“We were going out of town for a few days so we needed someone to walk our dog while we were away. Amanda was nothing but amazing. She quickly responded with any questions I had and the photos she took were so great to see. The biggest win is that Phoebe (our 70lb American Staffordshire Terrier) loved being around Amanda. Everyone had such positive things to say about Amanda. We will definitely rebook in the future.”

About: I have years of taking care of my own cats and dogs and have taken care of animals with special needs. I have helped raise kittens and puppies and truly just enjoy my time with animals. I currently work virtually making my own schedule and have many breaks during the day so I am able to schedule myself around owners needs. I have a fenced in backyard for dogs and multiple bedroom house for cats and kittens to stay in. I keep a close eye on pets at all times and will take dogs on walks regularly.

“I had to find a last minute dog walker for Shabazz and Larisa responded promptly and accordingly. She was very nice and professional and took interest into Shabazz's routine as to try to carry on his typical walk schedule.She went above and beyond by suggesting she could check on him during the day as I was away on my work trip. I would definitely request Larisa again to walk Shabazz and most likely will inquire about overnight boarding since she gave vibes of a person who would take great care of your pet. Thanks Larisa!”

About: I've always loved dogs growing up and learned to train them since I also have smart and energetic dogs who need playtime, socialization, love, and discipline. I just quit my corporate job so I have a lot of time and flexibility to play with your dog, take them to the park, go for a walk, or simply keep them company. I can drive to your house for visits, walks, or take them to the park. I can also take them to my place for boarding or playtime. I have a huge fenced backyard and a fenced pool as well if you'd like your dog to swim, we can arrange for this as well. I have 2 friendly dogs who will also keep your dog company.

“I didn't see the "1 billion star" rating so 5 will have to do... Ann is amazing. When she first got to my place she was so excited to meet my pups- she was respectful of the boundaries I had in place ( my boys are jumpers when they’re excited)- which was greatly appreciated. She greeted them with open and loving arms and they instantly fell in love with her (both are rescues and tend to be skiddish at first). Ann told me about her history working with dogs and how she volunteers at a local rescue- which speaks VOLUMES to her passion and commitment to caring for all the fur babies. Ann was attentive and asked all the right questions to ensure she was going to care for them the way I do- which is super important, to me. She even went on a little walkie with us- which is great so I could show her the outdoor triggers (squirrels, cats, etc) and how I manage that. Being consistent is important ( as we all know) and Ann was on top of it! Ann is like a friend you haven't seen in years- I just connected right away with her. Our meet and greet went amazing, and I felt so confident leaving my boys with her while I was gone. She texted me updates and pics to further ease my mind, which I totally appreciated. I highly recommend Ann to watch your fur baby!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been something I’m incredibly passionate about! I have 20 years of experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities, including small and large dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens. Whether your pet is full of energy and loves to play or prefers to spend the day cuddled up on the couch, I’m happy to provide the love, attention, and care they deserve! I also have extensive experience administering medications to both dogs and cats, including oral pills, liquid medications, eye drops, ear drops, and injections. As a nursing student with a background in healthcare, I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining routines, and paying close attention to an animal’s health, behavior, and overall well being. I know how important it is to feel confident that your furry family members are in safe, loving, and reliable hands while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy all while giving you peace of mind! I’m currently a full-time nursing student, which gives me the flexibility to work pet care into my schedule around classes and clinicals! As a pet parent myself, caring for animals has always been a natural part of my daily routine. I have pets of my own, so I understand firsthand the love, attention, and responsibility that go into keeping our furry family members happy and healthy! I genuinely enjoy spending my free time with animals, whether it’s stopping by for feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration, or simply keeping your furry friend company. My availability varies throughout the week, but I’m always happy to communicate and coordinate schedules to make sure your pet receives the attention, love, and care they deserve! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I will always make an effort to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, whether that be specific feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or special care instructions. I’m experienced in caring for animals of different ages, sizes, personalities, and medical needs, including senior pets. When caring for pets in their own homes, I’m respectful of their environment and do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also believe communication is incredibly important, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and pictures for peace of mind! I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to create a positive, stress free experience for both pets and their owners as I know that’s what I would want if someone where watching my pets! 🐾

About: I have been an avid animal lover since the day I was born. I have always had dogs around and have been consistently relied upon by friends and family to help take care of theirs (much to my delight!). I have experience with cats, dogs, and more! I have cats currently, however, I have had dogs (from small to large !). I even worked at Petco and helped take care of the animals there !I took care of my golden retriever through some illnesses and have comfortability with medication as well. All that to say- I would love to get all the animal time in and be there to help take care of your extra family members :) I work remotely so if you need someone there for your buddy for long periods- I got you! I start work at 3pm so I can dedicate some extra quality time with them before that ! I want your and your pets to feel the upmost comfort and care with our time together - whether that’s through text updates, sending you photos or just setting clear goals for your pets during our time together !

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I adore all animals and really enjoy their company. Having two fur babies of my own I know the importance of having someone you trust take care of them. I would treat your pets as if they were my own. Pets are family and should be treated with love, compassion, and respect. I have taken care of animals of all ages. I can give medication if needed. I would love to spend time with your pets when you are not able to. I currently work part time from home and have a flexible schedule. I would have plenty of time to spoil your fur babies with walks and belly rubs. I can do doggy daycare and boarding almost any day and time as long as your dog is tolerant to other dogs and is up to date on vaccinations. Playtime, walks, snuggles, and whatever else your pups or cats needs are, I am more than happy to supply them with the love and attention they need while you are away.

About: I loved animals since I was young and have experience caring and sitting for them, whether it be dogs or cats. I have experience dog and cat sitting for my friends and family for years, and believe every animal should get the love and respect they deserve! As a dog mom to my own Maltipoo, Mochi, I treat every pet in my care with the same love, attention, and patience as I would my own :) * I have hands on experience administering insulin injections for diabetic cats. I have experience pet sitting for my friend's cat, Kiwi, such as changing her food and water bowls, cleaning out the litter box, and making sure to follow vet specific medication and insulin routines. * I have experience walking dogs of all breeds, from small pups to larger, stronger breeds. I make sure collar and leashes are secure before walking, and I am attentive to them during and after walks. * I ensure to follow feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, and household rules to keep your pet's routine consistent! I make sure to clean and change water and food bowls, clean up messes in the backyard and/or litter boxes, engage in lots of play times, and have experience giving dog baths when requested. * I pay close attention to each pet's body language, distinct personalities, and individual energy levels to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I also make sure to give speedy updates to owners with pictures and messages :) I currently have open and flexible availability and will do my best to adjust to your availability and schedule :) From mid-day walks to strict feeding times, I would be able to provide tailored pet care times. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. When caring for animals, I want to make sure they feel secured and well loved by double checking harnesses and collars before every walk and stay fully aware of our surroundings, adjusting my handling depending on your dog's size and energy. I also make sure to bring drinking water if requested. I also make sure all doors, gates, and windows are locked during visits so pets stay safe indoors, along with regular updates and photos during visits and/or walks!

About: My older brother and I live together while I am in graduate school. I have a dog, Zoey, and with her being my only baby, we love bringing dogs in to play with her and join us on hikes and beach days! Darius and I are huge dog lovers with 4 years of experience taking care of fur babies! We both work mostly from home and am home all day on weekends. I am in graduate school, but those are evening classes, so I am able to give the dogs a full day of love and play and dinner before popping into class. My brother is home when I am not, but we are often home together with the dogs. Darius is more athletic than I am so he’ll run with the pups and I’m more here for fetch and cuddles 🥰 In the warmer months, I hike and go to the beach on weekends about once a month, but I always bring Zoey! I go with my friends (one has a senior dog and one wishes she had a dog) so I always have a helper if you are okay with your dog joining! My pictures show one of Zoey’s repeat besties who goes with me hiking, on trails, and to the beaches often! I am a mama bear for my dog and her safety and We make it our mission to do the same for yours! I have a fenced yard and on walks use a gentle lead so that she can’t get too far or choke. I monitor feedings and keep any ingestion-prone toys and objects away from all pets.

About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes from less than 10lbs to dogs of 80+ lbs. I have always been the designated sitter for my friends and neighbors taking care of their dogs and cats when they go on vacation, sometimes last minute or for weeks at a time. I’m currently working part time at a restaurant which leaves me with free time all morning and day. I live a very active lifestyle and look forward to incorporating a bit of cardio every day into my routine. I’d love to have a buddy to keep me company on my walks. I have a lot of experience around dogs and have learned a lot about signals and reading signs. I’m patient and observant as well as highly responsible. I care for every pet as if they are my own with loving and kind attention.

About: I foster for a local vet and can bottle feed newborns, administer IV fluids and injectable medications. I have run my own doggy day care with 12+ dogs a day:) I’m currently freelancing and have a lot of extra time. I enjoy taking care of pets and take care of my own dogs each day, why not add another :) I have a fenced yard with 1 acre. There are 32 redwood trees in the yard to offer shade and plenty of places to play. I have three other dogs to keep your dog company but can easily keep them separate if need be. I feed twice a day but can do whatever is requested. We generally do potty breaks every 30-45 minutes and the longest I leave is four hours

Clifton was right on time to walk my dogs and was wonderful with them from start to finish. He handled getting their leashes on and off with ease, walked them for their designated time, and made sure they got plenty of exercise. They always seem to have such a wonderful time on their walks with Clifton! I appreciate that he takes the necessary safety precautions and makes sure my dogs are well cared for while they are out. He brought them home safe and sound, happy and well exercised. I will absolutely continue using Clifton as my designated dog walker. Highly recommend!

Fallon was wonderful with Ty Chi! She was available on short notice for two walks, which I really appreciated, and was very communicative throughout the entire process. She was punctual, professional, receptive to all of my instructions, and followed them carefully. She also has a genuinely kind and friendly personality, and I felt very comfortable trusting Ty Chi in her care. It was clear that she took the responsibility seriously while also being caring and attentive with him. I would absolutely recommend Fallon to other pet parents and would be happy to have her care for Ty Chi again!

FAQs for Dog Walking - La Riviera

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in La Riviera is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $38 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 3,920 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across La Riviera. 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 La Riviera. 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 La Riviera 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 La Riviera. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
