About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and small animals like bunnies and guinea pigs. 🐶🐱🦎My family and I have raised multiple puppies and cared for seniors, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention they need. I currently have a puppy of my own, so I’m actively working on potty training and basic obedience. I’ve provided pet care for friends and family including dog walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality/play time with pets. I treat every animal like my own and would be happy to send updates/photos so you always know how your pet is doing. 💗 I’m a military spouse who moved to San Diego about a year ago. Since I’m not working another job, I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m unavailable most Thursdays and Fridays however, I’m open and able to accommodate care and scheduling needs. I provide care in your home and make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well looked after while you’re away. I give them plenty of attention and keep their environment clean and safe.

Savannah is so kind and attentive when she takes Tubby on his walks. Offers to feed him if I’m going to be running late and super communicative. She provides photos and updates. Tubby is always happy to see her and our family truly appreciates her help! ☺️

About: In total I’ve had 5 dogs in my lifetime, dating far back to when I was a baby! Dogs of many sizes and kinds of dogs from small to big, a labrador rottweiler mix, bichon frise and the rest being rat terriers. So from about the time I was born until I was 13 (I am now 20), I owned 5 dogs :). I loved being able to walk my dogs, taking them to parks, just being in their company really. I look after my friends’ dogs on occasion as well as my relative’s when they’re busy and decided that I would love to make it into a career. I don’t have a job, and I’m a student at Southwestern, I was full time last semester but the semester ended just last week. I will be fully free for the next two weeks with the exception of Friday’s from 6pm-11pm (can be negotiated if need be!). I’m open every week day and every day of weekend, willing to work anywhere from 8am until about 5pm. I will be taking one class in the summer, ballet (dance), that begins June 15th, ends August 8th and runs Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9:25am to 11:25 AM for all three days. I would not be allowed to host any pet in my house as we have two babies in the house and we’re not fully aware of their allergies yet, however, it would be best for me to do drop ins or house sitting sessions for that reason. I think doing a meet and greet beforehand would be amazing so that we could have a chance to meet each other first and maybe introduce me to your pet to see if I could be a good match to sit for them instead of blindly throwing me with them!

I am so grateful to Monique, she did such a great job helping to take care of our Yoyo while we were out of town. My dog is not always easy but took right to Monique. She kept me updated and sent me photos. Especially when you are out of town it is so important to know someone is taking such good care of your pet. I will definitely be reaching out to Monique again and appreciate her so much.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I share my life with Dulce, my playful and well-socialized 1.5-year-old pup who is spayed and fully up to date on all core vaccinations. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and accompanies me during full-day and overnight stays in San Diego. Because Dulce joins me, I accept bookings with dogs who are friendly and comfortable around other dogs. Many pups enjoy the added companionship, but I’m always attentive to each dog’s individual comfort level. I’m happy to thoughtfully socialize them or keep them separated as needed to ensure safety and peace of mind. Your pet will always receive attentive, loving care tailored to their routine and personality. I welcome dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Your pet’s routine is my top priority. I follow feeding, walking, and play schedules as you outline, with plenty of attention and breaks for rest. For full-day or overnight stays, I’m present and engaged the entire time, ensuring consistency and care throughout the day. Safety comes first. Dulce and I maintain a calm, controlled environment, and I supervise all interactions between pets. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I can adapt to your pet’s comfort level—whether that means gentle socialization or separate spaces. Your home and your pet’s belongings are treated with the utmost respect.

Irania is respectful, sweet, and responsible. She was extremely punctual and always kept me up to date with exactly what was going on. My dog is 90lbs of playful energy, but that didn't phase Irania. They bonded instantly. I couldn't have asked for a more reliable sitter/walker. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking looking for pet care they can count on.

About: Hello! I’m a Zoology student working toward becoming a veterinarian and a Military Conservation Agent veteran. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including emergency care and working alongside veterinarians, and I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. With my background, I can also provide informed medical guidance when needed. I’m especially a great fit if your dog needs extra care—such as medical support or recovery monitoring. I can administer medications, closely track their condition, and offer cross-border vet services to Mexico, either accompanying you or independently taking your dog for care. My goal is to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. As a full-time student, I work around my class schedule and maintain a high level of flexibility. My only fixed commitments are my lab sessions, but outside of those times, I can adjust my availability to fit your needs, including early mornings, evenings, and most daytime hours. I have professional experience handling high-drive even dangerous animals, including wolfdogs and wildlife. I know how to manage strong breeds safely and calmly. I respect your home and property. I use professional handling techniques to ensure safety during walks, and I am fully capable of providing basic medical care and behavioral support if any issues arise during my stay."

About: I’ve lived on a farm since I was 11. I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies along with many other animals. I raised multiple litters of newborn puppies and their mothers. I’ve cared for them in many ways. I’ve also worked at a doggy day care and boarding facility and have experience with taking care of many dogs of different sizes and ages. I’m walking dogs and doing dog sitting as a side job now while I attend school. I assure you I have plenty of experience taking care of these wonderful fur babies. I’m currently going to school. I take night classes and need something that is flexible with my schedule. I already walk dogs and do dog sitting through another app called wag. It’s perfect for me cause I can focus on school without being worried about being tied down to a schedule since I’m able to make my own schedule. I also need more services so I thought doing 2 apps at a time might bring more income. I let them out every 2-4 hours to go potty or as needed or instructed my owner. I feed them based off their eating schedule and how many time a day they eat. I take them out for walks and to play with them outside frequently. If the parent need me to do anything else for their pups I’m more than happy to do so.

About: Hello! My name is Amanda and I am currently a stay at home mom. I have 2 dogs named Cal and Luna; a shepperd mix, and a retriever mix. Cal and Luna are both a little over 7 years. I have had older dogs since they were puppies so I do know the round the clock care that dogs need at every stage of their life. I am absolutely an all around animal lover so anything that would make your pet feel comfortable I am willing to do. I love to take my dogs everywhere that I go so they can feel constantly included and not feel as if they are being forgotten at home or left out. I look forward to hanging out with your best friends.

About: Prior to moving to California I’ve taken care of my pup for seven years. I have basic hands on training experience with dogs of all sizes. I love being around dogs and playing with them, walking them, and making them feel at home and safe. I am currently unemployed at the moment and focusing my time on pet sitting. I’m available Monday-Sunday and will have all my attention on your pup and their wellbeing. I can also take in dogs up to 60 pounds! I may not have a fenced yard but i will give your dog plenty of potty breaks and however long you’d like me to walk them. I will keep them safe, loved, and the most comfortable I can.

About: I have taken care of pets most of my life. I have worked with Little Buddies, Wag, Rover and have helped friends and family take care of their pets for many years. I know animal CPR, am experienced in administrating oral and topical pet medication and have a great green open space right outside my home for walking dogs (and maybe even some cats!) My home is cute, comfortable and calm for dogs and cats alike. I’m very intent on helping animals feel safe and secure in my care. Whatever your pet care instructions are I will follow to the T. My cats would be separated in their own favored space while your pets enjoyed free range of my home during their stay. Rest assured your Loved ones are in good hands here, mi casa es su casa, a home away from home 😊 I am an Artist/Painter so I work from home and will be here the whole time while watching your pet while they’re boarding. And when I’m not boarding I have a lot of free time and flexibility to drive out to your fur baby to feed them, walk them, clean their litter or offer whatever care they need. I have a great green open space right outside my home for walking dogs (and maybe even some cats!) My home is cute, comfortable and calm for dogs and cats alike.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for years. While also having my own at some points in life while I currently do not have any pets now I would love to spend some of my time helping people with their pets. I currently have a full time job but I am available most days any time after 3pm and some weekends. I’ m not very busy after work so that’s why I want to start taking care of some pets. I live in a house which has its own yard so I have plenty of room for dogs to play and run around. But I prefer to just help other take their dogs out when they are busy

Dog Walking FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Alta Vista dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Alta Vista.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
