“Iliana is an absolute gem! My typically anxious dog warmed to her immediately and now races out the door to greet her for their walks. Communication with Iliana is great. Her pictures are the cutest. So glad I found her!”


About: I’ve had all types of dogs and cats throughout my 58 years of life. I currently have two beautiful Rottweilers whom I love dearly. Now that I’m retired, my goal is to get some land and have an animal rescue. I like spending time with animals more than people. I am retired so my days are spent spending time with my two Rottweilers and going to the gym and that’s about it. I have plenty of time to help care for animals that need me. I will care for your dog in whatever way you request. My schedule with them will be exactly what you want it to be. Both my Rottweilers sleep in my bed with me so if your dogs normally sleep in the bed with you, I will do that too. Actually it’s my favorite 🥰. I get sad when I have to leave my Rottweilers with family only because I know they’ll miss sleeping with me, going to their favorite park and chasing the ball, and spending the entire day with me. Animals get used to their routine and it stresses them out and makes them sad when they don’t get to do their normal things and spend time with their people. So I will try to make them as happy as they can be while you’re gone.

“Angelina was great with Rango. She took great care of him while we were away and had left Rango with my in-laws in Brentwood. I loved the notes and pictures she sent everyday. I eagerly looked forward to the rover card each day. Thank you, Angie, for walking Rango everyday.”

About: 🐾Trusted Care in a Loving Home Environment🤍 Animals have always been my greatest passion and purpose. I’ve dedicated my life to improving the welfare of our animal community. I’m well known in the rescue world and have worked alongside many rescues, assisting with T&R programs, Foster Care, Rehoming & Placement Assistance, Behavioral & Physical Rehabilitation, Feral Rehabilitation and more!. I’ve spent many years loving animals of all kinds — from training sea lions 🩶🦭, rehabilitating wildlife & domestic animals, fostering adoptive pets, bottle feeding babies, providing care for seniors & pets with various medical issues, assisting pet parents with hospice care, working with special-needs, behavioral issues & rescue pets who require patience, understanding, and expert care to of course providing professional pet care services. I have been offering pet care services to clients for over a decade. I have extensive experience in animal rehabilitation, including administering medication, performing life-saving procedures, supporting post-surgery recovery, and managing both physical and behavioral issues. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless animals with conditions such as arthritis, allergies, anxiety, collapsing tracheas, and other age-related or chronic illnesses. My background has equipped me with strong knowledge in pet illness prevention, senior care, physical therapy, and behavioral management. My home is very quiet and stress free. There are no children present or any people traffic. I take requests and make accommodations for pet owners, if a dog or cat is better suited as the only animal present during their stay, just let me know! I spend the duration of a booking and focus 100% of my effort entertaining and attending to pets. Your pet will never be unattended for the duration of a booking. We are kennel free, unless it’s part of your pets regular routine. I currently care for multiple rotating rescue animals and understand that every pet has their own story, needs, and comfort level. I approach each one with compassion, respect, and a calm, confident energy that helps them feel secure and loved. I’m also experienced with administering oral and topical medications, wound care, specialized diets, and gentle rehabilitation exercises to help pets heal and thrive.
“Lauren did a wonderful job of taking care of my border collie mix, Bindi. Normally shy, Bindi warmed up to Lauren immediately and they had a great time together while I was away for a few days. Communication was great and I highly recommend Lauren and Mike.”

“We feel very lucky to have met Chelsea. She did an excellent job caring for our Bernard. He has been very sick and we appreciate the love and care she showed him as he recovers. She is very sweet and made an extra effort to make it fun for Bernard.”

About: What makes my care special is the genuine attention and affection I give every dog who stays with me. I take time to learn each pup’s personality, routine, and what helps them feel safe and comfortable. I have experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, large breeds, multi-dog families, and pups who may be shy or need extra patience. Introductions are done slowly, and dogs can have separate spaces when they need quiet time or aren’t comfortable socializing. Because I work from home most days, I’m able to provide frequent supervision, outdoor time, cuddles, and one-on-one attention. My backyard has artificial turf for safe play and zoomies, along with cozy indoor areas where pups can relax. I provide regular photo and video updates so you can stay connected while you’re away. Drop-off and pickup times are arranged in advance so every arrival and departure goes smoothly. Most importantly, I truly love what I do and care for every pup as if they were part of my family. 🐾💕 Because I work from home most days, pet care fits naturally into my routine. Each pup receives frequent supervision, regular potty breaks, supervised backyard playtime, meals, cuddles, and plenty of time to rest throughout the day. Drop-off and pickup times are arranged in advance within agreed time windows so every arrival and departure goes smoothly. Safety and comfort always come first. My home has a fully fenced backyard with artificial turf for supervised play and zoomies. Soft background music may also be played at a low volume to create a calm, relaxing atmosphere while the pups play or unwind. I host a limited number of dogs and use slow introductions to make sure everyone feels comfortable. Separate areas and cozy indoor spaces are available for pups who need quiet time or prefer not to socialize. I follow each pet’s routine closely and provide regular photo and video updates so you can stay connected while you’re away.
“Cindia is the best dog walker in the East Bay! Great communication and always on time. Our dog Curry gets really excited when he sees her. He’s aging and has specific ailments that she will pay attention to and make sure she gives us updates post walk. We’ve been using her for over a year now consistently and we appreciate her time! Best in the biz!”

About: I have been pet sitting and house sitting professionally for over 5 years and really enjoy it. I love working with cats & dogs (I’m secretly a cat person but I love both) and giving them the level of attention, affection and quality of life you would want for them when only the next best thing (me!) is available. I want your pet(s) to feel comfortable, cared for, and loved when you are away, in whatever way is right for them. I think I am the right fit for pet owners who want their pet to be loved and in good company while they're away. I work part time, which means I have time to spend with them so they won't be as stressed when you're gone. I think it is a much better experience for your pet to be in the comfort of their own home and have someone staying with them so they don't get too lonely. I work for myself so when I am Petsitting I adjust my schedule and lighten it accordingly to best serve the pets and make sure it works for us. I make sure the pets are secured at all times, that we have the feeding schedules down and being aware of any special health concerns.
About: I love all pets ready to take care of anyone’s animals that needs me. I am also available to house sit. Trustworthy and ready to walk your dogs I work and go to school online so I have lots of time to be with your pets and I’m more than happy to walk your dogs. I have two dogs as well that are very friendly that get walks daily. I love being with my pets. I also have a cat
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with both energetic puppies (training basics) and cherished senior dogs (comfort, special needs). I offer personalized care tailored to your pet's life stage, drawing from years of experience with my own pack. My pet care routine is built around consistent daily attention, thanks to my schedule where I'm only working evenings on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. This allows me to provide regular potty breaks, meals, and plenty of engaging activities throughout the day, Monday through Wednesday morning, and all day Thursday through Sunday. My pets thrive with this level of presence and dedicated care. When pets stay in my home, they get a loving, family-like atmosphere with constant supervision, plenty of playtime, and a securely fenced yard. They're treated as one of my own! But as for For in-home visits, I come to you! Your pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment, sticking to their usual routine for feeding, walks, and potty breaks. I ensure their safety and your home's security.
“Holly is great. We have special needs dogs and she is capable to take care of them the exact way we need her too. Great communication and very punctual. Our dogs require a certain level of experience and expertise. She is fully capable and we highly recommend”

About: 🐾Love By Pets. Recommended by humans. Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, temperaments, and care levels. Improving the lives of animals is my passion. Every pet that enters my care is treated like family, receiving the same love, patience, respect, protection and individualized attention I would want for my own beloved pets. Whether you have a puppy, a fragile senior, a pregnant or nursing mother, a shy rescue, or a pet with medical, behavioral, or anxiety-related challenges, I provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, enriching, stress-free and FUN experience that allows pets to thrive while giving their owners complete peace of mind. ✨ Experience Includes: • All ages. Puppies, kittens (bottle feeding ok 👍🏻), seniors, and hospice care • Pregnant animals and nursing mothers • Medication administration and specialized care plans • Medical, behavioral, and anxiety-related conditions • Fearful, reactive, rescue, and special-needs pets • Giant breeds (120–200+ lbs), toy breeds, and everything in between • Bully breeds, guardian breeds, working dogs, and high-drive breeds • Exotic and specialty felines • Birds, reptiles, and small animals • Multi-pet households My experience extends far beyond traditional pet sitting. I have spent years working with animal rescues and participating in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and community cat programs, helping care for and advocate for vulnerable animals. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, trust-building, and how to safely handle pets with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds. I have also been honored to participate in efforts supporting families through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, including helping facilitate meaningful visits for children whose wish was to spend time with animals and pets. These experiences further strengthened my commitment to compassion, reliability, and providing comfort during life’s most meaningful moments. Caring for others—both human and animal—is at the heart of everything I do. Communication is one of my highest priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your family member is safe, happy, and loved. 💗 What Makes My Care Different? • Personalized, one-on-one attention for the duration • Flexible and accommodating scheduling • Solo daycare available upon request • Extended stays welcome • Customized routines tailored to your pet • Calm, loving, family-oriented environment • Experience with pets requiring advanced handling skills • Care from someone who genuinely loves animals and understands their individual needs Many of my clients become long-term members of my pet-care family. I’m proud to have earned the trust of repeat clients who rely on me to care for everything from tiny teacups and exotic pets to giant breeds, working dogs, bully breeds, seniors, rescues, and pets with complex medical or behavioral needs. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That’s why I focus on building trust, maintaining open communication, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, understood, and loved from the moment they arrive. I look forward to welcoming your furry, feathered, or scaly family member and giving them the same level of care, compassion, and attention I would give my own. Because every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve family. 🐾💕 My schedule revolves around pet care already. Caring for animals has been a major part of my daily life for many years through pet care/sitting/walking etc, animal rescue work, and caring for my own pets. While your pet is with me, this is their time and all of my focus and attention is on them for the duration of the booking. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, companionship, medication administration when needed, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a flexible schedule, or specialized care, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to each animal’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, fears, quirks, and any special instructions. Owner guidance and instructions are key to providing the best possible booking and any information provided will be followed closely (and greatly appreciated!). One thing that sets my care apart is that I do not use kennels or crates unless they are already part of your pet’s normal routine and you specifically request it. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and at home—not confined unnecessarily. For families looking for a more personalized experience, I also offer accommodations such as Private Doggy Daycare, Private Kitty Daycare, Private Canine Camp, and Private Kitty Camp, where your pet can be the only guest in my care for the duration of their stay. I am always happy to discuss special requests and customize care whenever possible. Whether caring for a tiny breed, a giant breed, a working dog, a bully breed, a senior pet, or a rescue animal with unique needs, safety, comfort, and individualized attention always come first.
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, fish, and other beloved pets — learning that every animal has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and lovingly care for their pets while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, active, and genuinely loved in my care. I’m reliable, attentive, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like family. As a gentle added touch, I’m also experienced in animal reiki, which I’m happy to incorporate during visits if welcomed by both pet and owner to help encourage relaxation and comfort. Whether your pet loves playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and reassurance, I’ll meet them where they are with love, warmth and care. I currently work part-time. I have plenty of time to play with your fur babies. I am available most days and weekends, including most holidays. I have a fenced dog-friendly where your dog can roam and play. I have a beautiful lawn and a beautiful tree lined neighborhood for long walks.
About: I've taken care of animals since childhood. In particular, dogs were my main responsibility in the family home. Feeding, walking, bathing, medication administration, and cuddling! I currently homeschool my two children so I will be home at all times to care for your fur babies during their stay with us. We have a yard, with grass, that's fenced in completely. The front door has a dog door so they could have access to outside at any time but it can be closed securely if requested. All plants are pet friendly. My children love all animals so your baby will have plenty of attention and affection.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Arbor
We hired Dawna to walk our two labs while we were gone for 5 days. She did an excellent job taking care of them, feeding them and ensuring they got their exercise. She regularly communicated with us and provided updates and photos. She also was always on time. We are very pleased with her service and our dogs took a liking to her for sure. She has dogs of her own and was in her comfort zone. I highly recommend her and we will use her again if needed. Thanks Dawna!

Cindia is the best dog walker in the East Bay! Great communication and always on time. Our dog Curry gets really excited when he sees her. He’s aging and has specific ailments that she will pay attention to and make sure she gives us updates post walk. We’ve been using her for over a year now consistently and we appreciate her time! Best in the biz!

Jazelyn was very reliable and provided frequent updates on our fur baby’s status and how their walks went. She would send us photos and what his mood was for the day which allowed us to adjust as needed. Jazelyn was great with our doggo and would hire her again ❤️

We had an amazing experience with her as our dog walker/sitter. She is incredibly good at handling dogs and immediately made ours feel comfortable—even when they were anxious. She truly personalizes the care to each dog’s needs, walks them often, and treats them as if they were her own. She is also very flexible and understanding with scheduling. We had to change our hours on short notice, and she was more than willing to accommodate us without any issues. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such caring and capable hands. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive dog walker/sitter.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Arbor is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $34 per walk.

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 Arbor. 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 Arbor 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.

- 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
