“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: I’ve been a dog mom for 7 years. I have 2 fur babies: Roxy and Daisy. I love dogs with every fiber of my being! My girls and I always do something together: we love walks, hikes in the nature and daily obedience training. I am also a very active individual so I can assure you that your fur baby will be exercised and mentally stimulated on my watch. I believe in the importance of mental enrichment as well as daily physical activity for all dogs no matter their age and breed. It’s important to meet your dog’s needs on a daily basis. My older dog Roxy is also a senior dog so I understand how vital it is to accommodate her needs while still ensuring she gets an adequate amount of activity and rest. I can teach your dog basic commands and fun tricks as well as do mental enrichment games and puzzles. I currently work part-time: I offer in-home personal chef services to clients all over DFW area. I am able to set my own schedule and I have weekly as well as weekend availability to care for dogs. I’m willing to care for your fur baby in your home. I’m very flexible and will do my best to accommodate your unique needs and requests. I’m also married so when I’m away I know that my husband will take care of our dogs.

About: I own a dog myself and so Ive learned to crate and potty train her. As much as I love her I do understand every dog needs to learn respect to others. I am currently working full time with a set schedule for a while and it does change from time to time. But i do work 3-11pm 4 days and Sunday i work 7am-3pm. My dog is crate trained, so if needed she can be put away. I do have a spacious apartment, my cat tends to be shy around others. So he would run off, but as mentioned before with my dog, my cat can be out away also.
About: I've always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs through both personal experience and helping friends and family with their pets. I had a Golden Retriever for 5 wonderful years before he passed away from cancer. He taught me so much about love, patience and responsibility that comes with caring for a pet. I am comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels and understand how important it is to follow their individual routines and make them feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pup needs a long walk, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I'd be happy to give them the care and attention they deserve! I am currently working part-time as a Physician Assistant, so pet care fits naturally into my flexible schedule! I'm able to dedicate time throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime and overnight stays when needed. I treat every pet like they're my own! I'll take the time to get to know their personality, routine and what makes them feel comfortable. I am happy to keep up with their schedule, walks, playtime and any special instructions you provide. When I'm caring for a pet in your home, I'll be respectful of your space and make sure everything is secure. My goal is for your pet to feel happy, safe and loved while you're away!
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: *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’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. I help out my friends and family with their pets when needed. I love playing and walking with pups. I can help with feeding and any special needs or quirks your animal may have. I work from home and love getting outside whenever I have the chance. I have a flexible work schedule and during the weekend I’m home playing with my dog! When going outside I would always make sure a leash is on if there isn’t a fence. Always be on lookout for glass or trash on the sidewalk.
About: Growing up there’s always been animals apart of my family. I’ve been responsible for dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, and snake's! I always enjoy getting to know new animals, and learning what works best for them. I’m currently a full-time student and mom which normally limits my pet care to Tuesdays & Thursdays 8:30am-2pm. Additional care can be scheduled on Saturdays if needed. For dog walks, I prioritize safety by checking leashes, matching your dog’s pace, and keeping them hydrated. After the walk, I wipe paws and refill their water. For check ins, I follow your routine for feeding, medication if needed, and potty breaks, leaving plenty of time for play and cuddles. During every service, I ensure your home is secure and will send a detailed Rover report card with photos and updates so you always know your dog is safe and happy!
“Our doggie (and us) love Ashley! She is very responsive and so good with our dog! She goes the extra mile for your pet and has a caring heart!! I love all the pictures she sends us of our pup! What a find for our little family! Thank you!”
About: I am animal CPR and first aid certified, have 4+ years experience with animals as well as exotics. I have veterinary hospital experience, and am willing to take on challenging dogs/cats with no extra charge! I will allow price negotiation if needed :) I have open availability. If needed, I can even stop by at night to check on them, I’d never want to have an owner worried when I’m close by and can help! Whatever fits your fur babies needs, or what they prefer I will do! If reactive/scared, space is respected, but their needs will be fully taken care of+love from afar. If they’re a loving dog, who needs enrichment and extra love, I’ll match your fur babies energy!
About: As a full-time work-from-home professional, your pet will enjoy constant companionship and a highly predictable routine throughout the day. I specialize in providing attentive care for both energetic puppies who need consistent potty schedules and senior dogs requiring gentle pacing and precise medication management. My home is a calm, hazard-free environment designed for safety, and I intentionally limit bookings to one family at a time to ensure your dog receives my absolute focus, regular exercise, and undivided affection. As a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of pet care experience, I treat every furry guest like a member of my own family. My goal is to provide a safe, high-energy, and stress-free environment tailored specifically to your pet's unique personality and daily routine. Whether your dog craves long, structured neighborhood walks, intense fetching sessions, or just a quiet spot on the couch for endless belly rubs, I ensure they receive constant attention, love, and mental stimulation. I am extremely detail-oriented, highly communicative, and will text you frequent photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away with absolute peace of mind. Whether hosting your pet for a fun-filled staycation at my house or caring for them in the comfort of their own home, safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, your pet will enjoy a fully secured, hazard-free environment with plenty of cozy spaces, separate boundaries for safety, and constant supervision. When checking on or sitting at your home, I strictly respect your property, follow all security protocols, and replicate your pet's exact feeding, walking, and medication routines to minimize separation anxiety. I keep emergency vet contacts ready at all times and send frequent, reassuring updates so you always know your best friend is safe, happy, and loved.

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.

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!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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.
