About: I have cared for animals on my ranch in Acton, CA for over 30 years. I get along well with them because of the mutual trust and respect developed between us. I am adept at maintaining safe, clean living environments and noticing any problems which may crop up. I have worked with a variety of dog breeds of different ages and also have a great method for obedience training. I can provide information on this as agreed to between the owner and myself. I have one dog of my own at the moment. She is a rescue, and I know her particular needs. The same would be true of your dog/s. Each enclosure on my ranch is basically a huge corral with shelter attached. Dogs can exercise themselves and seek shelter whenever they want. I am also able to keep them indoors provided they are housebroken and reasonably well behaved. I can give medications and provide personalized care as needed. Services provided include the following? -Lots of private space for each dog -Dedicated care plans for senior dogs or those needing medications -Large tree-abundant yards. No cages -Leash walk and play time -In-door stays available when dictated by the weather -Social activities with other dogs given they are compatible with each other -Regular photo updates and videos I'd love to meet you and your dog. Let's schedule a meet and greet to become acquainted. Carole I'm am available for boarding on both weekends and weekdays. Since I am retired, this means I can check in on your dogs boarded at my facility on a regular basis. My premises are double-fenced for the security of client dogs. Dogs have plenty of water, and I feed them according to owner specifications. Wading pools are provided in the summer, and there are adequate shelters for dogs to stay in out of the weather when they choose. Any extra exercise desired by the owner outside of the exercise dogs give themselves in the large enclosed areas are arranged for between the client and myself. I will be happy to give high energy dogs extra exercise by playing fetch with them a few times during the day. I will also spend time reassuring over-anxious dogs by just being with them.

About: I’m new to the Rover community but I look forward to expanding my profile and making time for your companions. My family and I have had dogs are entire +20 years, til this day too. We’ve had large and small dogs, several breeds, some became mothers, and some left the family—so I’ve experienced full life cycles of dogs. Because of my understandings of having a furry companion, I have a soft spot for all furry buddies and i’m committed to learning and adapting to taking care of a new friend if it means making a fellow pet owner’s life a little easier. I love to be active so I can take your buddy for nice nature walks, play with them, or even down time with endless head/belly scratches—whatever your friend needs I can give. My two dogs, Muffin and Biscuit enjoy short walks and eating snacks so they’re two furballs of fun! I’m available for drop-ins or house sitting when needed. At your home I can keep your pet active with playtime and walks or I can just keep an eye on them, whatever is best for your pet! I am a student and a healthcare worker but I will always make more time for a pet when needed. Services including: -Dog walks, 30-45 min. To give your pet fresh air, a break from indoor spaces, and a simple exercise around a nice neighborhood or a dog friendly trail. -House drop-ins. to make sure your pet is safe and sound, the house is clean, well fed and stimulated, with playtime, potty breaks, and head scratches to remind them they’re never alone. -House Sitting. Hours will vary. My service includes providing basic necessities and care for your pets (food, water, walks, playtime, naps, potty breaks) to keep your home and your pet comfortable and safe

About: Hi my name is Sara! Please read my whole profile as many frequently asked questions can be answered HERE! I'm a veterinarian assistant aspiring prevet full time college student pursuing veterinary medicine,I want to be a veterinary in the future as my career ! I’m experienced in house/pet sitting as well in all shapes, species and sizes dogs,cats,guinea pigs,horses you name it etc. I’m just looking to give some care and love to your pets. I love taking care of animals as well as walking them any where if needed. My schedule is very flexible as so am I very flexible with my costumers and what they need of me. I'm just here to meet any necessary needs from my clients. I am extremely responsible, I understand the importance of having someone you can trust to love your pets as their own while you are away. I get it I have pets of my own so I understand how it feels to leave your pets in the hands of anther stranger but with me they are in good hands! I will make your dog feel safe, loved and happy. I'll treat them like my own! I guarantee to not leave you down not a bit! I always like to do meet and greets in advance for first time guests before any booking is approved. Please allow enough time for the meet and greet to be scheduled before your booking. Just in case I and your furry pals don’t get along, you’ll have enough time before your booking to find another sitter. I generally don’t take last minute bookings because I like to do meet and greets, but due to the circumstances given sometimes I will accept bookings! Please give me a call/message if you think I'd be a good fit. I'm always willing to work something out with my clients when it comes to $$$ especially . I can't wait to meet you and your furry pals ! ( Meet and greets before are important!) I also pet sit animals other than dogs as my schedule allows - Cats, Birds, Reptiles, rabbits, pocket pets, & other exotics. If your pet will be fine staying at your home/my home and you would like my services to feed, play, hang out with them while you are away, etc please contact me. I will be more than happy to come over for a Meet-N-Greet! I love working with animals and have worked in various animal shelters as a volunteer and have worked in clinical settings as well as a vet assistant! So I have quite the experience you would say with animals and such. I have a cozy 2 bedroom home with a fully enclosed backyard. Your furry friends will get the run of the house and be treated like a family member. They will be free to come and go, in and out of the backyard (whether there used to the inside or outside ), as they please and be showered with love and affection. Sleeping will be the same: on their bed or mine. I love to snuggle! I have a dog of my own who I keep in the backyard kenneled when I'm boarding clients and she WILL NOT INTERACT with your pets AT ALL as she is very dog reactive and I'd like to save both parties from a situation. If your pet needs to be crated that can be arranged although I keep the animals I'm boarding and taking care inside for the most part free roam and do as they please. If crates cant be provided I have my own (Varies etc.)

About: As an experienced dog owner, I love working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. While I specialize in large breeds and high-energy working dogs who need confident handling and structured exercise, I am equally attentive, gentle, and patient with medium and small dogs. No matter the size, your pup is in safe, capable hands. As a flexible local professional, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Because I manage my own schedule, I am out and about in the LA area every day, making it easy to accommodate prompt drop-ins and structured walks when you need them most. My routine is highly active, which is perfect for high-energy working breeds that need consistent, timely mid-day exercise to break up their day. At the same time, my flexibility allows me to easily tailor my schedule for smaller or senior dogs who need dedicated, calm potty breaks and attention. Whether you need a regular weekly schedule or occasional check-ins, I build my days around ensuring your pets get consistent, reliable, and on-time care. When caring for your pets, my absolute priority is safety, structural consistency, and clear communication. For Dog Walking & Drop-In Visits: I tailor every visit to your dog's specific size, energy level, and temperament. For large or high-energy breeds, I focus on confident leash handling, maintaining their established training commands, and giving them a robust, engaging workout to burn off steam safely. For medium and smaller dogs, I adjust the pace to ensure a comfortable, stress-free stroll or focused playtime. For House Sitting (In Your Home): I respect your space entirely and keep your dog’s exact home routine intact to prevent any separation anxiety. I ensure they are fed on time, kept on their regular potty schedule, and given plenty of attention. You will receive regular check-ins and high-quality photo updates during every single service so you always have total peace of mind.

As of October 2026, there are 11,294 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Acton. 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 Acton. 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 Acton 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 .

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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.
