About: Hi! I just moved to Dallas and I am a HUGE lover of all things animals! I have grown up with multiple cats my entire life, and took care of 7 stray cats in New Orleans over the past four years. I served at a local non-profit in Nola as well to help TNR 4 stray dogs, and an handful of sick kitties. I love taking walks with dogs, playing fetch, and giving snuggles + love to all animals!. I cannot wait to become best friends with your baby! I just moved to Dallas to pursue my Masters of Science in Counseling at SMU, and have a flexible schedule! I have class 3 days a week, so I am available for most mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I will make your pet’s care a priority! I love to play with pets and even taught my cat how to play fetch! I can bring enrichment toys to play with, snuggle up with your pet, or keep their company from a distance.

“Kyle came to pick up Flapjacks already prepared with treats for their walk. He was more than willing to use my clicker and provide treats to reinforce her training. He sent me lots of pictures of her on their walk and stopping to enjoy a stick. One half hour walk and she slept the rest of the afternoon and allowed me to work. I appreciated how friendly Kyle was and his willingness to continue my training with my pup on her walk. I would definitely recommend!”

“If you are looking for a friendly and reliable dog walker, Sara is your girl! Sara was a great communicator, always on time, and my dog loves her. I have a large dog with a lot of energy and Sara did a great job wearing him out on their walks.”

“McKenzie is awesome. She showed up on time, communicated exceptionally well and she was amazing with our puppers. This was our first time using Rover, and she made our experience a great one! We highly recommend McKenzie!”

“Clover was great! She arrives on time and let my pup sniff around and get to know her before she tried to pet her. Ollie seemed very comfortable and was happy when he came back from is walk!”

About: Growing up on a farm, I was around all kinds of animals and helped care for them. I’ve raised cats on my own for 15 years and often help my friends with their cats and dogs when they are away from home. I work full-time but have the flexibility to work remotely and make my own schedule outside of a couple of days when I’m in the office. Most of the time, I’ll be unavailable on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Understanding that every pet is different, I like to learn more about the pet from the owner and have one-on-one time with the animal to make sure we’re both comfortable with each other. Our trust and safety is my number one priority.
“Cameron is very friendly and easy to communicate with! She has been dependable and helpful with walking my dog multiple times a week when I’m working. Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have frequently cared for those of my friends and family members, including young pets. Coming from healthcare also gives me unique experience in caring for others and knowing how to manage health complications. My fiance and I have cared for his own cat who requires insulin for diabetes. I am a work from home professional with a log of flexibility within my schedule to support you. My fiance also has a hybrid role. I have experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I am able to walk pets of all sizes and care for them inside the home, whether it is crated or outside a crate. I have also raised pets with access to a backyard and deep pool so am comfortable maintaining pet safety both indoors and outdoors. Being a dietitian, I am knowledgeable with nutrition and food when it comes to pets and humans if needed!
“Erin was such a great help when I needed the last minute sitter. She was very diligent about her care, and I knew that my baby was well taken care of with her.”

About: All my life we have always had a zoo of animals. From turtles, Guinea pigs and crawfish. To cats and dogs. I have walked the dogs and fed the cats my entire life. Now living with my own animals some things don't change. My work is in a super convenient central location, right by the highways — making it quick and easy to swing by and care for your fur babies, no matter where you're coming from! Animal safety is always my top priority. Whether your pets are playing in the yard or just soaking up some sunshine, I keep a close eye on them to make sure they stay safe, secure, and out of trouble — no escapes, no mishaps, just peace of mind.
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ve raised two pugs from tiny puppies all the way into their senior years, so I understand every stage of a dog’s life and the love, patience, and care each one needs. I’m confident with hyper, energetic dogs and love keeping them active, engaged, and happy. I also volunteer taking shelter dogs on daycations, giving them extra enrichment, adventure, and affection. Through years of house-sitting for both cats and dogs—especially during college when I couldn’t have pets of my own—I’ve formed deep bonds and become trusted companions to the animals I care for. I’m playful, active, and always eager to help, because every pet deserves plenty of love, attention, and fun while their humans are away. I am currently working part time and studying in my career so I have plenty of time to care for your pup! I require a day’s notice but can make any time work into my schedule. I am very flexible and offer fast responses/open communication. For dog walking, I will meet with you at our first visit to ensure that it is a good fit. From there we can discuss behaviors, your preferences for walks (water bowl filled, treats, etc), meeting arrangements for the future, and anything else so that I can make your experience (and the pup’s) better!
About: Together, we have over ten years of experience in caring for dogs of all ages. Our family includes two furry pups, one that we welcomed as a 6 week old puppy and another that we adopted as an adult. As a remote, work from home couple, we have the convenience to offer your fur baby with all the attention, walks, and care they need. Rest assured that we will provide exceptional care for your baby while you're not around. Near my apartment complex, there are several dog parks and a pet-friendly apartment complex. Our two friendly dogs enjoy playing and running around with other dogs.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover that has experience caring for tiny 6-week old pups to wise 12 year old seniors and breeds ranging from yorkies to Great Pyrenees. Since i work from home, I’m able to keep your dogs’ routine consistent, meet their needs, and fill their day with attention, love, and lots of snuggles and fun!

Please ask me any questions 😊 I am currently working remotely so I am able to give your pup lots of attention throughout the day! My schedule is very very flexible!

University Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Katherine was absolutely amazing. I can’t say enough good things about her. Super responsive and is so good with my pup. She genuinely cares so much about animals! well being and I trust her wholeheartedly with my little girl Bear. Will be booking her as much as possible!

Claire took care of my new baby this am. We got a 9 week old golden retriever and she was excellent with her. Communicated well, was timely, and gave our new girl all the love and attention. She even helped with our adult dog who was not a scheduled visit. She is wonderful and accommodating even when i cant figure out how to schedule correct rover dates. Thank you, zClaire!

Lauren has been an absolutely amazing dog walker for our 10 month old pup Leo. He is not the easiest on a leash but she is energetic and gives him the same love and attention that we would! We are so glad to have found Lauren - super reliable and communicates so well. Highly recommend!

I can never leave enough positive comments about Kara and John. They are great and give me good dog advice throughout the day whenever I have a question (even when they are not walking my dog). They are on time and my dog does much better when they walk him. I highly recommend.
