“Regulo was a blessing for my pup and I when we needed it. My work schedule and housing situation is less than ideal, but it was no issue for him. I left some special instructions that he was happy to accommodate, and like clockwork he reliably came and took care of my dog Josie every day for weeks. I can’t recommend him enough.”
About: Hey there!! My name is Ashley and I am a passionate pet lover! I have been caring for animals since I was able to walk! I have 2 sweet dogs at home, Remington and Rue, and have raised countless fish, cats, chickens and horses as well. I am a full time stay at home mom, homeschooling my sweet 9 year old daughter while my husband owns and operates his insurance business from home so you can rely on your fur baby having around the clock love, care and supervision. We have a dog door that leads to half an acre of fenced yard for your babies to get out all of their zoomies and also live ON zube park walking trail (we share a fence and live right at the walk in gate!) so your babies will have daily walks and adventures. Our goal is for your pets to not want to leave at the end of their stay! They will truly be loved and doted on as if they were my own :) I am a stay at home mom homeschooling my daughter and caring for my own animals full time. Rest easy knowing your precious pets will be loved and cared for around the clock! I have an extra large yard with dog door access and two loving dogs to keep your fur baby company during their stay with us! I can also do in home visits, walks, and grooming! I am also experienced with special needs dogs, administering medications, and farm animals as well (chickens, goats, horses)
About: From experience with puppies to older dogs, I also offer grooming and other services if needed. I have big patio and a friendly pet they can play with. I stay at home with my baby and my pet Luna all day most days so I’ll be available any time for any walks, unexpected stays, or any other situation! My neighborhood is fairly new and small, we have a fenced yard and lots of room to play, we have a lot of toys and stuff around the house for your babies to play with!
About: I have seven years of experience caring for puppies and adult dogs, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies to older dogs who prefer a slower pace. I provide patient, attentive, and loving care while making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I work part-time, I have plenty of flexibility in my daily schedule to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m available most days and can easily fit pet care into my routine. The only exception is Tuesdays and Thursdays, when I’m available before 5 PM. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets consistent, reliable care. When caring for dogs in your home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and any other care they’re used to. I’ll give them plenty of attention and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own.
About: The kid whose parents wouldn't let them have a pet has officially taken over. Now, I’m an adult living out my ultimate childhood dream 🐶❤️🐱I’ve spent over 6 years caring for my 2 poodles, so I truly understand the patience, love, and attention every furry friend needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just quiet company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like my own! Pet care easily fits into my daily and weekly routine because I have a flexible job that allows me to create my own hours. This means I can plan my schedule around your pet’s needs — whether that’s early morning walks or midday check-ins. I’m available any day of the week and make it a priority to be there when your furry friend needs me most. Having this flexibility allows me to give each pet the attention they deserve, without ever feeling rushed. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always at the top of my list! As your pet sitter, I follow all routines you provide, such as feeding times and walks, playtime and bedtime. Safety is always my top priority, so I keep doors securely closed, monitor for any potential hazards, and double-check that your pet always has fresh water and their place is cozy enough to rest. I also keep open communication with regular photo and text updates, so you can feel completely confident that your furry loved one is in caring, trustworthy hands.
About: Growing up, I was very responsible with pets. My friends and family would always trust me to take care of their pets if they were ever away for long periods of time. I'm currently working 6a.m to 230p.m, M-F. I'll be avaliable after work for walks and in home visits. While im working from home message me anytime to take of your beloved pet. If I am working that day, just let me know and I can make arrangements for your pet. 🙂. My job gives me the option to flex my schedule. I'll treat your pets as if they were part of my family! In my home or yours. Safety is really important to me. In my residence I always make sure my pet has food and water and nothing laying that could hurt or cause injury. I do the same routine when dog sitting and dog walking. When walking my dog or yours I'm alway vilagte of my surrounding, for other dogs humans or other animals. FULLY SODDED BACKYARD!
“Emily was great with my dog, she was on time and got him excited for the walk, she told me how everything went. Now he is so tired and happy. We love to see our dog happy and Emily did a great job making him happy for the day. I will definitely call Emily again for our next walks.”
“I’m watching my son’s big dog, the walks he deserves were taking a physical toll, until I signed up here and Alanna started walking him, it really helps MY day. He looks forward to his walk, watching the clock semi patiently, for his daily walk, it’s his favorite time of day and he really enjoys Alanna taking him out for a more brisk walk than I am capable of. She does a great job with him, and he is very happy with their time together.”
About: I’ve taken care of family and neighbor dogs for a while. I’ve owned pets all my life and have worked at a professional facility for dog boarding and daycare for a while. I’m capable of working with large dogs, senior pets, and I can handle energetic fur babies as well. I can administer medication if needed, and can keep puppies and kittens entertained. I have plenty of time right now to care for pups, and will still have plenty of time when school starts. I’m very flexible and tend to be very easy to reach. I have my own fur baby, who’s a senior now. I keep her on a good schedule and make sure she gets plenty of walks. I am willing and able to take care of fur babies of all ages.
“Thank you so much for walking our baby girl during these few weeks. You’ve been such a great help and Chevy is definitely getting used to you and is slowly getting more excited when she hears your name. I look forward to keep using you as our walker to help us exercise our girl. Thank you.”
About: I grew up with a Vet-Tech mother Whom i’ve worked alongside; who taught me the ropes with most breeds. In fact in my very own house daily with her own sitting business, I have been boarding, sitting, and walking since 2010. I take pride in my knowledge of large breed dogs, while also keeping the small rugrats close to my heart.(yes that includes your kitties too) I’m a home-body close to three dog parks, two splash pads, two emergency vet clinics, and not to mention two big goobers of my own always ready to wear out some new fur friends. I look forward to hearing from you guys and can’t wait to embark on this new adventure with you and your fur babies. i am a veterinary assistant with essentially open availability- I like to work around the schedule my clients give me, i feel it makes life easier on both of us! I have recently moved into a house with the fenced yard I love watching the babies enjoy the freedom and simply being the animal they should be. I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. My normal routine is starting at 8 AM with my own pets. I can be up earlier as needed. I have a fenced in yard with three dogs to keep yours company and can keep them crated if/or needed for their safety per your request, of course
About: I’ve cared for cats for over two years and truly enjoy spending time with animals.

Friends and family have relied on me to feed, play with, and look after their pets while they’re away. I’m a fast learner and confident handling both cats and dogs, always making sure they feel safe and comfortable.

About: i’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, since i was 5 years old. i’ve had big dogs and small and i have trained them and taken them on walks and given them baths and basic care like feeding them on routine i’m currently a college student and have a lot of time so every morning i feed all my dogs and take them outside to run and play and potty and later on in the day i take them on walks and feed them once more before bed. i have a fenced yard and two other doggies to keep yours company or i can very easily crate any of them to keep yours comfortable
About: I have owned cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, fish, horses and many other creatures. I have more than 45 years experience with animals and I have also worked in an emergency animal hospital (VCA Spring Branch). I have tons of patience and free time and would love to help out with your pets. I own a tabby cat currently so I am always taking care of her in some way. I am neurodivergent and a bit awkward from C-PTSD, ADHD and mild autism spectrum disorder. I am more than capable of doing a great job with your animal kiddos and probably more in touch with them than humans because they are predictable which is a nice change from humans. I am trying to help my mom in any way I can to send my 18 yr old twins to college even if that just means taking care of myself more without help from her since she and I have coparented for 18 years and she has always been my biggest inspiration and supporter. I have a fenced yard. There are tons of walking trails in the area. I am very relaxed around animals and just love to give attention and companionship. Pets are allowed to be inside and outside. Whatever makes them comfortable. They cannot get out of my yard and I would never leave them unattended outside. I love to meet pets before staying with them even if more than once because their security and comfort allow us all to stay safe and secure especially if i am coming in their house with their humans not there. Please let me know how they act on walks when they run into new people, kids and animals.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have 2 years of experience working at a dog hotel and another 2 years at an animal hospital, where I cared for pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, or just relax, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, love, and quality care while you’re away. I work morning shifts, so I’m available before work and most afternoons and evenings. I also typically have every other day off, giving me full-day availability. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can often accommodate last-minute requests when possible! My work schedule is consistent, and I’ll always communicate my availability in advance to ensure your pets receive reliable, attentive care. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. With 2 years of experience working at a dog hotel and 2 years at an animal hospital, I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I respect each home as if it were my own and always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication with pet parents. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, and my goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while their family is away.
“Cathleen was great at communicating and providing great updates. She was flexible with my schedule in creating a meeting time - so appreciated. We were very pleased with the service!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Hockley is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 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.

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 Hockley. 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 Hockley 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 Hockley. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
