“Olivia was an excellent dog walker. She was on time and communicated with me regularly. My dogs loved her and I could tell they enjoyed the attention she gave them by how happy they were when I got home. She took great pics of them too!”
“Rebecca was great! We have no issues and our dog Molly loved her. We will be reaching out to her in the future for our doggy needs! I would definitely recommend Rebecca to friends.”
“Five stars!!! Katerina was amazing. She just had her first walk with my hundred pound pure muscle German Shepherd mix. She came in with confidence and provided structure immediately. She calmed him down by giving him commands and treats and surprisingly he didn’t jump all over her like he normally does to guests. She gave him an awesome walk provided the cutest photos and I can tell will be the perfect structure he needs for walks. Super excited to book her for reoccurring walks in the future.”
About: I dog sit of my friend dog once a while for almost 5 years. She normally stay with me more than 7 days. I’m good at take her out for a walk even during raining day. I love to give them belly rub. I spend most of my weekend at home so I have time to take care pet during the weekend. I like to take pet wherever I go, otherwise I feel bad for leave them at home for a long time. I live in a two story townhouse with 2 bedrooms, offering plenty of space for small dogs to comfortably move around and go up and down the stairs. There’s a community park right outside my home, and I love spending time outdoors. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks and make sure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air, especially if they enjoy being active.
“Jennifer was great! She was on time and attentive to our dog and provided lots of photos and feedback after their walk. My dog was happy and tired after his walk! We will definitely book her again :)”
“Jessica did great. Boli can be a bit temperamental and she knew exactly how to calm him. They had a great walk, and she’ll be coming back to walk him this evening. I’m so glad she is helping us out . I recently had shoulder surgery so I cannot have my eager guy yanking on me. He is usually easy to manage but if he sees squirrels or raccoons, all bets are off!”

“Juli was wonderful, our baby loved her company and care. Juli arrived on time and maintained communication throught the walk/visit, we highly recommend her and her services! Thanks again!”
“We hired Diane for drop-ins and for walking our senior dog and we were very happy with her service. You can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs. I recommend her to anyone! Thanks, Dede!”
“Alyssa walked our dogs for us while we traveled to the east coast for a wedding, she was on-time for all of their walks and took excellent care of our dogs. Our dogs are senior dogs (10 and 14) and not always good walkers, but our girl Chutes particularly did well with Alyssa and was able to get some great walks. Would absolutely recommend Alyssa and will definitely request her services again.”
“Daniela met all our expectations. She communicated well, was on time, and sent photos. Our dog, Coco, reports that that she liked Daniela and really appreciated that she took her to the Paso Nogal dog park.”
“Joseph was the most excellent, reliable, friendly and professional! We are so incredibly grateful for his help to walk and take care of our dog for weeks (!!) during a major life transition for my family. Joseph was communicative and just a joy to work with. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our dog during this time.”
“Stephanie is awesome! My big lab is pretty anxious and excitable around new people and she warmed right up to Stephanie. She is super calm, confident, and obviously an experienced dog handler, and I felt great about sending my big fur baby off with her for an adventure. Will definitely be hiring her again for dog walks!”
“Ollie loves his walks with Ann. He sits by the door waiting for her and wildly wags his tail when he greets her. Now Ollie can hardly wait for his parents to take a vacation so Ann will come back to walk him.”
“Melissa was outstanding and super professional. It was nice not to have to worry about the care of Buddy so I could have space to care for my Mom. Buddy came back happy and exercised. Highly recommend.”
“Emily is incredible! She has been walking our 2 (big) dogs for about 2 weeks now and the boys are loving the walks. Emily is very alert to all their needs and is even helping to train them along the way. Booking with Emily was super easy and she always responds quickly to any/all messages. I would definitely recommend her services! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Agne was wonderful with my dog! I had a malfunction with my door that normally lets my dog out, and she was able to meet my dog the day of Ann taking him for a walk later that evening, which I really appreciate appreciated! She was timely, friendly, and very good with my dog! Would definitely recommend her as a dog walker and I love the fact that she lives so close by!!
Amy was great! She was communicative, responsible, and wonderful with our corgi, Mochi, who can be a little cranky sometimes. She followed all directions and took great care of him on his walks while we were away. We really appreciate her help and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Amy!
Stephanie is awesome! My big lab is pretty anxious and excitable around new people and she warmed right up to Stephanie. She is super calm, confident, and obviously an experienced dog handler, and I felt great about sending my big fur baby off with her for an adventure. Will definitely be hiring her again for dog walks!
We have had wonderful experiences working with Kelly. Our dog hasn’t had much exposure to new people and can be a bit nervous around strangers, but she was incredibly patient, kind, and understanding. She took the time to help our dog feel comfortable, and we were so impressed with how quickly trust developed. She was also extremely communicative, keeping us updated and answering any questions we had, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. In addition, Kelly has been very flexible and willing to help us coordinate dog sitting coverage during an important time for our family. Her reliability, professionalism, and genuine care for our dog has truly stood out. We are so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate dog walker or pet sitter!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Contra Costa Centre is $31 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $49 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Contra Costa Centre. 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 a map of the walking route, 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 Contra Costa Centre 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 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 Contra Costa Centre. On Rover:
- 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
