About: I have 2 cats of my own and helped take care of a past 21 1/2 old cat my family had until 3 years ago. Cuddling and playing with cats bring me so much enjoy. My fiancé Sammie is a dog specialist. She handles the dog walking and dog care. She was raised around dogs, and dog sat in her childhood. I have a fenced yard that both of my cats go out and play and relax. My cats roam everywhere in the house and can curl up anywhere. I work part-time but will definitely make the time to take care of your babies. Other than that I have plenty of time to snuggle, cuddle, or play with your fur babies. My cats will go outside into a fenced off yard and while they are outside will keep an eye on them. I won’t force your animals to do anything with me but if they want to play or go outside (if that is allowed) I will happily do so.
About: I have been around many different animals in my lifetime taking care of them or even rescuing them, and making sure they are loved and safe. I work a part-time job so my schedule is flexible, but I also do babysitting and teach private dance classes for kids on the side. I can easily follow directions, if written down, making sure that your pet is well taken care of the way you would take care of your own pet if you were there.

Trust me your pet will not want to back from here after having a vacation with us! My dog and I will be at home all day. Your pet will get ample yard time and have lots of fun with us! I can provide bath and nutritious home cooked meal for your pet on request. I understand pets are like our babies and need the same care and love. I would be happy to note down all their requirements and follow their daily routine so that they do not feel anxiety in your absence. I stay in a big house with a fenced yard and with lots of walking and playing space all around.

About: Gentle giant whose goal is to walk a great dane!! Despite my height (6'11) I've only ever had great experiences with pets and being understanding. I've spent the last year raising a black Labrador named gauge from 2 weeks old and he's my best friend. I've dog sat for most family members on multiple occasions as my "side hustle". I've also got 2 kittens at home who are spoiled rotten. It would be an honor to take care of your little or not so little blessings!! Schedule is pretty open as I've relocated from east Texas into the area just recently. I'm almost always free to walk or drop in on any short notice :) Attention to detail!! Any specific rules or regimens will be followed just how you tell/show me. Keeping them comfortable and full of joy whether that be at home and/or having some time outside is my goal! Thank you for your consideration :)

OMG Zarina is a true gem!!! I have a very shy gentle giant who instantly loved Zarina the minute she walked through the door. Zarina is very attentive, uses great judgement for the safety of your fur baby. She even took time to hang out and play with my sweet boy after walking/feeding. I’m super grateful to have booked with Zarina and I cannot wait to book her again. Thanks again Zarina!!
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.
Zoila is very responsible and reliable - plus my lab mixes adore her and look forward to every visit - also she is proactive sending updates and pix, plus updates us if there are any changes or concerns she may notice - all of that is so comforting when we travel/ I strongly recommend her and have years of experiences w dog sitters - she is the BEST!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Murphy is $16 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $27 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Murphy. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Murphy after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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.
