About: Your pampered pooch will feel right at home with lots of focused attention and considerations toward his/her regular routine. I offer personalized care, plenty of one-on-one cuddles, and a cozy, nurturing environment. Between frequent potty breaks and structured play sessions, your pup will have every opportunity to burn off energy or simply lounge. Plus, with a large, fully enclosed backyard, they will have the ultimate playground for high-speed zoomies and safe outdoor exploration. I offer a highly adaptable care environment tailored to your pet's specific routine. Because I homeschool, my daily schedule is fluid and centered around the home. This allows me to prioritize your pup’s needs as they arise and keep a constant watch. From energetic puppies needing frequent play sessions to senior dogs requiring a calm, steady presence, my 10+ years of multi-pet experience ensures I can handle it all. Your pet will never have to 'wait' for a walk or a meal; my flexible availability means their routine remains completely uninterrupted while you're away. Our fully fenced yard is just the beginning of a secure and loving environment where your pet will receive constant supervision. I survey the fence line on a monthly basis to check for holes or potential hazards. Our lawn is cared for on a biweekly basis ensuring low grass for best visibility to any dangers. Fecal matter from any guest is picked up no later than the end of the day to ensure clean and sanitary play space. Not to mention, you'll never have to wonder how they're doing, as I'll be sending frequent updates and photos so you can see all the fun. Our family home is a cheerful place, and while my children enjoy supervised playtime and gentle enrichment games with our guests, I am always the primary caregiver, ensuring your pet feels cherished, cozy, and safe throughout their entire stay.
About: My daughter and I have cared for animals for many years and truly love what we do. For the past two years, we’ve volunteered with the Richardson Animal Shelter, helping care for dogs with different personalities and needs. We fostered a Pit Bull Terrier mix and helped her find a loving forever home, which was an incredibly rewarding experience. We also rehabilitated a shelter dog who was underweight and anti-social due to past trauma, helping her become healthy and trusting again. At home, we have a sweet 2-year-old Maltipoo who is treated like family. We’re experienced with basic dog training, building routines, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. We’ve also provided overnight and extended puppy care for my daughter’s teacher on several occasions. What makes us different is the amount of patience, love, and personal attention we give every dog we care for. As a mother-daughter team, your pet gets double the attention, affection, and companionship throughout the day. We treat every dog like our own and always prioritize their happiness, safety, and comfort! Our availability is flexible throughout the week and depends on scheduling and time of day. We’re available some weekends with advance notice. We do our best to accommodate each family’s needs and keep our calendar updated for accurate booking availability. We provide calm, attentive, and structured care tailored to each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level. In our home, pets are treated like family in a clean, safe, and low-stress environment where they have space to relax, play, and feel secure. We maintain a consistent routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and rest so pets feel stable and comfortable. Because we have experience volunteering with the Richardson Animal Shelter and fostering/rescuing dogs with different temperaments, we are especially mindful of anxious, shy, or high-needs pets and adjust our approach to help them feel safe. We always prioritize safety, secure handling on walks, and careful supervision during all interactions. Our goal is to create a trusting, peaceful environment where every pet feels protected, understood, genuinely cared for and loved!
“I can’t recommend our dog walker enough! Adrian consistently went above and beyond every single visit. Not only was he always on time, but he also sent a text before arriving. What really stands out is the level of care he provides. He took extra time to clean our dog’s paws after walks, which is something we truly appreciate, especially on muddy or rainy days. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with and treats them like his own.”

About: I've taken care of my own and friends dogs! I love giving dogs the best care and love especially when their owners are gone. Having dogs I know how precious they are and knowing you want them to have the best care and snuggles. I make sure that your mind is at ease while you are away to enjoy your time and your pups get a vacation as well! Getting pictures and notes just to know they are ok is always nice! I am always open to additional requests to put pet parents at ease. I currently work from home full time. So I am available and have plenty of time to play. We also have a very large yard and walking areas. In the summer we have a pool if they enjoy that as well. I have a fenced yard and two dogs to keep yours company while you're away. They love to run around and swim in our pool. I work from home so I'm at the house to let them out.

About: I have previously worked in a dog and cat daycare, boarding, and grooming center for three years, and have watched pets of family friends since 2018. I have owned and cared for dogs, cats, snakes, birds, and more, and my family regularly fosters kittens! I am comfortable with feeding, giving medication (not injections), walking, and providing care for all types of pets. My schedule is completely available for overnight care at your home, daily drop-ins, single visits, or walks. Please ask me about any accommodations you may need and I will see if I can provide them. In your house, I am happy to follow any instructions about leashed or unleashed time on walks or in your backyard, will feed on your schedule, and can spend time with your pet as much as you need. I am happy to try and accommodate any changes you may need to make, give updates with photos, and tell you any behavioral or medical changes as soon as possible.
“Jackson (my cocker spaniel) is VERY suspicious of new people. It takes him a long time before he is comfortable. I let Lawence know this upfront and he assured me that it would be fine. Before Jackson started his walk schedule, Lawrence met up with Jackson and myself to introduce himself. Jackson was still quite suspicious of this new person but was not hostile or mean. Lawrence started walking Jackson and at first, Jackson was hesitant to go walking with this stranger. After about 2 weeks, Jackson knows Lawrence, even knows his car when he pulls up and wags his stub in anticipation of his walk. I appreciate that Lawrence took it slow and let Jackson define the terms of their relationship....LOL.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Murphy on Rover is $16.05 per walk (as of July 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 .

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 Murphy. 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 Murphy.
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 Murphy. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
