About: I’ve been pet sitting for the almost 7 years. My husband-who also works with me- has been taking care and sitting pets for the last 12 years. We have a beautiful, and energetic kelpie mix named Biscuit, and British shorthair named Eggs. Health and safety are a main priority to both of us. We like to make sure that all dogs in our care are well hydrated, and that no dog is in a situation that makes them nervous. We always make sure to provide the best care for each individual, because this isn’t just an animal, it’s a member of your family, and we know that you would want the best care for your family like we would. Currently I work part time. I am able to look after your wonderful pets full time all days of the week if given a 7 days notice of when services are needed. By ensuring that all equipment is properly secured with taking walks or engaging outdoors with environment or other animals, and that any messes are cleaned, whether it be on the animal or the places they are staying in.
About: I have had dogs my entire life, as a four years ago I got an orange cat and could not choose between either for the life of me. I cannot wait to meet and take care of your fur babies :) I am currently in nursing school only taking up 2 to 3 days a week. I am now available for boarding at my home so feel free to look into that as well!! I make sure that the bowls are always full, or their food has been given on time along with medication if needed. I also make sure they are getting as much outside time as they can get.
About: I really enjoy taking care of animals and would love the opportunity to help others when they need it as I am Also a stay at home mom. I am pretty flexible as I am Currently just doing dog sitting to make some extra cash to allow me to care for my family while staying at home. I respect the space you have for your pets and will treat it with the utmost of care. If I start Sitting at my home I have 5 acres with leads and crates to meet the needs of any animal.
About: I graduated from Texas State University with a Bachelor’s in Animal Science. I have 6+ years experience in a veterinary hospital setting caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. Animals are a true gift and I believe they all have a unique and special way of communicating with us. Through energy, body language, vocalization and behaviors. If we take the time to slow down and understand each animal for who they are, we can learn so much! I truly look forward to getting to know your fur babies and treating them as my own. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule! Plenty of time for walks, snuggles and backyard playtime. I am home most weekends and can accommodate extended stays or last minute pet care needs. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of room indoors for your pets to relax. I have 1 neutered male dog named Floki that is very well behaved and will love the company of your pets.
About: I’ve lived with animals all my life and have always had dogs and cats in my home, so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with pets of all ages, including playful puppies and senior pets who need extra care and comfort. I focus on making every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for, while keeping owners updated and reassured. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. I’m able to adjust my routine to match each pet’s needs and keep things as close to their normal schedule as possible I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust in every home. I follow all care instructions closely, keep a calm and clean environment, and make sure pets are always supervised and secure. I respect each client’s home as if it were my own and focus on making pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for with lots of attention and gentle handling.
About: Hey! My name is Stefanie and I have been taking care of animals for almost my entire life. I have experience with both cats and dogs and would love to watch your pets for you. I hold myself to the same standards that I would expect from my own pet sitters. I can handle animals of all shapes and sizes, even your giant breeds! I have experience in the veterinary field and have cared for pets with all types of dietary restrictions, medical needs, and temperaments - so if your pet needs some special attention, I'm your gal! I have had dogs for almost my entire life. As a child my family had a Lhasa Apso, and he lived a long and happy life with us. I have had pets of my own since 2014, and all my pups are seniors now - they have a special place in my heart! I also have two sweet young cats and would love to check on your feline kiddos. I am a full time mother so I am readily available for drop in visits, overnights, and walks. Please note that my infant son will be with me during all visits. I will of course assume responsibility for my kiddo being safe around your pets, but please be mindful of your pets' temperament with children when booking! My ideal scenario when caring for your pets is to adopt their current routine - I find that keeps them the happiest while their people are away. I'm happy to visit on whatever schedule is best for you, and I'm happy to do overnights as needed.
About: I worked as a program director for a nonprofit animal rescue in Jacksonville, Texas for six years. My specialty was working with behavioral dogs. Especially bringing in feral dogs and working with them to socialize them until they were ready to get a home. I have always been a pet owner and have owned multiple dogs at a time. I am comfortable with all types of dogs. Young & old, big & small, well-trained or needs some work, I love them all! I have been in the trenches in animal rescue so you will be hard pressed to find a situation that intimidates me. I also love cats & am comfortable caring for them. I own & care for a ball python so I’m comfortable with snakes as well. I’m open to other reptiles and small animals. I’m really open to any animals as long as someone is willing to show me the care they require. During the week, I have a very flexible schedule. You tell me what you need and I can probably make it work. Weekends will be open as well, but slightly less flexible. But I’m always open to negotiations.☺️🐾✌️ I can not offer care in my home due to my current setup but I am more than willing to meet all your needs at your home & am very qualified as a sitter! I am a lifelong animal lover & have years of extensive experience caring for animals, dealing with medical issues, behavioral issues, training, transporting & helping them find forever homes. I have experience with feral dogs & cats, hospice animals, & happy/healthy ones! I have done some amazing things in my career. But I have retired from the trauma of Rescue and now would like to have a more easy-going time getting to love on some babies that just want a sitter.🐾❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 197 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Pickens. 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 Pickens. 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 Pickens 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 Pickens. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
