“Mitchell is communicative, reliable, and I really enjoyed seeing the way my dog interacted with him. He’s a top notch dude and a top notch dad, based on our brief conversations. Thanks for the help while I healed from surgery. If I can return any favor, let me know sir.”

About: At 19 I decided to become a dog groomer. Attended a grooming academy for 9 months part-time. Now going on 15 years Ive worked in Hostipal, salon and mobile settings. Clients have not only trusted me with giving them spa treatments, but have also allowed me into there homes to watch over there babies. I enjoy creating relationships with owners and their pets. I feel honored when trust is built over time and I get peep of excitement when pets see me. Working in the pet industry Ive learned and dealt with all types of pets. From senior to anxiety prone. I believe my calm demeanor allows me to build trust with nervous or anxious pets. I currently work part time so I have about 3 to 4 days that are open a week. The days are work are typically morning till early evening so I could possibly come by after a shift. I will follow your instructions on how and when your pets needs are met on a daily basis. If I am unsure, I will reach out and only when given your consent will I proceed.

About: Hi! I’m Danny, and I’ve been around animals for most of my life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, feeding, playtime, companionship, and basic grooming care like brushing and keeping pets clean. Some of the activities I enjoy doing with pets include walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch, tug-of-war, indoor games, light training reinforcement, cuddle time, and helping pets stay active and engaged throughout the day. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, neighbors, and family members over the years, including energetic puppies, senior dogs, and shy pets that need extra comfort and reassurance. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and making sure pets get plenty of affection and supervision. I currently work as a PT aide Monday through Friday, and my workplace is only about 5 minutes away from my home. Because of that, I’m available most evenings and weekends, and I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, care, and bathroom breaks throughout the day when needed. I’m dependable, patient, and responsive, and I always try to make pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident that their furry family members are happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and comforting environment for every pet I care for, and I’d love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets! My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to focus on pet care and spend quality time with your pets. I’m available on most weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, or house sitting. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special instructions. I keep pets safe, supervised, and comfortable at all times. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is being well cared for and getting lots of love and attention.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Our 5 children have grown and living on their own, so I currently have my sweet 2 dogs, Chica & Luna, who keep life fun, active, and full of love. In addition to my experience with pets, I've taught preschool and first grade, where safety, patience, and attentive care were always top priorities. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting (no overnights), and can comfortably administer oral medications when needed. I truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities, whether they're social and energetic, calm and relaxed, or a little nervous and shy. With a gentle demeanor and a strong understanding of animal body language, I take the time to build trust and help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. During my first year of retirement, pet care fits naturally into my flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care all day (no overnights). I provide attentive care for pets in their own home, helping maintain their normal routine, comfort, and security. I can assist with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, oral medications, and keeping pets happy and relaxed while their owners are away.

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care. I also have experience with cats and other critters, and I currently have all three myself, so I understand their unique needs and behaviors. I’ve worked alongside professional dog trainers, which has helped me build strong handling skills and better understand training, behavior, and safety. In addition, I’ve volunteered with animal shelters, giving me experience with a wide variety of temperaments and situations. I treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I offer open availability for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the day, making it easy to accommodate your pet’s schedule, I keep my calendar as up to date as possible as well marking any days I will not be available. For the comfort and safety of all pets, I provide care in your home rather than mine. I’m more than happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or just giving extra love and attention, I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care as my own.

About: I’ve taken care of pets the last handful of years. I would do anything for a dog or cat while their parents are away or just needing a simple walk around the neighborhood. I pay attention to detail. I give great cuddles and belly rubs, too! Right now, I am pretty flexible. I would work with what you need at the right times your pet would need feeding, walking or simply checking in on them. I will make sure safety is first. I would treat your pet as you do as much as I can! I want your pet to feel loved.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since childhood. Growing up we always had dogs and cats. As an adult I currently have a beautiful senior cat, a senior yorkie, 2 pugs, and a chihuahua. I have a huge heart and am big into animal rescue. I'm very good at dispensing medication to both cats and dogs. I have even become skilled at giving subcutaneous fluids to cats. When I watch your fur baby you can be sure that I will go above and beyond to make them feel loved while you are away. I send regular check ins and photos so you can have peace of mind when you leave your dog in my care. Right now pet care is my full time job. I have animals of my own so during the day I will of course be checking in on them as well. I sit small dogs, puppies or kittens only in my home. Any other small animals are negotiable. Please keep in mind I have animals of my own so if your pet is not good around other animals they can’t come here for boarding or day care.

“We had a wonderful experience with Christina! She is very nice, sweet, and incredibly responsive. We booked quite late, but she was supportive and accommodating right from the start. We really appreciated that she took the time to come and meet our fur baby the night before the scheduled walk. This helped us feel completely at ease. We loved the pictures she shared with us during the walk, and the report clearly shows he loved the experience and had a great time! We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again”

Dakota helped with Maple’s morning walk this week. We were in desperate need of Maple’s morning walk coverage due to work and life events. And they not only graciously accepted the request but also showed up all three days on time. He picked and dropped Maple exactly as per schedule and took very good care of her. We are really happy to have booked their services. Will surely book them again.

Aviana arrived right on time and was very communicative throughout the entire process. This was my first time using the service, and it was extremely last minute, but she was still able to accommodate me and kept me updated in a timely manner, which I really appreciated. My dog was very excited to meet her and clearly enjoyed his 60-minute walk—he came back happy and tired, which says it all! I would definitely recommend Aviana and will absolutely be using her services again.

Ashwini is fantastic! Our dogs, Rocky and Baylee, are always so excited for their walks with her. She is a true "dog person" who brings so much patience and care to her work. Beyond that, her flexibility with any schedule shifts has been a lifesaver. If you’re looking for a trustworthy walker who truly goes above and beyond, I can't recommend Ashwini enough!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Dougherty

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Dougherty is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $50 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.

As of November 2026, there are 14,044 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Dougherty. 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 Dougherty. 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 Dougherty 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 Dougherty. On Rover:

  • 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
