“Briana has been amazing with Ginger. She always comes on time and brings great energy every day. She’s steady and reliable when you need her to be but also can adjust and pivot if need be. Once Ginger wasn’t well and instead of her normal dog walking she offered to help me get her to the vet. She truly went above and beyond. Please don’t think twice about booking Briana!”

About: I hope I can always provide the best care for all the cuties. I believe dogs have different personalities and their owners kept them in a certain way. I will make sure that I remember all the caring tricks, then I can provide the right carings. I have adopted a German Shepherd since August 5th, 2018, and she is 6 months old now. She is growing very healthy and happy. Normally I will play with her every day for at least 2 hours and we will explore the outside together. She is more than 50 lbs, and always very enthusiastic, her energy always makes me want to be positive like her. With animals, I never feel stress, and to be around with dogs is the best therapy. Also, I am volunteering in an animal shelter, there are many tasks I can work on, I can walk dogs, groom the dogs or I can set a stow into the kennel, sit there and chat with the dogs. I am currently working full time at Stockton Animal Shelter Friday to Monday 8AM-6:30PM. My brother and father will be 24/7 home looking after the pups. When I am not home, my family will take over and supervise the pups at home. We been working together as I have began my Rover journey. I have fenced yard. Pups in house will have their own space. Feeding time will be separate. My two gentle girls mind their own business, and willing to keep the pups staying in the house in company.

“Brooke is absolutely amazing!!! we couldn’t recommend her more. From the start, she was trustworthy and professional, and we felt completely comfortable giving her a key to our home. She took incredible care of our dogs, especially Hopper, who is a big, strong boy and not always easy to handle. She walked him twice a day, made sure he was well-fed, hydrated, and exercised, and treated him with so much love, like he was her own. She also gave our smaller dog plenty of attention and affection while she was there, which meant a lot to us. What really stood out was her communication. She kept us updated consistently, sent lots of pictures, and made us feel at ease the entire time we were away. She even went above and beyond by offering to pick up dog food if we needed it, something that truly shows her level of care and dedication. Brooke is reliable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals. It’s rare to find someone who combines professionalism with that kind of warmth and love. We 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust with their pets and their home.we’ll definitely be continuing to use her for walks and care in the future.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets as long as i can remember! I actively volunteer at animal shelters where I gained TONS of hands-on experience caring for dogs, puppies, kittens, and cats with different personalities, energies, and illnesses. I have experience with animals of all temperaments and believe no pet should be excluded just because they are more reactive or nervous than other pets everyone deserves lots of love and attention:) I have a dog park right next to my house and would love to utilize it to make your dogs day!! I also have basic training skills and would love to teach your dogs some new tricks :) I currently work at home so I have more than enough time to dedicate to the pets in my care. I’m available for long enriching walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and cozy overnight stays. I’m flexible with scheduling and take last minute bookings🫶🏼 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is getting genuine attention, patience, and affection—not just a quick check-in. I’m attentive during walks and playtime, make sure pets are supervised, and always keep doors, gates, and leashes secure. When caring for pets in their home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and being well cared for.

About: Ive had all sorts of animals surrounding me my whole life and family and friends trust me to watch over them when they are away, ill always watch over a furry friend! I have an open schedule, attending school only twice a week for just 2 hours most my days are free. Pet care is a perfect fit for my schedule! I care for my pets and anyone else’s with the most amount of love possible. From running and playing yo laying and relaxing, I love being around an animal.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized care and attention I give to every pet. I treat each dog like they're my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I have experience with both energetic puppies who need structure and stimulation, as well as senior dogs who require a gentler touch and extra patience. I'm comfortable with administering medications, following specific routines, and reading body language to ensure your pet is happy and stress-free. Whether it's playtime, training, or just some good cuddle time, I adapt to what your dog needs most. I’m very flexible and I’ll always do my best to fit your needs in my schedule! I’m currently a full time deli clerk however with a 2 week notice I would happily be available to take care of your pups/home! I do not offer weekly services sorry! Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is always creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I stick closely to their normal routines-feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and bedtime-to help them feel secure and at ease. In your home, I make sure to respect your space while giving your pet my full attention and care. In my home, I keep things clean, cozy, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room to play and relax. I also send regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is in good hands.

About: Since I was old enough to walk, animals have been a loving part of my life. Growing up in a household where pets were treated as family, taught me that every dog and cat has a unique personality and set of needs. I am particularly skilled at reinforcing consistent routines. If you are working on leash training or basic commands like 'sit' and 'stay,' I make sure to incorporate those into our walks so your progress doesn't stall. I am also experienced with senior care, understanding that sometimes a 'walk' is more about a slow sniff-around-the-block and some gentle companionship than a fast-paced walk. My professional life is uniquely flexible, which allows me to be a great anchor for an early morning walk or early afternoon walk. I am available Mon-Thurs 5am-7:30am and 3:30pm to 8:30pm. Friday, Saturday and Sundays I am available all day for those walks and check ins that are needed when errands outs are the priority. I will treat your home with the same level of respect I’d want for my own. My process is thorough: I double check that all doors are deadbolted, alarm systems are set, and water bowls are topped off before I leave. To keep you in the loop, I provide detailed Rover Cards after every visit. You’ll receive photos of our adventures, a map of our walk, and a summary of all 'business' handled. If a mess occurred while you were away, I handle the clean up thoroughly so you can come home to a fresh house and a happy, relaxed pet.
“Vianca is reliable, caring, and takes great care of Monte. I really appreciate the updates and photos from their walks, and it gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in good hands while I’m at work. He looks so happy and excited to see her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog walker!”

If you are looking for someone responsible, trustworthy and loving to your pet Abby is highly recommended. Thank you”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since 1997; from dogs/cats-reptiles/fish & I was taught to treat them with just as much care, love & respect that you’d give a child. I’m familiar with their care, needs & certain levels of training. That being said, I hope to have the chance to meet yours & care for them while you're away! I currently work from home & have had some extra time on my hands. I recently came across Rover & thought it would be a perfect way to invest my spare time in an intentional/purposeful & financially lucrative way. I can work around most schedules, whether that’s weekends, early mornings or evenings. The best part about animals is that they’re all so different & unique in their own special way; which calls for a different level of care from pet-pet, not 1 animal is the same in my opinion. All that to say, I’m willing to adapt to anything/everything your pet may need while you’re away & hope to hear from you soon!

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 August. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

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.
