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.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
