About: Please read before booking 🐾 Welcome to Your Pet’s Second Home! Hey there, fellow animal lovers! Are you looking for a fun, safe, and loving environment for your furry family member while you’re away? You’ve come to the right place! My husband and I are a pet care team located just minutes from Ft. Bragg, and we treat every pet in our home like one of our own. Whether you’ve got a playful pup or a shy kitty, we’ve got a cozy setup tailored just for them. With over 2.5 years of experience on Rover and hundreds of successful bookings, your pet will be in great hands. 💬 Why Pet Parents Love Us: We’re not just pet sitters, we’re pet lovers. We take pride in creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment that helps your pet feel at home while you’re away. We send daily updates and photos, follow your care instructions closely, and treat your pet like family. Our clients appreciate our communication, flexibility, and dedication. Many return again and again! 🐶 For Dog Parents: 🏡 Home & Yard Setup: • Large fully fenced backyard for exercise, play, and sunbathing. • Three rooms in the house, separated with gates for comfort and safety. • Indoor and outdoor security cameras for peace of mind. • Dogs are crated when we step away from the house to ensure everyone stays safe. If your pup isn’t crate-trained, let us know and we’ll make special arrangements. • We accept multiple bookings, so your dog may have playmates during their stay. If your dog needs solo accommodations or doesn’t get along with others, just let us know in advance. • Please ensure your dog arrives clean for their stay. Note: Unfortunately I cannot accept boarding bookings for unneutered male dogs. I would be happy to do house visits instead. 🌙 Nighttime Routine: We stick to your dog’s usual bedtime habits, whether that means a crate, a special blanket, or cuddling on the couch. Just let us know what helps your pup feel secure at night! 🐾 Behavioral Support: We’re experienced with shy, anxious, or high energy dogs and can accommodate special routines or extra space if needed. Communication is key, let us know your dog’s quirks and we’ll take care of the rest. 🐕 Resident Dogs: • Archer and Xeena are playful and full of energy, great for social dogs! • Koda is sweet and mellow, she prefers human company and usually hangs out in our bedroom. All three are medium sized, dog and cat friendly, and well socialized. 🐱 Resident Cats: • Zuko is our playful kitten who acts more like a dog. • Calypso prefers her independence and lounges in her cat tree, but she’s dog aware and unbothered. If your dog isn’t cat friendly, we’re happy to keep our cats in a separate area of the home. 🚗 Pickup & Drop off: Need help with transportation? We offer pickup and drop off services for your convenience! 📌 Please be sure to add this option to your booking request before confirming so it’s included in your quote. 🕐 Schedule & Availability: • I work on Ft. Bragg Monday–Friday, my job is very flexible so I return home multiple times a day to check in on pets, give potty breaks, and offer care. • Best drop off/pickup times: • 6:00–7:00 AM • 12:00–1:00 PM • Anytime after 5:30 PM • I’m flexible, just let me know if you need something outside of those times!

About: I’m new to Rover, but not new to dogs! I grew up in a 5-dog household, so chaos, cuddles, and constant tail wags have always been normal for me. I’ve also been dog sitting for my grandma since I was about 12 (22 now) whenever she travels, helping with feeding, walks, and general care. Now I live on a ranch with 3 dogs, plus horses & other animals. I’ve spent my whole life around animals and feel very comfortable caring for dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. As a business owner with a flexible schedule, I have the ability to adjust my routine to accommodate pet care on my days off. I take Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday off, and I’m available after 3 PM on Saturdays sometimes earlier upon request. This gives me plenty of time to provide reliable care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or overnight stays. I prioritize ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need during my available hours. When I’m watching pets at their home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just hanging out, I keep them busy and happy while giving them some love and attention. I also take care to keep their space tidy and make sure everything is safe for the pets. My goal is to make them feel like they’re getting all the love and care they need while their owner is away.

About: Growing up in a rural area I have had experience with most animals, from dogs to exotics, and love them all. I have a Bachelors in Animal Science from TAMU and worked for the Vet School during my undergrad. Not only do I have many of my own pets, but I have been trusted to care for others’ furry family members for several years. I formerly did dog training on the side so if you have any particular things your pups need to work on l would be happy to help! This also means puppies are no problem for me. Animals of all ages can have unique growing pains, but with a little consistency and positive reinforcement they can be the perfect pup! In addition, I have worked at a vet clinic previously, giving me the opportunity to develop strong skills when it come to handling different situations: including senior dogs, medication administration, etc. I am currently pursuing my masters, which leaves my schedule fairly open for you furry friends when I’m not in class! However, I do already have prior bookings for most of the holidays. When doing overnight or in home services I consider myself a very clean person that keeps to themselves; I will treat your home better than my own and try to leave it cleaner than before!

About: I’m a big dog lover and truly enjoy giving dogs all the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m kind, patient, loving, and reliable, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow their individual routines and needs. I’m also very good at communicating and will keep you updated about how your dog is doing, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog like family! I work part-time and attend college, but I take time management very seriously and maintain a flexible schedule with plenty of free time. I also care for my own fur baby at home, which has helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility and consistency when it comes to pet care. I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I care for every pet with the same love, attention, and responsibility that I give my own fur baby. At home, I take her on walks every morning, make sure she always has fresh water, and give her treats and her favorite peanut butter. My family and I give her plenty of attention, including cuddles, affection, and companionship. She especially loves sunbathing and relaxing in her favorite chair with me! When caring for a client’s pet, I’m very open to learning and following their individual routine, preferences, and needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I want to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved while in my care.

About: I’m a retired educator and animal lover with the time and flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for my own animals for years, completed two long-distance puppy transports from DFW to Charlotte and Los Angeles, and have repeat sitting experience with my cousin’s two dogs. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and patient caring for your pets and home. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles. I’m also comfortable giving basic medications if needed. What sets me apart is that I have the time to truly focus on your pets and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also believe good communication matters, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m retired, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. Because I’m home most of the day, your pet would receive lots of attention, companionship, and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I can easily work around your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, or quiet time. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by keeping their routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I understand that trusting someone with both your pets and your home is a big decision. I will always treat your home with respect and care while making your pet’s safety and comfort my top priority. I pay close attention to routines, instructions, and any special needs to help pets feel secure and stress-free in their familiar environment. I’m dependable, calm, and attentive, and I believe in keeping owners updated with regular communication and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Godley on Rover is $17 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $5 and $31 per walk. 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 of October 2026, there are 1,749 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Godley. 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 Godley. 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 Godley 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 Godley. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 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.
