Dog Walking Harrington

“Vania is solid and reliable! My 45lb high energy pup has enjoyed their walks and we look forward to scheduling with Vania next time I neee a sitter.”

“Breckyn does a great job with my dog, who loves when she comes to take her for a walk! I would recommend Breckyn to anyone considering a dog walker.”

Jake L.

“Elyse was amazing! Our normal dog walker bailed on us last minute, so we needed someone fast. Elyse went above and beyond making sure our dogs were comfortable with her and had great communication with us. She is super sweet and our pitties love her!!!”

About: I've been caring for pets my whole life, and for the past 3+ years I've been pet sitting on and off with my mom. I currently have a 6-year-old husky and two tuxedo cats of my own, so I understand both high-energy dogs and independent cats — and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your fur babies. I treat every pet like they're my own — with patience, attention, and a whole lot of care. I'd be honored to be someone you and your pet can count on. What sets me apart: - Husky experience — I know high-energy, strong-willed breeds need real exercise, patience, and structure. I'm comfortable with big dogs, pullers, and pups who need a little extra understanding. - Cat-savvy — With two tuxedo cats at home, I get that cats have their own rules. I'm patient, gentle, and respectful of their space and quirks. - Calm and dependable — I'm the kind of sitter who shows up on time, follows your routine exactly, and keeps you updated with photos and messages so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. - Patient with all personalities — Whether your pet is shy, anxious, playful, or a little stubborn, I take the time to earn their trust and make them feel safe. - Genuine love for animals — This isn't just a job for me. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, learning their personalities, and making sure they feel loved while you're away. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of availability to give your pets the attention they deserve. I'm available for boarding and sitting on weekends, and on weekdays after 2pm. My routine is flexible, so I can usually accommodate drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays with a little notice. Whether your pup needs a mid-day walk or a cozy weekend sleepover, I'll make sure they get plenty of playtime, potty breaks, and love while you're away! In my home: Your pet will be treated like family. I have a 6-year-old husky and two tuxedo cats of my own, so I'm experienced with both high-energy dogs and independent cats. My home has a safe, pet-friendly setup with plenty of space to play, rest, and explore. I keep a close eye on everyone during introductions and always supervise interactions between pets. Your pup will get regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention — plus all the cuddles they want. In your home: I follow your routine to the letter — feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any special instructions you leave. I'm respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and make sure your pet sticks to their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you're gone. I'll send you photos and updates, so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing.

“Cara is such a great dog walker! She’s great at communicating and is very intuitive to animals. My dog looks forward to her regular walks! He says 2 paws up!!”

Geri V.

“Lynn is communicative, punctual, friendly, patient, and was great with my dog! She helped walk Yeiko while I was away and my parents said that Yeiko would jump in excitement every time she would come to pick him up, and that is always a good sign. I will definitely be rebooking with Lynn in the future :)”

“Milo loved Haylee! He even shared his favorite toy with her. Haylee is awesome - she kept me updated and sent me lots of great pics of their adventures! Will certainly be asking for her help again! Milo will be excited to see her.”

About: Gentle (or jumpy!) giants are my specialty. I’ve spent the last 15 years sharing my life with Bullmastiffs, Dogues de Bordeaux and Cane Corsos from puppyhood to passing. Medium dogs are great but the big boys and girls are my heart. All ages welcome. My home is 100% set up for dog life. I’m retired from my full-time career but still work very part-time as a CrossFit coach, and also workout daily. Mornings I’m at the gym but home between classes and all afternoon. I have time for potty in the morning and awesome walks in the afternoon. Of course, cuddle and play time included! I have a fully fenced back yard, a dog run for their business, and a big dog bed in my living room. I have plenty of sanitized toys. Basically my home is set up to share with dogs. Unfortunately, my last baby crossed the rainbow bridge last September so I’m taking this opportunity to care for yours.

About: I am experienced in providing gentle, including walks to the parks and beaches, while maintaining a calm and comfortable environment inside home and outside home. My job requires me a peculiar freedom to have a flexible schedule. I am morning person and love going in evening strolls regardless of sorting setting. In my home, I create a fun and safe space for pets, with cozy spots to relax, play, and eat. They get fresh water, regular walks, and all the love and attention they could ask for! I stick to their routine to keep them happy and stress-free. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel right at home, following their usual routine. From daily walks and playtime to feeding and cuddles, I keep everything tidy and comfy. I want them to feel relaxed and loved while their owner’s away!

“Sydney was incredible with our Waldo! Our pup often walks better with another doggy friend, and Sydney was open and flexible with scheduling a meet up for our dogs in advance of the week I desperately needed some dog walking help. She included lots of photos & updates and was reliable. My dog always seemed her happiest self when I got home after a long day. 10/10 would book again!!!”

Patrice T.

“Christine did a great job walking our dog. Will definitely book her again. She was completely focused on our dog during their walks. She is the best!”

Jennifer N.

“Saved the day last minute on Christmas Day! Thank you!”

Darcy S.

“Highly recommend without hesitation! She took extra care and time to sit with my dog that was adjusting to new schedule and was feeling mopey. I appreciated her texting me pictures too! Your pet is in good hands and caring heart with Adriana.”

About: Hey there! I’ve taken care of cats of all ages from kittens to older, previously lived with 4 cats. Currently mom to 2 healthy happy cats (one is <1 years). Additionally, I am very comfortable with giving medication & following any unique care regimen! I have good experience with taking care of dogs & puppies. I have dog sat for pitbulls, labs, terriers, chihuahuas, and many more! I’m confident I can handle most dogs & puppies. I’m very alert and safe on walks. I have been around animals all my life, grew up with my schnauzer and my border collie, so I’m confident in taking care of all kinds of dogs! I have personal connections to a vet and have seen what proper cat/dog care is like. I’m here and I’m eager to help! I’m very neat & patient, and will help anything needed for your kitties & doggos during my visit! I’m very good at following directions. I am also conversational in mandarin （中文可以）if it’s more convenient for you! Please book & I can reach out to you to ensure the best care for your fur baby! My daily routine revolves around my cats! Daily manual litter box cleaning. Daily medication for my older cat. Daily feeding. Daily change of water bowl. Daily playtime! My cats go crazy for a feather string toy (only while monitored) Gentle-care & gentle parenting for cats. If needed to be firm with dogs, I can! Only offering services at your home, this is also to ensure your pet are comfortable! I respect your personal privacy & personal items, and ensure you nothing will be touched that isn’t explicitly stated. If your dog or cat has aggressive behavior, please let me know in advance! Thank you!

About: I've been blessed to be around dogs my entire life, but my life didn't start until my pup Sancho came into this world and picked me to be his best friend. I'm very apt to the needs of any pup in my care and look forward to meeting your pup. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to spend quality time with your pup and a large fenced in yard so they can enjoy some sun. My home offers a large fenced in backyard with plenty of space for your fur baby to frolic. When sitting in your home, I'm very adaptable to your pups day to day, I find this helps ease their mind while their parent/s are away.

“Sage is always so great with Seph! They always give updates, makes sure Seph has water after, fills out the Rover card, and is just great with big dogs in general. Absolutely planning on using Sage again, they’re the best!!”

About: First time booking with Rover? Use this promo code for $20 off: QISHUZ24398 Hi there! My name's Qishu (🔑👟). I moved to Oakland in 2023 to pursue a new dream - chiropractic medicine (for animals and humans)! I'm currently a full-time student and will be until the end of 2027. I was previously a sales engineer with IBM. I'd love to help all the cat and dog mamas/papas out here just as I had in Boulder, CO and, before that, Chicago, IL. I grew up with dogs since the age of 8 - mixed breeds, yorkies, labs, pitbulls, shepherds, terriers, corgis, chihuahuas, frenchies.. the list goes on!! One of the moments that confirmed I’d always want to work with animals was in college, when I helped care for my roommate’s pitbull/red heeler mix, Bridget. She is the sweetest girl, though she struggled with anxiety and health issues. Her teeth were worn down from chewing rocks in her past life, and she’d carry a little blanket around whenever she felt distressed. With her special diet, supplements, and medications, Bridget taught me what it meant to truly care for a soul who’d been through so much. That experience deepened my love and empathy for all animals in a way that’s stayed with me ever since. I would be honored to give your pets the love, exercise, and attention they deserve while you're away! I'm a huge advocate for providing pets with a great quality of life - more than just basic food and shelter. I'm happy to do any small extraneous tasks like getting the mail, watering plants, etc. Just let me know in advance! For my cat parents out there: Because of my 3 kids (Kina, Nemr, & Freyja) and a short stint fostering, I'm seasoned in all things cat/kitten: socializing, changing litter, oral admin of meds, treating fleas, bathing, nail trimming, de-shedding, training (sit, high-five, stand, turn-around, kiss). Since I’m a full-time student, my Rover calendar is updated to work with my in-person class and clinic shifts. That said, many families are comfortable having my partner, Ian, join when he’s available—which allows for a little more flexibility with scheduling. It’s a wonderful setup because Ian works from home (and is basically a dog at heart!), so your pets will almost always have company and care. Rest assured, it will only be me caring for your pets unless we’ve discussed and agreed otherwise. I’m also happy to bring Ian to our meet & greet and provide references upon request! I am responsible for creating a safe space for pets in their home. I make sure that they are comfortable and their boundaries are respected and understood with the guidance of their body language and the wisdom from their humans. All animals deserve patience, love, and empathy.

“She is awesome!”

About: I will treat your fur baby with tender, loving care. Your animal or animals will always be safe and comfortable under my care and supervision. I'm currently working part-time and semi-retired, so I will have plenty of time and flexibility to help with your animal care needs. Let me know how I can help! I will be very clean and respectful while in any client's home and treat your home and your pets as if they were my own.

“Melanie is great! She takes good care of my dog! She is always very punctual and follows all the instructions. My dog was really happy when she took her out! Definitely will choose her again next time!”
