“Alexandra goes above and beyond for Bentley even though it’s a simple walk! It’s very clear she loves dogs and I feel like Bentley is in good hands when she’s walking him!”

About: I've had cats and dogs ever since I've been alive. I have been pet sitting and dog walking for family, friends and neighbors for 20+ years. I am currently available Monday, Wednesday and Thursday during the daytime. I look forward to getting acquainted with you and your furry companion(s) and loving them as you do. I will care for your fur baby in your home and on the streets, sidewalks and areas that you feel are safest for your pet in your neighborhood.
“Jill arrived just a few minutes early so she could start Dash's walk right on time. Our tail wagged welcomed her at the door and really enjoyed his walk. This was the first time Jill B. walked out dog and we will definitely use her services again! Thanks Jill!”

About: I love all pets and have had two dogs of my own. My first was a terrier mix and my current is a staffie, so I am well accustomed to larger dogs. Additionally, I have been trusted in multiple instances to take care of other people’s pets ranging from bully breeds to pugs. I would love the opportunity to make sure your pet is well taken care of and loved when you need it! Throughout my life I’ve been surrounded by various types of dogs, ranging from chihuahuas to pits, big energy to small, and puppy to senior! This has given me the knowledge and experience to provide adequate care for your pup no matter where they are in their life or how special their personality is! My favorite part about dogs is how expressive they are! They love showing love and really are a great best friend! Currently, I am a teacher and am on summer break, so my availability is very open. I care for your pets as if they are my own! I prioritize meeting their needs and wants, and making your fur baby feel safe and loved. I follow their food, medication, and potty break routines closely! I will send check-in photos and texts during my visits. I am very reliable when it comes to the safety and well-being of your pet. They will always be fed and/or walked on time, or whatever else they may need. I have a large dog and she can play a little roughly sometimes, so that isn’t a problem if yours is the same. I can guarantee that they will feel loved and cared for under my supervision.

About: I provide attentive, dependable dog care focused on safety, structure, and enrichment. I have experience working with dogs of various sizes, breeds, and energy levels, and I tailor my care to match each dog’s routine and personality. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or companionship, I make sure every dog feels secure, engaged, and well cared for. I work from home Monday–Friday (7:00 AM–4:00 PM), which allows me to provide consistent attention and reliable care throughout the day, every day. I am sometimes available during the lunch hour. I provide safe, attentive pet care in my one-bedroom apartment with two cats and one dog, ensuring a calm, supervised environment where pets are kept comfortable, on routine, and given individual attention. I focus on feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and an stress-free stay. When caring in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain the pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, litter care, and any special needs.

About: I have loved caring for animals since the moment my family took us to get a dog and two cats at the age of 10.

Since I’m an elementary school teacher on summer break, I have lots of time and flexibility to focus on the pets I care for. I love starting the day with walks and playtime, checking in throughout the day for cuddles and enrichment, and keeping each pet on the routine they’re used to. With my open summer schedule, I can give pets steady attention and make sure they feel right at home. At my home, pets get a mix of structure and love regular meals, outdoor time, play, and lots of cuddles. I make sure they feel safe and settled, just like they would in their own home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their routines so everything feels familiar and stress‑free for them. Being off for the summer as a teacher gives me the flexibility to be fully available and attentive to each pet’s needs.

About: For the past couple of years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and family. I’ve handled everything from overnight stays to daily feeding and walking schedules. I’m used to following specific instructions for feeding and making sure pups stay on their routine. I am currently a college student at The University Of Texas at Dallas and work part-time at H-E-B, but I have a very consistent routine. I have plenty of time between my classes and work shifts for potty breaks and walks. I am dedicated to being punctual and will always make your pet’s exercise and feeding schedule my top priority. Safety is my number one priority when caring for your pets. I am extremely careful with leashes and securing gates during walks or home visits. Because I am used to the high standards of my job at H-E-B, you can trust that I will be responsible, respectful of your home, and provide frequent photo updates.

We also have a fun bike attachment where I take our older dog for bike rides with the company of a furry friend. I can come either for a short play session, a long walk, or even watch your baby overnight if needed. I love all breeds and am open to going to areas all around the city of Dallas and outside of.

Britney was absolutely incredible to my girl! She truly has a gift. My sweet baby is my emotional support animal and have separation anxiety when we’re not together. Britney changed that around and had outstanding communication and love for my girl while I was away for a trip. Thank you Britney and will be booking again!
Molly was wonderful. She provided dog walking services for one of my dogs for 5 evenings. She always arrived right on time. She took the time to read my dog’s profile to familiarize herself with his idiosyncrasies. Although somewhat unusual, she allowed me to walk my other dog with her. She was very gentle and kind with my dogs and helped me immensely. I would absolutely book her again for this service.

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 Richardson. 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Richardson. 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.
