About: I specialize in adaptability. I do my best to meet your pet where they’re at in terms of energy level and follow their routine so as to keep them feeling loved and content while you’re away. Whether they want to be spoiled with attention or just have a peaceful lap on which to doze, I’m here to be your emotional support friend’s emotional support friend Providing pet care on Rover helps me fill in my part-time work to provide for my family, including my own sweet little fur baby My main goal caring for your pet at their home is to keep their routine and environment as consistent as it can be with your absence. I believe the best way to minimize a pet’s stress response to a change in their environment is to try to keep everything around that change as familiar as possible.

About: (Please be sure to select your dates first to verify my availability.) Recently retired. I have owned dogs my whole life and love their company. My wife and I have a large house with a small lawn in the back yard and nearby is big, beautiful Griffith Park in Claremont that invites lots of walking, running and playing space in a very safe neighborhood. I can devote much of the day to the care and welfare of dogs. I take daily walks for myself and they would be much more enjoyable with a dog. My wife and I love dogs and shower them with affection and care. Lots of safe play space, indoors and out, in a dog-friendly neighborhood. (Sorry, no dogs on beds or furniture but they’ll receive all the love and attention they need.)

Along with years of personal experience, I frequently volunteer at my local animal shelter which has given me hands on experience.

I provide safe, clean, and loving care in your home or mine while following all routines, feeding, exercise, and medication needs. It is important to me to keep your pet comfortable and happy while you’re away.

About: I've cared for dogs and cats for many years and understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after them. I'm comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, medication, senior pets and pets with special needs. I have experience caring for a blind and hard-of-hearing dog, and I recently completed a weeklong cat and house-sitting stay. I'm attentive to routines and instructions and want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I'm retired, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with your pets and keep their routine consistent while you're away. I follow feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter or potty routine, and any special instructions carefully. I'm dependable, respectful of your home, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are comfortable and well cared for. Your pet's safety and comfort are my priority. I follow your instructions closely, including feeding, medications, walks, doors and gates, and any special routines or restrictions. I'm careful when entering and leaving the home and will never let a pet outside unsecured. I also respect your home and keep things clean and secure while you're away. Because I'm retired, I have the flexibility to give your pets plenty of attention and not rush their care.

About: I am an avid dog lover and have been working with dogs, cats, horses and pocket pets for over 25 years. My degree is in animal behavior and management and I currently manage a busy animal hospital. I have been blessed to be able to stay in my field and do what I love for so long. I love exercising so walking dogs is a win/win for me!! I get to love on them and workout at the same time! I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and love that I can provide amazing service to my my fellow animal loving community. I treat all pets in my care as if they were my own fur babies. When you do what you love, it's not really work! I currently manage a busy animal hospital so my availability is limited to early mornings, evenings and weekends. I schedule may be adjusted from time to time. I am only set up to accommodate small dogs that get along with other dogs in my home at this time. I prefer to care for pets in their own home.

About: I have been dog trainer for 8 years, I have a passion for working with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and sizes! I have experience working, walking, and caring for many pups throughout all of those years and would love to continue to expand my experience with your furry friend! I am currently working part time. I was previously working for a company as a dog trainer, but have since left to launch my own path! I have experience in understanding the time that is needed for dog care amongst busy life demands! On set days weekly, I have dedicated to growing my experience, spending hands on time with more dogs, and being your helpful paw so you can have peace of mind that your furry friend’s needs are being met! Due to my experience, I understand how to access a dog’s body language and will have the tools necessary to make sure they are comfortable. I have had many instances of entering a pup’s home for the first time, I have the skills required to ensure that they remain safe and comfortable in their homes or on walks. Every dog is individual and moves at a different pace. I understand how to properly fit dogs for an assortment of collars and harnesses, making sure your dog is secure before leaving the house! I also have the experience to properly manage off leash dog situations, dogs with reactivity issues, or even a dog who just isn’t the best on leash! I will work with pet parents to tailor their pups dog walking or drop in experience.

“Zoe was amazing with my boy Ace! We first met in person at my apartment where she got to meet Ace. Ace loves her at first sniff lol! We took a tour and got to know one another. Even before that I could tell Zoe was just a beautiful soul before we met. She was so nice to take care of Ace at my last minute request. She sent pictures, took him for nice long walks and communicated with me very well while I was away. I’m definitely going to use her for future boarding, walking and house sitting!”

About: I’ve been a dog groomer for 3 years now. I treat every dog like family, not just a booking. My calm, patient energy helps shy or anxious pups settle in fast, and I’m great at reading body language so they always feel safe. What sets me apart: Puppy training support - I’ll keep up with your potty routine, crate training, and basic commands like sit, stay, and leash manners so your young dog stays on track while you’re away. Senior dog care - I’m experienced with slower walks, medication schedules, joint-friendly play, and extra TLC for older dogs who need more comfort and attention. Photo updates + communication - You’ll get regular pics and updates because I know peace of mind matters. Whether you’ve got a playful puppy or a mellow senior, I’ll match their energy and give them the same care I’d give my own dog. Can’t wait to meet your pup! 🐾 I’m a dog groomer, working Tuesday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM. I’m also available after-hours if needed. My days off are Sunday and Monday, and I’m available all day on those days. I provide structured, reliable care in your home by following your dog’s exact routine for feeding, exercise, medication, and rest. I adapt my approach based on age and temperament — reinforcing training for puppies and offering gentle, patient support for senior dogs. I maintain a clean, secure environment and provide daily photo updates with clear communication. I also respect your home and can assist with basic tasks like mail collection and plant care upon request.

About: I've always had a special connection with animals. My dogs and cats have been rescued, not from a pound but have come to me either from the streets or random place. Had a mixed Rottweiler pup who followed me one rainy night, named him Lucky. Another rainy night years later a kitten followed me to my door, named her Pandora. Rescued a cat from inside a car hood once. Found an injured red cheeked parrot on the sidewalk, who I brought back to health and released back with its flock. They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks, I say with a little patience and lots of love you can teach any animal something new. I have had parents who's dog isn't so social walk up to me, sniff and ask to be pet. The parent telling me they don't EVER do that. Wouldn't mind a crazy active dog, love to stay active by walking around our beautiful parks. My week is pretty flexible I have a lot of free time on my paws. So your children will be very well looked after, they might get annoyed with having me around so much. Have a small yard that has a very small brick wall. I know the importance of safety and always having dog on leash. In-home in or out of crate is fine. And home visits whatever the owner is comfortable with.

About: Our family has lived with and loved dogs for years. Six years ago, we adopted Loki, a 5-month-old puppy from the shelter, and he has been part of the family ever since. Caring for him every day has taught us what pets truly need: patience, routine, and a lot of love. Loki is walked four to five times a day, so we understand how much dogs look forward to their time outside and how hard it is for them to be home alone, especially puppies. I care for pets together with my parents, so there is always someone at home to give your pet attention. We know how to comfort a nervous pet and make them feel safe in a new place. Whether you need a walk, a feeding visit at your home, or a warm place for your pet to stay while you're away, we will treat them like family. My parents are retired and home most of the day, and I help with care as well, so your pet will never be left alone for long. We offer daily walks, feeding visits at your home, and boarding at our home, including overnight and longer stays. Because Loki already goes out several times a day, adding your dog to our routine is easy and natural. Just let us know what works for you, and we'll do our best to make it happen. Our home is quiet, calm, and full of love. We have a small yard where pets can play and stretch their legs safely, and someone is always home to supervise. Loki is a friendly, gentle companion who is used to having people around, and we'd be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so you and your pet can see how we all get along. Your pet will get plenty of attention, regular walks, fresh water, and meals on your schedule. We'll send you photos and updates so you never have to worry while you are away. Your pet's safety and happiness are our top priority, and we'd be honored to care for them like our own.

About: I am a college student who is home for summer, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I’ve had dogs all my life. My family dog I’ve had all my life is deaf and pretty blind, so I’ve got experience taking care of older or disabled dogs. I should be available anytime during the day, and depending on the day I could house sit overnight. I am not working any jobs currently and am very available. I am able to adapt to different environments quickly, so if you give me a rundown on how you want things to be done around your home, I’ll make sure to listen well and house sit accordingly. My number one priority when I take care of dogs is their health and safety, my number two priority is for them to have fun!

About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and currently have a pug of my own who I care for every day. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, keeping up with routines, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’ve also helped care for pets belonging to family and friends, so I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and will always treat your pet with the same care I give my own. I have a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I’m available throughout the week, with the exception of Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1–4 PM. Outside of those hours, I’m flexible for walks, drop ins, and pet care, and I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I have a secure, fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, as well as a crate available if your pet is crate-trained or more comfortable having their own space. I also have two friendly dogs who are easygoing and can provide great company for pets who enjoy being around other dogs. I’ll always follow each owner’s instructions and respect their pet’s individual routine, personality, and boundaries. Whether your pet is in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, they’ll receive plenty of supervision, attention, and care in a safe and welcoming environment.

Currently working part time and have plenty of free time to look after pets. I typically have most afternoons available as I work early mornings. I have previously done house sitting for friends and clients. These include regular safety checks, watering plants, and of course seeing to the pet’s needs.

I got called in for an overnight shift very last minute and I wasn’t able to walk my dog before I left. I wasn’t a little skeptical about Rover, but after finding Mia through mutals on social media and seeing her veterinary background, I felt so at ease. When I checked my blink camera, my dog Cairo was tucked in bed with his favorite blanket. I will be booking again. 🫶🏼

FAQs for Dog Walking - La Verne

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in La Verne is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $34 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 17,077 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across La Verne. 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 Verne. 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 Verne 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 Verne. On Rover:

  • 86% 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.
