About: I specialize in premium, detail-oriented care for dogs that need both a physical outlet and mental enrichment. Whether your dog is a social butterfly or a sensitive soul who needs a little extra grace, I tailor my approach to ensure they are tired, happy, and secure by the time you get home. Having managed the pulling power of large breeds and raised reactive, high-drive mixes, I know firsthand that not every dog is an easy walker. I bring a calm, highly disciplined, and observant approach to every visit. What truly sets me apart is my commitment to not just your pet's well-being, but your total peace of mind. My Special Skills & Premium Services Include: High-Drive & Large Breed Management: Confident, safe leash-handling and focused exercise for powerful working breeds and strong pullers. Behavioral Reinforcement: Utilizing consistent positive reinforcement, professional handling techniques, and keen observation of canine body language. Reactive Dog Handling: Creating safe, predictable, and low-stress environments for anxious or sensitive dogs. The "Extras" Standard: Going above and beyond with thorough post-visit clean-ups, basic maintenance brushing, and exceptional respect for your home. Unmatched Communication: Providing highly detailed updates and quality photos so you never have to guess how your pet's day is going. I am dedicated to building long-term bonds and am currently prioritizing clients looking for reliable, recurring weekly walks and drop-ins. Pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it is my full-time profession! As the owner and operator of A&A Professional Pet Care, my entire week is built around providing exceptional, highly reliable care for your pets. Here is how my schedule works to serve you and your pets: Consistent, Recurring Schedules: My primary focus is establishing reliable, weekly routines for walks and drop-ins. I want to become a consistent, trusted fixture in your dog's week, giving busy professionals total peace of mind. Dedicated Midday Care (9 AM - 5 PM): I am available Monday through Friday to provide the perfect midday break. Whether your dog needs an engaging walk, a structured drop-in, or focused mental enrichment while you work, I have you covered. Select Weekend Coverage: I offer weekend care on a rotating basis, providing trusted drop-in coverage for those busy Saturdays or quick weekend getaways. I do not offer overnight stays!!!! Whether I am taking your dog for an engaging walk, visiting for a midday drop-in, or providing in-home care, your pets and your property are treated with the highest level of respect. My approach to pet care combines physical exercise with targeted mental engagement. I love incorporating short, positive training sessions and enrichment games into our day to keep their minds sharp. They will get plenty of scheduled feedings and "tummy rub" downtime, but they will also get the structure and focused play they need to stay happy and appropriately tired out. When caring for pets in your home, my "extras" are standard. You can expect: Total Home Respect: I leave your home exactly as I found it—or cleaner! This includes thorough post-walk wipe-downs so muddy paws never track through your house. Premium Upkeep: I am happy to provide basic maintenance like brushing to keep your pet's coat looking great between grooming appointments. Complete Peace of Mind: You will never have to wonder how things are going. I provide comprehensive, highly detailed updates and quality photos after every single visit. Your dog won't just be watched; they will be active, engaged, and exceptionally well cared for.

I’m so open to checking in and taking them on walks, spending time with them, or overnight stays if needed! I’m a college student at UMHB and have a part time job.

About: I’ve taken care of many pets from small dogs to big dogs. My sister works in the vet field and has came home with a million rescue dogs to take care. I learned how each dog/ breed is unique and that each provides different care which is important. I’m currently a SAHM! So I give pets a lot of playtime. Try to take them on daily walks around 6 with the family :) I have a fenced backyard so dogs can go out and enjoy themselves. Since I have a kid, everything in my home is child proof, so they will both be safe from getting hurt
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, so pets aren't a side hobby for me. They've been part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. Over the years I've cared for dogs, cats, and even snakes, which has taught me how to read each animal's personality, spot when something's off, and keep them comfortable when their favorite person is away. I'm especially comfortable with puppies and kittens. I know they need extra patience, frequent potty breaks, close supervision, and plenty of play to burn off energy. Your little one will be safe, entertained, and kept on track with any training you've started. What also sets me apart is how I communicate. You'll get regular photo and video updates, so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I stick to your routine, from feeding times to walks to bedtime quirks, because consistency helps pets feel safe. As a Killeen local, I understand how busy life gets for working families and military families. Whether it's a weekend trip, a long work week, or a TDY, I treat your pet like my own and your home with the same respect. Pet care is already part of my daily rhythm. I build my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and updates, so your pet gets consistent attention. In my home, pets get a safe, clean space, their usual food and routine, plenty of play, and supervised time with me. In your home, I follow your routine exactly, keep everything tidy and secure, and send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 667 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across The Grove. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 The Grove. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in The Grove after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 The Grove. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
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.
