“Great with my 80 lb, strong willed boy! Friendly and puppy comes home happy and worn out. Everything I could ask for! Will hire Richard again for sure. So glad we got connected with him!”
“Karina has been absolutely amazing and has saved me many times. I have a busy schedule and I travel a lot for work. She has helped me in a pinch with a smile on her face! My pets adore her and I think the world of her.”
“Had a very last minute booking and Madison was very flexible and awesome in coordinating everything. She was great with my pup Milo and was awesome with her communication. Will be booking again for sure!”
“Hilda was great! Very punctual and she walked a full 30 minutes after we had a short meet and greet. She took lots of pictures and had some interesting insights we discussed when she brought him back. Meeting new people can be challenging for Odie but he was totally ok with her by the end of the walk.”
About: I’ve been pet and babysitting for 6 years, and have had my own pets basically my entire life. I’m a student at the University of North Texas and I love being active and caring for animals, and I would love to care for yours! I can’t wait to meet and work with you and your babies! As a college student, I have a lot of free time between classes and on the weekends, and I am always looking for work. I’ve been doing Rover for a several months now, and I can’t wait to continue now that I’m back at school!! I have a car and am very active, so I am perfectly happy taking your dogs on walks or running around with them outside. I am very good at following even the most specific care schedules!!
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like family. 🐾💕 I’m currently in school from 9:30 AM–1:30 PM, so I have plenty of time before and after school to care for your pets, with weekends also available! My apartment community has two huge dog parks, giving pups plenty of space for exercise and play. I’ll always provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while following your pet’s routine. 🐾💕
About: I have hands on experience working with dogs in a professional kennel and daycare environment. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I am attentive and understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. I also have experience with senior dogs and know how important extra patience, comfort, and attention can be. Most importantly, I treat every dog in my care like they are my own and want them to feel safe and loved while you’re away. I work mornings during the week and get off at 1 PM most days, giving me afternoons and evenings available around my classes. I’m especially available on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, which gives me plenty of time to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I’m also flexible with drop-ins and can work with each pet’s routine and needs. I make sure every pet feels comfortable and safe. I follow each owner’s instructions and keep their routine as consistent as possible. I provide a clean, calm, and secure environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. I also keep owners updated so they know their pets are in good hands.
About: I’ve never not had pets in my life! I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets, young and old, traditional pets and more exotic ones. I don’t mind caring for any type of pet— if it’s your baby, it’ll be mine too for a bit! Currently I have completely open availability! Some weekends I do theatre productions but those weekends are few and far between. I’m also a night owl and am open to care for your pets at all odd hours of the day or night. Routine is key for your pets. As a sitter, it is my responsibility to ensure your babies still follow their routine as if you were still at home. I have experience with more complex routines or routines that involve medication as well!
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats with a wide range of ages, sizes, personalities, and care needs. Everything from individual pets to large multi-pet households. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs and cats, large and active breeds, shy or anxious pets, separation anxiety, medication routines, and animals that need extra patience, exercise, enrichment, or companionship. I’m confident managing homes where several pets have different feeding schedules, personalities, and routines, and I anlways adapt my care to the individual animal. Animals are also a huge part of my everyday life. At home, I have two dogs and seven rescue cats, along with two horses, a miniature donkey, and chickens. My broader animal-care background also includes experience with birds, reptiles, fish, and farm animals, along with extensive plant care. Caring for such a wide variety of animals has made being observant, organized, and attentive to the little details second nature to me. My background also includes an advanced college-level Animal Science course and a Veterinary Medicine course, both completed with an A+ average. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and subcutaneous injections when provided with clear instructions. I also worked for two years as the head equine manager at a therapy barn and have trained horses for five years. That experience taught me to stay calm and confident, read body language carefully, recognize subtle signs of stress or discomfort, and adjust my handling to the animal in front of me. When you leave your pets with me I want you to be able to enjoy your time away without worrying about what is happening at home. I follow feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions closely, send regular photos and updates, and make an effort to keep your pets’ routine as normal as possible. I also take caring for your home seriously and keep pet areas and the home clean and organized. Detailed instructions and multi-step routines don’t overwhelm me. Having the information I need to care for your pets exactly the way you want is my priority. Animals have always been a major part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is getting to know each animal’s individual personality and earning their trust. Some pets want lots of playtime and activity, while others are happiest with quiet companionship or need a little extra patience before they feel comfortable with someone new. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel safe, understood, happy, and very well loved until their family comes home. Animal care is already a major part of my daily routine, and I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am available for early mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnight stays, weekends, holidays, and many last-minute requests. I am a part time student and attend classes from 9am-11am Monday, Wednesday, Friday and 10am-1pm Tuesday and Thursday. Safety, consistency, and communication are my top priorities. Every pet has different needs, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, exercise requirements, medications, and any special instructions before care begins. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, multi-pet households, separation anxiety, oral medications, and subcutaneous injections. During house sitting, I stay offer to stay overnight and spend as much time as possible with your pets, only leaving when necessary for classes, work, errands, or other commitments. I am happy to bring in mail and packages, water plants, take out trash, and help maintain your home while you’re away. I provide regular photo updates and communication so you always know how your pets are doing. I treat every home with respect and strive to leave it exactly as I found it. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, senior, medically involved, or simply has a detailed routine, I am committed to providing patient, attentive, and reliable care.
“Kyra has been the best walker for our dog! She’s always prompt and on time, communicates well, and leaves our dog nice and tired after her walks. I appreciate you Kyra! Highly recommend.”

“Emma did a great job taking care of our two dogs. She sent plenty of photos and some commentary on their outing that gave me a good idea of their daily walk encounters and other things going on like the weather, the ground conditions and how successfully the dogs finished their usual business. Emma demonstrates a good knowledge of and rapport with animals and reported that even my shy dog Harper warmed up to her during their time together. The dogs were happy and well upon our return so we are pleased with Emma's service while we were away. We would happily rebook Emma for any future animal care needs.”
“If I had to describe John in one word, it would be “amazing.” We are new to Dallas and needed someone to walk our two dogs on very short notice, and John was kind enough to step in and help. Our dogs are not difficult, but they definitely have their own personalities. One is a 120 lb German Shepherd who loves chasing squirrels (and climb trees to meet their families), rabbits, and sometimes even butterflies, and he also thinks he needs to make friends with every dog he sees. Our other one is an 18 lb Shih Tzu who is a little pampered and does not like walking in the sun. What really stood out to us was how patient, caring, and thoughtful John was with both of them. During the first couple of days, when our Shih Tzu decided he was done walking after finishing his business, John actually picked him up and carried him while continuing the walk because our German Shepherd still wanted more time outside. For the last few days, he even walked them separately so each of them could get the individual attention they needed. That level of care says a lot about John. He was always on time, courteous, respectful, responsible, and genuinely loving toward our dogs. We are very thankful for his help and would definitely look forward to having him take care of our boys again in the future.”
“Caitlyn did very good with Oreo! It was our first time trying to see if he’d do good with a dog walker and with no fault to Caitlyn, he did not. He was shy and very scared and not a fan of the idea. However, Caitlyn tried very hard to slowly work with him and kept me updated on the experience. I found it best to just leave him be as it was just a trial run and it helped me realize it is not for him! But I am very thankful for Caitlyn’s patience and kindness towards him and would recommend her for your pet!! She really cares about the animals she is working with.”
About: My daughter and I have had boxers for 30 years. We always get them when they are babies so I have been thru the good and Rockie times and love every minute. I am the retired point in my life so I have the time and the love to give each pet that I have the chance to be with. I am currently retired and have many open days to care for your babies. I have my daughter's dog a lot and she is great with all dogs. I have a decent size yard for play time. I also keep my daughter's boxer a lot and have a huge crate already here if needed

Emma has been my dog, Willow’s, dog walker for 7 months now & she is truly the best. Highly recommend. My dog can be a bit shy to strangers & Emma has been so patient & loving to her. I’ve also had Emma watch Willow when I’ve gone out of town for a few days & she always has done such a great job. Takes lots of pictures and is great at communicating. 10/10 across the board!
London was able to accommodate my baby last minute and during the snow. Both myself and husband were under the weather and she was quick to respond and take our pup out for a long over due walk. He came back a new man :). Thanks London we really appreciated the help.
We are very happy with Emily! She’s very sweet and communicative. She also cares for our dogs like her own and keeps them well taken care of 😊 I will say this is the best decision for our home to have a dog sitter/walker help us while we are away at work. It’s brought so much peace of mind to me and my husband.

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 Hickory Creek. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 Hickory Creek. 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.
