“Ilse did great with Xena. She was attentive to Xena’s reaction to other dogs . She kept her under control and calm. Xena was happy to see Ilse when she came. She was on time and was needed for a week after I had hip surgery. Good job.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I treat each pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet's unique routine and personality. I'm comfortable caring for energetic puppies/kittens who need consistency and playtime, as well as senior pets who may need extra patience, gentle care, medication reminders, or a slower pace. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands. Im currently just doing school twice a week Tuesday and Thursday during the evening. Im currently working from home so I have plenty of free time to take care of your adorable fur a babies. I provide loving, attentive care by following each pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. At home, I care for my five indoor cats and three small dogs every day, so I'm experienced with feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks, playtime, and giving each pet individual attention. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their routines and instructions, keep the home clean, and make sure pets get plenty of exercise, affection, and companionship. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.
“"I couldn't be happier with their service. I was nervous about finding the right walker for my kids pup, but they were incredibly patient and gentle. Fantastic service! They are dependable, trustworthy, and go above and beyond to make sure my dog gets plenty of exercise I will be back in the future”
“Once again, Fioa provided excellent care for my dog..I really appreciate her kind ways and willingness to work with my anxious pup. Fiona is responsible and communicates well.I feel very comfortable with her her respect with my home. I will use her services again.”
About: I have had dogs since I was 7 and Cats since I can remember. I am happy to assist with pet-sitting, midday care, and walking. I currently have flexible, open availability and would be happy to provide dependable, attentive care for your pets according to their individual needs and routines. I provide attentive, individualized pet care in each client’s home, following the pet’s normal routine for feeding, fresh water, walks or exercise, playtime, medication instructions when provided, litter-box or waste cleanup, and plenty of companionship. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication, including updates so clients know their pets are comfortable and well cared for. I do not provide boarding, kennel services, or pet care at my own residence.
“Lestat is a very shy dog and suffers of anxiety. Rod was able to connect with him from the very first day. He walks him to the neighborhood park and sends me the best pictures. Shows that he cares for my dog. Im very thankful and that's the reason why keep scheduling him. Thanks Rod !”
“Emma is very punctual, flexible with her schedule, and easy to communicate with. My dog is high energy and anxiety, she’s not trusting of new ppl and is very vocal. Two walks later, she’s Emma’s best friend. I appreciate Emma’s calm energy. She lets dogs go to her and doesn’t force any affection onto them while being attentive and sweet. She walks my dog twice a week and she will be boarding with her soon. Highly recommend.”
About: I've been a pet owner/lover all of my life. I rescued and rehabilitated my orange tabby from the age of 4 weeks old, when we found him in the street close to death. I can bottle feed, give medication, and am always available for cuddles. I work from home and have a large back yard so I can walk/let your pups out all day long, and give them a great space to play and roam in. I work from home Monday-Friday, so I am available from dawn til dusk, and am also available on weekends to handle all of your pet care needs. We have a 2k sq ft home, a fenced backyard, and two cats. If I am boarding I am available to walk/feed your animals morning through night, and they will have a large yard to roam and be free in. In warmer and colder weather your animals will be inside, in either AC, or heating. Whatever the weather is feeling that day. I can walk/feed your animals in the morning, afternoon, and evening, and can take them to parks as needed. I have reliable transportation, and am a dutiful pet lover who is extremely attentive and in tune to animals.
About: I've helped raise my sister's dogs and cats since I was 21. I've been watching my mom's best friends pets for a couple of years. I know how to take care of animals with special needs, give them medicine, play and just be excellent company. I'm currently looking for work so I'm free all the time and eager to start helping people that need their pets watched. Pets are everything. Whatever rules you give me I will follow. Safety is always number one priority. I will always have my eyes on your fur babies no matter what.
About: I’ve owned pets all my life. I treat my pets as family members and would love to care for yours the same way while you are away from home. My goal is for you to leave your pets behind knowing they will be well taken care of. I’m currently a stay at home mom of a baby and 2 boxers. I’m constantly playing with my dogs and I keep them occupied all day (boxer energy is no joke) I have a decent sized back yard where your pet can play safe and freely, I also have a special indoor area where your pet can play and rest. If your dog loves to play I own 2 young energetic boxers who love to make new friends and will make sure your dog is exhausted by the end of the day. However, if your dog is older and/or just prefers a quiet place I can certainly accommodate.

“Rebecca is wonderful with my high-energy Lab, he always comes back from his walks tired and happy. We appreciate her flexibility, reliability, and good communication. Definitely recommend :)”
About: Greetings! I have been pet sitting, boarding and dog walking since I was a teenager. Growing up, my neighbors relied on me to take care of their pets and plants while away. I’ve always gone above and beyond, from taking in mail and newspapers to watering gardens, on top of making sure all furry or feathered friends have love as if their parents weren’t away. I never stopped taking care of pets. Throughout obtaining my bachelors and masters degrees, I relied on pet sitting and my regular full time jobs to make a living. I now work as a therapist and need to pet sit on the side to make a living in the expensive Bay Area! I have a pup of my own now who loves to socialize with the dogs we board. I will be gone 5 hours each day Monday-Friday at my work office about 10 minutes away. If your dog is good around people, I can take them with me to hang out and walk the nearby trails on my lunch break I will care for your pets just as I care for my dog. I provide way too much attention and love ;) I take all dogs boarded with me on my jogs if the dog is up to that.
About: Being fear-free and pet CPR certified, I can ensure your pet is in safe hands. We use LIMA & positive reinforcement training methods during our visits I also work full time so at the moment I am only available 3 days a week; Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. Those days I am available any time I have my own car and can transport to your location and send updates with media and a final summary of how the walk went
About: I have worked at 2 dog facilities, The Meadows Canine Camp in Santa Rosa and I currently work at the Milo Foundation where I walk and adopt out dogs. I currently have a foster named Grayson (boxer) who is good with small dogs and I also own a small Maltese mix named Swiffer. I love animals and I am very qualified to take care of your pet while you are away. Cant wait to meet them! I work at the Milo Foundation in point Richmond. I normally work Tuesday-Saturday but we will soon be closed for renovations for the month of September. I will be very available to pet sitting and boarding as I will be working from home the entire month of September! While walking, your pets safety is my number one priority and I will make sure to walk in areas deemed appropriate by clients. Having dogs of my own, I understand the importance on keeping them safe when out. I also like to use a harnesses when walking to avoid a dogs collar slipping and possibility of getting loose.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Carquinez Heights is $26
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Carquinez Heights
Emma is such a sweet lady, always on time, very responsible and gave us plenty of updates both photos, videos and texts! Very responsive and easy to talk to. And my dog loved her, she was clearly very excited every morning when it came to the scheduled time we arranged for Emma to pick her Ik and take her in her walk. Dogs don’t lie and my dog was ecstatic to see Emma. We could not have done our trip without her, we’re very grateful and I think we’re going to have to schedule with her more regularly so my dog doesn’t get depressed. If you need someone you can count on to take care of your dog (big or small, my dog is a 65 lbs very active husky), be responsive and always on time - Emma is your person. Book with her before she’s all booked up. It’s not easy finding people you can trust with your pets so I’m truly grateful we found Emma. Thank you!!!!
Once again, Fioa provided excellent care for my dog..I really appreciate her kind ways and willingness to work with my anxious pup. Fiona is responsible and communicates well.I feel very comfortable with her her respect with my home. I will use her services again.
Rachel is awesome - my dog immediately liked her! She was attentive and had great questions as I gave her a rundown of his likes/dislikes. I’m newer to the area and feel so much better that we now have a great contact like Rachel for walks and overnights if we go out of town.

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

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 Carquinez Heights. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
