About: Experienced Vet Tech • Animal Caregiver I’ve been working with animals since 2017, beginning as a manager at a boarding, daycare, and grooming facility in Livermore, where I also cared for Alameda County Sheriff’s animals. Every temperament I met taught me something new and ultimately led me into veterinary medicine in 2019. Since then, I’ve worked in veterinary hospitals throughout Danville/Blackhawk, Fremont, and Pleasanton. After years in vet med, I’ve realized what I love most is simply caring for the animals themselves. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet—their quirks, routines, personalities, and what makes them feel safe and comfortable. I have a knack for connecting with animals and making sure their individual needs are understood and met. Most of the animals I meet end up becoming little friends of mine. The occasional possum or feral cat may not be quite as convinced, but I promise I’ll still give them my very best. ❤️ Your pet will be cared for with the experience, patience, and genuine love I would want for my own. I am taking a step back from my career and pursuit of Veterinary Medicine. I would like to get to the basics of what I know and love so very much. Caring for and spending time with each animal. Making sure they get the care they deserve, and so much more. I like continue with each animals normal routine. If they like to lay out in the sun for a few hours, that’s what we will do. If they want to play fetch until nap time, consider it done. If we want to go for a run through the neighborhood or a walk on a nearby trail, I’m ready to go.

I live with my elderly father who enjoys meeting new doggy friends. 24 hr supervision since I work remotely! I’m an early riser and enjoy morning walks. Your doggy will recieve a good amount of outdoor time and have an active and stimulating day. I’m comfortable with your dog sleeping in bed with me but respect if you prefer them to sleep in a crate. I work remotely so I have no issue staying at your house as well!

About: 🐾Love By Pets. Recommended by humans. Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, temperaments, and care levels. Improving the lives of animals is my passion. Every pet that enters my care is treated like family, receiving the same love, patience, respect, protection and individualized attention I would want for my own beloved pets. Whether you have a puppy, a fragile senior, a pregnant or nursing mother, a shy rescue, or a pet with medical, behavioral, or anxiety-related challenges, I provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, enriching, stress-free and FUN experience that allows pets to thrive while giving their owners complete peace of mind. ✨ Experience Includes: • All ages. Puppies, kittens (bottle feeding ok 👍🏻), seniors, and hospice care • Pregnant animals and nursing mothers • Medication administration and specialized care plans • Medical, behavioral, and anxiety-related conditions • Fearful, reactive, rescue, and special-needs pets • Giant breeds (120–200+ lbs), toy breeds, and everything in between • Bully breeds, guardian breeds, working dogs, and high-drive breeds • Exotic and specialty felines • Birds, reptiles, and small animals • Multi-pet households My experience extends far beyond traditional pet sitting. I have spent years working with animal rescues and participating in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and community cat programs, helping care for and advocate for vulnerable animals. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, trust-building, and how to safely handle pets with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds. I have also been honored to participate in efforts supporting families through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, including helping facilitate meaningful visits for children whose wish was to spend time with animals and pets. These experiences further strengthened my commitment to compassion, reliability, and providing comfort during life’s most meaningful moments. Caring for others—both human and animal—is at the heart of everything I do. Communication is one of my highest priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your family member is safe, happy, and loved. 💗 What Makes My Care Different? • Personalized, one-on-one attention for the duration  • Flexible and accommodating scheduling • Solo daycare available upon request • Extended stays welcome • Customized routines tailored to your pet • Calm, loving, family-oriented environment • Experience with pets requiring advanced handling skills • Care from someone who genuinely loves animals and understands their individual needs Many of my clients become long-term members of my pet-care family. I’m proud to have earned the trust of repeat clients who rely on me to care for everything from tiny teacups and exotic pets to giant breeds, working dogs, bully breeds, seniors, rescues, and pets with complex medical or behavioral needs. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That’s why I focus on building trust, maintaining open communication, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, understood, and loved from the moment they arrive. I look forward to welcoming your furry, feathered, or scaly family member and giving them the same level of care, compassion, and attention I would give my own. Because every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve family. 🐾💕 My schedule revolves around pet care already. Caring for animals has been a major part of my daily life for many years through pet care/sitting/walking etc, animal rescue work, and caring for my own pets. While your pet is with me, this is their time and all of my focus and attention is on them for the duration of the booking. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, companionship, medication administration when needed, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a flexible schedule, or specialized care, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to each animal’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, fears, quirks, and any special instructions. Owner guidance and instructions are key to providing the best possible booking and any information provided will be followed closely (and greatly appreciated!).  One thing that sets my care apart is that I do not use kennels or crates unless they are already part of your pet’s normal routine and you specifically request it. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and at home—not confined unnecessarily. For families looking for a more personalized experience, I also offer accommodations such as Private Doggy Daycare, Private Kitty Daycare, Private Canine Camp, and Private Kitty Camp, where your pet can be the only guest in my care for the duration of their stay. I am always happy to discuss special requests and customize care whenever possible. Whether caring for a tiny breed, a giant breed, a working dog, a bully breed, a senior pet, or a rescue animal with unique needs, safety, comfort, and individualized attention always come first.

About: With four years of experience working with puppies, I have developed a deep understanding and genuine love for these delightful companions. My approach to pet care emphasizes building a strong bond with each puppy, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy. I am dedicated to providing personalized attention and creating a fun, nurturing environment where every puppy can thrive. Being around dogs brings me immense joy, and I consider it a privilege to be their friend and caretaker. Working from home allows me to have a flexible schedule with plenty of spare time to dedicate to puppy care. I also have a puppy of my own who is under my care 24/7, so I'm always present to tend to your pups as well. This constant presence ensures that your puppies will receive the attention, love, and care they need throughout the day. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets. I ensure they have plenty of playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation to keep them happy and healthy. Fresh water, nutritious meals, and cozy resting areas are always available. I also maintain a routine that includes regular potty breaks, walks, and lots of affectionate attention. With constant supervision and a puppy-friendly home setup, I make sure every pet feels welcomed and well-cared-for.

About: It has been said to me that my first words as a child were ... barking! While I don't remember that, I do remember always having a connection with all furry companions. I grew up with dogs and cats and on occasion would visit my great grandparents' ranch, with horses, goats and more. I loved giving the animals snacks. More recently, I moved onto a small farm. I helped take care of over a dozen chickens and 2 turkeys; feeding, watering, cleaning the coop. My formal career experience has been in education. In addition to many childcare and classroom support jobs, I also taught public school for 5 years. In either environment, my natural tendency is using my natural empathy to provide personalized care. I am not only a sitter on Rover, but have used the service myself to board my cat before. I know what it's like to leave your baby in someone else's hands! Please communicate specifically to me so that we can rest assured all needs are met for your beloved pet(s). I will treat your furry family member like I would want mine to be treated - patiently, attentively, carefully and lovingly - and only ask that you communicate any expectations or other information clearly and thoroughly. I may ask a lot of questions to clarify, and welcome any of yours! (Además soy bilingüe ❤️) I currently update my schedule on a week-by-week basis. I work part-time as an in-home Instructor for developmentally disabled adults. This is only during weekdays. My availability will vary due to the unique schedule of that job. For example, if a client has a cold, that would be a cancellation on short notice, which would allow me to be available with Rover. So far I've had sufficient flexibility to pet sit and especially housesit in the area. I will reply to your request ASAP and we can go from there. Thank you! For this reason, I prefer to fill my schedule on a day-to-day basis, or at least weekly. I'm happy to answer any questions about specifics, so there is no confusion. Naturally, I'll provide the same consideration I'd expect from someone taking care of my home or pet. Most owners have written instructions down and that has been helpful. I tend to note things down myself, even if they're very simple, just to assure that they are not forgotten. I'll be detail oriented, focused, careful and respectful.

About: I've had pets my whole life from lizards, snack, rats, chinchillas, fish. dogs, cats, even chickens! Our animals are apart of our family and treated as such. We even delivered our own puppies and kittens before. We love to walk and stroll with our big dogs and let our chinchillas perch and catch sun up high. Having experience with so many pets makes us the best fit for any circumstance. Right now we are able to care for pets at night or mainly on the weekends. Usually during the week we are full time workers as well but having our animals crate trained and living close allows us to be home and play often. They would also travel with us to any destination. I can easily crate your dog if that's what you choose, otherwise they have freedom of the house. We do potty breaks every hour and have at least 1-2 long walks a day ranging from 30-45 minutes depending on age and dogs energy level. We feed them based on customer request and like to give them love and treats as often as one lets us. We go to the park daily as well which entails our furry dog friends to come. They always love park time.

About: I love dogs! I’ve grown up around dogs all my life. I currently have a lazy English Bulldog, and a high energy Retriever mix! Long hikes are a hobby of mine, so we do lots of walking on our own. I have developed a skill of listening to my pets when they are tired or hot and ready to call it quits on a walk. I can walk more heat-sensitive dogs while listening to their needs, and I can walk high energy dogs until they’re ready for a nap. Your dog and I will become best friends by the time our walk is over. Anytime any day! I am very flexible, and willing to work on any time frame. I spend a lot of time at home and walking the dogs. I have a fenced yard and we love to play! Lots of walks and lots of water with this heat! And always time to cuddle in our house!

About: Animals have always been a part of my life, so caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I’ve worked with rescues, fostered dogs, and recently rescued a pup of my own after moving to the Sacramento area. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and needs. I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own, with patience, love, attention, and plenty of affection. As a fellow animal mom, my goal is to make your loved one feel safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I currently work from home, which gives me the flexibility to make pet care a natural part of my daily routine. Since I have a dog of my own, my days already include regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I’m able to adjust my schedule based on each dog’s individual routine and needs, making sure they receive consistent care, companionship, and love throughout the day. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and individual routine. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, medications or special instructions closely and make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I have a flexible schedule, so pets are rarely left alone for long periods. I also have a friendly pup of my own and make sure any introductions are done thoughtfully so everyone feels safe and comfortable.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Isleton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Isleton is $18 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $20 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 3,886 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Isleton. 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 Isleton. 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 Isleton after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Isleton. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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 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.
