About: ✅ Same-day photo updates ✅ Flexible schedule ✅ Comfortable with dogs & cats ✅ Small & medium dogs welcome I’ve been a pet parent to both dogs and cats for many years, and caring for animals has always been a meaningful part of my life. My pets weren’t just animals—they were family. Saying goodbye to them was one of the hardest experiences I’ve ever had, which is why I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet in someone else’s care. I treat every pet with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I gave my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions carefully to help them feel at home. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting on weekdays and weekends. I always do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and daily routines. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment, and I always make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you’ll always know how your pet is doing.

“Haijin and Victor are AMAZING to work with. I’m always at ease when they walk and care for Tofu. For being an anxious pup, he’s been so comfortable with them from the start. I love that they are always on top of communication and you can tell they have a lot of experience working with dogs. I’m very grateful for them!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. I currently have three senior dogs and three cats.

I have been trusted to care for friends and neighbors pets and growing up I had my own dog walking business. Having had three senior dogs I am comfortable with special needs pets and medication administration. I am currently a college student and have a part time job. I would be available to do over night stays anytime after 6 pm and stay till morning. My weekends are pretty flexible with my schedule. Depending on the time I can also be available for drop in visits. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new.

About: I have taken care of my dog for four years. In additional, I have helped a friend dog sit their dog for two month while they are on vacation. Have taken care of female dogs during heat. I will prioritize the pets’ routine during my day. Usually walk the dog in the morning around 8 and feed them breakfast. Then I will go about my day. I have a very flexible work schedule so I have plenty of time to play with the dog. In the afternoon I will take her on a second walk of the day and feed her dinner. Scheduled daily walks and meal time. I would play with them whenever I have a chance. Give them space to rest when it is needed.

About: Hello, I currently work at a doggy daycare named St. Tropawz. It can become quite busy, meaning I'm familiar with caring for up to 15 dogs at any given time. I'm particularly fond of Dobermans and high energy breeds like Huskies. I understand how to work with a dogs temperament to keep everyone safe during sudden unforeseen events. I work part time at a doggy daycare located in Rosemead California named St. Tropawz. Outside of that I'm a student, currently learning Linux and cybersecurity after having been in the cannabis industry for 7 years. I'm familiar with how to approach pets that are unfamiliar with me but would greatly appreciate meeting your pet alongside you to help establish trust. I currently have a senior Husky named whiskie who is ten and a half years of whom I take for daily walks while riding my longboard. That way he gets to stretch his legs and go for a nice run or jaunt jog. While working at the doggy daycare, I will at times look after dogs who are a bit skittish. I understand the importance in giving a dog space and allowing them the time and patience needed to warm up to new individuals. I also was taught by my parents to respect another persons home. I like to think the way we interact with the world around us is a reflection of how we were raised and a mirror to our inner world. With that in mind I will pay careful mind to your space, your instructions and your pets!

She's reliable even on last minute bookings and very transparent. I'm a frequent customer of hers and highly recommend!”

About: Growing up without pets of my own, I was always happy to help out family and friends with their pets. While more of a cat person, I’ve watched dogs of many breeds and ages, lizards, fish, and birds as well. I’ve administered medicine to older kitties, worked with aggressive smaller dogs, and walked dogs twice my size (I am only 5”2) ☺️ I’m also known to go above and beyond simply because I love animals. I treat them all like they are my own and understand leaving them is never easy. I aim to provide peace of mind in any way possible. At home I have two kitty cats that my partner and I care for. When I’m watching your pets, they are my top priority. Any hours you need, I have you covered. I teach yoga a few times a week so I’m flexible (pun intended) with my schedule! At your home, I will have a list of any questions upon arrival to ensure your pets stay safe and healthy with me. We’ll go over feeding, sleeping, play zones, water, and any medication your pets need. On top of that, I’ll ensure I have knowledge of all doors or windows that can be opened to allow your pet outside.

About: I love dogs… of all kinds! That’s an understatement. My boy is Sailor, the Siberian Husky you see in my profile. The other two dogs—Bokee & Penny—are my friend’s dogs that I dog-sit for whenever I’m needed. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable with any breed. Your furry friend will love hanging out with Auntie Tamara. I work for myself so I’ll have plenty of time for your fur babies. From feeding to walking to bathing to chilling, your pup and I will be the best of friends. In terms of my house, I have a yard with high walls so Sailor doesn’t even try to go anywhere unless it’s with me. When taking care of my friend’s dogs, they entrust me with their house key so I can come over and watch over the pups (even when they’re older, they’re always puppies in my eyes). When you ask me to dog-sit for you in your home, you can trust me to treat your space with the utmost respect. Same goes for the fur babies. They’re always in good hands with Auntie Tamara.

About: I just love spending time with cats and dogs. I am an active volunteer at a animal shelter. I participated in programs like dog socialization, public training classes and clicker training. I am also a team member of the cat adoption program which tasks include husbandry, socialization, adoption counseling and so on. And I do all of this for fun. Enjoying it 100%. Looking forward to have the chance to meet your furry friends!! Bilingual: English, 普通话 I have a flexible working schedule which can easily accommodate your need. I am available for dog walking and drop-in visit up to 3 times a day as long as I get a request in advance. Safety is the first priority for both of us. I always ask the parents for what is allowed and what is not. For dogs, I give them all my attention during walks (consistently of poop/pee, trash eating, etc.,). And after walks, I always wipe their paws and check for any signs of abnormalities. For cat drop-in visits, I perform husbandry including litter box cleaning and refilling, feeding and socializing if needed. Customization is welcomed. Communication is very important and trust can be built. Let’s make this a great experience.

Alexis is absolutely wonderful! I couldn’t be happier with her. She’s always on time, communicates beautifully, and genuinely cares about Oliver. He’s a big dog and can be a handful, but he absolutely adores her, which says a lot! She’s reliable, professional, thoughtful, and makes the whole experience stress-free. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Arcadia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Arcadia is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $31 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 21,418 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Arcadia. 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 Arcadia. 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 Arcadia 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 Arcadia. On Rover:

  • 86% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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 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.
