About: Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy kitty, I care for every pet like they’re my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, as well as cats who just need a little extra patience and love. From energetic walks to quiet cuddle time, I adjust to what your pet needs. I’ve worked with seniors, pets on medication, and those with special routines — and I always send photo updates so you can see your furry friend is happy, relaxed, and well cared for! Personally I've had both cats and dogs in our home for years. Currently we have 2 of each! Caring for pets is one of the best parts of my day! Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening cuddle sessions, I build my schedule around making sure each pet gets the attention they need. I love the routine, the companionship, and the joy animals bring. Pet care isn’t just a side gig for me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every day. It keeps me active, grounded, and always smiling! As a retiree and empty nester, my schedule is open to accommodate yours! In your home, I prioritize maintaining a familiar environment for your pet by adhering to their established routines, feeding schedules, and preferred activities. I ensure their space remains clean, comfortable, and well-organized, while offering ample attention and affection. At my residence, the property is fully equipped with a secure privacy fence, allowing pets to safely enjoy outdoor time. Our home is highly pet-friendly, with an elderly dog, a 4-year-old pup, and two outdoor cats. Should your pet require solitude or a quiet space, we are easily able to accommodate this by keeping our animals separated for their comfort and peace of mind. Whether your pet is active and playful or requires more specialized care, I am dedicated to ensuring they feel at ease, comfortable, and well-cared for during their stay.

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 Lufkin. 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 Lufkin.

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 sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
