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 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: 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 love animals and will treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I will communicate consistently and send photo updates on visits. I do work full time, my current hours rotate Monday through Friday. Weekends are always free unless I have military obligations, my schedule will reflect accordingly if so. I have two cats who roam around the house as they please. Security is important to me and I always double check doors and ensure nothing is out that may pose a threat to anyone in the house.

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.

About: I have experience with many family, friends, and have made connections with others sitting for vacations or if it’s just a simple walk! I have also been around dogs my whole life with my own and know how to properly take care of all ages. I know leaving your furry friend can be stressful so my goal is to help you leave some stress behind and know your pup is in loving and caring hands! Being with dogs is my happy place so I enjoy all the little things. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I can also snap as many photos as you’d like while we hangout! I am all full time Chick-fil-A manager working mostly afternoons. I am available for care from 8AM-2PM. I can also do drop ins after 10PM. I am open on my off days which is Sunday and Thursday. Feel free to message me beyond that and I will try my best to make it work! I treat every dog like it’s my own! I follow their normal routine of what they’re used to. I will always make sure they have food and water, give them the proper care, give them plenty of attention, playtime, and walks. I also make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times! I feel like I can have a special bond with dogs just from my personal enjoyment and connection with them!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Thixton on Rover is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $22 per walk. walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,111 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 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 Thixton 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 Thixton. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
