About: Hi there, my name’s Trinity! I’ve lived with pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and the gerbils that I researched months for before presenting my findings to my parents (they caved). Before earning my BA in Psychology, I studied animal science at TTU for two years in hopes to become a veterinarian. While my career has changed drastically, I still love spending time with animals and frequently volunteer with local animal shelters. I currently work two part-time jobs, one during weekday afternoons and the other on weekend mornings. My pets get their meals and walks before I leave for work. I am no stranger to a commute as a recent UTSA grad and as someone who is constantly driving all over town for work/volunteer opportunities. In fact, it gives me more time to listen to music in the car! I have an acre of land with a fenced in backyard with plenty of open space for your favorite child to run around. Our community is in a quiet country neighborhood, perfect for low-risk dog-walking.

About: Animals ranging from Sugar Gliders to cats and dogs to cows have been a part of my life since before I could walk. I used to foster medical case kittens when I lived in Georgia to increase their chances of being adopted into their furever homes I currently work part time, so I can love on your furbabies every day except for tuesdays and wednesdays until after 3 PM. Unfortunately, my home is not pet friendly, but I would love to come to your home and make friends with your animals. I am well-versed in most types of dogs- large and small, timid and excited that I exist, aggressive and love spongey. I have experience with pets working on their potty training and fur babies learning boundaries, as well as animals needing special medical attention.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up around dogs — and raising my own Doberman, Skyla and Chihuahua, Bunny — I truly can’t imagine life without them! Caring for dogs isn’t just my job, it’s something I genuinely love. Dog care is my full-time business, so I’m home throughout the week to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I do not kennel dogs unless requested by the owner, but if your dog is crate-trained or prefers their own kennel setup, I’m happy to accommodate that in my living room space. We have a fully fenced yard for supervised play, exercise, and lots of tail wags. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns — I’m always happy to chat and make sure you feel confident leaving your pup in my care!

About: I've cared for pets most of my life. Everything from kittens and cats, to playful puppies and senior dogs who need extra TLC. Friends and family often rely on me when they go out of town because they know I treat every pet like my own. I have experience with feeding routines, giving medications, long walks, and just being a calming, loving presence. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else's care, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Right now, I have a very open and flexible schedule, which means I can give your pet lots of attention and care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or just keeping them company, I’m home and available to meet their needs. Since I’m not balancing another job, I can focus fully on your pet and keep you updated with how they're doing. I prefer caring for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I stick closely to their usual routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime or medications, so things stay familiar while you're away. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, comfort, and company, especially if they’re used to having someone around. While staying in your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep everything clean and tidy. I’ll also keep you updated regularly with photos and notes, so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine life without them! I’ve had my own dog for 5 years now and there aren’t many days we don’t go on our daily walk. While living abroad, I also helped walk and dog sit for my neighbor whenever she was away. I treat every pup like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, care, and attention. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit in walks, drop-ins, or overnight care throughout the week. I love spending time outdoors and with dogs, so I make pet care a regular part of my day. As my schedule changes down the road, I’ll be sure to keep my availability up to date so you always know when I’m open for bookings. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I always follow their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure to respect your space and keep things just the way you like them. Whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime, I stick to your pet’s normal schedule and give them plenty of attention and care while you’re away.

About: I’m a US Marine veteran who brings reliability, structure, and genuine care to every animal I work with. With 8+ years of hands-on experience caring for pets and farm animals, I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is high-energy and loves long walks or needs a calm and patient approach, I adapt to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always come first. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable handling active dogs, maintaining routines, and providing structured care while still giving plenty of affection and attention. When your pet is with me, they won’t just be “watched.” They’ll be exercised, cared for, and treated like family. I know how important trust is when leaving your animals with someone else, and I work hard to give owners peace of mind through consistency, updates, and quality care. If you’re looking for someone disciplined, trustworthy, active, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’d be honored to care for your pets.

About: Hello Texas! I am a La Vernia area Rover contractor. I can service La Vernia, New Berlin, Marion, Adkins, and Sutherland Springs area, and possibly into Seguin or McQueeney. Just ask! 😊 I have a ton of special needs dog and cat experience Just let me know what you need! I'm excited to be here. As you can see from my Iowa reviews I was well liked and had several repeat clients. I will go out of my way to accommodate. I have also had a several dozen clients in Texas since starting here. Rover doesn't always give you an accurate number if there are multiple visits, mulitple animals, cats only, holidays, etc. I will adjust it! *I also do cat care: rates will depend on the number of cats, the number of days, and if there is a dog also. I will give each person a custom rate based on these. House sitting for cats only isn't an option, I will give you a custom cat visit rate (let's face it, they don't need me there all night!) : ) You can be assured you will always get a very reasonable rate. ABOUT ME: A have a lifetime of pet care experience. I grew up with cats and dogs and have had both as an adult (so that is a lot of pet years. 174 in dog years, I think). I have had two different seniors with special needs (one is with me currently). I love them all! My pets are members of my family and I treat them as such. I will do the same for yours. I am comfortable with all sizes, ages, special needs, med administration, etc. Kitty will get love too! If I am house sitting or doing drop in visits while you are away, I can also take care of trash/recycling day, plants, mail. Just ask! Part of the reason we moved was so I could rescue animals. So far, just in Texas, we have rescued 120 dogs, cats, cows, and goats. 30 of the dogs and cats have gone on to be adopted in the Pacific NW and are loving their new lives. 😍 I can accommodate preparing/feeding their special diets if you have them on one (raw food, homemade dog food, etc). Any other questions? Please just ask! Leaving your pets can be hard. My goal is to make that easier for you! I also have a farm sanctuary and we have rescued dogs, cats, cows, goats, hens, guinea pigs, and rabbits. My hours are flexible and animals are my whole life! I am not currently taking animals in my home as I am full with fosters! At your home, I will spend time playing and/or walking on visits depending on client wishes when visiting their home for check-ins or dog walking. I am able to handle all size dogs and multiple dogs. I am able to handle medication administration and various medical procedures. I love cats just as much as I love dogs!

About: My goal is to make sure your babies feel safe and genuinely cared for while you’re away so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a college student with a highly flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I plan my days around their needs whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping them company. It’s important to me make sure every pet feels loved and attended to while their family is away. I carefully follow each pet’s usual routine including feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and any special instructions to help keep their experience as stress-free as possible. I have a dog-friendly yard for outdoor time with plenty of space for crates, cages, or litter boxes if needed. I have multiple rooms available in my home for pets who may need a quiet separate space to gradually get comfortable before interacting with other pets or exploring the home. I understand that every animal adjusts differently, so I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs and personality to help them feel secure. I routinely send photo updates for peace of mind!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to care for pets at every stage of life. I’m experienced with training puppies using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I also have strong senior-care skills, including helping with mobility support, administering medications, and keeping a calm, comfortable routine. I treat every pet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I plan my schedule around the pets I’m responsible for. I set aside dedicated times each day for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I make sure each pet gets consistent attention. I’m very routine-oriented, so it’s easy for me to stay on top of medication schedules, training sessions, and any special needs. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine exactly—feeding schedules, medication needs, potty breaks, and playtime. I pay close attention to behavior, keep their space tidy, and make sure they always have fresh water. Whether I’m in my home or the client’s, I prioritize safety, supervision, and consistency so pets feel relaxed and well cared for.

About: Hi, I’m Jovan! Animals have always been a big part of my life — I’ve had dogs for over 14 years and can’t imagine life without them. Over the years, I’ve also cared for pets belonging to friends and family, including dogs, cats, and even reptiles. Whether furry, scaly, or somewhere in between, I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’ve provided pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits for a wide variety of pets. From energetic dogs who need long walks to shy cats that need gentle patience, I tailor my care to what each animal needs. I’m also comfortable following detailed instructions for feeding schedules, medications, or special routines — reliability and consistency are always my priority. My background in healthcare and hospitality has made me dependable, observant, and attentive to detail. Those skills carry over to pet care — whether it’s keeping pets safe on walks, ensuring they’re fed on time, or simply giving them love and attention while you’re away. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone is caring for your pets. With me, you can trust they’ll be in caring, responsible hands. I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated with plenty of photos and check-ins so you always feel connected. On weekdays I am available after 430! On weekends I'm available before 5pm! Definitely flexible and willing to work with you as long as we can communicate! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s, safety and trust always come first. I follow each pet’s routine closely — from feeding schedules to medications — and keep their environment clean, secure, and stress-free. With 14+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even reptiles, I’m attentive to each animal’s needs, whether that means giving an energetic pet playtime or creating a calm space for a shy cat. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing updates and photos so owners feel connected and confident that their pets are in responsible, loving hands.

About: I love my dogs and I will love yours to!! Your family member will have a great place to stay, and somebody to play with. They will be well taken care of and have everything they will need, food, water, outside, pet scratches, and belly rubs.

I look forward to taking in your family members while you are out of town or taking care of business. Either way you can rest easy knowing your beloved animals are here with me and in a safe place, I will be more than happy to do so!

FAQs for Dog Walking - La Vernia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 2,040 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across La Vernia. 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 La Vernia. 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 La Vernia.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 La Vernia. On Rover:

  • 88% 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.
