“Isabella was amazing. She was punctual and communicative. She sent us great pictures of our dog while we were away. Her rover cards were detailed and complete. We are happy to have found our new dog walker. We will 1000% be using her again in the future!”

“Timothy did an amazing job with my two German Shepherd. I hired him to take them out twice a day to relieve themselves but he also walked them which was wonderful. One tends to pull if he’s in the mood, so it’s no easy feat. The dogs loved Timothy and were excited to see him each time. I am recovering from surgery. Timothy was on time and super responsive. That was such a relief because another person on Rover had ghosted me before he was set for a meet and greet. Thank you so much Timothy. I will definitely use him again and recommend him to take care of your pets”

About: I have cared for cats and dogs at all life stages and I have experience giving medication, giving lots of love and attention, scratchies and play time! I have a flexible schedule and have availability to do drop ins, walks, and feeding 7 days a week at scheduled times for dogs and cats. I am also open to day boarding your pup up to 50#. For Drop in visits I will make sure your fur baby has fresh water, potty break, loving, play time and treats if allowed. I will also bring in mail/packages if you would like. Daycare in my home I have 1 cat and 1 dog, a crate if needed and fenced back yard. Your pup must be up to date on all vaccinations, flea and tick, and heartworm and provide proof of records. Your pup must be house trained and well behaved in order to day board and a scheduled meet and greet in my home prior to care, for the safety of all of our fur babies. I will not accept dogs that display aggressive behavior towards people or other pets.
About: I’m currently a college student, but I only have to be on campus two days a week for a few hours, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’ve completed multiple pet- and house-sitting jobs for friends, family, and people who were referred to me through them. My stays have ranged from a few days to a full week. I have experience caring for small dogs, large dogs, and cats, and I’m comfortable learning and following each pet’s individual routine. I also have two pugs of my own who I regularly care for while my mom is at work and I’m doing my classes from home. Taking care of my own dogs has given me plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and making sure they get the attention and care they need. I also have experience caring for both indoor and outdoor houseplants, so I’m happy to help keep your plants and home cared for while you’re away. Over time, I’ve found a special love for caring for animals while their families are away. I know that being away from their family and normal routine can be stressful for pets, and it makes me genuinely happy to be there to give them comfort and attention. I love being able to help them feel safe, happy, and cared for until their family comes home. I understand that pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give every pet the same patience, love, and care that I would want someone to give my own. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention and care. I have two classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with a break between them that gives me time to check on pets if needed. I also currently work as a host about 2–3 days a week, although with school starting I may reduce that to around 2 days a week. I’m careful about balancing my work and school schedule so that I can still be available for the pets I’m caring for. There will never be a day where my school and work schedule keeps me away for an extended period of time without being able to check on your pets. I want you to feel confident that your pets will receive the attention, care, and companionship they need throughout your time away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get their walks and exercise, and receive plenty of playtime, attention, and companionship. I also understand that every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow specific instructions and routines that help them feel comfortable while their family is away. For house sitting, I treat my client’s home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m happy to bring in mail, care for indoor and outdoor plants, and keep the home clean and tidy while I’m there. My biggest goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both the pets and their owners. I want pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home until their family returns. I am no stranger to asking questions when instructions are unclear or if I am unsure about something while house-sitting
About: I've cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I treat every pet like they're my own. I'm patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet's unique needs and routine. I provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of love and attention so pet parents can feel confident while they're away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I have a part time and only work 2-3days a week so I have an open schedule to do a lot of caring for your pet. I have a fenced yard and a dog at home that is playful with everyone.I will also follow each pet's regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions provided by their owner.
About: I have owed dogs of all shapes and sizes throughout my life; and have taken care of many of friends and families dogs. All dogs that I have owned I have trained well and treated well. I love going on walks with dogs and you can be assured they will be well fed and groomed. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and can plan pet care around my family’s routine. I’m available for drop-in visits and walks during the day, as well as the occasional night time visit. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents ahead of time to find a time that works best for everyone. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care while keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities! I’m a dog mom myself, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. I follow your instructions closely, respect your pet’s routine, and make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I’m happy to follow any specific feeding, walking, or care instructions to help your pet feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I worked in the grooming department of PetSmart as a bather while getting my nursing prerequisites many many moons ago, and I loved that job. Prior to that I have had my own dogs, helped train my mom's dogs and animal/home sat for countless families beginning around age 10. I just love loving on just about all creatures. ( I am more of an admiring observer of snakes and spiders!) I love being a Nurse as well, but compassion fatigue and burnout are much higher risks in that field. So I swore, if I ever had the chance, to spend more energy and focus on being with animals, I would. My goal is to build more experience in this world and have that experience inform a pet care/boarding brick and mortar business, while meeting new people through their pets. I am skilled at blending fun with a high level of professionalism. I look forward to meeting you and in building a stellar reputation in the pet care space. Currently, I am flexible for daily care anytime and/or to care for your pet anytime you travel or go on vacation, as long as I get enough notice. I recently decided to step away from my administrative role in healthcare in order to ward off burnout and get back to caring for others in a different capacity after some rest and reset time. I love caring for animals large and small and this will give me a chance to re-connect with the things I love, allow me time and practice in getting back to simple pleasures, slower pace, and still meet my nursing heart needs; by having people and pets to pour my caring nature into. Though I do not have a fenced in yard, we do have a great neighborhood to walk in, with sidewalks, paths/trails into wooded areas that then open up to an open field and will take them on walks 4 to 5 times per day. My husband and I are newlyweds and since I am a newly recovering workaholic, we did not have time for a pet. This means now that I have time, I can prioritize your pet. Does your pup like to hike? So do I!. Happy to take him/her on a hike if that's a desire, often times my husband will join me so you'll have two human friends watching over your furry family. I don't typically like to socialize dogs (especially puppies) at dog parks (I like to socialize them with dogs I know until they get older and/or we have had enough time to build a trusting relationship with one another), but if your dog is used to dog parks I am happy to take them to your prefered dog park. I am active so my default is to do things that I can include them, i.e. anything from running to Home Depot to get something to taking them out to eat and enjoying some patio time. I was trained in human care as a nurse but do have experience providing first aid to pets. Because I was a bather and weirdly enjoy it, I am always willing to do more than just clean off visable dirt. I am game for hours of brushing and beautifying your pet. Do you have a dog that hates baths and makes it near impossible; we can work on that. I will treat your home with the care and attention to detail that I would want given to mine. In fact, for an additional fee if you need anything on your property organized, cleaned, gardened, etc.. while I am there and is within reason, I love to keep busy and would be happy to discuss what I can help you cross off your to-do list. Happy to do grocery or supply runs, pick-up laundry, make pet food from scratch, etc... I am here to make life easier and enjoy your animals in the process.

About: My family has had numerous dogs and two right now. I love to play,go for walks with them and give them baths. I’m a little shy at first but love animals after meeting them. As a mail carrier, my work schedule can vary from day to day, but I have the flexibility to stop by and check on pets throughout my workday when needed. I am also available after work at any time, making it easy for me to work pet care into my daily routine. Whether your pets need feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or simply some extra love and attention, I can work with your schedule to make sure they are well cared for. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and trustworthy looking after your pets, and I would love to help give you peace of mind while you’re away! I will not being sitting in my own home. I have my own dog at home. I have a long haired dachshund who is seven.
About: I am an experienced pet owner! I grew up with dogs, ferrets, snakes, lizards, fish, frogs, parakeets, and much more. I also volunteered a lot of my time caring for, and walking dogs at the animal shelter. Nothing brings me greater joy than watching my friends’ fur babies when they are out of town (which they frequently ask me to do!). I am a HUGE animal lover. I have excellent communication skills, so you will never have to wonder how your baby is doing - I’ll be sending you daily updates while they are in my care. :) I treat every pet like family! I let them roam freely (depending on your preference!), and make sure they go potty and get exercise. I love cuddling and making sure they feel special!
About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.
About: Hi! I'm Jessica, and I'd love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own. As a teacher and mom of four, I'm dependable, patient, and responsible.

In addition to caring for my own pets, I've volunteered at animal shelters and have experience fostering animals, helping them feel safe, loved, and cared for while they waited for their forever homes. Those experiences have taught me how to work with pets of different personalities, energy levels, and needs.

I’m also available on weekends, school holidays, and throughout the summer, giving me extra flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and extended pet sitting. My career has taught me the importance of reliability, communication, and responsibility, so you can trust that your pets will receive consistent, loving care whenever you need it. I understand that trusting someone with your beloved pet is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to provide a safe, dependable, and loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

About: Growing up I've always had a special place in my heart for dogs. I’ve got experience of 10 months at an open play facility specifically for dogs. I also have experience in senior care and more temperamental dogs who need a little more time to trust. I have a Pembroke welsh corgi who is 3 and is completely spoiled and knows it. My goal here is to make sure your dog is happy and stress free while you’re away!🐾 I currently work part time. I have every weekend off. And 1 day thru out the week off. I usually get off right before the sunset so perfect timing for night walks when it’s not so hot on the pups. (Please note I can only edit my availability out so far due to my schedule at my part time job. I update my availability as soon as I get my schedule.) 😊I would be more then happy to meet ur pup! As I do drop in visits, I will always make sure your dog has clean water and exercise. I can feed any kind of food/medication as I do understand every dog has a different diet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Garland is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 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 1,090 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Garland. 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 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. 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 Garland. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
