About: Hi, I’m Shelbee—your pet’s next favorite human (and hopefully your go-to sitter, too)! I’ve always had a soft spot for animals and genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your dog loves long walks and endless games of fetch or your cat prefers quiet company and chin scratches, I’m happy to meet them where they’re are and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel stressful because I’d feel the same way! That’s why I focus on making the experience as easy and reassuring as possible. You’ll receive thoughtful updates, plenty of photos, and honest communication, so you’ll never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing. I’m reliable, patient, and detail-oriented, so I’ll happily stick to your pet’s routine, administer basic care exactly as instructed, and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. My goal is simple: for you to leave feeling completely confident, and for your pet to have so much fun they can’t wait for my next visit. I can’t wait to meet you both! 🐾 I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, which makes me available most evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible and always aim to be dependable, communicative, and on time. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, a walk, or overnight care, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your fur baby is a big decision, so I treat every pet with the same care, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your home clean and secure, and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable and cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for many years, I’ve always grown up around all types of dogs. I’ve pet sat for many friends and family members. I’ve watched puppies and senior dogs, I have also watched animals who need insulin shots!. I’m currently working part time and have plenty of extra time, i love to work with animals and hopefully looking to turn pet sitting into a full time Job. When I care for pets in clients' homes, I focus on maintaining their routines and providing a stress free environment. This includes regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, and plenty of playtime and affection. I also make sure to keep their living areas clean and tidy, and I'm always on the lookout for any changes in behavior or health that might need attention. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away:)

About: I've grown up taking care of animals of my own, from hamsters to dogs and cats. I live an active lifestyle and love to have a furry companion by my side when spending time in nature (and at home). I'm a college student that's home for the summer with open and flexible availability. Please feel free to reach out with questions! I have complete open availability as I currently work from home, so I have plenty of time to give your friend the full attention they may need. I'm skilled at understanding animal needs, and I'm well-prepared for whatever needs your friend requires. If there's any uncertainty on my end, I will prioritize timely communication with you about next steps.

About: I've been in the house/pet sitting business for a couple years now. I've worked in houses with anywhere between one animal to seven animals! I am absolutely open to exotic pets as well as I have a few of my own and would love to meet different species. I also worked in a zoo for 4 years, and currently work in a vets office, so I have plenty of different experiences. I look forward to meeting your babies:) I currently work at a vets office Thursday-Saturday from 9am-5:30pm (1pm on Saturdays), and volunteer Sunday nights, so I would unfortunately not be able to provide around the clock care. Otherwise, I am at the home all day! I am open to frequent walks, brushing, bathing, giving medication, and any other specific needs for your pet! I understand how tedious and picky some animals tend to be, so I'm open to any accommodations necessary.

About: I grew up in an animal-friendly household among big dogs, small dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, lizards, ferrets, you name it! I have experience with animals of all ages, abilities, and temperaments and strive to do what I can to keep them happy and comfortable! I am a full time college student pursuing music, so I will have the occasional concert that makes me unavailable, but I often have the weekend free or evenings/nights/early mornings. I definitely strive to leave everything in a client’s home just as I left it, besides a happy and/or well-fed dog, cat, or other furry or scaly creature. As long as I know where to locate the food, bowls, leash/harness, and/or backyard I’m good!

About: I have had fur babies all my life. From puppy stage to senior care. They are truly part of the family. I look forwards to loving on yours I have the please of working from home, fitting your pet into my daily routine would be identical to how I am able to send time with my own. I have a huge fenced in yard. I have one fur baby he is a bernedoodle who is turning two at the end of this year. He gets along great with other dogs and enjoys the company. So I am able to provide each pet with the love they need I have very limited space on how many dogs I will keep at once. If your pet enjoys walks, we will go on walks, enjoy fetch in the backyard, we will play fetch in the back yard. Your pet is part of my family once you guys enter my home. I do have children who love to run around with animals also.

We have been using Isaac recently to walk our two lab puppies a bit here and there to get them more socialized and used to walking on a leash. I was a bit hesitant at first handing over my babies to someone we didn't know, especially because they can be a handful at times, but Isaac has really put me at ease. He is so patient with them and shows a caring attitude. One of our babies can be a bit rambunctious sometimes and Isaac has shown his willingness to work with her when needed. And again, his patience! He takes time to try and reinforce commands while on the walks, makes me feel comfortable handing over my babies to him. He's always professional and polite, on time, with a good attitude. I recommend Isaac to anyone needing someone to assist with their fur babies. He gives me pointers when needed or asked, and seems to treat the girls like family when he's with them.

About: My love for animals came very young with two family cats, and later also a dog, and has continued into my adulthood, now with my three cats Opal, Basil, and Juniper. I have experience with both puppies and kittens, having helped raised both from just a couple weeks old. I enjoy being a part of your pets routine and love when they are excited for my arrival. I want to make sure they feel loved and safe with me, and know that it will always be a fun time with me around. I know cats are typically more hesitant to trust, but I am willing to take the time to gain it to make them feel safe while I am over. Every pet is different so please let me know how I can best help you and your pet to make this as seamless and enjoyable for every one. I am also familiar with medicating dogs and cats (either pill or liquid oral meds). I have a fairly open calendar so just let me know what works best to continue your pet’s routine so i can do my best to maintain their normal feeding, walking, and activity schedule! I live in a nice, pet friendly community. Any time your pet is outside I will be with them with their leash or harness on if requested.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Thixton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Thixton on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 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 .

As of September 2026, there are 1,117 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Thixton. 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 your Thixton. 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 Thixton.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Thixton. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
