“We scheduled drop-in in visits while on a business trip. Alexis met for a consultation and then arrived as scheduled. She was wonderful to my senior dog, professional, sending reports and pics, and giving short walks too. I won't hesitate to book again and also recommend Alexis to others. Thank You.”
“Brandon did a great job caring for my dogs while I was out of town! I was provided pictures for each drop in and felt like my dogs were in great hands the whole entire time!”
“I know 30 for a tip is not a lot, but I wanted to extend a super thanks for working with me and the communication during the time of my fire. We are sorry to see you go but hope the new opportunity is all you hoped it would be for work! Thank you again! -Nala & Zach”
About: I've had several dogs over 40 years, some large and some small. Currently we have a 7 year old Rat Terrier and a 3 year old Golden Retriever. I frequently take care of as many as 4 other dogs from my family and friends, including puppies and large intact males. I've worked with several trainers, and worked with aggressive and reactive dogs. I plan to become a certified trainer within the next year. I'm currently working 20 hours per week as a consultant from my home in Ryan Place. I walk at least 2 dogs daily. I am very patient and have learned a lot about dog behavior. I have 2 very friendly dogs, and have a fenced yard. I walk dogs with a variety of leashes, collars and harnesses. I am careful to walk when there is traffic, people and other dogs. I always clean up after the dogs.

It was a great relief having her watch Effie, Jelly, and Herbert. 10/10 would rebook. Thank you So so so much Sarah!”
About: Experienced Pet Care Provider with Banfield & Operation Kindness I have hands-on experience in pet care, having worked with Banfield Pet Hospital, where I assisted with wellness exams, vaccinations, and client education on pet health. My role involved handling pets with care, ensuring their comfort, and supporting veterinary teams in daily tasks. Additionally, I have experience with Operation Kindness Interstate Transportation, helping rescue animals relocate safely to their forever homes. This involved coordinating transport logistics, ensuring animals’ well-being during travel, and working closely with shelters and adopters. My background reflects a deep passion for animal welfare, strong handling skills, and a commitment to providing top-quality care for pets in both medical and rescue settings. I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate ample time to pet care. This flexibility ensures that I can accommodate various walking times, including early mornings, afternoons, and evenings, based on pet owners' needs. My experience with **Banfield Pet Hospital** and **Operation Kindness Interstate Transportation** has given me valuable hands-on skills in handling pets with care and attentiveness. I am committed to providing reliable, compassionate, and punctual dog walking services to ensure pets get the exercise and attention they need. Safety, Trust, and a Positive Walking Experience When walking dogs, I focus on **safety, trust, and creating a positive environment** to ensure a stress-free and enjoyable experience for every pet. - **Safety First**: I use secure, well-fitted harnesses and leashes, avoid hazardous areas, and stay alert to surroundings to prevent any risks. I also tailor walks based on the dog’s age, breed, and energy level. - Building Trust: I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, pace, and comfort level, using positive reinforcement to create a trusting bond. Clear communication with owners ensures I follow specific instructions, routines, and preferences. - A Comfortable & Enjoyable Walk: Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an active walk, I ensure dogs get the exercise, stimulation, and bathroom breaks they need. I also pay attention to weather conditions and provide water or rest as needed. With my experience from Banfield Pet Hospital and Operation Kindness Interstate Transportation, I understand canine behavior, safety protocols, and the importance of responsible, compassionate pet care.

About: Pets have been apart of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with my family dog, there is nothing better than coming home from school and seeing how excited she was to see me. Whether it was her going crazy when I grab the leash for a walk or just hanging out together and watching TV, those moments show me how much joy pets bring to our lives. My goal is to make your dog feel that same happiness whether it’s you coming home from work, returning from a weekend away, or me stopping by for a walk or check-in while you’re gone. There’s no better feeling for an owner than knowing their pet is excited, comfortable, and cared for, and that’s what I strive to provide every single time. I’m currently a strength and conditioning intern at TCU so during the week I usually have early mornings and late nights but on the weekends I’m available whether it’s for a walk or check ins I’ll work with you to make sure your pet is taken care of I currently have an apartment that has a dog park and in a good area for walks sadly I don’t have a pet of my own and can’t do boring at my rental
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 and have worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to sweet senior companions. I’m especially skilled in basic training and reinforcing positive behaviors during walks and playtime. Over the years, I’ve owned and rescued dozens of dogs, which has given me a deep understanding of how to meet each pet’s unique needs. Whether your pup needs a little extra patience, play, or structure, I’m here to provide loving, reliable care. I am currently not working so I am available any time of the day to check in on your pet, walk them, or board them. I treat every pet like my own, always putting their safety, comfort, and well-being first. I’m trustworthy and have worked with many high-net-worth clients, so security and discretion are top priorities. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm environment in a high-end apartment with access to a private dog park and dog wash. I tailor walks and playtime based on each pet’s personality; whether that’s a relaxed stroll around the neighborhood, a scenic walk along the Trinity, or time at a local dog park. I always err on the side of caution and make sure every pet is safe, happy, and loved.

Robert D.
“I am absolutely thrilled to recommend Robert as a professional and trustworthy dog trainer/walker. He has been caring for my dogs for more than a year and has consistently gone above and beyond in every way. From the very first walk, it was clear that Robert has a natural rapport with animals. My dogs, one of whom (a spirited Chihuahua/Terrier mix) was always a runner when he got the chance, and the other a young, sweet Golden who constantly jumped up on people, took to him immediately. Both behaviors have been corrected, walks are always on time, and I receive updates—often with pictures—that show just how much fun my pups are having. It gives me great peace of mind to know that my furbabies are not only being exercised, but are also learning good habits and are genuinely loved and cared for. [Dog Walker's Name] is dependable, communicative, and incredibly kind. Rain or shine, I know I can count on [him/her/them], and that level of reliability is rare and deeply appreciated. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog as if they were their own, look no further. I truly cannot recommend [Dog Walker's Name] highly enough!”

“I highly recommend Jeremiah as a pet caregiver. With years of experience, they provide exceptional care, ensuring pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. Their attention to detail, kindness, and dedication are unmatched. I trust them completely with my pets and would recommend them to anyone!”
Melissa M.
“My roommate had gotten "custody" of a dog from a previous relationship and she had never really been trained. Needless to say, Luna was terrible and my roommate had too hectic of a work schedule to spend the time necessary to really train and socialize her. Melissa spent almost everyday that summer at our house working with Luna! She trained her to walk on her leash, not bolt out the door and run away, go to the door when needing to use the bathroom, and the biggest thing was not to jump and run around in circles every time the door opened. Luna is a much better behaved dog then she was and is now a pleasure to have in the house! Melissa is patient, enthusiastic, and very loving toward animals, even when they are as bad as Luna once was. ”

“Christi has a big heart for taking good care of all of the “fur babies” she cares for! She loves walking her own black lab and ensuring he gets the daily exercise he requires whether he is retrieving his beloved balls or walking on beautiful nature trails.

“I had Ashley take care of my pup and cat, she was wonderful with both of them 😊 Both of my babies loved her and wait in the living room watching the door just to see when she comes! I would highly recommend her, shes a very polite and caring sitter. I was running late one evening due to hard rain and she stayed until I got home since my dog is scared of lightning! Ashley was with both of my babies watching lion king when I came back (my dog’s favorite movie)😄.”

Fort Worth dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lauren was absolutely amazing helping out with my pup! Took the time beforehand to learn about her personality and needs. Which one of those things being that she’s not a big walker so she happily switched to a quick walk but staying to play fetch with her. I was also traveling for work which had some last minutes changes that she was so accommodating too! I’m so lucky I found her on rover and would highly recommend!
10/10 recommend. Ninabelle did a phenomenal job checking in on my dogs while I was out of state. She is incredibly kind, responsive, and went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend her!
Adelaide did an amazing job with even our most anxious pup. She took her time and gave them all the time they needed to run and have social interaction. She kept us updated and shared pictures and videos to help ease our worries about leaving the pups behind. We will be using her again!
Stella is incredible! She went above and beyond, was great with communicating with us, and loved on our anxious dog and cat so much. I could not recommend her enough, she truly cares about our pets and she gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Definitely the best Rover experience we have ever had!
Nathan did a great job with watching my dog while I was traveling. Things that stood out to me about Nathan was his on time check ins, how well he followed my directions, and the plenty of pictures and fast responses he would sent me. Nathan has a wonderful dog himself and he put aside time for our dogs to meet. My dog for sure enjoyed having a friend while I was away. Thanks again Nathan you did fantastic!
Rachel has been amazing! We are so lucky to have found her! She’s been so good to all of our pets and having her come by for drop in visits really puts me and my husband at ease when we are working long days. She sends us the cutest and funniest photos which also brighten our long days at work. She obviously loves animals and really cares about her clients pets.
It was such a pleasure to have Ella watch our two large dogs while we were out of town. She was very communicative and sent lots of adorable photos. When we returned from our trip, we could tell that our dogs had been loved on and were happy. She took time to play with, and even cuddle, with them. I would highly recommend Ella to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and professional caretaker for your animals. We will definitely be using Ella again, I know my dogs will be excited!
I booked with Mariana and Martin last minute, and they were absolutely amazing! Super communicative from the start, they made me feel at ease right away. They sent plenty of photos and videos throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. You can tell they genuinely care and go the extra mile to help. Highly recommend them!
Lucilla was great with all three of my fur babies! My dog barks at everyone new, but not Lucilla - he immediately warmed up to her bc of her warmth and friendliness with everyone. I will definitely have her back to take care of Chance, Pen, and Freddie. She sent pics and videos to let me know how they were doing which I definitely appreciated!
Kelsey thank you for watching Hank while we were away! I laid out a list of instructions for her to follow and she followed everyone of them. Our dog really enjoyed her company. Kelsey was flexible and send plenty of photos and commutates well. She offered to take Hank out one last time in the morning of our arrival something I didn’t plan on having her do but it took away the stress of hurrying back at the airport! Thank you again Kelsey! For sure will be using your services again!
