“Charlie is the absolute best! She has been doing daily walks for my dog and it is the highlight of his day. His sits by the door waiting for her to arrive, gets so stinking excited when she shows up and toodles off with her in heaven. Charlie provides detailed updates on the walk and is highly communicative with us. In short, I could not recommend Charlie more!”
“If you are looking for a seasoned friendly dog walker/sitter look no further! Again our little Maggie's favorite walker! Thank you again for your top notch service & communication!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over seven years through the Wag! platform in addition to friends and family’s pups, and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. Over time, I’ve discovered that I truly excel with smaller, calmer, and more mellow dogs—and that’s where my focus is for Rover. I take a gentle, attentive approach to dog care, paying close attention to each dog’s comfort level, routine, and preferences. I’m especially mindful of dogs who thrive in quieter, low-stress environments and do best with patience and consistency. Whether it’s relaxed walks, cozy companionship, or simply maintaining their normal routine, my goal is always to create a safe, low-stress experience where dogs feel secure, respected, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is my top priority. My schedule is flexible so I may step away for some dog walks, but I am mindful of my schedule and adjust taking additional walks accordingly.
About: “Clear communication, photos, and updates so you never have to wonder how your dog is doing ~you will feel connected every step of the way. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to walk & play with your Best Friend. I am available for boarding 7 days a week. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I provide a safe secure environment where you can relax knowing your dog is being well cared for.

About: I've always had a special love for animals, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. As a dog owner myself, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for a furry family member. I have personal experience with feeding, walking, playtime, maintaining routines, and giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I'm patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing with toys, or just cuddling on the couch, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I understand that every pet is different, and I'm happy to follow any specific instructions to keep their routine consistent. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry friends are in caring hands! 🐶❤️ I'm currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week. I love spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy! I'm happy to work around each pet's routine, whether that includes walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company. I do my best to communicate clearly with owners about my availability and make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve! Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I make sure to follow all instructions provided by their owner. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or visiting theirs, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and loving environment. I always make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, and receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I'm careful about keeping doors and gates secure, supervising pets, and making sure they're comfortable in their surroundings. I also respect each owner's home and belongings. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry friend with someone else, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and pictures to give you peace of mind. I'll treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care I'd want for my own! 🐾❤️
About: Hi! I’m Lauren and I’m 19 years old :) me and my family currently own two German shepherd mixes named Lily and kiwi who are now 5 and 7 years old. I have been the primary caregiver/walker/trainer of both dogs since they were puppies, and I’ve owned and loved dogs my entire life. I have done lots of dog sitting since I was 12 years old for all kinds of breeds, ages, and sizes of dogs. I also used to check in and care for a family friends senior cat. I would love to stop by and check in on your fur babies, or take them on a walk to get out some energy when work, school, or just life doesn’t allow you too. I’m currently working part time and have a flexible school schedule since I do it at home typically in the mornings. I’m available for home check ins or walking Monday’s, Wednesdays after 2pm, fridays, or weekends after 2pm. I’ll do whatever your pets need. Giving them food and water, meds, grooming, letting them outside and picking up poop, playtime to get out some pent up energy, or just relaxing and giving them attention.
About: I grew up with dogs since I was in grade school. While my work and kids keep me busy these days, I always make plenty of space to spend time with my puppets and yours. Dogs are a massive part of my daily life! Between my own sweet Miniature Poodle, Kilo, and my experience as a long-term foster volunteer for a local rescue, my day naturally revolves around four-legged friends. My household runs on a steady, predictable routine, which is perfect for dogs. Because my schedule is highly organized, I have plenty of dedicated time for regular walks, timely meals, potty breaks, and lots of attention. Safety is my top priority. Having fostered quite a few rescue dogs, I'm really good at reading dog body language and knowing how to make a pup feel safe and comfortable in a new space. At My Home: I keep things secure and structured. When introducing a new pup, I take things slow and supervised so everyone—including my dog, Kilo—feels relaxed. Peace of Mind: I’m all about clear communication. I'll send you regular updates and cute photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in great hands. Respecting Boundaries: Whether your dog is a social butterfly or a bit shy, I tailor the environment to what makes them feel most at ease.
About: During high school and still to this day, I house sit and do daily check ins for my friends pets, so I spend a lot of time with animals. I am comfortable adapting to what you and your pet requires for the best experiences. I have experience feeding cats and dogs, giving oral medication, cleaning up throw up on carpets, furniture, floors, etc. I’ve cared for large dogs with a lot of energy, medium sized dogs, small sized dogs, anxious cats and dogs, and senior pets. I grew up with a lot of animals in my family and I love going on runs, walks, hikes, etc. I really just love being outside and getting active. I have two domestic short hair cats that I adopted when they were first born, and now they are two years old and thriving. I’m currently working part time at Yardhouse and need to get some more exercise. I work mostly in the afternoon on weekday and weekends, so morning walks and early afternoons are the best times I can provide services. I can also provide services late night services for emergencies and last minute situations. My schedule is flexible early morning and late nights. I am a very early riser so I am most available in the mornings. I will treat your pet and home as if it was mine. I’ll follow your exact instructions so you won’t have to worry about your pet. I’ll keep a close eye on your pet and make sure all doors and gates are closed, ensuring no risk of losing your beloved pet. Dogs and cats will stay leashed at all times when going on walks. I’ll send very detailed updates through out the day, leaving no worries about your pets safety and well being. If I sense something is wrong, I’ll give you a call immediately and take them to the vet if necessary.
About: Jeff and Penni have had pets for most of their lives. Jeff grew up with golden retrievers and golden labs. Penni has long-term experience with cats and has also lived with a Double Yellow-Headed Amazon parrot. Our household includes two adults, a 13-year-old, and a five-year-old neutered border collie. We’re attentive, reliable, and comfortable following established routines, boundaries, and preferences so pets feel safe and settled in our care. Pet care is naturally built into our daily routine. On a typical day, we take Code-E out in the morning and afternoon for ball or frisbee play. Your dog is welcome to join, or to have individual time if that’s a better fit. We’re comfortable managing dogs together or separately so everyone stays relaxed. Throughout the day, we also do shorter outdoor breaks and play sessions. Indoors, dogs receive plenty of attention, calm companionship, and affection as they want it. When we go to dog-friendly places, we often bring Code-E along and would be happy to include your dog as well, if that suits their comfort level. Our home is pet-safe and low-stress, with a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. The yard is simple and durable, so we don’t worry about normal play or wear. Code-E is very people-centered and generally prefers to coexist peacefully rather than engage in frequent dog-to-dog interaction. He is calm and usually indifferent to other dogs, though he may occasionally choose to play with compatible companions. We supervise interactions, respect dogs’ boundaries, and separate dogs when needed to keep everyone comfortable. We only host one guest dog at a time, which allows us to provide individualized attention and a calm, low-stress environment.
About: I've been taking care of friends cats and dogs for years. Working remotely provides me the ability to house sit and spend quality time to care for my friends and families animals and Rover just seems like a natural fit to help others allow for their pets to stay in their natural environment (their home) when their human's are out of town. Not only will I feed your Fur Family members, I'll play with them and bond with them. I look forward to meeting your dogs and cats...and you as well. P.S. I have a special place in my heart for the elderly Fur Babies and have the patience required to care for them as well. Currently I'm studying for a new career, so online real estate school allows for me to be available mostly all of the time. I can study when house-sitting with your Fur Family member and it also allows for me to stop in for feedings or walks as well. I've been sitting for a long time for friends and family. I literally have keys to many friends homes, to make it possible to not have to meet prior to their departure. I sit for these friends so often they have told me to keep a key. I am on top of feeding times and restroom breaks, or even walks but I also build friendships with these fur-babies. Watching TV or sitting in the backyard...I pay and love on these amazing pups and cats. I connect with animals very well and quickly, they become a part of my family to some extent, I look forward to sitting for my friends and getting the opportunity to spend time with their family member/s (their cats or dogs). I look forward to caring for your pet as well!!
About: I've had a love and passion for animals for as long as I can remember. I've been working in veterinary medicine for over five years and have gained a lot of valuable information and experiences that have helped me become a better caretaker for my own pets and for others. I believe it’s our job to provide our pets with the proper love, attention, stimulation (mentally and physically) and care that they need. We are their caretakers and biggest advocates. I hope to use all my skills to give each animal in my care what they need and deserve and bring assurance to all pet parents that I am here for you and your pets! The fortunate side of working in veterinary medicine is that pets are allowed at the office! Outside of work, I enjoy taking the dogs in my care on long walks and to the park, or just cuddling at home. I am active daily and love to have company! Any pet under my supervision will get the attention and care they need whether that's through walks and lots of play time or maybe some cuddle sessions. I understand that each pet is different and depending on what they need, I’m happy to adapt. Every pet that stays with me will receive love as if they were my own.
About: Hi! I'm new to Rover, however, I've loved animals all my life. And I understand how important it is to ensure your fur baby is cared for ❤️ I have my own pup, Cloud (my goober bear) and fish at home. My family also has cats, so I’m very familiar with all kinds of personalities. I’ve also volunteered at a horse ranch and helped care for chickens, and one day I’d love to have my own little farm + animal sanctuary 🐾 My biggest priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible like you never left. I really take the time to understand what matters most to you and your pet, so I can mirror that same love, energy, and care while you’re away. I’m very active, mindful, and intuitive (I’m also a yoga teacher), which helps me tune into animals and their nonverbal cues. Whether your pet wants playtime and adventures, or calm energy and space, I’m happy to meet them exactly where they are. I’ll treat your pet like my own with so much love, presence, and care 🐾❤️ With a flexible, part-time schedule as a yoga instructor, I’m able to offer consistent, attentive care and be fully present with your pet. I prioritize quality time, routine, and making sure they feel safe and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and attentive environment, follow routines closely, and ensure fresh food, water, and care at all times. I’m mindful, reliable, and treat your pet (and home) like my own
“Cassidy is great! I always get thorough updates and she has been flexible with our last minute requests. She is very capable and experienced and I know my (sometimes anxious) pup is in good hands!”

About: Hi, I’m Paulina! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, with hands-on pet care experience dating back to when I was in middle school. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, including guinea pigs, dwarf hamsters, mice, turtles, freshwater fish, a cornsnake, a bearded dragon, and of course, cats and dogs! I have four cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with the responsibility and attention to detail that comes with caring for multiple pets and maintaining their individual routines. I’ve fostered two abandoned puppies, cared for them while they were looking for their next chapter, and helped find them loving homes. I also recently fostered a feral queen and her litter of 4 kittens that were just two weeks old (so tiny and cute!). I had them for about 6 weeks before they went off to their loving homes (yes, I was a foster fail and adopted one!). These experiences really reinforced how much I value giving animals patience, stability, and plenty of affection while they’re in my care. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and understand that every pet is different. Some need lots of playtime and attention, while others are shy, independent, or need a little extra patience to feel comfortable around someone new. I’m happy to meet pets where they are and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I’m also very attentive to cleanliness, feeding schedules, fresh water, enrichment, and changes in behavior. I want you to feel confident that your pets aren’t just being checked on but they’re genuinely being cared for. I also completely understand the anxiety and concern when it comes to going on trips and leaving your fur babies at home, so I always send detailed updates with lots of pics. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your fur baby and give them the same care and attention I’d want for my own pets. 🐾♥️ I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to build pet care into my day. I’m able to provide consistent visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship almost any time of the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home and every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I carefully follow instructions, keep doors and gates secure, make sure pets have access to fresh water, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and will leave things clean and exactly as I found them. Before caring for your pet, I like to understand their routine, personality, feeding instructions, medications if applicable, and any quirks or safety concerns. I believe clear communication and attention to detail are key to giving both pets and their people peace of mind.

About: I’ve been dog sitting and walking for the past 4 years. I love small and big dogs of all breeds and helping families occasionally with whatever services they may need for their pets. I am a recent college graduate from UC Berkeley living at home with two German Shepards who I also care for. If there is anything that I can help you or your family with, feel free to reach out! I’m currently a full-time remote employee which allows my schedule to remain very flexible. My availability for dog caring ranges day-to-day but I am usually able to care for dogs throughout the whole day. I have a completely fenced off yard with closed entrances. I ensure that my own dogs are kept separate from any dog I dog-sit in order to prevent any potential conflict, although my dogs are friendly. I do not engage my clients’ dogs with any others unless advised to. I ensure that safety and the animal’s needs are properly met.
“Megan took care of and was walking Pepper for over a week. I am very happy I found such an amazing walker for Pepper. She is super reliable, always showed up right on time, and gave me peace of mind. Her communication is awesome, she made sure I knew house and dog were in good hands. She told me of her desire of being more with dogs again after her move to CA. She took the best care of Pepper and treated him like one of her own. It seemed to me that Pepper looks even happier, healthier than before they started their walks. Highly recommended and I will ask her again next time when I am away.”

About: I have Animal Shelter and Pet Store experience. I have had pets all of my adult life and sincerely believe that they are the best enrichment of human lives. I have medication experience and have been trained to be cautious of medical conditions. I can be trusted to act fast for worst case scenarios (knock on wood). I know how to take the best care of pets with the knowledge I’ve learned from my own experiences over the years. I work full time at a dealership but, with enough notice I can make sure to be available for your pets when needed. I am available every evening after 7pm Tuesday - Saturday and all day Sundays and Mondays I have 2 cats, a free roaming rabbit and geckos at home with my partner. I love taking care of their individual needs and giving them treats and toys to make them happy.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alamitos
Maria is so wonderful! She's very caring to our dear Yuumi and ensures her safety and well being at all times. She's very trustworthy that we can relax and have peace of mind knowing that Yuumi is in good hands while we're away. We will definitely choose to book her over and over again!

Rachel was fantastic with our enthusiastic hound dog during our last getaway, so we booked her again for dog walks while we were out of town over the long weekend. Unfortunately, our pup developed an unexpected stomach issue the day we left. Rachel was extremely communicative and kindly worked with us as we assessed our dog's health and recovery. She was patient, flexible, and incredibly helpful—we were ultimately able to continue our vacation plans knowing that our dog was in great hands. We look forward to requesting Rachel’s help again during our next trip, and our dog does too!

Great experience! Great communication, very punctual, and I really appreciated that they were able to adjust the time last minute so Kira could get her walk in earlier than expected. Everything went smoothly and Kira was happy when I got back. Definitely would book again!

This is my first time ever hiring dog walkers, and while I was always open to the idea, I was a little hesitant at first. Willow and Tingting have completely exceeded my expectations. They have been amazing with my little girl, Pepper, and always provide thoughtful updates after every walk. Their communication is so detailed that I almost feel like I'm right there with them. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing that Pepper is happy, well cared for, and in such loving hands. I couldn't recommend them more!
My dog and I are so glad we met Judi! She treats Finny as if he were her own and he absolutely loves her! Judi is meticulous about any instructions you have for your pup and your home and, because she has so much experience with dogs, she will let you know if she notices any changes or issues with your fur baby. As a new and somewhat anxious dog mom, I can relax and focus at work knowing Judi is coming over and Finny is safe and having a great time with her on their walks.

I had a great experience working with Avery. She arrived on time, was professional and reliable, and did everything exactly as agreed. Communication was smooth throughout the process, and I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and trustworthy dog walker, and I would be happy to work with her again in the future.

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 Alamitos. 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 Alamitos after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.

- 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
