“Caitlin goes above and beyond the call of duty and it shows! My doggo is super attached to me so wasn’t so excited to go on a walk with her on their first day. Because she took the time to build his trust and spends extra time with him to build an alliance, I have nothing but great things to say about her!”
“Professional, on time, excellent communication before booking, meet and greet, walking, after walking, friendly, personable. I booked again. Bodhi LOVED her. Highly recommend Riley.”

Use code: waiw96209 for $40 off your first booking with me 🦴 Hey there, I’m excited to be your new pet sitter! 🐾 I’ve sat for cats, dogs, fish and grew up riding horses and tending goats. I’m open to sitting for more types of animals. I worked and volunteered at the Oakland Zoo for 8 years. In 2021, graduated from Cal Poly SLO. I’m an avid daily walker who enjoys volunteering for the Elm St. Dog Park! Both your home and furry friend will be treated with care and respect. I love all animals and treat them as if they were my own best friends. I walk, feed, play, give pets, hugs, and lots of attention! For house sits, I can take in mail, trash bins, etc. I’ll communicate with you often and send photos. You can trust your pup is in safe and caring hands with me. Thanks for sniffing me! 🐾 I’m currently taking on new clients so feel free to reach out! My full time and attention is dedicated to your animal. Your dog will sniff and lead the way!

I respectfully request wifi connection if needed.
“I'm a type A worry wart when it comes to my furry family members. I am so very thankful that Kayla was able to help us navigate a last minute request to look in on my dog and cat. Kayla was super sweet with both our dog and cat (our dog was super sad to have them only for visits!) and we are so thankful for their help!”
“Met up with Hannah for a meet and greet with my dog and she was great. My husky is a tough guy to walk sometimes if you lack confidence but she took him on and had full control. I’m excited to continue to work with Hannah and for her and my dog to build a relationship. Can’t wait for the next walk!”
About: I grew up with animals and have always had a special connection with them. I have worked with animals of all walks of life in an animal shelter & truly enjoy getting to witness their success. When working at the animal shelter I used to take dogs on walks and to the play pens where they would socialize with potential new families and other dogs. While they were in the play pens it was my job to ensure things ran smoothly and to deescalate any situations that might arise. Being able to celebrate in an animals victories and see how much they have grown & learned over time is like nothing else! I am wholly committed to anything your pet may need during our time together, no interruptions unless there is an emergency. If you have any questions about availability outside of my specified time frames please feel free to reach out and I will see what I can do! I would never do something to put your animals in harms way, I am incredibly thorough and will follow any specified instructions. If I have any questions about your pets needs I will be sure to seek clarification before taking any actions.

So it’s perfect for a walk and there is a dog park nearby
About: I’ve had dogs and cat for the last 7-8 years. They have been so good to us and we’ve enjoyed them more than I imagined. I have a business that I’ve owned for seven years and I’m able to make my own schedule. Also, my homeschooled kids are home and willing to help if I ever need it. I have done 20+ years of babysitting and childcare in my home and other peoples homes. Plus, I’ve had clients that I have worked for and have trusted me with their keys to their home for seven years.
About: Not only have I had dogs and cats as family members for the last 40 years, I've taken care of friends and family's dogs and cats. I was blessed to have Max for 17 years, a gentle boy who was blind and deaf in his senior years. If your pet has special needs I am confident I can give them the proper care needed. I currently have 2 dogs, a poodle pup who is an adorable and fun little rascal and a sweet terrior mix who is my walking buddy. They will be cared for at home by my husband if I'm taking care of your pet. I'm very active and happy to be retired. I love spending time walking my dogs and being with the 24/7 which of course is not possible when you're working or traveling. I understand how important your best friend is in good hands while you're at work or away and I'll be available to walk your dog as needed. My drop by visits include feeding, fresh water, potty and exercise breaks. I'll follow your instructions and "house rules" as requested. If your dog or cat has special needs or requires medication they are in good hands. If your dog likes to take long walks or fetch a ball at the dog park I'm in!

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, dogs, cats and guinea pigs. I’ve had puppies and I’ve have senior dogs as well. I am looking into completing a vet tech program so I can work with animals as my career. I work part time only at the moment, I have plenty of time to work with animals as my hours as fairly low at my current job. In my home, I have one dog, one cat, two guinea pigs, I am open to staying in clients homes as well though. I do live in a condo, so there isn’t a backyard, however I do walk my dog every hour or two.
About: While going to college I walked approximately 10 dogs (individually) per month with occasional 3 dogs at a time. I’m comfortable with all size dogs; Chihuahua to Great Danes. If the dog likes to run, I’m up for that too. I like to be active and I know some dogs need a good run to get out their energy. I’m open to pet care. My house is pet friendly, and has a backyard enclosed with a 6 ft fence, gate that locks and a grassy area. I care for pets as if they were my own. I can give baths, make sure they are fed on time - including medication, and bathroom breaks, and most importantly walks or runs.

Since I work from home I am able to spend the majority of my day with pets as my schedule usually allows me to have a lot of flexibility.
About: I’ve had a few steady pet sitting/walking jobs in the last few years. I worked as a dog walker for an amazing woman in Malibu for her 5 dogs and walked 5x a week ~3.5 hours a day. I’ve also done many overnight stays in people’s homes for their cats/dogs when they are out for weekend getaways or longer vacations. I have my own dog (Stormy, Chow 2.5 years old) and absolutely love her to death! I’d love to spend time with your pets whether they just want companionship, walks, playtime, or hiking/beach adventures. I’ve had experience with high energy, low energy, various breeds, you name it. Send me a message if you have any questions to see if I would be a good fit for your fur baby. I am a full-time graduate student at Cal Poly but will have free time in between to do some dog walking or drop in visits. Coming into your home I will treat your pets just as I would treat my own, with all the love and care in the world!(: Each individual circumstance depends on the client’s and pet’s needs and will be discussed on a case-by-case basis.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Grover Beach
I was extremely impressed with Riley. From the moment she greeted my dog. I knew that she was gonna be a good fit. Our meet and greet let me to believe that she’s outstanding. She asked extremely valuable questions. She’s very well organized. I would highly recommend her for anything pet related.
My rescue dog knows where his home is, and has consistently refused to leave with new dog walkers; he lays down on the driveway and refuses to go. We could get him to go with me following or by leaving a treat trail. He surprised me by joyously leaving with Sarah. She had the enthusiasm that distracted him, plus treats, and he trotted off on his walk. I’m impressed.
Grace was always punctual, positive and truly enjoyed being with my pet. She was organized and worked out times and dates with me in advance of her walks. I recommend her highly to anyone who is looking for an energetic person to care for their animal. Please contact me, I can’t sing her praises enough.
I couldn’t recommend Shawn enough! He took such great care of my dog, was a great communicator, reliable, and sent updates everyday. I could tell my dog was in great hands and he looked very happy in every video or photo update I received. I would definitely hire Shawn again. Thank you, Shawn!
Met up with Hannah for a meet and greet with my dog and she was great. My husky is a tough guy to walk sometimes if you lack confidence but she took him on and had full control. I’m excited to continue to work with Hannah and for her and my dog to build a relationship. Can’t wait for the next walk!

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.

- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
