexible schedule that allows me continue housesitting and give your pets whatever level of care they need. I have experience administering medicine and with elderly dogs, as well as crate training puppies. If you have any questions feel free to reach out! 🐾🐾 Please keep in mind, rates are set to account for Rover fees taken out of earnings! I am fresh out of ministry school, so for now pet sitting is my only job! I have a few commitments here and there but other than church and the gym, there’s not much that pulls me away during the day. Whether your home or mine, your pet will be loved and cared for as if it is my own. My dogs are very spoiled and yours will be too.

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 Decatur. 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 , 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 Decatur 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 , 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 .

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
