About: With 6 years of hands-on experience working with dogs, I provide more than just pet sitting. My background includes training, walking, and caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities(even medical issues)—from young puppies to senior dogs. I have experience working with behavioral challenges and understand the importance of patience, structure, and positive interactions. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, understood, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I’m currently focusing more of my time and energy on animal care, which means I have greater availability and flexibility to provide attentive, dependable pet care. With 6 years of experience working with dogs through training, walking, and behavior-focused care, I’m available Monday–Friday from 10 AM–4 PM and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m not currently offering boarding in my own home, but I do provide in-home boarding and overnight care at the client’s residence. I’m active, engaging, and make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, playtime, feeding, and attentive care while keeping their routine consistent.
About: I’ve taken care of pets on and off for a while and absolutely love how each one has their own personality and traits! I can’t wait to meet more sweeties. I stay in Houston most of the year and have work majority of the day Fri-Sat but my availability is pretty flexible. Since I have pretty open availability just ask if a day/time works and I’m sure I can make it happen! I always try my best to make your pets feel comfortable while I’m in your home. After all it’s their comfort place not mine. I’ll always be ready with treats and pets :)
“Brittaney is very friendly and responsive. She helped to fulfill our needs for our dogs’ preferences for walking. I would like to have her again in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Emma! I’ve taken care of pets for my family, friends, and neighbors for years. I grew up with dogs throughout my life, and am now a cat-owner, so I have experience living with and caring for both! I love getting to know each animal’s distinct personality and building a relationship with them! Whether shy, snuggly, or playful, I love finding ways to connect with them personally. I have cared for many animals with specialized dietary needs, and feel confident administering oral and topical medications. I look forward to providing the same level of care for your sweet pet as I would for my own! I’m a recent BFA graduate from TTU, teaching after school voice lessons to children. I love giving back to the community, and building both functional and personal relationships with those around me! Since I work with children outside of school hours, I typically don’t start work until after 3pm, and the day ends when it gets dark (8-9pm). This gives me free time in the morning, early afternoon, and night to care for your pet. I am so happy to give your pet love and attention, and pride myself on reading animal’s emotions well so that I can keep them calm and happy while you’re away! I’ve cared for both dogs and cats in my home by ensuring they get proper exercise, lots of play time, gentle snuggles, and plenty of treats- your pet will be no exception! I pride myself on maintaining a clean environment for pets, which means meticulous litter care/waste management, refreshed food and water bowls, and necessary grooming. For pets with aggressive or reclusive tendencies, I offer a gentle and slow approach, letting them get to know me as I get to know them. I believe all pets deserve patience and respect as we learn each other’s boundaries, and I am absolutely willing to take the time to build a relationship with your pet on their terms! All pets deserve a calm and loving environment- I will take any and all steps available to ensure their safety and comfort!
“Amanda is an excellent pet sitter. She spent additional time with Milo going on walks and assisted with an emergency trip to the vet. My work schedule can be unpredictable and I’m glad Amanda was there to watch over Milo.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet owner and animal lover who has been caring for pets since I was five years old. Animals have always been part of my family, and I bring that same level of care, patience, and respect to every pet I work with. I currently care for a senior dog, which has given me hands‑on experience with medication routines, mobility awareness, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior. I understand how important consistency and gentle care are especially for senior pets or those who need a little extra attention. I’m home most of the time, so your pet will not be left unattended and will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and love throughout the day. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their routine as closely as possible. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own and would love the opportunity to care for yours! My Schedule & Availability The best part about booking with me? I’m home all day, every day. Your dog won’t be left alone waiting for someone to check in — they’ll have my full attention from morning to night. Whether it’s spontaneous playtime, an extra walk around the block, or just some couch cuddle time, I’m always here for it. Your dog will be treated like a true member of the household. My own pets help set a calm, welcoming tone, so most dogs settle in quickly and comfortably. A typical day includes: • Morning and evening walks • Midday play and enrichment time • Plenty of rest in a cozy, pet-friendly space • Regular feeding on your dog’s normal schedule • Daily photo and update messages to you
About: I'm a very fun and courageous person who enjoys going for walks and exploring outdoors. I can make your dog love me, just give me 5 minutes and I’m your dogs new best friend. I am a wonderful listener, so just tell me what you need me to do and everything will be purrfect. Having 2+ years experience at a dog daycare center in the past, I am skilled to manage the highs and lows with all pets. My responsibility is to stay with your pup at your home through out my whole stay, I will be there to protect, love, and feed them while you are away. On top of that I will be your housekeeper, watching over your home and cleaning any messes your pup and I make. My schedule is pretty much free the whole time I’m with your pup, so when I’m with them they have my whole attention. I can also teach them a few tricks because I'm quite excellent at it and I do not take care of 2 different families at the same time. My focus is taking care of one family at a time throughout my stay. I'm usually free all day, so your dog and I can have relaxing or enjoyable days together. But if I ever need to run some errands, depending on what they are, your dog can accompany me in a car ride or stay in your home, where it’s safe. When I arrive at your place, I make every effort to earn your dog's trust and make them feel more at ease. Usually your dog should already recognize me from our meet and greet. But if we have met or not, the first thing I do is take your dog on a walk, just to ensure them that I’m their care taker while you are gone, that would 100% make them comfortable with me. When we return, that is when I start giving rubs, treats, and cuddles. (yes I allow your dogs to sleep on my bed, if you are okay with them on your furniture). I hope I am the perfect match for you and your pup, thanks for reading about me.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have years of hands-on experience with pets of all kinds. I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors by walking, feeding, bathing, and spending quality time with their dogs. Recently, I’ve been pet sitting more consistently for friends, building strong trust with both pets and their owners. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with anxiety, so I’m patient, attentive, and mindful of each dog’s unique needs. My goal is always to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pup and I’m generally available Monday-Saturday from 8 am-8 pm. I respect your dog’s needs first and foremost but especially your personal boundaries as the homeowner. I’ve babysat in many client’s houses before and know the importance of respecting the environment. Please let me know your rules and requirements and I’m happy to adhere by them as I care for your pup!

The average cost for Dog Walking in South Houston on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 South Houston. 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. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in South Houston.

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 South Houston. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
