“Maya was an absolute pleasure. She did exactly what I asked—walked my dogs and showed patience with both of them. One of my dogs is nervous and the other can be a bit of a brat, but she handled them with ease. Even in the 80-degree weather, she stayed upbeat and smiling the entire time. She was so accommodating, and it’s clear my dogs are happier because of her care. Thank you, Maya! Highly recommend!”
About: I’m an animal lover who was raised on a farm in Indiana but dogs have a special pull on my heart strings. Look no further for someone to care for your fur babies. I’m responsible and mature with 20 years of experience taking care of various animals; cats, dogs, horses, goats, human children and more. I treat them all like I do my own babies; lots of love, respect and training. I am confident and experienced when it comes to puppy and senior dog care; including administering various medications. I’m currently home full-time which allows me to focus my attention on the fur babies and provides for plenty of playtime, walks and car rides to the local dog park (only if mom/dad approve). Don’t worry while you’re away, I’ll send updates and photos!!
About: I’ve cared for animals since childhood and previously worked as a dog groomer. I’m now teaching my daughter how to responsibly care for pets, and she absolutely loves animals. Together, we’d be happy to treat your pet with the same love, attention, and care as our own. I work from home and homeschool my daughter so we will have plenty of time to care for your pet full time. Long walks along the beltline or local park is part of our daily routine. I provide a calm, safe, and clean environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions. Pets get plenty of attention, supervision, and playtime throughout the day so they feel engaged and cared for, not stressed or alone. I make sure they always have fresh water, a comfortable resting space, and a low-stress atmosphere. I also limit exposure to any hazards and keep a close eye on behavior and wellbeing. My goal is for every pet to feel like they’re staying in a second home, not just being watched.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was very little and have always loved dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. Animals, especially dogs, bring me so much joy which is what inspired me to start dog sitting! I love checking in, playing with, and feeding my sister’s Frenchie when she’s out of town and I know I’d love your dog!! I’m currently in between jobs right now so I have plenty of time for your pups! My schedule is super flexible and open I can sometimes do last minute check-ups if needed! I have two very friendly boykin spaniels of my own which I absolutely adore. I very easily adjust to dogs of all behaviors & can do just about anything needed to care for your little (or big) ones!!!
About: I’ve cared for my family and friends pets with great joy. This is my passion especially puppy comfort time, house breaking and basic training commands. I’m available around my flexible part time work schedule so that I can properly care for your fur babies during your schedule. With advanced notice I can be available for specific times also. I have a fenced yard for run and play. Also I provide comfy pillows and blankets or I can easily crate your fur babies during undisturbed naps.
About: I take great care of my own animals and love dogs and cats myself. I am very responsible for my own animals and will be for yours. I’m in school as georgia southern and currently a sophomore. I am taking 6 classes but 3 online and am available before 9 am and after 3 pm on certain days. I can walk your dog and feed your dog. I will play with your dog and take care of your babies. I have my own puppy as well.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life; personally, have owned Corgis, Labs, Pitbulls, short and long hair cats, snakes, and rabbits! I love cats and dogs of all breeds/energy levels. I have experience working with pets that are nervous around new people or other animals. I can do drop ins/walks as often as you need. I think it is important that our furry friends get to relieve stress on their walks or have a friend to just hang out with, so they won't ever feel left alone. Your fur babies will be treated and taken care of as if they were my own; I look forward to hanging out with your little and/or big ones. 💌 I typically work 3 night shifts a week as a nurse, so have a lot of flexibility with my availability on my days off from work. I'll be happy to accommodate and work with the times you need me. We all have preferences and routines for our fur babies and so I will happily keep to your instructions as best I can. I will walk your dogs as well as play and snuggle. I will love on them and treat them as my own. Each visit will be filled with devotion, TLC, and never rushed.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12, I grew up with four of my own and would often pet sit for my neighbors. I also now own cats and have around 4 years of experience taking care of them personally! I am, luckily, able to create my own work schedule so I can be available any day and anytime morning or night for your pets! I do not offer services in my own home due to my personal pets, but in your home I can make sure that your pet is comfortable and not lonely while you are gone! I love to play with animals and am very good with a schedule if you have one! I also love to spend time outside so taking your pet out or for a walk is no problem either!
“Crissy is very experienced and knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. She is responsible, friendly, responsive, and flexible with unforeseen circumstances. Would highly recommend her!”
About: I have work experience at a pet store and have worked with many different pets and animals! I have been relied on to take care of their various needs. Such as cleaning up after messes, doing feeding schedules, play-time, etc. I also have grown up around all animals. There’s never been a moment in my life where I was pet-less. I have 3 cats and 1 dog myself, and other family members even have whole reptile rooms. Needless to say, I’m an avid animal lover and owner. I do currently work part-time! With enough notice however, It’s fairly easy for me to make time for pet sitting, dog walking, bathroom breaks, etc. Animals are a priority. I am very communicative. If by any chance I run into any questions or bumps in the road, I will give a phone call or send a text message. I never want any pet parents to be “out of the loop.” I work very well with treat training or praise. If I need to crate an animal, I prefer positive reinforcement. I treat animals how I would want to be treated! I love meeting dogs or cats first to establish some trust or a comfortable relationship. A decent conversation with an owner would work as well.
About: I have over 5 years of professional animal care experience and well over 10 in personal animal care experience ranging from raising and training litters of puppies to assisting with horses. I have had animals all my life and was raised to put their care before my own. For the last 5 years I have worked in vet clinics while in school at UGA pursuing a degree in animal biological sciences. While working in those vet clinics I have worked as both a boarder and a vet tech at a fear free clinic dealing with both calm and more aggressive animals. My duties in these positions were watering, feeding, walking, and administering medication for pets ranging from 6 months old to elderly. I am very well versed in all types of animals and am happy to answer any questions you may have for me! I am a teacher and am entering summer break so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets! While I cannot house sit due to having a dog of my own I am more than happy to take time to visit your fur baby when necessary while my dog plays with my family pets at home! I provide a safe, calm, and reliable experience for pets during walks and drop-in visits. I treat every pet like my own and follow all my clients instructions carefully to keep pets comfortable, happy, and safe. Safety is very important to me, so I always use secure leash practices, pay close attention to my surrounding during walks, and make sure doors and gates are secure before leaving. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners are sure their pets are in good hands.
“Bonnie was wonderful with our dogs. She was patient and made sure they had everything they needed during their walks and meals. I look forward to using her again in the future. ✨”
About: i’ve been around animals for as long as i can remember. i’ve sat for family, friends, and neighbors all of which have trusted me to walk, play, bathe, feed, and check in or keep their loved animals. Im currently self employed and make my own schedule so I have plenty of time to care for your pups/cats. I have a 6 year old who is currently in school from 7:30-3pm, but afterschool is always an option if I’m needed during pickup hours. I have a fenced in yard and 2 sweet, easy going dogs and 1 cat. One pup is an (almost) year old dachshund and the other is a 4 year old lab mix- both of which love playing with other animals.
About: I’m here to help! I’ve worked with dogs from puppies to seniors. But also worked with dogs with behavioral problems and overall shy dogs. Also have trained a few dogs as well! I’m always available on weekends but on week days I’m free after 4:30pm to walk and check up on any of your pets! And if it’s in the only on week days it would be anytime before 8:30am. I’m huge into following directions and having good communication with my clients. Making sure I know if there’s any triggers or problems your pets have before 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 Temple. 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 Temple.

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 Temple. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
