Dog Walking Kendalia

About: Been around dogs since I was a child. I take every opportunity I can to be near them. Even the tough ones. I have a lot of patience and empathy for dogs that seem stressed or lack impulse control. I observe behavior before making suggestions on how I can help. I have had some dog training with my prior dogs and learned a tremendous amount and I am currently taking courses to become a dog trainer. I have experience with dogs with general anxiety and separation issues, senior dogs, and high energy dogs. I really do love and appreciate all their unique quirks and personalities. I'm centering my life around dogs, I am self employed and working towards a dog training certification. Tho I have gained experience from hiring trainers to work with my dogs in the past. I believe dogs are a gift to humans, and even the challenging ones deserve patience and love. I have a fenced area in my yard for dogs to play, or they are in my house. I consider my animals to be family members. I love to take them on walks and play, they are my adventure pals and my emotional support pals. I would love to walk yours or just drop in for playtime, and always incorporate alittle training, as my experience has shown me animals thrive when they have a good balance of safety and stimulation. I always treat each animal as unique but I also believe in a good foundation and calm yet assertive interactions.

About: I have lived around animals for as long as I can remember and I completely adore them. I have a fair amount of experience with dogs the smallest being a choodle (chihuahua+poodle mix) from a puppy to the largest so far being a Pyrenees. By this point I have taken care of both baby animals and senior pets with a lot of experience with keeping up with your pets medication. I also have experience with other animals like sugar gliders, hedgehogs, snakes, fish, chickens and even a horse. I reinforce any commands and training your pets are learning. I'm willing to care for and walk dogs of an even larger size just give me fair warning if your dog is a jumper. Im a little on the short side and just want to be prepared. I currently own a Chinese crested powderpuff named Rogue, and a miniature dachshund named Slade. Also I care for a family of stray cats that might as well be mine at this point. I usually play with animals until they are tired enough without making them exhausted. I usually keep to whatever schedule my clients give me and then some. Feedings, bathroom breaks, play time, walks, cuddles, training reinforcements and loads of pictures. I keep an eye out for just about everything. I want to make sure that both your pets and your house is safe. I'll check for anything that is asked for specifically as well

“Adia has been absolutely incredible with our pup. She is not only super attentive and loving, but she truly goes above and beyond every single time. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares, and our dog absolutely adores her. Knowing our pup is in such kind, reliable hands gives us so much peace of mind. We feel so lucky to have found her and can’t recommend her enough!”

About: Heeyyy! I’m Nicci, a life long Austinite, I’m a Mom to two minions, two cats, and a dog. I’m an artist who enjoys going on long walks (hopefully with your dog…🤞) I’m really flexible schedule wise. I don’t mind administering medication if needed. I’m good with all stages of life - puppy/kitties to seniors and anyone in between. I would be happy to help you out with whatever companion care needs you may have. My job is to walk, check in on, and care for other’s companions. It’s all I do besides my main Mom gig. So, companion care IS my daily routine! :) I have recently moved to the Canyon Lake area into a house with a yard backing up to a creek. I’m in a slow neighborhood that is great for long walks.

About: I’m a devoted dog owner to two pups and although I am new to Rover I do have experience with dog sitting/ walking for pets outside of my own home! I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I always take the time to give them attention, patience, and care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and aim to create a happy, stress-free experience for both pets and owners. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pets throughout the week. I’m happy to provide walks, check-ins, and in-home sitting whenever your pet needs attention and companionship. I care for pets in their own homes so they feel safe and comfortable. I always follow all schedules and instructions closely, give lots of attention, and treat both pets and homes with respect.

About: I've been taking care of different animals since I was a kid. From farm livestock to exotic animals with more specific needs, I'm confident I can keep your pet very happy and comfortable. I'm currently a college student full time, however I have many large gaps in my schedule. I'm fully free on weekends and just ask for my specific free times during the week, as they can vary. I'm a on campus living student so I can't have any pets over, but I'm available to do pet walks, quick visits, and overnight watches.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs through family and friends, including puppies only a few months old, adult dogs, and senior dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, potty breaks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets extra patience and attention based on their needs. I also have experience providing oral and rectal medications when needed. I deeply care for all dogs and always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved during my visits. I’m a nursing student with a flexible schedule, and pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I enjoy spending my free time with animals and can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. I like having a routine, so I make sure pets stay on their normal schedule as much as possible. I care for every pet like they are my own. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medication needs, crate instructions, and any house rules. I also like to send updates and pictures so owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are being cared for.

About: New to Rover but caring for pets and homes locally as if they were my own has been part of my life for years. I know how important it is to trust the person you’re leaving your pets with and I take that to heart. I’m patient, reliable, and pay close attention to the little things that keep pets happy and homes feeling cared for. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including playful puppies and gentle senior pets who may need extra time, medications, or a softer touch. I’m comfortable handling different routines, personalities, and special needs. Beyond pet care, I’m respectful of your home and keep everything tidy so you return to a space that feels just the way you left it—or a little better! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life because I work remotely from home. That means I’m around throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, meals, playtime, and plenty of companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, whether they need extra attention, medication, or just a reassuring presence. Having animals around just makes my days better, so it never feels like a job to me. When I’m staying in a client’s home, I keep pets on their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. That means regular meals, walks, playtime, and as many snuggles as they can stand:)

About: I am willing to learn from your animal baby, I've also taken care of puppies, my old dog had a whole litter of 6 and we had a home birth. I've also cared for multiple litters of kittens. I know basics of training, however I am not a dog trainer! Just a loving being, hoping to connect with you and your dog or cat to best help them while you do your thing 🩷🦋 thank you for the opportunity Personally, I work full time at a Montessori inspired school and go to school so weekdays are not usually open for me. However, on weekends, I have more availability to look out for your furr babies while also doing community outreach. Eventually, I would like to work from home or find more space for this work as I transition to different work. I am willing to do drop INS after 6pm on certain days and vacation time I care for my animals with lots of love, usually I try to take the time to be with them since working full time you don't always get to. They are my babies and I want them all to feel like I am there for them 🩷. I usually clean their litter boxes, feed and cuddle when I get home 🩷 as for other animals around me that have come and gone, I am grateful for the unconditional love they have shown me and I to them 🩷

“Morgan was a huge help for the holidays! She was very kind to my dog and would 100% rebook with her!”

Chase R.

“Ashely immediately established a positive rapport with our possibly difficult dog and continued building that relationship throughout her contract. Both our dog and cat were well and fine upon our arrival home. Ashley's communication was thorough and consistent. Doppler got walked at least once each day weather permitting. Both dog and cat received good interaction and playtime each day. We recommend Ashely to anyone for either dog or cat care.”

About: Hi, I'm Dani! I've always believed the world is a little softer because animals are in it. I've spent years caring for pets of every kind through professional pet sitting and my background in veterinary medicine, and somewhere along the way, I realized there isn't much that makes me happier than earning an animal's trust. Whether they're the fearless adventurer who can't wait for a walk, the anxious soul who needs someone patient beside them, or the senior whose favorite hobby is finding the warmest patch of sunlight, I love getting to know them exactly as they are. As a professional photographer by trade, I tend to notice the little things. The happy dance before dinner. The goofy grin after a game of fetch. The slow blink from a cat who's finally decided you're worthy of their friendship. So don't be surprised if your updates include a few frame-worthy portraits along the way. I can't help myself. My priority is never just checking off a to-do list. It's preserving your pet's routine, respecting their personality, and making sure they feel safe, enriched, and genuinely loved until you're home again. Whether that means long walks, muddy adventures, enrichment games, medication schedules, or simply sharing a quiet afternoon on the couch, I'll meet them where they are. I know what it feels like to leave a piece of your heart in someone else's hands. That's exactly why I care the way I do. My hope is simple: that when you walk back through your front door, your pet is happy, your home is just as you left it, and you never once had to wonder if they were being cared for. I'd be honored to love your best friend like one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule because I intentionally plan my calendar well in advance. I balance several freelance roles, so staying organized is second nature to me. I keep my Rover calendar updated regularly, which means if my profile shows that I'm available, you can trust that I've set aside the time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. My home is intentionally dog-friendly, with a spacious, securely fenced backyard that's perfect for zoomies, exploring, and soaking up the sunshine. We have a doggie door for easy outdoor access, bubble windows built into the fence for the cutest neighborhood watch imaginable, and a wonderful neighborhood filled with peaceful walking trails for safe daily adventures. Even my furniture is pet friendly because I believe dogs should feel at home, not like they're tiptoeing around someone else's. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I'll carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise preferences, and any house rules you've established because I know those familiar routines help pets feel safe, comfortable, and confident while you're away.

Routine Consistency: I stick strictly to your pet’s schedule. Whether it's the exact time for a pill or the specific way they like their ears scratched, I maintain their "home-school" routine to minimize anxiety.

Property Respect: As a professional, I leave your home exactly as I found it—well-guarded and tidy.
