“Vickie is great. My dog, Bella, adores her. She is personable, responsible, and clearly loves animals. Also, she is familiar with, and does not live far from. the subdivision we live in - The Trace in Kingspoint. I would encourage anyone seeking a dog walker to book with a Vickie.”


“Sirrine has helped us quite a few times when we have been in a pinch. She always takes good care of our pups! She usually takes them on a long walk, takes cute photos and ensures they have food, water, and treats! I know my pups are in good hands with her!”


About: I’ve cared for over 30 dogs throughout high school and college, providing pet sitting for friends, family, and new clients. Whether you have energetic puppies, senior pets, or shy cats, I will make sure each one feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you are away. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to keep their routine, comfort, and happiness a top priority. I’m home from college and currently have a completely open schedule, which means I can give your pet my full attention! I’m flexible with timing and available for last-minute bookings, daily check-ins, walks, or extended stays—whatever works best for you and your pet. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable. I follow their usual routine, whether that’s morning walks, feeding times, or play sessions. I’m attentive to their habits and needs, and I always take the time to make sure they feel calm and cared for while you’re away. I love spending one-on-one time with each pet, whether it’s playing fetch, going for a walk, or just hanging out together. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is happy and in good hands.

“Madeline was prompt and courteous. She is also a great photographer. I kept all the pictures she took of my dog. We communicated by leaving notes for each other, and she was very kind when tending to my pet. I would recommend her to anyone on the Rover app and I will also book her, in the future, the next time I’m out of town.”

“Alexa has been a huge help in our busy schedule. My boy Loki enjoyed her company from the time we first had our meet up. She’s great on being on time and works with you. Oooh and our feral cat enjoys popping up for a quick hello which is huge for her to do that. Highly recommend Alexa! Will continue to book her 🐾”

About: I used to volunteer at my local animal rescue; working with all kinds of dogs with different kinds of needs, temperaments, and health conditions.

About: I’m excited to welcome and care for your pup in our family home! I provide a loving, comfortable environment where your dog can feel safe, relaxed, and right at home. Before becoming a mom, I was a dog mom to two very different pups—a tiny 5-lb terrier and an 80-lb Great Pyrenees/Collie mix—for a little over five years. Having cared for dogs on both ends of the size spectrum, I understand that every pup has their own personality, needs, and comfort level. I’d love the opportunity to give your pup plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with me. I will be the sole caretaker for all Rover bookings, and any interactions between pets and my children will always be supervised by me. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available for dog walks and can also work pet care into my daily routine when caring for a pup in my home. I enjoy getting outside for walks and am happy to follow each dog’s usual walking, feeding, potty, and care routine as closely as possible. Safety and comfort are always a priority. For walks, I’ll follow your instructions and your dog’s usual routine, keeping their temperament, energy level, and surroundings in mind. When caring for a dog in my home, I have a securely fenced backyard for outdoor time and a nearby shaded trail for walks. I have a 10-year-old and a 3-year-old in the home, so it’s important that dogs staying with me are comfortable around children. I will always supervise any interactions between my children and pets in my care. We don’t currently have a dog of our own, and I will be the sole caretaker responsible for all Rover bookings.

About: We are a new family of three and are preparing to add a wired hair fox terrier in the near future. We had a family dog when I was young but he sadly passed away due to old age. My husband and son love dogs and all animals. His previous pair of dogs was sadly stolen from him and he hasn’t been ready to get another pet. That recently changed when our son started showing extreme interest in dogs and other animals. We want to test the waters with dog boarding and walking to see before committing. For us, a pet is forever. I work from home and my work is flexible. I can accommodate changes in schedule. My office is in the galleria area and my house is in humble. I can do dog walks in the galleria area as well. I have a fenced backyard and empty rooms to house the dogs if they need to have their own space. We live in a very friendly neighborhood and parks nearby.
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life. Growing up with cats, dogs, fish, and house rabbits, has made caring for them second nature for me. My services range from daily walks, daily check-ins to extended overnight in-home stays. Most pets experience less anxiety when they are able to stay in their own home. With extended home stays, I provide light housekeeping services with the overnight stays, making it look as if I were never there. It is my pleasure to provide daily updates (sometimes multiple) pictures and videos. I have five years of pet sitting experience with references available upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-baby. Initial interview is required for all pet sitting jobs. Required with all jobs: care instructions in writing, medications list and dosing information, and veterinarian contact information. I am available for any pet or home sitting for any day of the week, all day. I do have a family dog who is not pet or stranger friendly. So no pet will be brought into my home. I have grown up with animals all my life, making caring for them second nature. Most pets experience less anxiety when they are able to stay in their own home. I also recommend that owners write out their pets care, and vet information, because emergencies happen.
About: I have had a dog or multiple dogs all my life so I know very well how to take care of them love them walk them and play with them as well I love dogs!! Dogs have always been apart of my life and family and I have also had lots of experience with taking care of a elderly dog my dog I had for 16 years ended up being diabetic and needing insulin two times a day with a injection so I have a lot of experience with the extra needs of a dog and I am very well equipped to handle any situation necessary! I am very loving and kind and have a calm demeanor so dogs always take well to me! I would be ecstatic to meet new and amazing dogs I treat dogs like they’re my children. I have a dog at home that I take care of daily like a child, so I make any animal a priority. I’ll make sure I walk them thoroughly and make sure they’re put up and doors are all closed before letting them in and out. Make sure I always put the leash on I’m very aware of my surroundings, so no cars or other dogs could be around and if they are, I take precaution always.
About: I have had experience with lots of dogs. Considering i watched plenty of my families dogs. I raised four of my own . A Rottweiler ,Cane Corso, pitbull and African mastiff . Self trained these four big breeds. Which i can say i can walk either one outside with no leash. I love dogs I will care for yours as if they were part of my pack. I work from home, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and supervision throughout the day. Since I’m home most of the time, I can stick to their feeding schedules, take dogs on walks, provide playtime, administer medications if needed, and make sure they’re comfortable and never left alone for long periods. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide a calm, safe, and loving environment while their owners are away. I would consider bringing your pets own toys. If your pet needs to be caged I can work with that. Also bring your pets own leash or harness . If your pet was to stay I like to go on walks and I would need a leash or harness. If your pet has a schedule to eat or any routine I can work with that also just let me know. I would not except any aggressive or disobedient pets. If your pet is staying over night i would not except non home trained pets either.

There are not enough good words to describe Bre. She is not only personable, she is joyful when walking my dog. She's flexible with time, good-natured and very eager to learn my Dottie's personality and dos and donts of our little queen's walk. I can't handle Dottie bc of her brute pittie strength, but she handles her better than my 6'1" husband. She is a professional through and through. Also, my dogs are very cautious (they do not like everyone) and she was their instant bestie. She just has a way with dogs! I am very glad we took a chance on her because she's definitely the best. Truly we all feel so lucky to have found her. Thanks, Bre!

April is absolutely amazing! I am always careful about who I leave my dog with, but April immediately gave me complete peace of mind. She is incredibly responsible, reliable, and genuinely loves animals. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, so I never had to worry for a second. My dog absolutely adores her, which is the best sign of all. I highly recommend April to anyone looking for a trustworthy person. I will definitely be booking her again!

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 Porter. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
