About: I've been taking care of pups for over 15 yrs now. At first my own pups, but then I would help out friends and family with their pups while they went on vacations and/or traveled for work. My family says I have a kinship with dogs as most dogs naturally get a long with me. Sometimes I can calm the most excitable pup and have them relax in my lap. I work pretty early in the morning. I'm usually home by 10-11 am. I have a pretty good schedule regarding feeding and potty breaks. I tend to take the pups out for walking and play I have a fenced back yard and a dog park near by. I can take your fur babies to the park or on walks regularly. I currently have 2 pups myself, they are well trained and have a pretty steady routine (food and potty breaks). They get along well with other dogs, no biting or aggression. They do set boundaries though. NO humping.

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. My pets are my children so I love them fiercely. I have worked with and volunteered with animals for the last 15 years. I’ve spent time with pets in a clinic environment as a vet tech, a shelter environment as a kennel tech and dog walker, and a rescue environment as a volunteer. My volunteer time has included transporting pets, walking dogs, helping mamas who just had puppies, and loving on new puppies too! I have flexibility and freedom with my schedule. I can do drop ins, stay and visit with your pet for a bit, and do feedings or give meds if need be. Because my own dogs can be knuckleheads, I can take care of your pets in your home. It might help make their time away from you easier for them anyhow. I can take them for walks, play with them in your yard, take them for car rides, and just hang out with them. My goal would be to make your pets as happy and comfortable as possible. When they’re happy, you’re happy…and then you can enjoy your time away.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. At 11, my first business was babysitting, but I quickly found myself caring for family pets, too. My love for animals ran so deep that every weekend, my parents took me to local pet stores, where I volunteered just to learn more about them. Over the years, I’ve personally raised and cared for guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, dogs, iguanas, bearded dragons, turtles, and other aquatics—each one teaching me something new about their unique needs and personalities. I’ve been called the “Animal Whisperer” because of the way animals connect with me. Beyond providing love and companionship, I have hands-on experience with medical care. I administered insulin injections twice a day for over a decade for my cat, along with heart medication and tube feedings when needed. When my iguana developed kidney failure, I hand-fed her by syringe, juicing fresh vegetables to make sure she got the nutrients she needed. If you hire me, remind me to tell you the incredible story about the possum I rescued. I truly have a heart for animals, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m experienced, compassionate, and reliable, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your beloved pets. I look forward to meeting you and giving them the love, attention, and expert care they deserve! As I’m working from home, I have the flexibility to be available at any time to care for your pets. While my schedule may vary slightly due to occasional personal appointments, I’m committed to accommodating your needs as they arise. I prioritize creating a calm and secure environment for every pet I care for. I ensure the pets’ routines are maintained, from feeding and playtime to cleaning and providing fresh food and water. I am also attentive to any special instructions you may have to ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe. I understand the importance of your home and will respect it by maintaining cleanliness and keeping everything in order. While I will be caring for your pets in your home, I also make sure to stay in close communication with you, providing updates, pictures, and videos to give you peace of mind.

About: I loved dogs and cats since the day I was born, I'm more drawn to dogs then cats because that's who I been around the most. I've taken care of my close family and cousins pets whenever they needed someone to look after them and I enjoyed being there when they needed it the most. I work a part time job from Sunday - Thursday that last for 4 1/2 hours... 11:30am - 4 pm so looking after any pets fits perfectly into my schedule as I won't be away from them for too long, and I can walk and feed them early in the morning to make sure there well taken care of before I leave out to work. At my apartment home I look after every pet and give them all the attention they need, making sure they are well feed and have plenty of water to drink. Since I don't have a fence or back yard I do have a dog park that I can take them to as well as 4 outside parks around my neighborhood that I take them too.

About: As a work-from-home professional, my life revolves around my home environment, and to me, a house isn't truly a home without the pitter-patter of paws. Because I am home throughout the day, your dog will enjoy constant companionship, frequent potty breaks in my fenced grass backyard, and a calm atmosphere free from the chaos of children or loud noises. What sets me apart: Training Background: I’ve completed formal training with the "What a Great Dog" program. I understand canine body language and use positive reinforcement to ensure your pet feels secure and understood. Active Lifestyle: While I’m focused during the workday, my evenings and weekends are spent on the local trails. If your dog loves an adventure, they’ll have a dedicated hiking partner in me. A "Safe Haven" Environment: My home is a quiet, kid-free zone. This allows me to "meet your pet where they are at," whether they are a senior who needs a peaceful place to nap or a younger dog who needs structured play. Lifelong Experience: I have owned and cared for dogs since childhood. I treat every guest with the same love and attention I’ve given my own pets over the last 20+ years. Whether your dog needs a hiking buddy or a quiet spot to curl up under my desk while I work, I provide a safe, reliable, and loving transition while you’re away. A Reliable Daily Rhythm Because I work from home full-time, your dog becomes a natural part of my daily flow. I provide a structured yet flexible environment that ensures they are never lonely. Morning (7:00 AM – 9:00 AM): We start the day with a long potty break and supervised playtime in my fenced, grassy backyard. This is followed by breakfast and some "zoomies" before I settle into my home office. The Work Day (9:00 AM – 5:00 PM): While I’m working, dogs usually love to snooze under my desk or on their favorite bed nearby. My schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to take "puppy breaks" between meetings for belly rubs, extra potty visits, or a quick game of fetch in the yard. Evening (5:00 PM – 8:00 PM): Once I "clock out," we head out for some fresh air! I love taking evening walks on local trails to burn off energy. Afterward, it’s time for dinner and some dedicated indoor playtime or cuddles. Bedtime: I follow your home’s specific routine to ensure a seamless transition, whether that’s a final outdoor stretch or settling into a crate/dog bed. Note on Flexibility: I know every dog is different! Whether your pup needs a mid-day walk or a specific feeding schedule, I am happy to alter my routine to meet their needs. Your pet’s safety and emotional well-being are my top priorities. My home is set up to be a stress-free sanctuary where your dog is always supervised and secure. Secure Backyard: I have a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of grass for exploring. All outdoor time is supervised to ensure your dog is safe and having fun. A "Home Away From Home" Setup: To keep your pup comfortable, I ask that you provide their familiar crate, bedding, and favorite toys. Having their "own" things helps them settle in much faster! Crate-Friendly Environment: If your dog is crate-trained or needs a quiet space for meals and naps, I am happy to accommodate. I can easily utilize crates to provide a structured and safe environment when needed. Meeting Them Where They Are: Drawing on my training experience with "What a Great Dog," I am highly attentive to stress signals. I make sure to give every dog the space or the cuddles they need to feel at home. No Kids, No Chaos: My home is a kid-free environment, which is ideal for dogs that prefer a calm, predictable atmosphere.

About: Hi I'm Isabella a college student athlete at the university of East Texas A&M back for the summer. Growing up with different types of dogs throughout my life from Saint Bernards to English Bull dogs I got to truly love dogs and learn how to take care of them in several different ways. Depending on how energetic they were and how old they were I got to learn what care each dog needed. Walking my own dogs as well helped me learn and know what to do during unexpected situations when walking dogs so that they remain calm. I'm so grateful for my dogs as they allowed me to gain experience of knowing when to give your pups snacks, high fives, how much playing time they need to being patient and calming with older dogs and giving them their medication as needed. My experience has allowed me to be comfortable with small or large - young and older dogs. I'm currently back for the summer from college and am on a UPSL soccer team which leaves my schedule open and flexible to look after your pets as we have practice twice a week in the evening with one game during the weekend. When I am watching after your dogs, they have my full and undivided attention assuring that they not only get the best care possible but are also in a safe and caring environment when walking them.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Yucote Acres

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Yucote Acres is $18 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $1 and $27 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 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 5,907 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Yucote Acres. 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 Yucote Acres. 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 Yucote Acres 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 Yucote Acres. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 .

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.
