“Naiyla takes amazing care of my 13 year old German Shepherd. She always keeps me in the loop and treats Iris like her own. She’s been such a blessing to our family since we work so much, and so thankful to have her as our daily walker. Couldn’t ask for a better person to look after my baby.”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my reliable, gentle approach. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, including playful puppies and senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs and make sure they feel safe and loved. I currently work part-time and also spend time studying, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m often free during mornings, afternoons, and weekends, making it easy to accommodate pet care needs. I care for pets with love, patience, and attention to their routines. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and affection. I treat every pet like family and follow any specific instructions closely.

About: Raising my own dog from a puppy taught me the dedication and responsibility needed for proper pet care. From established feeding and walking routines to playtime, training, and lots of affection, I know how to keep dogs happy and safe. I treat every dog with the same love, patience, and attentive care I give my own. As a college student, my schedule is completely open from Friday through Sunday for pet care. I have full availability on weekends to provide dedicated, uninterrupted attention, regular walk routines, frequent bathroom breaks, and plenty of quality playtime for your pup. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities during dog walks and drop-in visits. I strictly follow your pet's routine, ensure leashes and harnesses are secure, and double-check doors and gates when entering or leaving your home. I always provide fresh water, cleanup during walks, and send regular photo updates so you know your dog is safe and cared for.

About: I’m Destiny, a previous mini schnauzer owner for 5 years until I had to move states and ultimately couldn’t afford his travel and care. I love dogs so much, almost more than humans sometimes. I have experience potty training and teaching basic commands(no professional). I taught my puppy to sit, speak(when he needed to potty & just for entertainment/discipline purposes), and stay while I had him (he was also highly food motivated so it was super easy). I’m very active and love outdoors. I take runs at the park occasionally, so walk and play time should be fun for puppy with me. I have two boys, age 3 & 5, they’re full of energy to play as well with puppy. I currently work from home so my day is very free especially while my boys are at school during the day. Hope to meet you and your fur baby! I work from home so I’ll be there to supervise them all day. I am very active and I take walks or runs every day! I care for pets in my home just as they were mine! I allow them on furniture, walk and play and love on them very often.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds for several years. Friends and family regularly rely on me to feed, walk, play with, and look after their pets. I am highly responsible, energetic, and dedicated to making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you are away. Whether they need a long walk or some cozy couch cuddles, I’ve got it covered! I am currently a student with classes only on Mondays and Wednesdays. Aside from my Sunday night assignment deadlines, my schedule is incredibly open and flexible. This gives me plenty of dedicated time throughout the week and weekends to fully focus on, walk, and play with your beloved pups! I specialize in caring for pets directly in the comfort of your own home, where they feel most safe and secure. While I do have a fully fenced backyard and can crate dogs if absolutely necessary, I prefer traveling to your house to maintain your dog's regular routine, environment, and peace of mind.

Humble, TX, 77346

About: We are a new family of three and are preparing to add a wired hair fox terrier in the near future. We had a family dog when I was young but he sadly passed away due to old age. My husband and son love dogs and all animals. His previous pair of dogs was sadly stolen from him and he hasn’t been ready to get another pet. That recently changed when our son started showing extreme interest in dogs and other animals. We want to test the waters with dog boarding and walking to see before committing. For us, a pet is forever. I work from home and my work is flexible. I can accommodate changes in schedule. My office is in the galleria area and my house is in humble. I can do dog walks in the galleria area as well. I have a fenced backyard and empty rooms to house the dogs if they need to have their own space. We live in a very friendly neighborhood and parks nearby.

About: I am well rounded on all life stages and energy levels. I have been working with animals for about 10 years, starting in a daycare as a kennel tech then as a dog handler, moved over to the medical side of animal care as a veterinary assistant for 2 years before becoming a veterinary technician and a surgical nurse, then moved into emergency room settings. So if you have an elderly pet or a pet with high medical needs, booking with me will give peace of mind that your loved one is being properly taken care of. I am currently part time employed, going to nursing school online full time. I am also new to the area. My schedule is very flexible. Aside from being well trained on dogs/cats body language, my main goal is always to gain the pets trust with the understanding that I am in their home. When it comes to pets with more medical needs, making sure that the medication is timely and properly administered plus properly stored.

About: Hi! My name is Kourtlynne, and I am the owner of The Spoiled Spaniel Bakery, a homemade dog treat business inspired by my sweet cocker spaniel, Shelby. I named my bakery after her because she truly is a spoiled little spaniel in the best way possible! Shelby is the dog I dreamed of having my entire life, and with her sassy, spunky personality, she wins over everyone she meets with just one look. My love for her inspired me to turn my passion for animals and baking into something special for other pet parents and their pups. Along with running my bakery, I have been working with dogs through Rover for the past 5 years and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I also completed an internship at a veterinary clinic as a kennel technician, where I gained hands on experience in animal care and maintaining a safe, comfortable environment for pets. Currently, I work as a kennel technician at Mont Boujee Pucci, continuing to grow my experience working closely with dogs every day. My schedule is very open and flexible, and I keep my calendar updated frequently to make booking easy and reliable for pet parents. Caring for animals has always been my dream, and I love creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for every dog I meet! My schedule is very flexible, and I keep my calendar updated frequently to provide reliable availability for pet parents. I am available for weekdays, weekends, and most holidays, making it easy to accommodate your pet care needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With 5 years of experience through Rover and hands on kennel technician experience, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment while treating every dog like family.

About: I love animals especially dogs and cats. I also love lizards, snakes, etc. I have two dogs and one cat so I my experience lies with those animals the most. I also work at a doggy day care. I have experience taking dogs out to use the bathroom, going on walks, playing, etc. I’m also a very high energy person when it comes to animals. I want to tend to their every need, I love to sweet talk them, and I would love the opportunity to be able to play with your pet! I work at doggy day care, but the rest of my time would go into pet sitting. I love animals and I’d love to spend my extra time with them as much as possible. I believe all animals deserve love, care, and affection. For dogs - Walks - Play time - Sweet talk - Cuddles For cats (I know cats are more independent so hangout time would mean just sitting with them if they don’t like to play) - Cuddles - Hangout time - Playtime - Sweet talk

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a very full house I have 13 cats, so caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s basically my personality at this point. I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets they’re family, not just animals. I’m super attentive, patient, and used to handling all kinds of personalities (trust me, 13 cats = a lot of personalities). Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or needs a little extra care, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat every pet like they’re my own with lots of love, attention, and probably a few extra compliments along the way. little about me I’m 20 years old in college working towards my applied counseling degree! I’m currently in College so I will have plenty of time for your furry little ones to love and play with throughout the week . I do not have any pets but I do have a pet friendly area I have a fenced backyard and a front yard for them

About: I've been taking care of animals my entire life. I grew up with pets of all sizes and species: cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, etc. -- each with their own personalities. I have experience as a professional dog walker during my 8 years in Washington, DC. Friends, family, coworkers, and strangers alike have all relied on me to walk, feed, and sit their pets and their homes. I also have a green thumb and am diligent about taking care of the plant babies as well. I enjoy walking, playing, and snuggling with the pets. I also have a way of communicating with and soothing animals, so they'll definitely be in good hands. I will treat them like my own and be super attentive to their needs and yours as well. I'm also in school to be a holistic medicine doctor. I work from home. Flexible schedule I work for myself full-time and have a very flexible schedule, available all day, and usually anytime during the week. Right now, I am studying Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine (which is excellent for your pets by the way) but everything is remote and after-hours. Let's discuss more details! I'm single with no kids or pets of my own -- plenty of plants. A former project manager turned entrepreneur and TCM med student who just moved to Houston for graduate school. Great attention to detail. A strategic planner. A great listener and savvy speaker who gets along with everyone and pays great attention to detail. I absolutely love animals of all kinds, and I love spending quality time with them as a pet sitter, dog walker, and home sitter. I pride myself on empathy, cleanliness, and attention to detail so your pets will always be in good hands. I love to build bonds and trust with animals through respect, trust, affection, and play/stimulation -- unless that's not their jam and they'd rather be left alone -- no pressure, every pet is different. As a med student with goals I'm set on accomplishing, you can trust me to be low maintenance, quiet, and low-key with no drama or excuses. You can rest assured your pet and/or home is in great, responsible, mature hands.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Highlands

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Highlands is $20 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $33 per walk. On Rover, 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 4,413 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Highlands. 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 Highlands. 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 , 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 Highlands 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Highlands. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
