About: My family has spent a lifetime caring for and loving pets of all kinds, from energetic new puppies and kittens to cherished senior companions. Big or small, feathered, furry or fluffy, they are always treated as family. Our own dogs are trained using German commands, and even our cat is leash-trained, reflecting the time, patience, and care we invest in animal companionship. I understand how important your pets’ health, safety, and happiness are, and I recognize that busy schedules can make it challenging to give them the attention they need. It would be my privilege to provide dependable, compassionate care for your beloved pets and to treat them with the same love and respect I give my own. I am a homeschool mom of two independent children and many fur babies including two dogs, three cats, and a few extras. I am also a youth pastor so my schedule is flexible and late nights not a problem. I have a safe fenced yard and lots of furry companions; however, I will not be sitting animals in my home as I prefer this space to stay limited to my own.

About: PLEASE NOTE As of October 13, 2026, I will be on maternity leave and will not be accepting any new clients during this time. I plan to return after my maternity leave and look forward to seeing both my wonderful returning clients and welcoming new clients when I’m back! Thank you so much for your understanding and support during this exciting time! 🤍 …… With over 16 years of experience in animal care, I bring a strong background in both small and large animals, including horses, livestock, and dogs. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics and dog boarding facilities, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all temperaments and needs. While I value the structure of those settings, I believe in-home care is the most comfortable and stress-free option for most pets. I currently care for two dogs and two horses of my own, and I approach every client’s animal with the same level of respect, patience, and attentiveness I give my own. House Sitting Availability: I’m available for overnight care only, providing feeding, walks, and supervision during the night hours. Drop-In Visits Availability: I can provide up to two drop-in visits per day, including feeding, potty breaks, and basic care. In home boarding : I live in an apartment with a fenced deck, have two friendly dogs, and kids aged 3 and 8. I provide plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I never board more than one family at a time, so your pup gets all the care and attention they need while you’re away. I prioritize safety and trust above all else when caring for pets in your home. Creating a calm, secure environment is essential to help your pets feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I treat your home and pets with the same respect and care I would expect for my own!

About: I have always been around dogs since I was a kid. Between my own, family members and neighbors, I have cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for many years and been able to adjust to each dog’s needs with no problem at all. I am great at tiring pups out with play or long walks or hanging with them if they are on the lazier side! I work part time in Pelham so I’m looking to take care of dogs for fun and some extra cash! I am available differing days of the week depending on my schedule, but when I am free I will be able to tire out the pups with long walks or extended play sessions if they so desire! I will easily be able to navigate client homes and learn a dogs likes and dislikes quickly to make for a smooth and comfortable experience for the pups.

About: My experience with dogs is not as extensive as my cat experience however I learned a lot in owning a dog for a little while. I do not currently have a job so my schedule is fairly open. Once I am employed full time my availability will only be afternoons and weekends. I can easily crate a dog. I can take your fur baby on walks and spend time with them inside your home. For cats I will make sure to feed them, and play with them if they are willing.

About: I have animal experience in a shelter setting and in a medical setting. I’m currently working at a veterinary office as a kennel attendant. I’m also able to administer medications orally or via injections. I work from 8-6, but I get a two hour lunch. I’m able to drop in and check on animals in the mornings, on my lunch break and after work. I’m always mindful of an animals mood and try to adjust accordingly. If there’s treats, toys or routine that make an animal comfortable the that’s what I try to follow.

About: I am a very warm, trustworthy, nurturing person who loves animals of all kinds. I’ve had pets my entire life. My first job was at a vet clinic at age 15 working in the boarding house with the dogs and cats. I’ve dog sat for family & close friends for 20+ years. Animals are normally pretty drawn to me but I was raised to pay attention when a dogs body language communicates that they might need time to warm up. I try to give them as much space and respect that they need. I am a small business owner which allows me to have flexibility in my schedule. Thought this would be a fun way to fill the time in-between meeting with clients. Would love to spend time loving on your pet while you are away. Willing to provide the attention and care that each individual animal in your home may need while you are away. I am very nurturing and have great attention to detail, love to snuggle but I am also very active and love to be outside.

About: I have had pets all growing up and was a lead at a vet clinic for 3+ years! I have been pet sitting for years and I absolutely love it! I am comfortable giving medications, taking care of young and senior pets, and any special requests you have. I love all animals, big or small, and would love to take care of your baby I am available for drop in visits, walks, and pet sitting. I do work, but I have a super flexible job with the option to work from home if needed! I try to cater my weekly routine into what is going to be best for your pet. My overall goal is to make sure they are as comfortable as possible and having a good time! I have friendly dogs of my own who love to play with other pets! They have a blast having friends over and a lot of times they help to make a new pet more comfortable in the new environment. They love to get up and play but are also completely happy if your pet prefers to chill! I know some pets aren’t always comfortable with new dogs right away, so I do have plenty of space to separate them and rotate them out! I can crate my dogs at any time - my number 1 goal is to make sure everybody is comfortable and happy! I would be more than happy to meet with you and your pet beforehand to talk everything over. I want you both to be as comfortable as possible!

About: Hello, my name is Kuvo. I have lived with cats my entire life and currently own five of them. When neighbors or family members are away, I occasionally take over to make sure they are well fed and treated. Experienced with many different types of cats; this includes kittens, aggressive, wild, neurotic and/or disabled cats. I have college in the mornings Monday through Thursday, but I'm free the rest of the time. If there are any sudden inconveniences with schedule then I will notify as soon as possible. (Additionally, my name is Kuvo, but Lydia is fine. Your pet is my priority, so I hope a name will not disturb the service provided.) There are certain times for engaging with cats and certain times to provide them with distance. I hope to prevent stress while also giving them the proper attention they need. I am never too far and know where they are.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Calera is $16 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $19 per walk.

As of October 2026, there are 783 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Calera. 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 Calera. 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 Calera 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 .

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
