“Alyssa has been amazing! Always on time and always providing detailed notes, and lots of photos as well during her walks with my family’s 2 dogs. She has gone above and beyond in so many ways…we could not be any happier! Thank you, Alyssa!!!”

About: Growing up, my mom was always finding strays to add to our family. I've been responsible for the feeding, cleanup, and exercise of countless dogs since I was a kid and have learned how to work with any personality and temperament. I work full-time but spend my afternoons working remotely at home. I am available for drop-ins and walks after 2pm on weekdays and all day on weekends. :) Due to HOA rules I am unable to fence my yard so I spend plenty of time walking, swimming, and running with my dog, Oy, at the nearby lake. He roams my home freely but I do have experience crate training puppies.

“Sara was so great to help care for my pet at the last minute in an emergency. She was prompt and great about sending pictures and giving me an update on his activities. Definitely recommend her. Thanks Sara !!”

About: I've had a dog for as long as I can remember. I've watched over dogs for neighbors, friends, and family. I have had all sorts of pets from cats to dogs to birds. All have been lovely companions and precious members of my family. Each one has held a special place in my heart! ☺️ As a student living away from home, I deeply miss the daily joy of caring for dogs. Back home, I looked after an Australian Shepherd and a terrier mix, so I am very comfortable managing high-energy breeds and keeping them happily exercised. I also raised a sweet coonhound/basset hound mix, giving me a soft spot for gentle hounds. I am excited to bring that same love, patience, and dedicated care to your fluffy family members! My priorities for pets are Hygiene, Routines, and Care. Making sure pets are clean and comfortable, well fed, and well rested is most important! Ultimately, you know your furbaby best, so I am always completely open and attentive to any specific instructions or routines you request!

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

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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.
