About: Hi, my name is Bree! Currently, my only pet is a cat, but I grew up with chihuahuas, a bird, and have pet sat for many friends and family members. After moving away from my hometown, I missed hanging out with all type of animals, so I decided to start pet sitting again. I love all animals, but I feel most comfortable and confident with cats and smaller or lower energy dogs. I am also happy to care for other animals, like birds, fish, and reptiles. I have experience administering oral and topical medications. I’m an excellent communicator and will tailor my care to your pets’ needs. I have a strong attention to detail and will love and care for your fur babies like they are my own. I am self-employed and work primarily from home, so my schedule is very flexible on both weekdays and weekends. On days when I work outside the home, I can drop in before and/or after my other responsibilities. I treat all homes with respect and cleanliness, and will follow your instructions for care. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and loved in your absence.
“We love Bobbie! She walks our dog Coco twice a week. She is lovely, reliable and proactive. On a few occasions when the weather forecast has been for rain she checks in ahead of time to confirm if Coco will still want a walk. Coco gets so excited when she sees her and has lots of fun with Bobbie. Could not recommend more highly!”
“I’m long overdue for a review but it’s needs to be done. Virginia has been incredible to work with. She walks our dog almost every day and is always on time and is great at communicating. I have a very tight work schedule in the morning and I’m so happy that I can rely on her.”
About: I was given the opportunity to work for a major pet store after moving to Austin, TX which is where I realized how beautiful it is to have a family member with a snout, funny ears, and a wagging tail! Helping others find what they want to spoil their furry companion with was always a joy. Rover was then introduced to me and I have been hooked ever since! Being a pup’s pal has allowed me to learn to socialize and get out into the world outside of retail work environments. Of course, socializing your pup is the goal at the end of the day too, that way we can all better understand the world we live in, but I do believe every heart and soul should get the attention they deserve. I strive to create a small bond with your pet so they know they have a friend and a home away from home. In my lifetime I have had the opportunity to work with a Beagle named Bagel, a precious Chihuahua-Terrier named Nala (R.I.P), and then a wild child, mixed lab-pit, named Chakra. I currently own Journey and Luna who are both incredible terriers not terrors at all lol. A bit about me: Daily exercise and nutrition are very important to me, therefore, I spend most of my free time cooking, cleaning, and exercising. I love the outdoors so you can frequently find me riding my bike on or jogging. Naturally, you and your dog(s) are welcome to join in! While your pup is under my care, we will work towards having the time of our lives (within the allotted time lol). The first thing after waking up would start with the quick backyard potty break, followed by breakfast, and then playtime. Some of my favorite parks in the area are Harry Griffin or Mast Park in Santee. The big, almost theme park for dogs would be Fiesta Island or a nice, clean dog beach. Then of course I would have to bathe your pet because nobody likes a stinky, muddy, or sandy pup! Your dog would also NOT be left alone for more than up to five hours with water, treats, and chew toy! After that, they would get some extra attention and likely play outdoors along with a shower of kindness, smiles, handshakes, and, of course, belly rubs and treats. If misbehavior from your pet should occur, no inhumane discipline will take place. They will simply be startled by a loud sound to alert the pup to stop. Worst case scenario: if they bite or ruin any furniture, you may be held responsible for any damages, but you need not worry! Thanks for reading and also for any positivity sent my way. It helps me continue taking care of your pets, fur babies, best friends, and most loyal companions. I truly enjoy and appreciate the time taken to meet and to work with you and your pet(s). I am fully available to your companion. Be it for one hour or one day or even a week! The only obligations I have are, like most, family. I am also in the Army National Guard, which makes me unavailable at unexpected times on rare and seldom occasions. I have a tall, fenced-in yard with edible pet grass designed explicitly for your dog(s) to potty-train. On the extra hot days, a comfy off-ground cot with a cooling mat and shaded canopy is available, along with a small pool of water for your dog to enjoy while they are here with me. No burned paws or dehydrated pets allowed :-P I also have plenty of chew toys and energy to entertain your dog with fetch, tug a war, and lots of outdoor running. Lastly, I offer a bed in a comfortable kennel for dogs with no severe behavior issues such as yelping, whining, and barking, mostly puppy's still learning the basics such as potty training. Dogs will be separated and placed in a kennel during short, unsupervised moments, such as quick runs to the store or during feeding time.
“Kyra is excellent! A great communicator and ensures that issues are quickly addressed. She really took care of my girls and I can't recommend her enough. I will be using her again.”

I don’t have a yard but plenty of space to walk them around.

About: Hey! My name is Chris… also known as Cherry’s Dad. I am very enthusiastic about people’s pets, have had dogs my entire life and will continue to be a dog person forever and ever. Fun fact: my mom owns a dog grooming shop in LA! I’ve worked a lot in the shop and have handled literally hundreds of pet dogs. After 15 years in corporate, I’m now a Business owner with flexibility in my schedule. I walk my own pet 3 times a day, and frequently take breaks to complete my put duties! At home, I pay attention to the dogs signals and adjust accordingly - are they happy? Nervous? Thirsty? Whining? I speak pretty good dog by listening. During walks, I never allow strangers, especially children, to approach someone’s dog I am in control of who isn’t mine.

I am retired so I have plenty of time to spend and play with my furry friends! I'll be staying at your home, so I will stay close in the community. I also love to help people with their garden! I am great at following all instructions given by the owner. I take them on long walks, playing fetch and cuddling up on the couch with them.
“Janet went above and beyond not only with my pup Koa but also with my Mom who was staying at home babysitting my dog. She is super caring, excellent with dogs and great human being. Hope to have her back again soon.”
“Zoarel has been such a great and reliable dog walker for my pup Luka! She was communicative from our first meet and greet. You can tell she truly loves dogs and Luka loves his walks with her.”
About: I've always had pets ever since I was very little, I adore all pets. I have had many, and currently have kitties and a puppy! I know a lot on how to care for them, and love playing with them to keep them happy and stimulated. I currently spend most of my time at home with my own pets, I occasionally babysit family as well. I love spending time outside, and hiking with my pets too! When I do in home care or check-ups I always want to make sure the pet is well taken care for so I always check their water, food, and let them go potty if it's a dog. I play with each pet to make them happy and have a fun activity, also walks are great. I can walk for miles if you have a dog that loves or needs a long walk, I'm all about keeping your pet happy and healthy!
About: I love pets, I have the biggest heart for dogs and taking care of them is so fun for me. They are big fluff baby’s, I have a lot of patience for every pet. I’m currently working part time, and going to school so I have a few hours of my day to pet sit. I would be available more during weekends. I will only be providing dog walking, but if need be my house is fenced off and secure, I bring my dog here all the time from my other home.
“Very professional and Fenway took to Erica immediately. She was extremely thorough in meeting us as well as reviewing what Fenway would need going forward. Our cat actually came out of hiding to meet and interact with Erica, which was a great sign!”
About: I have 10 years experience with dogs and 3 with cats, I’m passionate about exercise and extend this to pets! I’m able to do home visits or take care of them at my apartment.

“Alanis is so wonderful. She walks our energetic golden retriever on occasions and our pup cannot wait to see her! She is very communicative and details our pup’s behavior and any concerns, etc. she may have. We feel so comfortable knowing we have her coming over to help out. She provides sweet love and care to our girl and we will continue to request Alanis’s help as often as we are able to!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Samantha and Leighland walking Arlo, my 1 year old German shepherd, twice a day while I was out of the country for a couple of weeks. This was my first time leaving one of my dogs with someone new so was a little hesitant searching for a new walker so but I’m really glad that I chose them! The updates they sent we’re very comforting and made me feel that my boy was being very well taken care of. I cannot recommend them highly enough! I will definitely be a regular client.”

Reyna was great with my dogs! She arrived on time, was very friendly, and handled both of them really well. She definitely knew what she was doing and made sure they got all their energy out during the walk. I felt comfortable leaving my dogs in her care and would absolutely book with her again.
We love Bobbie! She walks our dog Coco twice a week. She is lovely, reliable and proactive. On a few occasions when the weather forecast has been for rain she checks in ahead of time to confirm if Coco will still want a walk. Coco gets so excited when she sees her and has lots of fun with Bobbie. Could not recommend more highly!
Hannah is a kind and caring dog walker. Not only did Hannah take good care of my brother's Lab Bailey, she was instrumental in getting Bailey placed in a good foster home while my brother recovers from his recent illness. I would not hesitate to use Hannah's services again!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Homelands. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Homelands.

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 Homelands. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
