Kira is great with communication which I appreciate so much! She brings great energy when we text and is very attentive to my dog’s needs. My dog is a ball of energy and she handles her so well. I truly appreciate her kindness and patience with my dog.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and the genuine care I have always shown them. I have grown up caring for many different types of pets and understand the importance of being patient, attentive, and responsible with every animal in my care. I have also helped care for homeless and stray animals by providing them with food, water, and, when possible, a safe place to stay. Growing up, I enjoyed caring for the wildlife around my home as well, including feeding ducks, birds, and frogs by the lake in my backyard. These experiences have taught me to be compassionate and attentive to animals of all kinds. I will always take the time to learn each pet's individual personality, routine, and needs so they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM and Saturdays from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Outside of my work schedule, I have flexibility and am happy to accommodate pet care needs at various times throughout the week. I am available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, walks, and sitting, and I am willing to work with each pet owner's schedule to provide reliable and attentive care. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to making sure each pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need. I have had many different pets throughout my life and have always cared for them with patience, responsibility, and lots of love. I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I make sure to provide them with the attention and care they need to feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I have also cared for stray animals by providing them with food and water and, when possible, giving them a safe place to stay. Growing up, I even enjoyed caring for the wildlife around my home, such as feeding ducks, birds, and frogs by the lake in my backyard. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: Caring for animals has been a meaningful part of my life for many years, including raising and caring for my own beloved dog, Nina, for over 16 years through every stage of her life, from energetic younger years to the extra patience and attentiveness that come with senior care. In addition to caring for my own pet, I’ve regularly looked after dogs for friends, both in my home and in theirs, and I also have experience caring for cats. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I believe consistency is incredibly important when caring for animals. Whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, or simply respecting the structure pets are used to, I make it a priority to follow your care instructions closely. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, organized, attentive to detail, and committed to keeping pets safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also believe communication matters, so you can expect thoughtful updates and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: to provide reliable, attentive care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week, including accommodating a variety of pet care routines and scheduling needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I take scheduling commitments seriously so owners can feel confident their pets are being cared for on time and according to the routines they know and trust. My goal is to provide reliable care that fits seamlessly into both your schedule and your pet’s daily routine. Having been a devoted pet owner myself, I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you feel completely comfortable trusting with your pet’s care. I know pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I believe great pet care starts with paying close attention to details and following each owner’s instructions carefully, whether that involves feeding schedules, walk preferences, medications, household rules, or recognizing changes in a pet’s behavior. I work hard to maintain the routines pets are familiar with so they feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety is always a priority, both during visits and on walks, and I’m attentive to ensuring pets remain safe, comfortable, and properly supervised at all times. I also believe communication matters, so you can expect regular updates and check-ins for added peace of mind. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space, attentive to security, and committed to leaving your home exactly as I found it.

About: Hi! I’m a full-time online college student with a super flexible schedule, so I have plenty of availability to care for your pets. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my entire life (from dogs of all sizes and breeds to cats, birds, and even bearded dragons) so it’s safe to say I’m a huge animal lover. 🤍 I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I always come prepared with the essentials, including extra poop bags, paw wipes, a portable water bowl, and even a backup leash just in case of an emergency. I do require a meet & greet before most bookings because I love getting to know both you and your pet! It gives me the chance to learn their routine, personality, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide the best care possible. That said, I completely understand that emergencies happen, so I’m happy to make exceptions for last-minute bookings when needed. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! I’m a full-time online college student, which gives me a very flexible schedule and open availability throughout the week. Whether you need a daily walk, drop-in visit, or last-minute help, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I understand life gets busy, and I’m here to make caring for your pet one less thing you have to worry about! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions during our meet & greet. I also come prepared with emergency essentials like an extra leash, poop bags, paw wipes, and a portable water bowl, so we’re ready for anything. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is in great hands.

About: I've been caring for animals informally for years. I had my own fur baby, Charlie, who was so much more than a pet—he was my best friend for 13 years. He taught me that when it comes to caring for animals, the most important qualities are patience, consistency, empathy, and understanding that no two pets are the same. Since Charlie's passing, I've loved helping friends and family care for their furry companions, whether dogs or cats. One of my favorite parts is getting to know each pet's unique personality and what makes them tick. Whether it's long walks, chasing toys, cuddles on the couch, or simply enjoying each other's company, I love meeting pets where they are and giving them the care and attention they need. Spending time with furry friends has truly become one of my favorite ways to spend the day. I'm comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, keeping them active, entertained, and sticking to their routines. I also have experience giving oral medications when they can be hidden in food or treats. A little about me—I'm a licensed mental health counselor, so patience, compassion, and empathy come naturally to me. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else's care. I'll treat them with the same love, attention, and respect that I gave my Charlie boy. Whether you're away on vacation or simply at work for the day, I'll make sure to keep you posted with plenty of pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. I work full-time four days a week, leaving me three days each week to hang out with your furry family members! I'm available Thursdays through Saturdays for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of love and attention. I am also available some Wednesdays in the evenings! I’ll be sure to keep my availability updated! At this time, I'm offering dog walks and drop-in visits in your home. While I'm not currently able to provide boarding, I'm more than happy to come to your pet's familiar environment, where they can feel safe, comfortable, and stick to their normal routine. Whether it's a walk around the neighborhood, playtime in the backyard, a potty break, fresh food and water, or simply a lil extra love and time hanging out while you're away, I'll make sure your pet receives the care and attention they deserve. I'll also treat your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I'll always leave things just as I found them.

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life! I’ve cared for my own pups for over 11 years, including my two Labradors—one who even zips around in a wheelchair 🐾.

About: I have been around animals ever since I was born. I have had 4 dogs and 9 cats throughout my life. I have been trusted to watch family, friends, and neighbors pets. I love going on walks with dogs and working on basic commands such as sit, lay down, and paw. I enjoy playing with cats and giving them all of the pets if the cat seems like they want them. I can’t wait to help you take care of your pets! I have a pretty open schedule so I am available to take care of your pets throughout the day, any day of the week. I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets. When on walks I’ll make sure your dog is close to me when other dogs are present and make sure interactions with other dogs are limited to insure your dog’s safety. When it’s just your dog, I will give them time to sniff and go to the bathroom as they please. Inside of the home I’ll make sure they don’t have access to items that will harm them. If there are multiple dogs I’ll make sure they are fed separately and monitored. I’ll also monitor them while playing to make sure everyone is safe.

Laura was a great dog walker for our dog Mischka, an elderly husky. We hired Laura to walk her several times over thanksgiving while we were away. We got prompt updates and photos and were very happy with Mischka’s care. Laura also fed her and she is a notoriously picky dog and stubborn about eating her meals so we were grateful for Laura’s patience with our feeding instructions. We were absolutely out at ease on our night away and would hire Laura again! She’s responsive, responsible and took great care of our dog.

About: Taking care of pets fills my heart with joy. I'm really aware of the owner's preference of care for their pets and go above and beyond to deliver what they expect from a caring and professional sitter to provide their peace of mind. I'm a full time office manager that can spend early mornings 7am- 8:30am with your fur babies, 12:30pm-2:30pm for lunch breaks and after 6:30pm on week days. Weekends can be consulted. I look forward on making your pet feel as happy as they can be while following your care instructions through and meeting your expectations and providing you peace of mind.

Samantha was punctual, nice and sweet. She did a good job with our big dog for the first time. Unfortunately we did not establish beforehand that she would be bringing a guest with her into our house and I was just not comfortable that it wasn’t communicated upfront and not professional. Since walkers should all be background-verified before entering someone’s private property, not knowing in advance did not work for me as it was a liability and breech of trust for us. She is nice girl though I hope she can communicate that in the future to potentially have more repeat clients.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hacienda Village

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Hacienda Village on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 7,598 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hacienda Village. 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 Hacienda Village. 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 Hacienda Village.

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 Hacienda Village. On Rover:

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
