About: When it comes to dog sitting, I am very attentive watching dogs. I love dogs and have been around them my entire life. I know when they are excited, hungry, or even a little bit grumpy. I have watched different breeds from retrievers to pitbulls. I know how to take care of them and make them feel loved and cared for. Can’t wait to dog sit your furry friend! :) Pet care fits well into my routine because I have a consistent schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I make time each day to provide reliable, attentive care and keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable. I provide personalized pet care in my clients’ homes through dependable drop-in visits, ensuring their pets receive attention, care, exercise, and companionship while they’re away. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets. I do not offer overnight stays because I want to continue providing the same level of care and attention to my own dog at home. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind.
About: Several years of experience with different type of pets. I love being outdoors and can handle longer walks with pets. I've done well training my own dog to do tricks. I am patient and compassionate. I'm currently pretty flexible on what times work. I'm reliable, consistent and great at communicating. Lets chat some more and see what works for you all. I plan on following the directions given to me upon booking. Paying attention to social cues from your pet and assessing how comfortable they feel.
“Katherine is great with our dogs, shows up on time and spends the full 30 minutes requested with them to make sure they get all the jitters out of their system.”
“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.”
“Abril was amazing, for the millionth time. My baby was sick while I was out of town and she did an amazing job checking in on her and taking care of her. She constantly kept me updated. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for many years of all ages and sizes for friends and family. I’ve grown up with dogs and they are part of the family. I will treat your furry friend like my own giving you peace of mind. I’m currently a grad student, so I am pretty flexible with scheduling. Weekends are the most flexible. I will work with you to find a time that works best. I’m available for drop ins and walks and making sure that your furry friends are doing okay while you are away. I care for pets in clients' homes by following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, administering medications if needed, cleaning up, and ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home. I will help them get their exercise in by going on walks and getting all their energy out.
“Dylan is a life saver! He was able to accommodate my last minute walk request with urgency and care. I felt safe and confident knowing my special pup was being taken care of by Dylan. We can’t wait for the next walk!”
About: I absolutely love dogs and their safety is my main priority! I’ve had a fur baby in my family since I was nine years old so I have experience in caring and protecting your pup. I am an elementary school teacher (work Monday-Friday) and my husband works from home, so your pup will never be left alone or unattended during their stay. Family & friends have always counted on me to walk, feed, and or bathe their pups whenever they go out of town. If you’re traveling to/from Lovefield Airport, I live only a minute away so it’s a quick stop to drop off/pick up your pup🐶 I am an elementary school teacher so I only work weekdays from 7am-4:30pm. My husband works from home so your pup will not be left alone or unattended during their stay. I’m available for boarding all throughout the week and weekends. My schedule is super flexible and I am available during holiday breaks. I have a fenced front and backyard and I have a friendly, 6 year old shih tzu, Lenny, to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog as needed. I also have available bedding and toys for your pup to use during their stay.
“Our little man knows what it means when Haley walks in the door! From the pics she sent on their walks, I could see him strutting and enjoying showing her that he’s King of the Neighborhood! Haley was super responsive and took such great care of him while I was away. She followed the instructions I left and kept us updated. This was my first Rover experience and we will definitely rebook with Haley!”
About: Before moving to Dallas for grad school, I worked in emergency vet med. I was trained to work with an array of pets with different routines and attitudes. I’m currently working part time, but am in grad school to become a therapist. My schedule is immensely flexible especially between work and clients. I am big on body language and following a pet parents routine. I have a good amount of emergency vet knowledge so your pets health and safety are at the top of my priority.
“Axel did such a good job walking my new puppy the last few days while I was at work. He was prompt, communicative, and Harry definitely seemed to love him. Will definitely keep booking with him!”
“Mariana did a great job walking Duke. She was very punctual and kind. This was my first time using a dog walker but I will definitely be using her again in the near future. Thank you so much.”
“I have a reactive dog who is very sensitive. I'm always worried about finding a new sitter, but Bubba loves Christine! He always seems to be in a better mood when she visits.”

Grace went above and beyond. Our big guy Loki is very shy and we weren't sure if she would even be able to get him on a leash but she had no issues and he even let her pet him! She walked both of our bug goldens even farther than I asked and made sure they had water before she left! Thank you Grace!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Irving on Rover is $24.42 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of August 2026, there are 9,053 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Irving. 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 Irving. 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 Irving.

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 Irving. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
