“Nicole walked my big dog while I was gone for a weekend. She was very thoughtful to make sure my dog had everything she needed and that they walked places where my older dog is comfortable. I would definitely recommend.”
“An amazing dog sitter! They were reliable, caring, and treated our dog like their own. I loved getting updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved them. I highly recommend!”

About: I have babysat many of my friends' cats in the past couple years. This past year alone, I have fostered and babysat 15 kitties! One of which I helped give birth. I have cared for kitties of all ages, and love spoiling all of them! Due to my small apartment, I have been mainly caring for cats. However, I grew up with puppies my entire life and enjoy caring for them as well! I am pretty active and would love to take puppies out for long walks :) My daily routine mainly consists of work at home and studying, so I am free most of the week to care for your furbabies! I am pretty active so if your pet enjoys long walks, I'm your gal! I live at home with 3 other adults who work ful time. Pretty large backyard with brick walls (likely not tall enough to contain a malinois). Safe neighborhood for walks too :)
About: I've taken care of dogs for most of my life since I was a teen. I myself was the proud owner of a miniature schnauzer for over 16 years, so I understand the desire to take excellent care of your pet, ensuring they are fed, walked, and most of all, loved! I would take care of your pet like they were my own. I'm currently searching for a full-time position for work, so I'm able to be more flexible during the week than what is typical when I'm working full-time in an office setting. That being said, I am flexible to take care of your pet during the work day or in the evenings for the time being! I am a calm and easygoing individual who would be able to follow instructions you leave for me in order to provide the same structure and routine for your pet that they typically have with you at home.
About: I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician with 30 years experience caring for dogs, cats, pet birds, chickens, small mammals, reptiles, and other "non-traditional" pets. In addition to dogs and cats, my own pets have included rabbits, ferrets, box turtles, parrots, finches, and even a Texas spiny lizard! Do you have a senior dog or cat that needs some extra care and attention during the day? Or a special needs pet that has unique medical needs the average person may not be prepared to handle? Or how about a new puppy that needs mid-day potty breaks while you are at work, and could also use a few extra minutes of training to learn good habits? As a Fear Free Certified Professional, I only use reward-based training methods so your pet will look forward to my visits! I currently work full-time from home. My work schedule is unique which gives me the opportunity to provide mid-day walks and drop-in visits, as well as evening check-ins. I value the trust you place in someone to care for your furry, feathered, or scaled family member in the same manner that you would. I have dedicated my life to caring for and providing medical care for other people's pets, and will look after your pets as if they were my own!
About: *If you would like me to do multiple 30 minute vists or walks, please book drops ins/walks. If you book house sitting please be aware it’s only one visit per day and I do not stay over night at a clients home* Hello, my name is Courtney and I’m your pets new best friend! I’ve always been told I have a “way” with animals and it has helped me create an understanding of them, their behavior and psychology. I was fortunate enough to be raised in a household with multiple dogs, cats and even exotics. The care and well being of animals is something I’ve been passionate about my entire life. In the future I’d like to go into the animal care or behavioral field so I’m trying to get as much experience in with as many different animals as possible! Special needs/seniors/etc are not a problem for me. I can guarantee that I will treat your dogs (or cats) with the same love and respect I show my own pack.
“Ashley is awesome! Our dog loved spending time with her and she always sends multiple pictures and status updates for us! We highly recommend her to take care of your pup!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and truly love caring for them. I have experience raising four dogs and a cat of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility, attention, and affection pets need. I’ve also cared for birds in the past, which helped me become more attentive and patient with different types of animals. I’m very gentle, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s personality and routine. I will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved at all times—just like they would at home. I work part-time but I am available to take care of your little friend on Mondays and Wednesdays from 12pm and on weekends Saturday and Sunday from 12pm I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in their own home. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions, routines, and preferences to ensure consistency and reduce stress for the pet. During walks, I always keep dogs securely leashed, stay aware of the surroundings, and avoid unsafe areas. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, ensuring they feel safe, cared for, and happy at all times. I am respectful of clients’ homes, reliable, and maintain clear communication, providing updates and photos for peace of mind.
About: I’m new to professional dog walking, but I’m reliable, patient, and excited to care for your pet. I’ll follow your instructions closely, prioritize your dog’s safety, and make sure they get the attention and exercise they need! 😊🤍 My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to provide walks throughout the day. I’m happy to work with pet owners to find a time that fits their routine and will communicate clearly if my availability changes. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep dogs securely leashed during walks, provide fresh water as needed, and make sure they receive attentive, compassionate care. 🤍
“We had Megan come in the morning for a walk and in the evening for a check-in. This is the fourth time we have used Megan. We have always been happy with how she handles Finley Magee. We highly recommend Megan, and we will continue to have Megan watch Finley. This was the longest we spent time away from Finley Magee. It was hard for us to leave your 4-legged baby and I know it would be hard for our pup too. Megan put us at ease with her detailed progress reports during each visit. Megan’s knowledge, flexibility, compassion, and patience is incredible. By day 3, Finley was jumping around and excited to see Megan. We are very fortunate to have Megan help us with Finely Magee!”
About: I currently have 2 dogs - Morkies (Yorkies and Maltese mix). Pets have always been a part of my life. Family and friends tell me that I treat my dogs like they are people; I say that I just love them and they love me. You can be sure that I would love and care for your pets just as much. Please don't leave them home alone. Contact me and enjoy your time away from home - your pets will be in great hands with attentive care. My schedule is flexible which allows me the opportunity to be home during the day, and all nights. Please, no aggressive dogs. I will make sure that your dogs are comfortable and safe with me. I have an 8' fenced back yard, with security cameras. I enjoy being outside with your furbabies and will provide that extra level of security when they are running around in the backyard. I have hard floors for easy clean-up. I also provide extra blankets to keep your furbabies warm. I also have a separate eating area set up for your furbabies. I keep one extra crate, if needed when you bring your dog.
About: Retired so I'm able to devote plenty of 1-on-1 time to care, play, and snuggle with your precious family member as if they were my own furr babies. I've also had my own dogs, like Norwegian Elkhounds, Labs and various mutts, as well as, small ones like Maltese snuggle buddies. I've also had the privilege of cats adopting me (felines pick their humans 😆) and entrusting me to care for 6 of their adorable kittens. Since I'm retired and other then working out for 1 hr 3x week and grocery shopping 1x week, I integrate my personal life around your pet and can cater to how much time they need to feel comfortable and loved. If you require my services in your own home, I'm a pretty quiet, clean retired and responsible adult. If you need boarding at my home, i have a clean, large backyard with a protective 8 foot fence for plenty of exploring and other fun activities.
About: Hello my name is Amy and I am an excellent caretaker. I have patience and understand that our dogs are part of our families and need time and understanding. I have had many animals in my life and have enjoyed all of them. Animals love me and I love them back. I will take care of your dogs as if they were my baby. I will walk them, play with them and pick after them. You will always be satisfied with my service. I know that interaction for an animal is very important. I will always be kind and attentive. I am available during the day from 8:45 am to 2:45pm. I can take your pet for a regular walk or to the park or lake. I hope give me the chance to have fun and care for your dog.

I cannot say enough good things about Matthew! He was so attentive and sweet with Nattie which means the world to me! Every visit he sent several photos showing her walks, poo's, etc and the big smile on her face. He walked her around the pond which she absolutely loved. He made sure she had food, water and treats and kept us informed on her eating amounts. She is a rescue baby and can be very "scared" of people but he was very gentle with her to earn her trust and let Matthew walk her! I forever grateful for finding Matthew and he is my only go to from now on!
Marisa is a thoughtful and caring sitter for my special needs dog, Helen. Marisa has top-notch communication, is prompt, and reliable. I am mpressed with her professionalism and commitment to go the extra mile with thorough updates. I trust her wholeheartedly to care for my deaf dog.

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 .

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:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
