Dog Walking Southeast

About: I grew up with dogs and cats and have been a faithful companion to my black cat, Odysseus, for the last 14 years. I also have experience caring for fish, snakes, and rats! I am working part time so I usually have flexibility during the day between 11am and 10pm to take care of your animals. Weekends are more limited but I can usually find time for an early morning or late night check in. I will be incredibly respectful of your home and do my best to make your pets feel comfortable and loved while you are away. I'll send you lots of pictures and all the detailed updates you want on your pets!

About: My name is Becky and I moved to Austin in 2018 from Miami. I grew up with indoor/outdoor cats and smaller dogs. I work a 8-4 Monday-Friday job but am available after 4:30pm anywhere in Austin and during the week and midday for South Austin visits/walks. I currently the proud parent of an orange tabby and regularly dog and cat sit. I love a chance to meet a new buddy. I am a quick drive to anywhere in Central Austin and work down south for an after work or lunch hour walk. Always looking for an excuse to go for a walk and I would love to show your fur baby around. Message me to see if I can care for your pet while away! - Becky I have a cat and regularly feed and clean litter box and exercise him. I love when I’m watching a dog to go out on a quick and then longer walk in the day. I like to give the animal the first time I meet them some space and let them approach me. I always want to make sure the animal knows I’m here as well for their socialization

About: I have two dogs of my own, so I know how big of a deal it is to leave them with someone else. Your dog will be in a calm, clean home where they actually get attention and aren’t just one of a bunch. I work from home, so your furbaby won’t be left alone for long stretches, and I can stick to whatever routine they’re used to, whether that’s walks, playtime, or just hanging out. I have a big secure fenced yard for outside time, and I’m mindful about the kind of environment dogs do best in. I don’t overcrowd, and I try to keep things low-stress, especially for dogs that are a little more anxious or used to being in a home setting. I’ll send updates and photos while you’re away (because I know I’d want that too), and I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and well taken care of the whole time. My work is flexible, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups.Whether you need help on the weekdays or weekends, I’m here to help I have a fenced yard and two friendly fur babies to keep your pup company. They’ll be spoiled with a huge collection of toys and treats.

“Malery has been great! She has been walking my dog Tink most days for about a month, and Tink is so excited to see her each morning. She has great communication, and when something came up, she let me know if plenty of time so that I could ask another walker to come. Will most definitely ask her to help again!”

“Amie is amazing! She saved the day when I needed a last-minute, late-night walker for my pup. She was super patient as I struggled to figure out my remote security system too! And she showed my pup a lot of love. Choose her!!!!”

María L.

“For some reason, my dog was being very nervous this time around. Kianna went above and beyond! The first walk was cut short and she even stepped around to take them out again. She even took my booking last minute. Couldn’t be more thankful!”

About: As a dog and cat owner, I have hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime and litter-box care. I understand how worrying it can be to leave your pets while you’re away. During drop-in visits, I’ll follow their usual routine, refresh food and water, help with potty breaks, and make time for play or quiet company, whatever suits their age and personality. I’ll also send plenty of photos for your peace of mind. I’m a new mom with a one-year-old Corgi and an eight-year-old cat, so pet care is already part of my daily routine. I’d love to fit a few drop-in visits into my week around my family’s schedule, filling a little of my day with extra cuddles, playtime and company for your pets! I’ll follow your care instructions closely and let your pets get comfortable with me at their own pace. I’ll treat your animals (and your home) with respect and send photos and updates so you know how your pets are doing.

About: I am an independent contractor and work flexible hours M-F. I’ve cared for dozens of pets and enjoy treating each fur baby like it’s my own. I’m fully comfortable with both dogs and cats of any age and size. I hope to meet you and your pet sometime soon! I work M-F and only till 12:30 pm on Fridays. My weekends are typically open/flexible. So I’ll have plenty of time to help care for your pet! The dogs I usually care for stay in a gated area until walk times, at which time I take them out to relieve themselves/play for 30 minutes or so a few times during the day. However, I'm happy to follow any special instructions regarding your pet.

About: Hi, I’m Derik. I’m a former professional, full-time dog walker (2011–2016) with extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve handled multi-dog packs (up to 6 at a time), so I’m very comfortable managing energy, behavior, and group dynamics safely. Today, I offer a more personalized, structured experience—whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or small-group boarding. Your dog won’t just be “watched”—they’ll be engaged, exercised, and cared for with intention. I live an active lifestyle and prioritize: • Daily walks and outdoor time • Structured routines and calm environments • Safe, attentive supervision at all times For boarding, I keep things limited (2 dogs max plus my dog) and controlled to ensure every dog gets proper attention and an stress-free experience. This isn’t a free-for-all environment—it’s thoughtful, balanced care. I’m confident with: • High-energy dogs • Larger breeds • Dogs that need structure and guidance ⸻ 🐶 What You Can Expect: • Consistent communication and updates • A clean, safe, and calm environment • Dogs treated like part of the pack (with structure, not chaos) ⸻ ⚖️ Good Fit: I do best with dogs that are: • Social or neutral with other dogs • Comfortable in a home environment • Used to walks and basic structure ⸻ 🚫 Not the Best Fit: • Dogs with severe aggression • Dogs with extreme separation anxiety requiring constant 24/7 attention ⸻ If you’re looking for reliable, experienced, and structured care, I’d love to connect. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I’m home the majority of the day, allowing for consistent supervision and attention. I structure my day around morning, mid-day, and evening walks, along with regular outdoor time and balanced downtime. Because I’m home often, dogs in my care are rarely left alone and receive consistent interaction throughout the day. For high-energy dogs, I can also incorporate light runs or extended walks when appropriate. For boarding, I accept no more than 2 guest dogs at a time (including my own) to maintain a calm, controlled environment and ensure each dog gets proper attention and space. I’m also happy to schedule a meet & greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit. Safety and structure are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. With my background as a former professional dog walker, I’m very aware of how quickly situations can change—so I stay proactive, not reactive. In my home: • Dogs are always supervised and introduced slowly and intentionally • I maintain a calm, structured environment—no overcrowding or chaotic play • I only accept a limited number of dogs to ensure safety and individual attention • Separate spaces are available if a dog needs time to decompress During walks and drop-ins: • Dogs are always kept on secure leashes (unless in a safely enclosed area) • I stay aware of surroundings, other dogs, and potential triggers • I adjust pace, distance, and activity based on each dog’s needs and temperament I take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. Clear communication and consistency are key to keeping dogs comfortable and stress-free.

About: I bring a lifetime of experience and a whole lot of heart to every dog I care for. I’ve raised puppies into well-behaved adults, trained a variety of breeds with different personalities and energy levels, and I’ve been around dogs of all shapes and sizes for as long as I can remember. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs plenty of stimulation or a senior dog who needs patience and gentle care, I’ve got it covered. I’m also confident handling dogs with medical needs, including those with conditions like epilepsy. I understand how important it is to follow care routines closely and stay calm under pressure. What truly sets me apart is the combination of experience, intuition, and genuine love I have for animals. I’m active, reliable, and committed to making every dog feel safe, loved, and happy, whether we’re out for a walk, doing a check-in, or spending the night together while you're away. I have a flexible schedule and make my own work hours, so I’m usually available early mornings, early to mid afternoons, and most weekends. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine! At my home or yours, I will provide safe, loving care tailored to your dog’s routine, walks, meals, playtime, meds, and plenty of affection included.

“Ryan is our go-to walker for our Blue Heeler pup! Nova comes back tired and happy after her walks with Ryan and seems to genuinely enjoy the time out with him. He’s always on time, sends pictures of the walks and is super responsive with his communication. I am grateful to have found him on Rover and will definitely be booking walks and sits with him in the future!”

About: I had an older dog for four years that I love to take care of. I am flexible with the activity levels of your pets. I work remotely. My job is flexible, so I work from my home or somewhere else. I also am flexible on weekends for pet care. My complex is in a safe area and has an accessible walking trail. I have reliable transportation to get me to and from client’s home.

About: I started pet sitting when I was 18 to earn some extra money in college, and I’ve been doing it ever since. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and sizes, and I’m great at following special instructions. Additionally, photography is a hobby of mine, so there’s a pretty good chance that you’ll get some good pics of your pet in the process. I’m currently in graduate school, so I have a good amount of flexibility in my schedule, whether it’s during the week or over the weekend. I know how important your pet is as a member of your family! I’m happy to meet their needs, whether it’s walking, playing, belly-rubbing, or comforting them.

About: I have been petsitting since my days when I was a dog bather and really enjoy the personalities of pets. They make me so happy! I am self employed and have been trying to get back into my routine after Quarantine. I love taking regular walks, so if I could take your furry family with me, even better! I live in an apt so I would only be able to care for pets within your home. Each household is different, and I adhere to each individuals set of rules for their pets - as we know routine is good! PLEASE NOTE: If I am staying overnight, your pet will be fed breakfast/ taken out but my charge is done by 9am - if I am having to stay thru until lunch, then you will need to choose $30/ dog walking fee (or equivalent of a half day stay) If I am staying longer (until they need dinner the next day - please book a full overnight or 2 walks.) I am available for any clarification, just ask! Thanks. It helps to know your pets routines, if any, as they usually like structure and I am more than happy to accommodate your pets' needs.

About: Growing up I have always been around dogs of all kinds, but I’ve mainly loved being around smaller dogs! Their personalities are always so fun to be around and would love to meet your lovely pets. As someone who does freelancing work, I am a very flexible person to schedule with and can meet your needs when taking care of your precious pets. As a cat owner myself, I know how to earn the love and make them trust me. The care that an animal provides for a person and we provide for them is such a different kind of love. With me as your pet sitter, you can trust your pets in my hands!

“Bryce is the best dog walker we’ve ever had.”
