“Tetiana was extremely responsive when we needed a last minute dog walker for our pup Luna. She came right away for a meet and greet and had a great rapport with Luna. We will definitely be using Tetiana for future walks with Luna!”
About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life, but started taking care of dogs around the time I was 12 and moreso with cats around 13. We adopted a dog when I was 12 and I fed her, walked her, bathed her, taught her tricks, played with her, we'd even cuddle! We fostered a dog from a hoarder and had another dog after the loss of the last one and I continued to repeat the cycle with this big crazy whippersnapper! Where I was working part-time just closed for the season, so I have plenty of free time for playing with your pups and kitties!!! When I'm not in school, I'll be taking care of my pets and helping my mom out with them around the house, she does Rover too and recommended I get on it. For drop ins, I like to meet the pet first and learn about their likes and dislikes and where to find all of their things. I like to ask questions on how to make sure they feel most comfortable with a new person and try to follow that advice to make sure they feel their best. For walks, I like to get an idea of where they like to walk and any behaviors I can expect while walking them before we head out on our adventure!
About: I’ve grown up around all different types of dogs: Maltese poodles, labs, Frenchies, bulldogs, and more! I’m an occupational therapy assistant looking to make some extra income and share my love for furry friends! Currently I am on summer break and I am available for walks and visits any time of day. I am also available on weekends with booking in advance. I am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and strengths! I am very aware of my surroundings on walks and will take any precautions to ensure your furry friend is safe!
About: Hi, I’m Michelle! I bring over 50 years of hands-on experience working with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a former veterinary technician, I’m comfortable with everything from giving medications to caring for senior pets and puppies who need extra attention. I know how to spot signs of stress, discomfort, or illness early, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, training reinforcement, or simply making sure your furry friend feels safe and loved, I go the extra mile to keep tails wagging and owners at ease. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily routine — it’s second nature to me! I work full-time, but my evenings (after 5pm), Tuesdays, and weekends are dedicated to spending quality time with pets. At home, I share my life with two sweet cats of my own, so there’s never a day that doesn’t involve a little extra love, play, or purring. I also volunteer regularly at my local cat sanctuary, so even when I’m not with Rover pets, I’m surrounded by whiskers, paws, and wagging tails. Pet care isn’t just something I do — it’s truly who I am. I specialize in caring for pets right where they’re most comfortable — in their home! This means your pets get to stick to their normal routine, sleep in their favorite spots, and enjoy all the comforts they’re used to. Whether I’m stopping by for a quick check-in, feeding, playtime, or walks, or staying overnight to keep your pets company, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. My focus is on giving them the kind of attention and care they’d get if you were home yourself.
About: I’ve grown up with birds, a beautiful pit and now a rescue kitty! I enjoy playing with animals and learning their personalities. I’ve taught my cat many tricks and would hope to keep teacher her more so I can keep her happy and lovely. Im an online college student, co' 29! I have lots of time and flexibility to do walks and check-ins that accommodate you and your pet. I groom my cat once a week! She gets her suggested meals and I make sure she has her playtime to keep her happy and healthy!
“Tim came over for a meet and greet before our requested walks. The three times Tim walked Dozer, he was punctual, friendly and attended to Dozer’s needs. This is the first time using a dog walker. We would definitely ask Tim to do it again.”

About: My name is Cassy and I’ve been recommended for dog/cat sitting. I’m excellent with instructions, and have a warm heart for furry friends. Pets are the heart of the home! Medication administration is a important process that I take very seriously. I’m currently working as a Special Education teacher’sand would love to take care of animals in my free time. My work schedule starts at 9:00 am until 3:15 pm Monday through Friday. Let’s communicate our schedules and we’ll make it work for us and your furry friends. Thank you for opening up your home! I will come in and let your pets smell my hand to make a positive association while we have a chat about the best schedule for your fur baby. I will take care of your beloved pet in the comfort of your own home and the sidewalks of your neighborhood. Your best friend will be in good hands with me.

About: I’ve grown up with animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, horses) and I’ve been a pet owner the majority of my life! I’m known to most family and friends as the “animal whisperer” as I have a unique ability in communicating, observing, and creating a deep connection with animal friends. My calm demeanor will put your furry friend at ease! I have also dedicated my time to local animal shelters to provide love, care and attention to cats and dogs in need of homes. I’m a deeply empathetic and compassionate individual who has a special way with making our furry friends feel safe, comfortable, loved and cared for! I’m also a mother to 12 year old twin boys and a Mini Golden-doodle named Daisy! I’m currently working part-time as an actress and have a lot of flexibility to schedule house visits, daily walks and play sessions with your pups! Safety is number one for me when it comes to your furry friend. If a yard is not fenced in, I would make sure your pet is properly harnessed and leashed before we leave the house for an outdoor walk/play session.
“Elizabeth is reliable, friendly, punctual, and professional, and my stubborn dog took to her immediately. She brings a lot of positive energy and love with her, and I know my pup is in good hands with her. Looking forward to continuing to have her walk him on a weekly basis!”
About: I grew up with 2 dogs, one of which had special needs. I now own 4 cats and have helped raise a service dog in training. Animals are truly my passion, and I give my all to treat animals with all of the love, care, and respect they deserve. I’m a night shift nurse which leaves my days open for pets! Also, as a cat owner, I always make sure to leave time in my routine to be with my pets. I have experience in training dogs and have worked with animals who pose more challenges in the past. I leave everything the way I found it in other people’s homes.

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 East Texas. 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.

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 East Texas. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
