“Trina was extremely good at spotting off-leash dogs on our walk, which was particularly helpful for a reactive dog like our GSD/Husky/Chow Chow mix. She was attentive and got along super well with our dog, and we will definitely be hiring her again.”
“RJ took great care of Remy on his walk. He’s communicative, friendly, and transparent about everything. It’s my first time using Rover and it can be stressful finding someone to trust your fur baby with but I instantly felt comfortable with RJ and most importantly Remy did. He sent photos and videos throughout the walk which I loved.”
“Tiffany is great. She is punctual and dependable. Our dog Penny loves going on walks with here. Definitely recommend her for anyone needing a sweet person to walk their pet.”
“We were out of town for a week and had Alex come to walk our 3yr old Labrador daily. Alex did a great job, followed instructions, and provided photos and walking route everyday. We would definitely book again with Alex.”
“Justin was great with my Belgian Malinois, Peanut. He arrived on time, was very patient, and listened carefully to all instructions. I appreciated how attentive and calm he was during the walk. Peanut seemed comfortable with him right away. Would definitely book again! In fact, I'm booking him again right now.”
“Paige was very responsive & accommodating with our last minute request, and took great care of our dog Kiara during her walk. She was very gentle with Kiara, & it was evident that Kiara loved her walk. Will definitely be booking Paige again!”
About: I’ve been providing pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits for over 10 years. Every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to adapt to their individual needs. I strive to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own! I’m available during the weekdays and weekends to care for your pet. I am able to give my full time and attention to your pet. I love to have a meeting with you and your pet before I take care or walk your pet! This is so I can get a good understanding of what you are looking for and how I can best take care of your pet.
About: I raised my own Scottish Terrier from 2010 to 2022. I would walk Terry with other dogs around Lake Elizabeth anytime there was the sun in the sky I’m free anytime from 8am to 2pm. I typically go for a walk around 9am or 10am anyways throughout the week or weekends so I would love any doggy companion. I live in a brand new apartment complex by Lake Elizabeth in Fremont. I love going for daily walks and bringing dogs to the dog park or a ring around the lake!
About: I absolutely adore animals. I've grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have two cats at home. Previously experienced with caring for my senior dog who had CKD. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats of different sizes and temperaments as I'm currently working as a vet assistant and studying to be an RVT. I recognize that every pet parent has their individualized way of caring for their pet and I strive to support that. Your furry kid means a lot and you should feel confident and comfortable with their care. I currently work 4 day weeks, 10 hours a day. I have three days throughout the week and nights after work that are available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting. I do my best to maintain a safe environment, staying aware of harmful materials, chemicals or products that a pet could get into. Removing or storing these items safely to avoid any negative exposure. Especially for young pets (and labs) that will eat anything.
About: Hi! 😊If you’re looking for someone dependable, attentive, and easy to trust with your pet, that’s me. I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life, including puppies and senior dogs, so I know how to adjust to different energy levels and needs. I'm an animal lover to my core. I love playtime as much as the quiet moments, and I will always send updates so you’re never left wondering how things are going. Thank you for trusting me with your pets! Book me knowing your pet will be treated like my own. I regularly help watch cats and dogs for family, so caring for animals is already a natural part of my week. I bring flexibility, consistency, and genuine attention to walks or sit ins. For walks, I focus on a calm, attentive pace, staying tuned into your dog’s energy and comfort level, whether that’s a puppy’s excitement or a senior dog’s slower needs. For sit ins, I stick to your pet’s normal environment and routine, and I always include playtime to keep them mentally engaged.
About: I’m very active and I’m an entrepreneur in different fields. I have two dogs and a cat that I have self trained from a rescue and would love to contribute my experience and skills to make your pet just as happy as mine are. Always finding new ways to keep a pet active and interested in any given activity and making sure they get the exercise they need to be well rested. I always give the extra effort to maintain a healthy lifestyle for a pet and in doing so I believe the pet contributes the same to me. I always carry treats for training and reward as well as water to make sure a pet never goes thirsty during their active moments. Hoping my experience and skills will make a difference in your pets life! I own a reselling business so pet care fits in my schedule perfectly always have spare time to keep your pets occupied and happy so they will be left happy.

About: I’ve been a pet owner for 8 years and a dog owner for 5 years. However, I’ve been a dog lover my whole life. I own a friendly lab pitbull mix back home. I've take care of him since he barely fit in my hands as a 4 week old puppy. I'm able to provide dedicated overnight care for dogs. Food, water, bed, crate and fence, will be provided as needed. Frequent potty breaks and walks can be given to the pet as he or she needs. Dog walking and dog care can be provided. I'm a student at UCSB. When I am off class, I work part-time with rover. Taking care of your dog would be far from a job for me. Tending to the loving companions dogs are fulfills my day like no other. My neighborhood is surrounded by pet owners so ur dog will have company on his/her walks. Dog sitting at the owners house will also not be a problem, and I'm very reachable on my phone for constant updates.
“Shirley is nice, kind, and seems to do well with dogs! She asked questions that made me feel confident to leave Bruce in her hands :) I would recommend Shirley to anyone who needs someone to trust to take care of their fur baby 🐶”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care. I also have experience with cats and other critters, and I currently have all three myself, so I understand their unique needs and behaviors. I’ve worked alongside professional dog trainers, which has helped me build strong handling skills and better understand training, behavior, and safety. In addition, I’ve volunteered with animal shelters, giving me experience with a wide variety of temperaments and situations. I treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I offer open availability for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the day, making it easy to accommodate your pet’s schedule, I keep my calendar as up to date as possible as well marking any days I will not be available. For the comfort and safety of all pets, I provide care in your home rather than mine. I’m more than happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or just giving extra love and attention, I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care as my own.
About: Hi!! My name is Aurora and I’m so excited to take care of your furr baby or babies! I have years of experience taking care of a wide range of pets from cats to big and small breed doggies. I love animals and believe they are a member of the family and should be treated as such! I have been relied on for walking my friends and neighbors doggies, cat sitting, and routine check ins to ensure that their fur babies are happy, healthy and, most of all, not lonely! As you can see from my pictures, my partner and I have three amazing fur babies, two of which are cats and one big doggy. Our two cats are Hela and Athena and our big goofy fluff ball of a doggie is named Loki. Because I raised my little family members from babies, I am more than comfortable taking care of puppies or kittens also! Pet care fits easily into my schedule — I work Monday-Friday 8-4pm—, leaving early mornings, evenings, and the rest of the weekends open for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine—feeding, walks, play, and any special instructions—so they feel secure and cared for in their familiar space.

We’re so relieved to have found Trina! One of our dogs takes time to warm up to people and can get scared very easily. Due to this, we haven’t been able to find a trustworthy sitter for any of our travels. I feel so comfortable leaving our dogs in her care and couldn’t recommend her enough.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Brightside on Rover is $23.54 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 13,365 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Brightside. 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 Brightside. 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 Brightside.

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 Brightside. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
