“Courtney is absolutely amazing! She’s super responsive, professional and thoughtful. We did a meet and greet that put me at complete ease. My outgoing boisterous pup completely welcomed Courtney into the pack. My shy pup was her shy self, eventually warming up. Courtney knew just how to engage with each of their different personalities and I could tell right away how talented Courtney is with animals. It was our pure good fortune to meet Courtney and I will definitely engage her as often as I can. 😁”

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: 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

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: I’ve been a dog parent for over 15 years, so I know firsthand how much our furry companions mean to us. I’m an avid walker and genuinely love being outdoors, especially when I have a four-legged friend by my side! I’m caring, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality, energy level, and needs. Whether your pup needs a fun neighborhood walk, some extra exercise, companionship, or simply a little TLC while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I truly believe our furry kin deserve plenty of patience, love, and attention—and I’d be honored to give your pup the same care I’ve given my own dog for all these years. I have a flexible schedule right now and am looking forward to filling it with some fun walks with local pups. Hope yours is one of them :) I am currently only offering walks for dogs who need a drop-in visit while you're out at work, or busy with errands and could use the extra support with your furry friend.

About: Follow Us on Instagram: baileys_buddies Our family has over 15 years of experience caring for pets. In addition to dog boarding in our home, I offer house sitting and drop-in visits (for cats and dogs), and dog walking. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet(s). You can trust that your pet will be safe, happy, and treated like family. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting in your home while continuing my workday. When pets stay in my home, they receive attentive, round-the-clock care with frequent opportunities to go outside. We have a dog door for pets who are comfortable using one, and I’m always happy to take dogs out regularly if they’re not familiar with it. For dog boarding in our home, we have a pet-friendly backyard with plenty of space to roam, play, or relax on our covered patio in the shade. The yard is double-gated, providing a secure and safe environment for your pups to enjoy. When caring for pets in your home, I’m always respectful, attentive, and conscientious about following pet parents’ instructions and safety preferences to ensure their pets feel comfortable and well cared for.

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!

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.

Courtney is the best of the best! I had never previously needed to hire “outside help” for one of my dogs (I only moved to the west coast a couple of years ago and previously had many friends and family nearby to help out) so I was super nervous to leave my puppy in the care of someone I didn’t know very well. Courtney put me at ease as soon as I met her. I could tell she really cared about taking care of Sadie the way I wanted her to be taken care of and Sadie warmed up to her right away. Courtney is great at what she does and very dependable. My only complaint is that she doesn’t have more availability, but that speaks to what a great dogsitter/walker she is and how many people want her services!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Alamitos

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Alamitos on Rover is $22 per walk as of September 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $57 per walk. 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 September 2026, there are 5,700 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Alamitos. 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 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.

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 Alamitos. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
