“If you’re looking for a compassionate, experienced, and reliable dog sitter, Tanya is the one to call! We have four energetic dogs ranging from 100 pounds to just 25 pounds, and she handles them all with ease. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or keeping them on their best behavior, Tanya goes above and beyond. Having her care for our pups gives us true peace of mind when we travel, knowing they’re in the best hands. We can’t recommend her enough!”

About: Hi! I’m Natalie, a reliable, experienced pet sitter who treats your dogs like my own. I’ve worked with all types of dogs, including high-energy, anxious, and large breeds (I personally have experience with husky/shepherd types). I offer drop-ins, walks, and in-home care where your dogs stay comfortable in their routine. I’m very attentive to behavior, feeding schedules, and exercise needs. You’ll get consistent updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. I know how important trust is when leaving your pets, and I take that seriously. I have a flexible schedule and prioritize making sure pets get consistent care and attention. I’m available for drop-ins and walks daily, with availability in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Weekends are open for boarding or extended care. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they get proper exercise, playtime, and routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I provide a calm, structured environment and closely follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions. I have experience reading dog behavior and keeping interactions safe and positive. I can separate pets if needed and ensure a clean, secure space at all times. You’ll also get updates and photos so you feel confident while you’re away.

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs, and currently have 2 cats of my own. I've assisted in petsitting or petwalking jobs on the side for the past few years. I'm currently working part-time on my own schedule, so have a wide variety of time to schedule walks, sitting, etc for pets. I can do weekdays or weekends. Evenings are usually busier for me, but I am able to work around any specific needs! I can take your pet on walks, feed them, play with them, and provide very basic care. Walks and stop-by visits are my most common requests.

About: My name is Haley, I’m 30, living in Boerne. I will do dog walks, feeding, and playing. I will also do grooming and training for an additional fee. I will love your pet like I love my pups. I have had dogs and cats in my life since I was 3. I have had 6 dogs and 3 cats total. I’m currently raising my 5th puppy, Toulouse. He will be the fourth dog I’ve trained. I work from home so I have lots of free time and I’m eager to start this new endeavor. Please feel free to message me with any questions you have. I look forward to meeting you and your sweetheart. I am self employed and spend a lot of time if not all my time at home. I would have lots of free time to tend to all your pets needs. I have 2 dogs of my own to keep your pup happy while visiting. I can crate if needed and long walks are provided when it’s cool. If in your home I would maintain their routine to the best of my ability.

About: I am also available for weddings for those that want their pet to be there and to be cared for and handled with no worries! I had my own pet sitting business many years ago with hundreds of clients in my neighborhood, so I am familiar with countless breeds, ages and temperaments. I enjoy the responsibility and trust that my clients have for me to care for their pets. I love meeting new dogs and cats and forming a bond with them! I am a stay at home mom of one older child with plenty of free time to fill with dog walking and pet care. My schedule is flexible. I always strive to keep the same schedule and routine that the pet is accustomed to while the owner is away. I have 3 dogs of my own and understand the importance of wanting them to be as comfortable as possible in my absence.

About: I have 30+ years of pet care experience not only with my own pets, but also friends & family that I have taken care of. I am very friendly to all animals and know how to interact with the most timid or aggressive dogs. When I meet a new animal, owners tell me that I must have a sixth sense because the animals never react so well to anyone. I tell the owners that they must know I am a dog lover and enjoy being with animals more than I do people. I work from home so will be with your furry child all day. I have two Black Labs of my own that love everyone! References available upon request.

About: Been around dogs since I was a child. I take every opportunity I can to be near them. Even the tough ones. I have a lot of patience and empathy for dogs that seem stressed or lack impulse control. I observe behavior before making suggestions on how I can help. I have had some dog training with my prior dogs and learned a tremendous amount and I am currently taking courses to become a dog trainer. I have experience with dogs with general anxiety and separation issues, senior dogs, and high energy dogs. I really do love and appreciate all their unique quirks and personalities. I'm centering my life around dogs, I am self employed and working towards a dog training certification. Tho I have gained experience from hiring trainers to work with my dogs in the past. I believe dogs are a gift to humans, and even the challenging ones deserve patience and love. I have a fenced area in my yard for dogs to play, or they are in my house. I consider my animals to be family members. I love to take them on walks and play, they are my adventure pals and my emotional support pals. I would love to walk yours or just drop in for playtime, and always incorporate alittle training, as my experience has shown me animals thrive when they have a good balance of safety and stimulation. I always treat each animal as unique but I also believe in a good foundation and calm yet assertive interactions.

About: I have lived around animals for as long as I can remember and I completely adore them. I have a fair amount of experience with dogs the smallest being a choodle (chihuahua+poodle mix) from a puppy to the largest so far being a Pyrenees. By this point I have taken care of both baby animals and senior pets with a lot of experience with keeping up with your pets medication. I also have experience with other animals like sugar gliders, hedgehogs, snakes, fish, chickens and even a horse. I reinforce any commands and training your pets are learning. I'm willing to care for and walk dogs of an even larger size just give me fair warning if your dog is a jumper. Im a little on the short side and just want to be prepared. I currently own a Chinese crested powderpuff named Rogue, and a miniature dachshund named Slade. Also I care for a family of stray cats that might as well be mine at this point. I usually play with animals until they are tired enough without making them exhausted. I usually keep to whatever schedule my clients give me and then some. Feedings, bathroom breaks, play time, walks, cuddles, training reinforcements and loads of pictures. I keep an eye out for just about everything. I want to make sure that both your pets and your house is safe. I'll check for anything that is asked for specifically as well

About: I highly recommend my son, Jared, as a dog walker on Rover.com. He is extremely responsible, attentive, and loving towards all animals. Jared goes above and beyond to ensure that the pets in his care are happy, healthy, and well-walked. I trust Jared completely with our own precious pets, and I know that he will provide your pets with the same level of care and love that you do. If you are looking for a reliable and compassionate dog walker, look no further than Jared! My son is currently off school and will be giving his full attention towards walking your furry friends. Even when school begins, he will continue to walk your pets as much as he can. Jared is a very responsible and loving pet owner. He makes sure that our precious dog, Luna, is taken care of before he does anything else.

About: I have experience with puppies and old dogs, big dogs and small dogs. Lots of experience with diabetes and critical care pets. I've been a dog owner and lover for over 15 years. I work from home. I’m home almost all of the time so my availability is pretty open. I have a large fenced yard and I live on some property. I also have miles of country roads I can take your pets for a walk! I can also come to you to check in on your dog or take them for a walk. I want to do what it best for you and your pets! I am currently a stay at home mom for my 4 kiddos so my schedule is very flexible! Weekday or weekend I always have availability for furry friends! Travel: My standard rates include locations within approximately 15 minutes of my home base in Bandera. Because I serve a large rural area, a small per-visit travel fee may apply for extended-distance bookings (generally $5 for locations approximately 15–25 minutes away and $10+ for locations 25+ minutes away). Any travel adjustment will always be discussed and agreed upon before booking. I treat my pets like a beloved family member and I will treat yours the same way! They rely on us so I would never let them down!

About: My name is Raven, and I am an energetic and passionate lover of animals of all kinds. I grew up in a household wherein my mom saved any animal she could get her hands on, therefore I learned how to care for cats, dogs & even snakes very early in life. Ive worked for shelters since I was a pre-teen, both in volunteer and employment capacity, as well as being on Rover for over 6 years now, and have fallen in love with every pet i've been able to care for. I'm respectful of your home, time and routine. I'm able to meld to any feeding, walking, cuddling time your animal is used to, as to not change their routine while you're away. I hope to meet you and your furry friend! I am a full time student, with a lot of my classes being online, therefore my schedule is very flexible, and I prioritize your pets before anything else. Rover is something i've cherished for many years, allowing me an opportunity to connect with families who need help, and spend therapeutic time with the animals who make them whole! I can give myself an immense amount of credit for being a very trustworthy person. I was taught by my father to leave things better than I found them, and enjoy cleaning and maintaining my own environment as well as yours. I've never had a complaint about my respect for my clients space. You may occasionally check your home cameras and find me having a conversation with your pets, but other than that, I am fully sane! As for boarding in my home, I am unable to care for dogs in my home as I have 2 cats without experience with dogs, and the number one priority in my care is safety. However, I can board cats as my cats are very comfortable and used to living in a multi-cat home.

About: I love any type of dog, and will spend all the time I can with them, young or old. I want all the dogs, but can't afford them. Teacher on holiday break, I have loads of time, and love to spend it with dogs and walking as much as I possibly can to help myself exercise. I follow directions that the owner gives to the best of my ability. I'm recovering from a ruptured ACL, MCL , and torn meniscus surgery, so I love the exercise.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Welfare

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,540 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Welfare. 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 Welfare. 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 Welfare 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 Welfare. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
