“Kate is really great with my puppy. She always sends pictures and gives updates which is appreciated while I’m at work. Otis loves to walk with her 3x a week and always comes back happy!”
“She is an amazing pet sitter! She is great with my dog, is very reliable, and I always know that my dog is safe with her and having fun! She walks my dog, throws the ball for her and lets her get energy out and use the bathroom while I’m at work and I always know she’s in good hands. She’s great at communication and is really flexible about what time she comes over. I highly recommend her!!”
About: I have been caring for animals for 15 years of my life. From dogs to cats or rabbits and fish. I have had a range of experience between differing species. I grew up caring for 2 Chihuahuas, 1 Siberian Husky, 1 Bull Mastiff and 8 cats. Whether it's playtime, long walks or evening cuddles I make sure each pet feels at home with me. I have 3 days off during the week when my 10 year old is at school. The other week days I work in the early morning and am available for the rest of the day. Weekends I am available in the morning. So I have a bit of free time to care for your loved ones. In your home I will feed your pets according to their schedule. Refresh water and food bowls. Let dogs out for bathrooms breaks either on a walk or in backyard per your instructions. Provide stimulation for your animals with playtime and walks around the neighborhood.

“Siiri was so great with our dog! She was patient and encouraging, and somehow handled all his idiosyncrasies with grace. She was also easy to communicate and schedule with. We will definitely hire her again.”

“Carmen has been a terrific dog walker for our two hounds. They were practically smiling in the photos she’d send us each day. 5 stars and would definitely recommend to anyone in the Davis area looking for assistance with their pets.”
“Sydney was absolutely amazing and reliable. We trusted her to take care of our Moxxi because she has experience with reactive dogs. Also helps that our dog loves her! We appreciate the help, and I will not hesitate to reach out again whenever we're ever working long days. Thank you!”
About: Hi, I’m Savannah! As a lifelong animal lover and proud Irish Setter owner, I know that high-energy pups need more than just a quick turn around the block. With over 3 years of pet sitting experience, I bring plenty of enthusiasm, reliability, and love to every single visit. I’m a fast walker, so if your dog loves a brisk pace to burn off energy, they’ll get a great workout with me! If they prefer extra playtime or just hanging out and getting belly rubs, I'm all about making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. What you can expect from every visit: Full-Care Routine: Fresh water refills after every walk, feeding on your schedule, and taking care of any extra pet chores while I’m there. Fun & Play: Dedicated play time and total attention tailored to your dog's personality. Pupdates: Punctual progress reports and adorable, high-quality photos so you can see exactly how much fun your pet is having! Whether your dog needs a fast-paced walk or a cozy check-in with lots of affection, I’ll treat them like family. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! I’m available any day of the week at any time! Communication with clients is a big thing for me so if that ever changes you will know! In-Home Care & Playtime Instant Warm-Up & Attention: Start each visit with enthusiasm, giving the dog immediate affection, belly rubs, and positive energy to build comfort and excitement. Targeted Energy Burn: Use interactive toys (like fetch or tug) and active play sessions to drain extra energy before settling them down, keeping them mentally and physically stimulated. Basic Needs & Chores: Always double-check water bowls for fresh refills (especially after active play), handle scheduled feedings, and take care of any quick pet-related tidy-ups before leaving. On Walks Tailored Pace: Maintain a brisk, fast walk to maximize physical exertion for energetic dogs, while adjusting to sniff breaks so they get necessary mental enrichment. Constant Engagement: Keep eyes on the dog at all times, talking to them, keeping them moving, and managing leash safety around distractions. Post-Walk Wind Down: Bring them back inside, offer fresh water, towel off paws if needed, and let them cool off in a safe, comfortable spot. Client Communication Photo Updates: Snap clear, adorable pictures during play or mid-walk to send with your visit report. Detailed Notes: Leave a quick summary letting the owner know how much energy was burned, how much water/food was taken, and any fun moments from the visit.
“Nora was really kind and found some time for a last minute request from me. She’s been extremely responsive and responsible. Anika loves her! Will definitely keep her on my go-to list for the futyre”
About: Hello, I have always been an animal lover since visiting my Grandma's farm as a kid. My first job for that I held for 4 years in High School was at a Vet hospital, where I fed, cleaned, walked, cared for and groomed the boarding dogs and cats. As an adult, I have loved animal watching/walking for friends and family. As a volunteer, I fed and cleaned the farm animals at a non-profit ranch for autistic children. I work full time in the medical field and enjoy being active so I am excited to get outside for walks and visit your pets on my days off. I am no able to own pets where I live, so I would love to be able to care for yours. Thank You, Megan I am available multiple days a week to walk and drop-in care for pets. My work schedule changes each week but I am able to scheduled services a week in advance. I would care for a pet at a client's home. I do not have a yard but would be happy to travel to the pet's home to socialize and make sure that they are feeling safe and comfortable.
“I contacted Matthew to do a couple of walks for my dog. From the start he was very attentive and polite. He took the time to meet and greet us and create a bond with Jackie (our dog). We had a great experience and highly recommend Matthew to other pet parents.”
“I couldn’t ask for anything more from Xitlalli! From the moment I met her, it was evident that she is very knowledgeable and comfortable with big dogs. My dog Texas loved her instantly, and I knew right then that he will be in good hands! During the session, she was very communicative and sent me updates on their activities, which calmed my worries. She is the best dog walker and would definitely request her again and again!”
About: I’m a pet owner myself, so I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new. I’m patient and really pay attention to each pet’s personality and routine. Whether they’re super playful, shy, cuddly, or prefer their own space, I’ll let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, litter box cleaning, and lots of cuddles if they want them! I’ll also send plenty of photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’m available anytime and any day during the summer. I have a flexible schedule, so I can spend plenty of time caring for your pets. For morning visits, please let me know in advance! Pet’s safety and emotions are my top priority. In a client’s home, I will follow the pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I clean up after them, make sure they have fresh water, and provide plenty of attention and affection. I’m respectful of the home space and always leave it as I found it. If pets are staying with me, they’ll have a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can relax, play, and feel comfortable.
“Michelle was great with my puppy Ziggy. She showed up on time, stayed patient with Ziggy, and responded quickly to my last minute bookings. She even came back to walk him after I forgot to leave the spare key outside for her. I will definitely continue to book with her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Macero
Michelle is amazing! She really saved the day for me and my somewhat anxious/reactive dog. My dog was too scared to go out with another dog walker leaving me wondering how I'd go to work with my husband out of town. Michelle was so gentle and kind with my dog, and helped me come up with a plan to get my dog comfortable enough with her to go on a walk. Michelle even moved her work schedule around because she knew I was in a bind. Now my dog LOVES her. I get pictures of such a happy dog when she comes to visit. I'm beyond grateful!
I last minute needed a dog walker during my sit due to work obligations, and Quinn responded incredibly fast and came through right away. She relieved so much stress for me and was such a huge help. I’m so grateful, and she was absolutely incredible with Marshall too!
This girl came through big time!! Was available at short notice, was willing to work with my spazy dog and was so nice, sweet and very easy to communicate with. My dog got everything he needed bc of her while I was on an important trip to see family.I’m very grateful!! 💛

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 El Macero. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
