“Lianna was wonderful! I knew my fur baby was being well taken care of. She knew I was anxious leaving my baby so she sent me multiple pictures of every outing so I could see how Tessie was? She was prompt, fed Tessie and made sure she took her medicine everyday for her chronic condition. I highly recommend Lianna if you are in need of pet sitter/walker. I have already booked her again for my next out of town trip when I cannot take my baby.”
About: I have owned cats my entire life and spent years volunteering with numerous animal rescue groups. I have been rescuing outdoor kittens since I was young and have had many pets from dogs to rabbits to guinea pigs to rats and mice and gerbals and reptiles and fish. I have countless years of experience with all types of animals from skittish cats to fear aggressive doggies and am looking forward to meeting your special furry family. I work full time from home so I have some flexibility during the day but only if you are super close to me. After work there is full flexibility. I do my best to make sure that your fluffy family is able to keep as much to their normal routine as possible. It is important that they feel comfortable while their family is away and I find that normal routine tends to help ease anxiety.
About: I previously worked at a doggie daycare and pet boarding facility and have been pet sitting for several years. I am comfortable giving medications (both pills and injections) to both cats and dogs and other animals with proper instructions. I currently have a flexible schedule to care for your pets as needed. I'm very active and able to exercise your pet as much as possible, or just hang out and give them TLC if that's what they prefer! I'm available to watch your pet in your home so that they can stay in a place that they are comfortable and familiar with and stick with their normal routine!

Jack really helped me out in a pinch! He was able to arrange a same-day meet and greet and took great care of my dog. I really appreciated the flexibility and communication, and I had complete peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. I’d definitely recommend Jack.
I couldn’t be happier with Tamara! She is incredibly dependable, flexible, and responsive, and it’s clear that she genuinely cares for your pet like they’re her own. I especially loved getting pictures and updates during her visit—it gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Alplaus on Rover is $18.87 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,057 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Alplaus. 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 Alplaus. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Alplaus.

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 Alplaus. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
