About: Your animals are an extension of your family, and they should be treated as such! I am a recent empty nester looking for some fur friends to love on. I have always been a dog mom but lost our last Springer Spaniel, Brody, to old age two years ago. Looking to help another family out with their fur friend on special occasions and overnights. I do not overbook clients. Each family will get individualized attention- no rushing out. If you are on holiday, we can discuss your animals current feeding/bathroom schedule so we can keep them comfortable while you are away. Daily in-home pet care visits are broken down into two (2) 30 minute visits. Each visit includes potty break, fresh food/water (if needed) and playtime. Overnights will be an additional service and you can be add an additional 30 minute visit for an extra $10 on daily checks. At each visit, I will take 2-3 photos of your fur babies and send you an update if you'd like! Every visit will be logged in detail (ie. walked pet, got mail, play visit, feeding and bathroom updates) and left for your records upon completion of services. We can discuss additional request if needed.

About: I have cared for many animals throughout my personal & professional life. I have experience from working at an animal shelter where I gained extensive knowledge on a variety of different dogs & cats. I am good with reactive dogs, escape artists, special needs (behavioral & medical), & this goes for cats as well. I have cared for animals newborn to senior & am familiar with giving medication if necessary. Friends & family rely on me to care for their babies whenever they need help. I love animals of any breed or size. I currently have a 75 lb catahoula, a 75 lb catahoula/pyrenees mix, & three cats ( two of which have only three legs). My schedule is flexible but I do work so just let me know when I am needed & we can work it out. I unfortunately cannot offer boarding in my own home due to my current dogs being reactive towards others ( recent rescues). I live minutes away from several parks & walking trails. I love hiking so I also know many different hiking trails varying in distance & popularity. I am familiar with crate training & can cater to any training that is currently used so as not to interrupt what is being learned.

About: I used to have a successful pet-sitting business where dogs could stay at my house overnight, instead of being stuck in overnight kennels. I had regular clients, but had to end it because I was in high school and doing other extracurricular activities. I've had dogs since I was a small child. They are my family and I would do anything for them. Knowing how much my dogs mean to me, I will treat other's dogs like I would my own. My schedule is very flexible and I have reliable transportation. I think it's very important to make sure dogs are comfortable, happy, and given the care each individual dog requires. Having the opportunity to work with dogs would be something I would love to do- it wouldn't feel like work.

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 Garland. 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 Garland 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.

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.

- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
