“She is terrific! Her flexibility was very helpful when my pup needed an earlier walk to relieve his bladder! And when our schedule changed she was ready to take on more walks.”
“Cassie has been walking our two dogs twice a week, and we couldn’t be happier. She’s attentive and makes sure both dogs get the exercise and care they need. I really appreciate the updates and photos after each walk—it’s clear she genuinely cares about them. Reliable, kind, and professional; we’re lucky to have found her!”
About: I have taken care of my own pets (two cats and a dog), as well as those of my friends and neighbors since I was a child. I am experienced with reactive and anxious dogs, and am experienced in administering medication. I can take your dog on long walks (5+ miles) and hikes if that’s their thing. I will always give your pets the same care and affection I give my own! My work schedule is extremely flexible. Most of my work obligations are mid-morning, and the rest of my day/evening is free. I walk several miles per day on my own, and would love to bring your dog along with me. I will show your pet the same love and affection I give to my own pets. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness are my top priority, and I will adjust my services to fit their individual needs.
“Gina was absolutely wonderful! She is kind, professional, and very communicative throughout the entire visit. She takes initiative without needing to be asked, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs, and we couldn’t be happier with her care. We highly recommend her! ❤️”
About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience! I grew up with multiple dogs and have spent years walking and caring for pets, including overnight stays. I’m comfortable with different routines, energy levels, and personalities—and I always make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. Mondays–Wednesdays are my off days and my most flexible time. I work Thursday–Sunday afternoons starting around 2, and my mornings are usually reserved for staying active—walks, workouts, or anything that gets me moving. I don’t have pets currently, but I’ve grown up caring for family and friends’ dogs and I’m comfortable with most breeds, prioritizing calm, safe, attentive care.
About: I have been a pet sitter since I was a teenager. I love all animals. I find spending time with them relaxing. I personally have one dog. We love hiking and adventuring together. I enjoy cats too. I love their dependence but also they have such strong personalities. I know how hard it is to know your pet is home alone and I’d love to give your fur friend a visit or let them exercise while you are out and about. I love walking and it is even more fun with a four legged friend. I have experience with fish as well as rabbits and hamsters. I look forward to meeting your pets and spending time with them. I am really looking forward to the adventure ahead.
“Communicative, caring and pleasant. Allison helped me with my fur baby while my roommate was out of town, last minute might I add!!! She genuinely loves what she does, and spreads the love to her fur friends. Would definitely rebook her for the future!”
About: Hi! I’m Regan, a dependable animal lover who treats every pet like family. I have four years of experience caring for dogs and cats and I enjoy learning each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m happy to provide the care your pet needs while keeping you updated with messages and photos along the way. I currently work in an corporate weekday environment and best suited for a client with a pet who can be left alone throughout the day. On the weekends, I can spoil your pet with all day snuggles and walks! I keep pets comfortable by following their normal routine and stick closely to feeding schedules, walks, and any special care instructions. I do not take pets to dog parks unless specifically asked to. My goal is to spend quality time with them so they feel safe and loved while you’re away, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“We LOVE Amanda and so do our dogs (older Border Collie and young Australian Shepherd)! She is very dependable and trustworthy and is very skilled with dogs. We breathe a sigh of relief knowing that our beloved pets are in good, safe hands. You can tell that she is devoted to caring for canines and we appreciate the kind care that she provides for the special dogs in our lives!”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple kinds of dogs and cats for family and friends ever since I was a little kid, and owned both kitties and doggies of different breeds most of my life. I’ve read a few training books for doggies, stayed multiple nights for pet sitting, volunteered at pet shops, worked at pet stores, handled kittens and puppies with care, worked with senior cats and dogs, as well as other barn animals as well! I am currently working a part time job in silverdale, usually around 10-15 hours a week. I always receive my schedule at least a week in advance, so I just need time to plan around that. Otherwise, I’m a fairly open schedule! I have experience with crating dogs and giving them daily medicines if needed, or any unique care. If there is ever at all an emergency situation, I will call you immediately while also taking your dog to the vet.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life growing up on a farm. I have had loads of experience with all walks of animal life in all stages of life. I am a stay at home mom, with two kids ages 6 and 8. Other than trips to school for the little ones, I am free all day. I have a very large fenced back yard, in a beautiful safe neighborhood, that has long side walks, and parks that are perfect for walking.
“Brie is amazing with my dogs Rosie and Daisy. They absolutely love her. I have called upon her on short notice a couple times and she has rushed right over to help me out. I can not reiterate how amazing she is! 10 out of 10 I recommend her!”
About: I’ve always been a lover of animals big and small! I’ve been in the pet sitting business for the past 4 years. I know how important it is for pet parents to feel like their fur babies are in safe hands and with me they are. I am currently a substitute teacher and have a pretty open schedule. Some days I do work 7 hours but when I’m free your pets are my priority. I always respect the clients rules and how they take care of their pets and home. I’m comfortable in most houses and with all animals.
About: I’ve been around dogs since child hood and taken care of my two dogs from adulthood into their old age. I have done daylong sitting for both elderly and young dogs, including plenty of walks. I have also cared for two dogs and two cats at once for just under a week. Animals have always been a part of my family. I am on summer break and have plenty of free time to play with cute pets. I am available most weekends and every day of the week, almost anytime. Whatever your pet requires is what I will give. I will give your pet a safe environment that respects the boundaries and needs of your animal. Give me a list of requirements and I’m more than happy to oblige. I do not do pet boarding.
About: Hi! I moved to Silverdale about a year ago. I grew up with cats, dogs, and horses. Dogs hold a special place in my heart. Cats are all unique. Makes them puuurfect. I work from home so am available anytime. I would like to meet your animal(s) prior to taking care of them so I can learn their quirks! I've only been officially pet sitting for 8 years, while prior I just owned my own. I am available all day. You just let me know when their feeding times are and I'll make it happen so they can have as much of their routine as possible. I'm also available all day for walks. Even early morning walks or evening walks. I will treat your animal as if it's my own. I have two dogs right now. A puppy and a 6 year old floof ball, there are pictures of them in my profile. My husky and puppy are high energy, so that doesn't bother me with animals. Let me know what you need or if there are any special instructions or toys they like!
About: Responsible dog lover with experience caring for rescue dogs and elderly dogs! Need help with your fur-baby? I love dogs and have experiencing walking dogs, fostering shelter dogs, and house sitting. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and ages and will reinforce any behavior training you and your dog are working on. I’m organized, caring and very responsible. Looking forward to hearing from you! I am a travel PT with a love for animals but move around too much for work to have my own pets t the moment. I work outside of the home so I can accommodate morning and evening walks/potty breaks and evening cuddles! I prefer to care for your pets in your own home (house sitting and drop-ins, not boarding or day-care), as the environment is familiar and it makes everything less stressful for them. I ask for detailed instructions on any routines and schedules your dog is used to and any behaviors you want me to reinforce to make the transition as smooth as possible for your pet.
“Absolutely fabulous. She brought her dog Jimmy and planned to leave him in her car, while she walked my Leo, but I asked her to take Jimmy with Leo if she thought she could handle two big dogs at once. She did. She could. My Leo had a great time and made a new friend. Perfect! The pictures were so adorable.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chico
Naomi took excellent care of our very energetic Goldendoodle during daily drop-in walks! She was very thorough in learning about our dog’s care requirements and preferences. She was also very good with our cat and made sure to check in on him when she dropped in to walk our dog.
Hilary has been great. My dog Freckles is usually very wary of new people, and it can usually take one or two meetings for her to get comfortable with someone new. This time she took to Hilary almost right away. Freckles gets very excited when Hilary comes to walk her, and I'm grateful that it is working so well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Chico on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 11,062 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Chico. 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 Chico. 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 Chico.

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 Chico. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
