Dog Walkers in Hillcrest, CA

“Yasmine did great with Olive! This was my first time using Rover as an owner and Olive’s first interaction with someone outside her family. Yasmine was patient and understanding with Olive when she was unsure and barking at her, I am very grateful for her patience. I am also happy to book her for future walks!”

Your pet will get dedicated 1-on-1 care, constant supervision, and loving companionship all day long. My priority is to maintain a balanced environment while adding a touch of extra fun into their life.

From pet grooming salons both studio and mobile, pet boarding, pet sitting, dog walking, I have done it all professionally. I became a full time mom two years ago and I'm now i'm starting to have some free time to provide services again.

“Every dog loves enthusiastic playmates. Phillip fits the description. He is consistently professional, friendly, helpful and always right on time. I need to feel that my older dog is safe when going out walking in our neighborhood, the city. Phillip "brings it", when he comes to see Colette...she feels at home with him and Phillip leaves the pictures to prove it. :-).”

“Our two dogs love Ciara! They get so excited when they see her because they know that she always takes them for fun walks. Ciara is comfortable with all dogs, even our 80lb dog who can sometimes be a handful to walk.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats since i was an early teen. I’ve trained and kept them healthy and happy. Currently i have two cats and a husky that are very well behaved, non-reactive and happy. I’m a recent uni graduate who loves animals. I love taking care of them and staying active. I’m very easygoing and kind. I put a lot of effort into everything i do. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for dogs to walk around while inside. The house is very pet safe, no choking hazards around. I also live in a safe neighborhood that is perfect for walks, with a couple of parks around for dogs to get their sniffing and running done.

About: I believe that a happy dog in the home is essential and a precursor to a happy life overall, and I strive to bring the same attentiveness and care that I share with my own pup to any pets I have the privilege of taking care of through my services on Rover. When we meet the basic needs of our precious companions throughout the day, we have more freedom to bond with them, and them with us, and that’s where I come in! I want to help you meet your home pet care needs and goals so you can feel confident that when you come home after a busy day, you are coming home to a dog or a cat that is happy and well taken care of. I want to ensure that your pet’s routines stay intact, that they get plenty of exercise when needed, that they stay safe, and it is a joy to me to provide that service! I work from home, and my day is already built around caring for a dog. Morning walk first thing, breakfast, play, a walk around 5:30 for dinner, evening walk before bed, with attention and rest woven in between. I follow instructions exactly, keep your pet's routine intact, send photo updates, and treat your home and your dog's space the way I'd want someone to treat mine. On walks, I match the pace to the dog, calm dogs get a relaxed walk, energetic ones we stay moving, and I stay attentive to reactivity triggers and adjust accordingly.

“She is a God sent! She handle our cane Corso mix veey well. He is a big strong boy and understands the breed. Patient, kind, professional and attentive.”

About: Working from home in an apartment every day, I am in need of a canine coworker to take regular lunch walks and gossip about work drama. But really; I grew up with dogs, had my first job at a vet clinic at age 16 (the reality of which crushed my dreams of becoming a veterinarian), and daydream about pet sitting my family’s albino, lopsided, senior doggo who sadly lives a 6 hour drive away (seen in photos). Taking your dog on a sunshine walk through the park (and even better, having them stay the night!) would make me the most joyous girl in the neighborhood. I’m happy to help! I work remotely with fairly flexible hours. My work hours are typically Monday through Friday, 9AM-5PM; but I can easily take time to walk your dog around the block. Easy peasy. Seeing as I am home the majority of the week, having your dog stay at my apartment would be a breeze for both of us as I am able to attend to your pup’s frequent needs. I am responsible, reliable, and communicative. I commit to my responsibilities and am dependable. I would care for your pet with attention, love, and care. While my apartment is small, I also need frequent outdoor breaks and would be easily able to incorporate your dog's outdoor needs with my own. My home is up a flight of stairs so your dog would need to be able to go up and down stairs safely. I also live with my boyfriend and so your dog has to be comfortable around men.

“Lilly is a great communicator, professional, dependable, and caring. She is very patient and sweet with my little dog which I very much appreciate. Highly recommend!”

“Rosalinda is an incredible dog walker and has been so great with our energetic 9 month old golden retriever. She is responsive, friendly, and keeps us updated on how walks go. Highly recommend!”

About: I have owned and cared for both dogs and cats, have been around animals all my life, and would love to care for all types of pets! I have a lot of flexibility these days (post-grad life), so I’m willing and able to handle nearly all pet-care needs! *note on availability: I also work part time, and am not able to create an hourly availability in the rover app. Here is when I’m unavailable the following 2 weeks. Any other days not mentioned here, I am available all day!: Tue 6/9: 9-1pm Wed 6/10: 7-4pm Thur 6/11: 8-5pm Sat 6/13: 8-5pm Mon 6/15: 7-4pm Tue 6/16: 7-4pm Wed 6/17: 9-6pm I’m currently enjoying the post-grad school life, and have a lot of free time and flexibility to care for your animals. I also have a car, so am very mobile! I am more than happy to care for your pets in their home, and will ensure that they feel comfortable and maintain what they are used to/their routines.

About: I’ve been pet sitting ever since I was little. Friends and family often trust their pets to me while they are away. I specialize in elderly dogs and have lots of patience when it come to dogs with special needs or medications I work part time at a coffee shop and go to school part time as well. I will be able throughout the week but mostly Thursday-Sunday I have lots of personal experience with elderly dogs and have a special place in my heart for them. Having a dog that was diagnosed with Cushings and severe separation anxiety, I am well equipped to handle medical needs or just provide comfort for any animal who needs it.

“Emily was great with my dog! She took him for a walk and updated me with photos. She had great communication from the time I booked her and overall very happy! 10/10 recommend.”

About: I've had dogs since I was young and have trained all of them personally. I have a bachelor's in psychology and a master's in marine science (focusing on animal behavior). I have experience dog sitting for various breeds and sizes. I'm passionate about giving dogs the best life they can have, with lots of love and positive reinforcement. I love being outside, so I will give your pet plenty of time outside to stretch their legs and get some fresh air! My soul-dog Kano passed in December so I have extra love to give to other animals now. I work mostly remotely and may have to leave for a few hours at a time once in a while, but I can generally give your pet a lot of time and attention with flexible hours. I will make sure to strictly follow any house rules and existing training goals while in the home. Safety and consistency are always a priority.

“Caitlin did an amazing job!! She got our pup to walk for a full hour which is such an incredibly huge help! She was so warm when we met her and we can tell from the photos that our babies adore her. Highly recommend!”

About: I've grown up with dogs in my family for most of my life. Starting in 3rd grade, I had 2 bull terriers, a jack russell and shitzu mix, and once moved out of my parents' home a golden retriever and goldendoodles that I helped raise from birth. I work full-time, so weekends will work best. My weekends are not typically busy. I'm also available in the evening on weekdays barring any appointments/obligations. Please let me know your request details as soon as possible so I can accommodate. I am flexible according to your dogs' needs. So long as I have clear instructions for how to access/provide food and water, a suitable space inside/outside for potty breaks, etc. I also really like affectionate dogs and will give them as much pets as they need.
