About: My friends and neighbors count on me to check on and sit their animals, and I regularly walk my own pups with their neighborhood furry friends. I grew up with Rottweilers, and have embraced small dogs in recent years. I'm 6ft and 200lbs, and am comfortable with a variety of sizes of dogs. I currently have total flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help with pet care throughout the day. I'm just getting started on Rover, but I've been a dedicated pet parent for almost a decade and love the way it enriches my life. I'd be happy to extend the same level of care and understanding I give to my own pets to yours. I live with my two pups in a small condo complex, where I have an enclosed back patio and immediate access to a very walkable neighborhood. I am comfortable entering friends' homes and allowing the animals to acclimate at their own pace, and am just as happy taking pets for walks as I am keeping them company in their own homes.

Tara is a top tier dog walker. She had so much patience with my shy, stranger-averse dog and took extra time to build trust. Tara left detailed rover cards for each walk and took plenty of photos.

About: I am a dependable and compassionate pet sitter and dog walker with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet like family. I have experience working with reactive and anxious dogs and understand the patience, awareness, and calm approach they often need. I pay close attention to body language, safety, and each dog’s individual comfort level to help them feel secure and cared for. I currently have a cocker spaniel and love to walk and play with him. I know how important consistency, exercise, affection, and communication are when someone else is caring for your pet. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, companionship, or extra patience and attention, I will provide reliable, loving care and treat them as if they were my own. I am a teacher and have summers off. I have full availability to care (walks and check-ins) for your pet during the week or weekend. I would love to get on a schedule if you need one for consistent work. I am looking for jobs that will get my active and outside. Whether that is playing with your pet inside your home or taking them for long walks around your neighborhood/in a destination of your choosing.

About: I have grown up with pets and trained my own puppies since I was a little kid. I have lots of experience house and pet sitting. I love and care about animals and will take great care of your pets! Pet care fits into my weekly routine because since I have been away at school, I have missed my pets tremendously. At home, I provided constant food and water, lots of attention, and walked my dogs every single day. I miss taking care of them and having animals around. Since I can not have pets of my own at college, I wish to take care of your pets. I care for pets by spending lots of time with them. Pets deserve love and attention. Keeping them fed and making sure their water is always full. Providing medicine when they need it. Letting them outside to use the bathroom. And providing walks for dogs daily.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and it’s something I truly enjoy. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me to feed, walk, and spend quality time with their pets while they’re away. I worked at the humane society, so I have experience with various breeds and temperaments. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs—whether that’s high-energy playtime, gentle care for senior dogs, or helping reinforce basic training. I prioritize safety, routine, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working part-time as a nanny, so I have plenty of time to be with your pet! I’m available on the weekends and Monday-Wednesday I own a home in Talmadge with a fully fenced yard, offering a safe and secure space for pets to play and relax. My quiet, secluded neighborhood is ideal for calm, enjoyable walks. I closely supervise all outdoor time and prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine so they feel right at home.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats throughout my life and have helped pet sit for family friends for over 10 years now. Whatever help you may need, whether walking, grooming, washing, over-night stay, etc., I have done before! Overall, I just love spending time with animals and taking care of them! I’m currently free at the moment, looking for a part-time or full-time job. I have a very flexible schedule so if there is any service needed, I can be there right away. Whether I have pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure that they are comfortable with my presence first. I gain their trust and then start working on their needs, whether that be taking them outside, feeding them, brushing them, etc.

Savannah was excellent! I appreciated how thorough she was and how she put so much care and intention into caring for my dog, Yuki! We scheduled a meet and greet beforehand so that we could go over some details and get acclimated with each other. On the day of the walk, she followed all of the instructions and sent some cute photos from the walk. Will definitely be working with Savannah again soon!

About: What sets me apart is how attentive and patient I am with every pet I care for. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I take my time to make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for during every visit. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in, I treat each pet like they’re my own and make sure they get not just the basics, but genuine care, affection, and attention. Pet parents can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and consistent every time. I am currently with a lot of free time, trying to stay active and what better way to go for walks than with a dog. I’m very attentive, patient, and reliable. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during every visit.

About: I've dog sat for friends and family over the years. Helped dogs while sick during their stay with them. Including taking action with going to the vet. I never allow strangers to pet a dog that is not mine to protect not only the stranger but more importantly the dog. Hi I’m Anna, Margaret is my legal name 😃. I work from home so can take time during lunch to walk your dog and after work. Or if you need me to visit and spend time at your home I can do so with might laptop. As well as helping on the weekend if needed. When having friends pets stay at my home I allow them to feel like it is also theirs. I maintain a clean home where the dog will not stumble upon things they should not eat. I do the same while staying at clients homes. Follow all rules the owner has laid out as well as ask questions for clarification when needed.

I am very careful and safety-conscious, so you can be sure I will leave your home secure and comfortable for your pets when I visit.

About: I've had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a big part of who I am. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. My own dog is now a senior and can't enjoy the long walks and hikes we used to take together, so I'd love the opportunity to spend that time with other dogs who still enjoy those adventures. I've been caring for neighbors', family friends', and relatives' dogs since I was young, giving me experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. I've also helped with puppy training and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. I'm flexible, dependable, and detail-oriented. Whether your dog needs a strict routine followed closely or a customized schedule based on their individual needs, I'll make sure they receive attentive, loving care. My goal is to treat every dog like my own and give owners peace of mind while they're away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I work part-time both from home and at a local coffee shop, but my shifts are typically only about four hours long. This makes it easy for me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, walks, and check-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so I’m happy to fit pet care into my daily routine and give your pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. When caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining their normal routine. For house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and household rules. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I take time to build trust and make sure they feel secure while you are away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for in their own familiar environment.

Due to an injury, living upstairs I’m not supposed to do much of and having to use a cane for awhile, I desperately needed help asap walking my big girl. We are active and usually walk at least two miles twice a day. I came across Daniel’s profile, nervous as I’ve never had anyone but myself walk my sometimes very hard headed strong Cane Corso. I really appreciated that his profile noted that he’s comfortable with bigger breeds and has one of his own. I can’t say enough good things about his work ethic, kindness, gentle demeanor, quick communication, punctuality, professionalism - all of it! Not to mention my dog with some serious separation anxiety by the 3rd morning was up before the alarm in the morning to put on her “necklace” and go walk with her new bestie! She now pouts and looks out the window for an hour after their walks! (ha ha thanks Daniel!) I have booked future walks with full confidence and absolutely no hesitation. I am so very very thankful for his way with my working breed dog and his help!

About: Not your average dog caretaker! I am a big dog lover! I have experience walking and taking care of dogs, puppies as well as seniors, small, medium sized and with a high energy level. Walking with your dog is not just a good exercise, it is also a good opportunity to show them attention and affection. I take a trust based approach to dogs and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved when they are with me. My goal is to leave you with a happy dog and to leave your dog with a satisfied owner. Animal care is a big part of my daily routine, and I love spending time with dogs. With my flexible schedule, I can provide walks, sitting, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and safe while their owners are away. I provide personalized care, including walks, playtime, feeding, and a safe environment. My husband and I live in a pet friendly, cozy bungalow with a lot of grass areas. Whether in my home or a client’s, I follow their routine to keep pets happy and well cared for.

Jesselle is a lovely person and dog walker! Due to an injury, I booked her for a week to help me out in the morning with my sometimes stubborn separation anxiety type Corso. Being as Jesselle had listed she has large dog experience, I felt more confident she would be able to handle my dog. She is very sweet, very kind, on time professional and my dog absolutely loved her after the very first day. Made me feel so much more confident as I navigated the help that I needed. I am very thankful and appreciated of her and highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in El Cerritos.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
