“Koko was AMAZING!!! My pup absolutely loved her, she sent me updates constantly (which really helped my dog mom anxiety!) and spent time with my girl giving her extra loves and cookies after their walks! I highly recommend :)”
About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life, and began pet sitting professionally 12 years ago. I've cared for both senior dogs and puppies, plus a wide variety of breeds and sizes. I've walked dogs at a local animal shelter. I have experience in socializing, potty training, and giving amazing head scratches. I love being outside, mini adventures to a park or trail, high-energy play time, and cuddling up with a fur baby and a good book. I'm a college student, so my schedule is very flexible! I'd like to care for pets throughout the week. I love taking walks and playing outside with dogs, and I love staying in with a cat and a book just as much! Depending on your pet's needs, I can stay home with them, walk them in their familiar area, or take them on a little adventure to a dog park or a quiet trail. All activities will be discussed and approved by you first!
“Kellin visits our pup on an ongoing basis during the week while we’re at work and we cannot recommend her enough! Our pup is elderly and requires specialized care, including support getting into and out of a wheelchair during walks and mealtime, unique food preparations, and more - all of which Kellin does graciously and with the same level of love and attention that we would. We’re so thankful to have her support and would recommend her to anyone!”
“My first time using this service and I'm very well satisfied .I lmost gave up after contacting several providers asking them how do I schedule a walk, after receiving never book replies. Carleigh with no hesitation answered all my questions. I booked Nala's first walk and will continue to use the service and will stay with Carleigh. Thanks”
“Shiyibian is great! Felix has a great time with her! She is always on time, takes great pictures, updates, and long walks. We are so lucky to have found her on this app.”
About: Hello, I’m Alex :)! I’m a lifelong pet owner and experienced rescue dog foster based in Los Angeles. Over the years, I have owned for a wide variety of breeds of all sizes, tiny Chiweenies and French Bulldogs, Goldendoodles, and gentle giant Bernese Mountain Dogs. While I love all dogs, I specialize in providing a patient, calm environment for rescue animals. Through my years of fostering, I have learned how to build trust with pups who have background trauma or severe anxiety. I know how to read animal body language, respect their boundaries, and gently help them feel safe and comfortable at their own pace. In addition to my lifelong experience with dogs, I am an avid cat lover. While I haven't owned a cat myself, I have successfully pet sat many and love making sure they get the perfect balance of playtime and space. Whether your pet is an outgoing social butterfly or a shy rescue who needs a patient touch, I will treat them like my own family. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule so we’ll have plenty of time with your pets! Available mornings, daytime, and evenings. I have a large car and can pick up your pets if you would like them to be driven around. I also have this reliable transportation to get to and from your house houses to come check on your pets :)
About: I'm a dog trainer with over 3 years of experience training and 9 years of experience in the pet care industry. I work with dogs with behavior issues, puppies, rescues, and have epxerience with pack walks. Much of my experieince is from dog walking, dog daycare, and dog training at Petco and with my own business. I used to work at Wags & Walks as the head trainer and have years of experience with rescues. I run my own dog training business, so I manage my own hours! I'm available Monday-Friday from 11-4PM for dog walking services. I offer private dog training sessions on weekends and weekday evenings from 6-8PM. I have a fenced in yard where your dogs will remain safe and always supervised. I use crates in the home to ensure your dog has a safe, comfortable space. I have my own personal dog Cappuccino who can help with proper socialization depending on the dog.
“Patrick was the best! He agreed to run my dog not just walk him for an hour every day! It was worth every penny when I saw how happy and tired my dog was when they’d get back from a run! My dog Chunk loved Patrick and would sit watching the door waiting to see him! Patrick is awesome and I will use him every time I come to LA! U need to hire this man and u will be very happy with his work!”
“Lizette came over last minute- same day request and amazing communication. My dog is a chihuahua and barks but did well and i was happy that lizett handled her well and i came home to a happy pup.”
About: I've been both around and responsible for all sorts of animals since very early childhood. Animals gravitate to me - no seriously, I was just hand-feeding a bunch of squirrels and my friend has dubbed me their dog's emotional support human. I am not intimidated by any animals, even the ones who are "tougher to handle" or who need a lot of extra love and support. I do know how to give meds to most common pets, however that must be discussed and will only be done with written consent. If you want your pet to be treated like the purrson they are, you will not find anyone more naturally qualified. I have a dog who recently lost his best friend in the whole world, my other dog who was with me her and his whole lives. Right now, he needs my love and support heavily in the mornings. I'm open to discussing morning walks/visits if they are very local. Otherwise, this is part of my daily routine anyway so adding more animal faces to my day sounds like a win to me! I'll make sure to engage in specified activities and walks, adhere to all feeding instructions (including treats). Have a problem pup/ tough walker? I am great at finding alternative activities to tire your baby/babies out. Have multiple dogs that sometimes snap at each other? No problem. I'm not afraid to breakup tiffs. If your dogs all out brawl, just give me the courtesy of talking about it with me before booking.
“Rachel is a gem of a sitter and walker on Rover! She sends detailed updates and amazing quality glamour shots photos (how does she take such great photos?!!). She’s super reliable, easy to coordinate with and always on time. Highly highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. Recently lost my little man (terrier, Franklin) of 18.5 years and would love some canine company to fill the void. I work from home and have a very flexible day, perfect for walkies and outdoor playtime in my secure fenced backyard! I work from home with a very flexible schedule! Would have plenty of time for walks and playtime out in my fenced yard. Park nearby for long walks in a nice neighborhood. Safe and lovely neighbors. I’ve had varying breeds of dogs my entire life so I know how to care for varying ages from pup to senior. My senior baby just passed, he was 18.5 years old (carrying, diaper changes, etc) I’m comfortable with whatever your pet needs. I’ll provide a comfortable air conditioned home for hot summer days, a quiet environment for long naps and a secure fenced backyard for supervised sunning and playtime. Will carve time for a few leashed walks in my neighborhood and View Park is right near me for some great squirrel watching :) lots of scritches and cuddles too!
About: Hi, I’m Pam! I only board one guest dog at a time, so your pup gets lots of individual attention in a calm home environment. My own dog, Butter, is a friendly 8 lb Pomeranian who loves having a playmate. I’ve had dogs for more than 25 years and raised my chiweenie, Cannoli, through age 17. Caring for her gave me hands-on experience with senior dogs, medications, and the extra patience and attention older dogs sometimes need. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day for companionship, playtime, walks and potty breaks. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel less like they’re being boarded and more like they’re staying in a second home. Dogs have always been part of my life and family. I raised my chiweenie, Cannoli, through age 17, and I’m still the person who stops to help a stray dog wandering the neighborhood get safely home. These days, Butter, my friendly 8 lb Pomeranian, is part of our family too. I work from home, which means your dog gets plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, potty breaks, playtime and plenty of hanging out together. I offer both overnight boarding and daytime care, with drop-off and pick-up generally available between 7am–9pm. I have a fully fenced yard and only board one guest dog at a time, along with my own friendly 8 lb Pomeranian, Butter. My home is smoke-free, alcohol-free and air-conditioned, with comfortable indoor spaces for relaxing and separate areas for meals.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I got my first dog when I was 9 years old. In college, I was responsible for taking care of my roommates dog, which included daily walks, feeding, and baths. After graduating, I volunteered at my local animal shelter as a dog walker and would occasionally foster a dog as well. I have my own little pup, Roo, who is a 1 year old Aussiedoodle who has my heart. Animals bring so much joy and love into our lives and deserve to be looked after with love and care. I am currently working full time in a remote position. My work schedule is very flexible, so I can give your pet the attention they need. My apartment has a small yard that we use to let our dog lounge when we are relaxing at home. We are in a great area, and frequently walk our dog along the bike path. As for taking care of your pet in your own home, I am big on respecting other peoples’ space and am a very clean and organized person.
About: I’m an animal lover who enjoys providing pets with attention, companionship, exercise, and a safe environment. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats with different personalities and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs. I also have experience with more unique pets and larger animals, as well as high-energy and active breeds that require extra exercise, structure, and engagement. I especially enjoy active dogs who love walks, hiking, playing, and exploring outdoors. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and always focused on making pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, house rules, and any special requests from pet parents. My goal is to treat every pet like they are part of the family while giving their owners peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time outdoors, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I enjoy hiking, exploring nature, gardening, and staying active, which makes getting outside with dogs something I genuinely look forward to. I’m also comfortable spending quiet time with pets at home, whether that means relaxing, playing, keeping them company, or following their normal routine. I’m tech-savvy and organized, so I’m comfortable communicating with pet parents, keeping track of schedules, and providing updates and photos. I’ll work with each owner to make sure their pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, behavior, feeding schedule, and specific needs before providing care. During walks and outdoor activities, I stay attentive and make sure pets are supervised and kept secure at all times. I also have a background in security and have been vetted by high-profile clients, which has strengthened my awareness, responsibility, and attention to detail when it comes to safety and trust. In a client’s home, I respect their space, follow instructions carefully, and keep the environment clean and safe. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a pet and access to your home, so I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, communicative, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so pet parents know how their pets are doing.

Maya is great with our Boston Terrier, Pablo! She’s super communicative, chill and obviously loves and cares for animals. I’ve been traveling a lot for work and felt totally comfortable knowing she was taking care of our little guy. She’ll definitely be my go to whenever we need someone to take care of Pablo. Highly recommend her!
Excellent dog walker! Rhoda was reliable, showed up exactly as scheduled, and had great communication when I had questions. She has experience with large dogs and excellent dog skills. She was very patient and understanding with my dog. I felt completely comfortable having her walk our dog.
It became obvious within seconds of meeting Puddle that Julia has a way with dogs. Puddle was all smiles when he got back from his walk and then immediately splooted and had a long nap. Julia was communicative, organized, and professional. Puddle can’t wait for his next walk!

The average cost for Dog Walking in Ladera Heights on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 19,796 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ladera Heights. 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 your Ladera Heights. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Ladera Heights.

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 Ladera Heights. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
