About: I have raised two Australian Shepards myself. I have taught both of them all the basic commands myself. I am very patient and understanding. I just love being around animals as much as possible. I will give your pet plenty of attention including playing and exercising your pet. I am currently taking classes online so I am open nearly every day to take care of your pet. I am very flexible and have my own reliable vehicle to get to where I need to. I may currently be a little higher than other, but I will actually stay night and day to take care of your dogs. Not just to show up let them out and feed them In my home my pets are completely spoiled. My Aussie is always by my side including sleeping at the foot of my bed. My dog gets daily exercise. I am perfectly fine with treating your pet like my own or setting boundaries if you do not allow your pet on furniture. I also have experience with caring for horses. So I have no problem dealing with large dogs
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a gentle, caring nature and a deep respect for each pet’s unique personality. Whether it’s a playful pup who loves adventures or a shy dog who needs a little extra patience, I adapt to their needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I’m dependable, trustworthy, and detail-oriented, so you can relax knowing your furry child is in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re my own — with plenty of affection, belly rubs, and walks that leave tails wagging! 💕 I have a very flexible schedule. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with and love on your pups! I am happy to take care of your fur baby in your home or mine. I have a friendly cavapoo who can keep your fur baby company, and two kids that absolutely love to cuddle and play with your dog! Dogs are welcome on the furniture and in beds— and I will happily do whatever works best for your dog— if they prefer the crate or their dog bed.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I grew up with cats, a St. Bernard, as well as farm animals including cows and chickens, which gave me experience with pets of all sizes and personalities from an early age. Today, I’m a proud cat person with four cats of my own and a very loved granddog who keeps me active and reminds me how important daily walks and attention are for happy, healthy dogs. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets while they’re out of town, whether that means drop-in visits, staying with them, or making sure walks, feeding, playtime, and cuddles all happen on schedule. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. My goal is always happy pets and peace of mind for their people. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide reliable walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship while their owners are away. I enjoy building pet care into my day and giving each visit the time and care every animal deserves. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully while providing plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also respect your home, keeping spaces clean and secure while sending updates and photos for peace of mind.
About: I am a lover of all things flora and fauna. I grew up with three dogs in the house, all different sizes. I cared for my 16 year old lab mix from her animal shelter adoption until her passing a couple years ago. Since then, a wonderful cat adopted me and I couldn't be more grateful to have another pet to love through this season of life. I've also owned and cared for a menagerie of exotic pets from gerbils and fish, to snakes and bearded dragons. I love animals more than most people and spending time with them always makes me a better person. I am comfortable with medication routines as well as any normal needs your pet may have. I am a 32 year old freelance writer and photographer, so you know I'll be sure to share pictures of your pet while you're away! I've also spent a significant amount of time volunteering at local shelters and was the organizer of an annual pet shelter donation drive for a few counties throughout West Virginia and Virginia. Animals and their welfare are one of my true passions in life. Thanks for reading and hope to meet you soon! 🐱🐾🐶 I’m a freelance photographer and writer, looking to live a more active lifestyle. I’d love to take your dogs on a midday potty break, or provide your cat with some attention and a snack ☺️ I am also available after 6 p.m. most weekdays and from morning to evening on the weekends! Unfortunately, I cannot offer boarding services at this time, but I am happy to visit your home to provide walks or food and water throughout the daytime and evenings.
“Hannah has been great since the first day she started! She loves the dogs and she gets them out for nice walks while I am unable to walk them. She shows up at the agreed upon time and is very reliable! Hannah is definitely a great dog walker.”
About: I have taken care of dogs that needed to take medicine and have dog-sat one hybrid dog for the past 9 years. Depending on the amount of time I am able to have with the pets, we often go for 3-4 hour long walks/runs a day. I do work full time away from home. I’m looking to make some extra money while in-between jobs so I can pay bills. But I am extremely passionate about animal care, and I’m hoping if this turns into something long-term then both you and I will be happy. I am unable to provide home services through my own place because my complex does not allow animals. But the environment I can provide is walks, jaunts to dog parks and—if permitted—hikes on fun trails.
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have been a pet sitter since I was in high school! I have experience with puppies and adult dogs and I treat all animals like they are my own! I am on break from school and have a very flexible schedule throughout the week. I am available for drop in visits pretty much any time! I am able to give dogs and cats the attention they need during the day while their parents are away. I am flexible throughout the week, whatever you need!
About: Willing to feed, walk, play with your furry friends! Administer any medications as needed. Willing to take care of your pets as directed, will give lots of love and care! Send me a message to arrange days/times, can be flexible! Weekends are always good, as well as evenings. Let me know when and how I can help! Will provide safe and positive experience for pet and owner. Excited to meet and take care of your furry family. Will treat you’re pets and home as my own!
“Elle is the very best! Conscientious and loving towards our cranky old dog, she won him over and we all are so sad to see her go onto bigger and better things! (Especially Woody!) Thanks Elle! You rock and deserve only the highest of praise! I give you SIX stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I have had dogs, cats/kittens, rabbits, hamsters, rats, mice, fish, snails and hermit crabs. But I have pet sat all kinds of lizards, birds, ferrets, turtles and of course cats/dogs. I am comfortable administering medicine and have experience with fear reactive animals. If you’d like me to take your dog on a run/hike I would absolutely love to. I’m very active and love being outside. If your dog needs more mental stimulation I can play games with them/teach them some new tricks! I am a teacher so I can visit before and after work throughout the week, and since i’m off on the weekends, I can be more flexible then! Unfortunately I cannot bring cats/dogs to my home unless my dog gets along great with yours! I could potentially bring animals that live in a cage though. I’m very comfortable visiting animals in their own homes, as that is usually less stressful for them!
About: I have hands-on experience from interning at a veterinarian clinic and working for a year with a local pet care company similar to Rover. As a pet owner myself (two labs and a tabby cat!), I know how to handle walks, feeding, bathing, medications, and more. Your pet will be in caring and capable hands! 🐾🫶🏼 Between classes and work, Tuesdays, and weekends work best for me! Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I am pretty busy, but am able to do early mornings and evenings those days! I provide attentive, personalized care by ensuring pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of affection. I follow routines, administer medications if needed, and maintain a safe, comfortable environment in both my home and clients’ homes.
About: I have lived with dogs my entire life! And I now have had lots of experience watching other people’s dogs as well! I can’t wait to take care of your pup! I have availability throughout the whole week currently. But that is subject to change. I like to spend my off days outside going for walks and enjoying the weather when it’s nice. I like to listen to the clients instructions because every household and every dog is different and has different needs so making sure I follow their rules is the most important thing.
About: Hello! My name is Kelsey! I am 26 years old and I am from Johnson City, Tennessee. I recently moved to Knoxville, TN for a job opportunity. I have had a love for animals since I was young. I have taken care of animals just about my whole life! I have shadowed in a veterinary clinic, volunteered at a doggy daycare/boarding business, dog sat, and have pets of my own! I have 2 dogs and a cat of my own and have had chickens and even goats so my animal experience is extremely vast! I offer pet sitting and walking. I am extremely flexible and will try my hardest to work around your schedule to make everything more convenient for you! I will love and take care of your pets like they are my own! :) I clinical rotation is currently Tuesday through Friday in Hoover from 8-4:30. Monday’s are very flexible for me, as I have class but hours tend to change. I lived in at the end of a quiet neighborhood that does not get much traffic other than neighbors that live at the end of the road. My two friendly dogs would love to keep your dog company!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 8 years through my mom’s pet sitting business, The Funky Monkey. During that time, I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, administering basic medications, providing companionship, and following owners’ care instructions. I treat every pet like my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work part-time as a server and just completed nursing school! I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on most weekdays and weekends, and I can often accommodate last-minute bookings. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I take the time to build trust with every pet and ensure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I prefer to schedule a meet-and-greet before the first booking so both you and your pet can feel comfortable and we can make sure it’s a great fit. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have been doing petcare in California for the past two years. I am independently insured for pet walking and sitting. Growing up in Tennessee, my family had a running total of 10 cats and 2 dogs. We had kittens, strays, and elderly pets. All of our cats were shorthaired, but my grandmother had a longhaired cat. I briefly took care of another longhaired cat that a friend found in his neighborhood. He couldn’t keep it and knew I had experience with cats, so he called me and I took it in until we found its owner. The dogs I grew up with were very different. We got Hook, our black labrador retriever, from a breeder. He came with a pedigree and everything. Years later, in his old age, a corgi mix showed up at our house. We weren’t able to find her owners and we ended up keeping her. I credit her with keeping Hook alive a little longer. I know how much of a difference our animals can make. I have done petsitting in the client’s home and in my own home with pets, often with multiple animals at one time. I even kept three guinea pigs for about a week in December 2023. In Tennessee, I worked as a volunteer at a local animal shelter, reading to cats and dogs through a program designed to help socialize the animals. I am unable to pet sit animals in my current apartment, and would treat it as a privilege to be let in your home in any capacity. My current job is a flexible, part time, remote job that I can do from anywhere. This leaves me with a lot of availability for your pet! I am patient with animals and I never take my emotions out on them. There are times where I have had to be firm with animals, of course, (can you imagine keeping 6 cats off the counters? Or keeping our corgi mix from nipping at our black lab while she tried to herd him outside?), but I’ve never been mean or lost my temper with an animal, and our corgi was a Mess™. I can clean traditional litterboxes and have familiarity with some higher-tech ones. I understand body language cues from both dogs and cats. As the daughter of a former landlord, I understand the frustration that comes with letting someone in your home just for them to take advantage of you. Therefore, you can be certain I will maintain the utmost respect for your belongings, your home, and your pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Garland on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,160 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 your Garland. 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. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Garland.

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:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
