About: Hello! I've been away for a while as my family and I were traveling in an RV for several years. We are home bound for a time, taking a break from nomad life. Looking forward to caring for your fur babies again! The important stuff: It's never too early, or too late to book a visit, and I can accommodate any special diet or oral medication requirements. Final booking subject to initial meet-and-greet, but most pets should be accepted, as long as there are no severe aggression issues. Pictures and videos will be available on request- wouldn't want to bug you at work or interrupt a meeting! Please text me for updates so I know you are able to accept them. The more you ask, the more I'll send! Why I love pet sitting I've had pets for as long as I can remember- Started with a cocker spaniel named buffy when I was a baby, two cats named Oscar and Meijer, no third cat, for obvious naming issue reasons! haha, a rottweiler named Sheba during my pre-teen and teen years, a few temporary fosters in my early 20's, the adoption of my sweet lab mix, Bella, in 2009 from the Houston SPCA, and the craigslist rescue of Holo the husky when we purchased our first home in September of 2012. We currently have two house panther rescues from Paws and Whiskers, Wednesday and Deimos, named by my 7 year old. I can do social drop-ins and feeding for cats or other small animals as well! Also comfortable with reptiles. My experience administering medication: I do not have formal veterinary training to give shots. Please limit meds to the edible/sprayable/droppable kinds. I'm a stay at home mom, and my husband works full time, so my availability is limited around my child's schedule. Typically I'm open nights and weekends, with possible morning visits after meeting and for return customers. I can't offer services in my own home currently, but I'm happy to stop in just for walks and food, or stay for longer social visits to give your pets some extra love and attention.

“We were a little uneasy about our first time letting someone else take care of our dog, but Teagan has been great with Teemu! She can sometimes be a handful to walk but she seems to be much more well behaved with Teagan. Teagan is very communicative and flexible, she’s been very easy to work with too. We’re very grateful to have found someone who is so great with our dog, she’s made the whole thing very easy! 10/10 recommend!”

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 Temperance. 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 Temperance.

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 Temperance. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
