About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I was a kid. I do have a family pet named Munchie back home. Helped volunteer at the animal shelter during my time when I lived OKC. Do not have pets of my own (hopefully soon it will change) but I want to share my love for pets for those who are busy! I work at home Monday and Fridays, office from Wednesday through Thursday. I am free most of the time, especially on weekends. I go in the office latest at 9:00 and out around 4-5 PM. So I can extremely flexible on what you need! I do live in a single bedroom apartment with a front yard with a small gated fenced. I keep my place clean and full of snacks and area for your pet too be as comfortable as needed.

About: Hi! I’m Deevie! I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember. I started my animal play/care journey back in 2021, where I became a worker in Dog Daycares. I learned so much about dog behavior, how to take care of their needs, play styles and monitoring play but also learning all of their quirks/personality. I’m comfortable and experienced with administering simple medications, following special care routines, and grooming needs (besides hair grooms). Your pets comfort and happiness are my top priority. I’d love to meet your furry friend and give them the same care I do for my own! I’m currently only a student so I can absolutely fit your pets into my schedule. Just shoot me a message and we can move forward! I’m respectful of others belongings and home, I treat your pets as if they’re my own. Once boundaries are established I can assure the right care for both your home and fur friend.

About: Hello! I’m originally from northern va but moved to ATX in 2022 and have loved exploring the city and outskirts ever since. Although never owning a pet of my own, I’ve lived with many animals throughout my life and currently reside with my housemate’s super adorable corgi! I have experience caring for puppies/kittens to senior dogs and cats - I enjoy the companion of both and love pets of all sizes :) I’m also pretty active and love exploring the outdoors, so would love to bring your pet around if they’re active too! If there are any special accommodations you’d like from me while I’m providing my services, please don’t hesitate to ask. I work remotely from home most days and have flexibility to come home from the office a lot, so your pet will be accompanied for the most part when I provide my services! P.S. I love photography and cute animals, so there will be plenty of photo updates I’m pretty active and love the outdoors, so there will be plenty of opportunities for your pet to explore if they enjoy going outside too! I also work hybrid but have a lot of flexibility to be remote at home while providing my services. I’ve never had a pet of my own, but I’ve lived with many roommates’ cats and dogs throughout my life and have experience caring for puppies/kittens to senior dogs and cats. Happy to discuss any special accommodations your pet needs!

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of family pets (cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish) since I was a child. Over the years, friends have also relied on me to drop-in on, play with, and feed their pets. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies and can make myself available whenever your schedule necessitates. I always observe body language first before engaging with an animal to ensure they feel safe. Gaining their trust is also very important to me, as it fosters a more positive caregiving relationship.

“I'm so happy we've found Chantell. She's great. I had concerns about getting a dog walker from Rover because our Shepard mix can be leash reactive. I was worried about someone else being able to follow his training routine for loose leash walking and good leash manners. At 85 lbs, he is not easy to manage if he's decided to follow his nose to a squirrel or get spooked at a sound or a dog or a trash can. Still, she's able to walk successfully with him and keeps us really well updated about his energy and how their walk has been. It's such a relief to have someone to be able to walk him for the times we're out of town or busy and we can know he's still getting his exercise.”

About: Hello! I'm Marie, an animal lover with a big heart... and a frequent traveler. My story begins with a personal choice: Because I return to France for several weeks each year to visit family, I made the decision not to adopt a pet of my own. I believe I couldn't leave them in someone else's care for that long. But my desire for animal companionship was still strong! This is what led me to become a passionate volunteer at Austin Pets Alive! There, I learned everything: from handling the most fearful or reactive dogs to caring for cats. And I learned one essential thing: The success of an adoption depends on daily support. Sometimes, families feel overwhelmed, and that's where I want to make a difference. My goal is not just to walk your dog. It's to become your trusted partner. To relieve you on your busy days, to help during your vacations, and, in doing so, to help ensure your pet remains a happy, thriving, and permanent member of your family. Let's build a more peaceful daily life for you, and a more joyful one for them. I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they need. I usually leave my house for three hours each Monday morning to volunteer at APA!, which is typically the longest time I'm away. I strive to be present all day for your pet. I am available throughout the week, including during school holidays and public holidays (except Christmas), so you can count on me to care for your furry friends while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home or yours, I maintain a calm, pet-proofed environment, follow routines closely, and use positive reinforcement techniques. I respect each animal’s boundaries to build trust. Clean, stress-free care is my promise always!

“Tasha has been absolutely amazing! 5 Stars!! My 4 month year old lab puppy Bear loves her. Bear’s time with Tasha is highly interactive which helps Bear get out her energy so she is a sweet puppy when I come home. Tasha takes Bear on walks, exploring and plays with toys plus water breaks. Tasha is in tuned to Bear’s personality and needs and is able to accommodate her appropriately. She has that gift of understanding and taking care of dogs. I know on the days that I work Bear is being well taken care of and is happy which puts my mind at ease. I get great photos and report cards from every visit which brightens my day! Tasha is reliable, flexible and a great communicator. You could not ask for anything more.”

About: I’ve shared a home with dogs and cats since I can remember. I have been there since they were pups/kittens until end of life. I cannot imagine a home without fur babies! I work from home and am able to take breaks to give your furries breaks! I am available often as long as I have enough notice as I am also a momma of teenage boys! Heads up- I do school drop offs/pick ups 8:40-9:00 am & 3:45-4:15 pm and will need to work around those times! I will care for you baby at your home and will follow your guidance and respect your boundaries while accompanying your fur baby! I don’t shy away from cleaning after them while I am with them!

About: I have had experience with animals my entire life, from owning pets and my mother working as a vet tech when I was young. I’ve provided pet sitting as a paid service before, and am very trusted by those past clients. I can do morning and evening visits for 30 minutes to an hour on normal weekdays, and aside from any specified weekends I am entirely free on Saturday and Sunday! I try very hard to provide the appropriate amount of attention that different animals need, whether it be running outside for a while, sitting on the couch with them, or simply providing food and some company for more shy animals.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover. I have owned pets for years and regularly dog sit for friends and family. I have a flexible work from home schedule. I want to raise our son to grow up with kindness, compassion, and respect for animals, so having pets around is something we truly value as a family. I am also a volunteer at Doodle Dandy Rescue and have fostered pets, so I am comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away, and I treat every pet like part of our family. You will receive daily updates, photos and videos so you can feel confident that you fur baby is in good hands :) Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or sticking to their routine, I provide reliable and attentive care in a calm, loving environment. Since I work completely remote, I’m home most of the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, walks, playtime, and companionship. We like to go on hikes on weekends as a family so I'd love to take the pets as well(with pet owners' permission). Weekday evenings are mostly walks, some backyard play time and wind down. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, crate preferences, and exercise routines. Safety is very important to me, so I keep pets secure during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free at all times. I do have a fenced yard.

About: Having worked in a Doggy Daycare and an Animal Shelter, I've experienced taking care of dogs of all kinds of personalities and understand common behaviors and body language. I love looking after medium and small dogs and can provide supervised playtime and 30-minute walks if requested. Let me know if you have special requests! I work from home, so I have flexibility to provide potty breaks every 4-5 hours. From drop-in visits, to daily walks, to house-sitting, I always do my best to keep your dog safe, healthy and happy. During the summer, I usuallly take dogs for very short walks, and always bring a water bottle. I can provide indoor playtime with their favorite toys.

About: Hi, I’m Bola! I’m a fun, active, and caring dog lover who would love to help take care of your furry friend. I stay active by running every Saturday and walking daily, so I can ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise, whether it’s a brisk walk, a jog, or some fun playtime outdoors. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from energetic puppies to gentle giants. I’ve helped with everything from feeding and giving baths to providing plenty of love and attention. Your dog’s happiness, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. If you’re looking for a sitter who will treat your pet like family and keep them happy, healthy, and well cared for, I’d love to help. Let’s make sure your pup has the best experience possible! I currently work from home and as such I am able to take the pets out of scheduled walks and my apartment has a dog park and large woodsy areas :) Throughout the day, I’ll make sure they’re well-fed, hydrated, and get plenty of belly rubs and attention. If they enjoy socializing, we might take another walk around the neighborhood or visit a nearby dog-friendly park for some safe exploration and fun. For dogs that enjoy downtime, we can relax at home with cozy cuddles, and I’ll keep them entertained with toys or puzzle games. If they need grooming, I can provide gentle baths to keep them fresh and comfortable.

About: Hi! I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter who loves creating a safe, comfortable environment for your furry family members while you’re away. I have experience caring for family pets during vacations, including looking after their homes while they traveled. I’ve also cared for my former roommate’s two cats when she was away for weekends. Most recently, I completed a 24-hour pet sitting and house sitting assignment in California before relocating to Texas. I believe every pet has their own unique personality and comfort level. I’m patient, respectful of their space, and allow pets to approach me when they’re ready to build trust. I pay close attention to their body language and routines so they feel safe, understood, and cared for. I’ve always had a natural connection with animals. I’ve had multiple dogs choose to seek out quiet moments of connection with me, including making eye contact, staying close by, or leaning against me for comfort. My sister’s dog, for example, often chooses to sit near me and lean against my leg when I visit, even though she says the dog doesn’t normally do that with people. I love taking the time to earn an animal’s trust and let them show me what they need. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’d love the opportunity to provide them with loving and dependable care while you’re away. I work part-time. I can stay at your house if needed. My day job varies but as long as I have a week's notice I can plan accordingly or work it around when I go to and from work. I do not have any pets of my own and therefore will treat your beloved pet as if it were my own. I am not providing any home services. I am only providing care at the client's houses. I have great nails that the animals love for me to scratch their backs with.

Arfa was a lifesaver. She’s a real lover of dogs and cares for them like they are her own. You can trust her inside your home and more importantly with your 4 legged family members. She takes lots of pictures when she’s with your dog and keeps you updated on everything that’s going on. I can’t say enough good things about this young lady. She really gives you that peace of mind that your dog is in good hands and you have nothing to worry about.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Wells Branch is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $30 per walk. On Rover, 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 of October 2026, there are 6,740 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Wells Branch. 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 Wells Branch. 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 , 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 Wells Branch 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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wells Branch. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
