“Nicole was amazing with my 4 yr old dog Rosie. I'm so glad to have found her. Rosie is 80 lbs and can be nervous around other dogs so I was a little anxious about letting someone else walk her. I had nothing to fear, Nicole had a calm and capable approach and Rosie took to her easily! I'll definitely be booking with her again for both Rosie and my cats!”
“I can’t recommend our dog walker enough! Adrian consistently went above and beyond every single visit. Not only was he always on time, but he also sent a text before arriving. What really stands out is the level of care he provides. He took extra time to clean our dog’s paws after walks, which is something we truly appreciate, especially on muddy or rainy days. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with and treats them like his own.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since childhood as owner but also the strays that come along! I have also volunteered at the animal shelter and adoption agency and not afraid of the pet duties that come with dogs and cats. I work full time remote Monday to Thursday. Available any time Friday to Sunday for this weekend trips that come up. Walks or dog sitting while working is not an issue for me or my employer. I do have one dog and one cat, but can crate pet if needed and have their own space & to fulfill their needs. Yard is not fully fenced so walks will be main source of outside time.
“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!”
“Ashley is great. She is always on time and very responsible. Our dog loves her and it’s always excited to see her. She has a very keen awareness of what he likes and doesn’t like, and what he needs. I would definitely recommend her.”
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.
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. 🤍
“I'm so grateful to have Megan watch Finley Magee. I know I can trust her with our dog and in our home. She is so great to work with and is flexible when interruptions happen.”
About: Animal lover with many years of experience, tons of references can be provided, founder of a non-profit animal rescue. Your dog will beg to come back I currently work remote from home other than occasional visits to clients in the metroplex. Dogs are frequently let out in 2-4 hour windows (unless special needs are requested and I will gladly accommodate) for potty and play time Fenced backyard yard, two senior dogs, a standard poodle and a Chi-mix, who are pet friendly and are accustom to having all ages and breeds of dogs come for occasional boarding.
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: I have taken care of animals all my life , from the age of 4 I’ve had cats and dogs around me in and outside of the houses we have been.

Very clean and organized , not chaotic just me and my parents . I usually only house cats unless it’s worth it for me, as I’m more cat
About: What sets me apart is that I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure pets get plenty of love, exercise, and attention while you’re away. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies who need extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication, or additional care. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping pets company, I’m able to give them the attention and care they deserve. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I love to spend time with dogs and cats just playing with them or even cuddling. I have a big backyard in my house with a pool so I love to run around with my dog there
About: Though I do not own my own pets I have always been around dogs and have been a source for family members when they need their dog taken cared of.

I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I provide fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages. In a client's home, I make sure their pet receives consistent care while keeping the home clean and secure. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where pets feel happy and cared for.

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.
