About: I work/ have been working at a doggy daycare for over a year now, and I’ve been near dogs my whole life. I really enjoy spending time with dogs and would love the chance to spend time with your pup! I’m currently working part time, so I have lots of time to spend with your baby. We will have so much fun together! No matter what type of dog you have i promise we will have a great time 😁 I am a very active sitter, we will mostly spend the day playing with toys (until hes tired) then we’ll eat and watch a show, obviously taking potty breaks when needed.
“rozi was awesome! super friendly, more importantly kept mocha happy, and sent a ton of photos of her from her walk. mocha had a great walk and warmed up to her fast. would absolutely book again!”
About: I have a small maltese named Ronald that I love and care for deeply. We go on daily walks around our neighborhood and to the park and to get all the pup cups of course! I taught him a few tricks as well :) I work from home as a mental health therapist so my schedule is super flexible! I love getting steps and going on walks and hikes in my free time :) I also love to cuddle and play with cute animals when I can I keep your pup company & create a safe environment for playing, sleeping, and hanging out. Tell me any additional instructions to extra care and safety specific to your pet
About: Hello! I am a part time web designer and full timer carer or my geriatric cats. One I have to wrestle (nicely) to give her meds, and the other is a kind boy who lets me stick needles in his back 3 times a week for fluid treatment. At this time I only do once-daily drop in visits in in the afternoon or evening. I have cared for pets from as large to big drooling Great Pyrenees to blind border collies. Happy to check up on and walk your dog for whatever they need! I have limited experience with medications but am happy to give it a try if your dog has special medication requirements. I work from home so am generally available most afternoons and evenings for check ups. I may not be available on days I have to take my own pet to the vet, but otherwise I'm happy to help out! For cats, a typical drop-in will include litter box cleaning, playtime, food and water refill, and a photo sent to you. For dogs, this will vary on time of day (eg if you need them crated or not at night) but will consist of a walk, poop scoop, food and water refill, and a photo sent to you.
About: I've cared for my family and friends' pets while they were away, including overnight stays. I'm also skilled at managing special dietary needs for pets. I am ready to work and can start onboarding any day of the week, from Monday to Sunday. My spacious yard allows me to care for multiple pets simultaneously. I have a big house with a large gated fence, and my roommate has a friendly dog that can either relax outside or indoors with your pet .
“Charlie loved his walk today! Am sure he had fun sniffing about - he always enjoys his walks with you and am glad you’re able to help me with that especially when am too busy at work. 🐶🤗👍🏻 Thanks again Clarisse for taking care of my fur baby!”
About: I have walked neighbors dogs in the neighborhood since I was 13. I cat sat my neighbors cat while she was out of town. I have always grown up with a dog or cat in the house with me picking up every stray i saw and got in trouble every time but I couldn’t leave them I had to find their home. I love all animals as they are my own! I have 4 chihuahua/pugs names Stella Frankie Chloe and Luca. I have two cats at my husband’s parents house named Stoney and Pumpkin I’m available pretty much anytime! I have a 2year old daughter that I can find someone to watch her while I do drop ins and walks! My dogs have crates they go into and they stay at my house But I would rather drop in and walks or let out or feed your animals.
“Janette is an excellent dog walker. She is always on time, very responsible and very loving to my 127 pound German Shepherd who took to her immediately. He is so excited when she comes. I would highly recommend her services. She walks my dog twice a week.”
About: I have been taking care and training my dogs since a young age. I have also watched many types of dogs for a couple of years now I take my dog to exercise and work with him twice a day and i take him for pee breaks also when it is warmer so he doesn’t have such a long break. I do a lot of mental work due to his breed and make sure i feed him the correct food and treats to keep him healthy. I make sure they are comfortable with me and make sure i can care and take care of them as much as possible. I will and have never stepped over an animals boundary and due to the way my dog is i am very careful with dogs and understanding of what owners and my self needs with dogs
About: I offer a calm, in-home environment for cats and small dogs, along with drop-in visits and dog walking. I have experience caring for different personalities and needs—from shy or anxious cats to playful, energetic puppies and other animals that need consistent, attentive care. For boarding, your pet will stay in a clean, low-stress apartment where I keep a consistent routine with feeding, potty breaks, and litter box care. I primarily board cats and occasionally small, well-behaved dogs, so the space stays quiet and manageable—ideal for pets that don’t do well in busy environments. I also provide drop-in visits for all kinds of animals, including cats, dogs, and other small pets. During visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, litter or cage cleaning, playtime, and general check-ins to make sure your pet is comfortable and doing well. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks based on your dog’s energy level and routine. I’m very attentive to behavior and comfort, and I always aim to make pets feel secure while you’re away. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I work outside of home during the day but am available for the rest of the evening to take care of your fur baby. Weekends I am primarily home soaking up cuddles from my cats and other animals I’m boarding. I provide a clean, calm, and low-stress environment and only take a limited number of pets at a time so each one gets proper attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions, and I monitor behavior to make sure they’re comfortable. In my home, I separate pets when needed and prioritize safe introductions. For drop-ins and walks, I make sure pets are secure, handled safely, and that your home is left exactly as I found it. I also send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and doing well.
“Wow, Emily is truly incredible! She was so flexible with times and was able to fit my little pup in on such short notice! Ivy absolutely loved her and we got the best photos from their walks! I would recommend Emily to anyone. I can tell she truly loves doing this and I’m so happy to have found her!!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for most of my life everything from farm animals to of course dogs and cats. I’ve always had a great ability to befriend and understand friends dogs and cats as well as those around my neighborhood. While I am very tall (6’5) most animals quickly see through my height and realize I am not a threat to them in any way. I work from home and set my own schedule so I can be there to take care of your pets whenever they need it day or night! I have a great ability to read most animals expressions both subtle and direct and I’m happy to do whatever is needed for them to feel safe protected and loved
About: I've trained dogs my whole life! Love teaching them and creating a safe and loving environment for both you and them, it brings me joy I currently work at a school with special needs kids! I'm off at 2pm, from there on i spend my time training furry friends . I have a fenced house! 2 pets that will accompany your pet. I train them from behaviors to attention to making sure they are safe
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. In fact, I took my very first steps with a Rottweiler named Oso by my side! Growing up around these large breeds has helped me plenty with hands-on experience and confidence with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Over the years, I’ve cared for and loved several dogs, including a German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, and currently a Malinois mix and two husky mixes. I’m very familiar with the energy, exercise needs, and unique personalities that come with active breeds. While I have lots of experience with larger dogs, I absolutely adore small dogs too. I want make sure that every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient with shy or timid pups and always take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, running around, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m their new best friend ☺️. If you have a high-energy dog that needs to burn off some extra energy, I’m more than ready to help tire them out with plenty of exercise and fun 🤩 ! ❗️I’m available all weekdays and holidays! Although, i’m in college, studying Administration of Justice, and depends on my schedule for the semester since classes may vary on my availability. but it doesn’t mean i won’t make time for your babies! I do prefer for your animals to be treated at your home, because my dogs can be protective of our home and won’t want to put any animals in harms way.
About: My experience starts from growing up in a household of pets where I have watched over and cared for many types of animals most of my childhood from dogs and cats to small animals like rabbits, turtles, frogs, and fishes. In my youth, I have volunteered caring for the reptiles and rodents at my elementary school and for the Boys and Girls Club of Tustin where I have experience feeding dried and live bait such as bugs, insects, and mice. My further experience in my animal caretaking takes place at home. I have in the past cared for my dog and fishes in my adolescence years walking, feeding, and giving medication when needed. I currently have new animals companion like my beautiful dog, cat, birds, and fishes where have been with them since their youth. I recently have more experience raising young animals and recently have raised hatchling, which are currently growing into beautiful healthy chickens. I have much experience bathing dogs (including flea shampoo, special allergy shampoo, and dry shampoo), brushing animal hair, applying topical flea treatment for dogs and cats, giving medicine such as tablets and creams, dog walking, and feeding. I also have dog sitting experience with family members who needed sitting for a few days. What sets me apart from others is not only my years of experience but my love of animals making them happy, thank you. Although I do have pets of my own, my amazing family gives me a helping hand watching over our animal family members. My family knows my passion for animals is big and is helping me make my schedule more available to expand my pet experience. My availability days are weekdays M-F from 8:00am to 8:00pm and Saturday from 8:00am- 10:00pm. I am willing to do dog sitting overnight upon request. I can't wait to meet and care for your pet companions waiting for me to be their new friend. For pet caring at my home, I have a fence patio for outside enjoyment and a spacious living room with dog beds and a small crate if you would like to have them in a crate. For cats, I do have a cat tree, beds, litter boxes and an extra large litter box upon request. I also live near wonderful walking trails and the dog park where I currently take my dog for exercise and willing to provide this service. For the client's home, I am ready to feed, walk, and watch over your pets and willing to provide baths and give medicine upon request. I am ready to clean up after your pet if accidents occur in home. I do provide overnight sitting upon request.
About: I grew up on a farm with all different types of animals. I know how to care for all sizes of dogs and cats and am very comfortable around animals. I take my own dogs on many walks and I’ve volunteered at different animal sanctuaries so now I’m back home just looking to make a bit of extra money by offering some pet sitting, walking services. Please reach out if you need someone who will take good care of your babies.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Home Gardens
Ross took such amazing care of our senior girl as if she were his own. We were away for an entire week, and he made sure Leah was well cared for every day, walking her, playing with her, feeding her, and giving her plenty of love and attention. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands. We highly recommend Ross to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter for their furry family members while they’re away!

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 Home Gardens. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Home Gardens after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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 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.
