About: I have decades of experience with both cats and dogs! I have a reactive/senior dog that I have had since he was a puppy. He also suffered from severe separation anxiety, that I had to help him with when we first got him. I rescued him from the Humane Society. I have had training with him, to help give him his best life. I have experience with both dogs and cats, from puppy/kitten to senior age and every age in between. I do have basic pet training skills, including leash training, as well. I also can administer oral medication when needed for dogs. I have experience with dogs with special needs, such as, blindness and special dietary needs. I have experience with active/herding dogs as well. My senior dog Willow, was a boarder/lab. She recently crossed over the rainbow bridge. She was over 13. She was a very active girl. I also have 2 grand dogs. A 4 year old male Great Dane/hound and a 1 1/2 year old male Australian shepherd. I take care of them from time to time when my family needs me too. I also have several clients that I regularly take care of their pets while they’re either at work or away on vacation. I offer several types of services for your pets. I can do drop ins/potty breaks, walks/playtime or overnight stays when you’re away or on vacation. I also provide photos/videos, so that you can see how much fun your fur baby is having while you’re away! I do have experience with multiple dogs/cats households.

If I am taking care of your pet while you’re away for overnight stays, I will generally check on your pet every 4 to 5 hours unless noted otherwise.

About: I LOVE DOGS!! What more can I say? I have had dogs in my family, of my own and taken care of family dogs practically since I was born. I've been around dogs of all shapes and sizes and love all of them, no matter what! I have had experience with special diets, dog walking and even diabetic dogs (using diabetic test strips and glucometer). Sometimes I like to think of myself as a dog whisperer: I can get along with all dogs and read what they need or want. I'm also great at helping dogs to heal or get over their fears! I especially love giving and receiving loves (hugs, kisses and lots of cuddles and petting)! Give me your doggie babies! :D I would love to take care of them!
About: I've helped take care of many dogs and cats as well as other animals within my main family and extended family for as long as I've been able to!

Currently my availability is primarily within the midday stretch on most days. 11AM to 2PM. Though I can extend the earlier hours to 10AM if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure to follow the owner's care instructions closely. During drop-in visits, I make sure your pet has fresh water, is fed if requested, gets plenty of attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks, and I can administer basic medications if needed. I'll also provide updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. For dog walks, I prioritize safety, keeping dogs securely leashed and tailoring the pace and distance to their age, energy level, and needs. I'll make sure they get the exercise and enrichment they're used to while staying safe and comfortable. My goal is to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible so they feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for while you're away.

About: Hi! I’m Rachel, owner and founder of RogiBear Pet Sitting Services. I am lifelong animal lover with a passion for providing top-notch care for pets of all shapes and sizes. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals—both my own and those of friends, family, and clients. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, reliable, and always focused on your pet’s safety and happiness. I’m also comfortable with administering medications, handling special dietary needs, and following any specific routines or training methods you have in place. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I strive to offer peace of mind through constant communication, photo updates, and personalized care. Let’s meet and see if I’m the right fit for your pet’s needs—I’d love to help keep their tail wagging (or purr going) while you’re away! I can offer same day care but please reach out to me first. I work part-time in the mornings on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, which means I’ve got lots of free time to hang out with your pets! Whether they need a walk, playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’m around and happy to help. With a flexible schedule and a big heart for animals, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. I always use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid unsafe areas during walks, and closely monitor each pet’s behavior and comfort level. Whether it’s keeping an eye on the weather or double-checking gates and doors, I make sure every pet stays safe and happy. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I know how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care. I communicate clearly and promptly with pet parents, provide updates with photos, and follow all care instructions to the letter. You can count on me to be reliable, respectful, and genuinely invested in your pet’s well-being. I care deeply about the environment and try to minimize my impact during walks and visits. I always clean up after pets, properly dispose of waste, and reuse supplies when safe and appropriate. I also support local parks and green spaces so pets can enjoy clean, healthy environments for their adventures.

About: I’ve been in love with animals since I was a child- there has always been dog(s) in my household. During high school and college, I would often dog sit as an overnight sitter for local families and professors! I have experience walking and caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. My job consists of mostly evening hours, which leaves me some extra availability throughout the day ! This makes me an extremely flexible person, and I’m more than willing to work with you. I have a lab/pix who is friendly to most dogs after a quick introduction- I also have the ability to keep dogs separated from each other.
About: Hello! Thanks for taking the time to read my profile. My name is Aly, and I absolutely love animals. Every animal has its own unique personality, which makes spending time with them so rewarding and fun. Pet care has given me the opportunity to earn extra income, meet wonderful people, and spend time with some truly amazing animals. Along the way, I’ve also learned so many interesting things I never would’ve thought to look up myself in conversations with new people. I have roughly 15 years of professional pet-sitting experience, along with a lifetime of caring for family pets. I’m experienced with: • Dogs (puppies to seniors) • Cats (kittens to seniors) • Chickens & roosters • Pigs (farm pigs & mini pigs) • Fish (bettas, goldfish, koi, and tropical fish) • Horses • Chinchillas • Guinea pigs & hamsters • Rabbits • Turtles • Ferrets • Hedgehogs • Corn snakes • Reptiles, geckos, & lizards I’m always happy to learn and add more furry, feathered, or scaled friends to that list. Thank you for considering me to care for your pets! Monday through Friday, I work a 6-8-hour shift, but I schedule pet sitting and house sitting around my work hours & leave to ensure pets still receive plenty of care and attention. My greatest availability for full- time in house is: • Weekends & holidays • Monday–Friday: Midnight- 6:00 AM and 4:00 PM–Midnight. I will always do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine and needs while providing reliable, attentive care. I have a checklist that I review with pet owners to ensure we cover everything as thoroughly as possible. This includes bathroom schedules, allergies, medications, the type of fencing or yard setup they have, whether pets are allowed on furniture, and if they are sensitive to thunder or loud noises (primarily so I can monitor them closely during storms or fireworks). I also ask about grooming needs, any injuries or hotspots to watch for, veterinary contact information, and the nearest emergency vet in your area. While I’ve never had to take a pet I was caring for to an emergency vet, I believe it’s important to have that information readily available in case treatment ever becomes necessary. We’ll also discuss any limitations they may have, as well as whether they’re allowed to go on rides, walks, swimming outings, or even enjoy the occasional pup cup 🩶 I also like to review each pet’s daily routine and preferences with owners to help keep their care as consistent and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll ask about feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, sleeping arrangements, favorite activities, and any behaviors or sensitivities I should be aware of. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and stress-free in my care while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being treated like family.

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 Berkeley. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Berkeley.

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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Berkeley. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
