About: I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading a dog’s personality and routine. I’m comfortable with different energy levels, feeding schedules, walks, basic commands, and giving dogs the time they need to feel comfortable with me. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I’ll do my best to maintain your dog’s normal routine so they feel comfortable while away from home. I provide a safe, comfortable home with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. I follow each owner’s feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely. Dogs receive plenty of attention and are always supervised appropriately. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates throughout their stay.
“"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”

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.
“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.”

“If I could give Rod 10 stars I would! His communication is excellent - always prompt with pics and information about their walks. He is courteous, professional, and got along beautifully with our three pups! He is wonderful with our extremely shy little girl - SO patient! This was our first time using Rover and feel we got lucky selecting Rod. Book Rod for your next vacation - we know we will!! 😃😃”

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.

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.

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.
