About: I've had pets my entire life. I understand that they're a treasured member of the family. I'm also a weekly volunteer at the LA County Carson/Gardena Animal Shelter. I've received extra training on animal behavior & handling. I love giving animals whatever type of attention they need and I'm extremely patient with them. I'm equally comfortable with dogs & cats (and pretty much everything except orca whales). Overnight stays, walks, giving medication, litter boxes, feeding, you name it. Petting animals is good for our mental health, so let's meet more pets! I work full time in an office Mon-Thurs with an hour commuteon each end. While I can do overnight house sitting, I'm gone all day (12hrs) at work so not available for walks/potty breaks. I work remotely on Fridays, so lots of flexibility. I have two extremely particular kitties at home, so unfortunately I cannot offer care in my own home. But I am happy to come to yours!

About: My first job was as a kennel attendant at a doggy daycare from 2017 to 2019. I’ve had pets my whole life, so I know a thing or two about animal care, and I gained even more hands-on experience working with dogs in a daycare setting. I currently do not own any pets, and the photos included are from my time working at the doggy daycare, except for the one with the brown lab, which is more recent. I’m currently a student at CSU Long Beach and continuing to offer dog-sitting and pet-care services on the side! Being local to Long Beach means I can be pretty flexible with my availability, especially for drop-ins, and longer stays. For transparency, my current school/internship schedule is: • Monday & Friday: Class from 9 AM–5 PM • Tuesday & Wednesday: Internship in Bellflower/Lakewood (times TBD) • Saturday: Class from 10 AM–1 PM Outside of those commitments, I have flexibility and would be happy to work with your schedule! If this availability works for you and your pup, feel free to reach out. I have a cell phone, so I will be able to send photos and contact the pet owner at any time. Asking follow up questions about your dogs health/environment.

Issis has been amazing with our dog Lulu. Lulu isn’t the easiest dog to walk when she first meets someone, but Issis was patient and took the time to gain her trust. We really appreciate Issis’s calm approach and reliability—highly recommend!

About: I am a work-from-home therapist and have two cats in the home. I am open to doing drop-in visits or house-sitting services. I have been a pet parent for over ten years. I am an avid animal advocate and have experience tending to animals with medical needs such as my own requiring medication daily. I am open to caring for senior fur babies as well as cats. I have experience working at an animal shelter, tending to their kennels and providing enrichment time. I have taken care for large dogs, medium dogs, and small dogs are my speciality. I am chronically ill so my availability is quite open outside of medical appointments I tend to and as I work from home, I can take pets out in between meetings and also keep an eye on them during work hours. I have a double door gated area, no yard but I keep an eye on my dogs whenever they outside or I am walking them. My space is one floor and open so they are free to roam. When I am able to drive I take them to the dog park. I follow through with medical instructions whenever my pets or my siblings pets need to take antibiotics of some sort. Within the property I live in, there is one large husky/german sheppard mix that will hangout in the front yard as my sister works offsite. If your dog is okay with other dogs then they are welcome to play togeher. If this would not be feasible then I am able to relocate the husky mix to the backyard of the property.

About: I have always enjoyed being around animals and understand the importance of providing pets with a safe, comfortable, and caring environment while their owners are away. I am responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet's individual needs. As someone with a background in kinesiology and an active lifestyle, I enjoy taking dogs on walks, engaging them in play, and helping them stay active. I take pride in being dependable and treating every pet as if they were my own. Whether it's following feeding schedules, providing companionship, administering basic care, or keeping owners updated with photos and messages, I am committed to making sure both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident. My focus is on creating a positive experience through consistency, attention to detail, and genuine care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and making sure pets are safe and comfortable. I am organized, dependable, and understand the importance of maintaining a pet's routine, including exercise, bathroom breaks, and providing companionship. Whether it's daily walks or extended pet sitting, I am committed to giving each pet the attention and care they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency when caring for pets. In a client's home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication needs, and house rules. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and companionship. During walks and visits, I stay alert to potential hazards and always use secure leashes and harnesses.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 and I have learned many skills like for them to sit and wait for their food. Pet care has fit into my daily routine by coming home from school and looking after my own pets and taking care of my homework. I care for pets in my clients home by talking to the pets and watching them by keeping them close to me but also let them have freedom to do what they please.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet. I've cared for pets much larger than myself and am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes. I have experience giving medications, following detailed care instructions, and making sure each pet's individual needs are met. I'm also experienced with reactive dogs, as well as anxious dogs and cats. I understand the importance of staying calm, reading body language, and creating a safe, low-stress environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Communication is a priority for me, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep pet parents informed while they're away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for, while giving owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I am fully available during the summer months (June through August), which allows me to provide flexible scheduling for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. During the school year, I work in a school-based setting, so I am available in the evenings and most weekends. I am also fully available during school holidays, including Thanksgiving and Christmas. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure every pet receives attentive, reliable care, exercise, and affection. For the comfort and safety of pets, I primarily provide care in the client’s home. This helps pets stay in their familiar environment and reduces stress, especially for dogs that may be anxious or reactive. I do live in a back house where the property owners have three small dogs, so for safety and to ensure a calm environment, I prefer not to introduce new dogs into that space. I am open to cat boarding on a case-by-case basis. I also have a strictly indoor cat in my home who is well-adjusted and calm around other animals. I am available for overnight stays and in-home care, and I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while following owner instructions closely.

About: I provide reliable, structured dog walks focused on keeping your dog safe, calm, and fulfilled.

I focus on maintaining good walking habits, proper leash manners, and clear communication so your dog gets the most out of their time. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I pay close attention to surroundings, avoid stressful situations, and make sure each walk is handled with care and awareness.

I stay flexible when needed, but I always prioritize showing up prepared, being present during every walk, and making sure each dog gets calm, focused care and a positive experience every time. When I’m house sitting, I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free in their own home. I make sure feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, and playtime are done on schedule, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can adjust to their needs.

About: I’ve taken care of my babies since 2009 when they were pups up until they were seniors(16 yrs of age). -I’ve had experience raising a cockapoo and a chihuahua and am currently raising a terrier, and a pug 💖 -I’ve taken care of my friends pitbull and cat multiple times while they were away on vacation What does that entail? -cleaning up after your fur babies so that when you come home, there are no messes that you have to worry about 😊 -spending time with each pet individually! Playtime for everyone! 🤗 -taking your dog out on frequent walks or if during hot days, taking them to areas where there is shade and cool areas or waiting until sun is down and it is safe for them to walk outside.🐕‍🦺🐾 -if medication is needed, setting reminders for their scheduled medication and staying close so that they are not left alone after given medication💊 ❤️‍🩹 -updates with pictures so that you are up to date on what is currently happening with your fur baby 📸🐶✨ - feeding them the appropriate amount of food when scheduled and checking on water levels💦 -monitoring them to make sure they are close by and are out of harms way 🕵️‍♀️ I am currently focusing on school so I have a lot more flexibility to meet with your pets in the morning or at night. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are usually my days dedicated to schoolwork but other than that, I am available any other time of the week! Before stepping outside, I like to make sure that the leash is strapped on to the pets well and wrapped around my hand securely before walking out. I like to ask if your pet likes to run outside sometimes so that I can be more cautious and exiting and entering. I will never bring something that your dog is not allowed to have around for safety reasons like chocolate for example. When playing, I will check to make sure that the item is the appropriate size to play with so that there are no choking hazards. I will honor your pets space while also monitoring them to make sure they are not in harms way. If there are fences I will double check to make sure they are securely closed. When your pets are eating, I will stay around to make sure that everything is ingested properly. When going outside, I will make sure that we avoid any situations that may be potentially dangerous and steer clear of any trouble. I will keep you updated on any suspicious behavior or anything that I may find concerning with your pet. I’m pretty big on communication, so I will try to give you as many details as I could about the visit so much so that you will feel like you were there! It’s important that you know that your baby is in good hands!

About: I have always had a love and passion for animals, especially cats and dogs. I don't think I have ever come across a furry friend who I did not like and want to cuddle. I have taken care of some dogs into their senior years and through their rainbow bridge crossing, and will always strive to do what is best for any pet. I am currently in nursing school and am typically free most days after 12PM except on Wednesdays. So please feel free to reach out to me and let's try to schedule a time that works best for you, your pet, and myself! I treat my pets as my own children. I routinely check them for any bumps or lumps anytime I am petting them, I also make sure to see if there are any signs of stress that I can alleviate by changing something about their environment. When it comes to your pet, I will treat them just like you and I hope to make your fur baby feel like you never left the house.

I have a fenced yard. My dogs do sleep on the bed and are very comfortable asking to go out by scratching doors. They will not run aways I'd gate left open but still other dogs do run looks so tell them to go inside and they will listen.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Compton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Compton on Rover is $18.87 per walk (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 21,547 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Compton. 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 Compton. 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 Compton.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 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 Compton. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 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.
