About: I have never met a pup or kitty I couldn't befriend! Pets have been an important part of my life for the lion's share of it. I have experience sitting for a large range of dog breeds and I have have taken care of cats most of my life. My schedule is very flexible. As long as I have prior notice, I can fit pet care into any part of my week. I am hoping to develope this into something full time. I have a home with a large yard in the country. Plenty of room for pups to run around. Inside is a nice cool wood floor for pups to rest on after playtime.

About: I have worked with animals a majority of my life. Whether it be dogs, cats, or even exotics, I have worked with a wide variety of creatures. This includes pet sitting, diet management, some training, daycare, and more. I also have 2 years of veterinary experience giving me an insight to recognize behaviors of all sorts of pets alike along with understanding how to work with them. I absolutely love pets, after all I love my own. I have about 7 of them myself including fur and scaled babies alike. My mornings usually start with them, and my nights end with them as well. With my two years of veterinary experience, I can recognize patterns that are out of the ordinary or are strange to the particular animal. This allows me to have proper knowledge of what to alert the pet parent to and ask if the behavior is normal for their babies while also keeping them updated to ensure that they are safe and taken care of.

“Eddie was incredible with our two Boxers. Each had their own personality and style of walking and they took to him quickly. Lots of photos and videos during the walk, so plenty of information in case you worry about your fur babies with someone new. Both came back tired and happy. We felt immediately at ease with Eddie and look forward to using him moving forward.”

My husband and I are a pet care team located just minutes from Ft. Bragg, and we treat every pet in our home like one of our own.

With over 2.5 years of experience on Rover and hundreds of successful bookings, your pet will be in great hands. 💬 Why Pet Parents Love Us: We’re not just pet sitters, we’re pet lovers. We take pride in creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment that helps your pet feel at home while you’re away. We send daily updates and photos, follow your care instructions closely, and treat your pet like family. Our clients appreciate our communication, flexibility, and dedication. Many return again and again! 🐶 For Dog Parents: 🏡 Home & Yard Setup: • Large fully fenced backyard for exercise, play, and sunbathing. • Three rooms in the house, separated with gates for comfort and safety. • Indoor and outdoor security cameras for peace of mind. • Dogs are crated when we step away from the house to ensure everyone stays safe.

If your dog needs solo accommodations or doesn’t get along with others, just let us know in advance. • Please ensure your dog arrives clean for their stay.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Alvarado

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Alvarado is $16 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $20 per walk. On Rover, 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 October 2026, there are 2,638 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Alvarado. 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 Alvarado. 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 Alvarado 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alvarado. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
